**Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements**

Our disclosure and analysis in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q concerning our operations, cash flows, and financial position contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These forward-looking statements do not relay historical facts, but rather reflect our current expectations concerning future operations, results, and events. All statements other than statements of historical fact are "forward-looking statements" including any projections of earnings, revenues or other financial items; any statements of the plans, strategies and objectives of management for future operations; any statements concerning proposed new activities, services or developments; any statements regarding future economic conditions or performance; any statements of belief; and any statements of assumptions underlying any of the foregoing. You can identify some of these forward-looking statements by our use of words such as "anticipates," "expects," "intends," "plans," "believes," "seeks," "likely," "may," "estimates" and similar expressions. You can also identify a forward-looking statement in that such statements discuss matters in a way that anticipates operations, results or events that have not already occurred but rather will or may occur in future periods. We cannot guarantee that we will achieve any forward-looking plans, intentions, results, operations, or expectations. Because these statements apply to future events, they are subject to risks and uncertainties, some of which are beyond our control and could cause actual results to differ materially from those forecasted or anticipated in the forward-looking statements. These risks, uncertainties and factors include (in no particular order), but are not limited to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• recession, economic volatility, financial market unpredictability and fluctuations in the United States and other world economies that may affect our business and financial condition, and the business and financial conditions of our advertisers;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• our degree of leverage, certain cash commitments related thereto, and potential inability to finance strategic transactions, including potential refinance transactions, given fluctuations in market conditions;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• fluctuations in the local economies of the markets in which we operate (particularly our largest markets, Atlanta; Baltimore; Charlotte; Dallas; Houston; Indianapolis; and Washington, DC) or fluctuations within individual business sectors experiencing a downturn even in the absence of a broader recession could negatively impact our ability to meet our cash needs;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• increased costs due to tariffs, inflation, or any changes in music royalty fees;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• risks associated with the implementation and execution of our business diversification strategy, including any strategic initiatives;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• risks associated with our investments or potential investment in gaming or other businesses;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• regulation by the Federal Communications Commission ("FCC") relative to maintaining our broadcasting licenses, enacting media ownership rules, enforcing of indecency rules, and any changes in enforcement priorities;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• changes in our key personnel and on-air talent;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• increases in competition for and in the costs of our programming and content, including on-air talent and content production or acquisitions availability/costs;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• financial losses that may be incurred due to impairment charges against our broadcasting licenses, goodwill, and other intangible assets;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• increased competition for advertising revenues with other radio stations, broadcast and cable television, newspapers and magazines, outdoor advertising, direct mail, internet radio, satellite radio, smart phones, tablets, and other wireless media, the internet, social media, and other forms of advertising;

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i09a1da13eccd4c4da0982451d9ff6d70_7)</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the impact of our acquisitions, dispositions, and similar transactions, as well as consolidation in industries in which we and our advertisers operate;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• public health crises, epidemics and pandemics, or extreme weather events and their impact on our business and the businesses of our advertisers, including disruptions and inefficiencies in the supply chain;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• developments and/or changes in laws and regulations, such as the California Consumer Privacy Act or other similar federal or state regulations through legislative action and revised rules and standards;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• disruptions to our technology network including computer systems and software, whether by human-caused or other disruptions of our operating systems, structures, or equipment, including as we further develop alternative work arrangements, as well as natural events such as pandemic, severe weather, fires, floods, and earthquakes;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• material weaknesses identified in our internal control over financial reporting which, if not remediated, could result in material misstatements in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• failure to meet the continued listing standards of NASDAQ Stock Market ("NASDAQ"), which could cause our common stock to be delisted, and which could have a material adverse effect on the liquidity and market price of our common stock and expose the Company to litigation; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• other factors mentioned in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") including the factors discussed in detail in Part I, "Item 1A. Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 ("Form 10-K") filed on March 27, 2025.

You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which reflect our views based only on information currently available to us as of the date of this report. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements because of new information, future events or otherwise.

**URBAN ONE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES**

**NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

**1. ORGANIZATION**

Urban One, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and its subsidiaries (collectively, "Urban One," the "Company," "we," "our" and/or "us") is an urban-oriented, multi-media company that primarily targets African-American and urban consumers. Our core business is our radio broadcasting franchise which is the largest radio broadcasting operation that primarily targets African-American and urban listeners. As of September 30, 2025, the Company owned and/or operated 74 independently formatted, revenue producing broadcast stations (including 57 FM or AM stations, 15 HD stations, and the 2 low power television stations the Company operates), located in 13 of the most populous African-American markets in the United States. While a core source of our revenue has historically been and remains the sale of local and national advertising for broadcast on our radio stations, our strategy is to operate the premier multi-media entertainment and information content platform targeting African-American and urban consumers. Thus, the Company has diversified its revenue streams by making acquisitions and investments in other complementary media properties. Our diverse media and entertainment interests include TV One, LLC ("TV One"), which operates two cable television networks targeting African-American and urban viewers, TV One and CLEO TV; our 94.6% ownership interest in Reach Media, Inc. ("Reach Media") which operates the Rickey Smiley Morning Show and our other syndicated programming assets, including the Get Up! Mornings with Erica Campbell Show and the DL Hughley Show; and Interactive One, LLC ("Interactive One"), our wholly owned digital platform serving the African-American community through social content, news, information, and entertainment websites, including its iONE Digital, Cassius and Bossip, HipHopWired and MadameNoire digital platforms and brands. Through our national multi-media operations, the Company provides advertisers with a unique and powerful delivery mechanism to communicate with African-American and urban audiences.

Our core radio broadcasting franchise operates under the brand "Radio One." The Company also operates other brands, such as TV One, CLEO TV, Reach Media, iONE Digital, and One Solution, while developing additional branding reflective of our diverse media operations and our targeting of African-American and urban audiences.

As part of our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, consistent with our financial reporting structure and how the Company currently manages its businesses, the Company has provided selected financial information on the Company's four reportable segments: (i) Radio Broadcasting; (ii) Reach Media; (iii) Digital; and (iv) Cable Television. See Note 12 – *Segment Information* of our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion, including changes in our segment structure.

**2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES**

***Basis of Presentation***

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") and under the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") for interim financial information. In management's opinion, the interim financial data presented herein includes all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair statement of its financial position as of September 30, 2025, its results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related financial information should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto as of and for the year ended December 31, 2024 included in the Company's Form 10-K. There have been no significant changes to the Company's accounting policies as described in Note 2 *- Summary of Significant Accounting Policies*, in the notes to the consolidated financial statements in Item 8 of Part II of Form 10-K, other than the change in useful lives of the trade name TV One (the "TV One Trade Name") and radio broadcasting licenses and the determination of reporting units within the Radio Broadcasting business (see further discussion below).

All amounts presented in these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are expressed in thousands of U.S. dollars, except share and per share amounts and unless otherwise noted.

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i09a1da13eccd4c4da0982451d9ff6d70_7)</u>

The Company's results are subject to seasonal fluctuations and, typically, revenues are generally lowest in the first calendar quarter of the year. Due to this seasonality, the results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year. The Company experiences further seasonality in odd versus even years as there tends to be more political activity in even years which can have a positive impact on advertising revenues.

***Principles of Consolidation***

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts and operations of Urban One and subsidiaries in which Urban One has a controlling financial interest, which is generally determined to exist when the Company holds a majority voting interest. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Non-controlling interests have been recognized where a controlling interest exists, but the Company owns less than 100% of the controlled entity.

***Reclassification***

Certain amounts in the prior year financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current quarter presentation. Specifically, Corporate selling, general and administrative expenses have been collapsed with Selling, general and administrative expenses in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.

***Radio Broadcasting Licenses and TV One Trade Name***

In connection with the Company's past acquisitions, a portion of the purchase price was allocated to radio broadcasting licenses and the TV One Trade Name. Historically, these intangible assets were not amortized but tested annually for impairment at the reporting unit level and accounting unit level on October 1 of each year, or more frequently when events or changes in circumstances or other conditions suggest impairment may have occurred. Impairment exists when the asset carrying values exceed their respective fair values. The excess is recorded to operations as an impairment charge.

The Company tests for radio broadcasting license impairment at the accounting unit level using the income approach, which involves, but is not limited to, judgmental estimates and assumptions about market revenue and projected revenue growth by market, market share, operating profit margin, discount rate and terminal growth rate where applicable.

As of March 31, 2025 and May 31, 2025, the Company's projected gross market revenues and operating profit margin declined within the Radio Broadcasting segment creating a triggering event indicating that the fair value of the Company's radio broadcasting licenses were more likely than not to be less than its carrying value.

The Company recognized an impairment loss of approximately $6.4 million associated with five radio markets within the Radio Broadcasting segment, included in impairment of goodwill and intangible assets, on the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations during the three months ended March 31, 2025.

The Company recognized an impairment loss of approximately $121.3 million associated with twelve radio markets within the Radio Broadcasting segment, included in impairment of goodwill and intangible assets, on the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations during the three months ended June 30, 2025.

Due to industry and macro-economic conditions along with ongoing declines in national and local radio listenership, and forecasted cash flows for Radio Broadcasting, the Company reassessed the useful life for the broadcasting licenses. As a result of the reassessment, the Company concluded that the useful life should change from indefinite-lived to finite-lived intangible assets effective June 1, 2025. The Company has adopted an accelerated amortization method and will amortize the assets over a range of 9 to 18-year period. This was considered a change in estimate, was accounted for prospectively, and resulted in amortization expense included in depreciation and amortization, on the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations. See further information in Note 8 - *Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets*.

Due to industry and macro-economic conditions along with ongoing subscriber churn, and forecasted cash flows for TV One, the Company reassessed the useful life for the TV One Trade Name. As a result of the reassessment, the Company concluded that the useful life should change from indefinite-lived to a finite-lived intangible asset effective January 1, 2025. The Company has adopted an accelerated amortization method and will amortize this asset over a 20-year period. This was considered a change in estimate, was accounted for prospectively, and resulted in amortization expense included in depreciation and amortization, on the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations. See further information in Note 8 - *Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets*.

***Goodwill***

Goodwill consists of the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of tangible and identifiable intangible net assets acquired. The Company assesses our goodwill for impairment at the reporting unit level. A reporting unit is an operating segment or a business one level below that operating segment if discrete financial information is available and regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker. Goodwill is not amortized but is tested annually for impairment at the reporting unit level on October 1 of each year, or more frequently when events or changes in circumstances or other conditions suggest impairment may have occurred. Impairment exists when the asset carrying values exceed their respective fair values. The excess is recorded to operations as an impairment charge. In testing for goodwill impairment, the Company relies primarily on the income approach that estimates the fair value of the reporting unit, which involves, but is not limited to, judgmental estimates and assumptions about revenue growth rates, operating profit margins, discount rate and terminal growth rate. The Company performs a market-based analysis by comparing the estimated fair value of the reporting units to the market capitalization of the Company. The Company recognizes an impairment charge to operations in the amount that the reporting unit's carrying value exceeds its fair value. Any impairment charge recognized cannot exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit.

As of May 31, 2025, an overall decline in revenue and operating profit margin created a triggering event indicating the fair value of the Company's Radio Broadcasting, Reach Media and Digital reporting units were more likely than not to be less than their carrying value. Therefore, the Company performed interim quantitative assessments at ten of the reporting units containing goodwill. During the three months ended June 30, 2025, the Company recorded impairment losses of approximately $4.9 million and $3.9 million to reduce the carrying value of our Digital and Radio Broadcasting goodwill balances, respectively.

On July 1, 2025, the Company determined the components of our Radio Broadcasting operating segment represent a single reporting unit. The change was primarily driven by the continued integration of the individual markets under a centralized leadership structure resulting in interdependent processes across Radio Broadcasting. The Company utilized a quantitative impairment assessment immediately before the change and performed a qualitative assessment immediately thereafter.

As of September 30, 2025, the Company evaluated various factors, events or circumstances, including macroeconomic conditions, industry and market considerations, overall financial performance and other relevant reporting unit specific events. Based on our review, the Company did not identify any triggering events during the three months ended September 30, 2025.

***Use of Estimates***

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions. The most significant estimates and assumptions are used in determining: (i) estimates of future cash flows, revenue growth, operating profit margin market share, terminal growth rate used to evaluate and recognize impairments; (ii) useful lives of radio broadcasting licenses and TV One Trade Name (iii) estimates of fair value of the Employment Agreement Award (as defined in Note 5 - *Fair Value Measurements*) and the redeemable non-controlling interest in Reach Media; and (iv) deferred taxes and related valuation allowance, including uncertain tax positions.

These estimates and assumptions may affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements. The Company bases these estimates on historical experience, the current economic environment or various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. However, economic uncertainty, changes in consumer behavior, and any disruption in financial markets increase the possibility that actual results may differ from these estimates. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically, and the effects are reflected prospectively in the period they occur.

***Allowance for Expected Credit Loss***

The Company maintains allowances for expected credit losses resulting from the expected failure or inability of our customers to make required payments. The Company recognizes the allowance for expected credit losses at inception and reassess quarterly based on management's expectation of the asset's collectability. Management estimates credit losses on our trade accounts receivable, utilizing a current expected credit loss impairment model. The Company estimates the expected credit losses measured over the contractual life of an asset considering relevant historical loss information, credit quality of the customer base, current economic conditions, and forecasts of future economic conditions. Large individual receivables for which there is an indication of increased credit risk are individually assessed for loss allowances.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i09a1da13eccd4c4da0982451d9ff6d70_7)</u>

In determining the allowance for expected credit losses, management groups similar types of financial assets with consistent risk characteristics. Pools are determined generally based on the Company's four reportable segments, with sub-segmentation between local and national advertising customers in the Radio Broadcasting and Digital segments. The risk characteristics of the financial asset portfolios are monitored by management and reviewed periodically. The forecasts for future economic conditions are based on several factors including, but not limited to, changes in external economic forecasts and current collection rates. Our estimates of the allowance for expected credit losses may not be indicative of our actual credit losses requiring additional charges to be incurred to reflect the actual amount collected. Past due trade accounts receivable balances are written off against our allowance for expected credit losses when our internal collection efforts have been unsuccessful.

The changes in the allowance for expected credit loss are as follows:

***Contract Assets and Liabilities*** 

Contract assets and contract liabilities that are not separately stated in the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2025, and consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2024 were as follows:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | **September 30, 2025** | **December 31, 2024** |
| | **(In thousands)** | **(In thousands)** |
| Contract assets: |  |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Unbilled receivables | $4107 | $5969 |
| Contract liabilities: |  |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Customer advances and unearned income | $2798 | $2200 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Reserve for audience deficiency | 15228 | 22383 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Unearned event income | 6937 | 1152 |

---

Unbilled receivables consist of earned revenue that has not yet been billed. Contract assets are included in trade accounts receivable, net on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. Customer advances and unearned income represent advance payments by customers for future services under contract that are generally fulfilled in the near term. For advertising sold based on audience guarantees, audience deficiency typically results in an obligation to deliver additional advertising units to the customer, generally within one year of the campaign end date. To the extent that audience guarantees are not met, a reserve for audience deficiency is recorded until such a time that the audience guarantee has been satisfied. Unearned event income represents payments by customers for upcoming events. Contract liabilities are included in other current liabilities on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.

All of the customer advances and unearned income as of January 1, 2025 was recognized as revenue during the nine months ended September 30, 2025. For the reserve for audience deficiency as of January 1, 2025, approximately $11.5 million was recognized as revenue during the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

The increase in unearned event income during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 is primarily related to the timing of the 2025 Fantastic Voyage annual cruise as defined in Note 7 - *Related Party Transactions* which is expected to occur in the fourth quarter of 2025.

For customer advances and unearned income as of January 1, 2024, approximately $2.8 million was recognized as revenue during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. For the reserve for audience deficiency as of January 1, 2024, approximately $2.2 million was recognized as revenue during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. For unearned event income as of January 1, 2024, approximately $4.9 million was recognized as revenue during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 primarily driven by the 2024 Fantastic Voyage annual cruise.

**4. EARNINGS PER SHARE**

Basic and diluted earnings per share ("EPS") attributable to common stockholders is presented in conformity with the two-class method required for participating securities: Class A, Class B, Class C and Class D common stock. The rights of the holders of Class A, Class B, Class C and Class D common stock are identical, except with respect to voting, conversion, and transfer rights.

The undistributed earnings or losses are allocated based on the contractual participation rights of Class A, Class B, Class C and Class D common shares as if the earnings or losses for the year have been distributed. As the liquidation and dividend rights are identical, the undistributed earnings or losses are allocated on a proportionate basis, and as such, diluted and basic earnings per share is the same for each class of common stock under the two-class method.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, there were approximately 6.3 million and 6.1 million potentially dilutive securities, respectively, that were not included in the computation of diluted EPS, because to do so would have been antidilutive for the periods presented. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 there were approximately 6.6 million and 5.6 million potentially dilutive securities, respectively excluded from the computation of diluted EPS.

**5. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS**

The Company reports financial and non-financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring and non-recurring basis under the provisions of ASC 820, "*Fair Value Measurement*" ("ASC 820") which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.

As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the fair values of the Company's financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are categorized as follows:

<sup>(a)</sup> On April 3, 2024, the Company entered into an employment agreement ("2024 Employment Agreement") with Alfred C. Liggins, III, President and Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") pursuant to which he is eligible to receive an award (the "Employment Agreement Award") amount equal to approximately 4.2% of any proceeds from distributions or other liquidity events in excess of the return of the Company's aggregate investment in TV One. The Company reviews the factors underlying this award at the end of each reporting period including the valuation of TV One (based on the estimated enterprise fair value of TV One as determined by the income approach using a discounted cash flow analysis and the market approach using comparable public company multiples). Significant inputs to the discounted cash flow analysis include revenue growth rates, future operating profit, and discount rate. Significant inputs to the market approach include publicly held peer companies and recurring EBITDA multiples. The terms of the 2024 Employment Agreement were effective as of January 1, 2022 and continued until December 31, 2024 (the "Initial Term"). After expiration of the Initial Term, the term of the 2024 Employment Agreement extends automatically for additional one (1) year periods, unless either party provides written notice of its/his intention not to renew to the other party at least sixty (60) days before the expiration of the Initial Term or any renewal term of this Agreement, as applicable.

<sup>(b)</sup> The fair value is measured using a discounted cash flow methodology. Significant inputs to the discounted cash flow analysis include revenue growth rates, future operating profit margins, and discount rate.

<sup>(c)</sup> The Company measures and reports its cash equivalents that are invested in money market funds and valued based on quoted market prices which approximate cost due to their short-term maturities.

<sup>(a)</sup> Any significant increases or decreases in unobservable inputs could result in significantly higher or lower fair value measurements. Changes in fair value measurements, if significant, may affect the Company's performance of cash flows.

<sup>(b)</sup> The Company did not utilize the market approach to measure the fair value of the redeemable non-controlling interests.

Certain assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis using Level 3 inputs as defined in ASC 820. These assets are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to fair value adjustments only in certain circumstances. Included in this category are goodwill, radio broadcasting licenses and other intangible assets, net, which are written down to fair value when they are determined to be impaired, as well as content assets that are periodically written down to net realizable value. See Note 8 – *Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets* of the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion.

***Financial Instruments***

As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company's financial instruments consisted of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, trade accounts receivable, its asset-backed credit facility, and long-term debt. The carrying amounts approximated fair value for each of these financial instruments as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, except for the Company's long-term debt, which is disclosed in Note 9 - *Long-Term Debt*.

<sup>(1)</sup> Includes the allocation of goodwill relating to the reclassification of the portion of the Company's CTV offering previously within the Digital reportable segment to our Cable Television reportable segment. See Note *12* - *Segment Information* for information on this segment reclassification.

As of May 31, 2025, an overall decline in revenue and operating profit margin created a triggering event indicating the fair value of the Company's Radio Broadcasting, Reach Media and Digital reportable units were more likely than not to be less than its carrying value. Therefore, the Company performed interim quantitative assessments at ten of the reporting units containing goodwill. During the three months ended June 30, 2025, the Company recorded impairment losses of approximately $4.9 million and $3.9 million to reduce the carrying value of our Digital and Radio Broadcasting goodwill balances, respectively.

On July 1, 2025, the Company determined the components of our Radio Broadcasting operating segment represent a single reporting unit. See further information in Note 2 *- Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.*

***Radio Broadcasting Licenses***

As of May 31, 2025, the Company's projected gross market revenues and operating profit margin declined within the Radio Broadcasting segment creating a triggering event indicating that the fair value of certain of the Company's radio broadcasting licenses were more likely than not to be less than its carrying value.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i09a1da13eccd4c4da0982451d9ff6d70_7)</u>

To determine the fair value of the broadcasting licenses, the Company utilized the income approach which values a license by calculating the value of a hypothetical startup company that initially has no assets except the asset to be valued (the broadcasting license). The Company performed a discounted cash flow analysis for broadcasting licenses across relevant radio markets. The key assumptions used in the discounted cash flow analysis for broadcasting licenses include market revenue and projected revenue growth by market, market share, operating profit margin, and discount rate.

Based on this analysis, the Company recognized an impairment loss of approximately $121.3 million associated with twelve radio markets within the Radio Broadcasting segment, included in impairment of goodwill and intangible assets, on the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations during the three months ended June 30, 2025.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company recognized impairment loss of approximately $127.8 million within the Radio Broadcasting segment, included in impairment of goodwill and intangible assets, on the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations.

Below are the key assumptions used in the income approach model for estimating the fair value of the broadcasting licenses for the twelve radio markets in the most recent interim impairment assessment performed as of May 31, 2025.

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Radio Broadcasting Licenses** | **As of May 31, 2025** |
| Discount rate | 9.5% |
| Revenue growth rate range | (3.2)% - 0.3% |
| Market share range | 0.8% - 33.0% |
| Operating profit margin range | 0.8% - 30.0% |

Due to industry and macro-economic conditions along with ongoing declines in national and local radio listenership, and forecasted cash flows for Radio Broadcasting, the Company reassessed the useful life for the broadcasting licenses. As a result of the reassessment, the Company concluded that the useful life should change from indefinite-lived to finite-lived intangible assets effective June 1, 2025. The Company has adopted an accelerated amortization method and will amortize the assets with a carrying value of approximately $130.0 million as of June 1, 2025 over a 9 to 18-year period This was considered a change in estimate, was accounted for prospectively, and resulted in amortization expense of approximately $3.8 million and $5.1 million included in depreciation and amortization, on the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively.

The following table presents the changes in the Company's radio broadcasting licenses carrying value during the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

***TV One Trade Name***

Due to industry and macro-economic conditions along with ongoing subscriber churn, and forecasted cash flows for TV One, the Company reassessed the useful life for the trade name TV One (the "TV One Trade Name"). As a result of the reassessment, the Company concluded that the useful life should change from indefinite-lived to a finite-lived intangible asset effective January 1, 2025. The Company has adopted an accelerated amortization method and started to amortize this asset with a carrying value of approximately $26.6 million as of January 1, 2025 over a 20-year period. This was considered a change in estimate, was accounted for prospectively, and resulted in amortization expense of approximately $0.6 million and $1.9 million included in depreciation and amortization, on the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively.

Future estimated amortization expense related to the TV One Trade Name for the years 2025 through 2030 and thereafter is as follows:

The 2028 Notes had a fair value of approximately $258.1 million as of September 30, 2025. The fair value of the 2028 Notes, classified as a Level 2 instrument, was determined based on the trading values of this instrument in an inactive market as of the reporting date.

***Asset-Backed Credit Facilities***

On February 19, 2021, the Company closed on its current asset backed credit facility (the "Current ABL Facility"). The Current ABL Facility is governed by a credit agreement by and among the Company, the other borrowers party thereto, the lenders party thereto from time to time and Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent. The Current ABL Facility provides for up to $50.0 million revolving loan borrowings in order to provide for the working capital needs and general corporate requirements of the Company. The Current ABL Facility also provides for a letter of credit facility up to $5.0 million as a part of the overall $50.0 million in capacity. As of each of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, there was no balance outstanding on the Current ABL Facility.

At the Company's election, the interest rate on borrowings under the Current ABL Facility are based on either (i) the then applicable margin relative to Base Rate Loans (as defined in the Current ABL Facility) or (ii) until the Waiver and Amendment (as defined below) took effect, the then applicable margin relative to LIBOR Loans (as defined in the Current ABL Facility) corresponding to the average availability of the Company for the most recently completed fiscal quarter.

Advances under the Current ABL Facility are limited to (a) eighty-five percent (85%) of the amount of Eligible Accounts (as defined in the Current ABL Facility), less the amount, if any, of the Dilution Reserve (as defined in the Current ABL Facility), minus (b) the sum of (i) the Bank Product Reserve (as defined in the Current ABL Facility), plus (ii) the AP and Deferred Revenue Reserve (as defined in the Current ABL Facility), plus (iii) without duplication, the aggregate amount of all other reserves, if any, established by the Administrative Agent.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i09a1da13eccd4c4da0982451d9ff6d70_7)</u>

All obligations under the Current ABL Facility are secured by a first priority lien on all (i) deposit accounts (related to accounts receivable), (ii) accounts receivable, and (iii) all other property which constitutes ABL Priority Collateral (as defined in the Current ABL Facility). The obligations are also guaranteed by all material restricted subsidiaries of the Company. The Current ABL Facility includes a covenant requiring the Company's fixed charge coverage ratio, as defined in the agreement, to not be less than 1.00 to 1.00. The Company is in compliance with its covenant as of September 30, 2025.

Additionally, under a Waiver and Amendment dated April 30, 2023 (the "Waiver and Amendment"), the Current ABL Facility was amended to provide that from and after the date thereof, any request for a new London Interbank Offer Rate, ("LIBOR Loan") (as defined in the Current ABL Facility), for a continuation of an existing LIBOR Loan (as defined in the Current ABL Facility) or for a conversion of a Loan to a LIBOR Loan (as defined in the Current ABL Facility) shall be deemed to be a request for a loan bearing interest at Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate Data ("SOFR") (as defined in the Amended Current ABL Facility) (the "SOFR Interest Rate Change"). As the Company was undrawn under the Current ABL Facility as of the date of the Waiver and Amendment, the SOFR Interest Rate Change would only bear upon future borrowings by the Company such that they bear an interest rate relating to the secured overnight financing rate. These provisions of the Waiver and Amendment are intended to transition loans under the Current ABL Facility to the new secured overnight financing rate as the benchmark rate.

The Current ABL Facility matures on the earlier to occur of: (a) the date that is five years from the effective date of the Current ABL Facility, and (b) 91 days prior to the maturity of the Company's 2028 Notes.

The Current ABL Facility is subject to the terms of the Revolver Intercreditor Agreement (as defined in the Current ABL Facility) by and among the Administrative Agent and Wilmington Trust, National Association.

***Future Minimum Principal Payments***

Future scheduled minimum principal payments of debt as of September 30, 2025, are as follows:

**10. INCOME TAXES**

The Company uses the estimated annual effective tax rate method under ASC 740-270, "*Interim Reporting*" to calculate the provision for income taxes. The Company recorded a benefit from income taxes of approximately $6.8 million on pre-tax loss from unaudited condensed consolidated operations of approximately $99.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. This results in an effective tax rate of approximately 6.9%, which includes approximately $14.6 million of discrete tax expense related to valuation allowance for net operating losses, and approximately $6.6 million of discrete tax expense related to the impact of the change of accounting estimate for radio broadcasting licenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The estimated annual effective tax rate differs from the federal statutory tax rate of 21% primarily due to the impact of state taxes, non-deductible expenses, and the impact of the valuation allowance against disallowed interest expense and net operating losses.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i09a1da13eccd4c4da0982451d9ff6d70_7)</u>

In accordance with ASC 740, "*Accounting for Income Taxes*," the Company continues to evaluate the realizability of its net deferred tax assets ("DTAs") by assessing the future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company's financial statements or tax returns, tax planning strategies, and future profitability. Management considers all available evidence, both negative and positive, that could impact the future realization of these DTAs including the continued impact of impairment charges on our operating results. As of September 30, 2025, the Company maintains a valuation allowance on its DTAs, most significantly its net operating losses and disallowed interest expense assets, after taking into consideration future taxable income from reversing deferred tax liabilities. In conjunction with the change in accounting estimate for radio broadcasting licenses described in Note 2 – *Summary of Significant Accounting Policies*, the Company's estimate of the realization of certain indefinite-lived intangible assets were re-evaluated.

On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act ("OBBBA") was enacted in the U.S. The OBBBA includes significant provisions, such as the permanent extension of certain expiring provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, modifications to the international tax framework and the restoration of favorable tax treatment for certain business provisions. The legislation has multiple effective dates, with certain provisions effective in 2025 and others implemented through 2027. The Company has concluded OBBBA will not have a material impact on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

The Company is subject to continuous examination of the Company's income tax returns by the Internal Revenue Service and other domestic tax authorities. The Company believes that an adequate provision has been made for any adjustments that may result from tax examinations.

**11. STOCKHOLDERS EQUITY**

***Reverse Stock Split***

On February 21, 2025, our Board of Directors authorized a reverse stock split across all classes of the Company's outstanding common stock. The Board's authorization was subject to the approval of the Company's stockholders and was approved by the stockholders on June 18, 2025. In its authorization, the Board reserved the right to abandon the reverse stock split, even if approved by the stockholders, if the Board, in its discretion, determines that the reverse stock split is no longer in the best interests of the Company or its stockholders. If implemented, the ratio and timing will be determined by the Audit Committee of the Board. In order to remain in compliance with the listing requirements of the NASDAQ Capital Market, the Company may have to implement the reverse stock split prior to February 9, 2026 if its Class D common stock trading under the symbol "UONEK" does not trade at or above $1.00 per share for 10 consecutive business days prior to that date.

***Stock Repurchase Program***

From time to time, the Company may repurchase its equity securities in open market purchases. Under open authorizations, repurchases of the Company's equity securities may be made from time to time in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. Repurchased equity securities are retired when repurchased. The timing and extent of any repurchases will depend upon prevailing market conditions, the trading price of the Company's outstanding equity securities and other factors, and subject to restrictions under applicable law.

On September 27, 2022, the Compensation Committee authorized the repurchase of up to $0.5 million worth of shares in the aggregate from employees who want to sell in connection with the Company's most recent employee stock grant (the "Employee Stock Repurchase Authorization"). During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company did not repurchase any shares of Class A common stock under the Stock Grant Authorization. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company repurchased 98,976 shares of Class D Common Stock for approximately $0.1 million at an average price of approximately $0.98 per share. After giving effect to the above transactions, the Employee Stock Repurchase Authorization has approximately $0.1 million remaining.

On June 10, 2024, the Company's Board of Directors approved a share repurchase authorization to repurchase up to $20.0 million of the Company's outstanding Class A and/or Class D common stock (collectively, the "2024 Stock Repurchase Program"). The 2024 Stock Repurchase Program will remain in effect for up to 24 months or until the authorization is exhausted.

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i09a1da13eccd4c4da0982451d9ff6d70_7)</u>

The following table details our stock repurchases under the 2024 Stock Repurchase Program during the nine months ended September 30, 2025:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | **Class A** | **Class D** |
| Shares of common stock repurchased | 851884 | 998017 |

| Total cost | $1343784 | $716580 |

---

After giving effect to the above transaction and prior activity, the 2024 Stock Repurchase Program has approximately $11.4 million remaining under the authorization.

**12. SEGMENT INFORMATION**

Reportable segments represent components of a company for which separate financial information is available that is regularly reviewed by the Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM"), which is our President and Chief Executive Officer ("CEO"), in determining how to allocate resources and assess performance. Our four reportable segments include the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Radio Broadcasting consists of all radio broadcast results of operations as well as low powered television operations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Reach Media consists of the results of operations for the related activities and operations of the Company's syndicated radio shows.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) Digital includes the results of the Company's online business, including the operations of Interactive One, as well as the digital components of the Company's other reportable segments.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) Cable Television includes the results of operations of TV One and CLEO TV.

Effective January 1, 2025, the Company modified the composition of two of our reportable segments to reflect changes in how they operate their businesses. The Company transferred the CTV offering within our Digital segment to our Cable Television segment. This change aligns the CTV offering with the results of operations within our Cable Television segment. Prior period Cable Television and Digital segment information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q has been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. In addition, prior period segment information has been recast between the Sales and marketing and the General and administrative significant segment expenses across the four segments to conform the presentation of significant segment expenses used to evaluate segment performance by the CODM.

In addition to the reportable segments above, the Company has a "Corporate/Eliminations/Other" category that includes business activities not directly attributable to a specific reportable segment. Each of our four reportable segments operate in the United States and are consistently aligned with the Company's management of its businesses and its financial reporting structure.

In the ordinary course of business, our reportable segments enter into transactions with one another. While intercompany transactions are treated like third-party transactions to determine segment performance, the revenues and expenses recognized by the segment that is counterparty to the transaction are eliminated in consolidation and do not affect consolidated results.

This segment structure reflects the financial information and reports used by the Company's management, specifically its CODM, who is responsible for reviewing segment performance and making decisions regarding resource allocations, performance assessments, as well as our current operating focus. Asset and asset related information are not key measures used by the CODM. The CODM does not regularly receive or review information pertaining to assets by segments or in totality.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i09a1da13eccd4c4da0982451d9ff6d70_7)</u>

The CODM evaluates each segment's performance based on Segment Adjusted EBITDA (defined below), guiding strategic decisions to align with company-wide goals, assessing the operating results and performance of the segments, identifying strategies to improve performance, and allocating resources to each segment. Segment Adjusted EBITDA is used to facilitate a comparison of the ordinary, ongoing and customary course of our operations on a consistent basis from period to period and provide an additional understanding of factors and trends affecting our business segments. Significant segment expenses provided to the CODM and included within Segment Adjusted EBITDA include programming and technical, sales and marketing, and general and administrative.

The Company defines Segment Adjusted EBITDA as net revenue less (1) programming and technical, (2) sales and marketing, (3) general and administrative operating expenses, plus (4) severance-related costs, (5) non-recurring litigation settlement costs, and (6) other costs (income).

Detailed segment data for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 is presented in the following table:

**13. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES**

***Radio Broadcasting Licenses***

Each of the Company's radio stations operates pursuant to one or more licenses issued by the FCC that have a maximum term of eight years prior to renewal. The Company's radio broadcasting licenses expire at various times beginning in October 2027 through August 2030. Although the Company may apply to renew its radio broadcasting licenses, third parties may challenge the Company's renewal applications. The Company is not aware of any facts or circumstances that would prevent the Company from having its current licenses renewed. A station may continue to operate beyond the expiration date of its license if a timely filed license renewal application is filed and is pending.

***Royalty Agreements***

Musical works rights holders, songwriters and music publishers, have been traditionally represented by performing rights organizations, such as the American Society of Composers Authors and Publishers ("ASCAP"), Broadcast Music, Inc. ("BMI") and SESAC, Inc. ("SESAC"). The market for rights relating to musical works is changing rapidly. Songwriters and music publishers have withdrawn from the traditional performing rights organizations ("PRO"), particularly ASCAP and BMI, and new entities, such as Global Music Rights Inc. ("GMR"), have been formed to represent rights holders. These organizations negotiate fees with copyright users, collect royalties and distribute them to the rights holders. These licenses periodically come up for renewal and, as a result, certain of the Company's PRO licenses are currently the subject of renewal negotiations. The outcome of these renewal negotiations could impact, and potentially increase, the Company's music license fees. In addition, there is no guarantee that additional PROs will not emerge, which could impact, and in some circumstances increase, the Company's royalty rates and negotiation costs.

The Radio Music Licensing Committee ("RMLC"), of which the Company is a represented participant has negotiated and entered into, on behalf of participating members, an Interim License Agreement with ASCAP effective January 1, 2022 and to remain in effect until the date on which the parties reach agreement as to, or there is court determination of, new interim or final fees, terms, and conditions of a new license for the five year period commencing on January 1, 2022 and concluding on December 31, 2026. On February 7, 2022, the RMLC and GMR reached a settlement and achieved certain conditions which effectuate a four-year license to which the Company is a party for the period April 1, 2022 to March 31, 2026. The license includes an optional three-year extended term that the Company has opted into. On August 19, 2025, the RMLC announced that it had settled litigation with BMI and ASCAP concerning licensing arrangements and that the settlement has led to new license agreements for members organizations. Both agreements are retroactive to January 1, 2022, and run through December 31, 2029. Each of the new BMI and ASCAP licenses maintain the same percentage-of-revenue license fee structure of the prior licensing arrangements and continue to provide for broad coverage of over-the-air programming, as well as simulcast/website transmissions of podcasts/archived content. While the percentage rates in the new licensing arrangements are higher than the old rates, they are lower than the rates sought by each of BMI and ASCAP in the now-settled litigation. The rate increase resulted in additional expense of approximately $3.1 million for the historical periods under settlement, which is included in programming and technical expenses on the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively.

On November 1, 2024, RMLC announced that it had won a ruling in its rate determination proceedings with SESAC with respect to fees paid by RMLC-represented stations. The determination sets the rates for the period January 1, 2023, through December 31, 2026, and is retroactive in its application. RMLC-Represented Stations that have paid SESAC interim license fees at higher previous rates may receive a true-up adjustment in order to bring rates into conformity with the now-final rates. This ruling did not have a material impact on the Company's operations.

***Reach Media Redeemable Non-controlling Interests***

Beginning on January 1, 2018, the non-controlling interest shareholders of Reach Media have had an annual right to require Reach Media to purchase all or a portion of their shares at the then current fair market value for such shares (the "Put Right"). This annual right is exercisable for a 30-day period beginning January 1 of each year. The purchase price for such shares may be paid in cash and/or registered Class D common stock of Urban One, at the discretion of Urban One. The non-controlling interest shareholders of Reach Media exercised 50.0% of their Put Right on January 26, 2024. On March 8, 2024, Reach Media closed on the Put Interest increasing the Company's interest in Reach Media to approximately 90.0% and decreasing the interest of the non-controlling interest shareholders from approximately 20.0% to approximately 10.0%. Reach Media paid the non-controlling interest shareholders approximately $7.6 million for the 10.0% interest. On February 14, 2025, certain non-controlling interest shareholders of Reach Media exercised their annual Put Right for approximately $3.2 million, increasing the Company's interest in Reach Media to approximately 94.6% and decreasing the interest of the non-controlling interest shareholders from approximately 10.0% to approximately 5.4%.

Management, at this time, cannot reasonably determine the period when and if the non-controlling interest shareholders will exercise the remaining portion of the Put Right.

***Other Contingencies***

The Company has been named as a defendant in several legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. It is management's opinion, after consultation with its legal counsel, that the outcome of these claims will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

On March 16, 2025, the Company began investigating an incident involving an unauthorized third party who had gained access to the Company's IT systems on or around February 10, 2025, and exfiltrated certain information from our information technology systems. Upon discovery, the Company activated our incident response team, comprised of internal personnel and external cybersecurity experts. The investigation of the incident response team and related remediation is ongoing. The Company is actively conducting forensic analysis and reviewing the information accessed to determine the nature and extent of the incident. As of the date of this filing, the incident has not impacted the Company's operations or ability to conduct business in the ordinary course. Based on the information currently known at this time, the Company does not expect the incident to have a material impact on its business, operations, ability to serve its customers, or financial results. The Company carries insurance, including cyber insurance, commensurate with its size and the nature of its operations. Because of the preliminary nature of the investigation into this incident, the Company is unable to reasonably estimate the potential costs, including remediation and other expenses related to this incident.

**Item 2. *Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations***

**Introduction**

***Revenue***

Within our core radio business, the Company primarily derives revenue from the sale of advertising time and program sponsorships to local and national advertisers on our radio stations. Advertising revenue is affected primarily by the advertising rates our radio stations are able to charge, as well as the overall demand for radio advertising time in a market. These rates are largely based upon a radio station's audience share in the demographic groups targeted by advertisers, the number of radio stations in the related market, and the supply of, and demand for, radio advertising time. Advertising rates are generally highest during morning and afternoon commuting hours.

In the broadcasting industry, radio stations and television stations often utilize trade or barter agreements to reduce cash expenses by exchanging advertising time for goods or services. In order to maximize cash revenue for our spot inventory, the Company closely manage the use of trade and barter agreements.

Net revenue consists of gross revenue, net of local and national agency and outside sales representative commissions. Agency and outside sales representative commissions are calculated based on a stated percentage applied to gross billing.

The following table shows the percentage of unaudited condensed consolidated net revenue generated by each reporting segment.

<sup>(1)</sup> Effective January 1, 2025, segment information for the prior periods has been recast in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to include reclassification of a portion of revenues from our CTV offering from the Digital segment to the Cable Television segment.

Reach Media primarily derives its revenue from the sale of advertising in connection with its syndicated radio shows, including the Rickey Smiley Morning Show and the DL Hughley Show. Reach Media also operates www.BlackAmericaWeb.com, an African-American targeted news and entertainment website, in addition to providing various other event-related activities.

Within our Digital segment, Interactive One generates the majority of the Company's digital revenue. Our digital revenue is principally derived from advertising services on non-radio station branded, but Company-owned websites. Advertising services include the sale of banner and sponsorship advertisements. As the Company runs its advertising campaigns, the customer simultaneously receives benefits as impressions are delivered, and revenue is recognized. The amount of revenue recognized each month is based on the number of impressions delivered multiplied by the effective per impression unit price and is equal to the net amount receivable from the customer.

Our Cable Television segment generates the Company's cable television revenue and derives its revenue principally from advertising and affiliate revenue. Advertising revenue is derived from the sale of television airtime to advertisers and is recognized when the advertisements are run. Our Cable Television segment also derives revenue from affiliate fees under the terms of various multi-year affiliation agreements generally based on a per subscriber royalty for the right to distribute the Company's programming under the terms of the distribution contracts.

***Expenses***

Our significant expenses are: (i) employee salaries and commissions; (ii) programming expenses; (iii) marketing and promotional expenses; (iv) rental of premises for office facilities and studios; (v) rental of transmission tower space; (vi) music license royalty fees; and (vii) content amortization. The Company strives to control these expenses by centralizing certain functions such as finance, accounting, legal, human resources, and management information systems and, in certain markets, the programming management function. We also use our multiple stations, market presence and purchasing power to negotiate favorable rates with certain vendors and national representative selling agencies. In addition to salaries and commissions, major expenses for our internet business include membership traffic acquisition costs, software product design, post-application software development and maintenance, database and server support costs, the help desk function, data center expenses connected with internet service provider ("ISP") hosting services and other internet content delivery expenses. Major expenses for our Cable Television segment include content acquisition and amortization, sales, and marketing.

The Company generally incurs marketing and promotional expenses to increase and maintain our audiences. However, because Nielsen reports ratings either monthly or quarterly, depending on the particular market, any changed ratings and the effect on advertising revenue tends to lag behind both the reporting of the ratings and the incurrence of advertising and promotional expenditures.

Net (loss) income attributable to non-controlling interests was approximately $(0.1) million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to approximately $1.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease in net income attributable to non-controlling interests was primarily due to the increase of our change in ownership interest in Reach Media during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024

**Non-GAAP Financial Measures**

The presentation of non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation from, as a substitute for, or superior to the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). We use non-GAAP financial measures including broadcast and digital operating income and Adjusted EBITDA as additional means to evaluate our business and operating results through period-to-period comparisons. Reconciliations of our non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included below for review. Reliance should not be placed on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.

***Measurement Of Performance***

We monitor and evaluate the growth and operational performance of our business using net loss and the following key metrics:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)*Net revenue*: The performance of an individual radio station or group of radio stations in a particular market is customarily measured by its ability to generate net revenue. Net revenue consists of gross revenue, net of local and national agency and outside sales representative commissions consistent with industry practice. Net revenue is recognized in the period in which advertisements are broadcast. Net revenue also includes advertising aired in exchange for goods and services, which is recorded at fair value, revenue from sponsored events and other revenue. Net revenue is recognized for our online business as impressions are delivered. Net revenue is recognized for our Cable Television segment as advertisements are run or impressions delivered, and during the term of the affiliation agreements at levels appropriate for the most recent subscriber counts reported by the affiliate, net of launch support.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)*Broadcast and digital operating income*: The broadcasting industry commonly refers to "station operating income" which consists of net loss before depreciation and amortization, income taxes, interest expense, interest and investment income, non-controlling interests in income of subsidiaries, other income, net, loss from unconsolidated joint venture, corporate selling, general and administrative expenses, stock-based compensation, impairment of goodwill and intangible assets, and (gain) loss on retirement of debt. However, given the diverse nature of our business, station operating income is not truly reflective of our multi-media operation and, therefore, we use the term "broadcast and digital operating income." Broadcast and digital operating income is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP. Nevertheless, broadcast and digital operating income is a significant measure used by our management to evaluate the operating performance of our core operating segments. Broadcast and digital operating income provides helpful information about our results of operations, apart from expenses associated with our fixed assets and goodwill and intangible assets, income taxes, investments, impairment charges, debt financings and retirements, corporate overhead, and stock-based compensation. Our measure of broadcast and digital operating income is similar to industry use of station operating income; however, it reflects our more diverse business and therefore is not completely analogous to "station operating income" or other similarly titled measures as used by other companies. Broadcast and digital operating income does not represent operating income or loss, or cash flow from operating activities, as those terms are defined under GAAP, and should not be considered as an alternative to those measurements as an indicator of our performance.

Broadcast and digital operating income decreased to approximately $20.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to approximately $35.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, a decrease of approximately $15.4 million or 43.5%. This decrease was primarily due to lower broadcast and digital operating income at all segments. Our Digital segment generated approximately $0.7 million of broadcast and digital operating income during the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to approximately broadcast and digital operating income of $7.1 million during the three months ended September 30, 2024, primarily due to lower revenues offset by lower expenses. Reach Media generated approximately $0.4 million of broadcast and digital operating income during the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to approximately $5.1 million of broadcast and digital operating income during the three months ended September 30, 2024, primarily due to lower revenues and higher expenses. Our Radio Broadcasting segment generated approximately $2.7 million of broadcast and digital operating income during the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to approximately $6.7 million during the three months ended September 30, 2024, primarily due to lower revenues offset by lower expenses. Finally, Cable Television generated approximately $16.1 million of broadcast and digital operating income during the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to approximately $16.7 million during the three months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease in the Cable Television segment's broadcast and digital operating income was primarily due to lower revenues offset by lower expenses.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i09a1da13eccd4c4da0982451d9ff6d70_7)</u>

Broadcast and digital operating income decreased to approximately $68.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to approximately $101.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, a decrease of approximately $33.0 million or 32.5%. The decrease was primarily due to lower broadcast and digital operating income at all segments but our Cable Television segment. Our Digital segment generated approximately $0.6 million of broadcast and digital operating income during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to approximately $13.0 million of broadcast and digital operating income during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, primarily due to lower revenues offset by lower expenses. Reach Media generated approximately $0.3 million of broadcast and digital operating loss during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to approximately $12.0 million of broadcast and digital operating income during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, primarily due to lower revenues offset by lower expenses. Cable television generated approximately $55.9 million of broadcast and digital operating income during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to approximately $52.2 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The increase in the Cable Television segment's broadcast and digital operating income was primarily due to lower expenses offset by lower net revenue. Finally, our Radio Broadcasting segment generated approximately $12.4 million of broadcast and digital operating income during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to approximately $24.1 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, primarily due to lower revenues offset by lower expenses.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)*Adjusted EBITDA*: Adjusted EBITDA consists of net loss plus (1) depreciation and amortization, income taxes, interest expense, net income (loss) attributable to non-controlling interests, impairment of goodwill and intangible assets, stock-based compensation, (gain) loss on retirement of debt, corporate costs, non-recurring litigation settlement costs, severance-related costs, investment income, loss from unconsolidated joint venture, loss from ceased non-core business initiatives less (2) other income, net and interest and investment income. Net loss before interest income, interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization is commonly referred to in our business as "EBITDA." Adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA are not measures of financial performance under GAAP. We believe Adjusted EBITDA is often a useful measure of a company's operating performance and is a significant measure used by our management to evaluate the operating performance of our business. Accordingly, based on the previous description of Adjusted EBITDA, we believe that it provides useful information about the operating performance of our business, apart from the expenses associated with our fixed assets and goodwill and intangible assets, or capital structure. Adjusted EBITDA is frequently used as one of the measures for comparing businesses in the broadcasting industry, although our measure of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, including, but not limited to the fact that our definition includes the results of all four of our operating segments (Radio Broadcasting, Reach Media, Digital, and Cable Television). Business activities unrelated to these four segments are included in "Corporate/Eliminations/ Other" line item in the reconciliation to the pre-tax income. Adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA do not purport to represent operating income or cash flow from operating activities, as those terms are defined under GAAP, and should not be considered as alternatives to those measurements as an indicator of our performance.

<sup>(c)</sup> In 2024, we made an immaterial change to the definition of Adjusted EBITDA by adding back the loss from ceased non-core operations. All historical periods were recast to reflect this immaterial change.

**LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES** 

Our primary source of liquidity is cash provided by operations and, to the extent necessary, borrowings available under our asset-backed credit facility. Our cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash balance was approximately $79.8 million as of September 30, 2025. As of September 30, 2025, there were no borrowings outstanding on the Current ABL Facility (as defined below) which has $50.0 million in overall capacity.

The Company regularly considers the impact of macroeconomic conditions on our business. Uncertainty in the macroeconomic environment with newly implemented tariffs, continued increases in inflation and interest rates, along with banking volatility, may have an adverse effect on our revenues.

From time to time, the Company may repurchase its outstanding debt and/or equity securities in open market purchases. Under open authorizations, repurchases of our outstanding debt and/or equity securities may be made from time to time in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. Repurchased debt and equity securities are retired when repurchased. The timing and extent of any repurchases will depend upon prevailing market conditions, the trading price of the Company's outstanding debt and/or equity securities and other factors, and subject to restrictions under applicable law.

On September 27, 2022, the Compensation Committee authorized the repurchase of up to approximately $0.5 million (the "Employee Stock Repurchase Authorization") worth of shares in the aggregate from employees who want to sell in connection with the Company's most recent employee stock grant. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company did not repurchase any shares of Class A stock in connection with the Employee Stock Repurchase Authorization. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company repurchased 98,976 shares of Class D stock under the Employee Stock Repurchase Authorization at an average price of $0.98 for a total amount of approximately $0.1 million. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company repurchased 25,285 shares of Class D stock under the authorization at an average price of $3.76 for a total amount of approximately $0.1 million. The Company has approximately $0.1 million remaining under the Employee Stock Repurchase Authorization.

In addition, the Company has limited but ongoing authority to purchase shares of Class D common stock (in one or more transactions at any time there remain outstanding grants) under the 2019 Equity and Performance Incentive Plan. This limited authority is used to satisfy any employee or other recipient tax obligations in connection with the exercise of an option or a share grant under the 2019 Equity and Performance Incentive Plan, to the extent that the Company has capacity under its financing agreements (i.e., its current credit facilities and indentures) (each a "Stock Vest Tax Repurchase").

On June 10, 2024, the Company's Board of Directors approved a share repurchase authorization to repurchase up to $20.0 million of the Company's outstanding Class A and/or Class D Common Stock (collectively, the "2024 Stock Repurchase Program") on a cash basis.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company repurchased 851,884 shares of Class A Common Stock under the 2024 Stock Repurchase Program of approximately $1.3 million at an average price of $1.58 per share. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company repurchased 1,464,300 shares of Class A Common Stock in the amount of approximately $3.0 million at an average price of $2.03 per share.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company repurchased 998,017 shares of Class D Common Stock in the amount of approximately $0.7 million at an average price of $0.72 per share. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company repurchased 647,528 shares of Class D Common Stock in the amount of approximately $0.9 million at an average price of $1.39 per share.

After giving effect to the above transactions across both our Class A and our Class D Common Stock, the 2024 Stock Repurchase Program has approximately $11.4 million remaining under the authorization.

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i09a1da13eccd4c4da0982451d9ff6d70_7)</u>

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company executed Stock Vest Tax Repurchases of 492,108 shares of Class D Common Stock in the amount of approximately $0.4 million at a price of $0.76 per share. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company executed Stock Vest Tax Repurchases of 423,511 shares of Class D Common Stock in the amount of approximately $1.4 million at an average price of $3.21 per share.

On January 25, 2021, the Company closed on an offering (the "2028 Notes") of $825.0 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2028 Notes in a private offering exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). The 2028 Notes are general senior secured obligations of the Company and are guaranteed on a senior secured basis by certain of the Company's direct and indirect restricted subsidiaries. The 2028 Notes mature on February 1, 2028, and interest on the Notes accrues and is payable semi-annually in arrears on February 1 and August 1 of each year, commencing on August 1, 2021 at the rate of 7.375% per annum.

The 2028 Notes Offering and the guarantees are secured, subject to permitted liens and except for certain excluded assets (i) on a first priority basis by substantially all of the Company's and the guarantors' current and future property and assets (other than accounts receivable, cash, deposit accounts, other bank accounts, securities accounts, inventory and related assets that secure our asset-backed revolving credit facility on a first priority basis (the "ABL Priority Collateral"), including the capital stock of each guarantor (collectively, the "Notes Priority Collateral") and (ii) on a second priority basis by the ABL Priority Collateral.

During the first quarter of 2025, the Board of Directors authorized and approved a further note repurchase program for up to $75.0 million of the currently outstanding 2028 Notes (the "March 2025 Authorization") on a cash basis.

During the three months ended September 30, 2025 the Company repurchased approximately $4.5 million of its 2028 Notes at an average price of approximately 52.0% of par, resulting in a net gain on retirement of debt of approximately $2.1 million. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company repurchased approximately $96.7 million of its 2028 Notes at an average price of approximately 53.6% of par, resulting in a net gain on retirement of debt of approximately $44.0 million. There is approximately $45.8 million remaining under the March 2025 authorization.

During the three months September 30, 2024, the Company repurchased approximately $14.5 million of its 2028 Notes at an average price of approximately 75.0% of par, resulting in a net gain on retirement of debt of approximately $3.5 million. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company repurchased approximately $125.0 million of its 2028 Notes at an average price of approximately 83.8% of par, resulting in a net gain on retirement of debt of approximately $18.8 million. As of September 30, 2025, the total outstanding aggregate principal amount of the senior secured notes due 2028 is approximately $487.8 million.

On February 19, 2021, the Company closed on an asset backed credit facility (the "Current ABL Facility"). The Current ABL Facility is governed by a credit agreement by and among the Company, the other borrowers party thereto, the lenders party thereto from time to time and Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent. The Current ABL Facility provides for up to $50.0 million revolving loan borrowings in order to provide for the working capital needs and general corporate requirements of the Company. The Current ABL Facility also provides for a letter of credit facility up to $5.0 million as a part of the overall $50.0 million in capacity. As of September 30, 2025, there was no balance outstanding on the Current ABL Facility.

At the Company's election, the interest rate on borrowings under the Current ABL Facility are based on either (i) the then applicable margin relative to Base Rate Loans (as defined in the Current ABL Facility) or (ii) until the Waiver and Amendment (as defined below) took effect, the then applicable margin relative to LIBOR Loans (as defined in the Current ABL Facility) corresponding to the average availability of the Company for the most recently completed fiscal quarter.

On April 30, 2023, the Company entered into a waiver and amendment (the "Waiver and Amendment") to the Current ABL Facility. The Waiver and Amendment waived certain events of default under the Current ABL Facility related to the Company's failure to timely deliver certain Annual Financial Deliverables for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. Additionally, under the Waiver and Amendment, the Current ABL Facility was amended to provide that from and after the date thereof, any request for a new LIBOR Loan (as defined in the Current ABL Facility), for a continuation of an existing LIBOR Loan (as defined in the Current ABL Facility) or for a conversion of a Loan to a LIBOR Loan (as defined in the Current ABL Facility) shall be deemed to be a request for a loan bearing interest at Term SOFR (as defined in the Amended Current ABL Facility) (the "SOFR Interest Rate Change").

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i09a1da13eccd4c4da0982451d9ff6d70_7)</u>

As the Company was undrawn under the Current ABL Facility as of the date of the Waiver and Amendment, the SOFR Interest Rate Change would only bear upon future borrowings by the Company such that they bear an interest rate relating to the secured overnight financing rate. These provisions of the Waiver and Amendment are intended to transition loans under the Current ABL Facility to the new secured overnight financing rate as the benchmark rate.

Advances under the Current ABL Facility are limited to (a) eighty-five percent (85%) of the amount of Eligible Accounts (as defined in the Current ABL Facility), less the amount, if any, of the Dilution Reserve (as defined in the Current ABL Facility), minus (b) the sum of (i) the Bank Product Reserve (as defined in the Current ABL Facility), plus (ii) the AP and Deferred Revenue Reserve (as defined in the Current ABL Facility), plus (iii) without duplication, the aggregate amount of all other reserves, if any, established by the Administrative Agent.

All obligations under the Current ABL Facility are secured by a first priority lien on all (i) deposit accounts (related to accounts receivable), (ii) accounts receivable, and (iii) all other property which constitutes ABL Priority Collateral (as defined in the Current ABL Facility). The obligations are also guaranteed by all material restricted subsidiaries of the Company.

The Current ABL Facility matures on the earlier to occur of: (a) the date that is five years from the effective date of the Current ABL Facility, and (b) 91 days prior to the maturity of the Company's 2028 Notes. The Current ABL Facility is subject to the terms of the Revolver Intercreditor Agreement (as defined in the Current ABL Facility) by and among the Administrative Agent and Wilmington Trust, National Association.

The following table provides a summary of our statements of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, and 2024, respectively:

---

| &nbsp;&nbsp;Net cash flows provided by operating activities | $8129 | $1860 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Net cash flows used in investing activities | (7315) | (1702) |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Net cash flows used in financing activities | (58578) | (118239) |

---

Net cash flows provided by operating activities were approximately $8.1 million and $1.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, and 2024, respectively. Net cash flow from operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 increased primarily due to lower payments for content, offset by the decrease in reserve for audience deficiency.

Cash flows from operations, cash and cash equivalents, and other sources of liquidity are expected to be available and sufficient to meet foreseeable cash requirements.

Net cash flows used in investing activities were approximately $7.3 million and $1.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, and 2024, respectively. Net cash flows used in investing activities increased from the prior year primarily due to the cash receipts on disposition of station for approximately $3.8 million in the prior year. Additionally, we had capital expenditures of approximately $6.9 million and $5.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, and 2024, respectively.

Net cash flows used in financing activities were approximately $58.6 million and $118.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, and 2024, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, and 2024, we paid approximately $51.9 million and $104.8 million, respectively, to repurchase approximately $96.7 million and $125.0 million of our 2028 Notes, respectively. We repurchased approximately $2.5 million of our Class A and D Common Stock during the nine months ended September 30, 2025. We repurchased approximately $5.3 million of our Class A and D Common Stock during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. In addition, certain non-controlling interest shareholders of Reach Media exercised their annual Put Right on February 14, 2025 for $3.2 million, which resulted in an increase of the Company's interest in Reach Media to approximately 94.6% and decreasing the interest of the non-controlling interest shareholders from 10.0% to approximately 5.4%. Finally, Reach Media paid approximately $0.9 million and $1.8 million in dividends to non-controlling interest shareholders during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, and 2024, respectively.

***Credit Rating Agencies***

On a continuing basis, Standard and Poor's, Moody's Investor Services, and other rating agencies may evaluate our indebtedness in order to assign a credit rating. Our corporate credit ratings by Standard & Poor's Rating Services and Moody's Investors Service are speculative-grade and have been downgraded and upgraded at various times during the last several years. Any reductions in our credit ratings could increase our borrowing costs, reduce the availability of financing to us or increase our cost of doing business or otherwise negatively impact our business operations.

Our critical accounting estimates are described in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, under the heading Part II - Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting estimates from those presented in our Form 10-K, other than the change in useful lives of the TV One Trade Name and radio broadcasting licenses (see further discussion below). Additionally, on July 1, 2025, we determined the components of our Radio Broadcasting operating segment represent a single reporting unit.

***Radio Broadcasting Licenses***

As of May 31, 2025, projected gross market revenues and operating profit margin declined creating a triggering event indicating that the fair value of the Company's radio broadcasting licenses were more likely than not to be less than its carrying value.

To determine the fair value of the broadcasting licenses, the Company utilized the income approach which values a license by calculating the value of a hypothetical startup company that initially has no assets except the asset to be valued (the broadcasting license). The Company performed a discounted cash flow analysis for broadcasting licenses across relevant radio markets. The key assumptions used in the discounted cash flow analysis for broadcasting licenses include market revenue and projected revenue growth by market, market share, operating profit margin, and discount rate.

Based on this analysis, the Company recognized an impairment loss of approximately $121.3 million associated with twelve radio markets within the Radio Broadcasting segment, included in impairment of goodwill and intangible assets, on the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations during the three months ended June 30, 2025. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025 the Company recognized impairment loss of approximately $127.8 million within the Radio Broadcasting segment, included in impairment of goodwill and intangible assets, on the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations.

Below are the key assumptions used in the income approach model for estimating the fair value of the broadcasting licenses for the thirteen radio markets in the most recent interim impairment assessment performed as of May 31, 2025.

<sup>(a)</sup> The units of accounting are not disclosed on a specific market basis in order not to make publicly available information that could be competitively harmful to the Company. Units of accounting, not presented in this table, were previously disposed by the Company.

To the extent that there is a potential recession (local to any of the markets in which we operate or nationally) that further disrupts the economic environment impacting the financial performance, market share, or changes in interest rates, these events could negatively affect the key assumptions and result in significantly lower fair value of the broadcasting licenses.

The following table presents sensitivity analyses for radio broadcasting licenses within the Radio Broadcasting segment showing the impact on our most recent quantitative impairment assessment resulting from: (i) a 100 basis point decrease in operating profit margins; (ii) a 100 basis point increase in the discount rate; and (iii) both a 5.0% and 10.0% reduction in the fair values of broadcasting licenses.

Due to industry and macro-economic conditions along with ongoing declines in national and local radio listenership, and forecasted cash flows for the Radio Broadcasting segment, the Company reassessed the useful life for the broadcasting licenses. As a result of the reassessment, the Company concluded that the useful life should change from indefinite-lived to finite-lived intangible assets effective June 1, 2025. The Company has adopted an accelerated amortization method and will amortize the assets with a carrying value of $130.0 million over a range of 9 to 18-year period This was considered a change in estimate, accounted for prospectively, and resulted in amortization expense of $3.8 million and $5.1 million included in depreciation and amortization, on the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively.

***TV One Trade Name***

Due to industry and macro-economic conditions along with ongoing subscriber churn, and forecasted cash flows for TV One, the Company reassessed the useful life for the trade name TV One (the "TV One Trade Name"). As a result of the reassessment, the Company concluded that the useful life should change from indefinite-lived to a finite-lived intangible asset effective January 1, 2025. The Company has adopted an accelerated amortization method and will amortize this asset with a carrying value of $26.6 million over a 20-year period. This was considered a change in estimate, was accounted for prospectively, and resulted in amortization expense of $0.6 million and $1.9 million included in depreciation and amortization, on the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively.

See Note 8 – *Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets* of our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion.

***Goodwill***

As of May 31, 2025, an overall decline in revenue and operating profit margin created a triggering event indicating the fair value of the Company's Radio Broadcasting, Reach Media and Digital reportable units were more likely than not to be less than its carrying value. Therefore, the Company performed interim quantitative assessments at ten of the reporting units containing goodwill. During the three months ended June 30, 2025, the Company recorded impairment losses of approximately $4.9 million and $3.9 million to reduce the carrying value of our Digital and Radio Broadcasting reporting unit goodwill balances, respectively.

***Radio Market Reporting Units***

The Company noted a continued decline in revenues in the Radio Market reporting units, indicating that it was more likely than not that the reporting units were impaired. Therefore, the Company performed a quantitative impairment assessment on the Radio Market reporting units to determine whether it was impaired as of May 31, 2025. Based on these analyses, the Company recognized an impairment loss of approximately $3.9 million associated with the Radio Broadcasting reporting units, included in impairment of goodwill and intangible assets, on the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations during the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

Below are the key assumptions used in the income approach model for estimating the fair value of the Radio Market reporting units in the most recent interim impairment assessment performed as of May 31, 2025.

On July 1, 2025, we determined the components of our Radio Broadcasting operating segment represent a single reporting unit. The change was primarily driven by the continued integration of the individual markets under a centralized leadership structure resulting in interdependent processes across Radio Broadcasting. The Company utilized a quantitative impairment assessment immediately before the change and performed a qualitative assessment immediately thereafter.

As of September 30, 2025, the Company evaluated various factors, events or circumstances, including macroeconomic conditions, industry and market considerations, overall financial performance and other relevant reporting unit specific events. Based on our review, the Company did not identify any triggering events during the three months ended September 30, 2025.

***iOne Reporting Unit***

The Company noted a continued decline in revenues in the iOne reporting unit, indicating that it was more likely than not that the iOne reporting unit was impaired. Therefore, the Company performed a quantitative impairment assessment for the iOne reporting unit to determine whether it was impaired as of May 31, 2025. Based on these analyses, the Company recognized an impairment loss of approximately $4.9 million associated with the iOne reporting unit, included in impairment of goodwill and intangible assets, on the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations during the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

Below are the key assumptions used in the income approach model for estimating the fair value of the iOne reporting unit in the most recent interim impairment assessment performed as of May 31, 2025.

***Fair Value Measurements***

The Company estimated the fair value of the Employment Agreement Award as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, at approximately $9.3 million and $10.4 million, respectively, and, accordingly, adjusted the liability to that amount. The fair value estimate incorporated a number of assumptions and estimates, including but not limited to revenue growth rates, future operating profit margins, discount rate, peer companies, average recurring EBITDA multiples and weighting of the income and market approach. As the Company will measure changes in the fair value of this award at each reporting period as warranted by certain circumstances, different estimates or assumptions may result in a change to the fair value of the award amount previously recorded.

**RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS**

See Note 2 – *Summary of Significant Accounting Policies* of our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for a summary of recent accounting pronouncements.

**CAPITAL AND COMMERCIAL COMMITMENTS**

***Radio Broadcasting Licenses***

Each of the Company's radio stations operates pursuant to one or more licenses issued by the Federal Communications Commission that have a maximum term of eight years prior to renewal. The Company's radio broadcasting licenses expire at various times beginning in October 2027, through August 2030. Although the Company may apply to renew its radio broadcasting licenses, third parties may challenge the Company's renewal applications. The Company is not aware of any facts or circumstances that would prevent the Company from having its current licenses renewed. A station may continue to operate beyond the expiration date of its license if a timely filed license renewal application was filed and is pending.

***Indebtedness***

As of September 30, 2025, we had approximately $487.8 million of our 2028 Notes outstanding within our corporate structure. See Note 9 - *Long-Term Debt* of our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company had no other indebtedness.

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i09a1da13eccd4c4da0982451d9ff6d70_7)</u>

***Royalty Agreements***

Musical works rights holders, songwriters and music publishers, have been traditionally represented by performing rights organizations, such as the American Society of Composers Authors and Publishers ("ASCAP"), Broadcast Music, Inc. ("BMI") and SESAC, Inc. ("SESAC"). The market for rights relating to musical works is changing rapidly. Songwriters and music publishers have withdrawn from the traditional performing rights organizations, particularly ASCAP and BMI, and new entities, such as Global Music Rights Inc. ("GMR"), have been formed to represent rights holders. These organizations negotiate fees with copyright users, collect royalties and distribute them to the rights holders. These licenses periodically come up for renewal and, as a result, certain of our performing rights organizations ("PRO") licenses are currently the subject of renewal negotiations. The outcome of these renewal negotiations could impact, and potentially increase, our music license fees. In addition, there is no guarantee that additional PRO's will not emerge, which could impact, and in some circumstances increase, our royalty rates and negotiation costs.

The Radio Music Licensing Committee ("RMLC"), of which we are a represented participant, has negotiated and entered into, on behalf of participating members, an Interim License Agreement with ASCAP effective January 1, 2022 and to remain in effect until the date on which the parties reach agreement as to, or there is court determination of, new interim or final fees, terms, and conditions of a new license for the five year period commencing on January 1, 2022 and concluding on December 31, 2026. On February 7, 2022, the RMLC and GMR reached a settlement and achieved certain conditions which effectuate a four-year license to which the Company is a party for the period April 1, 2022, to March 31, 2026. The license includes an optional three-year extended term that the Company has opted into. On August 19, 2025, the RMLC announced that it had settled litigation with BMI and ASCAP concerning licensing arrangements and that the settlement has led to new license agreements for members organizations. Both agreements are retroactive to January 1, 2022, and run through December 31, 2029. Each of the new BMI and ASCAP licenses maintain the same percentage-of-revenue license fee structure of the prior licensing arrangements and continue to provide for broad coverage of over-the-air programming, as well as simulcast/website transmissions of podcasts/archived content. While the percentage rates in the new licensing arrangements are higher than the old rates, they are lower than the rates sought by each of BMI and ASCAP in the now-settled litigation. The rate increase resulted in additional expense of approximately $3.1 million for the historical periods under settlement, which is included in programming and technical expenses on the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively.

On November 1, 2024, RMLC announced that it had won a ruling in its rate determination proceedings with SESAC with respect to fees paid by RMLC-represented stations. The determination sets the rates for the period January 1, 2023, through December 31, 2026, and is retroactive in its application. RMLC-Represented Stations that have paid SESAC interim license fees at higher previous rates may receive a true-up adjustment in order to bring rates into conformity with the now-final rates. This ruling did not have a material impact on the Company's operations.

***Lease Obligations***

We have non-cancelable operating leases for office space, studio space, broadcast towers and transmitter facilities that expire over the next forty-eight years. See Note 13 - *Commitments and Contingencies* of the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion.

***Operating Contracts And Agreements***

We have other operating contracts and agreements including employment contracts, on-air talent contracts, severance obligations, retention bonuses, consulting agreements, equipment rental agreements, programming-related agreements, and other general operating agreements that expire over the next four years.

***Reach Media Non-controlling Interest***

Beginning on January 1, 2018, the non-controlling interest shareholders of Reach Media have had an annual right to require Reach Media to purchase all or a portion of their shares at the then current fair market value for such shares (the "Put Right"). This annual right is exercisable for a 30-day period beginning January 1 of each year. The purchase price for such shares may be paid in cash and/or registered Class D common stock of the Company, at the discretion of the Company. The non-controlling interest shareholders of Reach Media exercised 50.0% of their Put Right on January 29, 2024 for $7.6 million. On February 14, 2025, certain non-controlling interest shareholders of Reach Media exercised their annual Put Right for approximately $3.2 million, increasing the Company's interest in Reach Media to approximately 94.6% and decreasing the interest of the non-controlling interest shareholders from approximately 10.0% to approximately 5.4%.

Management, at this time, cannot reasonably determine the period when and if the non-controlling interest shareholders will exercise the remaining portion of the Put Right.

***Contractual Obligations Schedule***

The following table represents our scheduled contractual obligations as of September 30, 2025:

<sup>(a)</sup> Includes interest obligations based on interest rates on senior secured notes outstanding as of September 30, 2025.

<sup>(b)</sup> Includes employment contracts (including the Employment Agreement Award), severance obligations, on-air talent contracts, consulting agreements, equipment rental agreements, programming related agreements, launch liability payments, asset-backed credit facility (if applicable) and other general operating agreements. Also includes contracts that our Cable Television segment has entered into to acquire entertainment programming rights and programs from distributors and producers. These contracts relate to their content assets as well as prepaid programming related agreements.

Of the total amount of other operating contracts and agreements included in the table above, approximately $49.4 million has not been recorded on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2025, as it does not meet recognition criteria. Approximately $14.5 million relates to certain commitments for content agreements for our Cable Television segment, approximately $15.2 million relates to employment agreements, and the remainder relates to other agreements.

**Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements**

The Current ABL Facility provides for up to $50.0 million revolving loan borrowings in order to provide for the working capital needs and general corporate requirements of the Company. The Current ABL Facility also provides for a letter of credit facility up to $5.0 million as a part of the overall $50.0 million in capacity. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, there was no balance outstanding on the Current ABL Facility.

**Item 4. *Controls And Procedures***

**(a)Evaluation Of Disclosure Controls And Procedures**

We have carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") and the Chief Financial Officer ("CFO"), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period ended September 30, 2025. Disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, are controls and procedures that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives and management was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide a reasonable level of assurance of reaching our desired disclosure controls objectives. Based on this evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2025 as a result of material weaknesses as described below.

Considering the material weaknesses in the Company's internal control over financial reporting, we performed additional procedures to ensure that our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q were prepared in accordance with GAAP. Following such additional procedures, our management, including our CEO and CFO, has concluded that our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented in the quarterly report on Form 10-Q, in conformity with GAAP.

**(b) Material Weaknesses In Internal Control Over Financial Reporting**

Management identified the following material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2025. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our unaudited condensed consolidated annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Control Environment, Information and Communication, and Monitoring – We did not design and maintain effective entity-level controls impacting the (1) control environment, (2) identification of control activities, and (3) monitoring activities to prevent or detect material misstatements to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and assess whether the components of internal control were present and functioning. We did not adequately communicate the relevant information, including objectives and responsibilities, necessary to support the functioning of internal control over financial reporting. We did not develop and perform sufficient ongoing evaluations to ascertain whether the components of internal control were present and functioning.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Control Activities and Information and Communication – We did not have adequate selection and development of effective control activities resulting in the following material weaknesses:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ We did not design and maintain effective controls over our financial statement close process. This includes an inadequate level of precision in management's review during the financial statement close process, an inadequate evaluation and review of the accounting for significant and non-recurring transactions, ineffective design and operating effectiveness of controls to support proper segregation of duties related to the review of manual journal entries and account reconciliations and an inadequate review as part of its reporting and disclosure process.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ We did not design and maintain management review controls over transactions that require significant judgment. Specifically, controls are not designed to sufficiently evaluate the completeness and accuracy of data used in account analyses related to judgmental areas. Additionally, the Company's management review controls are not operating effectively, as sufficient evidence was not maintained to demonstrate that reviews occurred with a sufficient level of precision to detect a material misstatement.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i09a1da13eccd4c4da0982451d9ff6d70_7)</u>

These material weaknesses resulted in immaterial errors primarily related to stock-based compensation and the Company's investment in the operations of RVA Entertainment Holdings, LLC ("RVAEH") and related income tax accounts, which resulted in the revision of the Company's financial statements for fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. The Company, in the process of correcting these immaterial errors, recorded other immaterial adjustments previously identified during fiscal year 2022. The adjustments, in aggregate, impacted trade accounts receivable, net, accounts payable, other long-term liabilities, and accumulated deficit in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets and selling, general and administrative expenses, and related tax effect in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. Additionally, the material weaknesses could result in a misstatement of substantially all account balances or disclosures that would result in a material misstatement of the annual or interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements that would not be prevented or detected.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• IT General Control Activities – We did not design and maintain information technology ("IT") general controls in the areas of user access, program change management, and IT operations for information technology systems that support the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Specifically, we did not design and maintain (1) user access controls that adequately restrict privileged and end-user access to financial applications, system infrastructure including intrusion detection and incident response capability, programs, and data to appropriate company personnel, including consideration of segregation of incompatible duties; (2) change management controls for financial applications and related system infrastructure to provide reasonable assurance that IT program and data changes are authorized, sufficiently tested, approved, and implemented appropriately; and (3) IT operations controls for certain financial applications to monitor that scheduled financial programs have run and were operating as intended and data backups and recovery are monitored.

These IT deficiencies did not result in a material misstatement to the financial statements, however, the deficiencies, when aggregated, could impact maintaining effective segregation of duties, as well as the effectiveness of IT-dependent controls (such as automated controls that address the risk of material misstatement to one or more assertions, along with the IT controls and underlying data that support the effectiveness of system-generated data and reports) that could result in misstatements potentially impacting all financial statement accounts and disclosures that would not be prevented or detected. Accordingly, management has determined these deficiencies in the aggregate constitute material weaknesses.
