We made significant progress across each of our three key value drivers — generating industry-leading organic growth from our core cable operations, seizing accretive M&A opportunities, and actively managing our balance sheet and capital structure to drive equity returns. These core components of our strategy remain unchanged since the Company’s formation in 2005, and we continue to deliver strong results with this focus. On the operating front, we launched hundreds of new and innovative products in 2009 that are enriching the digital lives of our 17 million customers around the world. Despite challenges posed by the global recession, we added a record 2.8 million new subscribers to our advanced digital services. This, in turn, fueled solid rebased revenue growth of 4% to $11.1 billion. Scale and cost efficiencies helped drive even faster rebased operating cash flow (OCF) growth of 7% CEO to $4.9 billion, while free cash flow (FCF) increased 47% to D n A T $1.1 billion for the full year. n R Michael T. Fries P ESIDE n . A c m H John C AIR Malone 3 PORT E R AL U n n On the M&A front, we concluded two important transactions A early this year. In January 2010, we completed the $5.7 billion 2 0 0 9 acquisition for 100% of Unitymedia, the second largest cable operator in Germany. Unity is a perfect fit for LGI for a whole host of reasons — footprint, scale, synergies and untapped growth potential in one of Europe’s fastest growing cable markets. Then in February 2010, we completed the strategic disposal of our 38% interest in J:COM for gross proceeds of $4.0 billion — a 65% premium to the implied value of our stake based on J:COM’s stock price at the time of signing. The J:COM transaction closes the chapter on our involvement in Japan, where we helped create the country’s largest cable operator. Our decision to exit reflects our determination to pursue transactions that deliver meaningful financial returns for the benefit of shareholders. The net effect of the Unitymedia and J:COM transactions will enhance the Company’s focus on our European operations, and significantly increase our financial and strategic flexibility. Our balance sheet has never been stronger with more than $3.0 billion of cash at December 31, 2009. After extending approximately $9 billion of debt maturities last year and, taking into account the Unitymedia and J:COM transactions, 95% of our debt now matures in 2013 and beyond. We remain committed to our levered equity strategy, and expect to continue our focus on stock buybacks as the most efficient way to return capital to our shareholders. In fact, we’ve repurchased $6.3 billion of our equity since 2005 and reduced our shares outstanding by more than 43%. 4 LIBERTY GLOBAL The combination of steady organic growth, accretive M&A activity, and smart balance sheet management was recognized by the market, with our stock price increasing 38% last year. Given the positive trends we see emerging from our next generation digital video and broadband products, along with a cash-rich and prudently-managed balance sheet, we believe that we are well-positioned to drive equity returns in 2010 and beyond. Of course, we could not execute on our strategic priorities without the dedication and commitment of our 23,000 employees around the world. Liberty Global’s Board of Directors and the entire management team remain focused on driving superior shareholder returns over the long term. We appreciate your continued support. Sincerely, John C. Malone Michael T. Fries Chairman of the Board President and CEO March 10, 2010 5 PORT E R AL U n n A 2 0 0 9 PRODUCT AnD TECHnOLOGY Strategy A key goal for 2010 is extending our track record of innovation by launching new cable products that help improve and simplify the digital lives of our customers. Our operating focus remains on driving incremental penetration of our advanced services — digital video, voice, and broadband internet — which together represent more than 70% of our subscriber base. Strong demand for our core, triple-play products, along with strengthened and simplified marketing offers, led to record growth for advanced services with over 2.8 million new subscriber additions in 2009.
