OVERVIEW
Time Warner is a leading media and entertainment company whose major businesses encompass an array of the most respected and successful media brands. Among the Companys brands are TNT, TBS, CNN, HBO, Cinemax, Warner Bros., New Line Cinema, People , Sports Illustrated and Time . During the six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company generated Revenues of $13.723 billion (essentially flat from $13.713 billion in 2011), Operating Income of $2.310 billion (down 9% from $2.536 billion in 2011), Net Income attributable to Time Warner shareholders of $1.013 billion (down 22% from $1.291 billion in 2011) and Cash provided by operations from continuing operations of $759 million (down 13% from $868 million in 2011).
Time Warner Businesses
Time Warner classifies its operations into three reportable segments: Networks, Film and TV Entertainment and Publishing. For additional information regarding Time Warners segments, refer to Note 13, Segment Information, in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Effective for the first quarter of 2012, the Company changed the name of its Filmed Entertainment reportable segment to Film and TV Entertainment. This change did not affect the composition of the segment; accordingly, all prior period financial information related to this reportable segment was unaffected.
Networks. Time Warners Networks segment consists of Turner Broadcasting System, Inc. (Turner) and Home Box Office, Inc. (Home Box Office). During the six months ended June 30, 2012, the Networks segment recorded Revenues of $7.200 billion (52% of the Companys total Revenues) and $2.117 billion in Operating Income.
Turner operates domestic and international networks, including such recognized brands as TNT, TBS, truTV, CNN and Cartoon Network, which are among the leaders in advertising-supported television networks. The Turner networks generate revenues principally from providing programming to affiliates that have contracted to receive and distribute this programming and from the sale of advertising. Turner also provides online and mobile offerings for on demand viewing of programs on its networks and live streaming of its CNN and HLN networks to authenticated subscribers. Turner also operates various websites, including CNN.com , NCAA.com , NASCAR.com and CartoonNetwork.com , that generate revenues principally from the sale of advertising and sponsorships.
Home Box Office operates the HBO and Cinemax multi-channel premium pay television services, with the HBO service ranking as the most widely distributed domestic multi-channel premium pay television service. HBO and Cinemax pay television subscribers also have access to the authenticated HBO GO and MAX GO streaming services, respectively, on various online and mobile platforms. Home Box Office generates revenues principally from providing programming to affiliates that have contracted to receive and distribute such programming to their customers who subscribe to the HBO or Cinemax services. An additional source of revenues for Home Box Office is the sale and licensing of its original programming, including Game of Thrones , True Blood and Boardwalk Empire .
During the six months ended June 30, 2012, Turner completed the shutdown of its general entertainment network, Imagine, in India, and made the decision to close its TNT television operations in Turkey as a result of the failure to meet performance and growth objectives and after a strategic review completed during the second quarter of 2012 (collectively, the Imagine and TNT Turkey Shutdowns). For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company recognized $163 million and $221 million, respectively, of charges related to the Imagine and TNT Turkey Shutdowns. These shutdowns will allow the Company to redirect its resources toward opportunities with stronger growth prospects. See Transactions and Other Items Affecting Comparability as well as Note 2, Asset Dispositions, to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for further information.
The Company still anticipates that international expansion will continue to be an area of focus at the Networks segment for the foreseeable future.
Film and TV Entertainment. Time Warners Film and TV Entertainment segment consists of businesses managed by the Warner Bros. Entertainment Group (Warner Bros.) that principally produce and distribute theatrical motion pictures, television shows and videogames. During the six months ended June 30, 2012, the Film and TV Entertainment segment recorded Revenues of $5.398 billion (36% of the Companys total Revenues) and $348 million in Operating Income.

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION (Continued)
The Film and TV Entertainment segments theatrical product revenues are generated principally through rentals from theatrical exhibition of films, including the following recently released films: The Dark Knight Rises , Journey 2: The Mysterious Island, Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows , Wrath of the Titans , Magic Mike and Project X , and subsequently through licensing fees received from the distribution of films on television networks and pay television programming services. Television product revenues are generated principally from the licensing of programs to television networks and pay television programming services. The segment also generates revenues for both its theatrical and television product through home video distribution on DVD and Blu-ray Discs and in various digital formats (e.g., electronic sell-through and video-on-demand). In addition, the segment generates revenues through the distribution of videogames.
Warner Bros. continues to be an industry leader in the television content business. For the 2012-2013 broadcast season, Warner Bros. expects to produce more than 30 scripted primetime series, with at least one series for each of the five broadcast networks (including 2 Broke Girls, The Big Bang Theory , Fringe , The Mentalist , The Middle , Mike & Molly , Person of Interest , Two and a Half Men and Vampire Diaries ) and original series for cable television networks (including Major Crimes , Pretty Little Liars , Rizzoli & Isles , Dallas and Southland ). Internationally, Warner Bros. operates a group of local television production companies in the U.K. and the Netherlands that focus on developing non-scripted programs and formats that can be sold internationally and adapted for sale in the U.S. Warner Bros. has also begun to create locally produced versions of programs owned by the studio and to develop original local television programming.
The distribution of DVDs has been one of the largest contributors to the segments revenues and profits over the last decade. However, in recent years, home video revenues have declined as a result of several factors, including consumers shifting to subscription rental services and discount rental kiosks, which generate significantly less revenue per transaction for the Company than DVD sales; the general economic downturn in the U.S. and many regions around the world; increasing competition for consumer discretionary time and spending; piracy; and the maturation of the standard definition DVD format. Reduced consumer spending on DVDs is being partially offset by growing sales of high definition Blu-ray Discs and increased sales through electronic delivery (particularly video-on-demand), which have higher incremental gross margins than standard definition DVDs. The decline in consumer spending on DVDs is also being partially offset by the licensing of theatrical and television content to subscription video-on-demand providers.
Publishing. Time Warners Publishing segment consists principally of Time Inc.s magazine publishing and related websites, book publishing businesses and marketing services businesses. During the six months ended June 30, 2012, the Publishing segment recorded Revenues of $1.631 billion (12% of the Companys total Revenues) and $93 million in Operating Income.
As of June 30, 2012, Time Inc. published 21 magazines in the U.S., including People , Sports Illustrated and Time , and over 70 magazines outside the U.S. All 21 of Time Inc.s U.S. magazines are available as tablet editions. The Publishing segment generates revenues primarily from the sale of advertising, magazine subscriptions and newsstand sales. During the first half of 2012, the publishing industry continued to experience both secular and economic challenges, which negatively impacted print advertising and newsstand sales.
From the fourth quarter of 2010 through the first quarter of 2012, Turner managed the SI.com and Golf.com websites, including selling the advertising for the websites, and in exchange Time Inc. received a license fee from Turner. In the second quarter of 2012, Time Inc. assumed management of these websites from Turner and, with the transfer, Time Inc. now sells the advertising for these websites and no longer receives a license fee from Turner. This change did not affect the Companys consolidated results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012.
Recent Developments
2012 Debt Offering
On June 13, 2012, Time Warner issued $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of debt securities from its shelf registration statement. See Financial Condition and Liquidity Outstanding Debt and Other Financing Arrangements for more information.

The increase in Subscription revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 was primarily related to an increase at the Networks segment. Advertising revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 were essentially flat as an increase at the Networks segment was offset by a decrease at the Publishing segment. The decrease in Content revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 was due primarily to a decrease at the Film and TV Entertainment segment. The increase in Other revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 was primarily related to an increase at the Film and TV Entertainment segment.

OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION (Continued)
The increase in Subscription revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 was primarily due to an increase in domestic subscription revenues of $104 million and $197 million, respectively, reflecting higher subscription rates.
The increase in Advertising revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 reflected domestic growth of $42 million and $100 million, respectively, mainly due to higher pricing and the timing of certain sports events.
The decrease in Content revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 was due primarily to lower licensing revenues, including lower licensing of original programming for the six months ended June 30, 2012.
The components of Costs of revenues for the Networks segment are as follows (millions):

The increase in Costs of revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 was driven by higher programming costs. The increase in programming costs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 primarily reflected higher costs for originals and sports programming mainly due to the timing of certain sports events. The increase for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was also due in part to a $37 million impairment related to the cancellation of an original series.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, Selling, general and administrative expenses increased due primarily to $20 million and $26 million, respectively, of exit and other transaction costs related to the Imagine and TNT Turkey Shutdowns.
As previously noted under Transactions and Other Items Affecting Comparability, the results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 reflect the charges incurred in connection with the Imagine and TNT Turkey Shutdowns, including $127 million and $179 million, respectively, primarily related to certain receivables, including value added tax receivables, inventories and long-lived assets, including Goodwill, and $20 million and $26 million, respectively, of exit and other transaction costs as noted above.
Operating Income decreased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 primarily due to the charges incurred in connection with the Imagine and TNT Turkey Shutdowns. In addition, the decrease in Operating Income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 reflected higher Costs of revenues, partially offset by higher Revenues.

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION (Continued)
For the three months ended June 30, 2012, theatrical product revenues from theatrical film decreased due to lower revenues from theatrical films released in the current quarter of $175 million, offset partially by higher carryover revenues from theatrical films released in prior periods of $51 million. There were six theatrical films released in the second quarter of 2012 as compared to five in the second quarter of 2011. For the six months ended June 30, 2012, theatrical product revenues from theatrical film decreased principally due to lower carryover revenues from theatrical films released in prior periods of $40 million. There were ten theatrical films released in the first half of both 2012 and 2011.
For the three months ended June 30, 2012, theatrical product revenues from home video and electronic delivery decreased due to lower revenues from releases in the current quarter of $176 million and lower revenues of $46 million from prior period releases, including catalog. There were seven home video and electronic delivery releases in the second quarter of 2012 as compared to six in the second quarter of 2011. For the six months ended June 30, 2012, theatrical product revenues from home video and electronic delivery decreased due to lower revenues from releases in the current quarter of $230 million and lower revenues of $71 million from prior period releases, including catalog. There were 12 home video and electronic delivery releases in the first half of 2012 as compared to 11 in the first half of 2011.
The increase in television product revenues from licensing for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 included higher revenues from initial telecasts of $49 million and $128 million, respectively, mainly as a result of higher fees for certain series, as well as the timing of network deliveries. The remaining increase of $138 million and $142 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively, was primarily related to the initial cable television network availability of The Mentalist in 2012.
The increase in television product revenues from home video and electronic delivery for the three months ended June 30, 2012 was primarily related to higher revenues from consumer packaged goods. The increase in television product revenues from home video and electronic delivery for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was primarily related to higher electronic delivery revenues reflecting the subscription video-on-demand availabilities of certain television series.
Television product revenues from consumer products and other are primarily due to higher retransmission royalties received during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012.
Other content revenues decreased for the three months ended June 30, 2012 primarily due to lower revenues from videogames released in the current quarter of $190 million, partially offset by higher carryover revenues from videogame releases in prior periods of $48 million. Two videogames were released in the second quarter of 2012 as compared to five in the prior year quarter. Other content revenues decreased for the six months ended June 30, 2012 primarily due to lower revenues from videogames released in the first six months of 2012 of $269 million, partially offset by higher carryover revenues from videogame releases in prior periods of $136 million. Three videogames were released in the first half of 2012 as compared to six in the first half of 2011.
The Company anticipates that Content revenues at the Film and TV Entertainment segment for the third quarter of 2012 will decline compared to the same period in 2011 due to difficult theatrical and television product comparisons primarily related to Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 and The Big Bang Theory .
The increase in Other revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 was due primarily to higher international television production activities for third parties.

Other costs, including merchandise and related costs, decreased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 primarily due to lower distribution costs associated with lower theatrical home video and videogame sales. The changes in print and advertising costs and film and TV production costs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 were mainly due to the mix and performance of product released. Included in film and TV production costs are theatrical film valuation adjustments as a result of revisions to estimates of ultimate revenue for certain theatrical films. Theatrical film valuation adjustments for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 were $8 million and $15 million, respectively, and were $50 million for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2011.
The decrease in Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 was due mainly to lower costs primarily associated with sales of videogames distributed by third parties.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, Subscription revenues decreased primarily due to lower worldwide newsstand sales of $23 million and $37 million, respectively, primarily as a result of soft market conditions. Domestic subscription sales declined by $10 million and $1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, Advertising revenues decreased primarily due to lower domestic magazine advertising revenues mainly as a result of fewer pages sold due to soft market conditions, partially offset by the $7 million positive impact of the transfer of management of SI.com and Golf.com to Time Inc. from Turner in the second quarter of 2012.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, Other revenues decreased primarily due to the negative impact of the sale of the QSP Business of $2 million and $9 million, respectively. In addition, other revenues were negatively impacted by approximately $9 million for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 due to the absence of the license fee for SI.com and Golf.com that had been received from Turner in the prior year.
The Company expects that the soft market conditions associated with the Publishing segments worldwide newsstand sales and domestic magazine advertising revenues will continue through at least the third quarter of 2012.

For the three months ended June 30, 2012, Costs of revenues decreased due primarily to lower production costs, reflecting reduced print volume, offset in part by higher editorial costs primarily associated with investments in websites and tablet editions of magazines. For the six months ended June 30, 2012, Costs of revenues reflected lower production costs, primarily reflecting reduced print volume, which were essentially offset by higher editorial costs associated with investments in websites and tablet editions of magazines.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased 3% and 2%, respectively, primarily due to lower costs of $13 million and $23 million, respectively, as a result of the sale of the QSP Business. For the six months ended June 30, 2012, the decrease was partially offset by higher promotional spending.
As previously noted under Transactions and Other Items Affecting Comparability, the results for the six months ended June 30, 2012 included a $42 million noncash loss on operating assets in connection with the sale of the QSP Business.
Operating Income decreased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 primarily due to lower Revenues and, for the six months ended June 30, 2012, a $42 million loss on operating assets in connection with the sale of the QSP Business, offset in part by lower expenses.
During 2012, the Publishing segment has experienced soft market conditions that have negatively impacted its operating results. If those market conditions worsen, it is possible that the book values of the Time Inc. reporting unit and certain of its tradenames will exceed their respective fair values, which may result in the Company recognizing a noncash impairment that could be material. No interim impairment analyses of the Time Inc. reporting units goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets have been required in the second quarter of 2012. As discussed in more detail in Note 1 to the Companys consolidated financial statements in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, primarily certain tradenames, are tested annually for impairment during the fourth quarter or earlier upon the occurrence of certain events or substantive changes in circumstances. As of December 31, 2011, the fair value of the Time Inc. reporting unit was 19% in excess of its book value.

Cash provided by operations from continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2012 decreased as compared with the prior year period primarily due to lower Operating Income, higher net income taxes paid and higher net interest payments, related to higher average debt in 2012, offset in part by lower cash used by working capital, which primarily reflected lower production spending.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Description of Business
Time Warner Inc. (Time Warner or the Company) is a leading media and entertainment company, whose businesses include television networks, film and TV entertainment and publishing. Time Warner classifies its operations into three reportable segments: Networks : consisting principally of cable television networks, premium pay and basic tier television services and digital media properties; Film and TV Entertainment : consisting principally of feature film, television, home video and videogame production and distribution; and Publishing : consisting principally of magazine publishing and related websites as well as book publishing, marketing services and other marketing businesses. Financial information for Time Warners various reportable segments is presented in Note 13.
Basis of Presentation
Interim Financial Statements
The consolidated financial statements are unaudited; however, in the opinion of management, they contain all of the adjustments (consisting of those of a normal recurring nature) considered necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) applicable to interim periods. The consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of Time Warner included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011 (the 2011 Form 10-K).
Basis of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include all of the assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and cash flows of entities in which Time Warner has a controlling interest (subsidiaries). Intercompany accounts and transactions between consolidated companies have been eliminated in consolidation.
The financial position and operating results of most of the Companys foreign operations are consolidated using the local currency as the functional currency. Local currency assets and liabilities are translated at the rates of exchange on the balance sheet date, and local currency revenues and expenses are translated at average rates of exchange during the period. Translation gains or losses on assets and liabilities are included as a component of Accumulated other comprehensive loss, net.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year financial information to conform to the June 30, 2012 presentation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Significant estimates and judgments inherent in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements include accounting for asset impairments, multiple-element transactions, allowances for doubtful accounts, depreciation and amortization, the determination of ultimate revenues as it relates to amortization of capitalized film and programming costs and participations and residuals, home video and videogames product and magazine returns, business combinations, pension and other postretirement benefits, equity-based compensation, income taxes, contingencies, litigation matters, reporting revenue for certain transactions on a gross versus net basis, and the determination of whether the Company is the primary beneficiary of entities in which it holds variable interests.

2. ASSET DISPOSITIONS
Imagine
During the second quarter of 2012, the Company completed the shutdown of its general entertainment network, Imagine, in India. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company recognized $65 million and $123 million, respectively, of charges related to the shutdown. These charges consisted of $65 million and $117 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively, primarily related to certain receivables, including value added tax receivables, inventories and long-lived assets, including Goodwill, and, for the six months ended June 30, 2012, $6 million related to exit and other transaction costs.
TNT Turkey
During the second quarter of 2012, the Company made the decision to close its TNT television operations in Turkey. For both the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company recognized charges of $98 million consisting of $62 million primarily related to certain receivables, including value added tax receivables, inventories and other assets, $20 million related to exit and other transaction costs and $16 million related to an investment.
QSP
On January 13, 2012, the Publishing segment sold, solely in exchange for contingent consideration, assets primarily comprising the school fundraising business, QSP. For the six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company recognized a $42 million noncash loss in connection with the sale.
3. INVESTMENTS
CME
On April 30, 2012, the Company and Central European Media Enterprises Ltd. (CME), a publicly traded media and entertainment company that operates leading television networks in six Central and Eastern European counties, entered into an arrangement in which the Company agreed to purchase shares of CMEs Class A common stock and to loan CME up to $300 million for the sole purpose of CME retiring certain of its outstanding public indebtedness that was scheduled to mature over the next few years through concurrent tender offers (the CME Credit Facility). The arrangement also gave CME the option to sell the Company additional shares of CMEs Class A common stock or securities convertible into Class A common stock. The purchase price for the shares was fixed at $7.51 per share based on the trailing 20 day volume-weighted average closing price of CME Class A common stock prior to April 30, 2012 and was to be paid through a reduction in the amount owed by CME under the CME Credit Facility.
During the quarter ended June 30, 2012, CME borrowed $180 million under the CME Credit Facility, of which $15 million was repaid during the quarter, and the Company purchased approximately 9.9 million shares of Class A common stock for $74 million, which increased its economic interest in CME to approximately 42%. As of June 30, 2012, $91 million remained outstanding under the CME Credit Facility and such amount is classified as a noncurrent asset on the Companys Consolidated Balance Sheet.
On July 3, 2012, the remaining amount outstanding under the CME Credit Facility was used to purchase approximately 875,000 additional shares of Class A common stock and one share of CMEs Class A convertible preferred stock, which increased the Companys economic interest in CME to 49.9%.
Based on the closing price of CME Class A common stock at the end of the second quarter of 2012 of $5.07 per share, the fair value of the Companys interest in CME was approximately $57 million below its carrying value as of June 30, 2012. Taking into consideration the additional shares purchased on July 3, 2012 and the cost of those shares, the Companys interest in CME as of that date was approximately $88 million below its carrying value. As of June 30, 2012, the investment had been below its carrying value for approximately one month. In assessing whether an investment is impaired on an other-than-temporary basis, the Company considers the financial condition and business prospects of the investee, the severity and duration of the decline in fair value as well as the Companys intent and ability to hold the investment until its cost is recovered. The impairment evaluation process involves considerable judgment. As a result of its
27
TIME WARNER INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
assessment of its investment in CME, the Company does not believe the decline in fair value below carrying value of its investment in CME was other-than-temporary at June 30, 2012. However, future evaluations of impairment could lead the Company to conclude that the investment is impaired on an other-than-temporary basis and, as a result, record an impairment charge that could be material.
4. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
A fair value measurement is determined based on the assumptions that a market participant would use in pricing an asset or liability. A three-tiered hierarchy draws distinctions between market participant assumptions based on (i) observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets (Level 1), (ii) inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are observable either directly or indirectly (Level 2) and (iii) unobservable inputs that require the Company to use present value and other valuation techniques in the determination of fair value (Level 3). The following table presents information about assets and liabilities required to be carried at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively (millions):

The Company primarily applies the market approach for valuing recurring fair value measurements. Assets and liabilities valued using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) primarily consist of an asset related to equity instruments held by employees of a former subsidiary of the Company, liabilities for contingent consideration and options to redeem securities.
The following table reconciles the beginning and ending balances of net assets and liabilities classified as Level 3 and identifies the total gains (losses) the Company recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, on such assets and liabilities that were included in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively (millions):

Other Financial Instruments
The Companys other financial instruments, including debt, are not required to be carried at fair value. Based on the interest rates prevailing at June 30, 2012, the fair value of Time Warners debt exceeded its carrying value by approximately $3.724 billion and, based on interest rates prevailing at December 31, 2011, the fair value of Time Warners debt exceeded its carrying value by approximately $3.549 billion. The fair value of Time Warners debt was considered a Level 2 measurement as it was based on observable market inputs such as current interest rates and, where available, actual sales transactions. Unrealized gains or losses on debt do not result in the realization or expenditure of cash and generally are not recognized in the consolidated financial statements unless the debt is retired prior to its maturity. The carrying value for the majority of the Companys other financial instruments approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of the financial instruments or because the financial instruments are of a longer-term nature and are recorded on a discounted basis. For the remainder of the Companys other financial instruments, other than the Companys investments in CME as described in Note 3, Investments, differences between the carrying value and fair value are not significant at June 30, 2012. The fair value of financial instruments is generally determined by reference to the market value of the instrument as quoted on a national securities exchange or an over-the-counter market. In cases where a quoted market value is not available, fair value is based on an estimate using present value or other valuation techniques.
Non-Financial Instruments
The majority of the Companys non-financial instruments, which include goodwill, intangible assets, inventories and property, plant and equipment, are not required to be carried at fair value on a recurring basis. However, if certain triggering events occur (or at least annually for goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets) such that a non-financial instrument is required to be evaluated for impairment, a resulting asset impairment would require that the non-financial instrument be recorded at the lower of cost or its fair value.
Because of a change in the expected use of certain long-lived assets, primarily intangible assets at Imagine, during the first quarter of 2012, such assets were tested for impairment by comparing their carrying values with their estimated fair values. As the carrying values of such assets exceeded their estimated fair values, the Company recorded a noncash impairment of $19 million to write down the value of such assets to zero. The resulting fair value measurements of the assets were considered to be Level 3 measurements and were determined using a discounted cash flow (DCF) methodology with assumptions for cash flows associated with the use and eventual disposition of the assets. Nonrecurring fair value measurements made in connection with the Companys decision to close its TNT television operations in Turkey during the second quarter of 2012 were not significant.
In determining the fair value of its films, the Company employs a DCF methodology that includes cash flow estimates of a films ultimate revenue and costs as well as a discount rate. The discount rate utilized in the DCF analysis is based on the weighted average cost of capital of the respective business (e.g., Warner Bros. Entertainment Group) plus a risk premium representing the risk associated with producing a particular film. The fair value of any film and TV production costs associated with a film that management plans to abandon is zero. As the primary determination of fair value is

TIME WARNER INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
determined using a DCF model, the resulting fair value is considered a Level 3 measurement. During the three months ended June 30, 2012, certain film and TV production costs, which were recorded as inventory in the Consolidated Balance Sheet, were written down to $63 million from their carrying value of $87 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2012, certain film and TV production costs, which were recorded as inventory in the Consolidated Balance Sheet, were written down to $102 million from their carrying value of $174 million. During the three months ended June 30, 2011, certain film and TV production costs, which were recorded as inventory in the Consolidated Balance Sheet, were written down to $184 million from their carrying value of $234 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, certain film and TV production costs, which were recorded as inventory in the Consolidated Balance Sheet, were written down to $184 million from their carrying value of $239 million.

6. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
Time Warner uses derivative instruments, principally forward contracts, to manage the risk associated with the volatility of future cash flows denominated in foreign currencies and changes in fair value resulting from changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The principal currencies being hedged include the British Pound, Euro, Australian Dollar and Canadian Dollar. Time Warner uses foreign exchange contracts that generally have maturities of three to 18 months to hedge various foreign exchange exposures, including the following: (i) variability in foreign-currency-denominated cash flows, such as the hedges of unremitted or forecasted royalty and license fees owed to Time Warner domestic companies for the sale or anticipated sale of U.S. copyrighted products abroad or cash flows for certain film production costs denominated in a foreign currency (i.e., cash flow hedges) and (ii) currency risk associated with foreign-currency-denominated operating assets and liabilities (i.e., fair value hedges). For these qualifying hedge relationships, the Company excludes the impact of forward points from its assessment of hedge effectiveness. As a result, changes in the fair value of forward points are recorded in Other loss, net in the Consolidated Statement of Operations each quarter.
The Company also enters into derivative contracts that economically hedge certain of its foreign currency risks, even though hedge accounting does not apply or the Company elects not to apply hedge accounting. These economic hedges are used primarily to offset the change in certain foreign currency denominated long-term receivables and certain foreign-currency-denominated debt due to changes in the underlying foreign exchange rates.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
Gains and losses from hedging activities recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Operations, including hedge ineffectiveness, were not material for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011. In addition, such gains and losses were largely offset by corresponding economic gains or losses from the respective transactions that were hedged.
The following is a summary of amounts recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheet pertaining to Time Warners use of foreign currency derivatives at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 (millions):

The Company monitors its positions with, and the credit quality of, the financial institutions that are party to its financial transactions. Additionally, netting provisions are included in existing agreements in situations where the Company executes multiple contracts with the same counterparty. As a result, net assets or liabilities resulting from foreign exchange derivatives subject to these netting agreements are classified within Prepaid expenses and other current assets or Accounts payable and accrued liabilities in the Companys Consolidated Balance Sheet. At June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, $35 million and $19 million of gains, respectively, related to cash flow hedges are recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive loss, net and are expected to be recognized in earnings at the same time the hedged items affect earnings. Included in Accumulated other comprehensive loss, net are deferred net gains of $9 million and less than $1 million at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively, related to hedges of cash flows associated with films that are not expected to be released within the next twelve months.

13. SEGMENT INFORMATION
Time Warner classifies its operations into three reportable segments: Networks : consisting principally of cable television networks, premium pay and basic tier television services and digital media properties; Film and TV Entertainment : consisting principally of feature film, television, home video and videogame production and distribution; and Publishing : consisting principally of magazine publishing and related websites as well as book publishing, marketing services and other marketing businesses. Effective for the first quarter of 2012, the Company changed the name of its Filmed Entertainment reportable segment to Film and TV Entertainment. This change did not affect the composition of the segment; accordingly, all prior period financial information related to this reportable segment was unaffected.
Information as to the Revenues, intersegment revenues, Operating Income (Loss), and Assets of Time Warner in each of its reportable segments is set forth below (millions):

14. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Commitments
Six Flags
In connection with the Companys former investment in the Six Flags theme parks located in Georgia and Texas (collectively, the Parks), in 1997, certain subsidiaries of the Company (including Historic TW and, in connection with the separation of Time Warner Cable Inc. in 2009, Warner Bros. Entertainment Inc.) agreed to guarantee (the Six Flags Guarantee) certain obligations of the partnerships that hold the Parks (the Partnerships) for the benefit of the limited partners in such Partnerships, including: annual payments made at the Parks or to the limited partners and additional obligations at the end of the respective terms for the Partnerships in 2027 and 2028 (the Guaranteed Obligations). The aggregate undiscounted estimated future cash flow requirements covered by the Six Flags Guarantee over the remaining term (through 2028) are approximately $1.0 billion (for a net present value of approximately $410 million). To date, no payments have been made by the Company pursuant to the Six Flags Guarantee.
Six Flags Entertainment Corporation (formerly known as Six Flags, Inc. and Premier Parks Inc.) (Six Flags), which has the controlling interest in the Parks, has agreed, pursuant to a subordinated indemnity agreement (the Subordinated Indemnity Agreement), to guarantee the performance of the Guaranteed Obligations when due and to indemnify Historic TW, among others, if the Six Flags Guarantee is called upon. If Six Flags defaults in its indemnification obligations, Historic TW has the right to acquire control of the managing partner of the Parks. Six Flags obligations to Historic TW are further secured by its interest in all limited partnership units held by Six Flags.
Because the Six Flags Guarantee existed prior to December 31, 2002 and no modifications to the arrangements have been made since the date the guarantee came into existence, the Company is required to continue to account for the Guaranteed Obligations as a contingent liability. Based on its evaluation of the current facts and circumstances surrounding the Guaranteed Obligations and the Subordinated Indemnity Agreement, the Company is unable to predict the loss, if any, that may be incurred under these Guaranteed Obligations and no liability for the arrangements has been recognized at June 30, 2012. Because of the specific circumstances surrounding the arrangements and the fact that no active or observable market exists for this type of financial guarantee, the Company is unable to determine a current fair value for the Guaranteed Obligations and related Subordinated Indemnity Agreement.

Contingencies
In the ordinary course of business, the Company and its subsidiaries are defendants in or parties to various legal claims, actions and proceedings. These claims, actions and proceedings are at varying stages of investigation, arbitration or adjudication, and involve a variety of areas of law.
On October 8, 2004, certain heirs of Jerome Siegel, one of the creators of the Superman character, filed suit against the Company, DC Comics and Warner Bros. Entertainment Inc. in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California. Plaintiffs complaint seeks an accounting and demands up to one-half of the profits made on Superman since the alleged April 16, 1999 termination by plaintiffs of Siegels grants of one-half of the rights to the Superman character to DC Comics predecessor-in-interest. Plaintiffs have also asserted various Lanham Act and unfair competition claims, alleging wasting of the Superman property by DC Comics, and the Company has filed counterclaims. On March 26, 2008, the court entered an order of summary judgment finding, among other things, that plaintiffs notices of termination were valid and that plaintiffs had thereby recaptured, as of April 16, 1999, their rights to a one-half interest in the Superman story material, as first published, but that the accounting for profits would not include profits attributable to foreign exploitation, republication of pre-termination works and trademark exploitation. On October 6, 2008, the court dismissed plaintiffs Lanham Act and wasting claims with prejudice, and subsequently determined that the remaining claims in the case will be subject to phased non-jury trials. On July 8, 2009, the court issued a decision in the first phase trial in favor of the defendants on the issue of whether the terms of various license agreements between DC Comics and Warner Bros. Entertainment Inc. were at fair market value or constituted sweetheart deals. On May 17, 2011, the court certified certain liability issues for interlocutory appeal and stayed proceedings pending that appeal. The parties are pursuing their interlocutory appeals with respect to the certified liability issues.
On October 22, 2004, the same Siegel heirs filed a related lawsuit against the same defendants, as well as Warner Communications Inc. and Warner Bros. Television Production Inc. in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California. Plaintiffs claim that Siegel was the sole creator of the character Superboy and, as such, DC Comics has had no right to create new Superboy works since the alleged October 17, 2004 termination by plaintiffs of Siegels grants of rights to the Superboy character to DC Comics predecessor-in-interest. This lawsuit seeks a declaration regarding the validity of the alleged termination and an injunction against future use of the Superboy character. On March 23, 2006, the court granted plaintiffs motion for partial summary judgment on termination, denied the Companys motion for summary judgment and held that further proceedings are necessary to determine whether the Companys Smallville television series may infringe on plaintiffs rights to the Superboy character. On July 27, 2007, upon the Companys motion for reconsideration, the court reversed the bulk of its March 23, 2006 ruling, and requested additional briefing on certain issues, on which a decision remains pending.
On May 14, 2010, DC Comics filed a related lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California against the heirs of Superman co-creator Joseph Shuster, the Siegel heirs, their attorney Marc Toberoff and certain companies that Mr. Toberoff controls. The lawsuit asserts a claim for declaratory relief concerning the validity and scope of the copyright termination notice served by the Shuster heirs, which, together with the termination notices served by the Siegel heirs described above, purports to preclude DC Comics from creating new Superman and/or Superboy works for distribution and sale in the United States after October 26, 2013. The lawsuit also seeks declaratory relief with respect to, inter alia, the validity of various agreements between Mr. Toberoff, his companies and the Shuster and Siegel heirs, and asserts claims for intentional interference by Mr. Toberoff with DC Comics contracts and prospective economic advantage with the Shuster and Siegel heirs, for which DC Comics seeks monetary damages. On October 25, 2011, defendants motion to strike certain causes of action was denied. On November 2, 2011, defendants appealed the denial to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. On July 16, 2012, DC Comics filed a motion for partial summary judgment on two of its asserted claims the validity of the copyright termination notice served by the Shuster heirs and that the agreements referenced above interfered with DC Comics rights under the copyright termination provisions.
On April 4, 2007, the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) issued a complaint against CNN America Inc. (CNN America) and Team Video Services, LLC (Team Video). This administrative proceeding relates to CNN Americas December 2003 and January 2004 terminations of its contractual relationships with Team Video, under which Team Video had provided electronic news gathering services in Washington, DC and New York, NY. The National Association of Broadcast Employees and Technicians, under which Team Videos employees were unionized, initially filed charges of unfair labor practices with the NLRB in February 2004, alleging that CNN America and Team Video were joint employers, that CNN America was a successor employer to Team Video, and/or that CNN America discriminated in its hiring practices

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
to avoid becoming a successor employer or due to specific individuals union affiliation or activities. The NLRB complaint seeks, among other things, the reinstatement of certain union members and monetary damages. On November 19, 2008, the presiding NLRB Administrative Law Judge issued a non-binding recommended decision, finding CNN America liable. On February 17, 2009, CNN America filed exceptions to this decision with the NLRB.
On September 20, 2007, Brantley, et al. v. NBC Universal, Inc., et al. was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California against the Company and several other programming content providers (collectively, the programmer defendants) as well as cable and satellite providers (collectively, the distributor defendants), alleging violations of the federal antitrust laws. Among other things, the complaint alleged coordination between and among the programmer defendants to sell and/or license programming on a bundled basis to the distributor defendants, who in turn purportedly offer that programming to subscribers in packaged tiers, rather than on a per channel (or à la carte) basis. In an order dated October 15, 2009, the court dismissed the third amended complaint with prejudice. On October 30, 2009, plaintiffs filed a notice of appeal with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. On March 30, 2012, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit affirmed the district courts dismissal of the lawsuit and, on May 4, 2012, denied plaintiffs petition for a rehearing en banc.
On March 10, 2009, Anderson News L.L.C. and Anderson Services L.L.C. (collectively, Anderson News) filed an antitrust lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York against several magazine publishers, distributors and wholesalers, including Time Inc. and one of its subsidiaries, Time/Warner Retail Sales & Marketing, Inc. Plaintiffs allege that defendants violated Section 1 of the Sherman Antitrust Act by engaging in an antitrust conspiracy against Anderson News, as well as other related state law claims. Plaintiffs are seeking unspecified monetary damages. On August 2, 2010, the court granted defendants motions to dismiss the complaint with prejudice and, on October 25, 2010, the court denied Anderson News motion for reconsideration of that dismissal. On November 8, 2010, Anderson News filed a notice of appeal with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit. On April 3, 2012, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit vacated the district courts dismissal of plaintiffs complaint and remanded the case to the district court for further proceedings. On July 18, 2012, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit denied defendants petition for a panel rehearing or a rehearing en banc.
The Company intends to vigorously defend against or prosecute, as applicable, the matters described above.
The Company establishes an accrued liability for legal claims when the Company determines that a loss is both probable and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Once established, accruals are adjusted from time to time, as appropriate, in light of additional information. The amount of any loss ultimately incurred in relation to matters for which an accrual has been established may be higher or lower than the amounts accrued for such matters.
For matters disclosed above for which a loss is probable or reasonably possible, whether in excess of an accrued liability or where there is no accrued liability, the Company has estimated a range of possible loss. The Company believes the estimate of the aggregate range of possible loss in excess of accrued liabilities for such matters is between $0 and $80 million at June 30, 2012. The estimated aggregate range of possible loss is subject to significant judgment and a variety of assumptions. The matters represented in the estimated aggregate range of possible loss will change from time to time and actual results may vary significantly from the current estimate.
In view of the inherent difficulty of predicting the outcome of litigation and claims, the Company often cannot predict what the eventual outcome of the pending matters will be, what the timing of the ultimate resolution of these matters will be, or what the eventual loss, fines or penalties related to each pending matter may be. An adverse outcome in one or more of these matters could be material to the Companys results of operations or cash flows for any particular reporting period.
Income Tax Uncertainties
During the six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company recorded net incremental income tax reserves of approximately $71 million. Of the $71 million net incremental income tax reserves, approximately $49 million would affect the Companys effective tax rate if reversed. During the six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company recorded interest reserves related to the income tax reserves of approximately $34 million.

Accounting for Collaborative Arrangements
The Companys collaborative arrangements primarily relate to arrangements entered into with third parties to jointly finance and distribute theatrical productions (co-financing arrangements) and the arrangement entered into with CBS Broadcasting, Inc. (CBS) and The National Collegiate Athletic Association (the NCAA) that provides Turner and CBS with exclusive television, Internet and wireless rights to the NCAA Division I Mens Basketball Championship events (the NCAA Tournament) in the United States and its territories and possessions from 2011 through 2024.
For the Companys collaborative arrangements entered into with third parties to jointly finance and distribute theatrical productions, net participation costs of $93 million and $111 million were recorded in Costs of revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and $170 million and $198 million were recorded in Costs of revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
40
TIME WARNER INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
The aggregate programming rights fee, production costs, advertising revenues and sponsorship revenues related to the NCAA Tournament and related programming are shared equally by Turner and CBS. However, if the amount paid for the programming rights fee and production costs, in any given year, exceeds advertising and sponsorship revenues for that year, CBS share of such shortfall is limited to specified annual amounts (the loss cap), ranging from approximately $90 million to $30 million. The amount incurred by the Company pursuant to the loss cap during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 was not significant.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION
CONDENSED CONSOLIDATING FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Overview
Set forth below are condensed consolidating financial statements presenting the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of (i) Time Warner Inc. (the Parent Company), (ii) Historic TW Inc. (in its own capacity and as successor by merger to Time Warner Companies, Inc.), Home Box Office, Inc., and Turner Broadcasting System, Inc., each a wholly owned subsidiary of the Parent Company (collectively, the Guarantor Subsidiaries), on a combined basis, (iii) the direct and indirect non-guarantor subsidiaries of the Parent Company (the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries), on a combined basis and (iv) the eliminations necessary to arrive at the information for Time Warner Inc. on a consolidated basis. The Guarantor Subsidiaries, fully and unconditionally, jointly and severally, guarantee securities issued under certain of the Companys indentures on an unsecured basis.
There are no legal or regulatory restrictions on the Parent Companys ability to obtain funds from any of its wholly owned subsidiaries through dividends, loans or advances.
Basis of Presentation
In presenting the condensed consolidating financial statements, the equity method of accounting has been applied to (i) the Parent Companys interests in the Guarantor Subsidiaries and (ii) the Guarantor Subsidiaries interests in the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries, where applicable, even though all such subsidiaries meet the requirements to be consolidated under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. All intercompany balances and transactions between the Parent Company, the Guarantor Subsidiaries and the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries have been eliminated, as shown in the column Eliminations.
The Parent Companys accounting bases in all subsidiaries, including goodwill and identified intangible assets, have been pushed down to the applicable subsidiaries. Corporate overhead expenses have been reflected as expenses of the Parent Company and have not been allocated to the Guarantor Subsidiaries or the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries. Interest income (expense) is determined based on third-party debt and the relevant intercompany amounts within the respective legal entity.
All direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries are included in Time Warner Inc.s consolidated U.S. tax return. In the condensed consolidating financial statements, tax expense has been allocated based on each such subsidiarys relative pretax income to the consolidated pretax income. With respect to the use of certain consolidated tax attributes (principally operating and capital loss carryforwards), such benefits have been allocated to the respective subsidiary that generated the taxable income permitting such use (i.e., pro-rata based on where the income was generated). For example, to the extent a Non-Guarantor Subsidiary generated a gain on the sale of a business for which the Parent Company utilized tax attributes to offset such gain, the tax attribute benefit would be allocated to that Non-Guarantor Subsidiary. Deferred taxes of the Parent Company, the Guarantor Subsidiaries and the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries have been allocated based upon the temporary differences between the carrying amounts of the respective assets and liabilities of the applicable entities.
Certain transfers of cash between subsidiaries and their parent companies and intercompany dividends are reflected as cash flows from investing and financing activities in the accompanying condensed consolidating statements of cash flows. All other intercompany activity is reflected in cash flows from operations.
Management believes that the allocations and adjustments noted above are reasonable. However, such allocations and adjustments may not be indicative of the actual amounts that would have been incurred had the Parent Company, Guarantor Subsidiaries and Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries operated independently.

AMENDMENT NO. 1
TO THE
TIME WARNER SUPPLEMENTAL SAVINGS PLAN
(Effective January 1, 2011)
1. |
Section 2.1(o) shall be amended to read as follows: |
(o) Eligible Employee means an Employee who is otherwise eligible for participation in the Qualified Plan, including an Employee who is not employed at a U.S. location of an Employing Company if the Employee is compensated solely through a U.S. payroll. Solely for clarification and the avoidance of doubt, an Employee who is not employed at a U.S. location of an Employing Company is not eligible for this Plan if such Employee is compensated in whole or in part through a non-U.S. payroll. For purposes of Section 4.1(f), an Eligible Employee includes an Employee eligible for additional Compensation payments for which a deferral election may be made thereunder, without regard to whether such Employee is eligible for participation in the Qualified Plan.
2. |
Section 11.4 shall be amended to read as follows: |
11.4 Withholding/Payment of Taxes . The Employing Company or former Employing Company or paying agent shall withhold any federal, state, local or foreign income or employment tax (including F.I.C.A. obligations for both social security and Medicare) which by any present or future law it is, or may be, required to withhold with respect to any payment pursuant to the Plan, with respect to any of its former or present Employees. In addition, a Participant or Beneficiary may request an acceleration of a payment from the Plan to reflect payment of state, local, or foreign tax obligations arising from participation in the Plan and that applies to an amount deferred under the Plan before the amount is paid or made available to the Participant or Beneficiary (the state, local, or foreign tax amount). This amount may include an amount necessary to pay the income tax at source on wages imposed under Code Section 3401 or the corresponding withholding provisions of applicable federal, state, local, or foreign tax laws as a result of the payment of any such amounts, and to pay the additional income tax at source on wages attributable to the pyramiding taxes attributable to such amounts. Such payment may not exceed the amount of such taxes due as a result of participation in the Plan, as permitted by Code Section 409A and the regulations thereunder. Such payment may be made by distributions to the Participant or Beneficiary in the form of withholding by the Employing Company or former Employing Company pursuant to provisions of applicable state, local, or foreign law or by distribution directly to the Participant. The Benefits Officer shall provide or direct the provision of information necessary or appropriate to enable such distributions to be made or to enable each such company to so withhold.
3. |
Section 11.5 shall be amended to read as follows: |
11.5 No Guarantee of Tax Consequences . The Benefits Officer, the Investment Committee, the Administrative Committee, the Company and any Employing Company or any former Employing Company do not make any commitment or guarantee that any amounts deferred for the benefit of a Participant, Inactive Participant or Beneficiary will be excludible from the gross income of the Participant, Inactive Participant or Beneficiary in the year deferred or paid for federal, state, local or foreign income or employment tax purposes, or that any other federal, state, local or foreign tax treatment will apply to or be available to any Participant, Inactive Participant or Beneficiary. It shall be the obligation of each Participant, Inactive Participant or Beneficiary to determine whether any deferral or payment under the Plan is excludible from his or her gross income for federal, state, local or foreign income or employment tax purposes, and to take appropriate action if he or she has reason to believe that any such deferral or payment is not so excludible.
4. |
This Amendment shall be effective as of June 1, 2012. |
