NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Organization
Cablevision Investment of Detroit, Inc. (the "Company"), an approximate
96.5% owned subsidiary of Maclean Hunter Cable TV, Inc. ("Cable TV"), a
Michigan corporation, is a general partner which holds a 10% partnership
interest in Comcast Cablevision of Detroit (formerly Barden Cablevision and
referred to herein as the "Partnership"), a Michigan general partnership.
The Partnership operates a cable communications system pursuant to a
franchise agreement with the city of Detroit, Michigan (the "City").
Effective December 22, 1994 (see Note 2), Cable TV became an indirect
majority owned subsidiary of Comcast Corporation ("Comcast"), a
Pennsylvania corporation which is a publicly owned company.
Basis of Presentation
The condensed balance sheet at December 31, 1994 has been condensed from
the audited balance sheet at that date. The condensed balance sheet at
March 31, 1995 and the condensed statements of operations and accumulated
deficit and of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 1995 and
1994 have been prepared by the Company and have not been audited by the
Company's Independent Auditors. In the opinion of management, all
adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to
present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows
as of March 31, 1995 and for all periods presented have been made.
Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the Company's
annual financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. These condensed
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and notes thereto included in the Company's December 31, 1994
Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission. The results of operations for the period ended March 31, 1995
are not necessarily indicative of operating results for the full year.
Net (Loss) Income Per Share
Net (loss) income per share is based on the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding. The Company has no common share equivalents
outstanding.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1994 financial statements
to conform with the classifications used in 1995.
2. MACLEAN HUNTER ACQUISITION
On March 31, 1994, Rogers Communications Inc. ("RCI") acquired
substantially all of the outstanding shares of capital stock of Maclean
Hunter Limited, which was formerly the parent of Maclean Hunter, Inc.
("MHI"). On December 22, 1994, pursuant to a share purchase agreement
between Comcast and RCI, Comcast MH Holdings, Inc. ("MH Holdings")
purchased all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of MHI
and, in conjunction with a separate agreement with the shareholders of
Comcast Michigan Holdings, Inc. (formerly Barden Communications, Inc. and
referred to herein as "CMH"), acquired all of the issued and outstanding
shares of capital stock of CMH, for an aggregate purchase price of
approximately $1.2 billion (subject to certain adjustments) in cash (the
purchase of the shares of MHI is referred to herein as the "MHI Share
Purchase" and, together with the purchase of the CMH shares, as the "Share
Purchase"). MH Holdings is an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Comcast
MHCP Holdings, L.L.C. ("MHCP"), a Delaware limited liability corporation.
MHCP is owned 55% by a wholly owned subsidiary of Comcast and 45% by the
California Public Employees' Retirement System ("CalPERS"), and is managed
by Comcast. The MHI Share Purchase resulted in a change
<PAGE>6
CABLEVISION INVESTMENT OF DETROIT, INC.
FORM 10-Q
QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 1995
NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED
(Unaudited)
of control of the Company because Cable TV, the Company's parent, became an
indirect wholly owned subsidiary of MH Holdings. In addition, the Share
Purchase resulted in a change of control of the Partnership because the
partners became substantially indirect wholly owned subsidiaries of MH
Holdings.
As a result of the Share Purchase, a new cost basis was established for the
purchased assets and liabilities. The financial position of the Company and
the Partnership as of March 31, 1995 and December 31, 1994, and their
results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 1995, reflect an
allocation of the purchase price for the Share Purchase to the assets and
liabilities of the Company and the Partnership based on relative estimated
market values. Such allocation is preliminary pending, among other things,
the final purchase price adjustment between Comcast and RCI. Financial
information prior to the Share Purchase with respect to the Company and the
Partnership has been presented herein as "Predecessor Corporation" and
"Predecessor Partnership," respectively.
3. INVESTMENT IN COMCAST CABLEVISION OF DETROIT
The Company accounts for its investment in the Partnership under the equity
method. The Company records its investment at cost and adjusts the recorded
investment periodically to recognize the Company's proportionate share of
the Partnership's net income or loss after the date of investment, as well
as any additional contributions made and distributions received.
The following is summarized financial information with respect to the
Partnership:

</TABLE>
Prior to the Share Purchase, the Company was allocated 10.2% of the
Partnership's net income or loss. Contemporaneously with the Share
Purchase, Detroit Cable TV, Inc. ("Detroit Cable"), a wholly owned
subsidiary of Cable TV, exercised its option to acquire additional
interests in the Partnership of 0.2% from the Company and 0.8% from CMH for
consideration previously provided. Following the Share Purchase, Detroit
Cable, CMH and the Company hold interests of 50%, 40% and 10%,
respectively, in the Partnership. As a result of the Share Purchase, the
Company's recorded investment balance was increased to 10% of the new basis
of the Partnership's net assets.
Related Party Transactions
Effective December 22, 1994, management fees are charged to the Partnership
pursuant to a management agreement between Comcast and MH Holdings (the
"Management Agreement"). Under the terms of the Management Agreement,
Comcast will supervise the management and operation of the Partnership for
compensation equal to 4.5% of the Partnership's gross revenues, with
payment of one-third of such fees being deferred by MH Holdings. In
addition, the Management Agreement provides for the reimbursement and
sharing of certain of Comcast's actual costs relating to the operations of
MH Holdings, including the operations of the Partnership. For the three
months ended March 31, 1995, the Partnership was charged $747,000 under the
Management Agreement.
Effective December 22, 1994, the Partnership is also charged by Comcast for
certain operating expenses under a separate agreement between Comcast and
MH Holdings (the "Cost Sharing Agreement"). These expenses are charged to
MH Holdings, and ultimately the Partnership, by Comcast on the same basis
that approximates what would have been charged if it purchased directly
from the supplier, subject to certain adjustments and limitations. For the
three months ended March 31, 1995, the amount charged to the Partnership
under the Cost Sharing Agreement was $4.7 million.
Through November 30, 1994, the Partnership paid to Cable Management of
Detroit, a partnership formed by Cable TV and CMH, a monthly fee equal to
6% of the Partnership's gross revenues. Fees incurred for the three months
ended March 31, 1994 totalled $960,000.
<PAGE>8
CABLEVISION INVESTMENT OF DETROIT, INC.
FORM 10-Q
QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 1995
NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONCLUDED
(Unaudited)
Through December 21, 1994, the Partnership purchased certain services
jointly with an affiliate owned by Cable TV. Reimbursement to the affiliate
for these services for the three months ended March 31, 1994 totalled $1.8
million.
Commitments and Contingencies
The Partnership is subject to legal proceedings and claims which arise in
the ordinary course of its business. In the opinion of management, the
amount of ultimate liability with respect to these actions will not
materially affect the financial position and results of operations of the
Partnership.
On March 30, 1994, the Federal Communications Commission ("FCC"), among
other things, adopted interim regulations to govern cost-of-service
showings by cable operators, establishing an industry-wide 11.25% after tax
rate of return and a rebuttable presumption that acquisition costs above
original historic book value of tangible assets should be excluded from the
rate base; and reconsidered, among other matters, its regulations
concerning rates for the addition of regulated services and the treatment
of packages of "a la carte" channels. The Partnership is currently seeking
to justify certain of its existing rates on the basis of cost-of-service
showings at the City. Although management believes that the Partnership's
rates are supportable in a cost of service proceeding, no assurance can be
given that the Partnership will be successful. If the Partnership is not
successful in such efforts, and there is no legislative, administrative or
judicial relief, the FCC regulations may adversely affect the Partnership's
results of operations.
4. STATEMENT OF CASH FLOWS - SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION
In connection with the Share Purchase, MH Holdings entered into an $850.0
million credit agreement with certain lenders (the "Credit Agreement"). On
December 22, 1994, the Partnership entered into a loan assumption agreement
(the "Assumption Agreement") with MH Holdings whereby the Partnership,
along with certain other subsidiaries of MH Holdings, would assume a
portion of MH Holdings' obligations under the Credit Agreement. The
Partnership's allocated portion of the total commitment under the Credit
Agreement was $184.1 million, of which $154.9 million was outstanding as of
December 31, 1994. During the three months ended March 31, 1995, additional
borrowings were made under the Credit Agreement and the Partnership was
allocated an additional $4.3 million pursuant to the Assumption Agreement.
This resulted in a corresponding decrease in partners' capital. The Company
has recorded a decrease in its investment in the Partnership for its
proportionate share of this assumed liability of $433,000, with a
corresponding decrease in additional capital. This transaction has been
excluded from the Company's condensed statement of cash flows due to its
noncash nature.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
Organization
Cablevision Investment of Detroit, Inc. (the "Company"), an approximate 96.5%
owned subsidiary of Maclean Hunter Cable TV, Inc. ("Cable TV"), a Michigan
corporation, is a general partner which holds a 10% partnership interest in
Comcast Cablevision of Detroit (formerly Barden Cablevision and referred to
herein as the "Partnership"), a Michigan general partnership. The Partnership
operates a cable communications system (the "System") pursuant to a franchise
agreement with the city of Detroit, Michigan (the "City"). Effective December
22, 1994, Cable TV became an indirect majority owned subsidiary of Comcast
Corporation ("Comcast"), a Pennsylvania corporation which is a publicly owned
company.
Maclean Hunter Acquisition
On March 31, 1994, Rogers Communications Inc. ("RCI") acquired substantially all
of the outstanding shares of capital stock of Maclean Hunter Limited, which was
formerly the parent of Maclean Hunter, Inc. ("MHI"). On December 22, 1994,
pursuant to a share purchase agreement between Comcast and RCI, Comcast MH
Holdings, Inc. ("MH Holdings") purchased all of the issued and outstanding
shares of capital stock of MHI and, in conjunction with a separate agreement
with the shareholders of Comcast Michigan Holdings, Inc. (formerly Barden
Communications, Inc. and referred to herein as "CMH"), acquired all of the
issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of CMH, for an aggregate purchase
price of approximately $1.2 billion (subject to certain adjustments) in cash
(the purchase of the shares of MHI is referred to herein as the "MHI Share
Purchase" and, together with the purchase of the CMH shares, as the "Share
Purchase"). MH Holdings is an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Comcast MHCP
Holdings, L.L.C. ("MHCP"), a Delaware limited liability corporation. MHCP is
owned 55% by a wholly owned subsidiary of Comcast and 45% by the California
Public Employees' Retirement System ("CalPERS"), and is managed by Comcast. The
MHI Share Purchase resulted in a change of control of the Company because Cable
TV, the Company's parent, became an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of MH
Holdings. In addition, the Share Purchase resulted in a change of control of the
Partnership because the partners became substantially indirect wholly owned
subsidiaries of MH Holdings.
Contemporaneously with the Share Purchase, Detroit Cable TV, Inc. ("Detroit
Cable"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Cable TV, exercised its option to acquire
additional interests in the Partnership of 0.2% from the Company and 0.8% from
CMH for consideration previously provided. Following the Share Purchase, Detroit
Cable, CMH and the Company hold interests of 50%, 40% and 10%, respectively, in
the Partnership.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company currently does not have any significant capital requirements.
The Partnership's capital requirements, anticipated to be approximately $5.0
million in 1995, are principally for maintenance and upgrading of the system.
The amount of such capital expenditures for years subsequent to 1995 will depend
on numerous factors, many of which are beyond the Partnership's control. These
factors include whether competition in the market necessitates a system rebuild
or upgrade, whether the system has sufficient capacity to handle new product
offerings, including the offering of cable telephony and telecommunications
services, and whether and to what extent the Partnership will be able to recover
its investment under Federal Communications Commission ("FCC") rate guidelines.
<PAGE>10
CABLEVISION INVESTMENT OF DETROIT, INC.
FORM 10-Q
QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 1995
The Company believes that the Partnership will be able to meet its current and
long-term liquidity and capital requirements, including its fixed charges
(interest expense), through its cash flows from operating activities and other
sources of financing.
Results of Operations
As a result of the Share Purchase, a new cost basis was established for the
purchased assets and liabilities. The financial position of the Company and the
Partnership as of March 31, 1995 and December 31, 1994, and their results of
operations for the three months ended March 31, 1995, reflect an allocation of
the purchase price for the Share Purchase to the assets and liabilities of the
Company and the Partnership based on relative estimated market values. Such
allocation is preliminary pending, among other things, the final purchase price
adjustment between Comcast and RCI.
Cablevision Investment of Detroit, Inc.
The Company accounts for its investment in the Partnership under the equity
method. The Company records its investment at cost and adjusts the recorded
investment periodically to recognize the Company's proportionate share of the
Partnership's net income or loss after the date of investment, as well as any
additional contributions made and distributions received.
The Company realized net (loss) income of ($309,000) and $38,000 for the three
months ended March 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively. The results of operations
include equity in net (loss) income of the Partnership of ($389,000) and
$174,000, respectively, for those periods. The financial results of the
Partnership are discussed below.
Comcast Cablevision of Detroit
The Partnership realized operating income before depreciation and amortization
(commonly referred to in the Partnership's business as "operating cash flow") of
$5.6 million and $4.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 1995 and
1994, respectively, representing an increase of $700,000 or 14%. These changes
are a result of the items discussed below. Operating cash flow is presented as a
measure of the Partnership's ability to generate cash to service its
obligations, including debt service obligations, and to finance capital and
other expenditures. In part due to the capital intensive nature of the
telecommunications industry and the significant level of non-cash depreciation
and amortization expense, operating cash flow is frequently used as one of the
bases for comparing companies in the industry. Operating cash flow does not
purport to represent net income or net cash provided by operating activities, as
those terms are defined under generally accepted accounting principles, and
should not be considered as an alternative to such measurements as an indicator
of the Partnership's performance.
The Partnership realized service income of $16.6 million and $16.0 million for
the three months ended March 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively, representing an
increase of $600,000 or 4%. Substantially all of the increase in service income
is due to the effects of subscriber growth and additional product offerings.
Operating, selling, general and administrative expenses were $11.0 million and
$11.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively.
Such expenses have remained consistent between periods primarily due to
operating efficiencies realized as a result of the Share Purchase offset by cost
increases predominantly associated with subscriber growth. It is anticipated
that the Partnership's cost of cable programming will increase in the future as
cable programming rates increase and additional sources of cable programming
become available.
Depreciation and amortization expense was $6.5 million and $2.5 million for the
three months ended March 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively, representing an
increase of $4.0 million. The increase is due primarily to the effects of
establishing a new cost basis for the assets purchased in the Share Purchase.
<PAGE>11
CABLEVISION INVESTMENT OF DETROIT, INC.
FORM 10-Q
QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 1995
Interest expense was $3.0 million and $719,000 for the three months ended March
31, 1995 and 1994, respectively, representing an increase of $2.3 million. The
increase is principally due to the effects of debt of MH Holdings assumed by the
Partnership.
Statement of Cash Flows
Cablevision Investment of Detroit, Inc.
Cash decreased $1.0 million at March 31, 1995 from December 31, 1994 and
increased $1.0 million at March 31, 1994 from December 31, 1993. These changes
in cash reflect the effects of net investing transactions with affiliates.
Cable Rate Regulation Developments
On March 30, 1994, the FCC, among other things, adopted interim regulations to
govern cost-of-service showings by cable operators, establishing an
industry-wide 11.25% after tax rate of return and a rebuttable presumption that
acquisition costs above original historic book value of tangible assets should
be excluded from the rate base; and reconsidered, among other matters, its
regulations concerning rates for the addition of regulated services and the
treatment of packages of "a la carte" channels. The Partnership is currently
seeking to justify certain of its existing rates on the basis of cost-of-service
showings at the City. Although management believes that the Partnership's rates
are supportable in a cost of service proceeding, no assurance can be given that
the Partnership will be successful. If the Partnership is not successful in such
efforts, and there is no legislative, administrative or judicial relief, the FCC
regulations may adversely affect the Partnership's results of operations.
