Commercial momentum supporting YoY revenue growth

Strongest quarterly mobile postpaid additions in three years

Return to positive Operating Income; 7% YoY rebased Adjusted OIBDA growth

Strategic initiatives remain in focus

DENVER, Colorado--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Liberty Latin America Ltd. (“Liberty Latin America” or “LLA”) (NASDAQ: LILA and LILAK, OTC Link: LILAB) today announced its financial and operating results for the three months (“Q3”) and nine months ("YTD") ended September 30, 2025.

CEO Balan Nair commented, “Q3 saw strong commercial momentum leading to YoY rebased revenue growth at Liberty Latin America."

"We continue to see particular strength in our mobile business as we push FMC. Led by Costa Rica, postpaid additions in Q3 were the highest in three years. Revenue, as we highlighted at Q2 earnings, was also helped by better momentum in B2B."

“Solid execution on cost reduction and customer base management, meanwhile, has helped maintain rebased Adjusted OIBDA expansion, growing 7% YoY in both Q3 and YTD. On a sequential basis, all operating segments registered Adjusted OIBDA growth driving LLA's Adjusted OIBDA margin to 39% for the quarter. Across the group, we have a number of cost reduction programs in flight, which will carry on into 2026."

"I also want to highlight the toll Hurricane Melissa has taken on our Caribbean communities, especially in Jamaica, where many of our employees, customers and partners live and work. We are repairing and rebuilding our critical communications infrastructure to help drive rapid economic recovery. We launched a collaboration with Starlink to deliver a direct-to-cell satellite service to further aid essential communications for our customers during this difficult period. Additionally, we expect to receive proceeds from our weather derivative in Q4, which will further support our recovery."

"On the back of the strong Q3 and YTD performance, and notwithstanding near-term storm recovery in the Caribbean, we continue to anticipate underlying seasonal strength in Adjusted FCF in the fourth quarter. Separately, we remain focused on unlocking the significant sum-of-the-parts discount embedded in the stock."

Business Highlights

  • Liberty Caribbean: strong Q3 results; highlighting robust operating leverage
    • Continued FMC adoption; driving postpaid subscriber growth
    • Posted rebased Adjusted OIBDA growth of 10% YoY; margin up ~300 basis points
  • C&W Panama: B2B drives Q3 top-line performance
    • Delivering rebased revenue growth of 6% YoY
    • Residential fixed and mobile subscriber growth setting stage for continued top line improvement
  • Liberty Networks: best quarterly rebased revenue growth in two years
    • 6% YoY rebased revenue growth in Q3, driven by subsea capacity
    • 10% YoY rebased Adjusted OIBDA growth, attaining a 56% margin
  • Liberty Puerto Rico: highest quarterly Adjusted OIBDA since Q4 2023
    • 7% YoY rebased Adjusted OIBDA growth supported by comprehensive cost reduction
    • Launched attractive postpaid CVP in Q3; leaning into FMC
  • Liberty Costa Rica: mobile momentum fueling financial growth
    • Strong quarter of postpaid mobile subscriber additions
    • Adjusted OIBDA expanded 7% YoY on a rebased basis

Hurricane Melissa

In late October 2025, Hurricane Melissa, a Category 5 hurricane, primarily impacted our Jamaican operation. As a result of the storm, Jamaica experienced significant damage to homes, businesses and infrastructure, especially in the Western half of Jamaica, with the Eastern half including Kingston seeing less long-term damage.

We anticipate adverse impacts to our financial results in Q4 2025 and into 2026. Our assessment is in the early days and will be dependent upon a number of items, including the return of power across the island.

We have had independent confirmation that our parametric insurance program for storm protection has been triggered and, as of today, we expect to receive third-party proceeds during Q4 which will be used to rebuild impacted components of our network and mitigate loss of revenue.

N.M. – Not Meaningful.

  • Reported revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 was 2% higher and 1% lower as compared to the corresponding prior-year periods, respectively.
    • Reported revenue in Q3 came from growth across all segments with the exception of Puerto Rico, which was also the principal driver of the negative YTD trends.

Q3 2025 Revenue Growth – Segment Highlights

(All growth rates are year-over-year unless otherwise specified)

  • Liberty Caribbean: revenue grew 3% on both a reported and rebased basis. Fixed residential revenue increased by 5% while both residential mobile and B2B revenue increased by 2% on a rebased basis.
    • Our quarterly performance benefitted from our continued strategic focus on FMC initiatives, selected price increases over the last year, and a favorable comparison, as our business was adversely impacted by Hurricane Beryl in the prior year period.
  • C&W Panama: revenue increased by 6% on a reported and rebased basis.
    • The principal driver of this performance was B2B, as we delivered 14% rebased growth, due largely to higher revenue from large enterprise and government projects. Additionally, compared to Q2 2025, B2B revenue increased by ~$20 million.
  • Liberty Networks: revenue increased 6% on a reported and rebased basis driven by YoY expansion in both our wholesale and enterprise businesses, with growth in subsea capacity revenue fueling our performance.
  • Liberty Puerto Rico: revenue was 3% and 5% lower on a reported and rebased basis, respectively. As seen in prior quarters, our rebased revenue decline was due principally to a 7% decrease in residential mobile and a 16% decline in B2B, resulting from the challenges with our mobile network migration which was completed last year.
    • Sequentially to Q2 2025, our revenue is 1% lower on a reported basis, or $3 million, reflecting the impact of a lower mobile and fixed customer base. However, recently introduced customer value propositions have shown traction within the market and we are focused on driving improved results during the key Q4 selling season.
  • Liberty Costa Rica: revenue grew by 6% on a reported basis and 3% on a rebased basis. Rebased growth was driven by higher residential mobile revenue, primarily due to postpaid subscriber growth and higher mobile equipment sales.

 Operating Income (Loss)

  • We reported operating income (loss) of $188 million and $(380) million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $(17) million and $(176) million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
    • The improvement for both comparative periods is primarily due to (i) for the three month comparison, lower impairment charges where we had a goodwill impairment recorded at Liberty Puerto Rico during the third quarter of 2024, (ii) increases in Adjusted OIBDA, and (iii) decreases in depreciation and amortization.

  • Adjusted OIBDA for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 both increased by 8% on a reported basis as compared to the corresponding prior-year periods.
    • Adjusted OIBDA increased in Q3 driven by growth across all operating segments.
    • Across LLA, we have a number of cost reduction programs in flight, which are providing each of our operating segments and corporate, with enhanced operating leverage, as we streamline our operating structure and achieve cost efficiencies. These activities will carry over into 2026.

Q3 2025 Adjusted OIBDA Growth – Segment Highlights

(All growth rates are year-over-year unless otherwise specified)

  • Liberty Caribbean: Adjusted OIBDA rose by 9% and 10% on a reported and rebased basis, respectively. The growth was supported in part by improved operating costs, reflecting the impact of a comprehensive efficiency and savings program over the last year. This has contributed to an Adjusted OIBDA margin of 47%, a nearly 300 basis point increase over Q3 2024.
  • C&W Panama: Adjusted OIBDA increased by 5% and 4% on a reported and rebased basis, respectively, driven by B2B project revenue and network efficiencies.
  • Liberty Networks: Adjusted OIBDA increased by 10% on both a reported and rebased basis, respectively, primarily due to higher revenue and lower bad debt expense, as compared to Q3 2024.
  • Liberty Puerto Rico: Adjusted OIBDA increased by 8% and 7% on a reported and rebased basis, respectively, despite the aforementioned rebased revenue decline.
    • The business has been engaged in an aggressive cost-out program in 2025 and, as a result, has been able to further streamline and right size its operating structure and processes to complement its current customer base. This also supported trends sequentially with reported Adjusted OIBDA up 10% versus Q2 2025.
  • Liberty Costa Rica: Adjusted OIBDA grew by 11% on a reported basis and 7% on a rebased basis. The strong rebased performance was driven by the revenue increase with costs, aside from those related to equipment sales, remaining relatively stable.

Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Shareholders

  • Net income (loss) attributable to shareholders was $3 million and $(556) million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, and $(436) million and $(479) million for each of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024.

  1. Liberty Costa Rica postpaid and prepaid variances include 21,600 subscribers that were migrated from prepaid to postpaid during the third quarter of 2025. These customers are part of a hybrid mobile plan that we initially expected would have had characteristics more of a prepaid arrangement, but as of Q3 2025 were considered more akin to postpaid subscribers in terms of attributes such as churn. These subscribers are now treated equivalently to postpaid subscribers in terms of monthly billing and collection cycles. Of the 21,600 subscribers, 11,500 were added in Q2 2025, 5,000 were added in Q1 2025 and 5,100 were added in late 2024 when this mobile plan was first launched. Adjusting to exclude these transfers from prepaid to postpaid, LLA’s and Liberty Costa Rica’s postpaid net additions for Q3 2025 would have been 80,100 and 59,700, respectively

Glossary

Adjusted OIBDA – Operating income or loss before share-based compensation and other Employee Incentive Plan-related expense, depreciation and amortization, provisions and provision releases related to significant litigation and impairment, restructuring and Other Operating Items. Other Operating Items includes (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.

Adjusted OIBDA Margin – Calculated by dividing Adjusted OIBDA by total revenue for the applicable period.

ARPU – Average revenue per unit refers to the average monthly subscription revenue (subscription revenue excludes interconnect, mobile handset sales and late fees) per average customer relationship or mobile subscriber, as applicable. ARPU per average customer relationship is calculated by dividing the average monthly subscription revenue from residential fixed and SOHO fixed services by the average of the opening and closing balances for customer relationships for the indicated period. ARPU per average mobile subscriber is calculated by dividing the average monthly mobile service revenue by the average of the opening and closing balances for mobile subscribers for the indicated period. Unless otherwise indicated, ARPU per customer relationship or mobile subscriber is not adjusted for currency impacts. ARPU per average RGU is calculated by dividing the average monthly subscription revenue from the applicable residential fixed service by the average of the opening and closing balances of the applicable RGUs for the indicated period. Unless otherwise noted, ARPU in this release is considered to be ARPU per average customer relationship or mobile subscriber, as applicable. Customer relationships, mobile subscribers and RGUs of entities acquired during the period are normalized.

Consolidated Debt and Finance Lease Obligations to Operating Income Ratio – Defined as total principal amount of debt outstanding (including liabilities related to vendor financing, debt related to the Tower Transactions, other debt and finance lease obligations) to annualized operating income from the most recent two consecutive fiscal quarters.

Consolidated Net Debt and Finance Lease Obligations to Operating Income Ratio – Defined as total principal amount of debt outstanding (including liabilities related to vendor financing, debt related to the Tower Transactions, other debt and finance lease obligations) less cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash related to debt to annualized operating income from the most recent two consecutive fiscal quarters.

Customer Relationships – The number of customers who receive at least one of our video, internet or telephony services that we count as RGUs, without regard to which or to how many services they subscribe. To the extent that RGU counts include equivalent billing unit (“EBU”) adjustments, we reflect corresponding adjustments to our customer relationship counts. For further information regarding our EBU calculation, see Additional General Notes below. Customer relationships generally are counted on a unique premises basis. Accordingly, if an individual receives our services in two premises (e.g., a primary home and a vacation home), that individual generally will count as two customer relationships. We exclude mobile-only customers from customer relationships.

FMC penetration – Calculated as Fixed Customer Relationships with a postpaid product as a percentage of total Fixed Customer Relationships, including both customers who have converged products and are receiving a financial or experience benefit from them and customers who have a postpaid product outside of an FMC bundle and are not receiving a financial or experience benefit from it.

Fully-swapped Borrowing Cost – Represents the weighted average interest rate on our debt (excluding finance leases and including vendor financing obligations, debt related to the Tower Transactions and other debt), including the effects of derivative instruments, original issue premiums or discounts and commitment fees, but excluding the impact of financing costs.

Homes Passed – Homes, residential multiple dwelling units or commercial units that can be connected to our networks without materially extending the distribution plant. Certain of our homes passed counts are based on census data that can change based on either revisions to the data or from new census results.

Internet (Broadband) RGU – A home, residential multiple dwelling unit or commercial unit that receives internet services over our network.

Leverage – Our gross and net leverage ratios, each a non-GAAP measure, are defined as total debt (total principal amount of debt outstanding, including liabilities related to vendor financing, debt related to the Tower Transactions, other debt and finance lease obligations, net of projected derivative principal-related cash payments (receipts)) and net debt to annualized Adjusted OIBDA of the latest two quarters. Net debt is defined as total debt less cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash related to debt. For purposes of these calculations, debt is measured using swapped foreign currency rates, consistent with the covenant calculation requirements of our subsidiary debt agreements.

Mobile Subscribers – Our mobile subscriber count represents the number of active subscriber identification module (“SIM”) cards in service rather than services provided. For example, if a mobile subscriber has both a data and voice plan on a smartphone this would equate to one mobile subscriber. Alternatively, a subscriber who has a voice and data plan for a mobile handset and a data plan for a laptop (via a dongle) would be counted as two mobile subscribers. Customers who do not pay a recurring monthly fee are excluded from our mobile telephony subscriber counts after periods of inactivity ranging from 30 to 90 days, based on industry standards within the respective country. In a number of countries, our mobile subscribers receive mobile services pursuant to prepaid contracts.

NPS – Net promoter score.

Property and Equipment Addition Categories

  • Customer Premises Equipment: Includes capitalizable equipment and labor, materials and other costs directly associated with the installation of such CPE;
  • New Build & Upgrade: Includes capitalizable costs of network equipment, materials, labor and other costs directly associated with entering a new service area and upgrading our existing network;
  • Capacity: Includes capitalizable costs for network capacity required for growth and services expansions from both existing and new customers. This category covers Core and Access parts of the network and includes, for example, fiber node splits, upstream/downstream spectrum upgrades and optical equipment additions in our international backbone connections;
  • Baseline: Includes capitalizable costs of equipment, materials, labor and other costs directly associated with maintaining and supporting the business. Relates to areas such as network improvement, property and facilities, technical sites, information technology systems and fleet; and
  • Product & Enablers: Discretionary capitalizable costs that include investments (i) required to support, maintain, launch or innovate in new customer products, and (ii) in infrastructure, which drive operational efficiency over the long term.

Proportionate Net Leverage Ratio (C&W) – Calculated in accordance with C&W's Credit Agreement, taking into account the ratio of outstanding indebtedness (subject to certain exclusions) less cash and cash equivalents to EBITDA (subject to certain adjustments) for the last two quarters annualized, with both indebtedness and EBITDA reduced proportionately to remove any noncontrolling interests' share of the C&W group.

Revenue Generating Unit (RGU) – RGU is separately a video RGU, internet RGU or telephony RGU. A home, residential multiple dwelling unit, or commercial unit may contain one or more RGUs. For example, if a residential customer in Puerto Rico subscribed to our video service, fixed-line telephony service and broadband internet service, the customer would constitute three RGUs. RGUs are generally counted on a unique premises basis such that a given premises does not count as more than one RGU for any given service. On the other hand, if an individual receives one of our services in two premises (e.g., a primary home and a vacation home), that individual will count as two RGUs for that service. Each bundled video, internet or telephony service is counted as a separate RGU regardless of the nature of any bundling discount or promotion. Non-paying subscribers are counted as RGUs during their free promotional service period. Some of these subscribers may choose to disconnect after their free service period. Services offered without charge on a long-term basis (e.g., VIP subscribers or free service to employees) generally are not counted as RGUs. We do not include subscriptions to mobile services in our externally reported RGU counts. In this regard, our RGU counts exclude our separately reported postpaid and prepaid mobile subscribers.

SOHO – Small office/home office customers.

Telephony RGU – A home, residential multiple dwelling unit or commercial unit that receives voice services over our network. Telephony RGUs exclude mobile subscribers.

Tower Transactions – Transactions entered into during 2023 associated with certain of our mobile towers across various markets that (i) have terms of 15 or 20 years and did not meet the criteria to be accounted for as a sale and leaseback and (ii) also include "build to suit" sites that we are obligated to construct over the next 4 years.

U.S. GAAP – Generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.

Video RGU – A home, residential multiple dwelling unit or commercial unit that receives our video service over our network, primarily via a digital video signal while subscribing to any recurring monthly service that requires the use of encryption-enabling technology. Video RGUs that are not counted on an EBU basis are generally counted on a unique premises basis. For example, a subscriber with one or more set-top boxes that receives our video service in one premises is generally counted as just one RGU.

Additional General Notes

Most of our operations provide telephony, broadband internet, mobile data, video or other B2B services. Certain of our B2B service revenue is derived from SOHO customers that pay a premium price to receive enhanced service levels along with video, internet or telephony services that are the same or similar to the mass marketed products offered to our residential subscribers. All mass marketed products provided to SOHO customers, whether or not accompanied by enhanced service levels and/or premium prices, are included in the respective RGU and customer counts of our operations, with only those services provided at premium prices considered to be “SOHO RGUs” or “SOHO customers.” To the extent our existing customers upgrade from a residential product offering to a SOHO product offering, the number of SOHO RGUs and SOHO customers will increase, but there is no impact to our total RGU or customer counts. With the exception of our B2B SOHO customers, we generally do not count customers of B2B services as customers or RGUs for external reporting purposes.

Certain of our residential and commercial RGUs are counted on an EBU basis, including residential multiple dwelling units and commercial establishments, such as bars, hotels, and hospitals, in Puerto Rico. Our EBUs are generally calculated by dividing the bulk price charged to accounts in an area by the most prevalent price charged to non-bulk residential customers in that market for the comparable tier of service. As such, we may experience variances in our EBU counts solely as a result of changes in rates.

While we take appropriate steps to ensure that subscriber and homes passed statistics are presented on a consistent and accurate basis at any given balance sheet date, the variability from country to country in (i) the nature and pricing of products and services, (ii) the distribution platform, (iii) billing systems, (iv) bad debt collection experience and (v) other factors add complexity to the subscriber and homes passed counting process. We periodically review our subscriber and homes passed counting policies and underlying systems to improve the accuracy and consistency of the data reported on a prospective basis. Accordingly, we may from time to time make appropriate adjustments to our subscriber and homes passed statistics based on those reviews.

Non-GAAP Reconciliations

We include certain financial measures in this press release that are considered non-GAAP measures, including (i) Adjusted OIBDA and Adjusted OIBDA Margin, each on a consolidated basis, (ii) Adjusted Free Cash Flow, (iii) rebased revenue and rebased Adjusted OIBDA growth rates, (iv) consolidated leverage ratios, and (v) Adjusted OIBDA less property and equipment additions on a consolidated basis. The following sections set forth reconciliations of the nearest GAAP measure to our non-GAAP measures, as well as information on how and why management of the Company believes such information is useful to an investor.

Adjusted OIBDA

On a consolidated basis, Adjusted OIBDA is a non-U.S. GAAP measure. Adjusted OIBDA is the primary measure used by our CODM, our Chief Executive Officer, to evaluate segment operating performance. Adjusted OIBDA is also a key factor that is used by our internal decision makers to determine how to allocate resources to segments. 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. We believe our Adjusted OIBDA measure is useful to investors because it is one of the bases for comparing our performance with the performance of other companies in the same or similar industries, although our measure may not be directly comparable to similar measures used by other public companies. Adjusted OIBDA should be viewed as a measure of operating performance that is a supplement to, and not a substitute for, operating income or loss, net earnings or loss and other U.S. GAAP measures of income or loss.

Adjusted OIBDA Less Property and Equipment Additions

We define Adjusted OIBDA less P&E Additions, which is a non-GAAP measure, as Adjusted OIBDA less P&E Additions on an accrual basis. Adjusted OIBDA less P&E Additions is a meaningful measure because it provides (i) a transparent view of Adjusted OIBDA that remains after our capital spend, which we believe is important to take into account when evaluating our overall performance and (ii) a comparable view of our performance relative to other telecommunications companies. Our Adjusted OIBDA less P&E Additions measure may differ from how other companies define and apply their definition of similar measures. Adjusted OIBDA less P&E Additions should be viewed as a measure of operating performance that is a supplement to, and not substitute for, U.S. GAAP Measure of income included in our condensed consolidated statement of operations.

A reconciliation of our operating income or loss to total Adjusted OIBDA, and Adjusted OIBDA less property and equipment additions is presented in the following table:

Adjusted Free Cash Flow Definition and Reconciliation

We define Adjusted Free Cash Flow (Adjusted FCF), 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, (ii) expenses financed by an intermediary, and (iii) proceeds received in connection with handset receivables securitization, less (a) capital expenditures, net, (b) principal payments on amounts financed by vendors and intermediaries, (c) principal payments on finance leases, (d) repayments made associated with a handset receivables securitization, and (e) distributions to noncontrolling interest owners. We believe that our presentation of Adjusted FCF 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 FCF 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 FCF as a supplement to, and not a substitute for, U.S. GAAP measures of liquidity included in our consolidated statements of cash flows.

The following table provides the reconciliation of our net cash provided by operating activities to Adjusted FCF for the indicated period:

  1. For purposes of our consolidated statements of cash flows, expenses financed by an intermediary, including value-added taxes, are treated as operating cash outflows and financing cash inflows when the expenses are incurred. When we pay the financing intermediary, we record financing cash outflows in our consolidated statements of cash flows. For purposes of our Adjusted FCF definition, we add back the operating cash outflows when these financed expenses are incurred and deduct the financing cash outflows when we pay the financing intermediary.
 

Rebase Information

Rebase growth rates are a non-GAAP measure. For purposes of calculating rebased growth rates on a comparable basis for all businesses that we owned during the current year, we have adjusted our historical revenue and Adjusted OIBDA to include or exclude the pre-acquisition amounts of acquired, disposed or transferred businesses, as applicable, to the same extent they are included in the current year. The businesses that were acquired or disposed of impacting the comparative periods are as follows:

  1. LPR Acquisition (acquisition of spectrum and prepaid subscribers in Puerto Rico and USVI from EchoStar), which was completed on September 3, 2024; and
  2. C&W Panama DTH, which was shutdown on January 15, 2025.

In addition, we reflect the translation of our rebased amounts for the prior-year periods at the applicable average foreign currency exchange rates that were used to translate our results for the corresponding current-year period.

We have reflected the revenue and Adjusted OIBDA of the acquired entities in our prior-year rebased amounts based on what we believe to be the most reliable information that is currently available to us (in the case of the LPR Acquisition, an estimated carve-out of revenue and Adjusted OIBDA associated with the acquired business), as adjusted for the estimated effects of (a) any significant differences between U.S. GAAP and local generally accepted accounting principles, (b) any significant effects of acquisition accounting adjustments, (c) any significant differences between our accounting policies and those of the acquired entities and (d) other items we deem appropriate. We do not adjust pre-acquisition periods to eliminate nonrecurring items or to give retroactive effect to any changes in estimates that might be implemented during post-acquisition periods. As we did not own or operate the acquired entities during the pre-acquisition periods, no assurance can be given that we have identified all adjustments necessary to present their revenue and Adjusted OIBDA on a basis that is comparable to the corresponding post-acquisition amounts that are included in our historical results or that the pre-acquisition financial statements we have relied upon do not contain undetected errors. In addition, the rebased growth percentages are not necessarily indicative of the revenue and Adjusted OIBDA that would have occurred if this transaction had occurred on the date assumed for purposes of calculating our rebased amounts or the revenue and Adjusted OIBDA that will occur in the future. The rebased growth percentages have been presented as a basis for assessing growth rates on a comparable basis and should be viewed as measures of operating performance that are a supplement to, and not a substitute for, U.S. GAAP reported growth rates.

The following tables provide the aforementioned adjustments made to the revenue and Adjusted OIBDA amounts for the periods indicated, to derive our rebased growth rates. Due to rounding, certain rebased growth rate percentages may not recalculate.

In the tables set forth below:

  • reported percentage changes are calculated as current period measure, as applicable, less prior-period measure divided by prior-period measure; and
  • rebased percentage changes are calculated as current period measure, as applicable, less rebased prior-period measure divided by rebased prior-period measure.

The following tables set forth the reconciliation from reported revenue to rebased revenue and related change calculations.

Non-GAAP Reconciliation for Consolidated Leverage Ratios

We have set forth below our consolidated leverage and net leverage ratios. Our consolidated leverage and net leverage ratios (Consolidated Leverage Ratios), each a non-GAAP measure, are defined as (i) the principal amount of debt and finance lease obligations less cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash related to debt divided by (ii) last two quarters of annualized Adjusted OIBDA. We generally use Adjusted OIBDA for the last two quarters annualized when calculating our Consolidated Leverage Ratios to maintain as much consistency as possible with the calculations established by our debt covenants included in the credit facilities or bond indentures for our respective borrowing groups, which are predominantly determined on a last two quarters annualized basis. For purposes of these calculations, adjusted total debt and finance lease obligations is measured using swapped foreign currency rates. We believe our consolidated leverage and net leverage ratios are useful because they allow our investors to consider the aggregate leverage on the business inclusive of any leverage at the Liberty Latin America level, not just at each of our operations. Investors should view consolidated leverage and net leverage ratios as supplements to, and not substitutes for, the ratios calculated based upon measures presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Reconciliations of the numerator and denominator used to calculate the consolidated leverage and net leverage ratios as of September 30, 2025 and June 30, 2025 are set forth below:

  1. Amount relates to restricted cash at Liberty Puerto Rico that serves as collateral against certain letters of credit associated with the funding received from the FCC to continue to expand and improve our fixed network in Puerto Rico.
  2. Operating income or loss is the closest U.S. GAAP measure to Adjusted OIBDA, as discussed in Adjusted OIBDA above. Accordingly, we have presented consolidated debt and finance lease obligations to operating income (loss) and consolidated net debt and finance lease obligations to operating income (loss) as the most directly comparable financial ratios to our non-GAAP consolidated leverage and consolidated net leverage ratios.
  3. Adjusted OIBDA is a non-GAAP measure. See Adjusted OIBDA above for reconciliation of Adjusted OIBDA to the nearest U.S. GAAP measure for the three months ended September 30, 2025. A reconciliation of our operating income (loss) to Adjusted OIBDA for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and March 31, 2025 is presented in the following table:

Non-GAAP Reconciliations for Our Borrowing Groups

The financial statements of each of our borrowing groups are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We include certain financial measures for our C&W, Liberty Puerto Rico and Liberty Costa Rica borrowing groups in this press release that are considered non-GAAP measures, including: (i) Adjusted OIBDA; (ii) Adjusted OIBDA Margin; (iii) Proportionate Adjusted OIBDA, (iv) rebased revenue and (v) rebased Adjusted OIBDA.

Adjusted OIBDA for our borrowing groups is defined as operating income or loss before share-based compensation and other Employee Incentive Plan-related expense, depreciation and amortization, related-party fees and allocations, provisions and provision releases related to significant litigation and impairment, restructuring and other operating items. Proportionate Adjusted OIBDA is defined as Adjusted OIBDA less the noncontrolling interests' share of Adjusted OIBDA. We believe these measures at the borrowing group level are useful to investors because they are one of the bases for comparing our performance with the performance of other companies in the same or similar industries, although our measures may not be directly comparable to similar measures used by other public companies. These measures should be viewed as measures of operating performance that are a supplement to, and not a substitute for, operating income or loss, net earnings or loss and other U.S. GAAP measures of income.

A reconciliation of C&W's operating income to Adjusted OIBDA and Proportionate Adjusted OIBDA is presented in the following table:
