Certain of Starz&#8217;s affiliation agreements require Starz to provide marketing support to the distributor based upon certain criteria as stipulated in the agreements. Marketing support includes cooperative advertising and marketing efforts between Starz and its distributors such as cross channel, direct mail and point of sale incentives. Marketing support is recorded as an expense and not a reduction of revenue when Starz has received a direct benefit and the fair value of such benefit is determinable.</font></div></div>

In addition to these reclassification adjustments, the Company has made the following reclassifications to the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2016 to conform to the current year presentation: (i) reclassified </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$21 million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> of product inventory from investment in film and television programs to other current assets; (ii) reclassified </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$222 million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> of long-term accounts receivable to other non-current assets; (iii) reclassified </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$190 million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> of short-term tax credits receivable to other current assets and </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$67 million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> of long-term tax credits receivable to other non-current assets; (iv) reclassified </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$11 million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> of intangible assets from other assets to the new separate line item for intangible assets; (v) reclassified the carrying value of its previous senior revolving credit facility (</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$156 million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">), former </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">5.25%</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> senior notes (</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$221 million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">), former term loan (</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$388 million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">) and convertible senior subordinated notes (</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$100 million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">) into the new separate line item for debt (current and non-current) on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet.</font></div></div>

The most significant estimates made by management in the preparation of the financial statements relate to ultimate revenue and costs used for the amortization of investment in films and television programs; the allocations made in connection with the amortization of program rights; estimates of sales returns and other allowances and provisions for doubtful accounts; fair value of equity-based compensation; fair value of assets and liabilities for allocation of the purchase price of companies acquired; income taxes including the assessment of valuation allowances for deferred tax assets; accruals for contingent liabilities; and impairment assessments for investment in films and television programs, property and equipment, equity investments, goodwill and intangible assets. Actual results could differ from such estimates.</font></div></div>
