Organization Consolidation And Presentation Of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Description of Business and Accounting Policies | 1. Description of Business and Accounting Policies Description of Business — Cincinnati Bell Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries ("Cincinnati Bell", "we", "our", "us" or the "Company") provide diversified telecommunications and technology services. The Company generates a large portion of its revenue by serving customers in Cincinnati, Ohio, Dayton, Ohio and the islands of Hawaii. An economic downturn or natural disaster occurring in these, or a portion of these, limited operating territories could have a disproportionate effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows compared to similar companies of a national scope and similar companies operating in different geographic areas. The Company had receivables with one customer, Verizon Communications Inc., which made up 18% of the outstanding accounts receivable balance at December 31, 2018. At June 30, 2019, no individual customer exceeded 10% of the outstanding accounts receivable balance. Revenue derived from foreign operations was approximately 5% of consolidated revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. Revenue derived from foreign operations was approximately 6% of consolidated revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018. Basis of Presentation — The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations, other comprehensive income, financial position and cash flows for each period presented. The adjustments referred to above are of a normal and recurring nature. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to SEC rules and regulations for interim reporting. The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2018 was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year or any other interim period. Use of Estimates — Preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported. Actual results could differ from those estimates. In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to various regulatory and tax proceedings, lawsuits, claims and other matters. The Company believes adequate provision has been made for all such asserted and unasserted claims in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Such matters are subject to many uncertainties and outcomes that are not predictable with assurance. Business Combinations — In accounting for business combinations, we apply the accounting requirements of Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 805, “Business Combinations,” which requires the recording of net assets of acquired businesses at fair value. In developing fair value estimates for acquired assets and assumed liabilities, management analyzes a variety of factors including market data, estimated future cash flows of the acquired operations, industry growth rates, current replacement cost for fixed assets, and market rate assumptions for contractual obligations. Such a valuation requires management to make significant estimates and assumptions, particularly with respect to the intangible assets. The Company reports in its consolidated financial statements provisional amounts for the items for which accounting is incomplete. Goodwill is adjusted for any changes to provisional amounts made within the measurement period. See Note 4 for disclosures related to mergers and acquisitions. Leases - The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception based on the facts and circumstances present. In lease transactions where the Company acts as the lessor, the lease component is accounted for in accordance with ASC 842, and the non-lease component is accounted for in accordance with ASC 606. Although separation of lease and non-lease components is required, certain practical expedients are available that release the Company from this requirement. Adoption of the practical expedient allows the Company to account for each lease component and the related non-lease component together as a single component provided that the timing and patterns of revenue recognition for the components are the same and the combined, single unit of account would be classified as an operating lease. The Company's operating leases for certain services that include Customer Premise Equipment, including handsets and set-top boxes, have lease and non-lease components. In these arrangements, management has concluded that the non-lease components are the predominant characteristic, and, as a result, the Company has elected to account for these arrangements as one single non-lease component recorded as "Revenue" on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations in accordance with ASC 606. Right-of-use assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term, and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease right-of-use assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Certain adjustments to the right-of-use asset may be required for items such as initial direct costs paid or incentives received. The Company's lease terms include options to extend, terminate or buyout the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Leases that have contract prices based on variable factors, such as power usage, are recognized as variable lease expense in the period in which the obligation for those payments are incurred. Lease expense for variable lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Income and Operating Taxes Income taxes — In accordance with ASC 740-270, the Company’s income tax provision for interim periods is determined through the use of an estimated annual effective tax rate applied to year-to-date ordinary income/loss plus or minus the tax effects of discrete items. The Company expects its annual effective tax rate benefit to be lower than statutory rates as a result of permanent items such as meals and entertainment expenses that are not fully deductible for tax. The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 limits the Company’s interest deduction to 30% of tax earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization for years beginning before January 1, 2022. Thereafter, the interest deduction is limited to 30% of tax earnings before interest and taxes. Any disallowed interest in a year becomes a separate deferred tax asset with an indefinite carryforward period that can be utilized by the Company in a future tax year by an amount equal to its interest limitation in excess of its interest expense for that year. Operating taxes — The Company elected to record certain operating taxes such as property, sales, use, and gross receipts taxes including telecommunications surcharges as expenses, primarily within cost of services and products. These taxes are not included in income tax expense because the amounts to be paid are not dependent on our level of income. Liabilities for audit exposures are established based on management's assessment of the probability of payment. The provision for such liabilities is recognized as either property, plant and equipment, operating tax expense, or depreciation expense depending on the nature of the audit exposure. Upon resolution of an audit, any remaining liability not paid is released against the account in which it was originally recorded. Certain telecommunication taxes and surcharges that are collected from customers are also recorded as revenue; however, in accordance with ASC 606, revenue associated with these charges is excluded from the transaction price. Derivative Financial Instruments — The Company accounts for derivative financial instruments by recognizing derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value and recognizing the resulting gains or losses as adjustments to the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations or "Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss." The Company does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. For derivative instruments that hedge the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges, the gain or loss on the derivative instrument is reported as a component of "Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss" in stockholder's equity and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. To receive hedge accounting treatment, cash flow hedges must be highly effective in offsetting changes to expected future cash flows on hedged transactions. Derivatives that do not qualify as hedges are adjusted to fair value through earnings in the current period. Recently Issued Accounting Standards In August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2018-15, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software, which aligns the accounting for implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements in ASC 350-40 for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software. The amendments in this ASU also require the entity to present the expense related to the capitalized implementation costs in the same line item in the statement of income as the fees associated with the hosting element of the arrangement and classify payments for capitalized implementation costs in the statement of cash flows in the same manner as payments made for fees associated with the hosting element. The amendments in this ASU are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The amendments should be applied either retrospectively or prospectively to all implementation costs incurred after the date of adoption. Early adoption is permitted in any interim period after issuance of the update. The Company early adopted this standard prospectively effective January 1, 2019. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases, which represents a wholesale change to lease accounting. Since that date, the FASB has issued additional ASUs clarifying certain aspects of ASU 2016-02 but did not change the core principal. The standard introduces a lessee model that brings most leases onto the balance sheet, as well as aligns certain underlying principles of the new lessor model with those in ASC 606. The ASU is effective for public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company adopted the standard and all subsequent amendments effective January 1, 2019, using the modified retrospective transition method, which did not require the Company to adjust comparative periods. The Company elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance, which allowed the Company to carryforward its historical assessments of: (1) whether contracts are or contain leases, (2) lease classification and (3) initial direct costs. In addition to the package of practical expedients, the Company elected the practical expedients of using hindsight in determining the lease term and in assessing impairment of the entity’s right-of-use assets as well as not to assess whether existing or expired land easements that were not previously accounted for as leases under ASC 840 are or contain a lease under ASC 842. Upon adoption of this standard, the Company recognized operating lease right-of-use assets of $38.3 million and operating lease liabilities of $46.2 million in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company elected the practical expedient outlined in ASU 2018-11 allowing entities to initially apply the new lease standard at the adoption date and recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. The adoption of ASU 2016-02 had no impact to accumulated deficit. The Company implemented internal controls and procured a third-party lease accounting software solution to facilitate the ongoing accounting and financial reporting requirements of the ASU. The standard did not have a material impact on our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. The most significant impact was the recognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for operating leases, while our accounting for finance leases remained substantially unchanged. See Note 7 for required disclosures as a result of adopting ASC 842. Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB or other standard-setting bodies that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements upon adoption. |

Earnings Per Share [Abstract] | |
Earnings Per Common Share | 2. Earnings Per Common Share Basic earnings per common share (“EPS”) is based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that would occur upon issuance of common shares for awards under stock-based compensation plans or conversion of preferred stock, but only to the extent that they are considered dilutive. The following table shows the computation of basic and diluted EPS: Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, (in millions, except per share amounts) 2019 2018 2019 2018 Numerator: Net loss $ (5.5 ) $ (13.8 ) $ (32.4 ) $ (22.1 ) Preferred stock dividends 2.6 2.6 5.2 5.2 Net loss applicable to common shareowners - basic and diluted $ (8.1 ) $ (16.4 ) $ (37.6 ) $ (27.3 ) Denominator: Weighted average common shares outstanding - basic 50.4 42.4 50.3 42.4 Stock-based compensation arrangements — — — — Weighted average common shares outstanding - diluted $ 50.4 $ 42.4 $ 50.3 $ 42.4 Basic and diluted net loss per common share $ (0.16 ) $ (0.39 ) $ (0.75 ) $ (0.64 ) For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company had a net loss available to common shareholders and, as a result, all common stock equivalents were excluded from the computation of diluted EPS as their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive. For all periods presented, preferred stock convertible into 0.9 million common shares was excluded as it was anti-dilutive. |

Revenue From Contract With Customer [Abstract] | |
Revenue | 3. Revenue The Entertainment and Communications segment provides products and services to both residential and commercial customers that can be categorized as either Fioptics in Cincinnati or Consumer/SMB in Hawaii (collectively, "Consumer/SMB"), Enterprise Fiber or Legacy. The products and services within these three categories can be further categorized as either Data, Voice, Video or Other. Consumer/SMB and Legacy revenue include both residential and commercial customers. Enterprise Fiber revenue includes ethernet and dedicated internet access services that are provided to enterprise customers, as well as revenue associated with the trans-Pacific submarine cable ("SEA-US"). Residential customers have implied month-to-month contracts, while commercial customers, with the exception of contracts associated with the SEA-US, typically have contracts with a duration of one to five years and automatically renew on a month-to-month basis. Customers are invoiced on a monthly basis for services rendered. Contracts for projects that are included within the Other revenue stream are typically short in duration and less than one year. Contracts associated with the SEA-US typically range from 15 to 25 years and payment is prepaid. The IT Services and Hardware segment provides a full range of Information Technology ("IT") solutions, including Communications, Cloud and Consulting services. IT Services and Hardware customers enter into contracts that have a typical duration of one to five years, with varied renewal options at the end of the term. Customers are invoiced on a monthly basis for services rendered. The IT Services and Hardware segment also provides enterprise customers with Infrastructure Solutions, which includes the sale of hardware and maintenance contracts. These contracts are typically satisfied in less than twelve months and revenue is recognized at a point in time. The Company has elected the practical expedient described in ASC 606-10-32-18 that allows an entity to not adjust the promised amount of consideration for the effects of a significant financing component if the entity expects that the period of time between the transfer of a promised good or service to the customer and when the customer pays for such good or service will be one year or less. Customers are typically billed immediately upon the rendering of services or the delivery of products. Payment terms for customers are between 30 and 180 days. Subsequent to the acquisition of Hawaiian Telcom Holdco., Inc. ("Hawaiian Telcom"), the Company began recognizing a financing component associated with the up-front payments for services to be delivered under indefeasible right of use ("IRU") contracts for fiber circuit capacity. The IRU contracts are primarily associated with the SEA-US. The IRU contracts typically have a duration ranging from 15 to 25 years. Performance Obligations A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer, or a series of distinct goods or services, and is the unit of account defined in ASC Topic 606. The transaction price identified in the contract is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied. Contract modifications for changes to services provided are routine throughout the term of our contracts. In most instances, contract modifications are for the addition or reduction of services that are distinct, and price changes are based on the stand-alone selling price of the service and, as such, are accounted for on a prospective basis as a new contract. Goods and services are sold individually, or a contract may include multiple goods or services. For contracts with multiple goods and services, the transaction price identified in the contract is allocated to each performance obligation using the stand-alone selling price of each distinct good or service in the contract. Certain customers of the Company may receive cash-based rebates based on volume of sales, which are accounted for as variable consideration. Potential rebates are considered at contract inception in our estimate of transaction price based on the estimated projection of sales volume. Estimates are reassessed quarterly. Performance obligations are satisfied either over time as services are performed or at a point in time. Substantially all of our service revenue is recognized over time. For services transferred over time, the Company has elected the practical expedient to recognize revenue based on amounts invoiced to the customer as the Company has concluded that the invoice amount directly corresponds with the value of services provided to the customer. Management considers this a faithful depiction of the transfer of control as services are provided evenly over the month and are substantially the same over the life of the contract. As the Company has elected the practical expedients detailed at ASC 606-10-50-13, revenue for these unsatisfied performance obligations that will be billed in future periods has not been disclosed. As of June 30, 2019, our estimated revenue, including a financing component, expected to be recognized in the future related to performance obligations associated with customer contracts that are unsatisfied (or partially unsatisfied) is $38.6 million. Approximately 80% of this revenue is related to IRU contracts associated with the SEA-US. Certain IRU contracts extend for periods of up to 30 years and are invoiced at the beginning of the contract term. The revenue from such contracts is recognized over time as services are provided over the contract term. The expected revenue to be recognized for existing IRU contracts is as follows: (dollars in millions) Six months ended December 31, 2019 $ 1.3 2020 2.6 2021 2.5 2022 2.6 2023 2.5 Thereafter 27.1 Entertainment and Communications The Company has identified four distinct performance obligations in the Entertainment and Communications segment, namely Data, Voice, Video and Other. For each of the Data, Voice and Video services, service is delivered to the customer continuously and in a substantially similar manner for each period of the agreement, the customer takes full control over the services as the service is delivered, and as such Data, Voice and Video are identified to be a series of distinct services. Services provided by the Entertainment and Communications segment can be categorized into three main categories that include Consumer/SMB, Enterprise Fiber and Legacy, each of which may include one or more of the aforementioned performance obligations. Data services include high-speed internet access, digital subscriber lines, ethernet, routed network services, SONET (Synchronous Optical Network), dedicated internet access, wavelength, digital signal and IRU revenue. Voice services include traditional and fiber voice lines, switched access, digital trunking and consumer long distance calling. Video services are offered through our fiber network to residential and commercial customers based on various standard plans with the opportunity to add premium channels. To receive video services, customers are required to use the Company's set top boxes that are billed as part of the monthly recurring service. Set top boxes are not considered a separate performance obligation from video because the equipment is necessary for the service to operate and the customer has no alternative use for the equipment. Services and products not included in Data, Voice or Video are included in Other revenue and are comprised of wire care, wire time and materials projects and advertising. Transfer of control of these services and products is evaluated on an individual project basis and can occur over time or at a point in time. The Company uses multiple methods to determine stand-alone selling prices in the Entertainment and Communications segment. For Data, Video and Voice products in Consumer/SMB, market rate is the primary method used to determine stand-alone selling prices. For Data performance obligations under the Enterprise Fiber category, and Voice, Data and Other performance obligations under the Legacy category, stand-alone selling prices are determined based on a list price, discount off of list price, a tariff rate, a margin percentage range, or a minimum margin percentage. IT Services and Hardware The Company has identified four distinct performance obligations in the IT Services and Hardware segment. These performance obligations are Communications, Cloud, Consulting and Infrastructure Solutions. Communications services are monthly services that include data and VoIP services, tailored solutions that include converged IP communications of data, voice, video and mobility applications, enterprise long distance, MPLS (Multi-Protocol Label Switching) and conferencing services. Cloud services include storage, backup, disaster recovery, SLA-based monitoring and management, cloud computing and cloud consulting. Consulting services provide customers with IT staffing, consulting and emerging technology solutions. Infrastructure Solutions includes the sale of hardware and maintenance contracts as well as installation projects. For the sale of hardware, the Company evaluated whether it is the principal or the agent. The Company has concluded it acts as an agent because it does not control the inventory before it is transferred to customers, it does not have the ability to direct the product to anyone besides the purchasing customer, and it does not integrate the hardware with any of its own goods or services. In the instance where there is an issue with the hardware, the Company coordinates with the manufacturer to facilitate a return in accordance with the standard manufacturer warranty. Hardware returns are not significant to the Company. Within the IT Services and Hardware segment, stand-alone selling prices for the four performance obligations are determined based on either a margin percentage range, minimum margin percentage or standard price list. For hardware sales, revenue is recognized net of the cost of product and is recognized when the hardware is either shipped or delivered in accordance with the terms of the contract. For certain projects within Communications and Consulting, revenue is recognized when the customer communicates acceptance of the services performed. For contracts with freight on board shipping terms, management has elected to account for shipping and handling as activities to fulfill the promise to transfer the good, and therefore, has not evaluated whether shipping and handling activities are promised services to its customers. Contract Balances The Company recognizes incremental fulfillment costs as an asset when installation expenses are incurred as part of performing the agreement for Voice, Video and Data product offerings in the Entertainment and Communications segment in which the contract life is longer than one year. These fulfillment costs are amortized ratably over the expected life of the customer, which is representative of the expected period of benefit of the asset capitalized. The expected life of the customer is determined utilizing the average churn rate for each product. The Company calculates average churn based on the historical average customer life. We also recognize an asset for incremental fulfillment costs for certain Communications services in the IT Services and Hardware segment that require us to incur installation and provisioning expenses. The asset recognized for Communication services is amortized over the average contract life. Churn rates and average contract life are reviewed on an annual basis. Fulfillment costs are capitalized to “Other noncurrent assets.” The related amortization expense is recorded to “Cost of services and products.” The Company recognizes an asset for the incremental costs of acquiring a contract with a customer if we expect the benefit of those costs to be longer than one year. We have determined that certain sales incentive programs related to Voice, Video, Data and certain Communications and Cloud services meet the requirements to be capitalized. The contract asset established for the costs of acquiring a contract is recorded to “Other noncurrent assets.” Sales incentives are amortized ratably over the period that services are delivered using either an average churn rate or average contract term, both representative of the expected period of benefit of the asset capitalized. Customer churn rates and average contract term assumptions are reviewed on an annual basis. The related amortization expense is recorded to “Selling, general and administrative.” Management has elected to use the practical expedient detailed in ASC 340-40-25-4 to expense any costs to fulfill a contract and costs to obtain a contract as they are incurred when the amortization period would have been one year or less. This practical expedient has been applied to fulfillment costs that include installation costs associated with wiring projects and certain Cloud services. In addition, this practical expedient has been applied to acquisition costs associated with revenue from certain Communications projects. The following table presents the activity for the Company’s contract assets: Fulfillment Costs Cost of Acquisition Total Contract Assets (dollars in millions) Entertainment and Communications IT Services and Hardware Total Company Entertainment and Communications IT Services and Hardware Total Company Entertainment and Communications IT Services and Hardware Total Company Balance as of December 31, 2018 $ 14.5 $ 2.5 $ 17.0 $ 13.0 $ 2.0 $ 15.0 $ 27.5 $ 4.5 $ 32.0 Additions 0.9 0.7 1.6 2.5 0.4 2.9 3.4 1.1 4.5 Amortization (2.9 ) (0.4 ) (3.3 ) (2.1 ) (0.3 ) (2.4 ) (5.0 ) (0.7 ) (5.7 ) Balance as of March 31, 2019 12.5 2.8 15.3 13.4 2.1 15.5 25.9 4.9 30.8 Additions 0.9 0.9 1.8 2.5 0.6 3.1 3.4 1.5 4.9 Amortization (3.3 ) (0.4 ) (3.7 ) (1.5 ) (0.3 ) (1.8 ) (4.8 ) (0.7 ) (5.5 ) Balance as of June 30, 2019 $ 10.1 $ 3.3 $ 13.4 $ 14.4 $ 2.4 $ 16.8 $ 24.5 $ 5.7 $ 30.2 The Company recognizes a liability for cash received upfront for IRU contracts.

Mergers and Acquisitions | 4. Mergers and Acquisitions Acquisition of Hawaiian Telcom Holdco, Inc. On July 2, 2018, the Company acquired Hawaiian Telcom Holdco, Inc. for cash consideration of $218.3 million, stock consideration of $121.2 million and debt repayments, including accrued interest, of $318.2 million. Hawaiian Telcom is the ILEC for the State of Hawaii and the largest full service provider of communication services and products in the state. With the acquisition, the Company gains access to both Honolulu, a well-developed, fiber-rich city, as well as the growing neighbor islands. The companies' combined fiber networks are approximately 17,000 fiber route miles. The purchase price for Hawaiian Telcom consisted of the following: (dollars in millions) Cash consideration plus debt assumed $ 536.5 Cincinnati Bell Inc. stock issued 121.2 Debt repayment (318.2 ) Total purchase price $ 339.5 In order to fund the acquisition, the Company utilized proceeds of $350.0 million from the 8% Senior Notes due 2025 ("8% Notes"), $16.5 million of the cash that was previously restricted to fund interest payments on the 8% Notes, drew $35.0 million on the revolving credit facility and $154.0 million on the accounts receivable securitization facility. In conjunction with the acquisition, the Company issued 7.7 million Common Shares at a price of $15.70 per share as stock consideration. The Company recorded a total of $28.1 million in acquisition expenses related to the acquisition of Hawaiian Telcom, of which $0.4 million and $0.9 million were recorded in the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, and $1.9 million and $3.5 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. These expenses are recorded in "Transaction and integration costs" on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Purchase Price Allocation and Other Items The determination of the purchase price allocation to specific assets acquired and liabilities assumed is final for the Hawaiian Telcom transaction. The purchase price for Hawaiian Telcom has been allocated to individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed as follows: (dollars in millions) Hawaiian Telcom Assets acquired Cash $ 4.3 Receivables 24.8 Inventory, materials and supplies 6.7 Prepaid expenses and other current assets 5.9 Property, plant and equipment 697.6 Goodwill 10.2 Intangible assets 52.0 Deferred income tax asset 45.6 Other noncurrent assets 2.1 Total assets acquired 849.2 Liabilities assumed Accounts payable 60.0 Current portion of long-term debt 10.2 Unearned revenue and customer deposits 13.5 Accrued expenses and other current liabilities 21.8 Long-term debt, less current portion 304.5 Pension and postretirement benefit obligations 68.9 Other noncurrent liabilities 30.8 Total liabilities assumed 509.7 Net assets acquired $ 339.5 During 2019, the Company recorded immaterial measurement period adjustments for Hawaiian Telcom. The offset of these adjustments were recorded as increases to "Goodwill." The estimated fair value of identifiable intangible assets and their estimated useful lives are as follows: Hawaiian Telcom (dollars in millions) Fair Value Useful Lives Customer relationships $ 26.0 15 years Trade name 26.0 15 years Total identifiable intangible assets $ 52.0 Identifiable intangible assets are amortized over their useful lives based on a number of assumptions including the estimated period of economic benefit and utilization.

The Credit Agreement expires in October 2022. Accounts Receivable Securitization Facility In the second quarter of 2019, the Company executed amendments to its accounts receivable securitization facility ("Receivables Facility"), which replaced, amended and added certain provisions and definitions to increase the credit availability and renew the facility, which is subject to renewal every Under the agreement, certain U.S. and Canadian subsidiaries, as originators, sell their respective trade receivables on a continuous basis to Cincinnati Bell Funding LLC (“CBF”) or Cincinnati Bell Funding Canada Ltd. ("CBFC"), wholly-owned consolidated subsidiaries of the Company. Although CBF and CBFC are wholly-owned consolidated subsidiaries of the Company, CBF and CBFC are legally separate from the Company and each of the Company’s other subsidiaries. Upon and after the sale or contribution of the accounts receivable to CBF or CBFC, such accounts receivable are legally assets of CBF and CBFC and, as such, are not available to creditors of other subsidiaries or the parent company. The Receivables Facility includes an option to sell certain receivables on a no n-recourse basis. As of June 30 , 2019, the outstanding balance of certain accounts receivable sold was $ 20.6 million . Other Installment Financing Arrangements The Company has other installment financing arrangements that are recorded in "Other current liabilities" and "Other noncurrent liabilities" in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The IT Services and Hardware segment entered into a lease in June 2018 for a building to use in its data center operations. Structural improvements were made to the leased facility in excess of normal tenant improvements and, as such, the Company was deemed the accounting owner of this facility. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the liability related to this financing arrangement was $4.5 million and is included in "Other noncurrent liabilities" in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Prior to the acquisition of Hawaiian Telcom in July 2018, Hawaiian Telcom had an open dispute related to jointly-owned utility poles. In October 2018, the Company entered into the Pole License Agreement that provided for the transfer of the Company's ownership responsibility of the utility poles to Hawaiian Electric Company (“HEC”) and for the Company to pay a fixed annual fee to HEC for continued use of the poles. Due to the continuing involvement by the Company, this transaction did not meet the requirements to be accounted for as a sale-leaseback, and therefore it has been treated as a financing obligation. As of June 30, 2019, the Company has a liability recorded of $39.6 million, of which $1.0 million is included in "Other current liabilities” in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of December 31, 2018, the Company has a liability recorded of $40.1 million, of which $1.0 million is included in "Other current liabilities" in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. |

Leases [Abstract] | |
Leases | 7. Leases Lessee Disclosures The Company primarily leases real estate for offices, retail stores and central offices, as well as equipment, cell towers and fleet vehicles. The Company leases its real estate for terms between 1 and Upon adoption, the Company elected not to recognize leases with terms of one-year or less on the balance sheet. The Company's leases generally do not provide an implicit rate, and therefore the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate when measuring operating lease liabilities. The incremental borrowing rate represents an estimate of the interest rate the Company would incur at lease commencement to borrow an amount equal to the lease payments on a collateralized basis over the term of the lease.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements | 8. Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements Fair Value Measurements The Company defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset, or paid to transfer a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. To increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements, the Company uses a three-level hierarchy that prioritizes the use of observable inputs. The three levels are: Level 1 — Quoted market prices for identical instruments in an active market; Level 2 — Quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (i.e., interest rates, yield curves, etc.), and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (market corroborated inputs); and Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that reflect management's determination of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. These inputs are developed based on the best information available, including our own data. The determination of where an asset or liability falls in the hierarchy requires significant judgment. Interest Rate Swaps The Company uses interest rate swap agreements to minimize its exposure to interest rate fluctuations on variable rate debt borrowings. Interest rate swaps involve the exchange of fixed and variable rate interest payments and do not represent an actual exchange of the underlying notional amounts between parties. In the second quarter of 2018, the Company entered into one forward starting non-amortizing interest rate swap with a notional amount of $300.0 million to convert variable rate debt to fixed rate debt. The interest rate swap became effective in June 2018 and expires in June 2023. The interest rate swap results in interest payments based on an average fixed rate of 2.938% plus the applicable margin per the requirements in the Credit Agreement. In the first quarter of 2019, the Company entered into three forward starting non-amortizing interest rate swaps, with a notional amount of $89.0 million each, to convert variable rate debt to fixed rate debt. The interest rate swaps became effective in March 2019 and expire in March 2024. The interest rate swaps result in interest payments based on an average fixed rate per swap of 2.275%, 2.244% and 2.328% plus the applicable margin per the requirements in the Credit Agreement. During the next twelve months, the Company estimates that $4.4 million will be reclassified as an increase to interest expense. The fair value of the Company's interest rate swaps are impacted by the credit risk of both the Company and its counterparties. The Company has agreements with its derivative financial instrument counterparties that contain provisions providing that if the Company defaults on the indebtedness associated with its derivative financial instruments, then the Company could also be declared in default on its derivative financial instruments obligations. In addition, the Company minimizes nonperformance risk on its derivative instruments by evaluating the creditworthiness of its counterparties, which are limited to major banks and financial institutions. Upon inception, the interest rate swaps were designated as cash flow hedges under ASC 815, with gains and losses, net of tax, measured on an ongoing basis recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss . The fair value of the interest rate swaps are categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy as they are based on well-recognized financial principles and available market data. As of June 30, 2019, the fair value of the interest rate swaps was $18.7 million and is recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2019 as follows: (dollars in millions) Balance Sheet Location June 30, 2019 Quoted Prices in active markets Level 1 Significant observable inputs Level 2 Significant unobservable inputs Level 3 Liabilities: Interest Rate Swap Other current liabilities $ 4.2 $ — $ 4.2 $ — Interest Rate Swap Other noncurrent liabilities $ 14.5 $ — $ 14.5 $ — As of December 31, 2018, the fair value of the interest rate swap liability was $5.0 million and is recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2018 as follows: (dollars in millions) Balance Sheet Location December 31, 2018 Quoted Prices in active markets Level 1 Significant observable inputs Level 2 Significant unobservable inputs Level 3 Liabilities: Interest Rate Swap Other current liabilities $ 1.2 $ — $ 1.2 $ — Interest Rate Swap Other noncurrent liabilities $ 3.8 $ — $ 3.8 $ — The amount of losses recognized in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income ("AOCI") net of reclassifications into earnings is as follows: Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, (dollars in millions) 2019 2018 2019 2018 Interest Rate Swap $ (9.9 ) $ — $ (13.7 ) $ — The amount of losses reclassified from AOCI into earnings is as follows: Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, (dollars in millions) Statement of Operations Location 2019 2018 2019 2018 Interest Rate Swap Interest expense $ (0.2 ) $ — $ (0.5 ) $ — Disclosure on Financial Instruments The carrying values of the Company's financial instruments approximate the estimated fair values as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, except for the Company's long-term debt and other installment financing arrangements. The carrying and fair values of these items are as follows: June 30, 2019 December 31, 2018 (dollars in millions) Carrying Value Fair Value Carrying Value Fair Value Long-term debt, including current portion* $ 1,878.2 $ 1,744.5 $ 1,880.0 $ 1,673.6 Other installment financing arrangements 44.1 43.7 44.6 43.6 * Excludes capital leases, other financing arrangements and note issuance costs. The fair value of our long-term debt was based on closing or estimated market prices of the Company’s debt at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, which is considered Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

General Discussion Of Pension And Other Postretirement Benefits [Abstract] | |
Pension and Postretirement Plans | 9. Pension and Postretirement Plans As of June 30, 2019, the Company sponsors three noncontributory defined benefit plans and a postretirement health and life insurance plan in Cincinnati (collectively the "Cincinnati Plans"), and one noncontributory defined benefit plan for union employees, one cash balance pension plan for nonunion employees, and two postretirement health and life insurance plans for Hawaiian Telcom employees (collectively the "Hawaii Plans"). In accordance with ASC 715, only the service cost component of net benefit cost is eligible for capitalization, which was immaterial for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, pension and postretirement costs (benefits) were as follows: Three Months Ended June 30, 2019 2018 2019 2018 (dollars in millions) Pension Benefits Postretirement and Other Benefits Service cost $ — $ — $ 0.1 $ — Other components of pension and postretirement benefit plans expense: Interest cost on projected benefit obligation 6.0 4.1 1.3 0.8 Expected return on plan assets (7.5 ) (6.2 ) — — Amortization of: Prior service benefit — — (0.7 ) (0.8 ) Actuarial loss 3.4 4.2 0.5 1.1 Total amortization 3.4 4.2 (0.2 ) 0.3 Pension / postretirement costs $ 1.9 $ 2.1 $ 1.2 $ 1.1 Six Months Ended June 30, 2019 2018 2019 2018 (dollars in millions) Pension Benefits Postretirement and Other Benefits Service cost $ — $ — $ 0.3 $ 0.1 Other components of pension and postretirement benefit plans expense: Interest cost on projected benefit obligation 12.0 8.3 2.5 1.6 Expected return on plan assets (15.3 ) (12.4 ) — — Amortization of: Prior service benefit — — (1.3 ) (1.6 ) Actuarial loss 6.8 8.5 0.9 2.1 Total amortization 6.8 8.5 (0.4 ) 0.5 Pension / postretirement costs $ 3.5 $ 4.4 $ 2.4 $ 2.2 Amortizations of prior service benefit and actuarial loss represent reclassifications from accumulated other comprehensive income. Based on current assumptions, contributions are expected to be approximately $3 million to both the qualified and non-qualified pension plans in 2019. Management expects to make cash payments of approximately $9 million related to its postretirement health plans in 2019. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, contributions to the pension plans were $2.5 million and contributions to the postretirement plans were $3.4 million. For the six months ended June 30, 2018, contributions to the pension plans were $2.8 million and contributions to the postretirement plan were $3.5 million. |

Organization Consolidation And Presentation Of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation — The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations, other comprehensive income, financial position and cash flows for each period presented. The adjustments referred to above are of a normal and recurring nature. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to SEC rules and regulations for interim reporting. The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2018 was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year or any other interim period. |
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates — Preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported. Actual results could differ from those estimates. In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to various regulatory and tax proceedings, lawsuits, claims and other matters. The Company believes adequate provision has been made for all such asserted and unasserted claims in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Such matters are subject to many uncertainties and outcomes that are not predictable with assurance. |
Business Combinations | Business Combinations — In accounting for business combinations, we apply the accounting requirements of Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 805, “Business Combinations,” which requires the recording of net assets of acquired businesses at fair value. In developing fair value estimates for acquired assets and assumed liabilities, management analyzes a variety of factors including market data, estimated future cash flows of the acquired operations, industry growth rates, current replacement cost for fixed assets, and market rate assumptions for contractual obligations. Such a valuation requires management to make significant estimates and assumptions, particularly with respect to the intangible assets. The Company reports in its consolidated financial statements provisional amounts for the items for which accounting is incomplete. Goodwill is adjusted for any changes to provisional amounts made within the measurement period. See Note 4 for disclosures related to mergers and acquisitions. |
Leases | Leases - The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception based on the facts and circumstances present. In lease transactions where the Company acts as the lessor, the lease component is accounted for in accordance with ASC 842, and the non-lease component is accounted for in accordance with ASC 606. Although separation of lease and non-lease components is required, certain practical expedients are available that release the Company from this requirement. Adoption of the practical expedient allows the Company to account for each lease component and the related non-lease component together as a single component provided that the timing and patterns of revenue recognition for the components are the same and the combined, single unit of account would be classified as an operating lease. The Company's operating leases for certain services that include Customer Premise Equipment, including handsets and set-top boxes, have lease and non-lease components. In these arrangements, management has concluded that the non-lease components are the predominant characteristic, and, as a result, the Company has elected to account for these arrangements as one single non-lease component recorded as "Revenue" on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations in accordance with ASC 606. Right-of-use assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term, and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease right-of-use assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Certain adjustments to the right-of-use asset may be required for items such as initial direct costs paid or incentives received. The Company's lease terms include options to extend, terminate or buyout the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Leases that have contract prices based on variable factors, such as power usage, are recognized as variable lease expense in the period in which the obligation for those payments are incurred. Lease expense for variable lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. |
Income Taxes | Income taxes — In accordance with ASC 740-270, the Company’s income tax provision for interim periods is determined through the use of an estimated annual effective tax rate applied to year-to-date ordinary income/loss plus or minus the tax effects of discrete items. The Company expects its annual effective tax rate benefit to be lower than statutory rates as a result of permanent items such as meals and entertainment expenses that are not fully deductible for tax. The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 limits the Company’s interest deduction to 30% of tax earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization for years beginning before January 1, 2022. Thereafter, the interest deduction is limited to 30% of tax earnings before interest and taxes. Any disallowed interest in a year becomes a separate deferred tax asset with an indefinite carryforward period that can be utilized by the Company in a future tax year by an amount equal to its interest limitation in excess of its interest expense for that year. |
Operating Taxes | Operating taxes — The Company elected to record certain operating taxes such as property, sales, use, and gross receipts taxes including telecommunications surcharges as expenses, primarily within cost of services and products. These taxes are not included in income tax expense because the amounts to be paid are not dependent on our level of income. Liabilities for audit exposures are established based on management's assessment of the probability of payment. The provision for such liabilities is recognized as either property, plant and equipment, operating tax expense, or depreciation expense depending on the nature of the audit exposure. Upon resolution of an audit, any remaining liability not paid is released against the account in which it was originally recorded. Certain telecommunication taxes and surcharges that are collected from customers are also recorded as revenue; however, in accordance with ASC 606, revenue associated with these charges is excluded from the transaction price. |
Derivative Financial Instruments | Derivative Financial Instruments — The Company accounts for derivative financial instruments by recognizing derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value and recognizing the resulting gains or losses as adjustments to the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations or "Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss." The Company does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. For derivative instruments that hedge the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges, the gain or loss on the derivative instrument is reported as a component of "Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss" in stockholder's equity and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. To receive hedge accounting treatment, cash flow hedges must be highly effective in offsetting changes to expected future cash flows on hedged transactions. Derivatives that do not qualify as hedges are adjusted to fair value through earnings in the current period. |
Recently Issued Accounting Standards | Recently Issued Accounting Standards In August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2018-15, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software, which aligns the accounting for implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements in ASC 350-40 for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software. The amendments in this ASU also require the entity to present the expense related to the capitalized implementation costs in the same line item in the statement of income as the fees associated with the hosting element of the arrangement and classify payments for capitalized implementation costs in the statement of cash flows in the same manner as payments made for fees associated with the hosting element. The amendments in this ASU are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The amendments should be applied either retrospectively or prospectively to all implementation costs incurred after the date of adoption. Early adoption is permitted in any interim period after issuance of the update. The Company early adopted this standard prospectively effective January 1, 2019. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases, which represents a wholesale change to lease accounting. Since that date, the FASB has issued additional ASUs clarifying certain aspects of ASU 2016-02 but did not change the core principal. The standard introduces a lessee model that brings most leases onto the balance sheet, as well as aligns certain underlying principles of the new lessor model with those in ASC 606. The ASU is effective for public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company adopted the standard and all subsequent amendments effective January 1, 2019, using the modified retrospective transition method, which did not require the Company to adjust comparative periods. The Company elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance, which allowed the Company to carryforward its historical assessments of: (1) whether contracts are or contain leases, (2) lease classification and (3) initial direct costs. In addition to the package of practical expedients, the Company elected the practical expedients of using hindsight in determining the lease term and in assessing impairment of the entity’s right-of-use assets as well as not to assess whether existing or expired land easements that were not previously accounted for as leases under ASC 840 are or contain a lease under ASC 842. Upon adoption of this standard, the Company recognized operating lease right-of-use assets of $38.3 million and operating lease liabilities of $46.2 million in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company elected the practical expedient outlined in ASU 2018-11 allowing entities to initially apply the new lease standard at the adoption date and recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. The adoption of ASU 2016-02 had no impact to accumulated deficit. The Company implemented internal controls and procured a third-party lease accounting software solution to facilitate the ongoing accounting and financial reporting requirements of the ASU. The standard did not have a material impact on our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. The most significant impact was the recognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for operating leases, while our accounting for finance leases remained substantially unchanged. See Note 7 for required disclosures as a result of adopting ASC 842. Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB or other standard-setting bodies that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements upon adoption. |
Earnings Per Common Share | Basic earnings per common share (“EPS”) is based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that would occur upon issuance of common shares for awards under stock-based compensation plans or conversion of preferred stock, but only to the extent that they are considered dilutive. |
Revenue | The Entertainment and Communications segment provides products and services to both residential and commercial customers that can be categorized as either Fioptics in Cincinnati or Consumer/SMB in Hawaii (collectively, "Consumer/SMB"), Enterprise Fiber or Legacy. The products and services within these three categories can be further categorized as either Data, Voice, Video or Other. Consumer/SMB and Legacy revenue include both residential and commercial customers. Enterprise Fiber revenue includes ethernet and dedicated internet access services that are provided to enterprise customers, as well as revenue associated with the trans-Pacific submarine cable ("SEA-US"). Residential customers have implied month-to-month contracts, while commercial customers, with the exception of contracts associated with the SEA-US, typically have contracts with a duration of one to five years and automatically renew on a month-to-month basis. Customers are invoiced on a monthly basis for services rendered. Contracts for projects that are included within the Other revenue stream are typically short in duration and less than one year. Contracts associated with the SEA-US typically range from 15 to 25 years and payment is prepaid. The IT Services and Hardware segment provides a full range of Information Technology ("IT") solutions, including Communications, Cloud and Consulting services. IT Services and Hardware customers enter into contracts that have a typical duration of one to five years, with varied renewal options at the end of the term. Customers are invoiced on a monthly basis for services rendered. The IT Services and Hardware segment also provides enterprise customers with Infrastructure Solutions, which includes the sale of hardware and maintenance contracts. These contracts are typically satisfied in less than twelve months and revenue is recognized at a point in time. The Company has elected the practical expedient described in ASC 606-10-32-18 that allows an entity to not adjust the promised amount of consideration for the effects of a significant financing component if the entity expects that the period of time between the transfer of a promised good or service to the customer and when the customer pays for such good or service will be one year or less. Customers are typically billed immediately upon the rendering of services or the delivery of products. Payment terms for customers are between 30 and 180 days. Subsequent to the acquisition of Hawaiian Telcom Holdco., Inc. ("Hawaiian Telcom"), the Company began recognizing a financing component associated with the up-front payments for services to be delivered under indefeasible right of use ("IRU") contracts for fiber circuit capacity. The IRU contracts are primarily associated with the SEA-US. The IRU contracts typically have a duration ranging from 15 to 25 years. |
Fair Value Measurement | The fair value of the interest rate swaps are categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy as they are based on well-recognized financial principles and available market data.The fair value of our long-term debt was based on closing or estimated market prices of the Company’s debt at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, which is considered Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
