HBO accounts for 35% of the valuation of Time Warner Inc (NASDAQ: TWX). HBO drives majority of its revenues from US subscribers. It charges more than $7 per month as affiliate fee per subscriber which is the highest among all channels. We believe the affiliation fee will grow at an average rate of 3% over each year.  However, the growth rate of number of U.S. subscribers is highly volatile, considering the large amount of cord-cutting in U.S. As per our current estimates, the sensitivity of TWX stock price to 1% change in growth rate of number of U.S. subscribers is 1%.
