The revenue spike in Q3 2024 was primarily driven by the highly successful airing of the **Paris Olympics**, which significantly boosted Comcast’s advertising and media revenues. Additionally, the **Media segment** experienced strong growth—supported by higher domestic advertising and domestic distribution revenue with extra Peacock sales—while improvements in Comcast’s **Connectivity businesses** and **Studios segment** also contributed positively, despite a modest decline in the **Theme Parks segment**.  **[CMCSA_3405042_3]** **[0001166691-24-000054_ex991-9302024.htm:4]** **[0001166691-24-000054_ex991-9302024.htm:0]** **[0001166691-24-000056_cmcsa-20240930.htm:28]** 

What drove the revenue spike in Q3 2024?

The change in the tax expense is largely related to actions taken in 2024. In Q4 2024, Comcast completed an internal corporate reorganization that resulted in a substantial tax benefit, and there was also a decline in its domestic income before income taxes. These factors together led to a lower effective income tax rate, which shifted the reported tax expense from a tax benefit (a negative figure in Q4 2023) to a positive number in Q4 2024.  **[0001166691-25-000011_cmcsa-20241231.htm:113]** **[0001166691-25-000011_cmcsa-20241231.htm:59]** 

Why did income tax expense turn positive in Q4 2024?

The net income surge in Q4 2024 was driven by multiple factors, including a **2.1% increase in revenue** (rising from **$31,253 million** to **$31,915 million**), a **9.9% growth in adjusted EBITDA** (from **$8,012 million** to **$8,807 million**), and a **54.1% increase in EPS** (from **$0.81** to **$1.24**). Additionally, a **$1.9 billion income tax benefit** resulting from an internal corporate reorganization significantly boosted the net income.  **[0001166691-25-000006_ex991-12312024.htm:0]** **[0001166691-25-000006_ex991-12312024.htm:10]** **[0001166691-25-000006_ex991-12312024.htm:15]** 

What contributed to the net income surge in Q4 2024?

Amortization expense increased significantly in Q3 2024, by **28.6%** to **$1,659 million** from **$1,290 million** in Q3 2023. This rise was driven mainly by a substantial increase in the amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, which grew from **$571 million** to **$817 million**. The change reflects the timing and size of acquisitions, as well as adjustments in the recognition and valuation of intangible assets following business combinations.  **[0001166691-24-000056_cmcsa-20240930.htm:16]** **[0001166691-24-000054_ex991-9302024.htm:11]**

The surge in **Cash and cash equivalents** during Q3 2024 was driven by several factors. Notably, there was a robust operating performance with **net cash provided by operating activities of $7,021 million** and a strong **free cash flow of $3,406 million**. Additionally, a decrease in **capital expenditures by 11.6% to $2.9 billion** helped preserve cash, while the company also managed to balance **shareholder returns and debt management** effectively. These elements combined to boost cash holdings from **$6,215 million** at the end of 2023 to **$8,814 million** in Q3 2024.  **[0001166691-24-000056_cmcsa-20240930.htm:14]** **[0001166691-24-000056_cmcsa-20240930.htm:6]** **[0001166691-24-000054_ex991-9302024.htm:0]** **[0001166691-24-000054_ex991-9302024.htm:1]** **[0001166691-24-000056_cmcsa-20240930.htm:35]** 

What drove the surge in Cash and cash equivalents in Q3 2024?

The documents indicate that the **current portion of debt** dropped from **$2,069 million as of December 31, 2023** to **$1,021 million as of June 30, 2024**. However, the documents do not provide specific reasons for this sharp decrease.  **[0001166691-24-000048_cmcsa-20240630.htm:6]** 

Why did the current portion of debt drop sharply in Q2 2024?

The significant decline is explained by a combination of **debt repayments**, **new debt issuances**, and **reclassifications** of debt obligations. Specifically, Comcast made **$3.6 billion** in debt repayments during 2024, issued new debt, and reclassified a portion of debt to the **current portion** (which increased from **$2,069 million** in 2023 to **$4,907 million** in 2024), contributing to a decrease of **$835 million** in the noncurrent portion of debt.  **[0001166691-25-000011_cmcsa-20241231.htm:78]** **[0001166691-25-000011_cmcsa-20241231.htm:97]** **[0001166691-24-000056_cmcsa-20240930.htm:6]** 

What explains the significant decline in noncurrent portion of debt in Q4 2024?

In Q3 **2024**, the increase in **total assets** was primarily driven by a significant **increase in cash and cash equivalents** (from **$6,215 million** to **$8,814 million**), a rise in **receivables, net** (from **$13,813 million** to **$14,036 million**), and an expansion in **other current assets**. Additionally, investments resulting in higher **property and equipment, net** (increasing from **$59,686 million** to **$61,775 million**) and a modest growth in **goodwill** also contributed to the overall asset increase, despite partially offsetting declines in **investments** and **other intangible assets** during the period.  **[0001166691-24-000056_cmcsa-20240930.htm:6]** 

What factors contributed to the increase in Total assets in Q3 2024?

Operating Cash Flow was low in Q2 2024 primarily because of **higher income tax payments**—mainly driven by increased payments related to the sale of Comcast's investment in Hulu and other tax-related factors—and adverse effects from **changes in operating assets and liabilities**, such as decreases in receivables and inventory.  **[0001166691-24-000048_cmcsa-20240630.htm:33]** **[0001166691-24-000046_ex991-6302024.htm:0]** 

Why was Operating Cash Flow so low in Q2 2024?

In Q4 2024, the **jump in capital expenditures** was largely due to **increased spending in two major segments**. The **Connectivity & Platforms segment** saw a **25.5% increase to $2.6 billion**, driven by higher spending on **scalable infrastructure, line extensions, and customer premise equipment**. Additionally, the **Content & Experiences segment** experienced a **6.3% increase to $1.3 billion** due to significant investment in constructing the **Epic Universe theme park in Orlando** (scheduled to open in May 2025).  **[0001166691-25-000006_ex991-12312024.htm:2]** 

What factors contributed to the jump in capital expenditures in Q4 2024?

In Q3 2024, the significant swing was primarily driven by several factors. The **net cash provided by operating activities** decreased from **$8,154 million** to **$7,021 million** due to lower net income and changes in working capital. At the same time, the **net cash used in investing activities** improved with a reduction in outflows—from **$11,718 million** down to **$10,559 million**—thanks to smaller capital expenditures and other investing activities. Furthermore, the **net cash used in financing activities** dropped notably from **$9,136 million** to **$6,459 million** because of reduced share repurchases and debt repayments. Lastly, the **impact of foreign currency** shifted positively, contributing an additional **$21 million** compared to a negative impact of **$18 million** previously.  **[0001166691-24-000054_ex991-9302024.htm:9]** **[0001166691-24-000054_ex991-9302024.htm:0]**
