(1)      Cost of revenue consists primarily of the costs of online media acquired from third-party publishers. Media cost is classified as cost of revenue in the period in which the corresponding revenue is recognized.

(2)      Operating expenses include direct operating and selling, general and administrative expenses. Included in operating expenses are $0.3 million of non-cash stock-based compensation for each of the three-month periods ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, and $0.5 million and $0.6 million of non-cash stock-based compensation for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Operating expenses do not include corporate expenses, foreign currency (gain) loss, depreciation and amortization, impairment charge, gain (loss) on sale of assets, gain (loss) on debt extinguishment and other income (loss).

(3)      Corporate expenses include $0.8 million and $0.6 million of non-cash stock-based compensation for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and $1.5 million and $1.3 million of non-cash stock-based compensation for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

(4)      Consolidated adjusted EBITDA means net income (loss) plus gain (loss) on sale of assets, depreciation and amortization, non-cash impairment charge, non-cash stock-based compensation included in operating and corporate expenses, net interest expense, other income (loss), gain (loss) on debt extinguishment, income tax (expense) benefit, equity in net income (loss) of nonconsolidated affiliate, non-cash losses and syndication programming amortization less syndication programming payments. We use the term consolidated adjusted EBITDA because that measure is defined in our credit facility and does not include gain (loss) on sale of assets, depreciation and amortization, non-cash impairment charge, non-cash stock-based compensation, net interest expense, other income (loss), gain (loss) on debt extinguishment, income tax (expense) benefit, equity in net income (loss) of nonconsolidated affiliate, non-cash losses and syndication programming amortization and does include syndication programming payments. While many in the financial community and we consider consolidated adjusted EBITDA to be important, it should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for or superior to, other measures of liquidity and financial performance prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, such as cash flows from operating activities, operating income and net income. As consolidated adjusted EBITDA excludes non-cash gain (loss) on sale of assets, non-cash depreciation and amortization, non-cash impairment charge, non-cash stock-based compensation expense, net interest expense, other income (loss), gain (loss) on debt extinguishment, income tax (expense) benefit, equity in net income (loss) of nonconsolidated affiliate, non-cash losses and syndication programming amortization and includes syndication programming payments, consolidated adjusted EBITDA has certain limitations because it excludes and includes several important non-cash financial line items. Therefore, we consider both non-GAAP and GAAP measures when evaluating our business. Consolidated adjusted EBITDA is also used to make executive compensation decisions.

(5)      Free cash flow is defined as consolidated adjusted EBITDA less cash paid for income taxes, net interest expense, and capital expenditures. Net interest expense is defined as interest expense, less non-cash interest expense relating to amortization of debt finance costs, and less interest income.

Commenting on the Company's earnings results, Walter F. Ulloa, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, "During the second quarter, we achieved revenue growth driven by increases in our digital media segment attributable to the acquisition of Headway.  This growth in our digital media segment offset decreases in our radio segment and television segment, which were affected by the loss of political advertising revenue compared to 2016.  We continued to build our digital footprint and, looking ahead, we remain well positioned to build on our success in further attracting Latino audiences, expanding our advertiser base and monetizing our reach to the benefit of our shareholders."

Quarterly Cash Dividend

The Company announced today that its Board of Directors has approved a quarterly cash dividend to shareholders of $0.05 per share of the Company's Class A, Class B and Class U common stock, in an aggregate amount of approximately $4.5 million, which represents an increase from the prior quarter's dividend, which was $0.03125 per share. The quarterly dividend will be payable on September 29, 2017 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on September 14, 2017, and the common stock will trade ex-dividend on September 13, 2017. As previously announced, the Company currently anticipates that future cash dividends will be paid on a quarterly basis; however, any decision to pay future cash dividends will be subject to approval by the Board.

Share Repurchase Program

On July 13, 2017, the Board of Directors approved the repurchase of up to $15 million of the Company's common stock.  Under the new share repurchase program, the Company is authorized to purchase shares from time to time through open market purchases or negotiated purchases, subject to market conditions and other factors.  On the same date, the Board terminated the Company's previous share repurchase program of up to $20 million of the Company's common stock.

Receives Proceeds from FCC Auction for Broadcast Spectrum

On July 21, 2017, the Company received proceeds of $263.6 million related to its participation in the Federal Communications Commission (the "FCC") auction for broadcast spectrum. The proceeds reflect the FCC's acceptance of one or more bids placed by the Company during the auction to modify and/or relinquish spectrum usage rights for certain of the Company's television stations. The Company does not expect that the modification and/or relinquishment of the spectrum usage rights will result in material changes in the operations or results of the Company. The proceeds of the auction were deposited into the account of a "qualified intermediary" to comply with Internal Revenue Code Section 1031 requirements to execute a like-kind exchange.

Acquisition of NBC Affiliate KMIR-TV and MyNetworkTV Affiliate KPSE-LD Serving Palm Springs, California

On July 20, 2017, the Company entered into an agreement with OTA Broadcasting (PSP), LLC to acquire television stations KMIR-TV, the local NBC affiliate, and KPSE-LD, the local MyNetworkTV affiliate, serving the Palm Springs, California area, for an aggregate of $21 million.  The transaction, which is subject to customary closing conditions, including the prior consent of the FCC, is currently expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2017.

Amendment of Bank Credit Facility

The Company has entered into an amendment to its bank credit facility.  The amendment increases the amount of certain restricted payments that the Company can make under the terms of the credit facility.  Additional details regarding the amendment are provided in the company's Current Report on Form 8-K dated August 2, 2017, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Net revenue increased to $70.5 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2017 from $64.8 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2016, an increase of $5.7 million. Of the overall increase, $9.5 million was attributable to our digital segment and was primarily due to the acquisition of Headway during the second quarter of 2017, which did not contribute to net revenue in prior periods. The overall increase was partially offset by a decrease in our radio segment of $2.4 million due primarily to decreases in local and national advertising revenue, and a decrease in political advertising revenue, which was not material in 2017, and a decrease in our television segment of $1.4 million due primarily to a decrease in local revenue and a decrease in political advertising revenue, which was not material in 2017.

Cost of revenue, which we incur in our digital segment, increased to $8.8 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2017 from $2.4 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2016, an increase of $6.4 million, primarily due to the acquisition of Headway during the second quarter of 2017, which did not contribute to cost of revenue in prior periods.

Operating expenses increased to $41.9 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2017 from $39.9 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2016, an increase of $2.0 million. Of the overall increase, $2.2 million was attributable to our digital segment and was primarily due to the acquisition of Headway during the second quarter of 2017, which did not contribute to operating expenses in prior periods. The overall increase was partially offset by a decrease in expenses associated with the decrease in advertising revenue, a decrease in expense for ratings services, a decrease in event expense and a decrease in bad debt expense.

Corporate expenses increased to $5.6 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2017 from $5.3 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2016, an increase of $0.3 million. The increase was primarily due to an increase in salary expense and non-cash stock-based compensation expense.

Net revenue increased to $128.0 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2017 from $122.9 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2016, an increase of $5.1 million. Of the overall increase, $9.0 million was attributable to our digital segment and was primarily due to the acquisition of Headway during the second quarter of 2017, which did not contribute to net revenue in prior periods. The overall increase was partially offset by a decrease in our radio segment of $3.5 million due primarily to decreases in local and national advertising revenue, and a decrease in political advertising revenue, which was not material in 2017, and a decrease in our television segment of $0.3 million due primarily to a decrease in local revenue and a decrease in political advertising revenue, which was not material in 2017, partially offset by an increase in national advertising revenue and an increase in retransmission consent revenue.

Cost of revenue, which we incur in our digital segment, increased to $10.5 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2017 from $4.2 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2016, an increase of $6.3 million, primarily due to the acquisition of Headway during the second quarter of 2017, which did not contribute to cost of revenue in prior periods.

Operating expenses increased to $80.2 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2017 from $78.9 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2016, an increase of $1.3 million. Of the overall increase, $1.9 million was attributable to our digital segment and was primarily due to the acquisition of Headway during the second quarter of 2017, which did not contribute to operating expenses in prior periods. The overall increase was partially offset by a decrease in expenses associated with the decrease in advertising revenue, a decrease in expense for ratings services, a decrease in event expense and a decrease in bad debt expense.

Corporate expenses increased to $11.5 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2017 from $10.9 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2016, an increase of $0.6 million. The increase was primarily due to legal and financial due diligence costs related to the Headway acquisition and non-cash stock-based compensation expense.
