WASHINGTON, Nov. 3, 2011 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ --
Radio One, Inc. (NASDAQ: ROIAK and ROIA) today reported its
results for the quarter ended September 30,
2011. Giving effect to the consolidation of TV One,
net revenue was approximately $104.4 million, an
increase of 40.3% from the same period in 2010. Also giving
effect to the consolidation of TV One, station operating
income(1) was approximately $35.8 million, an
increase of 26.5% from the same period in 2010. The Company
reported operating income of approximately $13.1
million compared to operating income of approximately
$17.3 million for the same period in 2010. Net
loss was approximately $9.9 million or
$0.20 per share, compared to net income of
approximately $1.0 million or $0.02
per share for the same period in 2010.
Alfred C. Liggins, III, Radio One's CEO and
President stated, "The third quarter again highlights
the importance of consolidating TV One into our results:
radio was relatively flat, however, our TV and Internet
divisions both showed good revenue progression from prior
year, and provide a sound diversification strategy. We have
made some changes in certain radio markets designed to
improve long term performance: in Houston we are
launching News 92 FM; in Columbus, we switched
from gospel to the Jack format; in Detroit we
signed a local marketing agreement for 107.5 WGPR; and, in
Philadelphia, we moved our adult urban format to
our hip-hop signal, and vice versa. I am confident that these
strategic changes will reap rewards in the long-term."

Net revenue increased to approximately $104.4
million for the quarter ended September 30,
2011, from approximately $74.4 million
for the same period in 2010, an increase of 40.3%. We began
to consolidate the results of TV One during the second
quarter of 2011 and recognized approximately $29.5
million of revenue from our new cable television
segment during the three months ended September 30,
2011. The radio markets that we operate in grew 1.7%
for the quarter and 2.5% year to date, led primarily by
growth in digital revenues, while national revenue and local
revenue in our radio markets were relatively flat for the
quarter. Our radio stations' net revenues increased 0.3%
with the most significant increases noted in our
Atlanta, Charlotte,
Cincinnati, Raleigh and St.
Louis clusters, while our Columbus,
Dallas, Indianapolis and
Washington D.C. markets experienced the most
significant declines. Total core radio revenue (radio
stations and syndicated programs excluding Reach Media)
improved 1.4% during the quarter. While Reach Media's
revenue declined 4.7% in the quarter, this decline was an
improvement from the decline experienced during the second
quarter of 2011. Net revenue for our internet segment
improved 11.5% for the three months ended September 30,
2011 compared to the same period in 2010.
Operating expenses, excluding depreciation and amortization
and stock-based compensation, increased to approximately
$79.1 million for the quarter ended
September 30, 2011, up 53.3% from the
approximately $51.6 million incurred for the
comparable quarter in 2010. Most of the increase is a result
of the TV One consolidation specifically related to
programming and technical operating expenses. For our cable
television segment, programming and technical expenses
include expenses associated with the technical, programming,
production, and content management. Approximately $13.7
million of our consolidated programming and technical
operating expenses were incurred by TV One, with
approximately $11.2 million of this amount
relating specifically to content amortization. Excluding the
impact of consolidating TV One results, our programming and
technical expenses would have increased by 1.6% for the
quarter compared to the same period in 2010.
Stock-based compensation decreased to $759,000
for the quarter ended September 30, 2011,
compared to $908,000 for the same period in
2010. This decrease in stock-based compensation expense is
due to one-time accelerated vesting that occurred in 2010
associated with the long-term incentive plan whereby officers
and certain key employees were granted a total of 3,250,000
shares of restricted stock in January of 2010.
Depreciation and amortization expense increased to
approximately $11.5 million compared to
approximately $4.6 million for the quarters
ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively,
an increase of 150.0%. Additional depreciation and
amortization expense of approximately $7.8
million resulted from the fixed and intangible assets
recorded as part of the consolidation of TV One. This
increased expense was partially offset by the completion of
amortization for certain intangible assets and the completion
of depreciation and amortization for certain assets.
Interest expense increased to approximately $23.0
million for the quarter ended September 30,
2011, from approximately $12.1 million
for the same period in 2010, an increase of 90.1%. The
increase in interest expense was due to higher interest rates
associated with the 2011 Credit Agreement, Amended Exchange
Offer and TV One Notes, which were in effect for the three
months ended September 30, 2011 compared to the
same period in 2010. The overall effective rate of borrowing
for the three months ended September 30, 2011
increased approximately 4.0% compared to the three months
ended September 30, 2010. Approximately
$3.0 million of the increased interest expense
relates to the debt recorded as part of the consolidation of
TV One.
Equity in income of affiliated company decreased to
$0 for the quarter ended September 30,
2011, compared to approximately $1.8
million for the same period in 2010, a decrease of
100.0%. Equity in income of affiliated company primarily
reflects our estimated equity in the net income of TV One.
The decrease to equity in income of affiliated company for
the three months ended September 30, 2011 was
due to the consolidation of TV One during the prior quarter.
Previously, the Company's share of the net income was
driven by TV One's current capital structure and the
Company's percentage ownership of the equity securities
of TV One.
The benefit from income taxes for the quarter ended
September 30, 2011 was approximately $2.3
million compared to a provision for income taxes of
approximately $4.8 million for the quarter ended
September 30, 2010. Substantially all of the
decrease in income taxes relates to the deferred tax
liability for TV One. The consolidated effective tax rate for
the three months ended September 30, 2011 and
2010 was 23.9% and 68.3%, respectively.
Income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax,
includes the results of operations for our sold radio
stations and Giant Magazine, which ceased publication in
December 2009. The income from discontinued
operations, net of tax, for the three months ended
September 30, 2011 resulted from the remaining
Boston radio station entering into an LMA in
June 2011. The loss from discontinued
operations, net of tax, for the quarter ended September
30, 2010 of $158,000 resulted primarily
from legal and litigation expenses incurred as a result of
ongoing legal activity related to certain previously sold
stations. The income (loss) from discontinued operations, net
of tax, includes no tax provision for the three months ended
September 30, 2011 and 2010.
The increase in noncontrolling interests in income of
subsidiaries is due primarily to the impact of consolidating
TV One results for the three months ended September 30,
2011. This amount is partially offset by lower net
income generated by Reach Media for the three months ended
September 30, 2011 compared to the same period
in 2010.
Other pertinent financial information includes capital
expenditures of approximately $1.8 million and
$1.5 million for the quarters ended
September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. In
addition, as of September 30, 2011, Radio One
had total debt (net of cash balances) of approximately
$770.5 million.
Supplemental Financial Information:
For comparative purposes, the following more detailed and
unaudited statements of operations for the three and nine
months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 are
included. These detailed, unaudited and adjusted statements
of operations include certain reclassifications associated
with accounting for discontinued operations. These
reclassifications had no effect on previously reported net
income or loss, or any other previously reported statements
of operations, balance sheet or cash flow amounts.

Notes:
1 "Station operating income" consists of net loss
before depreciation and amortization, corporate expenses,
stock-based compensation, equity in income of affiliated
company, income taxes, noncontrolling interest in income
(loss) of subsidiaries, interest expense, impairment of
long-lived assets, other (income) expense, loss (gain) on
retirement of debt, (income) loss from discontinued
operations, net of tax, interest income and gain on purchase
of affiliated company. Station operating income is not a
measure of financial performance under generally accepted
accounting principles. Nevertheless we believe station
operating income is often a useful measure of a broadcasting
company's operating performance and is a significant
basis used by our management to measure the operating
performance of our stations within the various markets
because station operating income provides helpful information
about our results of operations apart from expenses
associated with our fixed assets and long-lived intangible
assets, income taxes, investments, debt financings and
retirements, overhead, stock-based compensation, impairment
charges, and asset sales. Station operating income is
frequently used as one of the bases for comparing businesses
in our industry, although our measure of station operating
income may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of
other companies. Station operating income does not purport to
represent operating income or cash flow from operating
activities, as those terms are defined under generally
accepted accounting principles, and should not be considered
as an alternative to those measurements as an indicator of
our performance. A reconciliation of net loss to station
operating income has been provided in this release. Station
operating income includes results from all three of our
operating segments (radio broadcasting, internet and cable
television).
2 Certain reclassifications associated with accounting for
discontinued operations have been made to prior period
balances to conform to the current presentation. These
reclassifications had no effect on any other previously
reported or consolidated net income or loss or any other
statement of operations, balance sheet or cash flow amounts.
Where applicable, these financial statements have been
identified as "as adjusted."
3 For the three months ended September 30, 2011
and 2010, Radio One had 50,270,550 and 52,064,108 shares of
common stock outstanding on a weighted average basis (basic),
and 50,270,550 and 54,262,885 shares of common stock
outstanding on a weighted average basis (fully diluted) for
outstanding stock options, respectively.
4 For the nine months ended September 30, 2011
and 2010, Radio One had 51,072,480 and 51,316,498 shares of
common stock outstanding on a weighted average basis basic,
and 52,943,536 and 51,316,498 shares of common stock
outstanding on a weighted average basis (fully diluted) for
outstanding stock options, respectively.
5 "Adjusted EBITDA" consists of net loss plus (1)
depreciation, amortization, income taxes, interest expense,
noncontrolling interest in income of subsidiaries, impairment
of long-lived assets, stock-based compensation, loss on
retirement of debt, loss from discontinued operations, net of
tax, less (2) equity in income of affiliated company, other
income, interest income and gain on purchase of affiliated
company. Net income 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 generally accepted accounting principles. We believe
Adjusted EBITDA is often a useful measure of a company's
operating performance and is a significant basis used by our
management to measure the operating performance of our
business because Adjusted EBITDA excludes charges for
depreciation, amortization and interest expense that have
resulted from our acquisitions and debt financing, our taxes,
impairment charges, as well as our equity in (income) loss of
our affiliated company, gain on retirements of debt, and any
discontinued operations. Accordingly, we believe that
Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information about the
operating performance of our business, apart from the
expenses associated with our fixed assets and long-lived
intangible assets, capital structure or the results of our
affiliated company. Adjusted EBITDA is frequently used as one
of the bases for comparing businesses in our industry,
although our measure of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable
to similarly titled measures of other companies. Adjusted
EBITDA and EBITDA do not purport to represent operating
income or cash flow from operating activities, as those terms
are defined under generally accepted accounting principles,
and should not be considered as alternatives to those
measurements as an indicator of our performance. A
reconciliation of net loss to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA has
been provided in this release.
