Concerned Shareholders of WOW issues the following letter to shareholders of WOW and WOW Management regarding the Unsolicited Non-Binding Proposal

AUSTIN, Texas, Jan. 23, 2025 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — Concerned Shareholders of WOW today issued the following letter to the management of WOW. More details can be found on its website (WowShareholders.com):

To the Management and Board of Directors of WideOpenWest, Inc. (WOW),

We, as concerned stakeholders and shareholders of WideOpenWest, are writing to formally request an update regarding the unsolicited non-binding preliminary proposal submitted on May 3, 2024, by DigitalBridge Investments, LLC and Crestview Partners. This proposal, offering $4.80 per share in cash for all outstanding shares not currently owned by Crestview, has significant implications for the future of WOW! and its shareholders.

Image caption: Concerned Shareholders of WOW.

It has been over eight months since this proposal was announced, during which time your board established a special committee to evaluate the offer.

Despite this, there has been no substantive communication or transparency regarding the progress or outcome of these deliberations.

Given the importance of this matter to shareholders and the broader market, we believe it is imperative for WOW to provide clarity on the following points:

Status of the Special Committee’s Evaluation: What is the current status of the special committee’s review of the proposal? Have any decisions or recommendations been made?

Fairness and Valuation: How does the board assess the $4.80 per share offer in light of WOW’s intrinsic value and recent financial performance? Notably, some shareholders have publicly criticized this valuation as inadequate, suggesting a fair value above $10 per share.

Strategic Alternatives: Has the board considered other strategic options beyond accepting or rejecting this proposal? For instance, are there plans to explore alternative buyers or partnerships that could maximize shareholder value?

Transparency and Shareholder Engagement: Why has there been limited communication with shareholders regarding this critical proposal? What steps will WOW take to ensure greater transparency moving forward?

As shareholders, we have a vested interest in ensuring that any decision regarding this proposal is made transparently and in alignment with maximizing shareholder value. The lack of updates creates uncertainty and undermines confidence in WOW’s leadership.

We urge you to address these concerns promptly by providing a comprehensive update on the status of this proposal and its evaluation.

We also request that you outline a clear timeline for further disclosures to ensure that all stakeholders are kept informed.

If we do not receive a satisfactory response within a reasonable timeframe, we will have no choice but to escalate our efforts by initiating a proxy campaign aimed at replacing members of the Board of Directors who fail to act in the best interests of shareholders.

This step is not taken lightly but reflects our commitment to ensuring accountability and protecting shareholder value.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

We look forward to your prompt response.

Sara Konstantine
On behalf of Concerned Shareholders of WOW

*This letter reflects our collective commitment to transparency, accountability, and the best interests of all WOW stakeholders*

Austin ‘Wiggin’ Out’ Event Raises Awareness and Dollars to Help Fight Alzheimer’s Disease

AUSTIN, Texas, Jan. 20, 2016 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Wearing smiles and purple wigs, a gathering of normally serious professionals mingled festively in "Wiggin' Out," a fundraising event held at Maggie Mae's in Austin, Texas, Saturday evening, January 16. "We achieved two objectives," says Denise Gott, CEO of ACSIA Partners, hosts of the event. "First, we raised some money to help fight Alzheimer's. And second, we raised awareness of the growing need for long-term care as the disease progresses."

The event raised $19,000, which will be donated to the Alzheimer's Association. The contributions were from participating insurance companies as well as ACSIA Partners, company agents, and the CEO.

The mind-robbing disease is a growing threat. Together with other forms of dementia, Alzheimer's afflicts one in nine American's age 65 and older; and one in three age 85 and older. At present it can't be prevented, cured, or even slowed, the association reports. So casualties could swell in the years ahead. From 2000 to 2013, death attributed to Alzheimer's increased 71 percent.

"At ACSIA Partners we're glad to support the vital work of finding a cure for Alzheimer's," says Gott. "We're also glad to make a difference for families right now. We can't do anything about the disease itself, other than donate, but we can help families plan for associated long-term care services, which can be substantial."

"As Alzheimer's progresses, people may forget to eat, or have trouble bathing or toileting," Gott explains. "Someone will have to help them, either a family member or paid professional. Planning for this can really help, personally as well as financially."

"Wiggin' Out" was attended by Hollywood actors, 150-plus company agents, and assorted guests. The event was part of a three-day ACSIA Partners conference that included keynotes by the co-producers of "It Snows All the Time" (a feature film about Alzheimer's), and breakout sessions on long-term care planning.

Co-producers Brett Cullen and Erich Hover also play lead roles in the film. Cullen is best known for starring roles in "Apollo 13," "The Dark Knight Rises," "42" and "The Guilt Trip" with Barbra Streisand. Hover had his first movie break acting alongside Brad Pitt and Philip Seymour Hoffman in "Moneyball." His experience with Alzheimer's in his family motivated him to co-create "It Snows All the Time."

Pictures and videos from the event are available at https://www.acsiapartners.com/wiggin-out-for-alzheimers/.

About ACSIA Partners LLC:

ACSIA Partners LLC -- https://www.acsiapartners.com/ -- is one of America's largest and most experienced long-term care insurance agencies serving all states. The company is also a co-founder and sponsor of the "3in4 Need More" campaign, which encourages Americans to form a long-term care plan.

‘Oil and Gas and the Texas Railroad Commission: Lessons for Regulating a Free Society’ Explores Commission’s Role in Texas

AUSTIN, Texas, Nov. 17, 2015 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Dr. Mark A. Miller has published "Oil & Gas and the Texas Railroad Commission: Lessons for Regulating a Free Society" (ISBN: 978-1518810398), a new book that examines the complexities and impact of the regulatory actions of the Texas Railroad Commission on matters related to the oil and gas industry.

"Aside from the cowboy, nothing is more iconic to Texas than pump jacks and oil derricks," said author Mark Miller. "Yet fewer than five percent of Texas voters are aware that for a hundred years, the Texas Railroad Commission has been the primary regulator of the State's oil and gas industry. The workings of this important agency, with its misleading name, manage to escape widespread public attention."

The book was written to equip voters with a better understanding of matters related to an industry vital to the Texas economy. "With greater insight into the State agency tasked with protecting property rights, public safety, and the environment, Texas voters will likely pay closer attention to what their Commissioners are doing," said Miller, "and hold them accountable to their responsibilities."

Readers of the book will find general information on oil and gas, as well as more detailed information on production methods such as fracking. Dr. Miller also outlines his recommendations for changing regulatory policy and the Texas Railroad Commission.

"In order to serve all Texans, the Commission should move to become a better protector of the rights of surface owners, commercial entities, and mineral owners," said Miller. "In the book, I stress that public trust can only be ensured by a more transparent Commission and by abolishing the Commission's role as an oil and gas industry champion. I suggest reforms that include limiting the Commission's purview to critical activities and creating a sunset review policy for rules and regulations."

About Mark Miller:

Dr. Mark Miller has enjoyed a long and varied career in the oil and gas industry - petroleum engineer, University of Texas faculty member, worldwide petroleum engineering consultant, and small business owner. He is currently retired and does occasional consulting. Mark was the 2014 Libertarian Party nominee for Texas Railroad Commissioner and is running again in 2016.

Mark Miller Announces Candidacy for Texas Railroad Commissioner

AUSTIN, Texas, Sept. 2, 2015 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Mark Miller announced today that he is seeking the Libertarian Party of Texas' nomination for Texas Railroad Commissioner in 2016.

Dr. Miller was the 2014 Libertarian nominee for Texas Railroad Commissioner and is again running for office because he believes it is imperative for the Texas Railroad Commission to serve all Texans, not just the oil and gas industry.

"As Commissioner, I promise to transform the agency by bringing increased transparency and accountability, a culture of simplification and regular review, and a new focus on surface property rights," says Miller.

The only other announced candidate for the post is the incumbent Commission Chairman, Mr. David Porter. "During Commissioner Porter's tenure, the Railroad Commission was embroiled in many controversies surrounding oil and gas development in Texas," notes Miller. "Among them were appropriate regulations for wastewater wells that trigger earthquakes and eminent domain abuse by common carrier pipelines. Sadly, regulations promulgated by the Commission under Porter's watch turned out to be nothing more than window-dressing, resulting in additional bureaucratic busy-work, but with no substantive positive effects on protecting the Texas public. Even more sadly, this appears to be the usual state of affairs at the most important of state agencies."

There will be three public presentations of some of Dr. Miller's thoughts on the Railroad Commission in the Dallas/Fort Worth area September 2 - 8, 2015 (www.miller4tx.com/events).

"As I look at Commissioner Porter's issues for the 2016 campaign, where are the calls to increase transparency by changing the Commission's name and eliminating openly-admitted crony capitalism?" questions Miller. "Where are the calls for regulatory reform that are needed for a stodgy 100+ year-old agency? And, where are the calls to better protect personal liberties by putting surface property rights on a more equal footing with mineral rights?"

"I challenge all candidates for Texas Railroad Commissioner to engage in a series of serious and spirited public debates over important issues facing the Railroad Commission," says Miller.

Texas Railroad Commissioner is the only State executive position on the November 2016 ballot. "Texas voters should insist on open and robust public discussions befitting this immensely important position and befitting our great state," notes Miller.

About Mark Miller:

Dr. Mark A. Miller, PE, is a native-born and long-time resident of Texas. Dr. Miller began a career in the oil and gas industry as a petroleum engineer. Later, he received a PhD from Stanford University and went on to teach petroleum engineering at the University of Texas at Austin for 18 years. After leaving UT, Dr. Miller established a worldwide petroleum engineering consulting practice and was founder and CEO/CTO of a small company that provided software to the oil and gas industry. Dr. Miller was the Libertarian Party's 2014 nominee for Texas Railroad Commissioner.
