Description: CHTR Charter Communications September 29, 2025

Charter Communications, Inc. (NASDAQ:CHTR) is a U.S. broadband and cable operator that serves both residential and commercial customers with subscription-based internet, video, mobile, and voice services. Its portfolio includes fixed-line broadband (Spectrum internet), advanced in-home Wi-Fi solutions, out-of-home Wi-Fi, VoIP voice, and a suite of business-focused connectivity products such as fiber, data networking, and wholesale carrier services. The company also monetizes its media assets through local advertising sales for networks like TBS, CNN, ESPN, and its own regional sports and news channels, and offers a data-driven advertising platform (Audience App) for local marketers.

As of Q3 2024, Charter reported approximately 31 million total customers, with broadband ARPU of $73 and an EBITDA margin near 63%, generating roughly $5.2 billion in quarterly revenue and $2.5 billion in free cash flow. Key economic drivers include sustained demand for high-speed internet amid remote-work trends, while sector pressures stem from cord-cutting, inflation-squeezed consumer spending, and the company’s high leverage (debt-to-EBITDA ~3.2×) that makes interest-rate movements material to earnings. Capital-expenditure plans remain focused on expanding fiber footprints and upgrading Wi-Fi infrastructure to support 5G-compatible services.
