WideOpenWest Finance LLC received an affirmation of its 'B-' rating on April 27, 2026, with analysts anticipating negative free operating cash flow over the next few years due to high capital expenditure for fiber builds and network upgrades. DigitalBridge Investments LLC and Crestview Partners are expected to support the company with capital infusions if it successfully executes its investment strategy. This follows the company's January 7, 2026, appointment of Patrick Bratton as Chief Financial Officer. In this role, Bratton oversees the Finance, Accounting, Tax, Financial Planning Analysis, Business Partnership, and Procurement teams. Earlier, on January 6, 2026, WideOpenWest Inc. appointed Frank van der Post as Chief Executive Officer, succeeding Teresa Elder, who retired after an eight-year tenure.
