Discussion and Results

"As previously announced, this is the best first quarter operating performance in Company history.  Revenues increased and costs declined across all of our major business units resulting, once again, in operating margins that are among the best in the industry. 

"We remain focused on driving revenue and controlling costs while maximizing the positioning and penetration of our unique portfolio of assets in serving the needs of the U.S. Hispanic consumer.

"We will be pre-announcing second quarter estimates, evidencing continued positive momentum, within the next few weeks," commented Raúl Alarcón, Chairman and CEO.

Quarter End Results

For the quarter-ended March 31, 2018, consolidated net revenues totaled $33.9 million compared to $31.4 million for the same prior year period, resulting in an increase of $2.6 million or 8% primarily due to increases in revenue in our radio and television segments.  Our radio segment net revenues increased by $1.0 million or 4%, due to increases in local, network and special events revenue, which were partially offset by decreases in national and barter sales.  Our local sales increased in our Puerto Rico and Los Angeles markets, while our national sales decreased in our New York and San Francisco markets.  Our special events revenue increased primarily in our Puerto Rico and Los Angeles markets mainly due to an additional event and improved performance.  Our television segment net revenues increased by $1.5 million or 49%, due to the increases in special events revenue from the performance of a new event.

Consolidated Adjusted OIBDA, totaled $9.3 million compared to $5.9 million for the same prior year period, representing an increase of $3.5 million or 59%. Our radio segment Adjusted OIBDA increased $2.7 million or 31%, primarily due to a decrease in operating expenses of $1.7 million and an increase in net revenues of $1.0 million.  Radio station operating expenses decreased mainly due to decreases in digital development and content production costs related to the LaMusica application, special events, barter, bad debt expenses and the impact of a legal settlement offset by increases in professional fees, advertising and commissions expenses.  Our television segment Adjusted OIBDA improved $1.3 million or 202%, due to the increase in net revenues of $1.5 million, partially offset by an increase in operating expenses of $0.2 million. Television station operating expenses increased primarily due to increases in special event related expenses partially offset by decreases in originally produced programming costs and increases in related production tax credits.  Our corporate expenses, excluding non-cash stock-based compensation, increased $0.6 million or 24%, mostly due to increases in legal fees, compensation and benefits, and travel related expenses.

Operating income totaled approximately $7.6 million compared to $3.8 million for the same prior year period, representing an increase of $3.7 million or 97%.  This increase in operating income was primarily due to the increases in net revenues of $2.6 million and the decreases in operating expenses and recapitalization costs of $1.1 million and $0.1 million, respectively.  These recapitalization costs primarily include the incurrence of professional fees related to our continued recapitalization and restructuring efforts.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted Operating Income (Loss) before Depreciation and Amortization, (Gain) Loss on the Disposal of Assets, net, Impairment Charges and Restructuring Costs, and Recapitalization Costs excluding non-cash stock-based compensation ("Adjusted OIBDA") is not a measure of performance or liquidity determined in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") in the United States.  However, we believe that this measure is useful in evaluating our performance because it reflects a measure of performance for our stations before considering costs and expenses related to our capital structure and dispositions.  This measure is widely used in the broadcast industry to evaluate a company's operating performance and is used by us for internal budgeting purposes and to evaluate the performance of our stations, segments, management and consolidated operations.  However, this measure should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for Operating Income, Net Income, Cash Flows from Operating Activities or any other measure used in determining our operating performance or liquidity that is calculated in accordance with GAAP.  Adjusted OIBDA does not present station operating income as defined by our Indenture governing the Notes.  In addition, because Adjusted OIBDA is not calculated in accordance with GAAP, it is not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. 

Included below are tables that reconcile Adjusted OIBDA to operating income (loss) for each segment and consolidated operating income (loss), which is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.
