**NEWS RELEASE**

**Gray Finishes 2022 In A Strong Position and Issues Stable Outlook for 2023**

**Atlanta, Georgia** –**February 24, 2023. . . Gray Television, Inc. (**"**Gray,**" "**we,**" "**us**" **or** "**our**"**) (NYSE: GTN)** today announced financial results for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2022, reflecting revenue above our guidance and expenses near the low end of our guidance for the quarter.

Overall, the fourth quarter of 2022 produced record results, including $1.1 billion in total revenue, due to the combination of recent acquisitions, added scale, increasingly efficient integrated operations, and the "on-year" of the two-year political advertising cycle. Moreover, compared to the fourth quarter of 2018, the last mid-term election year, our political advertising revenue of $255 million in the fourth quarter of 2022 grew by 207% on an As-Reported Basis (as defined below) and by 24% on a Combined Historical Basis (as defined below). For the full year 2022, our political advertising revenue was $515 million, which exceeded 2018's political advertising revenue by 232% on an As-Reported Basis and by 38% on a Combined Historical Basis.

Our strong cash flow in the fourth quarter of 2022 enabled us to return a total of $174 million of capital to our shareholders during the fourth quarter, including: two voluntary debt principal pre-payments totaling $150 million under our 2017 Term Loan B (due 2024); a required principal payment of $4 million under our 2021 Term Loan D (due 2028); and $20 million of cash dividends to our preferred and common shareholders. As part of our strong commitment to strengthen our balance sheet, as described below, we currently intend to fully pre-pay the remaining $295 million principal balance on our Term Loan B on March 1, 2023, and we have undertaken efforts to cap the interest rate on our floating rate debt, as described below.

Despite concerns about a possible macroeconomic recession discussed publicly in the general media and by certain sectors of the economy, we believe that our businesses performed well throughout last year and have started 2023 in a strong position. Most notably, on a Combined Historical Basis, our television stations' Core Advertising Revenue (total local, national and internet advertising revenue) of $1.5 billion for full-year 2022 declined by only $19 million or a mere 1% compared to 2021. This performance came despite a more challenging macro-economic environment as well as inventory displacement caused by $515 million of political advertising revenue in 2022, an increase of $455 million, on a Combined Historical Basis. We attribute these solid results to real-world confidence among advertisers and businesses in local markets, which we believe has been and remains more positive than the advertising sentiment currently held by many national advertisers. We also attribute our success in maintaining Core Advertising Revenues to our scale and portfolio of high-quality local stations, our investments in recently acquired television stations, and our efficient sales and news operations. Relatedly, on a Combined Historical Basis, our retransmission revenues grew 5% in full-year 2022 over the prior year, as rate increases outpaced subscriber declines and subscriber rotation into lower revenue generating platforms.

Looking ahead, we anticipate that our television stations and production companies will maintain revenues at a level generally flat with recent years should macroeconomic conditions, particularly in local markets, slow during 2023. In addition, we anticipate that our retransmission revenues in the first quarter of 2023 will increase by approximately 10% to 11% over the fourth quarter of 2022 as rates increases continue to outpace negative subscriber trends.

Meanwhile, we believe our investments in Atlanta Assembly will provide some diversification from our broadcasting segment with new exposure to the growing film and television production industry in Georgia. We currently anticipate that construction on the Assembly Studios portion of the development and much of the infrastructure for the entire project will be completed in the summer of 2023. At that time, we expect that the new facilities will begin generating revenue from both long-term and short-term leases of soundstages and related facilities to various content producers. Also at that time, Gray intends to pause its funding of construction projects at Atlanta Assembly to evaluate carefully certain opportunities to maximize the long-term value of this unique real estate investment.

**Summary of Operating Results**

------

Due to the significant effect that material business combination transactions have had on our results of our operations, we present the financial information herein consistent with both U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP" or "As Reported Basis") and on a Combined Historical Basis ("CHB"), which incorporates certain historical results of acquired businesses, less the historical results of divested businesses. We also furnish certain other detailed non-GAAP metrics to provide more meaningful period-over-period comparisons to assist the public in its analysis and valuation of Gray. This additional information includes a summary of incremental expenses that were specific to our acquisitions, divestitures, and related financing activities ("Transaction Related Expenses"), non-cash stock-based compensation expenses and certain non-GAAP terms common in our industry. Please refer to the detailed discussion of the foregoing terms and concepts included elsewhere herein.

Gray has not completed any material business combination transactions since late 2021. As a result, we do not currently anticipate providing CHB results going forward.

**<u>As Reported Basis</u>** (the respective 2021 periods reflect the "off-year" of the two year political advertising cycle):

For the fourth quarter of 2022:

● Total revenue was $1.1 billion, an increase of 49% from the fourth quarter of 2021, primarily due to the cyclical increase in political advertising revenue.

● Core Advertising Revenue was $406 million, an increase of 13% from the fourth quarter of 2021.

● Net income attributable to common stockholders was $173 million, or $1.88 per fully diluted share, an increase of 981% from the fourth quarter of 2021.

● Broadcast Cash Flow was $485 million, an increase of 88% from the fourth quarter of 2021.

For the full year of 2022:

● Total revenue was $3.7 billion, an increase of 52% from 2021, marking our highest ever annual revenue.

● Core Advertising Revenue was $1.5 billion, an increase of 26% from 2021.

● Net income attributable to common stockholders was $403 million, an increase of 961% from 2021.

● Broadcast Cash Flow was $1.4 billion, an increase of 77% from 2021.

**<u>Combined Historical Basis</u>** (the respective 2021 periods reflect the "off-year" of the two year political advertising cycle):

For the fourth quarter of 2022:

● Total revenue was $1.1 billion, an increase of 25% from the fourth quarter of 2021.

● Total Core Revenue was $406 million, a decrease of 4% from the fourth quarter of 2021, due primarily to displacement resulting from the $230 million increase in political advertising revenue, to $255 million, in 2022.

● Broadcast Cash Flow was $484 million, an increase of 56% from the fourth quarter of 2021.

For the full year of 2022:

● Total revenue was $3.7 billion, an increase of 17% from 2021.

● Total Core Revenue was $1.5 billion, a decrease of 1% from 2021, due primarily to displacement resulting from the $455 million increase in political advertising revenue, to $515 million, in 2022.

● Broadcast Cash Flow was $1.4 billion, an increase of 31% from 2021.

**<u>Other Key Metrics</u>**

● As of December 31, 2022, our Total Leverage Ratio, Net of all Cash, was 5.41 times on a trailing eight-quarter basis, netting our total cash balance of $61 million and giving effect to all Transaction Related Expenses, which is calculated as set forth in our Senior Credit Facility.

● Throughout 2022 and 2021, we incurred Transaction Related Expenses on an As Reported Basis that included but were not limited to legal and professional fees, severance and incentive compensation and contract termination fees. In addition, we recorded certain non-cash stock-based compensation expenses. These expenses are summarized as follows (in millions):

| Total non-cash stock-based compensation | $5 | $4 | $22 | $14 |

---

**<u>Taxes</u>**

● During 2022 and 2021, we made aggregate federal and state income tax payments (net of refunds) of $180 million and $149 million, respectively. During 2023, we anticipate making income tax payments (before deducting refunds) within a range of $90 million to $110 million.

● As of December 31, 2022, we have an aggregate of $344 million of various state operating loss carryforwards, of which we expect that approximately one-third will be utilized.

**<u>Marquee Transaction</u>**

On February 15, 2023, we announced that we have reached agreements with Marquee Broadcasting, Inc. ("Marquee") through which we will sell television station KNIN (FOX) in the Boise, Idaho market (DMA 102) for $6 million, and purchase television station WPGA (MeTV) in the Macon, Georgia market (DMA 126) for $6 million. The completion of the transactions is subject to regulatory and other approvals.

**<u>Securitization Facility</u>**

On February 23, 2023, we, certain of our subsidiaries and a wholly-owned special purpose subsidiary (the "SPV"), entered into a three-year $300 million revolving accounts receivable securitization facility (the "Securitization Facility") with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, for the purpose of providing additional liquidity in order to repay indebtedness under the Senior Credit Facility. The Securitization Facility permits the SPV to draw up to a total of $300 million, subject to the outstanding amount of the receivables pool and other factors. The Securitization Facility is subject to interest charges, at the one-month Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") plus 100 basis points on the amount of the outstanding facility. The SPV is also required to pay an upfront fee and a commitment fee in connection with the Securitization Facility. On February 23, 2023, we drew $300 million under the Securitization Facility and intend to use the proceeds to pre-pay the outstanding principal balance of $295 million of Term Loan B under our Senior Credit Facility on March 1, 2023.

Under the Securitization Facility, the SPV will sell certain receivables and related rights ("Sold Receivables") and guarantee the collection of the Sold Receivables and pledge the remaining receivables and related rights that it owns in order to secure such guarantee. We will service the accounts receivables on behalf of the SPV for a fee.

The SPV is a separate legal entity with its own separate creditors who will be entitled to access the SPV's assets before the assets become available to us. As a result, the SPV's assets are not available to pay our creditors or any of our subsidiaries, although collections from the receivables in excess of amounts required to repay the purchasers under the Securitization Facility and other creditors of the SPV may be remitted to us.

The sale of receivables from SPV will be accounted for in the Company's financial statements as a "true-sale" under Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 860.

**<u>Interest Rate Cap</u>**

On February 23, 2023, we entered into interest rate caps pursuant to an International Swaps and Derivatives Association ("ISDA") Master Agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, NA and Truist Bank, respectively. The caps have a combined fixed notional value of approximately $2.6 billion through the last business day in 2024 and then a reduction in notional value to approximately $2.1 billion until maturity on December 31, 2025. The agreement effectively limits the annual interest charged on all of our variable rate debt to a maximum one-month LIBOR rate of 5 percent, plus the Applicable Margin, as specified in our Senior Credit Facility. The Company is also required to pay aggregate fees in connection with the agreement of approximately $32 million that is due and payable on December 31, 2025. The ISDA Master Agreement, together with its related schedules, contain customary representations, warranties and covenants. This hedging agreement was entered into to mitigate the interest rate risk inherent in our variable rate debt and is not for speculative trading purposes.

**Guidance for the Three-Months Ending March 31, 2023**

We present revenue net of agency commissions. We present operating expenses excluding depreciation, amortization and gain/loss on disposal of assets.

As noted above, Gray does not intend to present financial results in the Combined Historical Basis going forward due to the lack of material transactions since late 2021.

**Effects of Acquisitions and Divestitures on Our Results of Operations and Non-GAAP Terms**

------

From January 1, 2020, through December 31, 2021, we completed several acquisition and divestiture transactions. As more fully described in our Form 10-K to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission today and in our prior disclosures, these transactions materially affected our operations. We refer to all television stations acquired or divested from January 1, 2020 through December 31, 2021, as the "Acquisitions".

Due to the significant effect that the Acquisitions have had on our results of operations, and in order to provide more meaningful period over period comparisons, we present herein certain financial information on a Combined Historical Basis (or "CHB"). Combined Historical Basis gives effect to the revenue and broadcast expenses of all completed acquisitions and divestitures as if they had been acquired or divested, respectively, on the first day of the earliest period presented. It also gives effect to certain operating synergies expected from the acquisitions and related financings and adds back professional fees incurred in completing the acquisitions. Combined Historical Basis financial information does not include any adjustments for other events attributable to the Acquisitions unless otherwise described. Certain of the Combined Historical Basis financial information has been derived from, and adjusted based on unaudited, unreviewed financial information prepared by other entities, which Gray cannot independently verify. We cannot assure you that such financial information would not be materially different if such information were audited or reviewed and no assurances can be provided as to the accuracy of such information, or that our actual results would not differ materially from the Combined Historical Basis financial information if the Acquisitions had been completed at the stated date. In addition, the presentation of Combined Historical Basis may not comply with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") or the requirements for proforma financial information under Regulation S-X under the Securities Act of 1933.

From time to time, we supplement our financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP by disclosing the non-GAAP financial measures Broadcast Cash Flow, Broadcast Cash Flow Less Cash Corporate Expenses, Operating Cash Flow as defined in the Senior Credit Agreement, Free Cash Flow and Total Leverage Ratio, Net of All Cash. These non-GAAP amounts are used by us to approximate amounts used to calculate key financial performance covenants contained in our debt agreements and are used with our GAAP data to evaluate our results and liquidity.

We define Broadcast Cash Flow as net income or loss plus loss on early extinguishment of debt, non-cash corporate and administrative expenses, non-cash stock-based compensation, depreciation and amortization (including amortization of intangible assets and program broadcast rights), any loss on disposal of assets, any miscellaneous expense, interest expense, any income tax expense and non-cash 401(k) expense, less any gain on disposal of assets, any miscellaneous income, any income tax benefits and payments for program broadcast rights. CHB Broadcast Cash Flow also includes adjustments for Transaction Related Expenses and other adjustments.

We define Broadcast Cash Flow Less Cash Corporate Expenses as net income or loss plus loss on early extinguishment of debt, non-cash stock-based compensation, depreciation and amortization (including amortization of intangible assets and program broadcast rights), any loss on disposal of assets, any miscellaneous expense, interest expense, any income tax expense and non-cash 401(k) expense, less any gain on disposal of assets, any miscellaneous income, any income tax benefits and payments for program broadcast rights. CHB Broadcast Cash Flow Less Cash Corporate Expenses also includes adjustments for broadcasting Transaction Related Expenses, synergies and other adjustments.

We define Operating Cash Flow as defined in our Senior Credit Agreement as net income or loss plus loss on early extinguishment of debt, non-cash stock-based compensation, depreciation and amortization (including amortization of intangible assets and program broadcast rights), any loss on disposal of assets, any miscellaneous expense, interest expense, any income tax expense, non-cash 401(k) expense, Transaction Related Expenses, other adjustments, certain pension expenses, synergies, loss from unrestricted subsidiaries and other adjustments less any gain on disposal of assets, any miscellaneous income, any income tax benefits, payments for program broadcast rights, pension income, contributions to pension plans and income from unrestricted subsidiaries.

We define Free Cash Flow as net income or loss, plus loss on early extinguishment of debt, non-cash stock-based compensation, depreciation and amortization (including amortization of intangible assets and program broadcast rights), any loss on disposal of assets, any miscellaneous expense, any income tax expense, non-cash 401(k) expense, certain pension expenses, amortization of deferred financing costs less any gain on disposal of assets, any miscellaneous income, any income tax benefits, payments for program broadcast rights, pension income, contributions to pension plans, preferred stock dividends, common stock dividends, purchase of property and equipment (net of reimbursements and certain defined purchases, including related capitalized construction period interest) and income taxes paid (net of any refunds received and certain defined payments). CHB Free Cash Flow also includes adjustments for Transaction Related Expenses, synergies, unrestricted subsidiaries and other adjustments.

Our Total Leverage Ratio, Net of All Cash is determined by dividing our Adjusted Total Indebtedness, Net of All Cash, by our Operating Cash Flow as defined in our Senior Credit Agreement, divided by two. Our Adjusted Total Indebtedness, Net of All Cash, represents the total outstanding principal of our long-term debt, plus certain other obligations as defined in our Senior Credit Agreement, less all cash (excluding restricted cash). Our Operating Cash Flow, as defined in our Senior Credit Agreement, divided by two, represents our average annual Operating Cash Flow as defined in our Senior Credit Agreement for the preceding eight quarters.

We define Transaction Related Expenses as incremental expenses incurred specific to acquisitions and divestitures, including but not limited to legal and professional fees, severance and incentive compensation, and contract termination fees. We present certain line items from our selected operating data, net of Transaction Related Expenses, in order to present a more meaningful comparison between periods of our operating expenses and our results of operations.

These non-GAAP terms are not defined in GAAP and our definitions may differ from, and therefore may not be comparable to, similarly titled measures used by other companies, thereby limiting their usefulness. Such terms are used by management in addition to, and in conjunction with, results presented in accordance with GAAP and should be considered as supplements to, and not as substitutes for, net income and cash flows reported in accordance with GAAP.
