#14th QUARTER AND FULL-YEAR January 23, 2020 2019 RESULTS COMCAST#2Important Information 2 Caution Concerning Forward-Looking Statements This presentation contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. In some cases, you can identify these so-called "forward-looking statements" by words such as "may," "will," "should," "expects," "plans," "anticipates," "believes," "estimates," "predicts," "potential," or "continue," or the negative of these and other comparable words. We wish to take advantage of the "safe harbor" provided for by this Act, and we caution you that actual events or results may differ materially from the expectations we express in our forward-looking statements as a result of various risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control. Factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from these forward-looking statements include: (1) changes in the competitive environment, (2) changes in business and economic conditions, (3) changes in our programming costs, (4) changes in laws and regulations, (5) changes in technology, (6) loss of key vendors, (7) adverse decisions in litigation matters, (8) risks associated with strategic initiatives, including the development of Peacock, and acquisitions such as Sky, (9) changes in assumptions underlying our critical accounting judgments and estimates, and (10) other risks described from time to time in reports and other documents we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements. The amount and timing of share repurchases and dividends is subject to business, economic and other relevant factors. Non-GAAP Financial Measures Our presentation may also contain non-GAAP financial measures, as defined in Regulation G, adopted by the SEC. We provide reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure in our Form 8-K (Quarterly Earnings Release) announcing our quarterly earnings and in our trending schedules, which can be found on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov and our website at www.cmcsa.com.

In connection with the adoption, we implemented changes in classification for our Cable Communications segment's high-speed internet, video, voice, business services and other revenues and costs and expenses. In addition, the new guidance impacted the timing of recognition for Cable Communications installation revenue and commissions expense, and Cable Networks, Broadcast Television and Filmed Entertainment content licensing renewals and extensions. These changes affected Adjusted EBITDA for Comcast Consolidated and the Cable Communications, Cable Networks, Broadcast Television and Filmed Entertainment segments. We adopted the guidance using the full retrospective method and all periods presented within this presentation have been adjusted. Beginning in the first quarter of 2019, Comcast Cable's wireless phone service and certain other Cable-related business development initiatives are now presented in the Cable Communications segment. Results were previously presented in Corporate and Other. Prior periods have been adjusted to reflect this presentation. To be consistent with our current management reporting presentation, certain 2018 and 2017 operating results were reclassified within the Cable Communications segment and certain 2018 and 2017 operating results were reclassified related to certain NBCUniversal businesses now presented in the Sky segment. 1. We define Free Cash Flow as net cash provided by operating activities (as stated in our Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows) reduced by capital expenditures and cash paid for intangible assets. From time to time, we may exclude from Free Cash Flow the impact of certain cash receipts or payments (such as significant legal settlements) that affect period-to-period comparability. Cash payments for acquisitions and construction of real estate properties and the construction of Universal Beijing Resort are presented separately in our Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows and are therefore excluded from capital expenditures for Free Cash Flow. Please refer to our Form 8-K (Quarterly Earnings Release) for a reconciliation and further details. 2. 3. 4. 6. 7. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income attributable to Comcast Corporation before net income (loss) attributable to non controlling interests and redeemable subsidiary preferred stock, income tax expense, investment and other income (loss), net, interest expense, depreciation and amortization expense, and other operating gains and losses (such as impairment charges related to fixed and intangible assets and gains or losses on the sale of long-lived assets), if any. From time to time, we may exclude from Adjusted EBITDA the impact of certain events, gains, losses or other charges (such as significant legal settlements) that affect the period-to-period comparability of our operating performance. Please refer to our Form 8-K (Quarterly Earnings Release) for a reconciliation and further details. 11 Cable Communications Net Cash Flow is defined as Cable Communications Adjusted EBITDA reduced by capital expenditures and cash paid for capitalized software and other intangible assets. Please refer to our trending schedules for a reconciliation and further details. 5. Sky constant currency growth rates are calculated by comparing the current period results to the comparative period results in the prior year adjusted to reflect the average exchange rates from the current year period rather than the actual exchange rates in effect during the respective prior year periods. Please refer to our Form 8-K (Quarterly Earnings Release) for a reconciliation of constant currency and further details. Please refer to our Form 8-K (Quarterly Earnings Release) for a reconciliation of consolidated earnings per share on an adjusted basis. Consolidated net debt of $96.2Bn represents long-term debt, including current portion (as stated in our Consolidated Balance Sheet), adjusted to exclude $1.3Bn of Universal Beijing Resort debt, plus $725MM of NBCUniversal Enterprise, Inc. preferred stock, less cash and cash equivalents (as stated in our Consolidated Balance Sheet). Amounts owed under a collateralized obligation are presented separately in our Consolidated Balance Sheet and are therefore excluded from consolidated net debt. Consolidated net debt/Adjusted EBITDA is calculated based on trailing 12 month Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA for the twelve months ended December 31, 2019 was $34.3Bn, as presented in our trending schedules. Pro Forma information is presented as if the Sky transaction occurred January 1, 2017. Our pro forma information is based on historical results of operations and are primarily adjusted for the effects of acquisition accounting and the elimination of costs and expenses directly attributable to the transaction. These amounts are not necessarily indicative of future results or what our results would have been had we operated Sky since January 1, 2017. COMCAST#12COMCAST
