Investments Measured Using the Net Asset Value per Share Practical Expedient

Fair Value Measurement

Accounting guidance provides a framework for measuring fair value. That framework provides a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described as follows:

•Level 1 - inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

•Level 2 - inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.

•Level 3 - inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for assets measured at fair value. The net asset value ("NAV") practical expedient to fair value is used for certain investments as of December 31, 2025 and 2024. There have been no changes in the methodologies used at December 31, 2025 and 2024.

Cash and cash equivalents. Consists of money market funds which are stated at cost which approximate fair value.

Charter Communications, Inc. common stock and other common stocks. Valued at the closing price reported on the active market on which the individual securities are traded. No single industry comprised a significant portion of common stock held by the Master Trust as of December 31, 2025 or 2024.

Charter Communications, Inc. common stock fund. Primarily consists of Charter Communications, Inc. common stock and a short-term cash component that provides liquidity for daily trading. Valued based on the performance of

Charter Communications, Inc. and its stock, the overall stock market, and the performance and amount of short-term investments held by the fund, less any expenses accrued against the fund.

Mutual funds. Valued at the daily closing price as reported by the fund. Mutual funds held by the Master Trust are open-end mutual funds that are registered with the SEC. These funds are required to publish their daily NAV and to transact at that price. The mutual funds held by the Master Trust are deemed to be actively traded.

Collective trust funds. Valued using the NAV provided by the manager of the fund. The NAV is based on the fair value of the underlying assets owned by the fund, less liabilities, and then divided by the number of units outstanding.

The Master Trust's investment assets as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy, with the exception of Charter Communications, Inc. common stock fund which is classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Classification within the fair value hierarchy table is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. See Note 3.

EBP, Description of Plan [Line Items]

Description of Plan

The following description of the Charter Communications, Inc. Retirement Accumulation Plan (the "Plan") is provided for general information purposes only. Participants should refer to the Plan agreement for more complete information.

General

The Plan is a defined contribution, profit sharing, single employer plan administered by Charter Communications, Inc. ("Charter," "Company" or "Plan Administrator") under the provisions of Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended ("IRC"), which includes a qualified deferred arrangement as defined in Section 401(k) of the IRC, for the benefit of eligible employees of Charter as defined in the Plan agreement. The Plan covers employees of Charter and its subsidiaries, collectively referred to herein as the Company. The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA").

Plan Administration

Fidelity Management Trust Company ("Fidelity"), the Recordkeeper and Trustee, as defined below, holds the Plan's investment assets and executes investment transactions.

Master Trust

The assets of the Plan, along with the assets of the Charter Communications, Inc. 401(k) Savings Plan (the "401(k)"), are invested in the Charter Communications, Inc. Defined Contribution Plans Master Trust (the "Master Trust"), for which the trustee is Fidelity (the "Trustee"). The Plan and the 401(k) are the only participating plans in the Master Trust. The Master Trust, through its investment managers, invests in a variety of investment funds ("Investment Funds").

Eligibility

Most employees of the Company become eligible to participate in the Plan on the first day of the calendar month coinciding with or following 90 days of employment. Most employees are generally eligible to participate. Employees covered by a collective bargaining agreement are not covered by this Plan unless their agreement expressly states eligibility.

Contributions

Employees may not contribute to the Plan. The employer contribution equals 3% of the participant's eligible payroll compensation. Effective January 1, 2025, employer contributions are made to the Plan annually following the close of that plan year provided the employee was employed by the Company on December 31 of that year.

The Plan, in accordance with the IRC, could not recognize compensation in excess of $350 thousand for 2025, for purposes of contributions (which amounts will be adjusted in future years for cost-of-living increases).

Asset Transfer from Qualified Defined Benefit Pension Plan

In 2025, Charter terminated its qualified pension plan which resulted in excess plan assets of approximately $80.3 million being transferred to the Plan as a transfer to a qualified replacement plan. This amount was used to fund a portion of the 2025 nonelective employer contributions.

Participant Accounts

Each participant may designate the percentage of contributions to be allocated to each of the available Investment Funds. In the absence of an investment election, contributions will be allocated to a default Investment Fund as designated by the Plan Administrator.

Each participant's account is credited with the Company's contribution and an allocation of earnings. Allocations of earnings are based on account balances on a pro rata basis, as described in the Plan agreement. Participant accounts are charged with an allocation of administrative expenses that are paid by the Plan. The benefit to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from the participant's vested account balance.

Vesting

Company contributions and the earnings thereon generally vest based upon a number of full years of service within a period of service, as defined in the Plan, as follows:


			Vested
Number of Full Years within Period of Service			Percentage
Less than 3			—%
3 or more			100%

Nonvested amounts are forfeited if an employee terminates prior to fully vesting. In the event of the death or disability of a participant, the participant will automatically become fully vested.

Payment of Benefits

A lump sum cash distribution is the default distribution of a participant's vested portion of their account; however, upon termination of service or attainment of normal retirement age, there is no requirement for participants to commence payment of their vested benefit prior to age 73. Benefits distributed from all Investment Funds are paid in cash.

Forfeitures

Forfeited amounts may be used to reduce the amount of employer contributions and fees to the Plan. The total amount of unallocated forfeitures at December 31, 2025 and 2024 was $21.4 million and $974 thousand, respectively. Forfeitures used to reduce the amount of employer contributions and/or administrative expenses during the year ended December 31, 2025 were $1 thousand. In 2026, the Plan utilized $22.4 million of forfeitures to fund 2025 nonelective employer contributions.

Investments

As of December 31, 2025, the Investment Funds available under the Plan consisted of three core actively managed funds, four passive index funds, ten target retirement date funds, a stable value fund, and a mutual fund window (a self-directed brokerage account). Employees may invest in shares of Charter Communications, Inc. Class A common stock. This investment is offered as a real-time traded investment option.

Company contributions are generally invested in specific increments in the Investment Funds. Participants are able to transfer account balances among the Investment Funds.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies) - EBP 003	12 Months Ended
	Dec. 31, 2025
EBP, Accounting Policy [Line Items]
Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting.
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") requires the Plan Administrator to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of additions to and deductions from net assets available for benefits during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Contributions	Contributions Employer contributions are accrued in the period that payroll deductions are made from plan participants in accordance with salary deferral agreements and as such, become obligations of the Company and assets of the Plan.
Investment Valuation and Income Recognition	Investment Valuation and Income Recognition Investments held by the Plan are stated at fair value, except for fully-benefit responsive investment contracts which are stated at contract value. Fair value is the price which would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (an exit price). See Note 4 for further discussion and disclosures related to fair value measurements. Contract value is the relevant measure for the portion of the net assets available for benefits of a defined contribution plan attributable to fully-benefit responsive investment contracts because contract value is the amount participants normally receive if they were to initiate permitted transactions under the terms of the Plan. See Note 6 for further discussion and disclosures related to contract value. Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Net appreciation (depreciation) in fair value of investments includes the Plan's gains and losses on investments bought and sold as well as held during the year.
Administrative Expenses	Administrative Expenses Salaries and related benefits of employees under the Plan are provided by the Company. Other administrative expenses, primarily transaction fees and account fees, are paid by the Plan for active employees. Beginning January 1, 2025, the recordkeeping administrative expense will be assessed to the applicable participant's account. Investment related expenses are included in net investment gain (loss) in the Statement of Changes in Net Assets Available for Benefits.
Payment of Benefits	Payment of Benefits Benefit payments are recorded when paid.
Subsequent Events	Subsequent Events The Plan has evaluated subsequent events through June 18, 2026, the date the financial statements were available to be issued.

Disclosure of accounting policy for use of estimate in preparation of financial statement of employee stock purchase, saving, or similar plan (employee benefit plan (EBP)).
