                         HEFTEL BROADCASTING CORPORATION

                                     PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

GENERAL

         Heftel Broadcasting Corporation (the "Company") was incorporated in
1992 and is the successor by merger to Heftel Broadcasting Corporation, a Hawaii
corporation, which was formed in 1974. The Company is the largest Spanish
language radio broadcasting company in the United States and currently owns and
programs 17 radio stations, 16 of which are located in five of the ten largest
Hispanic markets in the United States, including Los Angeles, New York, Miami,
Chicago, and Dallas/Ft. Worth. The Company has agreed to acquire Tichenor Media
System, Inc. ("Tichenor"), the third largest Spanish language radio broadcasting
company in the United States. Tichenor owns or programs 20 radio stations which
serve six of the ten largest Hispanic markets in the United States, including
San Francisco/San Jose, Chicago, Houston, San Antonio,
McAllen/Brownsville/Harlingen and El Paso. Following the Tichenor acquisition,
the Company will own or program 37 radio stations in 11 markets, including
stations in each of the top ten Hispanic markets in the United States. See
"Recent Developments -- Tichenor Merger."

         The Company's strategy is to own and program top performing radio
stations, principally in the largest Spanish language radio markets in the
United States. The top ten Hispanic markets account for approximately 17.2
million Hispanics, representing approximately 63% of the total Hispanic
population in the United States. Upon completion of the Tichenor acquisition,
the Company will have the largest Spanish language radio station combination, as
measured by audience and revenue share, in eight of the top ten Hispanic
markets. Additionally, the Company will have the highest rated radio station in
any format in four of the top ten Hispanic markets.

         The Company intends to acquire or develop additional Spanish language
radio stations in the leading Hispanic markets. When evaluating a potential
acquisition, the Company considers the following factors: (i) the ability to
generate satisfactory rates of return on its investment, (ii) the ability to
increase operating cash flow at the station, (iii) the strategic importance of
the station to the Company's overall business objectives, (iv) the size and
projected rates of growth of the market's broadcasting revenues, Hispanic
population and consumer spending and (v) the number of competitive stations in
the market.

         The Company believes Spanish language broadcasting has significant
growth potential for the following reasons:

         -    The Hispanic population is the fastest growing population segment
              in the United States and is expected to grow from an estimated
              27.2 million (approximately 10.3% of the total United States
              population) at the end of 1995 to an estimated 30.7 million
              (approximately 11.3% of the total United States population) by the
              year 2000. These estimates imply a growth rate of approximately
              three times the expected growth rate for the total United States
              population during the same period.

         -    Advertisers have substantially increased their use of Spanish
              language media in recent years. Total advertising revenues from
              advertising in Spanish language media rose from $166 million in
              1983 to $1.06 billion in 1995. This represents a compound annual
              growth rate of 16.7%, which is more than double the growth rate of
              total advertising over the same period. Although Hispanic
              consumers will spend an estimated $340 billion in 1997, or 6.5% of
              the total consumer spending 



                                        3
<PAGE>   4


              in the United States, Spanish language advertising currently
              represents less than 0.7% of the total advertising expenditures.

         -    Advertisers have begun to target Hispanic households because they
              are younger and spend a greater percentage of their household
              income on consumer products than non-Hispanic households. Hispanic
              households in the United States average 3.5 persons, compared to
              an average of 2.5 persons for non-Hispanic households. In
              addition, 82% of Hispanic households in the United States are
              family units, compared to 71% of all households in the United
              States. During the 1990's, one in four new households in the
              United States is expected to be headed by a person of Hispanic
              origin.

         -    Hispanics have maintained strong social and cultural ties to their
              countries of origin, particularly in their continued use of the
              Spanish language. An estimated 78% of Hispanics speak at least
              some Spanish and approximately 40% speak it exclusively. Spanish
              is expected to continue to be the language of preference for
              Hispanics.

         -    The number of Spanish language media outlets is disproportionately
              lower than the number of similar English language outlets. In the
              radio segment, there are currently approximately 400 Spanish 
              language commercial stations, which constitute only approximately
              4% of all commercial radio stations in the United States, although
              the Hispanic population comprises approximately 10.3% of the 
              United States population.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

Secondary Public Stock Offering

         On October 18, 1996, the Company filed a Registration Statement on Form
S-3 with the Securities and Exchange Commission to register the sale of up to 
4,025,000 shares of its Class A Common Stock in a secondary public offering. The
net proceeds from this stock offering will be used to repay outstanding debt
under the Company's existing credit agreement. The registration statement has
not yet been declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Clear Channel Tender Offer

         Clear Channel Communications, Inc. (together with its wholly owned
subsidiaries "Clear Channel") is a diversified publicly held broadcasting
company that currently owns or programs 99 radio stations and 18 television
stations in 33 markets. On August 5, 1996, Clear Channel completed a tender
offer and a related private purchase of stock from existing stockholders of the
Company (collectively, the "Tender Offer"). As a result of the Tender Offer,
Clear Channel currently owns approximately 63% of the outstanding Class A Common
Stock of the Company.

         Concurrent with completion of the Tender Offer, Mr. Cecil Heftel,
former Chairman and Co-Chief Executive Officer, and Mr. Carl Parmer, former
Co-Chief Executive Officer and President, each entered into agreements not to
compete and employment settlement agreements (each, a "Settlement Agreement")
with the Company. Pursuant to their respective Settlement Agreement, the
employment by the Company of Mr. Heftel and Mr. Parmer terminated immediately
following the purchase of their respective shares pursuant to the Tender Offer.
An aggregate of approximately $25.8 million was paid to Messrs. Heftel and
Parmer upon closing of the Tender Offer in exchange for releases from any claims
resulting from termination of their respective employment agreements with the
Company and as compensation for their respective agreements not to compete with
the Company in certain specified markets for a period of five years from the
date of closing of the Tender 


                                        4

Offer. In connection with the Tender Offer, the Company's Board of Directors was
replaced with the current directors, all of whom were designated by Clear
Channel.

Tichenor Merger

         On July 9, 1996, Clear Channel and Tichenor entered into an Agreement
and Plan of Merger, which was amended and restated on October 10, 1996 ("Merger
Agreement"), which, subject to the terms and conditions thereof, provides for
the acquisition of Tichenor by the Company (the "Tichenor Merger"). Pursuant to
the Merger Agreement, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company will merge with
and into Tichenor, and Tichenor shall continue as the surviving corporation as a
wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. At the time the Merger Agreement was
executed, Clear Channel had commenced but not completed the Tender Offer. The
then existing management and Board of Directors of the Company were not involved
in the negotiations concerning the acquisition of Tichenor. On August 14, 1996,
after the consummation of the Tender Offer, Clear Channel offered to assign the
Merger Agreement to the Company in accordance with the Merger Agreement, and on
October 10, 1996, the current Board of Directors of the Company approved the
Tichenor Merger and the assignment to the Company of the Merger Agreement. In
approving the Tichenor Merger, the Company considered, among other things, the
strength of the combined management of the Company and Tichenor; the marketing
and operating benefits of the expansion of the Company's presence into each of
the top ten Hispanic markets; and the benefits of diversifying the Company's
operations thereby reducing its reliance on any individual market.

         Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, the shareholders and warrant
holders of Tichenor will receive an aggregate of 5,689,878 shares of the
Company's Class A Common Stock and approximately $3.4 million in cash. The
Company will also assume Tichenor's outstanding debt which was approximately
$71.3 million on September 30, 1996. In addition, Clear Channel will convert all
of its shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock and its shares of common
stock of Tichenor into 7,428,235 shares of a redesignated Class B Common Stock
("Nonvoting Common Stock") that will not have any voting rights except as
specifically provided for in the charter or as otherwise required by law.

         The Tichenor Merger requires the approval of the Federal Communications
Commission ("FCC"). The FCC's cross-interest policy bars a party which holds an
attributable interest in one or more radio stations in a market from having a
"meaningful relationship" with another radio station in that market. A
"meaningful relationship" is construed by the FCC to include a non-voting equity
position in excess of 33 1/3% of the total outstanding common stock. Clear
Channel has informed the Company that it is considering a number of alternatives
to comply with FCC regulations upon consummation of the Tichenor Merger. In the
event that no other alternative is approved by the FCC, Clear Channel has
informed the Company it may place any remaining shares of Nonvoting Common Stock
above the 33 1/3% maximum in a disposition trust for the purpose of sale,
through negotiated block transactions or other type of sales. The use of a
disposition trust, and the terms thereof, would be subject to the prior consent
of the FCC.

         Upon consummation of the Tichenor Merger, the Company will enter into
an employment agreement with McHenry T. Tichenor, Jr., pursuant to which Mr.
Tichenor will serve as Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of the
Company for a five year term. Mr. Tichenor is currently the President and Chief
Executive Officer of Tichenor. The Tichenor Merger Agreement also provides that
following the consummation of the Tichenor Merger, five designees of Tichenor
shall constitute the entire Board of Directors of the Company. Tichenor has
informed the Company its designees are McHenry T. Tichenor Jr., McHenry T.
Tichenor Sr., Robert Hughes, James M. Raines, and Ernesto Cruz.

Business and Radio Station Asset Acquisitions

         In March 1996, the Company acquired the FCC license and certain
broadcast and other equipment of WPAT-AM in the New York City market for
approximately $19.5 million in cash. The acquisition was financed through
additional borrowings under the Company's credit agreement.

Viva Media Transaction

         On September 7, 1995, the Company, through a subsidiary, acquired from
Mambisa Broadcasting Corporation (Mambisa) the remaining 51% interest in Viva
America Media Group (Viva Media), a Florida partnership that owns WAQI-AM and
WRTO-FM which serve the Miami market, for $19.8 million in cash. In addition, on
September 7, 1995 the Company agreed to purchase from Mambisa real property in
Miami, Florida on which the transmission tower for WAQI-AM is located for $1.5
million in cash and a $1.5 million non-interest bearing promissory note. The
acquisition of the real property was completed in January 1996. The Company
secured the $1.5 million promissory note with a mortgage on the purchased
premises.

Refinanced Credit Agreement

  New Credit Agreement

         On August 5, 1996, concurrent with the completion of the Tender Offer
described under "Clear Channel Tender Offer", the Company borrowed $135 million
under a new revolving credit agreement ("New Credit Agreement") with new lenders
which provides a total credit facility of $155 million. The proceeds were used
to retire all of the outstanding debt under the Company's old credit agreement
and to pay certain noncompete and employment contract settlements plus certain
transaction and other costs relating to the Tender Offer. The lenders have a
security interest in the assets of the Company and the stock and partnership
interests of the Company's subsidiaries. The New Credit Agreement restricts the
payment of dividends and establishes limitations on, among other things, capital
expenditures and additional borrowings. The Company is also required to maintain
certain financial ratios, such as leverage and interest coverage ratios.
Interest on borrowings under the New Credit Agreement is due monthly and the
unpaid principal balance plus accrued interest is due in January 1998.

  Old Credit Agreement

         On March 13, 1996, the Company completed an Amended and Restated Credit
Agreement ("Old Credit Agreement") under which the credit facilities were
increased from $100 million to $175 million and the commencement of principal
payments was deferred until December 1996. Other terms of the Old Credit
Agreement remained substantially the same. On March 25, 1996, the Company
borrowed an additional $20 million under the Old Credit Agreement to fund the
acquisition of the assets of radio station WPAT-AM in New York.

Discontinued Operations

         Effective August 5, 1996, the Company's Board of Directors approved a
plan to discontinue the operations of the radio network owned by the Company's
wholly owned subsidiary Spanish Coast-to-Coast, Ltd., dba Cadena Radio Centro
(CRC). The loss relating to the discontinued operations of CRC for fiscal 1996
approximates $10 million, $8.1 million of which was recognized during the
quarter ended September 30, 1996. CRC intends to fulfill its contractual program
obligations and is expected to cease operating by December 31, 1996.

PROGRAMMING

         Due to differences in origin, Hispanics are not a homogeneous group.
The music, culture, customs and Spanish dialects vary from one radio market to
another. Consequently, the Company programs its stations in a manner responsive
to the local preferences of a target demographic audience in each of the markets
it serves. A well researched mix of music and on-air programming at an
individual station can attract a wide audience targeted by Spanish language
advertisers. Programming is consistently monitored to maintain its quality and
relevance to the target audience. Most music formats are primarily variations of
Regional Mexican, Tropical, Tejano and Contemporary music styles. The local
program director selects music from the various music styles that best reflects
the music preferences of the local Hispanic audiences. A brief description of
each music style follows:

         Regional Mexican. Regional Mexican consists of various types of music
played in different regions of Mexico. Ranchera music, originating in Jalisco,
Mexico, is a traditional folkloric sound commonly referred to as Mariachi music.
Mariachi music features acoustical instruments and is considered the music
indigenous to Mexicans who have lived in the country towns. Nortena means
northern, and is representative of Northern Mexico. Featuring an accordion,
Nortena has a Polka sound with a distinct Mexican flavor. Banda is a regional
format from the state of Sinaloa, Mexico and is popular in California. Banda
resembles up-tempo marching band music with synthesizers. Regional Mexican also
includes Cumbia music, which originates from Colombia.

         Contemporary. The Contemporary format includes pop, Latin rock, and
ballads. This format is similar to English adult contemporary and contemporary
hit radio stations.

         Tropical. The Tropical format primarily consists of Salsa, Merengue and
Cumbia music. Salsa is dance music combining Latin Caribbean rhythms with jazz.
Salsa symbolizes music from Puerto Rico, Cuba, and the Dominican Republic and is
popular with Hispanics living in New York, Miami and Chicago. Merengue music is
also up-tempo dance music originating from the Dominican Republic.

         Tejano. Tejano music originated in Texas and is based on Mexican themes
but is indigenous to Texas. It is a combination of contemporary rock, Ranchera,
and country music. The lyrics are sung in both Spanish and English. The on-air
talent speak in Spanish and English.

         Full service. The Full Service format includes all the traditional
radio services: music, news, sports, traffic reports, special information
programs and weather.

         News/Talk. News includes local, national, international reports and
weather, business, traffic and sports. Talk includes commentary, analysis,
discussion, interviews, call-ins and information shows.

COMPETITION

         Broadcasting is a highly competitive business. The Company's radio
stations compete for audiences and advertising revenues with other radio
stations of all formats, as well as with other media, such as newspapers,
magazines, television, cable television, outdoor advertising and direct mail,
within their respective markets. Audience ratings and market shares are subject
to change and any adverse change in a particular market could have a material
adverse effect on the revenue of stations located in that market.

         The radio broadcasting industry is also subject to competition from new
media technologies being developed, such as the delivery of audio programming by
cable and direct satellite television systems, which are already available in
many markets, and satellite and terrestrial delivery of digital audio
broadcasting and satellite radio. See "--Federal Regulation of Radio
Broadcasting." There can be no assurance the development or introduction of any
new media technology will not have an adverse effect on the radio broadcasting
industry.

         Companies operating radio stations must always be alert to the
possibility of another station changing its programming format to compete
directly for listeners and advertisers. There are typically several other
well-capitalized station operators competing in the same geographic markets as
the Company. If one or more of these operators decide to convert one of their
stations to a format similar to one of the Company's radio stations in the same
geographic area, the result could be lower ratings and advertising revenue,
increased

promotion and other expenses and consequently lower broadcast cash
flow for the Company.

FEDERAL REGULATION OF RADIO BROADCASTING

         Existing Regulation and Legislation. Radio broadcasting is subject to
the jurisdiction of the FCC under the Communications Act of 1934, as amended
(the "Communications Act"). The Communications Act prohibits the operation of a
radio broadcasting station except under a license issued by the FCC and empowers
the FCC, among other things, to issue, renew, revoke and modify broadcasting
licenses; assign frequency bands; determine stations' frequencies, locations and
power; regulate the equipment used by stations; adopt other regulations to carry
out the provisions of the Communications Act; impose penalties for violation of
such regulations; and impose fees for processing applications and other
administrative functions. The Communications Act prohibits the assignment of a
license or the transfer of control of a licensee without prior approval of the
FCC.

         The Telecommunications Act of 1996 (the "1996 Act") represents the most
comprehensive overhaul of the country's telecommunications laws in more than 60
years. The 1996 Act significantly changes both the broadcast ownership rules and
the process for renewal of broadcast station licenses. The 1996 Act also relaxes
local radio ownership restrictions. The FCC has already implemented some of
these changes through Commission Orders. The 1996 Act establishes a "two-step"
renewal process that limits the FCC's discretion to consider applications filed
in competition with an incumbent's renewal application. Additionally, the 1996
Act substantially liberalizes the national broadcast ownership rules,
eliminating the national radio limits.

         This new regulatory flexibility has engendered aggressive local,
regional, and/or national acquisition campaigns. Removal of previous station
ownership limitations on leading incumbents (i.e., existing networks and major
station groups) has increased sharply the competition for, and the prices of,
attractive stations.

         Multiple Ownership Restrictions. The FCC has promulgated rules that,
among other things, limit the ability of individuals and entities to own or have
an official position or ownership interest above a certain level (an
"attributable" interest, as defined more fully below) in broadcast stations, as
well as other specified mass media entities. Prior to the passage of the 1996
Act, these rules included limits on the number of radio stations that could be
owned on both a national and local basis. On a national basis, the rules
generally precluded any individual or entity from having an attributable
interest in more than 20 AM radio stations and 20 FM radio stations.

         The 1996 Act substantially relaxed the radio ownership limitations. The
FCC began its implementation of the 1996 Act with several orders issued on March
8, 1996. The Act and the FCC's subsequently issued rule changes eliminated the
national ownership restriction, allowing a single entity to own nationally any
number of AM or FM broadcast stations. The Act and the FCC's new rules also
greatly eased local radio ownership restrictions. As with the old rules, the
maximum allowable varies depending on the number of radio stations within a
market. In markets with more than 45 stations, one company may own, operate or
control eight stations, with no more than five in any one service (AM or FM). In
markets of 30-44 stations, one company may own seven stations, with no more than
four in any one service; in markets with 15- 29 stations, one entity may own six
stations, with no more than four in any one service. In markets with 14
commercial stations or less, one company may own up to five stations or 50% of
all of the stations, whichever is less, with no more than three in any one
service. It should be noted, however, that the Department of Justice recently
has precluded certain entities from acquiring the maximum number of radio
stations allowed in a market under the 1996 Act because of concerns that
antitrust laws would be violated. Thus, it is possible that the Company would,
in certain instances, be unable to acquire the maximum number of stations
allowed in a market under the 1996 Act.



                                       10

<PAGE>   11

         In 1992, the FCC placed limitations on time brokerage (local marketing)
agreements ("LMA") through which the licensee of one radio station provides the
programming for another licensee's station in the same market. Stations
operating in the same service (e.g., where both stations are AM) and in the same
market are prohibited from simulcasting more than 25% of their programming.
Moreover, in determining the number of stations that a single entity may
control, an entity programming a station pursuant to an LMA is required, under
certain circumstances, to count that station toward its maximum even though it
does not own the station.

         A number of cross-ownership rules pertain to licensees of television
and radio stations. FCC rules, the Communications Act or both generally prohibit
an individual or entity from having an attributable interest in both a
television station and a radio station, daily newspaper or cable television
system that is located in the same local market area served by the television
station. The FCC has employed a liberal waiver policy with respect to the
TV/radio cross-ownership restriction (the so-called "one-to-a-market" rule),
generally permitting common ownership of one AM, one FM, and one TV station in
any of the 25 largest markets, provided there are at least 30 separately owned
stations in the market. The 1996 Act directed the Commission to extend its
one-to-a-market waiver policy to the top 50 markets, consistent with the public
interest, convenience and necessity. On November 7, 1996, the FCC released a
Second Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking seeking comment on a number if
issues relating to the local television ownership rules, including its tentative
conclusion that it should extend the presumptive waiver of the one-to-a-market
rule to the top 50 markets. The Commission also requested further comment on
whether there is a continued need for the rule and, if there is, whether the
rule should be further modified. In addition, on September 27, 1996, the FCC
released a Notice of Inquiry seeking comment on whether it should relax its
policy of granting waivers of the radio/newspaper cross-ownership restriction.

         Expansion of the Company's broadcast operations in particular areas and
nationwide will continue to be subject to the FCC's ownership rules and any
further changes the FCC or Congress may adopt. Significantly, the 1996 Act
requires the Commission to review its remaining ownership rules biennially -- as
part of its regulatory reform obligations -- to determine whether its various
rules are still necessary. The Company cannot predict the impact of the biennial
review process or any other agency or legislative initiatives upon the FCC's
broadcast rules. Further, the 1996 Act's relaxation of the FCC's ownership rules
may increase the level of competition in one or more of the markets in which the
Company's stations are located, particularly to the extent that any of the
Company's competitors may have greater resources and thereby be in a better
position to capitalize on such changes.

         Under the FCC's ownership rules, a direct or indirect purchaser of
certain types of securities of the Company could violate FCC regulations if that
purchaser owned or acquired an "attributable" or "meaningful" interest in other
media properties in the same areas as stations owned by the Company or in a
manner otherwise prohibited by the FCC. All officers and directors of a
licensee, as well as general partners, limited partners who are not properly
"insulated" from management activities, and stockholders who own five percent or
more of the outstanding voting stock of a licensee (either directly or
indirectly), generally will be deemed to have an attributable interest in the
license. Certain institutional investors who exert no control or influence over
a licensee may own up to ten percent of such outstanding voting stock without
being considered "attributable". Under current FCC regulations, debt
instruments, non-voting stock, properly insulated limited partnership interests
(as to which the licensee certifies that the limited partners are not
"materially involved" in the management and operation of the subject media
property) and voting stock held by minority stockholders in cases in which there
is a single majority stockholder generally are not attributable. The FCC's
"cross-interest" policy, which precludes an individual or entity from having a
"meaningful" (even though not attributable) interest in one media property and
an attributable interest in a broadcast, cable or newspaper property in the same
area, may be invoked in certain circumstances to reach interests not expressly
covered by the multiple ownership rules.

         In January 1995, the FCC initiated a rulemaking proceeding designed to
permit a "thorough review of [its] broadcast media attribution rules." Among the
issues on which comment was sought were (i) whether to change the voting stock
attribution benchmarks from five percent to ten percent and, for passive
investors, from ten percent to twenty percent; (ii) whether there are any
circumstances in which non-voting stock interests, which are currently
considered non-attributable, should be considered attributable; (iii) whether
the FCC should eliminate its single majority shareholder exception (pursuant to
which voting interests in excess of five percent are not considered cognizable
if a single shareholder owns more than fifty percent of the voting power); (iv)
whether to relax insulation standards for business development companies and
other widely-held limited partnerships; (v) how to treat limited liability
companies and other new business forms for attribution purposes; (vi) whether to
eliminate or codify the cross-interest policy; and (vii) whether to adopt a new
policy which would consider whether multiple cross interests or other
significant business relationships (such as time brokerage agreements, debt
relationships or holdings of nonattributable interests), which individually do
not raise concerns, raise issues with respect to diversity and competition. On
November 7, 1996, the FCC released a Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking in
order to elicit further comment on several issues concerning its review of the
broadcast attribution rules. In general, the FCC seeks comment as to whether the
recent relaxation of the multiple ownership rules resulting from passage of the
1996 Act should affect the Commission's review of the rules, including whether a
combination of debt and equity exceeding a certain threshold should be
considered to be an attributable interest. The Company cannot predict with
certainty when this proceeding will be concluded or whether any of these
standards will be changed. Should the attribution rules be changed, the Company
is unable to predict what effect, if any, such changes would have on the Company
or its activities.

         License Grant and Renewal. Prior to the passage of the 1996 Act, radio
broadcasting licenses generally were granted or renewed for a period of seven
years upon a finding by the FCC that the "public interest, convenience, and
necessity" would be served thereby. At the time an application is made for
renewal of a radio license, parties in interest may file petitions to deny the
application, and such parties, including members of the public, may comment upon
the service the station has provided during the preceding license term. In
addition, prior to passage of the 1996 Act, any person was permitted to file a
competing application for authority to operate on the station's channel and
replace the incumbent licensee. Renewal applications were granted without a
hearing if there were no competing applications or if issues raised by
petitioners to deny such applications were not serious enough to cause the FCC
to order a hearing. If competing applications were filed, a full comparative
hearing was required.

         Under the 1996 Act, the statutory restriction on the length of
broadcast licenses has been amended to allow the FCC to grant broadcast licenses
for terms of up to eight years, although the FCC has not yet implemented this
provision. The 1996 Act also requires renewal of a broadcast license if the FCC
finds that (1) the station has served the public interest, convenience, and
necessity; (2) there have been no serious violations of either the
Communications Act or the FCC's rules and regulations by the licensee; and (3)
there have been no other serious violations which taken together constitute a
pattern of abuse. In making its determination, the FCC may still consider
petitions to deny but cannot consider whether the public interest would be
better served by a person other than the renewal applicant. Instead, under the
1996 Act, competing applications for the same frequency may be accepted only
after the Commission has denied an incumbent's application for renewal of
license.

         By order dated April 12, 1996, the FCC modified its rules to implement
the new two-step renewal procedure and to eliminate the right to file an
application that is mutually exclusive with a renewal. This modification became
effective prior to the filing of the license renewal application for WLXX-AM in
Chicago which is currently pending. Also on April 12, 1996, the FCC issued a
notice of Proposed Rulemaking to consider how to implement the new (longer)
license term provision of the 1996 Act.

         Although in the vast majority of cases broadcast licenses are granted
by the FCC even when petitions to deny are filed against them, there can be no
assurance that any of the Company's stations' licenses will be renewed.

         Alien Ownership Restrictions. The Communications Act restricts the
ability of foreign entities or individuals to own or hold certain interests in
broadcast licenses. Foreign governments, representatives of foreign governments,
non-U.S. citizens, representatives of non-U.S. citizens, and corporations or
partnerships organized under the laws of a foreign nation are barred from
holding broadcast licenses. Non-U.S. citizens, collectively, may directly or
indirectly own or vote up to twenty percent of the capital stock of a licensee.
In addition, a broadcast license may not be granted to or held by any
corporation that is controlled, directly or indirectly, by any other corporation
more than one-fourth of whose capital stock is owned or voted by non-U.S.
citizens or their representatives, by foreign governments or their
representatives, or by non-U.S. corporations, if the FCC finds that the public
interest will be served by the refusal or revocation of such license. The FCC
has interpreted this provision of the Communications Act to require an
affirmative public interest finding before a broadcast license may be granted to
or held by any such corporation, and the FCC has made such an affirmative
finding only in limited circumstances. The Company, which serves as a holding
company for subsidiaries that serve as licensees for the stations, therefore may
be restricted from having more than one-fourth of its stock owned or voted
directly or indirectly by non-U.S. citizens, foreign governments,
representatives of non-U.S. citizens or foreign governments, or foreign
corporations. The Communications Act previously prohibited granting of a
broadcast station license (i) to any corporation with an alien officer or
director, or (ii) to any corporation controlled by another corporation with any
alien officers or more than one-fourth alien directors. The restrictions on
non-U.S. citizens serving as officers or directors of licensees and their parent
corporations have been eliminated, however, by the 1996 Act.

         Other Regulations Affecting Radio Broadcasting Stations. The FCC has
significantly reduced its past regulation of broadcast stations, including
elimination of formal ascertainment requirements and guidelines concerning
amounts of certain types of programming and commercial matter that may be
broadcast. In 1990, the U.S. Supreme Court refused to review a lower court
decision that upheld the FCC's 1987 action invalidating most aspects of the
Fairness Doctrine, which had required broadcasters to present contrasting views
on controversial issues of public importance. The FCC has, however, continued to
regulate other aspects of fairness obligations in connection with certain types
of broadcasts. In addition, there are FCC rules and policies, and rules and
policies of other federal agencies, that regulate matters such as political
advertising practices, equal employment opportunity, application procedures and
other areas affecting the business or operations of broadcast stations.

         Recent Developments, Proposed Legislation and Regulation. The FCC
presently is seeking comment on its policies designed to increase minority
ownership of mass media facilities. Congress, however, has enacted legislation
that eliminated the minority tax certificate program of the FCC, which gave
favorable tax treatment to entities selling broadcast stations to entities
controlled by an ethnic minority. In addition, a recent Supreme Court decision
has cast into doubt the continued validity of other FCC programs designed to
increase minority ownership of mass media facilities.

         Congress and the FCC currently have under consideration, and may in the
future adopt, new laws, regulations and policies regarding a wide variety of
matters that could affect, directly or indirectly, the operation and ownership
of the Company's broadcast properties. In addition to the changes and proposed
changes noted above, such matters include, for example, the license renewal
process, spectrum use fees, political advertising rates, potential restrictions
on the advertising of certain products (liquor, beer and wine, for example) and
the rules and policies to be applied in enforcing the FCC's equal employment
opportunity regulations. Other matters that could affect the Company's broadcast
properties include technological

innovations and developments generally affecting competition in the mass
communications industry.

         The foregoing does not purport to be a complete summary of all the
provisions of the Communications Act, or the 1996 Act, nor of the regulations
and policies of the FCC thereunder. The 1996 Act also covers satellite and
terrestrial delivery of digital audio radio service, and direct broadcast
satellite systems. Proposals for additional or revised regulations and
requirements are pending before and are being considered by Congress and federal
regulatory agencies from time to time. Also, various of the foregoing matters
are now, or may become, the subject of court litigation, and the Company cannot
predict the outcome of any such litigation or the impact on its broadcast
business.

INDUSTRY SEGMENTS

         The Company considers radio broadcasting to be its only business
segment.

EMPLOYEES

         As of November 1, 1996, the Company employed 314 persons on a full-time

         Studio, transmitter and office facilities of WPAT-AM are located in a
7,600 square foot building in Clifton, New Jersey. Adjacent to the building is
the tower site. The related building, tower site and the towers are owned by the
Company. The Company plans to relocate and combine the administrative offices
and studios of WADO-AM with the facilities of WPAT-AM in early 1997.

         The Texas stations' offices are located in a 22,000 square foot
facility in Dallas owned by the Company. The Company owns a tower in Ft. Worth
for the broadcast of the signal for KESS-AM and leases the land on which such
tower is located under a lease which expires in September 2001. The Company owns
a tower located in Denton, Texas which broadcasts the signal for KICI-AM and a
tower located in Dallas which broadcasts the signal for KMRT-AM. The Company
also owns a tower located in Dallas which broadcasts the signal for KICI-FM. The
Company leases land in Tarrant County and Wise County on which the towers that
broadcast the signals for KMRT-FM and KHCK-FM, respectively, are located. These
leases expire in September 2001 and July 2000, respectively, and provide for
options to renew the leases through September 2006 and July 2005, respectively.
The Company owns the towers and equipment buildings located on the leased land.

         The studio and administrative office for WLXX-AM relocated to a new
facility in Chicago in September 1996. The Company subleases approximately 2,400
square feet for which the lease expires in 2006. The Company also leases land in
Chicago on which a tower which broadcasts the signal for WLXX-AM is located.
This lease expires in March 1998 and provides for four options to renew the
lease for a term of ten years each.

         The studio and administrative office for KLSQ-AM occupy 1,500 square
feet at the same facility as the Company's corporate office in Las Vegas,
Nevada. The initial term of the lease expires in 1999 and the lease provides for
two options to renew the lease for a term of five years each. The Company also
leases land in Laughlin, Nevada and Henderson, Nevada, on which the towers that
broadcast the signal for KLSQ-AM are located. These leases expire in 2019 and
2004, respectively. Each of the leases provides for renewal options which extend

ITEM 3.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

         On June 14, 1996, Levine v. Cecil Heftel, H. Carl Parmer, Madison
Graves, Richard Heftel, John Mason, Heftel Broadcasting Corporation and Clear
Channel Communications, Inc. (Case No. 15066) was filed in the Court of Chancery
of the State of Delaware in the County of New Castle. This complaint is a
purported class action complaint on behalf of Jeffrey Levine and all other
stockholders of the Company to enjoin the defendants from effectuating the
Tender Offer. The plaintiff also alleges that Cecil Heftel and Carl Parmer,
former directors and executive officers of the Company, breached their fiduciary
duties to the stockholders of the Company by negotiating a settlement of amounts
which would be owed to them under their employment agreements upon a termination
thereof by the Company at the closing of the Tender Offer. The suit seeks the
rescission of the Tender Offer and/or the grant of rescissory damages. In
addition, plaintiff seeks unspecified compensatory damages and an award of
attorneys' fees and costs. The Company has tendered the claims



                                       15

<PAGE>   16

subject to this suit to its director and officer insurance carriers. The Tender
Offer closed without any action by plaintiffs. The Company has filed a motion to
dismiss the suit and has requested plaintiffs to dismiss the suit voluntary. No
action has been taken on such motion or such request. The Company's management
believes the disposition of this litigation will not have a materially adverse
effect on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of
operations. 

         In the ordinary course of business, the Company becomes involved in
certain other legal claims and litigation. In the opinion of management, based
upon consultations with legal counsel, the disposition of such litigation
pending against the Company will not have a materially adverse effect on its
consolidated financial position or results of operations.

ITEM 4.  SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

         The Company did not submit any matters to a vote of holders of Common
Stock during the fourth quarter of fiscal 1996.

         As of December 18, 1996, the number of stockholders of record of the
Company's Class A Common Stock was 14. This figure does not include an estimate
of the indeterminate number of beneficial holders whose shares may be held of
record by brokerage firms and clearing agencies. There are no outstanding shares
of the Company's Class B Common Stock.

         During the quarter ended September 30, 1996, the Company issued 5,000
shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock to a former director pursuant to
the exercise and sale of an in-the-money stock option granted in December 1995.
This issuance was not registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

DIVIDEND POLICY

         The Series A Preferred Stock ("Preferred Stock") dividends have a
cumulative annual rate of $0.08 per share. In January 1995, the Company redeemed
1,960,290 shares of Preferred Stock using proceeds of the Company's 1994 initial
public offering. The Company declared and paid cash dividends on the Preferred
Stock equal to the cumulative unpaid dividends through the date of redemption,
which approximated $2.9 million. In 1992, the Company redeemed 2,115,468 shares
of Preferred Stock owned by Cecil Heftel and agreed with Mr. Heftel to defer
payment of cumulative unpaid dividends until dividends on the remaining shares
of Preferred Stock were declared and paid. Such dividends relating to the 1992
Preferred Stock redemption, which totaled $1.1 million, are included in the $2.9
million of unpaid cumulative dividends described above. On August 5, 1996, in
connection with the Tender Offer, the remaining 335,634 shares of Preferred
Stock were redeemed and retired. Total dividends paid during fiscal 1996
relating to these retired shares were $42,961. Any future determination as to
declaration of dividends on the common stock will be at the discretion of the
Company's Board of Directors and will depend on the Company's results of
operations, financial condition, capital requirements, lending agreements and
other factors deemed relevant by the Board of Directors.

NOTES TO SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA

(1)      During August 1994, the Company completed three separate business
         acquisitions and began consolidating a previously unconsolidated
         investment in a joint venture. Total net revenues and net income
         (loss), adjusted for interest expense on retired debt, relating to
         these acquisitions and transaction from the respective dates of these
         transactions to September 30, 1994 was approximately $5,488,000 and
         $(80,000), respectively.

(2)      See Note 1 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of the
         Company.

(3)      The Company's Board of Directors approved a plan to discontinue the
         operations of the radio network owned by CRC, effective August 5, 1996.
         The total loss relating to the discontinued operations of CRC for
         fiscal 1996 was approximately $10 million, $8.1 million of which was
         recognized during the quarter ended September 30, 1996. The loss on
         disposal of CRC includes approximately $1.9 million of operating losses
         from the measurement date, August 5, 1996, through the planned disposal
         date, December 31, 1996. CRC intends to fulfill its contractual program
         obligations and is expected to cease operating by December 31, 1996.

(4)      Data on station operating income excluding depreciation and
         amortization (commonly referred to as "broadcast cash flow"), although
         not calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting
         principles, is widely used in the broadcast industry as a measure of a
         broadcast company's operating performance. Nevertheless, this measure
         should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for operating
         income, cash flows from operating activities or any other measure for
         determining the Company's operating performance or liquidity which is
         calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

ITEM 7.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
          AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1996 COMPARED TO THE YEAR
ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1995

         During fiscal 1995, the Company completed several radio station
acquisitions. Due to the financial effects of these transactions, the results of
operations for 1996 reflect a full fiscal year of operations for these radio
stations compared to a partial year in 1995. Consequently, the results of
operations for the two years ended September 30, 1996 are not entirely
comparable.

         Net revenues increased by $7.6 million, or 11.8%, to $71.7 million in
the year ended September 30, 1996 from $64.2 million in the same period of 1995.
Operating expenses increased by $7.4 million, or 14.3%, to $59.1 million in the
year ended September 30, 1996 from $51.7 million in the same period of 1995.
These increases were due primarily to the results of operations for the full
fiscal year of additional radio stations acquired during fiscal 1995.

         Interest expense, net of interest income, increased by $4.6 million, or
72.7%, to $11.0 million in the year ended September 30, 1996 from $6.4 million
in the same period of 1995 primarily due to increased borrowings totaling
approximately $42.0 million resulting from radio station asset acquisitions and
certain transaction costs related to the Tender Offer.

         Other expenses increased by $37.7 million to $38.1 million during the
year ended September 30, 1996 as compared to $428,000 for the same period in
1995. For the year ended September 30, 1996, the Company incurred a non-cash
loss of $7.5 million as a result of refinanced debt. In addition, in 1996 the
Company incurred a loss of $29.0 million relating to certain one-time
restructuring charges described further in the following paragraphs. During
fiscal 1996, the Company incurred $1.4 million in cost related to unconsummated
acquisitions as compared to $142,000 for fiscal 1995. In fiscal 1995, the
Company recorded $1.2 million in minority interest relating to Viva Media. In
1996, the Company owned 100% of Viva Media; therefore no minority interest was
recorded.

         Effective August 5, 1996, the Company's Board of Directors approved a
plan to discontinue the operations of the radio network owned by CRC. The total
loss relating to the discontinued operations of CRC for fiscal 1996 was
approximately $10 million. The charge to operations during the quarter ended
September 30, 1996 was approximately $8.1 million, of which $6.2 million relates
to non-cash charges resulting from the write-off of goodwill. No income tax
benefit was realized due to the Company's availability of net operating loss
carryforwards. The loss on disposal of CRC includes approximately $1.9 million
of operating losses from the measurement date, August 5, 1996, through the
planned disposal date, December 31, 1996. CRC intends to fulfill its contractual
program obligations and is expected to cease operating by December 31, 1996.

         In connection with the Tender Offer, the Company incurred certain
one-time restructuring charges totaling approximately $29.0 million during the
quarter ended September 30, 1996. The material components of the restructuring
charges are $18.8 million in payments to former senior executives relating to
employment contract settlements, $4.7 million in broker commissions and
transaction costs, $2.5 million in costs relating to the planned closing of
duplicate facilities, plus $1.9 million in severance relating to employee
terminations resulting from the restructuring.

         During fiscal 1996, the Company incurred a net loss of $46.6 million
compared to net income of $3.7 million in the same period of 1995. The change
from net income in 1995 to the net loss in 1996 of $50.3 million consist
primarily of the increase in interest expense, loss on retirement of debt,
discontinued operations of CRC, and the restructuring charges related to the
Tender Offer, all as described above.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1995 COMPARED TO THE YEAR
ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1994

         During fiscal 1995, the Company completed several radio station
acquisitions. Additional stations were acquired in August 1994. Due to the
financial effects of these transactions, the results of operations for 1995
reflect the operations of more radio stations than the results of operations for
1994. Consequently, the financial condition and results of operations for the
two years ended September 30, 1995 are not entirely comparable.

         Net revenues increased by $36.7 million, or 133.9%, to $64.2 million in
the year ended September 30, 1995 from $27.4 million in the same period of 1994.
Operating expenses increased by $31.0 million, or 149.7%, to $51.7 million in
the year ended September 30, 1995 from $20.7 million in the same period of 1994.
These increases were due primarily to the results of operations of additional
radio stations acquired in August 1994 and during fiscal 1995.

         Interest expense, net of interest income, increased by $3.4 million, or
113.2%, to $6.4 million for the year ended September 30, 1995 from $3.0 million
in the same period of 1994 primarily due to increased borrowings resulting from
new business acquisitions.

         Other expenses decreased by $2.7 million, or 86%, to $428,000 during
the year ended September 30, 1995 as compared to $3.1 million for the same
period in 1994. For the year ended September 30, 1994, the Company incurred a
loss of $1.7 million as a result of refinanced debt. In addition, in 1995, the
Company incurred $142,000 in costs relating to unconsummated acquisitions
compared to $1.1 million in the prior year.

         Effective August 20, 1994, the Company began accounting for its 49%
investment in Viva Media on a consolidated basis. Accordingly, the results of
operations include the accounts of Viva Media from August 20, 1994 through
September 30, 1994, and for the entire fiscal year ended September 30, 1995.

         Net income increased by $3.2 million to $3.7 million in the year ended
September 30, 1995 from $466,000 in the same period of 1994.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         Net cash used in operating activities for the year ended September 30,
1996 was $20.1 million, compared to net cash provided by operations of $6.3
million for the same period in 1995. Excluding the effects of the loss on
discontinued operations of CRC and the cash portion of certain restructuring
charges related to the Tender Offer incurred during fiscal 1996, net cash
provided by operating activities would have been $5.3 million as compared to net
cash used of $20.1 million. Generally, capital expenditures are financed with
cash provided by operations and long-term borrowings. On August 5, 1996,
concurrent with the completion of the Tender Offer, the Company borrowed $135
million under the New Credit Agreement, which provides a total credit facility
of $155 million. The proceeds were used to retire all of the outstanding debt
under the Company's Old Credit Agreement (as hereafter defined) and to pay
certain non-compete and employment contract settlements plus certain transaction
and other costs relating to the Tender Offer. The lender has a security interest
in substantially all the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries, including
the stock and partnership interests of the Company's subsidiaries. The New
Credit Agreement restricts the payment of dividends and establishes limitations
on, among other things, capital expenditures and additional borrowings. The
Company is also required to maintain certain financial ratios, such as leverage
and interest coverage ratios. The entire principal balance outstanding plus
unpaid interest is due in January 1998.


                                       21

<PAGE>   22

         On March 13, 1996, the Company completed an Amended and Restated Credit
Agreement ("Old Credit Agreement") resulting in an increase to the total credit
facilities from $100 million to $175 million and the commencement of principal
payments was deferred until December 31, 1996. Other terms of the Old Credit
Agreement remained substantially the same. On March 25, 1996, the Company
borrowed an additional $20 million under the Old Credit Agreement. The proceeds
were used to fund the acquisition of the FCC license and certain broadcast and
other equipment of WPAT-AM in New York.

         On January 10, 1996, the Company borrowed $1.5 million under its Old
Credit Agreement and issued a $1.5 million non-interest promissory note in
connection with the acquisition of real property in Miami on which an AM
transmitting tower is located. During fiscal 1995, the Company borrowed
$36,475,000 under the Old Credit Agreement. Proceeds of these borrowings were
used primarily for business acquisitions, capital expenditures and working
capital.

         On October 18, 1996, the Company filed a Registration Statement on Form
S-3 with the Securities and Exchange Commission to register the sale of up to
4,025,000 shares of its Class A Common Stock in a secondary public offering. The
net proceeds from this stock offering will be used to repay outstanding debt
under the New Credit Agreement. The registration statement has not yet been
declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission.

         Available cash on hand plus cash provided by operations were sufficient
to pay interest due under the credit agreements and fund certain capital
expenditures during the year ended September 30, 1996. The Company's management
believes it will have sufficient cash flow to finance its operations and satisfy
its debt service requirements. The Company regularly reviews potential
acquisitions of additional radio stations. Future acquisitions are expected to
be financed through additional borrowings under the New Credit Agreement and/or
cash provided by operations.

         Following the Tichenor Merger, the Company may refinance all or a
portion of the consolidated indebtedness. There can be no assurance, however,
that any such refinancing will be consummated, or if consummated, what the terms
of the new financing will be.

NET OPERATING LOSS CARRYFORWARDS

         As of September 30, 1996, the Company had tax net operating loss
carryforwards for federal and state tax purposes of approximately $21.9 million
and $3.4 million, respectively. The loss carryforwards expire through the year
2011 if not used.

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

         Beginning fiscal 1997, the Company will adopt Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived
Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of" which requires impairment
losses to be recorded on long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of
impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated
by those assets are less than the assets' carrying amounts. Statement No. 121
also addresses the accounting for long-lived assets that are expected to be
disposed of. The adoption of this new accounting standard is not expected to
have a material effect on the Company's financial statements.

                         REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS


The Board of Directors and Stockholders
Heftel Broadcasting Corporation

         We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Heftel
Broadcasting Corporation as of September 30, 1996 and 1995, and the related
consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for
each of the three years in the period ended September 30, 1996. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits.

         We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

         In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of
Heftel Broadcasting Corporation at September 30, 1996 and 1995, and the
consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three
years in the period ended September 30, 1996, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.

                         HEFTEL BROADCASTING CORPORATION

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                           SEPTEMBER 30, 1996 AND 1995

1.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

  Business

         Heftel Broadcasting Corporation (HBC or the Company), through its
subsidiaries, owns and operates seventeen Spanish language radio stations
serving the Los Angeles, Miami, New York City, Dallas/Ft. Worth, Chicago and Las
Vegas markets.

  Principles of Consolidation

         The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts
of Heftel Broadcasting Corporation and subsidiaries (collectively, the Company).
All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation. The Company's fiscal year end is September 30.

  Cash and Cash Equivalents

         The Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturity of
three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.

  Accounts Receivable

         The Company sells broadcast time to a diverse customer base including
advertising agencies and other direct customers. The Company performs credit
evaluations of its customers and generally does not require collateral. The
Company maintains allowances for potential losses and such losses have been
within management's expectations.

  Investment in Joint Venture/Minority Interest

         Until August 19, 1994, the Company's investment in its joint venture
was accounted for using the equity method of accounting. In connection with
certain agreements entered into between the Company and its joint venture
partner, management considered it appropriate to consolidate the accounts of the
joint venture and therefore such accounts and results of operations have been
consolidated and are included in the accompanying consolidated financial
statements effective August 20, 1994. On September 7, 1995, the Company, through
a subsidiary, acquired the remaining 51% interest in this joint venture (Note
4).

  Depreciation and Amortization

         Depreciation of property and equipment is computed using the
straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets,
which range from 3 to 40 years. Leasehold improvements are amortized using the
straight-line method over the shorter of the lease terms or the useful lives of
the improvements. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to
expense as incurred.

  Intangible Assets

         Intangible assets are stated at cost. Broadcast licenses are amortized
over 40 years using the straight-line method. Other intangible assets, including
cost in excess of fair value of net assets acquired, are amortized over the
expected period of benefit, ranging from 5 to 40 years, using the straight-line
method. The carrying value of intangible assets is reviewed if the facts and
circumstances suggest that such value may have been impaired. If this review
indicates that the carrying value of an intangible asset will not be
recoverable, as determined based on the undiscounted cash flows of the Company
over the remaining amortization period, the carrying value of the intangible
asset is reduced by the estimated shortfall of cash flows.

         Beginning fiscal 1997, the Company will adopt Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived
Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of." The adoption of this new
accounting standard is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's
financial position or results of operations.

  Income Taxes

         The Company accounts for income taxes using Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes (SFAS 109). Under SFAS
109, income taxes for financial reporting purposes are determined using the
liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are
determined based on differences between financial reporting and tax bases of
assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates expected to
apply to taxable income in the periods in which the deferred tax asset or
liability is expected to be realized or settled.

  Revenue Recognition

         Revenue is recognized as commercials are broadcast. The Company also
enters into barter transactions in which advertising time is traded for
merchandise or services used principally for promotional and other business
purposes. Barter revenue is recorded as commercials are broadcast at the
estimated fair value of the merchandise or services received. If merchandise or
services are received prior to the broadcast of commercials, recognition of the
related revenue is deferred and recognized as the commercials are broadcast.
Barter revenues accounted for approximately 6%, 7% and 7% of broadcasting
revenues in 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively.

  Earnings Per Share

         Net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income
(loss) by the weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares (if
dilutive) outstanding during each year. For purpose of this computation,
cumulative preferred stock dividends are deducted from net income (loss) whether
or not preferred stock dividends have been declared or paid.

  Use of Estimates

         The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and
accompanying notes. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

  Stock-Based Compensation

         The Company accounts for its stock compensation arrangements under
the provisions of APB 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and
intends to continue to do so.

         In October 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation" (SFAS 123), SFAS 123 established a fair value-based
method of accounting for compensation cost related to stock options and other
forms of stock-based compensation plans.  However, SFAS 123 allows an entity to
continue to measure compensation costs using the principles of APB 25 if
certain pro forma disclosures are made.  SFAS 123 is effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 1995.  The Company intends to adopt the provisions
for pro forma disclosure requirements of SFAS 123 in fiscal 1997.

  Reclassifications

         Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior years' balances
to conform to the current year presentation.

2.  RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

  Change in Control of Company

         On August 5, 1996, Clear Channel Radio, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary
of Clear Channel Communications, Inc. (Clear Channel), completed a stock
purchase and tender offer of the Company's Class A and B Common Stock for $23
per share. The consummation of these transactions, as more fully described
below, increased Clear Channel's investment in the Company from a previously
owned 21% interest to 63%. Clear Channel is a diversified radio and television
broadcasting company.

         Pursuant to a Stockholder Purchase Agreement dated June 1, 1996 between
Clear Channel and Mr. Cecil Heftel, former Chairman and Co-Chief Executive
Officer, Mr. Carl Parmer, former President and Co-Chief Executive officer and
members of the Heftel family, Clear Channel acquired 160,000 shares of the
Company's Class A Common Stock and 3,356,529 shares of the Company's Class B
Common Stock on August 5, 1996 (each share of Class B Common Stock converts
automatically into one share of Class A Common Stock upon sale). An additional
1,156,017 shares of Class A Common Stock were acquired by Clear Channel upon the
exercise of stock options and warrants held by the selling stockholders.

         Under a separate Tender Offer Agreement dated June 1, 1996 between the
Company and Clear Channel, Clear Channel also acquired 231,776 shares of the
Company's Class A Common Stock, of which an aggregate of 199,167 shares were
tendered by employees of the Company upon the exercise of their stock options on
August 5, 1996. An additional 236,700 shares of Class A Common Stock were
tendered to Clear Channel by public shareholders.

         In connection with the change in control of the Company, the employment
of Mr. Cecil Heftel and Mr. Carl Parmer was terminated pursuant to employment
contract settlement agreements with each which provided for a lump sum payment
upon termination (Note 3). In addition, Mr. Heftel and Mr. Parmer entered into
five-year noncompete agreements with the Company in exchange for the payment of
$2.5 million and $4.5 million, respectively. Further, the entire Board of
Directors was replaced with five new members effective August 5, 1996.

  Proposed Merger Plan

         On July 10, 1996, Clear Channel issued a press release announcing its
plans to submit to the Company's Board of Directors a proposal and plan to have
the Company acquire Tichenor Media System, Inc. (Tichenor). Tichenor is a
Dallas-based Spanish language broadcaster with twenty radio stations in six
markets. Under the terms of the merger plan, Tichenor shareholders would
exchange their capital stock for approximately 5.68 million shares of the
Company's Class A Common Stock plus approximately $3.4 million in cash. The
completion of this acquisition, which is scheduled to close during the first
quarter of calendar 1997, is subject to approval by the Federal Trade Commission
and Federal Communications Commission.

3.  DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS / RESTRUCTURING CHARGES

  Discontinued Operations - CRC

         The Company's Board of Directors approved a plan to discontinue the
operations of the radio network owned by the Company's wholly owned subsidiary
Spanish Coast-to-Coast, Ltd., dba, Cadena Radio Centro (CRC) effective August 5,
1996. The charge to operations during the quarter ended September 30, 1996 was
approximately $8.1 million, of which $6.2 million relates to non-cash charges
resulting from the write-off of goodwill. No income tax benefit was realized due
to the Company's availability of net operating loss carryforwards. The loss on
disposal of CRC includes approximately $1.9 million of operating losses from the
measurement date, August 5, 1996, through the disposal date, December 31, 1996.
CRC intends to fulfill its contractual program obligations through the disposal
date, December 31, 1996. CRC's net assets will be used to satisfy outstanding
obligations and remaining property and equipment, which is not material, will be
transferred to other subsidiaries after the disposal date.

  Restructuring Charges

          In connection with the change in control of ownership described in
Note 2, the Company incurred certain one-time restructuring charges totaling
approximately $29.0 million during the quarter ended September 30, 1996. The
material components of the restructuring charges are $18.8 million in payments
to former senior executives relating to employment contract settlements, $4.7
million in broker commissions and transaction costs, $2.5 million in costs
relating to the planned closing of duplicate facilities, plus $1.9 million in
severance relating to employee terminations resulting from the restructuring.

  New Credit Agreement

         On August 5, 1996, concurrent with the completion of the transactions
described in Note 2, the Company borrowed $135 million under a new credit
agreement (New Credit Agreement) with new lenders which provides a total credit
facility of $155 million. The proceeds were used to retire all of the
outstanding debt under the Company's old credit agreement and to pay certain
noncompete and employment contract settlements plus certain transaction and
other costs relating to the Stockholder Purchase Agreement and Tender Offer. In
connection with the retirement of debt outstanding under the Old Credit
Agreement, the Company expensed $7,461,267 relating to unamortized financing
costs. The lenders have a security interest in assets of the Company and the
stock and partnership interests of the Company's subsidiaries. The New Credit
Agreement restricts the payment of dividends and establishes limitations on,
among other things, capital expenditures and additional borrowings. The Company
is also required to maintain certain financial ratios, such as leverage and
interest coverage ratios. The entire principal balance outstanding plus unpaid
interest is due in January 1998. The interest rate on the Company's New Credit
Agreement varies and is based on quoted market prices. Consequently, the
carrying value of the debt



                                       36

<PAGE>   37

approximates fair value.

  Old Credit Agreement

         On March 13, 1996, the Company completed an Amended and Restated Credit
Agreement (Old Credit Agreement) resulting in an increase to the total credit
facilities from $100 million to $175 million and the commencement of principal
payments was deferred until December 31, 1996. Other terms of the Old Credit
Agreement remained substantially the same. On March 25, 1996, the Company
borrowed an additional $20 million under the Old Credit Agreement. The proceeds
were used to fund the acquisition of the assets of WPAT-AM in New York.

         On January 10, 1996, the Company borrowed $1.5 million under its Old
Credit Agreement and issued a $1.5 million non-interest bearing promissory note
in connection with the acquisition of real property in Miami on which an AM
transmitting tower is located. During fiscal 1995, the Company borrowed
$36.5 million under the Old Credit Agreement. Proceeds of these borrowings were
used primarily for business acquisitions, capital expenditures and working
capital.

  Other Non-current Obligations

         In connection with radio program promotions, the Company has, from time
to time, awarded several $1,000,000 prizes. Such prizes are payable to program
prize winners in annual non-interest bearing installments generally ranging from
40 to 50 years. As of September 30, 1996 and 1995, the long-term portion of the
remaining unpaid balance totaled $1,532,214 and $1,579,133, respectively, net of
discount of $4,815,867 and $4,991,737, respectively, and is included in other
non-current obligations in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The
imputed interest rates used range from 10% to 12%.

</TABLE>

         Management expects that, in the normal course of business, leases that
expire will be renewed or replaced by leases on other properties. All real
property leases require the payment of property taxes, maintenance, insurance
and other incidental expenses. Rent expense for the years ended September 30,
1996, 1995 and 1994 was $1,655,506, $1,345,376 and $590,210, respectively.

  Litigation

         On June 14, 1996, Levine v. Cecil Heftel, H. Carl Parmer, Madison
Graves, Richard Heftel, John Mason, Heftel Broadcasting Corporation and Clear
Channel Communications, Inc. (Case No. 15066) was filed in the Court of Chancery
of the State of Delaware in the County of New Castle. This complaint is a
purported class action complaint on behalf of Jeffrey Levine and all other
stockholders of the Company to enjoin the defendants from effectuating the
Tender Offer. The plaintiff also alleges that Cecil Heftel and Carl Parmer,
former directors and executive officers of the Company, breached their fiduciary
duties to the stockholders of the Company by negotiating a settlement of amounts
which would be owed to them under their employment agreements upon a termination
thereof by the Company at the closing of the Tender Offer. The suit seeks the
rescission of the Tender Offer and/or the grant of rescissory damages. In
addition, plaintiff seeks unspecified compensatory damages and an award of
attorneys' fees and costs. The Company has tendered the claims subject to this
suit to its director and officer insurance carriers. The Tender Offer closed
without any action by plaintiffs. The Company has filed a motion to dismiss the
suit and has requested plaintiffs to dismiss the suit voluntary. No action has
been taken on such motion or such request. The Company's management believes the
disposition of this litigation will not have a materially adverse effect on the
Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations.

         In the ordinary course of business, the Company becomes involved in
certain other legal claims and litigation. In the opinion of management, based
upon consultations with legal counsel, the disposition of such litigation
pending against the Company will not have a materially adverse effect on its
consolidated financial position or results of operations.

         The provision for income taxes for the years ended September 30, 1996,
1995 and 1994 consists of the following:

         Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary
differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and
liabilities and available tax net operating loss carryforwards. Temporary
differences and carryforwards at September 30 which give rise to a significant
portion of deferred tax assets and liabilities are as follows:

                                       39

<PAGE>   40

         On January 2, 1996 the Company issued 44,811 shares of common stock to
one of the parties to the acquisition of WLXX-AM in Chicago in accordance with
the terms of the purchase agreement.

  Treasury Stock

         In December 1993, the Company repurchased 810,587 shares of its Class B
Common Stock from certain stockholders for $4,019,735. In September 1996, the
810,587 shares held as treasury stock were retired.

  Preferred Stock

         The Company is authorized to issue 5,000,000 shares of $.001 par value
Preferred Stock, 2,600,000 of which is designated as Series A Preferred Stock
and the remaining 2,400,000 shares are undesignated.

         Series A Preferred Stock dividends are payable quarterly and have a
cumulative annual rate of $.08 per share. As of September 30, 1996, there were
no issued or outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock. As of September 30,
1995, cumulative unpaid dividends totaled $20,138. The Series A Preferred Stock
is superior to common stock in liquidation in the amount of $1 per share plus
cumulative unpaid dividends and is redeemable at the option of the Company at $1
per share plus cumulative unpaid dividends.

         During fiscal 1996, the Company's Board of Directors periodically
approved the payment of cumulative unpaid dividends on the outstanding Series A
Preferred Stock. The aggregate of such dividend payments totaled $40,276.

         In August 1996, the Company redeemed all of the outstanding Series A
Preferred Stock and paid cumulative unpaid dividends through the redemption date
of $2,685.

         In January 1995, the Company redeemed and retired 1,960,290 shares of
its outstanding Series A Preferred Stock owned by the Company's then current
Chairman and Co-Chief Executive Officer and certain of his children. The
redemption price was equal to $1 per share plus cumulative unpaid dividends
through the date of redemption of $2,861,278. The dividends paid included
$1,142,495 of cumulative dividends relating to Preferred Stock retired in June
1992 for which the payment of related cumulative dividends had been deferred
pursuant to an agreement between the Company and the holder of the retired
Preferred Stock.

         In April 1995, the Company paid approximately $251,000 in cumulative
unpaid dividends on its outstanding Series A Preferred Stock held by the
daughter of the Company's then current Chairman and Co-Chief Executive Officer.

  Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation

         In September 1996, the Company's Board of Directors approved a Second
Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (Second Amended Certificate),
which upon filing will increase the total number of authorized shares of the
Company to 105,000,000 shares consisting of three classes of capital stock as
follows; (i) 50,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock, par value $.001 per
share; (ii) 50,000,000 shares of Class B Common Stock, par value $.001 per
share; and (iii) 5,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, par value $.001 per share.
The rights of the Class A and Class B Common Stock will be identical except that
the Class B Common Stock shall have no voting rights, except in certain matters.
The Second Amended Certificate is expected to be filed immediately prior to the 
consummation of the Tichenor Merger, which is expected to close during the first
quarter of calendar 1997.

9.  MANAGEMENT INCENTIVE STOCK OPTIONS

         In January 1995, the Company granted options to purchase 160,000 shares
of common stock to an officer of the Company at an exercise price of $10.50 per
share. The officer subsequently exercised his option to purchase the 160,000
shares and delivered to the Company an 8.75% interest bearing promissory note
due June 2005 as payment for the stock. This note and related accrued interest
were paid in full on August 5, 1996.

  Stock Option Plan

         In July 1994, the Company adopted a stock option plan (Stock Option
Plan) under which a maximum of 750,000 shares of Class A Common Stock may be
issued upon exercise of options granted to directors, officers or other key
employees of the Company or its subsidiaries. The Stock Option Plan is
administered by the Board of Directors or, at the discretion of the Board of
Directors, a committee of not less than two directors. The Board of Directors or
this committee determines employees to whom options will be granted, the timing
and manner of grant, the exercise price, the number of shares and all other
terms of options granted. Generally, options granted under the Stock Option Plan
vest over a two or three year period. In August 1994 the Company granted options
to purchase 5,000 shares each of Class A Common Stock to two directors of the
Company and options to purchase 25,000 shares of Class A Common Stock to an
officer, all at an exercise price of $10.00 per share.

         In December 1995, the Company issued an aggregate of 519,339 stock
options to various employees of the Company under its Stock Option Plan. The
exercise price ranged from $15.25 to $15.50 per share, the market price at the
date of issuance. The options vest over a period ranging from two to three
years.

         On August 5, 1996, all unexercised and outstanding employee stock
options were tendered in connection with the Tender Offer Agreement described in
Note 2. Other fully vested options and warrants were exercised during the months
of June and July 1996. As of September 30, 1996, there were no outstanding
options or warrants.

         Following is a summary of employee stock options and warrants granted,
exercised and outstanding for the three years ended September 30, 1996:

 EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS

         The Company had ten-year Employment Agreements with each of Messrs.
Cecil Heftel and Carl Parmer which were terminated in connection with the
closing of the Tender Offer. See "Item 1. Business - Recent Developments - Clear
Channel Tender Offer."


                                       48

<PAGE>   49

         On August 1, 1995, the Company and Mr. John Kendrick entered into a
three-year Employment Agreement pursuant to which Mr. Kendrick currently
receives a yearly salary of $190,000 (subject to increases in the third year and
each year thereafter) plus bonuses determined by the Company subject to a
minimum bonus of $45,000 for the second year (the minimum bonus is increased in
the third year and each year thereafter). The Company may terminate the
Employment Agreement upon the occurrence of any of the following events: (i)
fraud, negligence, wilful misconduct or embezzlement, (ii) Mr. Kendrick is
indicted or convicted of a crime constituting a felony, (iii) any act or
omission by Mr. Kendrick which causes a material adverse effect on the Company's
business or jeopardizes any FCC license for any of the Company's radio stations,
(iv) Mr. Kendrick fails to perform his duties within 15 business days after
notice, (v) unlawful drug use, (vi) receipt of payments or gifts in excess of
$250 from advertisers for Mr. Kendrick's own benefit, or (vii) commission of a
crime of moral turpitude. If such a termination occurs, Mr. Kendrick will be
entitled to receive all amounts payable by the Company under his Employment
Agreement to the date of termination. If the Company terminates the Employment
Agreement for a reason other than the occurrence of the events set forth in the
Employment Agreement, Mr. Kendrick will be entitled to receive his salary and
minimum bonus through the later of the one year anniversary of the termination
date or the end of the term of the Employment Agreement (the "Period") (which
the Company may pay in a lump sum payment equal to the present value of such
amounts) and monthly premiums payable for allowing Mr. Kendrick and his family
to participate in the Company's health insurance for the shorter of the Period
or the maximum COBRA continuation coverage period mandated by law. At the end of
the initial three year term, the Employment Agreement is automatically extended
for one year unless the Company gives notice of non-renewal at least six months
prior to the end of the initial three year period. If a change in control of the
Company occurs, the term of the Employment Agreement is automatically extended
for three years from the date of the change of control. The Tender Offer was
deemed a change of control, and therefore the term of the Employment Agreement
has been automatically extended to August 4, 1999.

of the Company, as part of his employment agreement the right to purchase
188,925 shares of Class B Common Stock at a per share price of $4.51. In
connection with entering into Mr. Parmer's Employment Agreement in December
1993, the Company issued to Mr. Parmer a warrant to purchase 188,925 shares of
Class B Common Stock at the same exercise price as a replacement of the rights
of Mr. Parmer to purchase the 188,925 shares of Class B Common Stock under his
previous employment agreement. On August 3, 1994, Mr. Parmer exercised these
warrants and in connection with such exercise, the Company made a loan in the
amount of $1.25 million, approximately $852,000 of which was used to pay the
exercise price of the warrants and the remainder of which was used to pay income
taxes payable by Mr. Parmer upon exercise of the warrants. The loan accrued
interest at a rate of 7.67% per annum and was due on August 3, 2004. All amounts
owed were repaid on August 5, 1996.

         On June 3, 1993, Messrs. Carl Parmer and Richard Heftel, a former
director of the Company and the current general manager of the Company's Los
Angeles stations, each borrowed $366,000 from the Company and used the proceeds
to purchase 94,462 shares of Class B Common Stock from a third-party
stockholder. These loans accrued interest at a rate of 4.5% per annum. Interest
and principal were due on June 2, 2002. On October 8, 1993, Mr. Carl Parmer
borrowed $1 million from the Company and used the proceeds to 

                                       50

purchase 226,695 shares of Class B Common Stock. This loan accrued interest at
4.5% per annum. Interest and principal were due on October 8, 2003. All amounts
owed were repaid on August 5, 1996.

         On December 30, 1993, the Company repurchased 220,000 shares of Class B
Common Stock from the daughter of Mr. Cecil Heftel. The purchase price for these
shares was payable in 60 installments of $10,000 beginning in August 1994 and
one installment of $1 million on the first day of the month after the month in
which the 60th installment is paid. On August 5, 1996, the Company repaid this
obligation in full.

         During the year ended September 30, 1996, the Company advanced funds to
Heftel Management Group, of which Mr. Cecil Heftel is the sole beneficial owner.
These advances did not bear interest. On August 5, 1996, all of such advances
were repaid.

         On January 10, 1995, the Company granted to Mr. Carl Parmer a warrant
to purchase 160,000 shares of Class A Common Stock at an exercise price of
$10.50 per share (which was the closing price for the Class A Common Stock on
January 9, 1995). On January 24, 1995, Mr. Parmer exercised this warrant in
full. The exercise price was payable on or before June 30, 1995. On June 30,
1995, Mr. Parmer borrowed $1,680,000 from the Company to pay the exercise price
and granted to the Company a security interest in these shares to secure his
obligation to repay the loan. This loan accrued interest at 8.75% per annum. All
amounts owed were repaid on August 5, 1996.

         On January 10, 1996, pursuant to an Agreement of Purchase and Sale,
dated September 7, 1995, between the Company and Mambisa Broadcasting
Corporation ("Mambisa"), the Company purchased the entire parcel of real
property on which the radio transmission towers for WAQI-AM (the "WAQI Towers")
are located for approximately $1.5 million in cash and a note for approximately
$1.5 million (the "Note"). The Company has the right to subdivide such parcel
and resell to Mambisa the portion of the parcel on which the WAQI Towers are not
located for the same per acre price paid by the Company to Mambisa. The parties
currently are attempting to complete such a subdivision. The Note is due on the
later of the date on which all rights to subdivide the parcel expire or the date
on which the resale of the subdivided portion of the parcel is completed.
Amancio Victor Suarez and Charles Fernandez, former directors of the Company,
own part of Mambisa.

         On December 3, 1995, the Company, Marcos A. Rodriguez, Jr.
("Rodriguez") and Hispanic Coalition, Inc. ("HCI") entered into certain
agreements relating to HCI and a new FM radio station in Haltom City, Texas (for
which HCI was seeking a construction permit from the FCC) (the "Haltom Station")
(the "Haltom City Agreements"). As a result of disputes relating to the Haltom
City Agreements, Rodriguez and the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement
pursuant to which the Company released all claims and rights it may have to
acquire the construction permit for the Haltom Station, including all rights
under the Haltom City Agreements. Mr. Cecil Heftel and the Company entered into
an agreement under which Mr. Heftel agreed to indemnify the Company against any
losses arising out of the Haltom City Agreements. The Company has sent written
demand to Mr. Heftel for indemnification of $1,383,187.

         In connection with the Tender Offer, each of Messrs. Cecil Heftel and
Carl Parmer entered into agreements not to compete and a Settlement Agreement
relating to the termination of their employment. Approximately $25.8 million was
paid to Messrs. Heftel and Parmer under these agreements (see "Item 1. Business
- Recent Developments - Clear Channel Tender Offer").
