Debt Disclosure [Abstract]

Long-Term Debt

A summary of our debt as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 is as follows:


	June 30, 2023						December 31, 2022
	Principal Amount		Carrying Value		Fair Value		Principal Amount		Carrying Value		Fair Value
Senior unsecured notes	$	27,250	$	27,161	$	23,303	$	26,650	$	26,567	$	22,426



Senior secured notes and debentures(a)	55,919		56,272		46,951		56,841		57,213		46,905



Credit facilities(b)	14,591		14,537		14,203		13,877		13,823		13,467
	$	97,760	$	97,970	$	84,457	$	97,368	$	97,603	$	82,798

(a)Includes the Company's £625 million fixed-rate British pound sterling denominated notes (the “Sterling Notes”) (remeasured at $794 million and $755 million as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, using the exchange rate at the respective dates) and the Company's £650 million aggregate principal amount of Sterling Notes (remeasured at $825 million and $786 million as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, using the exchange rate at the respective dates).

(b)The Company has availability under the Charter Communications Operating, LLC ("Charter Operating") credit facilities of approximately $3.2 billion as of June 30, 2023.

The estimated fair value of the Company’s senior unsecured and secured notes and debentures as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 is based on quoted market prices in active markets and is classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy, while the estimated fair value of the Company’s credit facilities is based on quoted market prices in inactive markets and is classified within Level 2.

In February 2023, CCO Holdings and CCO Holdings Capital Corp. jointly issued $1.1 billion of 7.375% senior unsecured notes due March 2031 at par. The net proceeds were used for general corporate purposes, including repaying certain indebtedness, distributions to the Company's parent companies to fund buybacks of Charter Class A common stock and Charter Holdings common units and to pay related fees and expenses.

In February 2023, Charter Operating entered into an amendment to its credit agreement to replace London Interbank Offering Rate ("LIBOR") as the benchmark rate applicable to the Term B loans with Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") and in March 2023, Charter Operating entered into another amendment to its credit agreement to incur a new Term B-3 loan with an

aggregate principal amount of $750 million maturing in 2030 concurrently with the cancelation of certain of Charter Operating's existing Term B-1 and B-2 loans, among other amendments. Pricing on the new Term B-3 loan is SOFR plus 2.25%. After giving effect to the amendments, the aggregate principal amount of Term B-1 loans is $2.3 billion with pricing unchanged at SOFR plus 1.75% and the aggregate principal amount of Term B-2 loans is $3.1 billion with pricing unchanged at SOFR plus 1.75%.

As of July 1, 2023, the United Kingdom’s Financial Conduct Authority, which regulates LIBOR, ceased publishing remaining U.S. Dollar LIBOR rates. The Charter Operating senior secured floating rate notes due 2024 (the "Floating Rate Notes") used LIBOR as a benchmark for establishing the interest rate of the Floating Rate Notes. As of July 1, 2023, SOFR is being used as the benchmark replacement for calculations of the amount of interest payable on the Floating Rate Notes with respect to interest periods with interest determination dates occurring after June 30, 2023.

Losses on extinguishment of debt are recorded in other income (expenses), net in the consolidated statements of operations and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 was $3 million as a result of the Charter Operating credit facility refinancing and Charter Operating notes redemption.

Commitment and Contingencies	6 Months Ended
Commitment and Contingencies	Jun. 30, 2023
Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Contingencies	Contingencies In August 2015, a purported stockholder of Charter, Matthew Sciabacucchi, filed a lawsuit in the Delaware Court of Chancery, on behalf of a putative class of Charter stockholders, challenging the transactions involving Charter, Time Warner Cable Inc., Advance/Newhouse Partnership's, and Liberty Broadband announced by Charter on May 26, 2015. The lawsuit, which named as defendants Charter and its board of directors, alleged that the transactions resulted from breaches of fiduciary duty by Charter’s directors and that Liberty Broadband improperly benefited from the challenged transactions at the expense of other Charter stockholders. On January 12, 2023, the parties reached a tentative agreement to settle the lawsuit. The court approved the settlement at a fairness hearing on June 22, 2023, resulting in a net payment to Charter on June 26, 2023 and the dismissal of the lawsuit. In the previously disclosed lawsuit of William Goff, as Personal Representative of Betty Jo McClain Thomas, deceased, et al. v. Roy James Holden, Jr. and Charter Communications, LLC, Case No. CC-20-01579-E, in County Court at Law No. 5 for Dallas County, Texas, the settlement was finalized and paid, and the case was dismissed on June 22, 2023. The Company is a defendant or co-defendant in several lawsuits involving alleged infringement of various intellectual property relating to various aspects of its businesses. Other industry participants are also defendants in certain of these cases or related cases. In the event that a court ultimately determines that the Company infringes on any intellectual property, the Company may be subject to substantial damages and/or an injunction that could require the Company or its vendors to modify certain products and services the Company offers to its subscribers, as well as negotiate royalty or license agreements with respect to the intellectual property at issue. While the Company believes the lawsuits are without merit and intends to defend the actions vigorously, no assurance can be given that any adverse outcome would not be material to the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or liquidity. The Company cannot predict the outcome of any such claims nor can it reasonably estimate a range of possible loss. The Company is party to other lawsuits, claims and regulatory inquiries that arise in the ordinary course of conducting its business. The ultimate outcome of these other legal matters pending against the Company cannot be predicted, and although such lawsuits and claims are not expected individually to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations or liquidity, such lawsuits could have, in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. Whether or not the Company ultimately prevails in any particular lawsuit or claim, litigation can be time consuming and costly and injure the Company’s reputation.

- Definition

The entire disclosure for loss and gain contingencies. Describes any existing condition, situation, or set of circumstances involving uncertainty as of the balance sheet date (or prior to issuance of the financial statements) as to a probable or reasonably possible loss incurred by an entity that will ultimately be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur, and typically discloses the amount of loss recorded or a range of possible loss, or an assertion that no reasonable estimate can be made.
