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 nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company generated Revenues of $21.230 billion (up 3% from $20.565 billion in 2012), Operating Income of $4.765 billion (up 22% from $3.891 billion in 2012), Net Income attributable to Time Warner shareholders of $2.708 billion (up 49% from $1.813 billion in 2012) and Cash provided by operations of $2.831 billion (up 24% from $2.289 billion in 2012). On March 6, 2013, Time Warner announced that its Board of Directors has authorized management to proceed with plans for the complete legal and structural separation of the Companys Publishing segment from Time Warner (the Time Separation). Time Warner expects to complete the Time Separation during the second quarter of 2014.
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 12, Segment Information, to the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Networks. Time Warners Networks segment consists of Turner Broadcasting System, Inc. (Turner) and Home Box Office, Inc. (Home Box Office). During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Networks segment recorded Revenues of $11.057 billion (52% of the Companys total Revenues) and Operating Income of $4.011 billion.
Turner operates domestic and international television 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 to subscribers and from the sale of advertising. In addition, Turner provides online and mobile offerings for on-demand viewing of programs on its networks and live streaming of its networks to authenticated subscribers. Turner also manages and operates various digital media properties that primarily consist of brand-aligned websites, including CNN.com, NBA.com and related properties, NCAA.com and cartoonnetwork.com, that generate revenues principally from the sale of advertising and sponsorships.
Home Box Office operates the HBO and Cinemax domestic 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

OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION (Continued)
Cinemax-branded premium pay and basic tier television services are distributed in more than 60 countries in Latin America, Asia and Europe. HBO and Cinemax domestic premium pay television subscribers have access to the authenticated HBO GO and MAX GO streaming services, respectively, on various mobile devices and other online platforms, and an authenticated HBO GO streaming service is available to international premium pay television subscribers of HBO in a number of countries. 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. Additional sources of revenues for Home Box Office are the sale of its original programming, including Game of Thrones, True Blood and Boardwalk Empire, via DVDs, Blu-ray Discs and electronic sell-through (EST) and the licensing of original programming primarily to international television networks.
The Company expects that over the next several years domestic subscription revenues generated industry-wide by basic cable networks and premium pay television services will grow, in connection with affiliate contract renewals, as a result of investments in high quality programming.
Film and TV Entertainment. Time Warners Film and TV Entertainment segment consists of businesses managed by Warner Bros. Entertainment Inc. (Warner Bros.) that principally produce and distribute feature films, television shows and videogames. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Film and TV Entertainment segment recorded Revenues of $8.316 billion (37% of the Companys total Revenues) and Operating Income of $751 million.
The Film and TV Entertainment segments theatrical product revenues are generated principally through rental fees from theatrical exhibition of feature films, including the following recently released films: The Conjuring, Gravity, The Great Gatsby, The Hangover Part III, Man of Steel and Were the Millers, and subsequently through licensing fees received from the distribution of films on television networks and premium pay television services. Television product revenues are generated principally from the licensing of programs to television networks and premium pay television 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., EST and video-on-demand) as well as through licensing of feature films and television programming to subscription video on demand (SVOD) services. In addition, the segment generates revenues through the development and distribution of videogames.
Warner Bros. continues to be an industry leader in the television content business. Domestically, for the 2013-2014 season, Warner Bros. is producing more than 50 series, with at least three series for each of the five broadcast networks (including 2 Broke Girls, Arrow, The Bachelor, The Big Bang Theory, The Following, The Middle, Mike & Molly, Mom, Person of Interest, Revolution, Super Fun Night, Two and a Half Men, Vampire Diaries and The Voice), several original series for cable television networks (including Dallas, Longmire, Major Crimes, Pretty Little Liars and Rizzoli & Isles) and several series for first-run syndication (including The Ellen DeGeneres Show, Extra and TMZ). Warner Bros. also licenses many of these series internationally. In addition, 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. also creates locally produced versions of programs owned by the studio as well as original local television programming.
The distribution and sale of physical discs (both standard definition DVDs and high definition Blu-ray Discs) is one of the largest contributors to the segments revenues and profits. 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 physical disc sales; the general economic downturn in the U.S. and many regions around the world; increasing competition for consumer discretionary time and spending; and piracy. The electronic delivery of film and television content is growing and becoming more important to the Film and TV Entertainment segment, which has helped to offset some of the decline in sales of physical discs. In 2012 and through the first nine months of 2013, the decline in consumer spending on physical discs moderated compared to prior years and the growth in consumer spending on electronic delivery increased.
Publishing. Time Warners Publishing segment consists principally of Time Inc.s magazine publishing business and related websites as well as book publishing and marketing businesses. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Publishing segment recorded Revenues of $2.388 billion (11% of the Companys total Revenues) and Operating Income of $230 million.

TIME WARNER INC.
MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION (Continued)
As of September 30, 2013, Time Inc. published 21 magazines in print in the U.S., including People, Sports Illustrated, InStyle and Time, and over 70 magazines outside the U.S. All of Time Inc.s U.S. and U.K. magazines are available as digital editions on multiple digital devices and platforms.
The Publishing segment generates revenues primarily from the sale of advertising, magazine subscriptions and newsstand sales. The Publishing segment is experiencing declines in its print advertising and newsstand sales as a result of market conditions in the magazine publishing industry. The Publishing segment is pursuing a number of initiatives to help mitigate these declines, including conducting additional brand marketing; developing innovative ways to sell branded magazine content outside of traditional channels, including through websites, tablets and other mobile devices; developing integrated advertising solutions that will provide greater data insight and value to advertisers; developing a new cross-platform content management system; and improving its operating efficiency through management of its cost structure. During the third quarter of 2013, Time Inc. appointed a new chief executive officer and chief financial officer, who are in the process of reviewing Time Inc.s current strategies and initiatives as well as developing new strategies and initiatives for Time Inc. as part of preparing a new long-range plan. As a result, some of Time Inc.s current strategies and initiatives could be modified, abandoned or replaced with new strategies and initiatives, which could change the Companys expectations of future cash flows. For additional information, refer to Business Segment Results Publishing below.
Recent Developments
Acquisition of American Express Publishing Corporation
On October 1, 2013, Time Inc. acquired American Express Publishing Corporation, including Travel+Leisure and Food & Wine magazines and their related websites. Time Inc. also entered into a multi-year agreement to publish Departures magazine on behalf of American Express Company. In connection with the purchase, Time Inc. will recognize a pretax gain of approximately $20 million in the fourth quarter of 2013 resulting from the settlement of the pre-existing contractual arrangement with American Express Publishing Corporation pursuant to which Time Inc. previously provided management services to its publishing business. The purchase price was not material to the Companys financial condition or results of operations, and the Company does not expect the acquisition to have a material impact on its financial results.
HBO Asia and HBO South Asia
In September 2013, Home Box Office purchased its partners interests in HBO Asia and HBO South Asia (collectively, HBO Asia) for $37 million in cash, net of cash acquired. HBO Asia operates HBO- and Cinemax-branded premium pay and basic tier television services serving over 15 countries in Asia. As a result of this acquisition, Home Box Office now owns 100% of HBO Asia and has consolidated their results of operations and financial condition effective September 30, 2013. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, Home Box Office recognized a $105 million gain upon the Companys acquisition of the controlling interests in HBO Asia. The operating results of HBO Asia did not have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013.
Time Inc. Separation from Time Warner
On March 6, 2013, Time Warner announced that its Board of Directors has authorized management to proceed with plans for the Time Separation. The Time Separation is currently expected to be effected as a spin-off of Time Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. In the Time Separation, Time Warner will distribute all of its Time Inc. common stock to Time Warner stockholders, and Time Inc. will become an independent publicly-traded company. The Time Separation is contingent on the satisfaction of a number of conditions, including the effectiveness of a registration statement on Form 10 that Time Inc. will file with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Time Warner expects to complete the Time Separation during the second quarter of 2014.
Central European Media Enterprises Ltd.
During the second quarter of 2013, Central European Media Enterprises Ltd. (CME) conducted a public offering of shares of its Class A common stock in which the Company purchased approximately 28.5 million shares for approximately $78 million in cash in order to maintain a 49.9% voting interest in CMEs Class A common stock. In addition, on June 25, 2013, the Company purchased $200 million of CMEs newly-issued, non-voting Series B convertible redeemable preferred shares. The Company incurred costs of $9 million in connection with these transactions.

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION (Continued)
Prior to the second quarter of 2013, the Company accounted for its investment in CME under the cost method of accounting because CME founder and Non-Executive Chairman, Ronald S. Lauder, controlled the voting rights associated with the Companys shares in CME pursuant to a voting agreement between the parties. During the second quarter of 2013, the voting agreement ended and the Company assumed control of the voting rights associated with its shares of Class A common stock and Series A convertible preferred stock (which is convertible into shares of Class A common stock and votes with the Class A common stock on an as-converted basis). As a result of the end of the voting agreement with Mr. Lauder, the Company began accounting for its investment in the Class A common stock and Series A convertible preferred stock of CME under the equity method of accounting. The Company accounts for its investment in the Series B convertible redeemable preferred shares of CME under the cost method of accounting. In accordance with applicable accounting guidance, the Company has recast its historical financial results to reflect the presentation of its investment in the Class A common stock and Series A convertible preferred stock of CME under the equity method of accounting for all prior periods from the date of the Companys initial investment in CME in May 2009.

The decrease in Content revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2013 was primarily due to a decrease at the Film and TV Entertainment segment, partially offset by lower intersegment eliminations. The increase in Content revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 was due to lower intersegment eliminations.
Each of the revenue categories is discussed in greater detail by segment in Business Segment Results.

The increase in Subscription revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 was primarily due to an increase in domestic subscription revenues of $85 million and $268 million, respectively, driven primarily by higher domestic rates as well as an increase in international subscription revenues of $7 million and $36 million, respectively, mainly reflecting subscriber growth, which was partly offset by the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange rates.
The increase in Advertising revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 reflected domestic growth of $69 million and $215 million, respectively, mainly at Turners entertainment networks due to higher pricing and demand, which, for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, included higher demand for sports programming, primarily the NBA and the National Collegiate Athletic Association Division I Mens Basketball Championship tournament (the NCAA Tournament).

(a) | Costs of revenues exclude depreciation. |
The decrease in Costs of revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2013 primarily reflected lower programming costs, which were due to lower costs for acquired films and syndicated series and the timing of originals and sports programming. The increase in Costs of revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 was primarily due to higher originals and sports programming costs, partly offset by lower other direct operating costs, which included the impact of a reduction to a receivable allowance. Originals and sports programming costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 increased mainly due to higher costs for original series, partly offset by lower impairments related to original programming.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, Selling, general and administrative expenses increased mainly due to higher employee-related costs and, for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, higher marketing expenses. The increase in Selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 was partly offset by the absence of $21 million of exit and other 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 nine months ended September 30, 2013 included a $105 million gain that was recognized upon the Companys acquisition of the controlling interests in HBO Asia, a $2 million gain on the sale of a building and a $5 million intangible asset impairment. The results for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 also included a $9 million gain that was recognized upon the Companys acquisition of the controlling interest in HBO Nordic, a $12 million charge related to the impairment of certain of Turners international intangible assets and an $8 million charge related to Turners decision in the first quarter of 2013 to shut down certain of its entertainment networks in Spain. This charge consisted of a $6 million impairment related to programming assets and a $2 million charge related to exit costs. The results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 reflected a $6 million reversal and $199 million of charges, respectively, incurred in connection with the Imagine and TNT Turkey Shutdowns. In addition, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Networks segment incurred $2 million of other miscellaneous asset impairments.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, Restructuring and severance costs increased due largely to higher executive severance costs.
The increase in Operating Income for the three months ended September 30, 2013 was primarily due to higher Revenues and Gains on operating assets, partially offset by higher Selling, general and administrative costs and higher Restructuring and severance costs. The increase in Operating Income for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 was primarily due to higher Revenues, Gains on operating assets and lower asset impairments, partially offset by higher Restructuring and severance costs, higher Selling, general and administrative expenses and higher Costs of revenues.
The Company expects the rate of growth in the Networks segments Operating Income for the year ended December 31, 2013 to decline as compared to the first nine months of 2013 primarily due to higher programming and related marketing expenses in the fourth quarter of 2013.

theatrical films released in the first nine months of 2013, partially offset by lower carryover revenues of $54 million from prior period releases.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, Subscription revenues decreased primarily due to lower newsstand revenues.
For the three months ended September 30, 2013, Advertising revenues decreased primarily due to a $14 million decline in non-magazine advertising revenues, partly offset by growth of $7 million in magazine advertising revenues, primarily due to certain weekly titles having an additional issue as compared to the prior year period. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, Advertising revenues decreased primarily due to lower magazine advertising revenues.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the transfer of the management of the SI.com and Golf.com websites to Time Inc. from Turner in the second quarter of 2012 had a positive effect on Advertising revenues of $12 million and a $9 million negative effect on Other revenues.
Both Subscription revenues and Advertising revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 were negatively impacted by market conditions in the magazine publishing industry. The Company expects these market conditions associated with the Publishing segments Subscription revenues and Advertising revenues to continue.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, Costs of revenues decreased due primarily to lower production costs, mainly reflecting lower paper prices and reduced print volume as well as lower editorial costs primarily associated with cost savings initiatives, including savings realized from a significant restructuring in the first quarter of 2013, which mainly consisted of headcount reductions (the 2013 Restructuring). In addition, the decrease in editorial costs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 also reflected a $12 million change in the classification of certain overhead costs. Other costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 increased in part due to costs associated with the 2013 Fortune Global Forum conference.
For the three months ended September 30, 2013, Selling, general and administrative expenses increased primarily due to a $20 million increase in incentive compensation, resulting from accruals during the three months ended September 30, 2013 as compared to accrual reversals during the three months ended September 30, 2012 as well as a $12 million change in the classification of certain overhead costs, partly offset by cost savings initiatives, including savings realized from the 2013 Restructuring. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased primarily due to cost savings initiatives, including savings realized from the 2013 Restructuring.
As previously noted under Transactions and Other Items Affecting Comparability, the results for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 included $1 million of income and a $41 million loss on operating assets, respectively, in connection with the sale of the QSP Business.
The Publishing segment incurred $4 million and $58 million in net Restructuring and severance costs during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively, primarily in connection with the 2013 Restructuring.
Operating Income decreased for the three months ended September 30, 2013 primarily due to lower Revenues and higher Selling, general and administrative expenses, partially offset by lower Costs of revenues. Operating Income increased for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, primarily due to lower Costs of revenues, the absence of the $41 million loss on the sale of the QSP Business and lower Selling, general and administrative expenses, partially offset by lower Revenues and higher Restructuring and severance costs.
As a result of the Companys decision to spin off Time Inc., the Company assessed Goodwill, indefinite-lived intangible assets and long-lived assets at Time Inc. for impairment as of September, 2013, which did not result in any impairment. As of September 30, 2013, the fair value of the Time Inc. reporting unit was approximately 10% in excess of its book value. However, market conditions in the publishing industry, including declines in print advertising revenues and newsstand sales, remain challenging. In addition, to date, certain of Time Inc.s strategies and initiatives encompassed in Time Inc.s current long-range plan have not met managements original expectations. During the third quarter of 2013, Time Inc. appointed a new chief executive officer and chief financial officer, who are in the process of reviewing Time Inc.s current strategies and initiatives as well as developing new strategies and initiatives for Time Inc. as part of preparing a new long-range plan. As a result, some of Time Inc.s current strategies and initiatives could be modified, abandoned or replaced with new strategies and initiatives, which could change the Companys expectations of future cash flows. If market conditions or the Companys expectations of future cash flows are worse than the Companys current expectations, it is possible that the carrying values of the Time Inc.

reporting unit and certain of its tradenames will exceed their respective fair values, which could result in the Company recognizing a noncash impairment of goodwill or indefinite-lived intangible assets that could be material. See Note 1, Description of Business and Basis of Presentation, to the accompanying financial statements for more information.

As previously noted under Transactions and Other Items Affecting Comparability, the results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 included a $38 million gain related to the Curtailment. The results for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 included a $7 million impairment of certain internally developed software and an $8 million gain on the disposal of certain corporate assets.
For the three months ended September 30, 2013, Operating Loss decreased due primarily to the $38 million gain related to the Curtailment, partially offset by higher equity-based compensation expense of $13 million, which mainly reflected higher expenses for performance stock units due to an increase in the Companys stock price and the Companys expected performance relative to award targets. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, Operating Loss increased due primarily to higher equity-based compensation expense of $23 million, which mainly reflected higher expenses for performance stock units, and higher external costs related to mergers, acquisitions or dispositions of $20 million related to the separation of Time Inc. from Time Warner, partially offset by the $38 million gain related to the Curtailment.
Selling, general and administrative expenses included costs related to enterprise efficiency initiatives of $14 million and $13 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and $36 million and $35 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The enterprise efficiency initiatives involve the centralization of certain administrative functions to generate cost savings or other benefits for the Company.
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY
Management believes that cash generated by or available to the Company should be sufficient to fund its capital and liquidity needs for the foreseeable future, including scheduled debt repayments, quarterly dividend payments and the purchase of common stock under the Companys stock repurchase program. Time Warners sources of cash include Cash provided by operations, Cash and equivalents on hand, available borrowing capacity under its committed credit facilities and commercial paper program and access to capital markets. Time Warners unused committed capacity at September 30, 2013 was $6.587 billion, which included $1.567 billion of Cash and equivalents.
Current Financial Condition
At September 30, 2013, Time Warner had net debt of $17.596 billion ($19.163 billion of debt less $1.567 billion of Cash and equivalents) and $29.929 billion of Shareholders equity, compared to net debt of $17.030 billion ($19.871 billion of debt less $2.841 billion of Cash and equivalents) and $29.796 billion of Shareholders equity at December 31, 2012.

Purchases under the stock repurchase program may be made from time to time on the open market and in privately negotiated transactions. The size and timing of these purchases are based on a number of factors, including price and business and market conditions. From January 1, 2013 through November 1, 2013, the Company repurchased 50 million shares of common stock for $3.015 billion pursuant to trading plans under Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act).

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 and marketing businesses. Financial information for Time Warners various reportable segments is presented in Note 12, Segment Information. See Note 2, Business Dispositions, for information regarding the separation of the Publishing segment from Time Warner.
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, 2012 (the 2012 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.
Recast of Historical Financial Results - CME Investment
During the quarter ended June 30, 2013, the Company recast its historical financial results to reflect the presentation of its investment in the Class A common stock and Series A convertible preferred stock (which is convertible into Class A common stock and votes with the Class A common stock on an as-adjusted basis) of Central European Media Enterprises Ltd. (CME) under the equity method of accounting for all prior periods from the date of the Companys initial investment in CME in May 2009. For more information, see Note 3, Investments.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year financial information to conform to the September 30, 2013 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.
27
TIME WARNER INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
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.
Accounting Guidance Adopted in 2013
Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income
On January 1, 2013, the Company adopted guidance on a retrospective basis requiring disclosure of the line item in the Consolidated Statement of Operations affected by reclassification adjustments out of Accumulated other comprehensive loss, net. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements. For more information, see Note 7, Shareholders Equity.
Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities
On January 1, 2013, the Company adopted guidance on a retrospective basis requiring disclosure of additional information about the Companys ability to offset certain financial instruments, specifically derivative instruments subject to master netting arrangements. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements. For more information, see Note 6, Derivative Instruments.
Accounting for Cumulative Translation Adjustments
On January 1, 2013, the Company early adopted guidance on a prospective basis that requires the cumulative translation adjustment (CTA) related to a subsidiary or group of assets within a consolidated foreign entity to be released into earnings when an entity ceases to have a controlling financial interest in that subsidiary or group of assets and the sale or transfer results in the complete or substantially complete liquidation of the foreign entity. For the sale of an equity method investment that is a foreign entity, a pro rata portion of CTA attributable to the investment will be recognized in earnings upon the sale of the investment. CTA will also be recognized in earnings in a step acquisition transaction. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements.
Recent Accounting Guidance Not Yet Adopted
Presentation of Unrecognized Tax Benefits
In July 2013, guidance was issued that requires a liability related to an unrecognized tax benefit to be offset against a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss or a tax credit carryforward if such settlement is required or expected in the event the uncertain tax position is disallowed. In situations in which a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss or a tax credit carryforward is not available at the reporting date under the tax law of a jurisdiction or the tax law of a jurisdiction does not require it, and the Company does not intend to use the deferred tax asset for such purpose, the unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a liability and should not be combined with deferred tax assets. This guidance, which will become effective for the Company on January 1, 2014 and will be applied on a prospective basis, is not expected to have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements.
Interim Impairment Testing of Goodwill, Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets and Long-Lived Assets at Time Inc.
As discussed in more detail in Note 1, Description of Business, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Policies, to the Companys consolidated financial statements in the 2012 Form 10-K, Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are tested annually for impairment during the fourth quarter or earlier upon the occurrence of certain events or substantive changes in circumstances. Long-lived assets, including finite-lived intangible assets, do not require that an annual impairment test be performed. Instead, long-lived assets are tested for impairment upon the occurrence of a triggering event. As a result of the Companys decision to spin off Time Inc., the Company assessed Goodwill, indefinite-lived intangible assets and long-lived assets at Time Inc. for impairment as of September 30, 2013.
28
TIME WARNER INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
The September 30, 2013 impairment test did not result in an impairment of Goodwill at Time Inc. because the fair value of the Time Inc. reporting unit exceeded its carrying value by approximately 10%. Had the fair value of the Time Inc. reporting unit been less than its carrying value, the Company would have been required to perform the second step of the impairment review process to determine the ultimate amount of the impairment loss to record. The significant assumptions utilized in the impairment test included projected future cash flows from Time Inc.s 2013 budget and long-range plan, a discount rate of 11.5%, and a terminal growth rate of 2%. In addition, in conducting its impairment test, the Company considered trading multiples of comparable publicly-traded companies. For more information regarding the separation of Time Inc. from Time Warner, see Note 2, Business Acquisitions and Dispositions.
Additionally, the impairment test did not result in the impairment of any indefinite-lived intangible assets at Time Inc. because the estimated fair value of such assets exceeded their respective carrying values. To illustrate the magnitude of the potential impairment relative to future changes in estimated fair value, had the fair value of a certain tradename at Time Inc. with an aggregate carrying value of $539 million been hypothetically 10% lower as of September 30, 2013, the aggregate carrying value of that tradename would have exceeded its fair value by $47 million. The significant assumptions utilized in the impairment tests of indefinite-lived intangible assets included a discount rate of 12.0% and a terminal growth rate of 2%.
The impairment test for long-lived assets, including finite-lived intangible assets, utilized estimates of undiscounted future cash flows based on the use of the assets for their remaining useful life assuming the disposition transaction (i.e., the spin-off of the Publishing segment) does not occur. The impairment test did not result in the impairment of any long-lived assets.
Although the September 30, 2013 impairment test did not result in an impairment of goodwill or intangible assets, market conditions in the publishing industry, including declines in print advertising revenues and newsstand sales, remain challenging. In addition, to date, certain of Time Inc.s strategies and initiatives encompassed in Time Inc.s current long-range plan have not met managements original expectations. During the third quarter of 2013, Time Inc. appointed a new chief executive officer and chief financial officer, who are in the process of reviewing Time Inc.s current strategies and initiatives as well as developing new strategies and initiatives for Time Inc. as part of preparing a new long-range plan. As a result, some of Time Inc.s current strategies and initiatives could be modified, abandoned or replaced with new strategies and initiatives, which could change the Companys expectations of future cash flows. If market conditions or the Companys expectations of future cash flows are worse than the Companys current expectations, it is possible that the carrying values of the Time Inc. reporting unit and certain of its tradenames will exceed their respective fair values, which could result in the Company recognizing a noncash impairment of goodwill or indefinite-lived intangible assets that could be material.
Discontinued Operations
During the third quarter of 2013, the Company recognized additional net tax benefits associated with certain foreign tax attributes of the Warner Music Group, which the Company disposed of in 2004. The net benefit of $137 million is recognized in Discontinued operations, net of tax in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.
2. | BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSITIONS |
Acquisition
HBO Asia and HBO South Asia
In September 2013, Home Box Office purchased its partners interests in HBO Asia and HBO South Asia (collectively, HBO Asia) for $37 million in cash, net of cash acquired. HBO Asia operates HBO- and Cinemax- branded premium pay and basic tier television services serving over 15 countries in Asia. As a result of this acquisition, Home Box Office now owns 100% of HBO Asia and has consolidated their results of operations and financial condition effective September 30, 2013. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, Home Box Office recognized a $105 million gain upon the Companys acquisition of the controlling interests in HBO Asia. The operating results of HBO Asia did not have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013.
29
TIME WARNER INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
Disposition
Time Inc. Separation from Time Warner
On March 6, 2013, Time Warner announced that its Board of Directors has authorized management to proceed with plans for the complete legal and structural separation of the Companys Publishing segment from Time Warner (the Time Separation). The Time Separation is currently expected to be effected as a spin-off of Time Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary. In the Time Separation, Time Warner will distribute all of its Time Inc. common stock to Time Warner stockholders, and Time Inc. will become an independent publicly-traded company. The Time Separation is contingent on the satisfaction of a number of conditions, including the effectiveness of a registration statement on Form 10 that Time Inc. will file with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Time Warner expects to complete the Time Separation during the second quarter of 2014.
3. | INVESTMENTS |
CME
CME is a publicly-traded broadcasting company operating leading networks in six Central and Eastern European countries. During the second quarter of 2013, CME conducted a public offering of shares of its Class A common stock in which the Company purchased approximately 28.5 million shares for approximately $78 million in cash. As of September 30, 2013, the Company owned 61.4 million shares of CMEs Class A common stock and 1 share of Series A convertible preferred stock, which is convertible into 11.2 million shares of CMEs Class A common stock and votes with the Class A common stock on an as-converted basis. The combination of these holdings provide the Company with a 49.9% voting interest in CMEs common stock.
Since the Companys initial investment in CME in May 2009, CME founder and Non-Executive Chairman Ronald S. Lauder had controlled the voting rights associated with the Companys shares in CME pursuant to a voting agreement between the parties. During the second quarter of 2013, the voting agreement ended and the Company assumed control of the voting rights associated with its shares of Class A common stock and Series A convertible preferred stock. Prior to the second quarter of 2013, the Company accounted for its investment in CME under the cost method of accounting. However, as a result of the end of the voting agreement with Mr. Lauder, the Company began accounting for its investment in the Class A common stock and Series A convertible preferred stock of CME under the equity method of accounting. In accordance with applicable accounting guidance, in the second quarter of 2013 the Company recast its historical financial results to reflect the presentation of its investment in the Class A common stock and Series A convertible preferred stock of CME under the equity method of accounting for all prior periods from the date of the Companys initial investment in CME in May 2009. The recast resulted in an increase in net income of $34 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and a decrease in net income of $5 million, $17 million, $16 million and $56 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012, June 30, 2012, September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2012, respectively.
In addition, on June 25, 2013, the Company purchased $200 million of CMEs newly-issued, non-voting Series B convertible redeemable preferred shares. The Series B convertible redeemable preferred shares will accrete in value through the third anniversary of closing at an annual rate of 7.5% compounded quarterly and from the third anniversary to the fifth anniversary of closing at an annual rate of 3.75% compounded quarterly. Thereafter, the Series B convertible redeemable preferred shares will no longer accrete in value. CME has the right, beginning on the third anniversary, to pay a cash dividend to the Company in lieu of further accretion. Each Series B convertible redeemable preferred share may be converted into shares of Class A common stock at the Companys option at any time after the third anniversary of the closing. The number of shares of Class A common stock received upon conversion would be determined by dividing the accreted value of the Series B convertible redeemable preferred shares (including any accrued but unpaid dividends) by the conversion price of $3.1625. The Series B convertible redeemable preferred shares will also be redeemable at the option of CME at any time after the third anniversary of the closing; however, upon notice from CME of a proposed redemption, the Company may elect to receive cash or shares of Class A common stock. The Company accounts for its investment in the Series B convertible redeemable preferred shares of CME under the cost method of accounting.

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 September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively (millions):

The Companys other financial instruments, including debt, are not required to be carried at fair value. Based on the interest rates prevailing at September 30, 2013, the fair value of Time Warners debt exceeded its carrying value by approximately $2.703 billion and, based on interest rates prevailing at December 31, 2012, the fair value of Time Warners debt exceeded its carrying value by approximately $4.622 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, differences between the carrying value and fair value were not significant at September 30, 2013. 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.
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company was required to perform impairment reviews of certain long-lived assets at certain Turner international subsidiaries. As a result of its reviews, the Company recorded noncash impairments of $5 million and $17 million, respectively, to write down the value of certain intangible assets to zero. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company was required to perform an impairment review of certain long-lived assets at Imagine, Turners general entertainment network in India. As a result of its review, the Company recorded a noncash impairment of $19 million to write down the value of certain long-lived assets, primarily intangible assets, to zero. In both periods, the resulting fair value measurements 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.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
In determining the fair value of its theatrical 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.) plus a risk premium representing the risk associated with producing a particular theatrical film. The fair value of any theatrical film and television production that management plans to abandon is zero. As the primary determination of fair value is determined using a DCF model, the resulting fair value is considered a Level 3 measurement. The following table presents certain theatrical film and television production costs, which were recorded as inventory in the Consolidated Balance Sheet, that were written down to fair value (millions):

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 Warners 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.
Gains and losses from hedging activities recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Operations, including hedge ineffectiveness, were not material for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012. In addition, such gains and losses were largely offset by corresponding economic gains or losses from the respective transactions that were hedged.
The Company monitors its positions with, and the credit quality of, the financial institutions that are party to its financial transactions and has entered into collateral agreements with certain of these counterparties to further protect the Company in the event of deterioration of the credit quality of such counterparties on outstanding transactions. Additionally, netting provisions are included in agreements in situations where the Company executes multiple contracts with the same counterparty. The Company offsets the fair values of the foreign exchange derivatives contracts executed with the same counterparty and classifies that amount as a net asset or net liability within Prepaid expenses and other current assets or Accounts payable and accrued liabilities, respectively, in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The following is a summary of amounts recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheet pertaining to Time Warners use of foreign currency derivatives at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 (millions):
September 30, 2013(a) |

(b) | Includes $79 million ($69 million of qualifying hedges and $10 million of economic hedges) and $101 million ($81 million of qualifying hedges and $20 million of economic hedges) of foreign exchange derivative contracts in asset and liability positions, respectively. |
At September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, $31 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 $21 million and $8 million at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, related to hedges of cash flows associated with films that are not expected to be released within the next twelve months.

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. (TWC) 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 $966 million (for a net present value of $414 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 the Guaranteed Obligations, and no liability for the arrangements has been recognized at September 30, 2013. 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 January 10, 2013, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit reversed the district courts decision to grant summary judgment in plaintiffs favor, holding that the parties reached a binding settlement agreement in 2001, and directed the district court to reconsider its ruling on DC Comics counterclaims challenging the validity of the plaintiffs termination notices. By orders dated March 20, 2013, April 18, 2013, and June 18, 2013, the district court, among other things, granted summary judgment and entered final judgment in this lawsuit and the related Superboy lawsuit, described below, in DC Comics favor, ruling that the plaintiffs had transferred any and all rights in the Superman and Superboy properties to DC Comics in 2001 pursuant to a binding settlement agreement. On July 16, 2013, the plaintiffs filed a notice of appeal from the final judgment to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit.

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. As described in the paragraph above regarding the Superman lawsuit, by orders dated April 18, 2013 and June 18, 2013, the district court, among other things, entered final judgment in DC Comics favor, ruling that the plaintiffs had transferred any and all rights in the Superman and Superboy properties to DC Comics in 2001 pursuant to a binding settlement agreement. On July 16, 2013, the plaintiffs filed a notice of appeal from the final judgment to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit.
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 asserts state law-based claims, including seeking declaratory relief with respect to, inter alia, the validity of various agreements between Mr. Toberoff, his companies and the Shuster and Siegel heirs, and 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 17, 2012, the district court granted partial summary judgment in favor of DC Comics, holding that, among other things, the copyright termination notice served by the Shuster heirs is invalid and the agreements referenced above interfered with DC Comics rights under the copyright termination provisions. On December 11, 2012, defendants filed a notice of appeal of the district courts ruling with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. On April 4, 2013, the district court granted summary judgment in favor of defendants on DC Comics intentional interference claims and denied without prejudice summary judgment on the unfair competition-based claim pending resolution of defendants appeal before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit.
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 newsgathering 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 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 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 appealed and, on April 3, 2012, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit vacated the district courts dismissal of the complaint and remanded the case to the district court. On January 7, 2013, the U.S. Supreme Court denied defendants petition for writ of certiorari to review the judgment of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit vacating the district courts dismissal of the complaint. The case continues to proceed before the district court.
In April 2013, the Internal Revenue Service (the IRS) Appeals Division issued a notice of deficiency to the Company relating to the appropriate tax characterization of stock warrants received from a third party in 2002. On May 6, 2013, the Company filed a petition with the United States Tax Court seeking a redetermination of the deficiency set forth in the
42
TIME WARNER INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
notice. The Companys petition asserts that the IRS erred in determining that the stock warrants were taxable upon exercise (in 2004) rather than at the date of grant based on, among other things, a misapplication of Section 83 of the Internal Revenue Code. Should the IRS prevail in this litigation, the additional tax payable by the Company would be approximately $70 million.
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 $65 million at September 30, 2013. 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 nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company recorded net decreases to income tax reserves of approximately $11 million, of which approximately $8 million impacted the Companys effective tax rate for continuing operations. In addition, the Company recorded $63 million of tax reserves related to discontinued foreign operations. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company recorded increases to interest reserves related to the income tax reserves of approximately $12 million.
In the Companys judgment, uncertainties related to certain tax matters are reasonably possible of being resolved during the next twelve months. The effect of such resolution, which could vary based on the final terms and timing of actual settlements with taxing authorities, is estimated to be a reduction of recorded unrecognized tax benefits ranging from $20 million to $650 million, most of which would decrease the Companys effective tax rate.
14. | RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS |
The Company has entered into certain transactions in the ordinary course of business with unconsolidated investees accounted for under the equity method of accounting. These transactions have been executed on terms comparable to the terms of transactions with unrelated third parties and primarily include the licensing of broadcast rights to The CW broadcast network for television product by the Film and TV Entertainment segment and the licensing of rights to carry cable television programming provided by the Networks segment. Amounts resulting from transactions with related parties consist of (millions):

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 $108 million and $130 million were recorded in Costs of revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and $351 million and $300 million were recorded in Costs of revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
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 nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 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 on 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.

Purchases under the stock repurchase program may be made, from time to time, on the open market and in privately negotiated transactions. The size and timing of these purchases will be based on a number of factors, including price and business and market conditions. In the past, the Company has repurchased shares of its common stock pursuant to trading plans under Rule 10b5-1 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and it may repurchase shares of its common stock utilizing such trading plans in the future. |
On October 31, 2013, the Board of Directors elected Carlos M. Gutierrez as a director of the Company, effective immediately. In connection with his election, the Board determined that Mr. Gutierrez is an independent director. Mr. Gutierrez was elected to a newly-created position on the Board, bringing the total number of directors of the Company to 12, 11 of whom are independent. Mr. Gutierrez has not yet been appointed to serve on any committees of the Board.
Mr. Gutierrez currently serves as Vice Chair of Albright Stonebridge Group, a global strategy firm. Mr. Gutierrez was employed by Kellogg Company for nearly 30 years, serving as its Chairman and CEO from April 2000 until February 2005 after becoming President and CEO of Kellogg Company in 1999. Mr. Gutierrez served as the 35th U.S. Secretary of Commerce from February 2005 to January 2009. From January 2011 to February 2013, Mr. Gutierrez served as Vice Chairman of the Institutional Clients Group and as a member of the Senior Strategic Advisory Group at Citigroup Inc.
Upon his election as a director, Mr. Gutierrez received a pro-rated portion of the annual compensation for non-employee directors for his service until the Companys 2014 annual meeting of stockholders. Mr. Gutierrez received $72,917 in cash and on October 31, 2013 was granted 1,341 stock options and 721 restricted stock units (RSUs).
A description of the Companys non-employee director compensation is included in the Companys proxy statement for its 2013 annual meeting of stockholders filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 8, 2013 (the 2013 Proxy Statement). The terms of the stock options and RSUs granted to Mr. Gutierrez are the same as the stock options and RSUs described in the 2013 Proxy Statement for grants made to non-employee directors. The stock options and RSUs were granted from the Time Warner Inc. 2013 Stock Incentive Plan, which is described in the 2013 Proxy Statement.
