During the first quarter of 2012, the Company entered into agreements with Sprint Nextel and Alcatel-Lucent to begin updating the Company’s Wireless network.  The update uses base station equipment acquired from Alcatel-Lucent in conjunction with Sprint Nextel’sSprint’s wireless network upgrade plan known as Network Vision.  Beginning in the second quarter of 2012, the Company began replacing cell site equipment at a number of its cell sites.  As of March 31,June 30, 2013, 274427 of its 525 sites had been upgraded, and the Company expects to replace substantially all of its existing cell site equipment by the third quarter of 2013.  The Company accelerated depreciation on these assets so that net book value at time of trade-in will equal the expected value to be realized upon trade-in.  During 2012, the Company recognized approximately $8.4 million of accelerated depreciation expense for Network Vision related activities, including $2.0$4.0 million in the first threesix months of 2012; the first quartersix months of 2013 included $0.8$2.6 million of accelerated depreciation expense.

4.Earnings per share

Basic net income (loss) per share was computed on the weighted average number of shares outstanding.  Diluted net income (loss) per share was computed under the treasury stock method, assuming the conversion as of the beginning of the period, for all dilutive stock options.  Of 725 809 thousand and 600713 thousand shares and options outstanding at March 31,June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, 341 345 thousand and 424500 thousand options were anti-dilutive, respectively.  These options have been excluded from the computations of diluted earnings per share for their respective period.  There were no adjustments to net income for either period.

7.Derivative Instruments, Hedging Activities and Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income

The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to cash flows and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective, the Company primarily uses interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate swaps (both those designated as cash flow hedges as well as those not designated as cash flow hedges) involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount.

The Company initially entered into a pay fixed, receive variablepay-fixed, receive-variable interest rate swap of $63.3 million of notional principal in August 2010.  This interest rate swap was not designated as a cash flow hedge.  Changes in the fair value of interest rate swaps not designated as cash flow hedges are recorded in interest expense each reporting period.  The total outstanding notional amount of interest rate swaps not designated as cash flow hedges was $50.6 $49.0 million as of March 31,June 30, 2013.  This swap expires in July 2013.  Changes in fair value recorded in interest expense for the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2013 and 2012 were a decreasedecreases of $104$102 thousand and an increase$79 thousand, respectively; for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, the changes were decreases of $28$206 thousand and $51 thousand, respectively.

The Company entered into a pay fixed, receive variablepay-fixed, receive-variable interest rate swap of $174.6 million of notional principal in September 2012.  This interest rate swap was designated as a cash flow hedge.  The total outstanding notional amount of cash flow hedges was $174.6 million as of March 31,June 30, 2013.

The effective portion of changes in the fair value of interest rate swaps designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income and is subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. The Company uses its derivatives to hedge the variable cash flows associated with existing variable-rate debt. The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of the derivative is recognized directly in earnings through interest expense. No hedge ineffectiveness was recognized during any of the periods presented.

Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive income related to the interest rate swap designated and that qualifies as a cash flow hedge are reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are accruedmade on the Company’s variable-rate debt. As of March 31,June 30, 2013, the Company estimates that $1.6 $1.6 million will be reclassified as an increase to interest expense during the next twelve months due to the interest rate swap since the hedge interest rate exceeds the variable interest rate on the debt.

Accelerated depreciation recorded in the first quarter of 2012 on assets to be replaced during Network Vision upgrades.  Acceleratedupgrades decreased from $4.0 million in the prior year period to $2.6 million in the current period.  The decrease in accelerated depreciation in first quarter 2013 totaled $0.8 million.  Also contributingwas partially offset by a 2012 favorable adjustment of $0.9 million related to asset retirement obligations associated with the decrease was a $0.2 million decline in amortization of the initial purchase cost of acquired prepaid customers.upgrades.

1)Homes and businesses are considered passed (“homes passed”) if we can connect them to our distribution system without further extending the transmission lines.  Homes passed is an estimate based upon the best available information.
2)Customer relationships represent the number of customers who receive at least one of our services.
3)Generally, a dwelling or commercial unit with one or more television sets connected to our distribution system counts as one video customer.  Where services are provided on a bulk basis, such as to hotels and some multi-dwelling units, the revenue charged to the customer is divided by the rate for comparable service in the local market to determine the number of customer equivalents included in the customer counts shown above.
4)Penetration is calculated by dividing the number of customers by the number of homes passed or available homes, as appropriate.
5)Digital video penetration is calculated by dividing the number of digital video customers by total video customers.  Digital video customers are video customers who receive any level of video service via digital transmission.  A dwelling with one or more digital set-top boxes counts as one digital video customer.
6)Homes and businesses are considered available (“available homes”) if we can connect them to our distribution system without further extending the transmission lines and if we offer the service in that area.  Homes passed in Shenandoah County are excluded from available homes as we do not offer high-speed internet or voice services over our co-axial distribution network in this market.
7)Revenue generating units are the sum of video, voice and high-speed internet customers.
8)Fiber miles are measured by taking the number of fiber strands in a cable and multiplying that number by the route distance.  For example, a 10 mile route with 144 fiber strands would equal 1,440 fiber miles.

Operating revenues

Cable segment service revenue increased $1.3$1.2 million, or 8.3%7.4%, due to a 2.3%2.7% increase in average revenue generating units, video price increases averaging 5.5% implemented in the first quarter of 2013 driven by rising programming costs, and customers selecting higher-priced digital TV services and higher-speed data access packages.

Operating expenses

Cable segment cost of goods and services increased $0.8 million, or 6.9% principally due to higher programming, network and maintenance expenses.  Cable programming costs increased $0.4 million as the impact of rising rates per subscriber outpaced declining video subscriber counts. Network and maintenance expenses increased a total of $0.3 million due to costs to support network growth.

Selling, general and administrative expenses have increased principally due to increases in customer service costs and advertising costs, offset partly by lower charges for bad debts.

The decrease in depreciation and amortization expense consists of $0.6 million lower amortization on customer base intangibles established in the cable acquisitions, which amortize at accelerated rates that decline with each anniversary of their establishment, partially offset by higher depreciation expense on assets placed in service.

Operating revenues

Total operating revenues in the quarter ended June 30, 2013 were flat against the comparable 2012 period.  Increases in service revenue resulted primarily from contracts to lease fiber facilities and provide internet access to third parties.  Facilities lease revenue increased largely due to affiliate billings associated with Network Vision upgrades in the Wireless segment. Other revenue decreased due to the conclusion of billings for transition services to buyers of Converged Services’ properties (coupled with a corresponding decrease in costs of goods and services mentioned below).

Operating expenses

Operating expenses overall decreased $0.3 million, or 2.5%, in the quarter ended June 30, 2013, compared to the 2012 quarter. The decrease in cost of goods and services was related to the decline in transition services for Converged Services properties. The increase in depreciation resulted from additions to switch and circuit equipment in support of fiber and other service contract revenue increases as discussed above.

Non-GAAP Financial Measure

In managing our business and assessing our financial performance, management supplements the information provided by financial statement measures prepared in accordance with GAAP with adjusted OIBDA, which is considered a “non-GAAP financial measure” under SEC rules.

Adjusted OIBDA is defined by us as operating income (loss) before depreciation and amortization, adjusted to exclude the effects of:  certain non-recurring transactions; impairment of assets; gains and losses on asset sales; and share based compensation expense.  Adjusted OIBDA should not be construed as an alternative to operating income as determined in accordance with GAAP as a measure of operating performance.

In a capital-intensive industry such as telecommunications, management believes that adjusted OIBDA and the associated percentage margin calculations are meaningful measures of our operating performance.  We use adjusted OIBDA as a supplemental performance measure because management believes it facilitates comparisons of our operating performance from period to period and comparisons of our operating performance to that of other companies by excluding potential differences caused by the age and book depreciation of fixed assets (affecting relative depreciation expenses) as well as the other items described above for which additional adjustments were made.  In the future, management expects that the Company may again report adjusted OIBDA excluding these items and may incur expenses similar to these excluded items.  Accordingly, the exclusion of these and other similar items from our non-GAAP presentation should not be interpreted as implying these items are non-recurring, infrequent or unusual.

While depreciation and amortization are considered operating costs under generally accepted accounting principles, these expenses primarily represent the current period allocation of costs associated with long-lived assets acquired or constructed in prior periods, and accordingly may obscure underlying operating trends for some purposes.  By isolating the effects of these expenses and other items that vary from period to period without any correlation to our underlying performance, or that vary widely among similar companies, management believes adjusted OIBDA facilitates internal comparisons of our historical operating performance, which are used by management for business planning purposes, and also facilitates comparisons of our performance relative to that of our competitors.  In addition, we believe that adjusted OIBDA and similar measures are widely used by investors and financial analysts as measures of our financial performance over time, and to compare our financial performance with that of other companies in our industry.

Adjusted OIBDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP.  These limitations include the following:

·it does not reflect capital expenditures;
·many of the assets being depreciated and amortized will have to be replaced in the future and adjusted OIBDA does not reflect cash requirements for such replacements;
·it does not reflect costs associated with share-based awards exchanged for employee services;
·it does not reflect interest expense necessary to service interest or principal payments on indebtedness;
·it does not reflect expenses incurred for the payment of income taxes and other taxes; and
·other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate adjusted OIBDA differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.

In light of these limitations, management considers adjusted OIBDA as a financial performance measure that supplements but does not replace the information reflected in our GAAP results.

The following table shows adjusted OIBDA for the three and six months ended March 31,June 30, 2013 and 2012:

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company has four principal sources of funds available to meet the financing needs of its operations, capital projects, debt service, investments and potential dividends.  These sources include cash flows from operations, existing balances of cash and cash equivalents, the liquidation of investments and borrowings.  Management routinely considers the alternatives available to determine what mix of sources are best suited for the long-term benefit of the Company.

Sources and Uses of Cash. The Company generated $22.7$52.2 million of net cash from operations in the first threesix months of 2013, compared to $22.5$44.5 million in the first threesix months of 2012.  Net income increased from the 2012 period to 2013, including the effects of non-cash items such as depreciation, amortization, deferred income taxes and provisions for bad debt.  A smaller decrease in income taxes receivable in the first three months of 2013 compared to 2012 offset the improvementsThe increase in net income described above.was partially offset by a decrease in cash provided by net changes in assets and liabilities.

Indebtedness.Indebtedness. As of March 31,June 30, 2013, the Company’s indebtedness totaled $231.4$230.7 million, with an annualized overall weighted average interest rate of approximately 2.97%.3.60% after considering the impact of swap contracts. Following the expiration of the 2010 swap and payoff of fixed rate debt during the third quarter of 2013, the weighted average interest rate is expected to approximate 3.41% at current LIBOR rates.  The Company has $50 million available under the Revolving Facility, and the right to borrow up to $100 million under one or more Incremental Term Loan facilities, subject to certain restrictions.  The Revolving Facility and Incremental Term Loan Facility are both subject to the terms of the Restated and Amended Credit Agreement entered into in September 2012.
 
The Company is bound by certain financial covenants under its Credit Agreement. Noncompliance with any one or more of the debt covenants may have an adverse effect on our financial condition or liquidity in the event such noncompliance cannot be cured or should we be unable to obtain a waiver from the lenders. As of March 31,June 30, 2013, the Company was in compliance with all debt covenants, and ratios at March 31,June 30, 2013 were as follows:

 Actual 
Covenant Requirement at
March 31,June 30, 2013
Total Leverage Ratio1.971.89 3.00 or Lower
Debt Service Coverage Ratio6.658.98 2.50 or Higher
Equity to Assets Ratio38.3% 38.3%30.0% or Higher
 
In accordance with the Credit Agreement, the total leverage and debt service coverage ratios noted above are based on the twelve months ended March 31,June 30, 2013. In addition to the covenants above, the Company is required to supply the lender with quarterly financial statements and other reports as defined by the Credit Agreement. As a result of the improved leverage ratio reported as of March 31, 2013, effective May 28, 2013, the margin over LIBOR on the Company’s variable rate debt was reduced from 2.75% to 2.50%. The Company was in compliance with all reporting requirements at March 31,June 30, 2013.

The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements (other than operating leases) and has not entered into any transactions involving unconsolidated, limited purpose entities or commodity contracts.

Capital Commitments. Capital expenditures budgeted for 2013 total $125.2 million.  Planned spending contemplates the replacement of remaining base stations in our wireless network as part of Sprint Nextel’sSprint’s Network Vision project started in 2012, as well as adding capacity to our PCS network, new towers to support the expansion of PCS network capacity, and on-goingongoing spending to expand and upgrade our fiber networks and information technology capabilities.  Cable segment capital spending for 2013 includedincludes spending for upgrades of the last acquired Cable markets, extensions of current systems and other continuing cable segment expenditures.

For the first threesix months of 2013, the Company spent $26.0$48.5 million on capital projects, compared to $14.8$32.3 million in the comparable 2012 period.  Spending related to Wireless projects accounted for $20.0$35.0 million in the first threesix months of 2013, primarily for base station upgrades, while Cable projects accounted for $2.9capital spending of $6.6 million primarily forrelated to network upgrades to support new services or customers. Wireline projects accounted for $1.9$4.5 million, driven primarily forby fiber builds and switching/routing capability, and othercapability.  Other projects accounted for $1.2totaled $2.4 million, largely related to information technology projects.

The Company received $1.1$3.3 million in cash from sales of Converged Services properties completed during the first quartersix months of 2012.

The Company believes that cash on hand, cash flow from operations and borrowings expected to be available under the Company’s existing credit facilities will provide sufficient cash to enable the Company to fund planned capital expenditures, make scheduled principal and interest payments, meet its other cash requirements and maintain compliance with the terms of its financing agreements for at least the next twelve months.  Thereafter, capital expenditures will likely continue to be required to provide increased capacity to meet the Company’s expected growth in demand for its products and services. The actual amount and timing of the Company’s future capital requirements may differ materially from the Company’s estimate depending on the demand for its products and new market developments and opportunities.

The Company’s cash flows from operations could be adversely affected by events outside the Company’s control, including, without limitation, changes in overall economic conditions, regulatory requirements, changes in technologies, demand for its products, availability of labor resources and capital, changes in the Company’s relationship with Sprint, Nextel, and other conditions.  The Wireless segment’s operations are dependent upon Sprint Nextel’sSprint’s ability to execute certain functions such as billing, customer care, and collections; the subsidiary’s ability to develop and implement successful marketing programs and new products and services; and the subsidiary’s ability to effectively and economically manage other operating activities under the Company's agreements with Sprint Nextel.Sprint.   The Company's ability to attract and maintain a sufficient customer base, particularly in the acquired cable markets, is also critical to its ability to maintain a positive cash flow from operations.  The foregoing events individually or collectively could affect the Company’s results.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards
 
There were no recently issued accounting standards, not adopted by the Company as of March 31,June 30, 2013, that are expected to have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial condition.

The Company’s market risks relate primarily to changes in interest rates on instruments held for other than trading purposes.  The Company’s interest rate risk generally involves three components.  The first component is outstanding debt with variable rates.  As of March 31,June 30, 2013, the Company had $230.0 million of variable rate debt outstanding, bearing interest at a rate of 2.95%2.70% as determined on a monthly basis. An increase in market interest rates of 1.00% would add approximately $2.3 million to annual interest expense, excluding the effect of interest rate swaps.  An additional $1.2$0.5 million of the Company’s outstanding debt has a fixed rate of 7.37% through maturity in August 2013; the remaining $0.3$0.2 million of outstanding debt bears no interest.  Due to the relatively short time frame to maturity of the fixed rate debt, market value approximates carrying value of the fixed rate debt.  The Company entered into two swap agreements that, through the maturity of the 2010 swap agreement on July 31, 2013, cover notional principal equal to nearly all of the outstanding variable rate debt to pay a blended fixed rate of just over 1.00% and receive a variable rate based on one month LIBOR; subsequently, the 2012 swap agreement covers notional principal equal to approximately 76% of the outstanding variable rate debt through maturity in 2019, requiring the Company to pay a fixed rate of 1.13% and receive a variable rate based on one month LIBOR, to manage a portion of its interest rate risk.   The 2012 swap currently adds approximately $1.6 million to annual interest expense, based on the spread between the fixed rate and the variable rate currently in effect on our debt.

The second component of interest rate risk consists of temporary excess cash, which can be invested in various short-term investment vehicles such as overnight repurchase agreements and Treasury bills with a maturity of less than 90 days.  The cash is currently invested in a combination of a commercial checking account that has limited interest rate risk and two treasury bills with face amountsthree money market mutual funds that contain a total investment of $5 million each which will mature at par in April and May of 2013.$35 million.  Management continues to evaluate the most beneficial use of these funds.

The third component of interest rate risk is marked increases in interest rates that may adversely affect the rate at which the Company may borrow funds for growth in the future.  If the Company should borrow additional funds under any Incremental Term Loan Facility to fund its capital investment needs, repayment provisions would be agreed to at the time of each draw under the Incremental Term Loan Facility.  If the interest rate margin on any draw exceeds by more than 0.25% the applicable interest rate margin on the Term Loan A Facility, the applicable interest rate margin on the Term Loan A Facility shall be increased to equal the interest rate margin on the Incremental Term Loan Facility.  If interest rates increase generally, or if the rate applied under the Company’s Incremental Term Loan Facility causes the Company’s outstanding debt to be repriced, the Company’s future interest costs could increase.

Management views market risk as having a potentially significant impact on the Company's results of operations, as future results could be adversely affected if interest rates were to increase significantly for an extended period, or if the Company’s need for additional external financing resulted in increases to the interest rates applied to all of its new and existing debt.  The Company will have approximately $55 million of variable rate debt with no interest rate protection outstanding after August of 2013.  The Company’s investments in publicly traded stock and bond mutual funds under the rabbi trust, which are subject to market risks and could experience significant swings in market values, are offset by corresponding changes in the liabilities owed to participants in the Executive Supplemental Retirement Plan.  General economic conditions affected by regulatory changes, competition or other external influences may pose a higher risk to the Company’s overall results.

As of March 31,June 30, 2013, the Company has $6.3$6.4 million of cost and equity method investments.  Approximately $2.1 million is invested in privately held companies through investments with portfolio managers.  Most of the companies are in an early stage of development and significant increases in interest rates could have an adverse impact on their results, ability to raise capital and viability.  The Company’s market risk is limited to the funds previously invested.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Management, with the participation of our President and Chief Executive Officer, who is the principal executive officer, and the Vice President - Finance and Chief Financial Officer, who is the principal financial officer, conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined by Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.  The Company's principal executive officer and its principal financial officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31,June 30, 2013.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

During the firstsecond quarter of 2013, there were no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, its internal control over financial reporting.

Other Matters Relating to Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Under the Company’s agreements with Sprint, Nextel, Sprint Nextel provides the Company with billing, collections, customer care, certain network operations and other back office services for the PCS operation. As a result, Sprint Nextel remits to the Company approximately 58%59% of the Company’s total operating revenues.  Due to this relationship, the Company necessarily relies on Sprint Nextel to provide accurate, timely and sufficient data and information to properly record the Company’s revenues, and accounts receivable, which underlie a substantial portion of the Company’s periodic financial statements and other financial disclosures.

Information provided by Sprint Nextel includes reports regarding the subscriber accounts receivable in the Company’s markets.  Sprint Nextel provides the Company with monthly accounts receivable, billing and cash receipts information on a market level, rather than a subscriber level.  The Company reviews these various reports to identify discrepancies or errors.  Under the Company’s agreements with Sprint, Nextel, the Company is entitled to only a portion of the receipts, net of items such as taxes, government surcharges, certain allocable write-offs and the 20.0% of revenue retained by Sprint Nextel.Sprint.  Effective August 1, 2013, Sprint’s revenue retention will increase to 22.0%. Because of the Company’s reliance on Sprint Nextel for financial information, the Company must depend on Sprint Nextel to design adequate internal controls with respect to the processes established to provide this data and information to the Company and Sprint Nextel’sSprint’s other Sprint PCS affiliate network partners.  To address this issue, Sprint Nextel engages an independent registered public accounting firm to perform a periodic evaluation of these controls and to provide a “Report on Controls Placed in Operation and Tests of Operating Effectiveness” under guidance provided in Statements on Standards for Attestation Engagements No. 16 (“SSAE 16”).  The report is provided to the Company on an annual basis and covers a nine-month period. The most recent report covered the period from January 1, 2012 to September 30, 2012.  The most recent report indicated there were no material issues which would adversely affect the information used to support the recording of the revenues provided by Sprint Nextel related to the Company’s relationship with them.

PART II.OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1A.

As previously discussed, our actual results could differ materially from our forward-looking statements. Except as described below, there have been no material changes in the risk factors  from those described in Part 1, Item 1A of  the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012.

On April 15, 2013, Dish Network CorporationSince December 31, 2012, the proposed transaction between Sprint Nextel and Softbank Corp. has been completed and Sprint Nextel will now be known as Sprint Corp.  Sprint has completed their proposed acquisition of the portion of Clearwire they did not previously own, and Softbank Corp. has announced that it had madewill invest an offeradditional $16 billion in Sprint primarily for investment in Sprint’s network over the next two years, and that it will not make significant changes to acquire Sprint Nextel for $25.5 billion, competing with Softbank Corporation’s previously announced offer to acquire 70% of Sprint Nextel for $20.1 billion.  The terms of these proposed transactions,Sprint’s corporate structure or delays in consummating a transaction, could affect Sprint Nextel’s business in a way that could be adverse to us.
