Split-off of Liberty Latin America from Liberty Global

On December 29, 2017, Liberty Global completed the split-off (the Split-Off) of our company, which at such time was one of Liberty Global's wholly-owned subsidiaries. In the Split-Off, 48,428,841 Class A common shares, 1,940,193 Class B common shares and 120,843,539 Class C common shares of Liberty Latin America (collectively Liberty Latin America Shares) were issued. As a result of the Split-Off, Liberty Latin America became an independent, publicly traded company, and its assets and liabilities as of the time of the Split-Off consisted of the businesses, assets and liabilities that were formerly attributed to Liberty Global’s “LiLAC Group.” The Split-Off was accounted for at historical cost due to the pro rata distribution of Liberty Latin America Shares to holders of Liberty Global’s LiLAC Shares, as defined below.

Several agreements were entered into in connection with the Split-Off (the Split-Off Agreements) between Liberty Latin America, Liberty Global and/or certain of their respective subsidiaries, including the Tax Sharing Agreement, the Reorganization Agreement, the Services Agreement, the Sublease Agreement and the Facilities Sharing Agreement, each as defined and described in note 11.

(2)Accounting Changes and Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Accounting Changes

ASU 2014-092016-02
In May 2014,February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-09,2016-02, Revenue from Contracts with Customers Leases(ASU 2014-092016-02), as amended by ASU No. 2018-11, Targeted Improvements, which requiresprovides an entityoption to recognizeuse one of two modified retrospective approaches in the amountadoption of revenue to which it expects to be entitledASU 2016-02. ASU 2016-02, for most leases, results in lessees recognizing right-of-use assets and lease liabilities on the transfer of promised goods or services to customers.balance sheet and additional disclosures. We adopted ASU 2014-092016-02 effective January 1, 2018 by recording2019 using the cumulative effect toeffective date transition method. A number of optional practical expedients were applied in transition, as further described below.
The main impact of the openingadoption of this standard was the recognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance of our accumulated deficit. We applied the new standard to contracts that were not completesheet as of January 1, 2018. The comparative information has2019 for those leases classified as operating leases under ASU 2016-02. We did not been restated and continuesrecognize right-of-use assets or lease liabilities for leases with a term of 12 months or less, as permitted by the short-term lease practical expedient in the standard. In transition, we applied the practical expedients that permit us not to be reportedreassess (i) whether expired or existing contracts are or contain a lease under the accounting standardsnew standard, (ii) the lease classification for expired or existing leases, (iii) whether previously-capitalized initial direct costs would qualify for capitalization under the new standard and (iv) whether existing or expired land easements that were not previously accounted for as leases are or contain a lease. We also applied the practical expedient that permits us to account for customer service revenue contracts that include both non-lease and lease components as a single component in effect for those periods.

The most significant impacts of ASU 2014-09 on our revenue recognition policies relate to our accounting for (i) long-term capacity contracts, (ii) subsidized handset plans and (iii) certain installation and other upfront fees, each as set forth below:

We enter into certain long-term capacity contracts with customersall instances where the customer paysnon-lease component is the transaction consideration at inceptionpredominant component of the contract. Under previous accounting standards,arrangement and the other applicable criteria are met. In addition, we did not impute interest for advance payments from customers related to services that are provided over time. Under ASU 2014-09, payment received from a customer significantly in advance of the provision of services is indicative of a financing component within the contract. If the financing component is significant, interest expense is accreted over the life of the contract with a corresponding increase to revenue.

ASU 2014-09 requires the identification of deliverables in contracts with customers that qualify as performance obligations. The transaction price consideration from customers is allocated to each performance obligation under the contract on the basis of relative standalone selling price. Under previous accounting standards, when we offered discounted equipment, such as handsets under a subsidized contract, upfront revenue recognition was limited to the upfront cash collected from the customer as the remaining monthly fees to be received from the customer, including fees associated with the equipment, were contingent upon delivering future airtime. This limitation is not applied under ASU 2014-09. The primary impact on revenue reporting is that when we sell discounted equipment together with airtime services to customers, revenue allocated to equipment and recognized when control of the device passes to the customer will increase and revenue recognized as services are delivered will decrease.

When we enter into contracts to provide services to our customers, we often charge installation or other upfront fees. Under previous accounting standards, installation fees related to services provided over our fixed networks were recognized as revenueuse hindsight during the period in which the installation occurred to the extent those fees were equal to or less than direct selling costs. Under ASU 2014-09, these fees are generally deferred and recognized as revenue over the contractual period for those contracts with substantive termination penalties, or for the period of time the upfront fees convey a material right for month-to-month contracts and contracts that do not include substantive termination penalties.

ASU 2014-09 also impacted our accounting for certain upfront costs directly associated with obtaining and fulfilling customer contracts. Under our previous policy, these costs were expensed as incurred unless the costs were in the scope of other accounting standards that allowed for capitalization. Under ASU 2014-09, the upfront costs associated with contracts that have substantive termination penalties and a term of longer than one year are recognized as assets and amortized to other operating expenses over the applicable period benefited. 

transition.
We implemented internal controls to ensure we adequately evaluatedevaluate our contracts and properly assessed the impact of ASU 2014-092016-02 on our condensed consolidated financial statements. We do not believe such new controls represent significant changes to our internal control over financial reporting.

adoption of the additional disclosures until their effective date. As of December 31, 2018, we early adopted the portion of ASU 2017-072018-13 that allows for the removal of certain fair value measurement disclosures from our consolidated financial statements. We do not expect the remaining disclosure requirements of ASU 2018-13 will have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
ASU 2018-14
In March 2017,August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-07,2018-14, Compensation -Disclosure Framework-Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans Retirement Benefits—Improving the Presentation of the Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost(ASU 2017-072018-14), which includes changesremoves and modifies certain existing disclosure requirements and adds new disclosure requirements related to the presentation of periodicemployer sponsored defined benefit cost components.

ASU 2017-07, we will continue to present the service component of our net benefit cost as a component of operating income but present the other components of our net benefit cost computation, which can include credits, within non-operating income (expense) in our consolidated statements of operations. We adopted ASU 2017-07 on January 1, 2018. The change in presentation to our condensed consolidated statements of operations from ASU 2017-07 was applied on a retrospective basis. As a result of the adoption of ASU 2017-07, we have presented $3 million of pension-related credits in other income, netin our condensed consolidated statements of operations for each of the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

ASU 2016-02

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (ASU 2016-02), which, for most leases, will result in lessees recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet with additional disclosures about leasing arrangements. ASU 2016-02 requires lessees and lessors to recognize and measure leases at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach. The modified retrospective approach and additional guidance provided by ASU 2018-01, Leases (Topic 842)—Land Easement Practical Expedient for Transition to Topic 842, includes a number of optional practical expedients an entity may elect to apply. ASU 2016-022018-14 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018,2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. We will adopt ASU 2016-02 on January 1, 2019. Although we are currently evaluating the effect that ASU 2016-022018-14 will have on our disclosures.
ASU 2018-15
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software—Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract (ASU 2018-15). ASU 2018-15 provides additional guidance on ASU No. 2015-05, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software—Customer’s Accounting for Fees Paid in a Cloud Computing Arrangement, which was issued to help entities evaluate the accounting for fees paid by a customer in a cloud computing arrangement (hosting arrangement) by providing guidance for determining when the arrangement includes a software license. ASU 2018-15 aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software (and hosting arrangements that include an internal-use software license). The guidance (i) provides criteria for determining which implementation costs to capitalize as an asset related to the service contract and which costs to expense, (ii) requires an entity (customer) to expense the capitalized implementation costs of a hosting arrangement that is a service contract over the term of the hosting arrangement and (iii) clarifies the presentation requirements for reporting such costs in the entity’s financial statements. ASU 2018-15 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. ASU 2018-15 should be applied either retrospectively or prospectively to all implementation costs incurred after the date of adoption. We expect to apply ASU 2018-15 prospectively and are currently evaluating the effect that ASU 2018-15 will have on our consolidated financial statements the main impact of the adoption of this standard will be the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets for those leases classified as operating leases under previous U.S. GAAP. ASU 2016-02 will not have significant impacts on our consolidated statements of operations or cash flows.related disclosures.

Contract AssetsLeases
When we transfer goods or servicesWe classify leases with a term of greater than 12 months where substantially all risks and rewards incidental to a customer but do not have an unconditional right to payment, weownership are retained by the third-party lessors as operating leases. We record a contract asset. Contract assets are reclassified to trade receivables, net in our consolidated balance sheetright-of-use asset and an operating lease liability at inception of the lease at the pointpresent value of the lease payments plus certain other payments, including variable lease payments and amounts probable of being owed by us under residual value guarantees. Payments made under operating leases, net of any incentives received from the lessors, are recognized to expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Initial direct costs incurred in time we have the unconditional rightnegotiating and arranging operating leases are recognized to payment.expense when incurred. Contingent rental payments are recognized to expense when incurred. Our contract assets were $12 million and $13 million as of March 31, 2018 and January 1, 2018, respectively. The change in our contract assets during the three months ended March 31, 2018 were not material. The current and long-term portion of contractright-of-use assets are included in other assets, net, in our condensed consolidated balance sheet. Our current assetsand non-current operating lease liabilities are included in other accrued and current liabilities and other assets, net,long-term liabilities, respectively, in our condensed consolidated balance sheet.
Deferred Contract Costs
Incremental costs to obtain a contract with a customer, such as incremental sales commissions, are recognized as an asset and amortized to SG&A expenses over the applicable period benefited, which is the longer of the contract life or the economic life of the commission. If, however, the amortization period is one year or less, we expense such costs in the period incurred. Costs to obtain a contract that would have been incurred regardless of whether the contract was obtained are recognized as an expense when incurred. Our deferred contract costs were$10 million and $9 million as of March 31, 2018 and January 1, 2018, respectively. The change in our contract assets during the three months ended March 31, 2018 were not material.

Deferred RevenueOur operating leases primarily consist of (i) property leases for mobile tower locations that generally have initial terms of five to ten years with one or more renewal options and (ii) lease commitments for (a) retail stores, offices and facilities, (b) other network assets and (c) other equipment. It is expected that in the normal course of business, operating leases that expire generally will be renewed or replaced by similar leases.

We use a credit-adjusted discount rate to measure our operating lease liabilities. We derive the discount rates associated with each of our borrowing groups starting with a risk free rate, generally the U.S. Treasury Bill rate. To determine credit risk, we create an industry benchmark credit default swap (CDS) curve from an observable high-yield debt index using comparable telecommunication companies as a proxy. We then determine the maximum curve shift against this CDS curve derived from our own tradable debt within each borrowing group, and make adjustments to correct for the collateralized interest rate spread by comparing unsecured debt to asset-backed securities (secured debt) trades, which is based on the spread between the BB- and B+ industrial curves. We determine the discount factor from this adjusted curve for each borrowing group.

Revenue Recognition
General.Most of our fixed and mobile residential contracts are not enforceable or do not contain substantive early termination penalties. Accordingly, revenue relating to these customers is recognized on a basis consistent with these customers that are not subject to contracts.
Subscription Revenue – Fixed Networks. We recognize revenue from video, broadband internet and fixed-line telephony services over our fixed networks to customers in the period the related subscription services are provided. Installation or other upfront fees related to services provided over our fixed networks are generally deferred and recognized as subscription revenue over the contractual period, or longer if the upfront fee results in a material renewal right.
We may also sell video, broadband internet and fixed-line telephony services to our customers in bundled packages at a rate lower than if the customer purchased each product on a standalone basis. Arrangement consideration from bundled packages generally is allocated proportionally to the individual service based on the relative standalone price for each respective product or service.
Mobile Revenue – General. Consideration from mobile contracts is allocated to airtime services and handset sales based on the relative standalone prices of each performance obligation.
Mobile Revenue – Airtime Services. We recognize revenue from mobile services in the period the related services are provided. Payments received from prepay customers are recorded as deferred revenue prior to the commencement of services and are recognized as revenue as the services are rendered or usage rights expire.
Mobile Revenue – Handset Revenue. Arrangement consideration allocated to handsets is recognized as revenue2016-02 when the goods have been transferred to the customer.
B2B Revenue – Installation Revenue. We defer upfront installation and certain nonrecurring fees received on B2B contracts where we maintain ownership of the installed equipment. The deferred fees are amortized into revenue on a straight-line basis over the term of the arrangement or the expected period of performance.
Sub-sea Network Revenue – Long-term Capacity Contracts. We enter into certain long-term capacity contracts with customers where the customer either pays a fixed fee over time or prepays for the capacity upfront and pays a portion related to operating and maintenance of the network over time. We assess whether prepaid capacity contracts contain a significant financing component. If the financing component is significant, interest expense is accreted over the life of the contract using the effective interestdate transition method. The revenue associated with prepaid capacity contracts is deferred and recognized on a straight-line basis over the life of the contract.

(4)Acquisitions
Pending2019 Acquisition
UTS. Effective March 31, 2019, we completed the acquisition of an 87.5% interest in UTS for a cash purchase price of $161 million, subject to certain potential post-closing adjustments, based on an enterprise value of $189 million (the UTS Acquisition). UTS provides fixed and mobile services to the island nations of Curaçao, St. Maarten, St. Martin, Bonaire, St. Barths, St. Eustatius and Saba. The UTS Acquisition was funded through a $170 million draw on the C&W Revolving Credit Facility. For further information on the draw of the C&W Revolving Credit Facility, see note 9.
We have accounted for the UTS Acquisition as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting, whereby the total purchase price was allocated to the acquired identifiable net assets of UTS based on assessments of their respective fair values, and the excess of the purchase price over the fair values of these identifiable net assets was allocated to goodwill. The preliminary opening balance sheet is subject to adjustment based on our final assessment of the fair values of the acquired identifiable assets and liabilities. The valuation process remains open and our opening balance sheet will change as we finalize our valuation. The items with the highest likelihood to change upon finalization of the valuation process include property and equipment, goodwill, intangible assets and income taxes.A summary of the purchase price and preliminary opening balance sheet of UTS at the effective March 31, 2019 acquisition date is presented in the following table (in millions):

(b)Excludes $3 million of direct acquisition costs, including $1 million incurred during 2018. Direct acquisition costs are included in impairment, restructuring and other operating items, net, in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Our condensed consolidated statements of operations for each of the three and six months ended June 30,2019 include revenue of $33 million and net earnings of $3 million attributable to UTS.
2018 Acquisition
Cabletica. On February 12, 2018, we entered into a definitive agreement to acquire 80% of Costa Rican cable operator, “Cabletica,” which is part ofcertain assets and liabilities related to Televisora de Costa Rica S.A.’s (Televisora) cable operations in an all cash transaction. In the transaction, Costa Rica (“Cabletica was valued at”) based on an enterprise value of $252 million, subject to certain customary adjustments. As part of the agreement, the owners of Televisora retained a 20% ownership interest in Costa Rican Colon (CRC) of CRC 143 billion ($252 million). We intend to financeCabletica. On October 1, 2018, we completed the acquisition of our 80% interest (the Cabletica Acquisition) for an effective purchase price of $226 million, after working capital adjustments and deducting the 80%value of Televisora’s retained equity stake ininterest. The Cabletica Acquisition was financed through a combination of incremental debt and existing liquidity. The current ownerscash.
We have accounted for the Cabletica Acquisition as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting, whereby the total purchase price was allocated to the acquired identifiable net assets of Cabletica will retainbased on assessments of their respective fair values, and the remaining 20% interest. The transaction is subjectexcess of the purchase price over the fair values of these identifiable net assets was allocated to customary closing adjustments and conditions, including regulatory approvals, and is expected to close during the second half of 2018.

2017 Acquisition
Carve-out Entities. On May 16, 2016, Liberty Global acquired C&W (the C&W Acquisition), which was contributedgoodwill. The preliminary opening balance sheet is subject to adjustment based on our company as partfinal assessment of the Split-Off. In connectionfair values of the acquired identifiable assets and liabilities. Although most items in the valuation process remain open, the items with the C&W Acquisition and C&W’s acquisition of Columbus International Inc. and its subsidiaries in 2015 (the Columbus Acquisition), certain entities (the Carve-out Entities) that hold licenses granted by the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (the FCC) were transferredhighest likelihood to entities not controlled by C&W (collectively, New Cayman).The arrangements with respect to the Carve-out Entities, which were executed in connection with the Columbus Acquisition and the C&W Acquisition, contemplated thatchange upon receipt of regulatory approval, we would acquire the Carve-out Entities. On March 8, 2017, the FCC granted its approval for Liberty Global’s acquisitionfinalization of the Carve-out Entities. Accordingly, on April 1, 2017, subsidiariesvaluation process include property and equipment, goodwill, intangible assets and income taxes. A summary of C&W acquired the Carve-out Entities (the C&W Carve-out Acquisition) for an aggregate purchase price and preliminary opening balance sheet of $86 million, which representsCabletica at the amount due under notes receivable that were exchanged forOctober 1, 2018 acquisition date is presented in the equity of the Carve-out Entities.following table (in millions):

(d)Excludes $5 million of direct acquisition costs, including $3 million incurred during 2018.
(5)Derivative Instruments
In general, we seek to enter into derivative instruments to protect against (i) increases in the interest rates on our variable-rate debt and (ii) foreign currency movements, particularly with respect to borrowings that are denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the borrowing entity. In this regard, through our subsidiaries, we have entered into various derivative instruments to manage interest rate exposure and foreign currency exposure with respect to the U.S. dollar ($), the British pound sterling (£), the Chilean peso (CLP), the Colombian peso (COP) and the Jamaican dollar (JMD) and the Colombian peso (COP). With the exception of certain foreign currency forward contracts, we do not apply hedge accounting to our derivative instruments. Accordingly, changes in the fair values of most of our derivative instruments are recorded in realized and unrealized gains or losses on derivative instruments in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Counterparty Credit Risk
We are exposed to the risk that the counterparties to the derivative instruments of our borrowing groups will default on their obligations to us.  We manage these credit risks through the evaluation and monitoring of the creditworthiness of, and concentration of risk with, the respective counterparties. In this regard, credit risk associated with our derivative instruments is spread across a relatively broad counterparty base of banks and financial institutions. Collateral has not been posted by either party under the derivative instruments of our borrowing groups. At March 31, 2018,June 30, 2019, our exposure to counterparty credit risk included derivative assets with an aggregate fair value of $549 million.
Each of our borrowing groups has entered into derivative instruments under agreements with each counterparty that contain master netting arrangements that are applicable in the event of early termination by either party to such derivative instrument. The master netting arrangements under each of these master agreements are limited to the derivative instruments governed by the relevant master agreement within each individual borrowing group and are independent of similar arrangements of our other subsidiary borrowing groups.

Details of our Derivative Instruments
Cross-currency Derivative Contracts
As noted above, we are exposed to foreign currency exchange rate risk in situations where our debt is denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the operations whose cash flows support our ability to service, repay or refinance such debt. Although we generally seek to match the denomination of our subsidiaries’ borrowings with the functional currency of the operations that are supporting the respective borrowings, market conditions or other factors may cause us to enter into borrowing arrangements that are not denominated in the functional currency of the underlying operations (unmatched debt). Our policy is generally to provide for an economic hedge against foreign currency exchange rate movements, whenever possible and when cost effective to do so, by using derivative instruments to synthetically convert unmatched debt into the applicable underlying currency. The following table sets forth the total notional amounts and the related weighted average remaining contractual lives of our cross-currency swap contracts at March 31, 2018:June 30, 2019:

Interest Rate Derivative Contracts
Interest Rate Swaps
As noted above, we enter into interest rate swaps to protect against increases in the interest rates on our variable-rate debt. Pursuant to these derivative instruments, we typically pay fixed interest rates and receive variable interest rates on specified notional amounts. The following table sets forth the total U.S. dollar equivalents of the notional amounts and the related weighted average remaining contractual lives of our interest rate swap contracts at March 31, 2018:June 30, 2019:

Basis Swaps
Basis swaps involve the exchange of attributes used to calculate our floating interest rates, including (i) the benchmark rate, (ii) the underlying currency and/or (iii) the borrowing period. We typically enter into these swaps to optimize our interest rate profile based on our current evaluations of yield curves, our risk management policies and other factors. At March 31, 2018,The following table sets forth the total U.S. dollar equivalentequivalents of the notional amounts of these derivative instruments was $3,750 million and the related weighted average remaining contractual lifelives of our basis swap contracts was 1.2 years.

As of March 31, 2018,At June 30, 2019, the total U.S. dollar equivalent of the notional amountamounts of our foreign currency forward contracts was $228164 million alland the related weighted average remaining contractual life of whichour foreign currency forward contracts was 0.5 years. All of our our foreign currency forward contracts are held by subsidiaries of our VTR Finance borrowing group.

(6)Fair Value Measurements
General
We use the fair value method to account for our derivative instruments and the available-for-sale method to account for our investment in the United Kingdom (U.K.) Government Gilts. The reported fair values of our derivative instruments as of March 31, 2018June 30, 2019 likely will not represent the value that will be paid or received upon the ultimate settlement or disposition of these assets and liabilities, as we expect that the values realized generally will be based on market conditions at the time of settlement, which may occur at the maturity of the derivative instrument or at the time of the repayment or refinancing of the underlying debt instrument.
U.S. GAAP provides for a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. Level 1 inputs are quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date. Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted market prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. We record transfers of assets or liabilities into or out of Levels 1, 2 or 3 at the beginning of the quarter during which the transfer occurred. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, no such transfers were made.
Recurring Fair Value Measurements
Derivatives
In order to manage our interest rate and foreign currency exchange risk, we have entered into various derivative instruments, as further described in note 5. The recurring fair value measurements of these derivative instruments are determined using discounted cash flow models. Most of the inputs to these discounted cash flow models consist of, or are derived from, observable Level 2 data for substantially the full term of these derivative instruments. This observable data mostly includes interest rate futures and swap rates, which are retrieved or derived from available market data. Although we may extrapolate or interpolate this data, we do not otherwise alter this data in performing our valuations. We incorporate a credit risk valuation adjustment in our fair value measurements to estimate the impact of both our own nonperformance risk and the nonperformance risk of our counterparties. Our and our counterparties’ credit spreads represent our most significant Level 3 inputs, and these inputs are used to derive the credit risk valuation adjustments with respect to these instruments. As we would not expect changes in our or our counterparties’ credit spreads to have a significant impact on the valuations of these instruments, we have determined that these valuations fall under Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Our credit risk valuation adjustments with respect to our cross-currency and interest rate derivative contracts are quantified and further explained in note 5. Due to the lack of Level 2 inputs for the valuation of the U.S dollar to the Jamaican dollar cross-currency swaps (the Sable Currency Swaps) held by Sable International Finance Limited (Sable), a wholly-owned subsidiary of C&W, we believe this valuation falls under Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. The Sable

Currency Swaps are our only Level 3 financial instruments. The fair values of the Sable Currency Swaps at March 31, 2018June 30, 2019 and December 31, 20172018 were $27$31 millionand $22$36 million, respectively, which are included in other

The change in the fair values of the Sable Currency Swaps resulted in net lossesgains (losses) of $5$4 million and $4 million($7 million) during the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and 2017,$5 million and ($12 million) during the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, which are reflected in realized and unrealized lossesgains (losses) on derivative instruments, net, in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. Our credit risk valuation adjustments with respect to our cross-currency and interest rate swaps are quantified and further explained in note 5.
Available-for-sale Investments
Our investment in the U.K. Government Gilts falls under Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. At March 31, 2018June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2017,2018, the carrying values of our investment in the U.K. Government Gilts, which are included in other assets, net, in our condensed consolidated balance sheets, was $33were $36 million and $37$35 million, respectively.
Nonrecurring Fair Value Measurements
Conversion Option – Convertible Notes
As further described and defined in note 9, our Convertible Notes include a Conversion Option that we bifurcated from the Convertible Notes and recorded at fair value upon issuance as an equity component in our condensed consolidated statement of equity. The fair value of the liability component was calculated by measuring the fair value of a similar liability that does not have an associated convertible feature, which was established using the present value of cash flows associated with such instrument based on a 5-year tenor and an estimated yield rate of 6.7%, which is a Level 2 input. The fair value of the equity component was determined by deducting the fair value of the liability component from the proceeds received on issuance of the Convertible Notes.
Other
Fair value measurements are also used for purposes of nonrecurring valuations performed in connection with acquisitions and impairment assessments. We did not perform any significant nonrecurring fair value measurements related to these assessments during the six months ended June 30, 2019.
(7)Insurance Recoveries
In September 2017, Hurricanes Irma and Maria (the Hurricanes) impacted a number of our markets in the Caribbean, resulting in varying degrees of damage to homes, businesses and infrastructure in these markets. In October 2016, our operations in the Bahamas, which is part of our C&W segment, were significantly impacted by Hurricane Matthew.
In December 2018, we settled our insurance claims for Hurricanes Irma, Maria and Matthew, as follows: (i) $109 million for Hurricanes Maria and Irma, after deducting $30 million of self-insurance, and (ii) $12 million for Hurricane Matthew, after deducting $15 million of self-insurance.
During the first quarter of 2019, we received the remaining outstanding insurance settlement amount of $67 million, of which $33 million and $34 million have been presented as operating and investing activities, respectively, in our condensed consolidated statement of cash flows. With respect to the cash received, $37 million, $27 million and $3 million was provided to C&W, Liberty Puerto Rico and our Corporate operations, respectively.
Prior to 2019, we received net advance payments of $54 million associated with the initial insurance claim filed in connection with the Hurricanes, of which $30 million was received during the first half of 2018 and was provided to Liberty Puerto Rico. The net advance received during the first half of 2018 was included in operating activities in our condensed consolidated statement of cash flows.

Based on the results of our October 1, 20172018 goodwill impairment test, a hypothetical decline of 20% or moredeclines in the estimated fair value of certain C&W reporting units, that carryparticularly with respect to our Panamanian reporting unit, which had a goodwill balance or the Liberty Puerto Rico reporting unitof $976 million at June 30, 2019, could result in the need to record additional goodwill impairment charges. If, among other factors, (i) our equity values were to decline significantly or (ii) the adverse impacts of competition, economic, competitive, regulatory or other factors, including macro-economic and demographic trends, were to cause C&W’s or Liberty Puerto Rico’sour results of operations or cash flows to be worse than anticipated, we could conclude in future periods that additional impairment charges are required in order to reduce the carrying values of the goodwill cable television franchise rights and, to a lesser extent, other long-lived assets of these entities.

Liberty Latin AmericaConvertible Notes
In June 2019, Liberty Latin America issued $403 million principal amount of 2.0% convertible senior notes (the Convertible Notes) due July 15, 2024. Interest on the Convertible Notes is payable semi-annually on January 15 and July 15, beginning on January 15, 2020. The Convertible Notes are general unsecured obligations of the Company, are subordinated to all of our other debt and structurally subordinated to all liabilities of our subsidiaries.
Conversion Rights. Subject to certain conditions, and adjustments if certain events occur (as specified in the indenture governing the Convertible Notes), the Convertible Notes may be converted at a conversion rate initially equal to 44.9767 Class C common shares per $1,000 principal amount of the Convertible Notes (equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $22.23 per Class C common share), the “Conversion Option”. Any conversions of the Convertible Notes may be settled, at the election of the Company, in cash, Class C common shares or a combination thereof.
The Convertible Notes may be converted at the option of the holders at any time prior to the close of business on January 12, 2024, only under the following circumstances:
during any calendar quarter commencing after September 30, 2019 (and only during such calendar quarter), if the last reported sale price of our Class C common shares for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during the period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on and including the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the applicable conversion price of the Convertible Notes on each applicable trading day;
during the five consecutive business day period immediately after any five consecutive trading day period (the “measurement period”), in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of the Convertible Notes for each trading day of that measurement period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of our Class C common shares and the conversion rate on each such trading day;
if we give notice of redemption, as described below; or

The proceedsany time, regardless of the foregoing circumstances.
As of June 30, 2019, we determined the Conversion Option should be bifurcated from the term loan were primarily useddebt host instrument (the Convertible Notes) and accounted for as a separate financial instrument that qualifies for equity classification. Accordingly, we bifurcated the Conversion Option from the Convertible Notes and initially recorded the estimated fair value of $78 million as additional paid-in capital and debt discount. The debt discount will be accreted through interest expense, using the effective interest method, through maturity of the Convertible Notes or when the Conversion Option no longer qualifies for equity classification, if ever.
Redemption Rights. Other than a redemption for a change in certain tax laws, we may not redeem the Convertible Notes prior to repay existingJuly 19, 2022. On or after July 19, 2022 but prior to the 85th scheduled trading day immediately preceding July 15, 2024, we may redeem all or a portion of the notes for cash, if the last reported sale price of our Class C&W Panama debt. common shares has been at least 130% of the conversion price then in effect on (i) each of at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during the 30 consecutive trading day period ending on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the date on which we provide notice of redemption and (ii) the trading day immediately preceding the date we provide such notice.

(10)Unfulfilled Performance Obligations
We enter into certain long-term capacity contracts with customers where the customer either pays a fixed fee over time or prepays for the capacity upfront and pays a portion related to operating and maintenance of the network over time. We assess whether prepaid capacity contracts contain a significant financing component. If the financing component is significant, interest expense is accreted over the life of the contract using the effective interest method. The revenue associated with prepaid capacity contracts is deferred and generally recognized on a straight-line basis over the life of the contract. As of June 30, 2019, we haveapproximately $475 million of unfulfilled performance obligations relating to our long-term capacity contracts, primarily subsea contracts, that generally will be recognized as revenue over an average remaining life of seven years.

Income Taxes
We evaluate and update our estimated annual effective income tax rate on a quarterly basis based on current and forecasted operating results and tax laws. For interim tax reporting, we estimate an annual effective tax rate which is applied to year-to-date ordinary income or loss. The tax effect of significant unusual or infrequently occurring items are excluded from the estimated annual effective tax rate calculation and recognized in the interim period in which they occur.
Our interim estimate of our annual effective tax rate and our interim tax provision are subject to volatility due to factors such as jurisdictions in which our deferred taxes and/or tax attributes are subject to a full valuation allowance, relative changes in unrecognized tax benefits and changes in tax laws. Based upon the mix and timing of our actual annual earnings or loss compared to annual projections, as well as changes in the factors noted above, our effective tax rate may vary quarterly and may make quarterly comparisons not meaningful.
Income tax expense was approximately $17$30 million and $23$42 million during the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and 2017,$34 million and $58 million during the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. This represents an effective income tax rate of (44.8)%36.1% and68.5% (295.0%) for the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and 2017,28.6% and 249.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, including items treated discretely.

For the three and six months ended March 31, 2018,June 30, 2019, the income tax expense attributable to our lossearnings (loss) before income taxes differs from the amountamounts computed using the statutory tax rate, primarily due to the detrimental effects of international rate differences, increases in the valuation allowance,allowances, changes in uncertain tax positions, and negative effects of permanent items, such as non-deductible expenses. These negative impacts to our effective tax rate were partially offset by the beneficial effects of permanent items, such as non-taxable incomeincome. Additionally for the six months ended June 30, 2019, our effective tax rate reflects the beneficial effects of a change in the Barbados and price level restatements. Grenada statutory tax rates.

(10)(12)Equity
Capped Calls
In December 2017, in connection with challenging circumstances thatthe issuance of our Convertible Notes, Liberty Puerto Rico experienced as a result of the damage caused by hurricanes during September 2017, in particular Hurricane Maria, the LPR Credit Agreements were amended to provide for, among other things, an equity commitment of up to $60 millionLatin America entered into capped call option contracts (the LCPR Equity Commitment) from Liberty Puerto Rico’s shareholders through December 31, 2018 to fund potential liquidity shortfalls. Based on our 60% ownership in Liberty Puerto Rico, we are obligated for up to $36 million of the LCPR Equity Commitment. During the first quarter of 2018, a $25 million capital contribution was provided to Liberty Puerto Rico consisting of $15 million from usand $10 million from investment funds affiliated with Searchlight Capital Partners, L.P. (SearchlightCapped Calls). The Capped Calls are used as an economic hedge to reduce or offset potential dilution to our Class C common shares upon any conversion of the Convertible Notes and/or offset any cash payments we are required to make in excess of the principal amount of such converted notes, as the case may be, with such reduction and/or offset subject to a cap. Collectively, the Capped Calls cover, initially, the number of the Company’s Class C common shares underlying the Convertible Notes of 18.1 million. The Capped Calls have an initial strike price of $22.2337 per Class C common share and an initial cap price of $31.7625 per Class C common share, subject to anti-dilution adjustments substantially similar to those applicable to the conversion rate of the Convertible Notes, and expire on July 15, 2024. The Capped Calls are not considered a derivative instrument under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, as the contracts are indexed to our Class C common shares and therefore classified within shareholders’ equity. The aggregate premiums paid for the Capped Calls of $46 million are included in additional paid-in capital contribution from Searchlight is includedin our condensed consolidated statement of equity.
Conversion Option – Convertible Notes
In connection with the issuance of the Convertible Notes, we recorded $77 million in additional paid-in capital in our condensed consolidated statement of equity as an increase to noncontrolling interests.

Accordingly, Liberty Puerto Rico has up to an additional $15 million available under the LCPR Equity Commitment, of which we are obligated for up to $9 million.9.
Noncontrolling interests
During the first quarter of 2018, we increased our ownership in C&W Jamaica from 82.0% to 91.7% by acquiring 1,629,734,373 of the then issued and outstanding ordinary stock units of C&W Jamaica that we did not already own (the C&W Jamaica NCI Acquisition) for JMD $1.45 per share or JMD $2,363 million ($19 million)million at the transaction dates) of paid consideration.

The services that we provided to the Carve-out Entities were provided at the direction of, and subject to the ultimate control and oversight of, the Carve-out Entities. As discussed in note 4, C&W acquired the Carve-out Entities on April 1, 2017.
Allocated share-based compensation expenseVTR. Amount represents share-based compensation that Liberty Global allocated to us with respect to share-based incentive awards held by our employees.

Charges from Liberty Global. Following the LiLAC Transaction, Liberty Global began to allocate a portion of the costs of their corporate functions, excluding share-based compensation expense, to us based primarily on the estimated percentage of time spent by corporate personnel providing services to us. Effective January 1, 2017, the annual allocation was $12 million. The allocated costs, which were cash settled, are included in SG&A expenses in our condensed consolidated statement of operations. Although we believe the allocated costs are reasonable, no assurance can be given that such costs are reflective of the costs we would have incurred as a standalone company. Upon consummation of the Split-Off, Liberty Global no longer allocates costs to us and instead we prospectively incur certain charges under certain of the Split-Off Agreements described above.
Interest income. Amount includes interest income on C&W’s related-party loans receivable from New Cayman, which bore interest at 8.0% per annum. On April 1, 2017, subsidiaries of C&W acquired the Carve-out Entities, at which time these loans receivable were settled in exchange for the equity of the Carve-out Entities. Related-party interest income is included in other income, net, in our condensed consolidated statement of operations. For additional information regarding the Carve-out Entities, see note 4.
Tax allocations. Amount represents related-party income tax allocations recognized prior to the Split-Off. See abovefor additional information regarding the Tax Sharing Agreement with Liberty Global that became effective upon the consummation of the Split-Off.

(a)Amounts include certain commitments under the SubleaseServices Agreement and the Facilities Sharing Agreement, as further described in note 11.13.

(b)The commitments included in this table do not reflect any liabilities that are included in our March 31, 2018June 30, 2019 condensed consolidated balance sheet.
Programming commitments consist of obligations associated with certain programming, studio output and sports rights contracts that are enforceable and legally binding on us, as we have agreed to pay minimum fees without regard to (i) the actual number of subscribers to the programming services, (ii) whether we terminate service to a portion of our subscribers or dispose of a portion of our distribution systems or (iii) whether we discontinue our premium sports services. In addition, programming commitments do not include increases in future periods associated with contractual inflation or other price adjustments that are not fixed. Accordingly, the amounts reflected in the above table with respect to these contracts are significantly less than the

amounts we expect to pay in these periods under these contracts. Historically, payments to programming vendors have represented a significant portion of our operating costs, and we expect that this will continue to be the case in future periods. In this regard, our total programming and copyright costs aggregated $96$217 million and $102$197 million during the threesix months ended March 31,June 30, 2019 and 2018, and 2017, respectively.
Network and connectivity commitments relate largely toinclude (i) VTR’s domestic network service agreements with certain other telecommunications companies and (ii) VTR’s mobile virtual network operator (MVNO) agreement. The amounts reflected in the above table with respect to certain of our MVNO commitmentscommitment represent fixed minimum amounts payable under these agreementsthis agreement and, therefore, may be significantly less than the actual amounts VTR ultimately pays in these periods.
Purchase commitments include unconditional and legally-binding obligations related to (i) the purchase of customer premises and other equipment and (ii) certain service-related commitments, including call center, information technology and maintenance services.
In addition to the commitments set forth in the table above, we have commitments under (i) derivative instruments and (ii) defined benefit plans and similar agreements, pursuant to which we expect to make payments in future periods. For information regarding our derivative instruments, including the net cash paid or received in connection with these instruments during the threesix months ended March 31,June 30, 2019 and 2018, and 2017, see note 5.

Guarantees and Other Credit Enhancements
In the ordinary course of business, we may provide (i) indemnifications to our lenders, our vendors and certain other parties and (ii) performance and/or financial guarantees to local municipalities, our customers and vendors. Historically, these arrangements have not resulted in our company making any material payments and we do not believe that they will result in material payments in the future. In addition, C&W has provided indemnifications of (i) up to $300 million with respect to any potential tax-related claims related to the disposal in April 2013 of C&W’s interests in certain businesses and (ii) an unlimited amount of qualifying claims associated with the disposal of another business in May 2014. The first indemnification expires in April 2020 and the second expires in May 2020. We do not expect that either of these arrangements will require us to make material payments to the indemnified parties.

Legal and Regulatory Proceedings and Other Contingencies
Regulatory Issues. Video distribution, broadband internet, fixed-line telephony and mobile businesses are regulated in each of the countries in which we operate. The scope of regulation varies from country to country. Adverse regulatory developments could subject our businesses to a number of risks. Regulation, including conditions imposed on us by competition or other authorities as a requirement to close acquisitions or dispositions, could limit growth, revenue and the number and types of services offered and could lead to increased operating costs and property and equipment additions. In addition, regulation may restrict our operations and subject them to further competitive pressure, including pricing restrictions, interconnect and other access obligations, and restrictions or controls on content, including content provided by third parties. Failure to comply with current or future regulation could expose our businesses to various penalties.
In addition to the foregoing items, we have contingent liabilities related to matters arising in the ordinary course of business, including (i) legal proceedings, (ii) issues involving wage, property, withholding and other tax issues and (iii) disputes over interconnection, programming and copyright fees. While we generally expect that the amounts required to satisfy these contingencies will not materially differ from any estimated amounts we have accrued, no assurance can be given that the resolution of one or more of these contingencies will not result in a material impact on our results of operations, cash flows or financial position in any given period. Due, in general, to the complexity of the issues involved and, in certain cases, the lack of a clear basis for predicting outcomes, we cannot provide a meaningful range of potential losses or cash outflows that might result from any unfavorable outcomes.

(16)(18)Segment Reporting
We generally identify our reportable segments as those operating segments that represent 10% or more of our revenue, Adjusted OIBDA (as defined below) or total assets. We evaluate performance and make decisions about allocating resources to our reportable segments based on financial measures such as revenue and Adjusted OIBDA. In addition, we review non-financial measures such as subscriber growth, as appropriate.growth.

Adjusted OIBDA, a non-GAAP measure, is the primary measure used by our chief operating decision maker to evaluate segment operating performance. Adjusted OIBDA is also a key factor that is used by our internal decision makers to (i) determine how to allocate resources to segments and (ii) evaluate the effectiveness of our management for purposes of annual and other incentive compensation plans. As we use the term, “Adjusted OIBDA” is defined as operating income or loss before depreciation and amortization, share-based compensation, provisions and provision releases related to significant litigation and impairment, restructuring and other operating items. Other operating items include (i) gains and losses on the disposition of long-lived assets, (ii) third-party costs directly associated with successful and unsuccessful acquisitions and dispositions, including legal, advisory and due diligence fees, as applicable, and (iii) other acquisition-related items, such as gains and losses on the settlement of contingent consideration. Our internal decision makers believe Adjusted OIBDA is a meaningful measure because it represents a transparent view of our recurring operating performance that is unaffected by our capital structure and allows management to (i) readily view operating trends, (ii) perform analytical comparisons and benchmarking between segments and (iii) identify strategies to improve operating performance in the different countries in which we operate. As further described in note 2, effective January 1, 2018, we adopted ASU 2017-07, which resulted in the reclassification of certain pension-related credits from SG&A to non-operating income (expense) in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. As a result of the adoption, we have presented $3 million of pension-related credits in other income, net in our condensed consolidated statement of operations during each of the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017. Effective December 31, 2017, we include certain charges previously allocated to us by Liberty Global in the calculation of Adjusted OIBDA. These charges represent fees for certain services provided to us and totaled $3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. We believe changing the definition of Adjusted OIBDA to include these charges is meaningful

given they represent operating costs we will continue to incur subsequent to the Split-Off as a standalone public company. This change has been given effect for all periods presented. A reconciliation of total Adjusted OIBDA to our earnings (loss) beforeoperating income taxes is presented below.
As of March 31, 2018,June 30, 2019, our reportable segments are as follows:
C&W
VTRVTR/Cabletica
Liberty Puerto Rico
Our reportable segments derive their revenue primarily from residential and B2B services, including video, broadband internet and fixed-line telephony services and, with the exception of Liberty Puerto Rico, mobile services. We provide residential and B2B services in (i) 1824 countries, primarily in Latin America and the Caribbean, through C&W, (ii) Chile and Costa Rica, through VTRVTR/Cabletica, and (iii) Puerto Rico, through Liberty Puerto Rico. C&W also provides (i) B2B communication services in certain other countries in Latin America and the Caribbean and (ii) wholesale communication services over its sub-seasubsea and terrestrial fiber optic cable networks that connect over 40 markets in that region. Our corporate category includes our corporate operations.
Performance Measures of our Reportable Segments
The amounts presented below represent 100% of each of our reportable segment’s revenue and Adjusted OIBDA. As we have the ability to control Liberty Puerto RicoCabletica and certain subsidiaries of C&W that are not wholly-owned, we include 100% of the revenue and expenses of these entities in our condensed consolidated statements of operations despite the fact that third parties own significant interests in these entities. On October 17, 2018, we acquired the remaining 40.0% interest in Liberty Puerto Rico that we did not already own. The noncontrolling owners’ interests in the operating results of Liberty Puerto Rico and certain subsidiaries of C&W, and prior to October 17, 2018, Liberty Puerto Rico, are reflected in net earnings or loss attributable to noncontrolling interests in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Revenue by Major Category
Our revenue by major category for our reportable segments is set forth in the tables below. As further described in note 2, we adopted ASU 2014-09 effective January 1, 2018 using the cumulative effect transition method. The comparative information has not been restated and continues to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for those periods. The adoption of ASU 2014-09 did not have a material impact on our revenue by category.

Overview
General
We are an international provider of video, broadband internet, fixed-line telephonyfixed, mobile and mobilesubsea telecommunications services. We provide residential and B2B communications services in (i) 1824 countries, primarily in Latin America and the Caribbean, through C&W, (ii) Chile and Costa Rica, through VTRVTR/Cabletica, and (iii) Puerto Rico, through Liberty Puerto Rico. C&W also provides (i) B2B communication services in certain other countries in Latin America and the Caribbean and (ii) wholesale communication services over its sub-seasubsea and terrestrial fiber optic cable networks that connect over 40 markets in that region.those regions.
Operations
As described below, Hurricanes Irma and Maria caused significant damage to our operations in the Impacted Markets, as defined below, resulting in disruptions to our telecommunications services. As we are still in the process of assessing the operational impacts of the hurricanes in the Impacted Markets, we are unable to accurately estimate our homes passed and subscriber numbers as of March 31, 2018. Accordingly, the March 31, 2018 subscriber numbers for the Impacted Markets reflect subscriber amounts as of August 31, 2017 as adjusted through March 31, 2018 for (i) net voluntary disconnects and (ii) disconnects related to customers whose accounts are delinquent. The Liberty Puerto Rico homes passed reflect the August 31, 2017 levels adjusted for approximately 30,000 homes in geographic areas we may not rebuild.
At March 31, 2018,June 30, 2019, we (i) owned and operated fixed networks that passed 6,457,9007,335,900 homes and served 5,231,0005,926,500 revenue generating units (RGURGUss)), comprising 2,146,8002,529,900 broadband internet subscribers, 1,691,7001,956,500 video subscribers and 1,392,5001,440,100 fixed-line telephony subscribers and (ii) served 3,620,4003,669,600 mobile subscribers.
Hurricane Impact Update
In September 2017, Hurricanes Irma and Maria impacted a number of our markets in the Caribbean, resulting in varying degrees of damage to homes, businesses and infrastructure in these markets. The most extensive damage occurred in Puerto Rico and certain markets within our C&W reportable segment (collectively, the Impacted Markets). We continue to remain uncertain as to the extent and ultimate completion of our restoration and reconnection efforts in the Impacted Markets.
We maintain an integrated group property and business interruption insurance program covering all Impacted Markets up to a limit of $75 million per occurrence, which is generally subject to $15 million per occurrence of self-insurance. Although we are continuing to assess the alternatives under our insurance policy, we currently believe that the hurricanes will result in at least two occurrences. This policy is subject to the normal terms and conditions applicable to this type of insurance. We expect that the insurance recovery will only cover a portion of the incurred losses of each of our impacted businesses.
During the three months ended March 31, 2018, we received a net advance payment from our third-party insurance provider of $30 million associated with the initial insurance claims filed in connection with damages sustained from the hurricanes. Until such claims are legally settled, the advance is included in other accrued and current liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheet.
Liberty Puerto Rico. In Puerto Rico, the damage caused by Hurricane Maria and, to a lesser extent Hurricane Irma, was extensive and widespread. Individuals and businesses across Puerto Rico continue to deal with significant challenges caused by the severe damage to essential infrastructure, including damage to Puerto Rico’s power supply and transmission system. Similarly, Liberty Puerto Rico’s broadband communications network suffered extensive damage. As of March 31, 2018, we have been able to restore service to approximately 560,000 RGUs of our total estimated 723,100 RGUs at Liberty Puerto Rico. Additionally, we estimate that approximately $130 millionof property and equipment additions will be required to restore nearly all of Liberty Puerto Rico’s broadband communications network, of which approximately $112 million has been incurred following the hurricanesthrough March 31, 2018.
While the negative impacts from the hurricanes are declining as the network is restored and customers are reconnected, we expect that the adverse impacts of the hurricanes on Liberty Puerto Rico’s revenue and Adjusted OIBDA will continue through 2018and beyond. The severity of the hurricanes’ impact on Liberty Puerto Rico’s future revenue and Adjusted OIBDA will be influenced in part by the following uncertainties:
the length of time that it will take to restore Puerto Rico’s power and transmission system and to fully restore our network;
the number of people that will choose to leave Puerto Rico for an extended period or permanently; and

the ability of the Puerto Rico and U.S. governments to effectively oversee the recovery process in Puerto Rico.
In terms of liquidity for Liberty Puerto Rico, the cash provided by its operations was a significant source of pre-hurricane liquidity. As a result of the hurricane impacts, we do not expect Liberty Puerto Rico will generate positive cash from operations, inclusive of capital expenditures, until at least the latter half of 2018. In this regard, Liberty Puerto Rico’s liquidity needs are being funded by the up to $60 million LCPR Equity Commitment from Liberty Latin America and Searchlight, $45 million of which has been provided during 2018, including $20 million subsequent to March 31, 2018, and an insurance advance of $35 million ($30 million through a third-party insurance provider and the remainder through a captive insurance subsidiary). Future liquidity sources are expected to include further insurance proceeds, the remaining portion of the LCPR Equity Commitment, as applicable, through December 31, 2018 of up to $15 million and, cash from operations. For additional information regarding the LCPR Equity Commitment, see Material Changes in Financial Condition below. While there are still uncertainties with respect to Liberty Puerto Rico’s recovery from the hurricanes, and no assurance can be given as to the ultimate amount or timing of liquidity to be received from cash from operations or insurance proceeds, we expect these existing and potential sources of liquidity will be sufficient to satisfy Liberty Puerto Rico’s liquidity requirements over the next twelve months.
C&W. C&W offers services over fixed and mobile networks, and portions of these networks in C&W’s Impacted Markets were significantly damaged as a result of the hurricanes. The most notable markets that continue to be impacted are the British Virgin Islands and Dominica. Services to most of our fixed-line customers in these markets have not yet been restored. While mobile services have been largely restored in C&W’s Impacted Markets, we are still in the process of completing the restoration of our mobile network infrastructure. In addition to network damage, these markets are also dealing with extensive damage to homes, businesses and essential infrastructure.
We currently estimate that approximately $50 million of property and equipment additions will be required to restorenearly all of the damaged networks in C&W’s Impacted Markets, of which approximately $21 millionhas been incurred following the hurricanesthrough March 31, 2018. The negative impacts of the hurricanes are declining as the networks are restored and customers are reconnected, and we do not expect there to be a material impact from hurricanes on C&W’s revenue and Adjusted OIBDA during 2018.
Material Changes in Results of Operations
In the following discussion, we quantify the estimated impact of acquisitions (the Acquisition Impact) on our operating results. The Acquisition Impact represents our estimate of the difference between the operating results of the periods under comparison that is attributable to an acquisition. Accordingly, in the following discussion, (i) organic increaseschanges exclude the operating results of an acquired entity during the first 12 months following the date of acquisition, and (ii) the calculation of our organic change percentages exclude the Acquisition Impact of such entity.
Changes in foreign currency exchange rates may have a significant impact on our operating results, as VTR, Cabletica and certain entities within C&W have functional currencies other than the U.S. dollar. Our primary exposure to foreign currency translation effects (FX) risk during 2018the three months ended June 30, 2019 was to the Chilean peso as 29.0%24.6% of our revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2018period was derived from VTR, whose functional currency is the Chilean peso. In addition, our operating results are impacted by changes in the exchange rates for other local currencies inLatin America and the Caribbean.VTR. The impacts to the various components of our results of operations that are attributable to changes in FX are highlighted below. For information concerning our foreign currency risks and applicable foreign currency exchange rates, see Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk—Foreign Currency Exchange Rates below.
The amounts presented and discussed below represent 100% of the revenue and Adjusted OIBDAexpenses of each reportable segment and our corporate operations, as further discussed in note 16 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.operations. As we have the ability to control Liberty Puerto RicoCabletica and certain subsidiaries of C&W that are not wholly-owned, we include 100% of the revenue and expenses of these entities in our condensed consolidated statements of operations despite the fact that third parties own significant interests in these entities. In October 2018, we acquired the remaining 40.0% interest in Liberty Puerto Rico that we did not already own. The noncontrolling owners’ interests in the operating results of Liberty Puerto Rico and certain subsidiaries of C&W and, prior to October 2018, Liberty Puerto Rico, are reflected in net earnings or loss attributable to noncontrolling interests in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.
PriorEffective October 1, 2018, following the Cabletica Acquisition, the VTR segment became the VTR/Cabletica segment. In the discussion and analysis of the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 as compared the corresponding periods in 2018, we refer to the Split-Off, Liberty Global allocated a portionsegment as VTR/Cabletica. For additional information regarding the composition of their corporate function costs to us, based primarily on the estimated percentage of time spent by corporate personnel providing services to us. Such costs were not intended to reflect the costs of operating as a standalone public company. Accordingly, our corporate-related SG&A costs have increased significantly during 2018, as compared with 2017, as a result of operating as a standalone company and incurring certain public company-related costs. These costs include executive employee and board of directors expenses; insurance; costs related to the compliance with federal securities laws (including compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002); and costs for financial reporting, tax administration, human resources functions and centralization of certain other corporate functions. These increases in costs are inclusive of costs

that Liberty Global charges us in connection with certain of the Split-Off Agreements, as further described insegments, see note 1118 to our condensed consolidated financial statements. For additional information regarding the Cabletica Acquisition, see note 4 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.
On April 1, 2019, certain B2B operations in Puerto Rico were transferred from our C&W segment to our Liberty Puerto Rico segment. This did not have a significant impact on the financial results of our C&W or Liberty Puerto Rico segments.
We are subject to inflationary pressures with respect to certain costs and foreign currency exchange risk with respect to costs and expenses that are denominated in currencies other than the respective functional currencies of our reportable segments. Any cost increases that we are not able to pass on to our subscribers would result in increased pressure on our operating margins.

Revenue

All of our reportable segments derive their revenue primarily from (i) residential broadband communicationsfixed services, including video, broadband internet and fixed-line telephony, services, (ii) with the exception of Liberty Puerto Rico, residential mobile services, and (iii) B2B communications services. For detailed information regarding the composition of our reportable segments, see note 16 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.C&W also provides wholesale communication services over its subsea and terrestrial fiber optic cable networks.

While not specifically discussed in the below explanations of the changes in the revenue, of our reportable segments, we are experiencing significant competition in all of our markets. This competition has an adverse impact on our ability to increase or maintain our RGUs and/or average monthly subscription revenue per average fixed RGU or mobile subscriber, as applicable, (ARPU).

Variances in the subscription revenue that we receive from our customers are a function of (i) changes in the number of RGUs or mobile subscribers during the period and (ii) changes in ARPU. Changes in ARPU can be attributable to (i) changes in prices, (ii) changes in bundling or promotional discounts, (iii) changes in the tier of services selected, (iv) variances in subscriber usage patterns, and (v) the overall mix of fixed and mobile products within a segment during the period. In the following discussion, we discuss ARPU changes in terms of the net impact of the above factors on the ARPU that is derived from our video, broadband internet, fixed-line telephony and mobile products. AtHurricanes Maria and Irma in 2017 significantly impacted variances in revenue at Liberty Puerto Rico variances in revenue duringfor the three months ended March 31, 2018,comparative period, as compared to the corresponding period in 2017, were significantly impacted by Hurricanes Maria and Irma.further discussed below.

(a)The increase isincreases are primarily attributable to higher broadband internet and video RGUs.
(b)
The decrease isdecreases are primarily attributabledue to the net effect of(i) lower ARPU from fixed-line telephony and broadband internetvideo services and (ii) higher ARPU from videobroadband internet services.


(c)The decrease isdecreases are primarily attributable to lower advertisinginterconnect revenue, mainly due to lower (i) mobile termination rates on our fixed network in various C&W markets and late fees.(ii) volumes in Panama.

(d)
The decrease in mobile subscription revenue isdecreases are primarily attributable to the net effect of (i) lower revenueARPU in (a)Panama, other C&W markets, and the Bahamas,associated with a decrease in the average number of subscribers and lower ARPU, primarily driven by the commercial launch of mobile services by a competitor during the fourth quarter of 2016, and (b) Panama due primarily to a decrease in the average number of subscribers and (ii) higher revenuelower average subscribers in Jamaica mostly due to higher ARPU. The increase in mobile non-subscription revenue is primarily attributable to an increase in revenue from handset sales.
Panama, the Bahamas and other C&W markets.
(e)The increasedecrease during the six-month comparison is primarily attributable to (i) project-related revenuedecreased volumes of handset sales, primarily in managed services, driven by increases in Jamaica that were partially offset by decreases in Panamaour Cayman Islands operations, the Bahamas and (ii) individually insignificant changes across the markets ofother C&W.&W markets.

(f)
The increase isincreases are primarily due to the net effect of (i) higher managed services revenue, largely driven by Panama, Jamaica and Networks & LatAm, and (ii) increased capacity sales oninterconnect revenue, primarily associated withhigher volumes in Jamaica. In addition, the three and six-month comparisons also include an increase(decrease) of $1 million and ($4 million), respectively, associated with a change in the timing of revenue for directory services recognized within the year. These amounts also include decreases related to the transfer of certain B2B operations in Puerto Rico from our C&W’s sub-sea network&W segment to new and existing customers.our Liberty Puerto Rico segment.

Income tax expense
Income tax expense was $30 million and $42 million during the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and 2017,$34 million and $58 million during the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The amount for each period includes $3 million of interest and dividend income and $3 million in pension-related credits following the adoption of ASU 2017-07.

Income tax expense
We recognizedloss before income taxes differs from the expected income tax expense of $17 millionnil (based on the Bermuda statutory income tax rate of 0%), primarily due to the detrimental effects of international rate differences, increases in valuation allowances, changes in uncertain tax positions, and $23 million duringnegative effects of permanent items such as non-deductible expenses. These negative impacts to our effective tax rate were partially offset by the threebeneficial effects of permanent items, such as non-taxable income. Additionally for the six months ended March 31, 2018June 30, 2019, our effective tax rate reflects the beneficial effects of a change in the Barbados and 2017, respectively.

For the three and six months ended March 31,June 30, 2018, the income tax expense attributable to our loss before income taxes differs from the amount computed usingexpected income taxexpense of nil (based on the Bermuda statutory income tax rate of 0%), primarily due to the detrimental effects of international rate differences, increases in the valuation allowance,allowances, and negative effects of non-deductible expenses. These negative impacts to our effective tax rate were partially offset by the beneficial effects of non-taxable income and price level restatements. For the three months ended March 31, 2017, the income tax expense attributable to our earnings before income taxes differs from the amount computed using the statutory tax rate primarily due to the detrimental effects of international rate differences, non-deductible expenses and changes in valuation allowances, partially offset by the beneficial effects of enacteduncertain tax lawpositions and rate changes.non-taxable income.

Gains or losses associated with (i) changes in the fair values of derivative instruments and (ii) movements in foreign currency exchange rates are subject to a high degree of volatility and, as such, any gains from these sources do not represent a reliable source of income. In the absence of significant gains in the future from these sources or from other non-operating items, our ability to achieve earnings is largely dependent on our ability to increase our aggregate Adjusted OIBDA to a level that more than offsets the aggregate amount of our (i) share-based compensation expense, (ii) depreciation and amortization, (iii) impairment, restructuring and other operating items, (iv) interest expense, (v) other non-operating expenses and (vi) income tax expenses.
Due largely to the fact that we seek to maintain our debt at levels that provide for attractive equity returns, as discussed under Material Changes in Financial Condition—Capitalization below, we expect that we will continue to report significant levels of interest expense for the foreseeable future. For information concerning our expectations with respect to trends that may affect certain aspects of our operating results in future periods, see the discussion under Overview above.

Our borrowing groups, which typically generate cash from operating activities, accounted forheld a significant portion of our consolidated cash and cash equivalents at March 31, 2018.June 30, 2019. Our ability to access the liquidity of these and other subsidiaries may be limited by tax and legal considerations, the presence of noncontrolling interests, foreign currency exchange restrictions with respect to certain C&W subsidiaries and other factors.

(d)C&W’s subsidiaries hold the majority of C&W’s consolidated cash. Due to the restrictions as noted above, a significant portion of the cash held by C&W subsidiaries is not considered to be an immediate source of corporate liquidity for C&W.

Liquidity of Liberty Latin America and its unrestricted subsidiaries
Our current sources of corporate liquidity include (i) cash and cash equivalents held by Liberty Latin America and, subject to certain tax and legal considerations, Liberty Latin America’s unrestricted subsidiaries and (ii) interest and dividend income received on our and, subject to certain tax and legal considerations, our unrestricted subsidiaries’ cash and cash equivalents and investments. From time to time, Liberty Latin America and its unrestricted subsidiaries may also receive (i) proceeds in the form of distributions or loan repayments from Liberty Latin America’s borrowing groups or affiliates, upon (a) the completion of recapitalizations, refinancings, asset sales or similar transactions by these entities or (b) the accumulation of excess cash from operations or other means, (ii) proceeds upon the disposition of investments and other assets of Liberty Latin America and its unrestricted subsidiaries and (iii) proceeds in connection with the incurrence of debt by Liberty Latin America or its unrestricted subsidiaries or the issuance of equity securities by Liberty Latin America. No assurance can be given that any external funding would be available to Liberty Latin America or its unrestricted subsidiaries on favorable terms, or at all. As noted above, various factors may limit our ability to access the cash of our borrowing groups.
Our corporate liquidity requirements include (i) corporate general and administrative expenses and (ii) other liquidity needs that may arise from time to time. In addition, Liberty Latin America and its unrestricted subsidiaries may require cash in connection with (i) the repayment of third-party and intercompany debt, (ii) the satisfaction of contingent liabilities, (iii) acquisitions and other investment opportunities, (iv) the repurchase of debt securities, (v) tax payments or (vi) any funding requirements of our consolidated subsidiaries, including our commitment to fund our portion of any potential liquidity shortfalls of Liberty Puerto Rico through December 31, 2018, as further described below.subsidiaries.
Liquidity of borrowing groups
The cash and cash equivalents of our borrowing groups are detailed in the table above. In addition to cash and cash equivalents, the primary sources of liquidity of our borrowing groups are cash provided by operations and borrowing availability under their respective debt instruments and, with respect to Liberty Puerto Rico, the remaining portion of the LCPR Equity Commitment (as described below) and insurance proceeds.instruments. For the details of the borrowing availability of such subsidiaries at March 31, 2018,June 30, 2019, see note 89 to our condensed consolidated financial statements. The aforementioned sources of liquidity may be supplemented in certain cases by contributions and/or loans from Liberty Latin America and its unrestricted subsidiaries. The liquidity of our borrowing groups generally is used to fund property and equipment additions, debt service requirements and income tax payments. From time to time, our borrowing groups may also require liquidity in connection with (i) acquisitions and other investment opportunities, (ii) loans to Liberty Latin America, (iii) capital distributions to Liberty Latin America and other equity owners or (iv) the satisfaction of contingent liabilities. No assurance can be given that any external funding would be available to our borrowing groups on

favorable terms, or at all. For information regarding our borrowing groups’ commitments and contingencies, see note 1517 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.
On December 20, 2017, in connection with challenging circumstances that Liberty Puerto Rico continues to experience as a result of the damage caused by Hurricanes Irma and Maria, the LPR Credit Agreements were amended to (i) provide Liberty Puerto Rico with relief from complying with leverage covenants through December 31, 2018, (ii) increase the consolidated first lien net leverage ratio covenant from 4.5:1 to 5.0:1 beginning with the March 31, 2019 quarterly test date, (iii) restrict Liberty Puerto Rico’s ability to make certain types of payments to its shareholders through December 31, 2018 and (iv) include an equity commitment of up to $60 million from Liberty Puerto Rico’s shareholders through December 31, 2018 to fund any potential liquidity shortfalls. Based on our 60% ownership in Liberty Puerto Rico, we are obligated for up to $36 million of the LCPR Equity Commitment. During the first quarter of 2018, a $25 million capital contribution was provided to Liberty Puerto Rico consisting of $15 million from us and $10 million from Searchlight. Subsequent to March 31, 2018, an additional $20 million was contributed to Liberty Puerto Rico, consisting of $12 million from us and $8 million from Searchlight. Accordingly, Liberty Puerto Rico has up to an additional $15 million available under the LCPR Equity Commitment, of which we are obligated for up to $9 million.
Hurricanes Irma and Maria are expected to continue to have an adverse impact on Liberty Puerto Rico’s cash flows and liquidity. For additional information, see the discussion under Overview above.
For additional information regarding our cash flows, see the discussion under Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows below.

Capitalization
We seek to maintain our debt at levels that provide for attractive equity returns without assuming undue risk. In this regard, we generally seek to cause our operating subsidiaries to maintain their debt at levels that result in a debt balance (measured using subsidiary debt figures at swapped foreign currency exchange rates, consistent with the covenant calculation requirements of our subsidiary debt agreements) that is typically between four and five times our consolidated Adjusted OIBDA, although the timing of our acquisitions and financing transactions and the interplay of foreign currency average and spot rates may impact this ratio. The ratio of our March 31, 2018June 30, 2019 consolidated debt (total principal amount of debt and finance lease obligations outstanding, net of projected derivative principal-related cash payments (receipts)) to our annualized consolidated Adjusted OIBDA for the quarter ended March 31, 2018June 30, 2019 was 4.8x. In addition, the ratio of our March 31, 2018June 30, 2019 consolidated net debt (debt as defined above, less cash and cash equivalents) to our annualized consolidated Adjusted OIBDA for the quarter ended March 31, 2018June 30, 2019 was 4.5x. Beginning in4.1x. These ratios, which were calculated on a latest two quarters annualized basis, include the fourth quarterimpact of 2017, these ratios increased due0.3x and nil, respectively, related to the adverse impacts of the hurricanes on our Adjusted OIBDA. However, assuming our debt levels remain relatively consistent, we expect these ratios to decrease in future periods as we continue to recover from the adverse impacts of the hurricanes.Convertible Notes.
When it is cost effective, we generally seek to match the denomination of the borrowings of our subsidiaries with the functional currency of the operations that support the respective borrowings. As further discussed under Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk and in note 5 to our condensed consolidated financial statements, we also use derivative instruments to mitigate foreign currency and interest rate risks associated with our debt instruments.
Our ability to service or refinance our debt and to maintain compliance with the leverage covenants in the credit agreements and indentures of our borrowing groups is dependent primarily on our ability to maintain or increase covenant EBITDA of our operating subsidiaries, as specified by our subsidiaries’ debt agreements (Covenant EBITDA), and to achieve adequate returns on our property and equipment additions and acquisitions. In addition, our ability to obtain additional debt financing is limited by incurrence-based leverage covenants contained in the various debt instruments of our borrowing groups. For example, if the Covenant EBITDA of C&W were to decline, our ability to obtain additional debt could be limited. No assurance can be given that we would have sufficient sources of liquidity, or that any external funding would be available on favorable terms, or at all, to fund any such required repayment. At March 31, 2018,June 30, 2019, each of our borrowing groups was in compliance with its debt covenants. We do not anticipate any instances of non-compliance with respect to the debt covenants of our borrowing groups that would have a material adverse impact on our liquidity during the next 12 months.
At March 31, 2018,June 30, 2019, the outstanding principal amount of our debt, together with our capitalfinance lease obligations, aggregated $6,440$7,174 million, including $212$172 million that is classified as current in our condensed consolidated balance sheet and $5,803$6,865 million that is not due until 2022 or thereafter. AllAt June 30, 2019, $6,770 million of our debt and capitalfinance lease obligations have been borrowed or incurred by our subsidiaries at March 31, 2018.subsidiaries. For additional information concerning our debt, and capital lease obligations, including our debt maturities and certain refinancing transactions subsequent to June 30, 2019, see note 89 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.
Notwithstanding our negative working capital position at March 31, 2018, wWe believe that we have sufficient resources to repay or refinance the current portion of our debt and capitalfinance lease obligations and to fund our foreseeable liquidity requirements during the next 12 months. However, as our debt maturities grow in later years, we anticipate that we will seek to refinance or otherwise extend our debt maturities. No assurance can be given that we will be able to complete refinancing transactions or otherwise extend our debt maturities. In this regard, it is difficult to predict how political and economic conditions, sovereign debt concerns or any adverse regulatory developments will impact the credit and equity markets we access and our future financial position. Our ability to access debt financing on favorable terms, or at all, could be adversely impacted by (i) the financial failure of any of our counterparties, which could (a) reduce amounts available under committed credit facilities and (b) adversely impact our ability to access cash deposited with any failed financial institution, and (ii) tightening of the credit markets and (iii) in the case of Liberty Puerto Rico, by the adverse impacts of the hurricanes on its operations. For additional information regarding the impacts of the hurricanes, see the related discussion under Overview above.markets. In addition, any weakness in the equity markets could make it less attractive to use our shares to satisfy contingent or other obligations, and sustained or increased competition, particularly in combination with adverse economic or regulatory developments, could have an unfavorable impact on our cash flows and liquidity.

Operating Activities. The increase in net cash provided by our operating activities is primarily attributable to the net effect of(i) an increase from our Adjusted OIBDA and related working capital items, inclusiveincluding changes resulting from insurance receipts as discussed below, (ii) an increase in cash related to derivative instruments, as we received $17 million during the 2019 period and made net payments of a$17 million during the 2018 period, (iii) increased interest payments and (iv) lower payments of taxes. During the first half of 2019, $33 million of the cash received associated with the final insurance settlement for the Hurricanes was reflected as an operating cash inflow. During the first half of 2018, we received $30 million of net advance payment receivedpayments from our third-party insurance provider of $30 million associated with the initialthen outstanding insurance settlement claims filed in connection with damages sustainedresulting from the hurricanes, and (ii) lower interest payments.Hurricanes.
Investing Activities. The increasedecrease in net cash used by our investing activities is primarily attributable to higher$160 million of cash used for the UTS Acquisition in March 2019, which was more than offset by a decrease in cash used capital expenditures, as further discussed below.below, and $34 million of cash received during the first quarter of 2019 related to the recovery on damaged or destroyed property and equipment resulting from hurricanes Maria, Irma and Matthew. For additional information regarding the settlement of our insurance claims associated with these hurricanes, see note 7 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.
The capital expenditures that we report in our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows do not include amounts that are financed under capital-related vendor financing or capitalfinance lease arrangements. Instead, these amounts are reflected as non-cash additions to our property and equipment when the underlying assets are delivered and as repayments of debt when the principal is repaid. In this discussion, we refer to (i) our capital expenditures, as reported in our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows, which exclude amounts financed under capital-related vendor financing or capital lease arrangements, and (ii) our total property and equipment additions, which include our capital expenditures on an accrual basis and amounts financed under capital-related vendor financing or capitalfinance lease arrangements. For further details regarding our property and equipment additions, see note 1618 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.
A reconciliation of our property and equipment additions to our capital expenditures, as reported in our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows, is set forth below:

Financing Activities. During the threesix months ended March 31, 2018,June 30, 2019, we used $12received $320 million in net cash from financing activities, primarily relatingdue to $19$395 million of net borrowings of debt, which was slightly offset by $46 million of cash used related to the purchase of the Capped Calls and $25 million related to payments of financing costs and debt premiums. The net borrowings of debt primarily relate to the issuance of the Convertible Notes, as further described in note 9 to our condensed consolidated financial statements. During the six months ended June 30, 2018, we received $223 million in net cash from financing activities, due in part to $253 million in net borrowings of debt, primarily at VTR, and $18 million in capital contributions from funds affiliated with Searchlight Capital Partners, L.P.. These cash inflows were partially offset by $20 million in distributions to C&W Panama, a noncontrolling interest owner, and $20 million of cash used in connection with the C&W Jamaica NCI Acquisition, which was partially offset by a $10 million capital contribution from Searchlight indirectly to Liberty Puerto Rico for purposes of funding liquidity shortfalls following the impact of the hurricanes. For additional information see note 10 to our condensed consolidated financial statements. During the three months ended March 31, 2017, we received $35 million in net cash from financing activities, which includes $63 million in net borrowings of debt, partially offset by distributions to Liberty Global and noncontrolling interest owners of $19 million and $15 million, respectively.Acquisition.
Adjusted Free Cash Flow
We define adjusted free cash flow, a non-GAAP measure, as net cash provided by our operating activities, plus (i) cash payments for third-party costs directly associated with successful and unsuccessful acquisitions and dispositions, and (ii) expenses financed by an intermediary and (iii) insurance recoveries related to damaged and destroyed property and equipment, less (a) capital expenditures, (b) distributions to noncontrolling interest owners, (c) principal payments on amounts financed by vendors and intermediaries and (d) principal payments on capitalfinance leases. We changed the way we define adjusted free cash flow effective December 31, 2017 to deduct distributions to noncontrolling interest owners. This change was given effect for all periods presented. Additionally, on January 1, 2018, we retroactively adopted ASU 2016-18, which resulted in an immaterial decrease in cash from operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2017. For additional information regarding the impact of adopting ASU 2016-18, see note 2 to our condensed consolidated financial statements. We believe that our presentation of adjusted free cash flow provides useful information to our investors because this measure can be used to gauge our ability to service debt and fund new investment opportunities. Adjusted free cash flow should not be understood to represent our ability to fund discretionary amounts, as we have various mandatory and contractual obligations, including debt repayments, which are not deducted to arrive at this amount. Investors should view adjusted free cash flow as a supplement to, and not a substitute for, U.S. GAAP measures of liquidity included in our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
In the ordinary course of business, we may provide (i) indemnifications to our lenders, our vendors and certain other parties and (ii) performance and/or financial guarantees to local municipalities, our customers and vendors. Historically, these arrangements have not resulted in our company making any material payments and we do not believe that they will result in material payments in the future.

Item 3.QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The information in this section should be read in conjunction with the more complete discussion that appears under Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk in our 20172018 Form 10-K. The following discussion updates selected numerical information to March 31, 2018.June 30, 2019.
We are exposed to market risk in the normal course of our business operations due to our investments in various countries and ongoing investing and financing activities. Market risk refers to the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates and stock prices. The risk of loss can be assessed from the perspective of adverse changes in fair values, cash flows and future earnings. As further described below, we have established policies, procedures and processes governing our management of market risks and the use of derivative instruments to manage our exposure to such risks.
Cash and Investments
We invest our cash in highly liquid instruments that meet high credit quality standards. We are exposed to exchange rate risk to the extent that the denominations of our cash and cash equivalent balances, revolving lines of credit and other short-term sources of liquidity do not correspond to the denominations of Liberty Latin America’s short-term liquidity requirements. In order to mitigate this risk, we actively manage the denominations of our cash balances in consideration of Liberty Latin America’s forecasted liquidity requirements. At March 31, 2018, a significant proportionJune 30, 2019, $120 million or 12.6% of our cash balance was denominated in U.S. dollars or denominated in a currency that is indexed to the U.S. dollar.Chilean pesos.
Foreign Currency Exchange Rates
The relationship between (i) the British pound sterling, the Chilean peso and the Jamaican dollar and (ii) the U.S. dollar, which is our reporting currency, is shown below, per one U.S. dollar:

Interest Rate Risks
In general, we seek to enter into derivative instruments to protect against increases in the interest rates on our variable-rate debt. Accordingly, we have entered into various derivative transactions to reduce exposure to increases in interest rates. We use interest rate derivative contracts to exchange, at specified intervals, the difference between fixed and variable interest rates calculated by reference to an agreed-upon notional principal amount. We also use interest rate cap agreements that lock in a maximum interest rate if variable rates rise, but also allow our company to benefit from declines in market rates. At March 31, 2018,June 30, 2019, we effectively paid a fixed rate of interest rate on 97% of our total debt.debt, which includes the impact of our interest rate cap agreements. The final maturity dates of our various portfolios of interest rate derivative instruments generally fall short of the respective maturities of the underlying variable-rate debt. In this regard, we use judgment to determine the appropriate maturity dates of our portfolios of interest rate derivative instruments, taking into account the relative costs and benefits of different maturity profiles in light of current and expected future market conditions, liquidity issues and other factors. For additional information concerning the impacts of these interest rate derivative instruments, see note 5 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.


Sensitivity Information
Information concerning the sensitivity of the fair value of certain of our more significant derivative instruments to changes in market conditions is set forth below. The potential changes in fair value set forth below do not include any amounts associated with the remeasurement of the derivative asset or liability into the applicable functional currency. For additional information, see notes 5 and 6 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Item 4.CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act), that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our PrinciplePrincipal Executive Officer and our Principal Financial Officer (the Executives), as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, the Executives recognize that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and objectives.
As disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for our fiscal year ended December 31, 2018, we identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. The material weaknesses will not be considered remediated until the applicable new or enhanced controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through testing, that these controls are operating effectively. Our management, with the participation of the Executives, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2018. Based on that evaluation,June 30, 2019. As remediation has not yet been completed, the Executives concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective at the reasonable assurance levelcontinued to be ineffective as of MarchJune 30, 2019.
Notwithstanding such material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting, our management concluded that our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q present fairly, in all material respects, the company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows as of the dates, and for the periods presented, in conformity with U.S. GAAP.
Management’s Remediation Plans

Management is continuing to implement the remediation plans as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for our fiscal year ended December 31, 2018. We believe that these actions and the improvements we expect to achieve, when fully implemented, will strengthen our internal control over financial reporting and remediate the material weaknesses identified.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by Rules 13a-15(d) and 15d-15(d) of the Exchange Act that occurred during the fiscal quarter covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
