In April 2018, Altice Europe transferred its ownership of i24 US and i24 Europe ('i24NEWS"), Altice Europe's 24/7 international news and current affairs channels to the Company for minimal consideration (the "i24NEWS Acquisition"). As the acquisition was a combination of businesses under common control, the Company combined the results of operations and related assets and liabilities of i24NEWS as of April 1, 2018. Operating results for periods prior to April 1, 2018 and the balance sheet as of December 31, 2017 have not been revised to reflect the combination of i24NEWS as the impact was deemed immaterial.

The Company's equity in the net losses of i24NEWS, prior to April 1, 2018, for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 of $1,130 were recorded using the equity method and reflected in other expense, net in the Company's consolidated statements of operations.
