media/entertainmnet conference going on.

Some Analyst insights

**The views expressed are those of the macro department and do not
necessarily coincide with those of the Fundamental analyst.
For full investment opinion definitions, see footnotes.
Investment Highlights:

ú No change to outlook in presentation at ML
Media/Entertainment conference.

ú Theme of speech was "if you see it, you buy
it", "if you buy it, you keep it". Churn
remains remarkably low at 4%.

ú Subscriber growth remains robust but
continues to be impaired by installation
difficulties; retail cable modems and digital set
top boxes to provide relief.

ú Speculation remains regarding future combo
with Roadrunner, a combo which we think
would seal an already wonderful fate.

ú Shares continue to trade on speculation
regarding incremental growth from digital set
top boxes, prospects for IP telephony, etc.
Fundamental Highlights:

ú Expect subscriber count of 210-215k by 9/30,
down modestly from original expectations but
in line with internal forecasts. Year end
estimated 300-325k.

ú Revenues of $12-$13MM still seems rational,
up from $9.2MM in Q2 & $1.9MM in Q3 '97.

ú Homes passed of about 10.5MM by quarter
end and roundly 13MM plus at year end.

I hate to admit it, but if the judicial committee allows the clinton grand jury tape to be viewed by the public, it could give our athm some publicity. @home is prepared to release it immediately to the subscribers. With broad band, vid streaming capabilities, viewers can access the whole thing over the net!!
Do you think the stock action today reflects this?? Or is there something bigger cooking?
