This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is for the three months ended March 31, 2013. This Quarterly Report modifies and supersedes documents filed prior to this Quarterly Report. The Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) allows us to “incorporate by reference” information that we file with it, which means that we can disclose important information to you by referring you directly to those documents. Information incorporated by reference is considered to be part of this Quarterly Report. In addition, information that we file with the SEC in the future will automatically update and supersede information contained in this Quarterly Report. Throughout this Quarterly Report, we refer to Comcast Corporation as “Comcast;” Comcast and its consolidated subsidiaries, including NBCUniversal Media, LLC (“NBCUniversal”), as “we,” “us” and “our;” Comcast Cable Communications, LLC and its subsidiaries as “Comcast Cable;” Comcast Holdings Corporation as “Comcast Holdings;” and NBCUniversal, LLC as “NBCUniversal Holdings.”

You should carefully review the information contained in this Quarterly Report and particularly consider any risk factors set forth in this Quarterly Report and in other reports or documents that we file from time to time with the SEC. In this Quarterly Report, we state our beliefs of future events and of our future financial performance. In some cases, you can identify these so-called “forward-looking statements” by words such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expects,” “believes,” “estimates,” “potential,” or “continue,” or the negative of those words, and other comparable words. You should be aware that these statements are only our predictions. In evaluating these statements, you should specifically consider various factors, including the risks outlined below and in other reports we file with the SEC. Actual events or our actual results may differ materially from any of our forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements.

Our businesses may be affected by, among other things, the following:

•

our businesses currently face a wide range of competition, and our businesses and results of operations could be adversely affected if we do not compete effectively

•

changes in consumer behavior driven by new technologies may adversely affect our businesses

•

programming expenses for our video services are increasing, which could adversely affect our businesses

•

we are subject to regulation by federal, state, local and foreign authorities, which may impose additional costs and restrictions on our businesses

•

weak economic conditions may have a negative impact on our businesses

•

a decline in advertising expenditures or changes in advertising markets could negatively impact our businesses

•

NBCUniversal’s success depends on consumer acceptance of its content, which is difficult to predict, and its businesses may be adversely affected if its content fails to achieve sufficient consumer acceptance or our costs to acquire content increase

•

the loss of NBCUniversal’s programming distribution agreements, or the renewal of these agreements on less favorable terms, could adversely affect its businesses

•

our businesses depend on keeping pace with technological developments

•

we rely on network and information systems and other technologies, as well as key properties, and a disruption, cyber attack, failure or destruction of such networks, systems, technologies or properties may disrupt our businesses

•

our businesses depend on using and protecting certain intellectual property rights and on not infringing the intellectual property rights of others

•

we may be unable to obtain necessary hardware, software and operational support

•

labor disputes, whether involving employees or sports organizations, may disrupt our operations and adversely affect our businesses

•

the loss of key management personnel or popular on-air and creative talent could have an adverse effect on our businesses

•

sales of DVDs have been declining

•

we face risks arising from the outcome of various litigation matters

•

we face risks relating to doing business internationally that could adversely affect our businesses

•

acquisitions and other strategic transactions present many risks, and we may not realize the financial and strategic goals that were contemplated at the time of any transaction

•

our Class B common stock has substantial voting rights and separate approval rights over several potentially material transactions, and our Chairman and CEO has considerable influence over our company through his beneficial ownership of our Class B common stock

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Note 1: Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

Basis of Presentation

We have prepared these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements based on Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules that permit reduced disclosure for interim periods. These financial statements include all adjustments that are necessary for a fair presentation of our consolidated results of operations, financial condition and cash flows for the periods shown, including normal, recurring accruals and other items. The consolidated results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year.

The year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). For a more complete discussion of our accounting policies and certain other information, refer to our consolidated financial statements included in our 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Reclassifications have been made to our condensed consolidated financial statements for the prior year to conform to classifications used in the current period.

Note 2: Earnings Per Share

Computation of Diluted EPS


	Three Months Ended March 31
	2013						2012
(in millions, except per share data)	Net Income Attributable to Comcast Corporation		Shares		Per Share Amount		Net Income Attributable to Comcast Corporation		Shares		Per Share Amount
Basic EPS attributable to Comcast Corporation shareholders	$	1,437		2,634	$	0.55	$	1,224		2,708	$	0.45
Effect of dilutive securities:
Assumed exercise or issuance of shares relating to stock plans				41						36
Diluted EPS attributable to Comcast Corporation shareholders	$	1,437		2,675	$	0.54	$	1,224		2,744	$	0.45

Our potentially dilutive securities include potential common shares related to our stock options and our restricted share units (“RSUs”). Diluted earnings per common share attributable to Comcast Corporation shareholders (“diluted EPS”) considers the impact of potentially dilutive securities using the treasury stock method. Diluted EPS excludes the impact of potential common shares related to our stock options in periods in which the option exercise price is greater than the average market price of our Class A common stock or our Class A Special common stock, as applicable.

Diluted EPS for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 excludes 2 million and 26 million, respectively, of potential common shares related to our share-based compensation plans, because the inclusion of the potential common shares would have had an antidilutive effect.

Note 3: Significant Transactions

On March 19, 2013, we acquired GE’s 49% common equity interest in NBCUniversal Holdings for approximately $16.7 billion (the “Redemption Transaction”). In addition to this transaction, NBCUniversal purchased from GE certain properties it occupies at 30 Rockefeller Plaza in New York City and CNBC’s headquarters in Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey for approximately $1.4 billion.

The total consideration for these transactions consisted of $11.4 billion of cash on hand; $4 billion of senior debt securities issued by NBCUniversal Enterprise, Inc. (“NBCUniversal Enterprise”), a holding company whose principal assets are its interests in NBCUniversal Holdings; $750 million of cash funded through our commercial paper program; $1.25 billion of borrowings under NBCUniversal Enterprise’s credit facility, which has replaced NBCUniversal’s credit facility; and $725 million aggregate liquidation preference of Series A cumulative preferred stock of NBCUniversal Enterprise. See Note 6 for additional information on NBCUniversal Enterprise’s senior debt securities and credit facility.

Following the close of the Redemption Transaction, we control and consolidate NBCUniversal Enterprise and own all of its capital stock other than its preferred stock. NBCUniversal Enterprise’s senior debt securities and credit facility are guaranteed by us and four of our wholly owned cable holding company subsidiaries, but are not guaranteed by NBCUniversal. In March 2013, NBCUniversal became a part of our existing cross-guarantee structure. See Note 14 for additional information on our guarantor structure.

After the close of the transaction, GE sold the interests in NBCUniversal Enterprise’s senior debt securities and preferred stock it acquired in the Redemption Transaction to unaffiliated third parties. The preferred stock pays dividends at a fixed rate of 5.25% and the holders have the right to cause NBCUniversal Enterprise to redeem their shares at a price equal to the liquidation preference plus accrued but unpaid dividends for a thirty day period beginning on March 19, 2020 and thereafter on every third anniversary of such date (each such date, a “put date”). Shares of preferred stock can be called for redemption by NBCUniversal Enterprise at a price equal to the liquidation preference plus accrued but unpaid dividends one year following each put date applicable to such shares. Because certain of these redemption provisions are outside of our control, the NBCUniversal Enterprise preferred stock is presented outside of equity under the caption “redeemable noncontrolling interests and redeemable subsidiary preferred stock” in our condensed consolidated balance sheet. Its initial value was based on the liquidation preference of the preferred stock and is adjusted for accrued but unpaid dividends.

We recognized an increase to our deferred tax liabilities of $1.5 billion primarily due to the increase in our financial reporting basis in the consolidated net assets of NBCUniversal Holdings in excess of the tax basis following the Redemption Transaction. In addition, our condensed consolidated balance sheet now includes certain tax liabilities of NBCUniversal Enterprise related to periods prior to our acquisition of the common stock of NBCUniversal Enterprise, for which we have been indemnified by GE and have recorded a related indemnification asset. We also expect to realize additional tax benefits in the future as a result of the Redemption Transaction, which are expected to increase the amounts we have agreed to share with GE. Our expected future payments to GE are accounted for as contingent consideration. See Note 7 for additional information on the fair value of this contingent consideration as of March 31, 2013.

Because we have maintained control of NBCUniversal Holdings, the difference between the consideration transferred and the recorded value of GE’s 49% redeemable noncontrolling common equity interest, and the related tax impacts, were recorded to additional paid-in capital.

(a)	Includes the effects of our derivative financial instruments.

As of March 31, 2013, our debt had an estimated fair value of $54.3 billion. The estimated fair value of our publicly traded debt is based on quoted market values for the debt. To estimate the fair value of debt for which there are no quoted market prices, we use interest rates available to us for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities.

Redemption Transaction

The Redemption Transaction resulted in an additional $4 billion aggregate principal amount of senior notes issued by NBCUniversal Enterprise and $1.25 billion of borrowings under the NBCUniversal Enterprise credit facility. The total consideration for the Redemption Transaction also included $750 million of cash funded through our commercial paper program.

The NBCUniversal Enterprise senior notes are comprised of $1.1 billion aggregate principal amount of 1.662% senior notes due 2018, $1.5 billion aggregate principal amount of 1.974% senior notes due 2019, $700 million aggregate principal amount of floating rate senior notes due 2016 and $700 million aggregate principal amount of floating rate senior notes due 2018. The floating rate senior notes due 2016 and 2018 will accrue interest for each quarterly interest period at a rate equal to three-month London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus 0.537% and 0.685%, respectively.

On March 19, 2013, NBCUniversal Enterprise amended and restated the existing credit agreement of NBCUniversal to, among other things, substitute NBCUniversal Enterprise for NBCUniversal as the sole borrower and revise the borrowing capacity of the facility from $1.5 billion to $1.35 billion, extend the term of the facility to March 2018 and revise the interest rate on borrowings. The interest rate on the credit facility consists of a base rate plus a borrowing margin that is determined based on our credit rating. As of March 31, 2013, the interest rate on this credit facility was 1.28%.

Debt Borrowings

In January 2013, we issued $750 million aggregate principal amount of 2.850% senior notes due 2023, $1.7 billion aggregate principal amount of 4.250% senior notes due 2033 and $500 million aggregate principal amount of 4.500% senior notes due 2043.

Commercial Paper Program

During the three months ended March 31, 2013, borrowings, net of repayments of commercial paper under our commercial paper program, were $500 million. Following the amendments to the NBCUniversal credit agreement, NBCUniversal’s commercial paper program was terminated.

Revolving Credit Facilities

As of March 31, 2013, amounts available under our consolidated revolving credit facilities, net of amounts outstanding under our commercial paper program and undrawn letters of credit, was $5.5 billion, which included $100 million available under NBCUniversal Enterprise’s credit facility.

Note 7: Fair Value Measurements

The accounting guidance related to financial assets and financial liabilities (“financial instruments”) establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes fair value measurements based on the types of inputs used for the various valuation techniques (market approach, income approach and cost approach). Level 1 consists of financial instruments whose values are based on quoted market prices for identical financial instruments in an active market. Level 2 consists of financial instruments that are valued using models or other valuation methodologies. These models use inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly. Level 3 consists of financial instruments whose values are determined using pricing models that use significant inputs that are primarily unobservable, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation. Our financial instruments that are accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis are presented in the table below.

Contractual Obligations and Contingent Consideration

The fair values of the contractual obligations and contingent consideration in the table above are primarily based on certain expected future discounted cash flows, the determination of which involves the use of significant unobservable inputs. The most significant unobservable inputs we use are our estimates of the future revenue we expect to generate from certain NBCUniversal entities, which are related to our contractual obligations, and future net tax benefits that will affect payments to GE, which are related to contingent consideration. The discount rates used in the measurements of fair value were between 5% and 14% and are based on the underlying risk associated with our estimate of future revenue, as well as the terms of the respective contracts, and the uncertainty in the timing of our payments to GE. The fair value adjustments to contractual obligations and contingent consideration are sensitive to the assumptions related to future revenue and tax benefits, respectively, as well as to current interest rates, and therefore, the adjustments are recorded to other income (expense), net in our condensed consolidated statement of income.

Redemption Transaction		—			171
Balance, March 31, 2013	$	1,080		$	699

Nonrecurring Fair Value Measures

We have assets and liabilities that we are required to record at fair value on a nonrecurring basis when certain circumstances occur. In the case of film or stage play production costs, upon the occurrence of an event or change in circumstance that may indicate that the fair value of a production is less than its unamortized costs, we determine the fair value of the production and record an adjustment for the amount by which the unamortized capitalized costs exceed the production’s fair value. The estimate of fair value of a production is determined using Level 3 inputs, primarily an analysis of future expected cash flows. Adjustments to capitalized film production costs of $66 million and $25 million were recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Note 8: Noncontrolling Interests

Certain of the subsidiaries that we consolidate are not wholly owned. Some of the agreements with the minority partners of these subsidiaries contain redemption features whereby interests held by the minority partners are redeemable either (i) at the option of the holder or (ii) upon the occurrence of an event that is not solely within our control. If interests were to be redeemed under these agreements, we would generally be required to purchase the interest at fair value on the date of redemption. These interests are presented on the balance sheet outside of equity as a component of the caption “redeemable noncontrolling interests and redeemable subsidiary preferred stock.” Noncontrolling interests and subsidiary preferred stock that do not contain such redemption features are presented in equity.

We acquired GE’s 49% common equity interest in NBCUniversal Holdings, which had previously been presented as a redeemable noncontrolling interest in our condensed consolidated balance sheet. See Note 3 for additional information on the Redemption Transaction. The difference between the consideration transferred and the recorded value of GE’s 49% redeemable noncontrolling common equity interest and the related tax impacts were recorded to additional paid-in capital. The table below includes the impact of that transaction to our changes in equity.

Note 9: Share-Based Compensation

Our share-based compensation primarily consists of awards of stock options and RSUs to certain employees and directors and is awarded as part of our approach to long-term incentive compensation. Additionally, through our employee stock purchase plans, employees are able to purchase shares of Comcast Class A common stock at a discount through payroll deductions.

In March 2013, we granted 18.4 million stock options and 5.2 million RSUs related to our annual management awards. The weighted-average fair values associated with these grants were $8.80 per stock option and $37.85 per RSU.

Noncash Investing and Financing Activities

During the three months ended March 31, 2013:

•

we acquired GE’s 49% common equity interest in NBCUniversal Holdings for total consideration of $16.7 billion, which included noncash consideration of $6 billion from the consolidation of NBCUniversal Enterprise which was comprised of $4 billion aggregate principal amount of senior notes, $1.25 billion of borrowings under its credit facility and $725 million aggregate liquidation preference of its Series A cumulative preferred stock (see Note 3 for additional information on the Redemption Transaction)

•

we acquired $515 million of property and equipment and intangible assets that were accrued but unpaid

•

we recorded a liability of $514 million for a quarterly cash dividend of $0.195 per common share paid in April 2013

Note 11: Receivables Monetization

NBCUniversal monetizes certain of its accounts receivable under programs with a syndicate of banks. We account for receivables monetized through these programs as sales in accordance with the appropriate accounting guidance. We receive deferred consideration from the assets sold in the form of a receivable, which is funded by residual cash flows after the senior interests have been fully paid. The deferred consideration is included in receivables, net at its initial fair value, which reflects the net cash flows we expect to receive related to these interests. The accounts receivable we sold that underlie the deferred consideration are generally short-term in nature and, therefore, the fair value of the deferred consideration approximated its carrying value as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012.

NBCUniversal is responsible for servicing the receivables and remitting collections to the purchasers under the monetization programs. NBCUniversal performs this service for a fee that is equal to the prevailing market rate for such services. As a result, no servicing asset or liability has been recorded on our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012. The servicing fees are recorded as a component of net (loss) gain on sale.

The net cash payments on transfers that are included within net cash provided by operating activities in our condensed consolidated statement of cash flows were $339 million and $90 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The receivables monetization program did not have a material effect on our condensed consolidated statement of income for the periods presented.

Receivables Monetized and Deferred Consideration

Monetized receivables sold	$	681	$	791
Deferred consideration	$	239	$	274

In addition to the amounts presented above, we had $620 million and $882 million payable to our monetization programs as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. These amounts represent cash receipts that were not yet remitted to the monetization programs as of the balance sheet date and are recorded to accounts payable and accrued expenses related to trade creditors.

Note 12: Commitments and Contingencies

Commitments

Station Venture

NBCUniversal previously held an equity interest in Station Venture Holdings, LLC (“Station Venture”), a nonconsolidated variable interest entity, and the remaining equity interests in Station Venture were held by LIN TV, Corp. Station Venture was the obligor on an $816 million senior secured note (the “Station Venture note”) that was due in 2023 to General Electric Capital Corporation (“GECC”) as servicer. The Station Venture note, among other things, was collateralized by substantially all of the assets of Station Venture and Station Venture Operations, LP (“Station LP”). Station LP was a less than wholly owned consolidated subsidiary of NBCUniversal. In connection with the acquisition of our controlling interest in NBCUniversal Holdings on January 28, 2011, a liability of $482 million was recorded to noncurrent liabilities in our allocation of purchase price, which represented the fair value of the net assets of Station LP. In February 2013, we closed our agreement with GE, GECC and LIN TV under which, among other things, NBCUniversal purchased the Station Venture note from GECC for $602 million, representing the agreed upon fair value of the assets of Station LP. As of the closing date of the transaction, the $482 million recorded liability was effectively settled and Station Venture and Station LP became wholly owned subsidiaries of NBCUniversal. We now consolidate Station Venture, and the Station Venture note is eliminated in consolidation. Due to the related party nature of this transaction, the excess of the purchase price of the Station Venture note over the recorded amount of the liability was recorded to additional paid-in capital.

Contingencies

Antitrust Cases

We are defendants in two purported class actions originally filed in December 2003 in the United States District Courts for the District of Massachusetts and the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. The potential class in the Massachusetts case, which has been transferred to the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, is our customer base in the “Boston Cluster” area, and the potential class in the Pennsylvania case is our customer base in the “Philadelphia and Chicago Clusters,” as those terms are defined in the complaints. In each case, the plaintiffs allege that certain customer exchange transactions with other cable providers resulted in unlawful horizontal market restraints in those areas and seek damages under antitrust statutes, including treble damages.

Classes of Chicago Cluster and Philadelphia Cluster customers were certified in October 2007 and January 2010, respectively. We appealed the class certification in the Philadelphia Cluster case to the Third Circuit Court of Appeals, which affirmed the class certification in August 2011 and denied our petition for a rehearing en banc in September 2011. In March 2010, we moved for summary judgment dismissing all of the plaintiffs’ claims in the Philadelphia Cluster. In April 2012, the District Court issued a decision dismissing some of the plaintiffs’ claims, but allowing two claims to proceed to trial. The plaintiffs’ claims concerning the other two clusters are stayed pending determination of the Philadelphia Cluster claims. In June 2012, the U.S. Supreme Court granted our petition to review the Third Circuit Court of Appeals’ ruling and in September 2012, the trial court stayed all proceedings pending resolution of the Supreme Court appeal. In March 2013, the Supreme Court ruled that the class had been improperly certified and reversed the judgment of the Third Circuit.

In addition, we are the defendant in 22 purported class actions filed in federal district courts throughout the country. All of these actions have been consolidated by the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania for pre-trial proceedings. In a consolidated complaint filed in November 2009 on behalf of all plaintiffs in the multidistrict litigation, the plaintiffs allege that we improperly “tie” the rental of set-top boxes to the provision of premium cable services in violation of Section 1 of the Sherman Antitrust Act, various state antitrust laws and unfair/deceptive trade practices acts in California, Illinois and Alabama. The plaintiffs also allege a claim for unjust enrichment and seek relief on behalf of a nationwide class of our premium cable customers and on behalf of subclasses consisting of premium cable customers from California, Alabama, Illinois, Pennsylvania and Washington. In January 2010, we moved to compel arbitration of the plaintiffs’ claims for unjust enrichment and violations of the unfair/deceptive trade practices acts of Illinois and Alabama. In September 2010, the plaintiffs filed an amended complaint alleging violations of additional state antitrust laws and unfair/deceptive trade practices acts on behalf of new subclasses in Connecticut, Florida, Minnesota, Missouri, New Jersey, New Mexico and West Virginia. In the amended complaint, plaintiffs omitted their unjust enrichment claim, as well as their state law claims on behalf of the Alabama, Illinois and Pennsylvania subclasses. In June 2011, the plaintiffs filed another amended complaint alleging only violations of Section 1 of the Sherman Antitrust Act, antitrust law in Washington and unfair/deceptive trade practices acts in California and Washington. The plaintiffs seek relief on behalf of a nationwide class of our premium cable customers and on behalf of subclasses consisting of premium cable customers from California and Washington. In July 2011, we moved to compel arbitration of most of the plaintiffs’ claims and to stay the remaining claims pending arbitration.

The West Virginia Attorney General also filed a complaint in West Virginia state court in July 2009 alleging that we improperly “tie” the rental of set-top boxes to the provision of digital cable services in violation of the West Virginia Antitrust Act and the West Virginia Consumer Credit and Protection Act. The Attorney General also alleges a claim for unjust enrichment/restitution. We removed the case to the United States District Court for West Virginia, and it was subsequently transferred to the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania and consolidated with the multidistrict litigation described above. In March 2010, the Eastern District of Pennsylvania denied the Attorney General’s motion to remand the case back to West Virginia state court. In June 2010, the Attorney General moved to sever and remand the portion of the claims seeking civil penalties and injunctive relief back to West Virginia state court. We filed a brief in opposition to the motion in July 2010.

We believe the claims in each of the pending actions described above in this item are without merit and intend to defend the actions vigorously. We cannot predict the outcome of any of the actions described above, including a range of possible loss, or how the final resolution of any such actions would impact our results of operations or cash flows for any one period or our consolidated financial position. In addition, as any action nears a trial, there is an increased possibility that the action may be settled by the parties. Nevertheless, the final disposition of any of the above actions is not expected to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, but could possibly be material to our consolidated results of operations or cash flows for any one period.

Other

We are a defendant in several unrelated lawsuits claiming infringement of various patents relating to various aspects of our businesses. In certain of these cases other industry participants are also defendants, and also in certain of these cases we expect that any potential liability would be in part or in whole the responsibility of our

equipment and technology vendors under applicable contractual indemnification provisions. We are also subject to other legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of our business. While the amount of ultimate liability with respect to such actions is not expected to materially affect our financial position, results of operations or cash flows, any litigation resulting from any such legal proceedings or claims could be time consuming, costly and injure our reputation.

Note 13: Financial Data by Business Segment

We present our operations in five reportable business segments:

(a)	For the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, Cable Communications segment revenue was derived from the following sources:


	Three Months Ended March 31
	2013		2012
Residential:
Video		50.0%		51.4%
High-speed Internet		24.7%		24.2%
Voice		8.8%		9.1%
Business services		7.2%		6.1%
Advertising		4.8%		5.0%
Other		4.5%		4.2%
Total		100%		100%

Subscription revenue received from customers who purchase bundled services at a discounted rate is allocated proportionally to each service based on the individual service’s price on a stand-alone basis. Beginning in 2013, revenue from certain business customers, such as hotels, restaurants and bars, is now presented in business services revenue rather than in the video revenue line item. Reclassifications have been made for the prior year to conform to this new presentation.

For the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, 2.9% and 2.8%, respectively, of Cable Communications revenue was derived from franchise and other regulatory fees.

(b)	NBCUniversal Headquarters and Other activities included costs associated with overhead, personnel costs and headquarter initiatives.

(c)	Included in Eliminations are transactions that our segments enter into with one another. The most common types of transactions are the following:

•

our Cable Networks and Broadcast Television segments generate revenue by selling programming to our Cable Communications segment, which represents a substantial majority of the revenue elimination amount

•

our Cable Communications segment generates revenue by selling advertising and by selling the use of satellite feeds to our Cable Networks segment

•

our Filmed Entertainment and Broadcast Television segments generate revenue by licensing content to our Cable Networks segment

•

our Cable Communications segment receives incentives offered by our Cable Networks segment in connection with its distribution of the Cable Networks’ content that are recorded as a reduction to programming expenses

(d)	No single customer accounted for a significant amount of revenue in any period.

(e)

We use operating income (loss) before depreciation and amortization, excluding impairment charges related to fixed and intangible assets and gains or losses from the sale of assets, if any, as the measure of profit or loss for our operating segments. This measure eliminates the significant level of noncash depreciation and amortization expense that results from the capital-intensive nature of certain of our businesses and from intangible assets recognized in business combinations. Additionally, it is unaffected by our capital structure or investment activities. We use this measure to evaluate our consolidated operating performance and the operating performance of our operating segments and to allocate resources and capital to our operating segments. It is also a significant performance measure in our annual incentive compensation programs. We believe that this measure is useful to investors because it is one of the bases for comparing our operating performance with that of other companies in our industries, although our measure may not be directly comparable to similar measures used by other companies. This measure should not be considered a substitute for operating income (loss), net income (loss) attributable to Comcast Corporation, net cash provided by operating activities, or other measures of performance or liquidity we have reported in accordance with GAAP.

ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview

We are a global media and technology company with two primary businesses, Comcast Cable and NBCUniversal. We present our operations in the following five reportable business segments: Cable Communications, Cable Networks, Broadcast Television, Filmed Entertainment and Theme Parks. The Cable Networks, Broadcast Television, Filmed Entertainment and Theme Parks segments comprise the NBCUniversal businesses and are collectively referred to as the “NBCUniversal segments.”

Cable Communications

We are the nation’s largest provider of video, high-speed Internet and voice services (“cable services”) to residential customers under the XFINITY brand and we also provide these services to businesses. As of March 31, 2013, our cable systems served 21.9 million video customers, 19.8 million high-speed Internet customers and 10.2 million voice customers and passed more than 53 million homes and businesses. Our Cable Communications segment generates revenue primarily from subscriptions to our cable services, which we market individually and in packages, and from the sale of advertising. During the three months ended March 31, 2013, our Cable Communications segment generated 67% of our consolidated revenue and more than 80% of our operating income before depreciation and amortization.

NBCUniversal

NBCUniversal is a leading media and entertainment company that develops, produces and distributes entertainment, news and information, sports and other content for global audiences.

Cable Networks

Our Cable Networks segment consists primarily of our national cable networks, which provide entertainment, news and information, and sports programming, our regional sports and news networks, our international cable networks, our cable television production operations, and our related digital media properties, which are primarily brand-aligned and other websites. Our Cable Networks segment generates revenue primarily from the distribution of our cable network programming to multichannel video providers, the sale of advertising and the licensing of our owned programming.

Broadcast Television

Our Broadcast Television segment consists primarily of the NBC and Telemundo broadcast networks, our NBC and Telemundo owned local broadcast television stations, our broadcast television production operations, and our related digital media properties, which are primarily brand-aligned websites. Our Broadcast Television segment generates revenue primarily from the sale of advertising and the licensing and sale of our owned programming.

Filmed Entertainment

Our Filmed Entertainment segment produces, acquires, markets and distributes filmed entertainment worldwide. We also develop, produce and license live stage plays. Our Filmed Entertainment segment generates revenue primarily from the worldwide distribution of our owned and acquired films and the licensing and sale of our owned and acquired films. Our Filmed Entertainment segment also generates revenue from producing and licensing live stage plays and distributing filmed entertainment produced by third parties.

Theme Parks

Our Theme Parks segment consists primarily of our Universal theme parks in Orlando and Hollywood. We also receive fees from third parties that own and operate Universal Studios Japan and Universal Studios Singapore for intellectual property licenses and other services. Our Theme Parks segment generates revenue primarily from theme park attendance and per capita spending at our Universal theme parks in Orlando and Hollywood, as well as from licensing and other fees. Per capita spending includes ticket price and in-park spending on food, beverages and merchandise.

Other

Our other business interests primarily include Comcast-Spectacor, which owns the Philadelphia Flyers and the Wells Fargo Center arena in Philadelphia and operates arena management-related businesses.

Significant Transactions

The total consideration for these transactions consisted of $11.4 billion of cash on hand; $4 billion of senior debt securities issued by NBCUniversal Enterprise, Inc. (“NBCUniversal Enterprise”), a holding company whose principal assets are its interests in NBCUniversal Holdings; $750 million of cash funded through our commercial paper program; $1.25 billion of borrowings under NBCUniversal Enterprise’s credit facility, which has replaced NBCUniversal’s credit facility; and $725 million aggregate liquidation preference of Series A cumulative preferred stock of NBCUniversal Enterprise. See Note 6 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information on NBCUniversal Enterprise’s senior debt securities and credit facility.

Following the close of the Redemption Transaction, we control and consolidate NBCUniversal Enterprise and own all of its capital stock other than its preferred stock. NBCUniversal Enterprise’s senior debt securities and credit facility are guaranteed by us and four of our wholly owned cable holding company subsidiaries, but are not guaranteed by NBCUniversal. In March 2013, NBCUniversal became a part of our existing cross-guarantee structure. See Note 14 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information on our guarantor structure.

All percentages are calculated based on actual amounts. Minor differences may exist due to rounding.

Percentage changes that are considered not meaningful are denoted with NM.

Each of our businesses is subject to seasonal and cyclical variations. Revenue and operating costs and expenses in our Broadcast Television segment are cyclical as a result of our periodic broadcasts of the Olympic Games and the Super Bowl. Our advertising revenue and programming and production costs decreased for the three months ended March 31, 2013 primarily due to the broadcast of the 2012 Super Bowl in February 2012. All of the revenue and operating costs and expenses associated with our broadcast of the 2012 Super Bowl are reported in our Broadcast Television segment.

Consolidated Revenue

Our Cable Communications, Cable Networks, Theme Parks and Filmed Entertainment segments accounted for substantially all of the increase in consolidated revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2013. Revenue for our Cable Communications and NBCUniversal segments is discussed separately below under the heading “Segment Operating Results.”

Consolidated Costs and Expenses

Our Cable Communications, Cable Networks and Theme Parks segments accounted for substantially all of the increase in consolidated costs and expenses, excluding depreciation and amortization (consolidated “operating costs and expenses”), for the three months ended March 31, 2013. Operating costs and expenses for our Cable Communications and NBCUniversal segments are discussed separately below under the heading “Segment Operating Results.”

Consolidated depreciation and amortization increased slightly for the three months ended March 31, 2013 compared to the same period in 2012.

Segment Operating Results

Our segment operating results are presented based on how we assess operating performance and internally report financial information. We use operating income (loss) before depreciation and amortization, excluding impairment charges related to fixed and intangible assets and gains or losses from the sale of assets, if any, as the measure of profit or loss for our operating segments. This measure eliminates the significant level of noncash depreciation and amortization expense that results from the capital-intensive nature of certain of our businesses and from intangible assets recognized in business combinations. Additionally, it is unaffected by our capital

structure or investment activities. We use this measure to evaluate our consolidated operating performance and the operating performance of our operating segments and to allocate resources and capital to our operating segments. It is also a significant performance measure in our annual incentive compensation programs. We believe that this measure is useful to investors because it is one of the bases for comparing our operating performance with that of other companies in our industries, although our measure may not be directly comparable to similar measures used by other companies. Because we use operating income (loss) before depreciation and amortization to measure our segment profit or loss, we reconcile it to operating income, the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in the business segment footnote to our condensed consolidated financial statements (see Note 13 to our condensed consolidated financial statements). This measure should not be considered a substitute for operating income (loss), net income (loss) attributable to Comcast Corporation, net cash provided by operating activities, or other measures of performance or liquidity we have reported in accordance with GAAP.

Reclassifications have been made to our condensed consolidated financial statements for the prior year to conform to classifications used in the current period. Revenue from certain business customers, such as hotels, restaurants and bars, is now presented in business services revenue rather than in the video revenue line item. Operating costs and expenses for our Cable Communications segment now present franchise and other regulatory fees under a new caption, and the former technical labor caption was expanded to include both technical and product support expenses; previously, franchise and other regulatory fees and product support expenses had been included under the “other” caption. Operating costs and expenses for each of our Cable Networks, Broadcast Television and Filmed Entertainment segments have been expanded to present programming and production costs, other operating and administrative costs, and advertising, marketing and promotion costs.

Customer data includes residential and business customers.

Cable Communications Segment—Revenue

Our average monthly total revenue per video customer for the three months ended March 31, 2013 increased to $155 from $143 for the three months ended March 31, 2012. The increase in average monthly total revenue per video customer was primarily due to rate adjustments, an increase in the number of residential customers receiving multiple services, higher contribution from business services and declines in the total number of video customers.

Video

Video revenue increased for the three months ended March 31, 2013 compared to the same period in 2012 primarily due to rate adjustments and additional residential customers receiving higher levels of video service, which were partially offset by declines in the number of residential video customers. For the three months ended March 31, 2013, the number of video customers decreased primarily due to rate adjustments and competitive pressures in our service areas. We may experience further declines in the number of residential video customers.

High-Speed Internet

High-speed Internet revenue increased for the three months ended March 31, 2013 compared to the same period in 2012 primarily due to an increase in the number of residential customers and rate adjustments.

Voice

Voice revenue increased for the three months ended March 31, 2013 compared to the same period in 2012 primarily due to an increase in the number of residential customers receiving multiple services.

Business Services

Business services revenue increased for the three months ended March 31, 2013 compared to the same period in 2012 primarily due to an increase in the number of business customers, and our continued expansion of services to medium-sized business customers, which include Ethernet and cellular backhaul services.

Advertising

Advertising revenue increased for the three months ended March 31, 2013 compared to the same period in 2012 primarily due to improvements in the national and regional advertising markets, offset by the absence of political advertising revenue in the current period.

Other

Other revenue increased for the three months ended March 31, 2013 compared to the same period in 2012 primarily due to an increase in franchise and other regulatory fees and revenue from other services.

Cable Communications Segment—Operating Costs and Expenses

Programming costs increased for the three months ended March 31, 2013 compared to the same period in 2012 primarily due to an increase in programming license fees and fees incurred to secure rights for additional programming for our customers. Advertising, marketing and promotion expenses increased for the three months ended March 31, 2013 compared to the same period in 2012 primarily due to an increase in spending associated with the continued expansion of residential and business services and costs associated with branding and competitive marketing. Technical and product support expenses increased for the three months ended March 31, 2013 compared to the same period in 2012 primarily due to an increase in total labor and other activities.

Customer service expenses increased for the three months ended March 31, 2013 compared to the same period in 2012 primarily due to an increase in personnel and contract labor costs associated with higher levels of customer service activity. Franchise and other regulatory fees increased for the three months ended March 31, 2013 compared to the same period in 2012 primarily due to increases in video and voice revenue. Other costs and expenses increased for the three months ended March 31, 2013 compared to the same period in 2012 primarily due to increases in activity related to business services, fees from other services and advertising sales activities.

Cable Networks Segment—Revenue

Our Cable Networks revenue increased for the three months ended March 31, 2013 compared to the same period in 2012 due to increases in distribution revenue and advertising revenue, partially offset by a decrease in content licensing and other revenue. The increase in distribution revenue was primarily due to increases in the contractual rates charged under distribution agreements, and the increase in advertising revenue was primarily due to increases in the price and volume of advertising units sold, partially offset by declines in audience ratings at certain of our cable networks. The decrease in content licensing and other revenue was primarily due to a reduction in the licensing of our owned content at certain of our cable networks.

For the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, 14% and 13%, respectively, of our Cable Networks segment revenue was generated from our Cable Communications segment. These amounts are eliminated in our consolidated financial statements but are included in the amounts presented above.

Cable Networks Segment—Operating Costs and Expenses

Operating costs and expenses increased for the three months ended March 31, 2013 compared to the same period in 2012 primarily due to increases in programming and production costs and other operating and administrative expenses. The increase in programming and production costs was primarily due to continued investment in original programming at certain of our cable networks, partially offset by lower sports programming costs in the current period. The increase in other operating and administrative costs was primarily associated with higher employee benefit costs.

Broadcast Television Segment—Revenue

Our Broadcast Television revenue decreased for the three months ended March 31, 2013 compared to the same period in 2012 primarily due to the broadcast of the NFL’s 2012 Super Bowl in the prior year period. Excluding $259 million of revenue associated with the broadcast of the Super Bowl in the prior year period, Broadcast Television revenue decreased 5.3% primarily due to lower advertising revenue related to a decline in audience ratings and a decrease in content licensing revenue, which was primarily due to the timing of licensing agreements. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in other revenue generated from fees collected under our retransmission consent agreements.

For the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, $35 million and $17 million, respectively, of our content licensing revenue was generated from our Cable Communications segment. These amounts are eliminated in our consolidated financial statements but are included in the amounts presented above.

Broadcast Television Segment—Operating Costs and Expenses

Operating costs and expenses decreased for the three months ended March 31, 2013 compared to the same period in 2012 primarily due to the broadcast of the 2012 Super Bowl in the prior year period. Excluding the impact of the Super Bowl broadcast in the prior year period, operating costs and expenses decreased primarily due to lower programming and production costs as a result of the timing of the airing of certain primetime shows compared to the same period in the prior year.

Filmed Entertainment Segment—Revenue

Our Filmed Entertainment revenue increased slightly for the three months ended March 31, 2013 compared to the same period in 2012 primarily due to an increase in content licensing revenue and the continued strong box office performance of Les Miserables , as well as our current quarter releases of Identity Thief and Mama , partially offset by a decrease in other revenue. The increase in content licensing revenue was primarily due to our successful 2012 theatrical releases that were made available to licensees in the current period.

Filmed Entertainment Segment—Operating Costs and Expenses

Operating costs and expenses decreased for the three months ended March 31, 2013 compared to the same period in 2012 primarily due to lower advertising, marketing and promotion expenses partially offset by an increase in programming and production costs. The decrease in advertising, marketing and promotion expenses was primarily due to fewer theatrical releases in the current period as compared to 2012. The increase in programming and production costs was primarily due to higher amortization of film costs, including films in production.

Theme Parks Segment—Revenue

Theme Parks segment revenue increased for the three months ended March 31, 2013 compared to the same period in 2012 primarily due to higher guest attendance at our Orlando and Hollywood theme parks, which included the benefit from the timing of holidays in the current year period, as well as increases in per capita spending.

Theme Parks Segment—Operating Costs and Expenses

Theme Parks segment operating costs and expenses increased for the three months ended March 31, 2013 compared to the same period in 2012 primarily due to additional costs at our Orlando and Hollywood theme parks associated with the increases in attendance and per capita spending, as well as an increase in costs to support new attractions.

Headquarters, Other and Eliminations

Operating income before depreciation and amortization for headquarters, other and eliminations decreased for the three months ended March 31, 2013 compared to the same period in 2012 primarily due to lower employee benefit costs.

Total	$	(497	)	$	(561	)

Interest Expense

Interest expense increased slightly for the three months ended March 31, 2013 compared to the same period in 2012 primarily due to an increase in our debt outstanding.

Investment Income (Loss), Net

The components of investment income (loss), net for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 are presented in a table in Note 5 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Other Income (Expense), Net

The change in other income (expense), net for the three months ended March 31, 2013 compared to the same period in 2012 was primarily due to the gain recognized on our sale of wireless communications spectrum licenses in January 2013.

Consolidated Income Tax Expense

Income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 reflects an effective income tax rate that differs from the federal statutory rate primarily due to state income taxes, uncertain tax positions and until the closing of the Redemption Transaction in March 2013, foreign income taxes and the partnership structure of NBCUniversal Holdings. We expect our 2013 annual effective tax rate to be in the range of 35% to 40%, absent changes in tax laws or significant changes in uncertain tax positions.

Consolidated Net (Income) Loss Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests and Redeemable Subsidiary Preferred Stock

The decrease in net (income) loss attributable to noncontrolling interests and redeemable subsidiary preferred stock for the three months ended March 31, 2013 was primarily due to our acquisition of GE’s 49% common equity interest in NBCUniversal Holdings.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our businesses generate significant cash flows from operating activities. We believe that we will be able to continue to meet our current and long-term liquidity and capital requirements, including fixed charges, through our cash flows from operating activities, existing cash, cash equivalents and investments, available borrowings under our existing credit facilities, and our ability to obtain future external financing.

On March 27, 2013, we, four of our wholly owned cable holding company subsidiaries (the “cable guarantors”) and NBCUniversal entered into a series of agreements and supplemental indentures to include NBCUniversal as part of our existing cross-guarantee structure. As members of the cross-guarantee structure, we and the cable guarantors fully and unconditionally guarantee NBCUniversal’s public debt securities, and NBCUniversal fully and unconditionally guarantees all of our and the cable guarantors’ public debt securities, as well as our revolving credit facility.

We and the cable guarantors also fully and unconditionally guarantee NBCUniversal Enterprise’s $4 billion of senior notes and its $1.35 billion credit facility due March 2018. NBCUniversal does not guarantee the NBCUniversal Enterprise senior notes or credit facility.

We anticipate that we will continue to use a substantial portion of our cash flows to meet our debt repayment obligations, to fund our capital expenditures, to invest in business opportunities and to return capital to shareholders.

The changes in operating assets and liabilities for the three months ended March 31, 2013 compared to the same period in 2012 were primarily related to the timing of receipts for our accounts receivables and a decrease in film and television costs, partially offset by the timing of payments for our monetization program and other operating items.

The increase in interest payments for the three months ended March 31, 2013 compared to the same period in 2012 was primarily due to our debt borrowings, offset by the repayment and redemption of certain of our debt obligations.

The increase in income tax payments for the three months ended March 31, 2013 compared to the same period in 2012 was primarily due to tax payments made in 2013 that related to 2012.

Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2013 consisted primarily of cash paid for capital expenditures, NBCUniversal’s acquisition of the 30 Rockefeller Plaza properties, cash paid for intangible assets and the purchase of investments.

Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2013 consisted primarily of our acquisition of GE’s 49% common equity interest in NBCUniversal Holdings, repayments of debt, the effective settlement of our Station Venture liability, repurchases of our common stock and dividend payments, offset by proceeds from long-term borrowings and proceeds from short-term borrowings, net of repayments.

We have made, and may from time to time in the future make, optional repayments on our debt obligations, which may include repurchases of our outstanding public notes and debentures, depending on various factors, such as market conditions.

See Note 6 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information on the long-term debt incurred in connection with the Redemption Transaction, including the debt issued by NBCUniversal Enterprise, which we now consolidate.

Available Borrowings Under Credit Facilities

We also maintain significant availability under our lines of credit and our commercial paper program to meet our short-term liquidity requirements. On March 19, 2013, NBCUniversal Enterprise amended and restated the existing credit agreement of NBCUniversal to, among other things, substitute NBCUniversal Enterprise for NBCUniversal as the sole borrower and revise the borrowing capacity of the facility from $1.5 billion to $1.35 billion, extend the term of the facility to March 2018 and revise the interest rate on borrowings. The interest rate on the credit facility consists of a base rate plus a borrowing margin that is determined based on our credit rating. As of March 31, 2013, the interest rate on this credit facility was 1.28%. Following the amendments to this credit agreement, NBCUniversal’s commercial paper program was terminated.

Share Repurchases and Dividends

In February 2012, our Board of Directors approved a $6.5 billion share repurchase authorization, which does not have an expiration date. Under this authorization, we may repurchase shares in the open market or in private transactions. During the three months ended March 31, 2013, we repurchased 13 million shares of our Class A Special common stock for $500 million.

In February 2013, our Board of Directors approved a 20% increase in our dividend to $0.78 per share on an annualized basis and approved our first quarter dividend of $0.195 per share, totaling $514 million, which was paid in April 2013. We expect to continue to pay quarterly dividends, although each dividend is subject to approval by our Board of Directors.

Critical Accounting Judgments and Estimates

The preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and the related disclosure of contingent assets and contingent liabilities. We base our judgments on our historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making estimates about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

For a more complete discussion of the accounting judgments and estimates that we have identified as critical in the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements, please refer to our Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

ITEM 3: QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We have evaluated the information required under this item that was disclosed in our 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K and there have been no significant changes to this information.

ITEM 4: CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Conclusions regarding disclosure controls and procedures

Our principal executive and principal financial officers, after evaluating the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), as of the end of the period covered by this report, have concluded that, based on the evaluation of these controls and procedures required by paragraph (b) of Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Changes in internal control over financial reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15 that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II: OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1: LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Refer to Note 12 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a discussion of recent developments related to our legal proceedings.

In addition to the matters described in Note 12, the California Attorney General and the Alameda County, California District Attorney are investigating whether certain of our waste disposal policies, procedures and practices are in violation of the California Business and Professions Code and the California Health and Safety Code. We expect that these entities will seek injunctive and monetary relief. We are cooperating with the investigation. While we are unable to predict the outcome of this investigation, we do not believe that the outcome will have a material effect on our results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.

ITEM 1A: RISK FACTORS

There have been no significant changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in Item 1A of our 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
