Three Months Ended September 30, 2012 Compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 2011
Net Revenues
Net revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2012 increased $150.6 million, or 120.7%, to $275.4 million, compared to $124.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011. This increase reflects the full period impact of net revenues from the acquisitions of Cumulus Media Partners, LLC (“CMP”) in August 2011 (the “CMP Acquisition”) and Citadel Broadcasting Corporation (“Citadel”) in September 2011 (the “Citadel Acquisition”) as well as a $4.6 million increase in political advertising. Revenue growth was partially offset by short term revenue impacts resulting from strategic format changes in some markets, general downward trends in the overall macro economic environment for radio and reduced use of trade advertising on acquired stations.
Direct Operating Expenses, Excluding Depreciation and Amortization
Direct operating expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2012 increased $88.0 million, or 119.4%, to $161.7 million, compared to $73.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011. This increase reflects the full period impact of direct operating expenses of CMP and Citadel, partially offset by a $7.1 million decrease in music licensing fees. Previously announced synergies resulted in reduced compensation costs and discretionary spending related to promotions, as well as enhanced expense controls.
Corporate General and Administrative Expenses, Including Stock-based Compensation Expense
Corporate general and administrative expenses, including stock-based compensation expense, for the three months ended September 30, 2012 decreased $31.7 million, or 70.9%, to $13.0 million, compared to $44.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011. This decrease is primarily comprised of a $35.7 million decrease in acquisition and restructuring costs primarily related to the Citadel and CMP acquisitions completed in 2011, partially offset by a $1.2 million increase in stock-based compensation expense.
Interest Expense, net
Total interest expense, net of interest income, for the three months ended September 30, 2012 increased $30.3 million, or 155.1%, to $49.8 million compared to $19.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011. Interest expense associated with outstanding debt increased by $26.9 million to $46.9 million as compared to $20.0 million in the prior year period. Interest expense increased due to a higher average amount of indebtedness outstanding as a result of the CMP and Citadel acquisitions and the Company’s related refinancing (the “Refinancing”) in the third quarter of 2011.
Capital Expenditures
Capital expenditures for the three months ended September 30, 2012 totaled $2.7 million which represented routine capital expenditures. Capital expenditures during the three months ended September 30, 2011 were $1.4 million.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2012 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2011
Net Revenues
Net revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 increased $553.7 million, or 232.0%, to $792.4 million, compared to $238.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. This increase reflects the impact of net revenues from CMP and Citadel, as well as a $10.6 million increase in political advertising. Revenue growth was partially offset by short term revenue impacts resulting from strategic format changes in some markets, general downward trends in the overall macro economic environment for radio and reduced use of trade advertising on acquired stations.
Direct Operating Expenses, Excluding Depreciation and Amortization
Direct operating expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 increased $341.4 million, or 239.3%, to $484.1 million, compared to $142.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. This increase reflects the impact of direct operating expenses of CMP and Citadel, partially offset by a $7.1 million decrease in music license fees. Previously announced synergies resulted in reduced compensation costs and discretionary spending related to promotions, as well as enhanced expense controls.
Corporate General and Administrative Expenses, Including Stock-based Compensation Expense
Corporate general and administrative expenses, including stock-based compensation expense, for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 decreased $15.4 million, or 25.0%, to $46.5 million, compared to $61.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. This decrease is primarily comprised of a $2.6 million reduction of certain contractual obligations assumed in the Citadel Acquisition and a $35.8 million reduction in acquisition costs since the prior year period included costs associated with the CMP and Citadel acquisitions. This was partially offset by a $12.9 million increase in stock-based compensation expense attributed mainly to the Citadel Acquisition and additional personnel costs of $4.2 million.
Interest Expense, net
Total interest expense, net of interest income, for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 increased $115.2 million, or 329.1%, to $150.2 million compared to $35.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. Interest expense associated with outstanding debt increased by $107.4 million to $142.1 million as compared to $34.7 million in the prior year period. Interest expense increased due to a higher average amount of indebtedness outstanding as a result of indebtedness incurred to complete the CMP and Citadel Acquisitions and the Refinancing in the third quarter of 2011.

Capital Expenditures
Capital expenditures for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 totaled $4.7 million, which represented routine capital expenditures. Capital expenditures during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 were $2.9 million.
Earnings (Loss) Per Share
Basic earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) is calculated for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 by dividing undistributed net income from continuing operations of $26.8 million and $12.4 million, respectively, adjusted for dividends declared on preferred stock for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 of $3.4 million and $11.1 million, respectively, and the accretion of redeemable preferred stock for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 of $1.4 million and $6.1 million, respectively, by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the applicable period, which was 169,510,007 shares and 158,902,196 shares for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, respectively. Diluted EPS for the three months ended September 30, 2012 was calculated in the same manner as basic EPS, after adjusting for the inclusion of 6.8 million potentially dilutive securities represented by shares of common stock underlying certain outstanding warrants. Diluted EPS for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 is equal to basic EPS due to the exclusion of 53.1 million potentially dilutive securities. The potentially dilutive securities consisted of shares of common stock underlying certain outstanding warrants that were excluded because their impact was antidilutive due to the net loss reported for that period. Basic and diluted EPS for discontinued operations is computed in the same matter as EPS for continuing operations, excluding any adjustments for dividends accrued and accreted. Basic and diluted EPS for net income (loss) is computed in the same matter as EPS for continuing operations.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We utilize certain financial measures that are not prepared or calculated in accordance with GAAP to assess our financial performance and profitability. The non-GAAP financial measures used in this release are Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow.
Adjusted EBITDA
We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before any non-operating expenses, including net interest expense, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense, gain or loss on exchange or sale of assets or stations (if any), any realized gain or loss on derivative instruments, any impairment of intangible assets and goodwill, local marketing agreement (“LMA”) fees, acquisition-related costs and franchise taxes.
Adjusted EBITDA is the financial metric utilized by management to analyze the cash flow generated by our business. This measure isolates the amount of income generated by our radio stations after the incurrence of corporate general and administrative expenses. Management also uses this measure to determine the contribution of our radio station portfolio, including the corporate resources employed to manage the portfolio, to the funding of our other operating expenses and to the funding of debt service and acquisitions. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA is a key metric for purposes of calculating and determining our compliance with certain covenants contained in our first lien credit facility.
In deriving this measure, management excludes depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation expense from the measure, as these do not represent cash payments for activities related to the operation of the radio stations. In addition, we also exclude LMA fees and franchise taxes from our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, even though such fees and taxes require a cash settlement, because they are excluded from the definition of Adjusted EBITDA contained in our first lien credit facility. Management excludes any gain or loss on the exchange or sale of radio stations as it does not represent a cash transaction. Management also excludes any realized gain or loss on derivative instruments as it does not represent a cash transaction nor is it associated with radio station operations. Management excludes any impairment of goodwill and intangible assets as it does not require a cash outlay. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA, although not a measure that is calculated in accordance with GAAP, nevertheless is commonly employed by the investment community as a measure for determining the market value of a radio company. Management has also observed that Adjusted EBITDA is routinely employed to evaluate and negotiate the potential purchase price for radio broadcasting companies. Given the relevance to our overall value, management believes that investors consider the metric to be extremely useful.
Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation of, or as a substitute for, net income, operating income, cash flows from operating activities or any other measure for determining our operating performance or liquidity that is calculated in accordance with GAAP.
A quantitative reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss), the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, is provided under “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures to Most Directly Comparable GAAP Measures” below.
Free Cash Flow
Free cash flow is also utilized by management to analyze the cash generated by our business. Free cash flow measures the amount of income generated during the applicable period that could be used to fund acquisitions or other growth opportunities or for reinvestment in the business, after funding station and corporate, general and administrative expenses (excluding transaction costs), debt service, income taxes, and capital expenditures.
We define free cash flow as net income (loss) before any non-operating expenses, including net interest expense, stock-based compensation expense, depreciation and amortization, gain or loss on the exchange or sale of assets or stations (if any), and any realized gain or loss on derivative instruments, any impairment of intangible assets and goodwill, net of interest expense (excluding any non-cash charges or credits for changes in values of swaps and amortization of debt issuance costs), income taxes paid and capital expenditures.
Management excludes depreciation and amortization, any gain or loss on the exchange or sale of assets or stations, any realized gain or loss on derivative instruments or impairment of intangible assets and goodwill and other non-cash expenses, including stock-based compensation, as they do not represent cash transactions. Management deducts payments for debt service, income taxes and capital expenditures since these represent amounts that are consistently necessary for our continuing operations in order to arrive at free cash flow available for growth opportunities or reinvestment in our business.
Management believes that free cash flow, although not a measure that is prepared or calculated in accordance with GAAP, is
7
commonly employed by the investment community to evaluate a company’s ability to pay down debt, pay dividends, repurchase stock and/or facilitate the further growth of a company through acquisition or internal development. Management further believes that free cash flow is also utilized by investors as a measure in determining the market value of a radio company.
Free cash flow should not be considered in isolation of or as a substitute for net income, operating income, cash flows from operating activities or any other measure for determining our operating performance or liquidity that is calculated in accordance with GAAP. In addition, because free cash flow is not calculated or presented in accordance with GAAP, it may not be calculated or presented comparably to similarly titled measures used by other companies, and thus comparability may be limited. A quantitative reconciliation of free cash flow to net income (loss) calculated in accordance with GAAP is provided.
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures to Most Directly Comparable GAAP Measures
The following tables reconcile net income, the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, to Adjusted EBITDA on a pro forma and as reported basis for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 (dollars in thousands):

| (A) | Adjustment to reflect the termination of the CMP Management Agreement. Prior to the completion of the CMP Acquisition, Cumulus managed CMP’s business pursuant to a management agreement (the “CMP Management Agreement”). Under the terms of the CMP Management Agreement, CMP was required to pay to Cumulus the greater of $4.0 million or 4.0% of the Adjusted EBITDA on an annual basis of certain of CMP’s subsidiaries. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, $0.3 million and $2.3 million, respectively, was eliminated from net revenues and corporate general and administrative expenses. |
| (B) | Adjustment to increase pro forma depreciation and amortization expense to reflect the impact of the increase in the fair value of tangible assets and amortizable intangible assets acquired due to the application of the acquisition method of accounting. Pro forma depreciation and amortization expense has been adjusted to reflect the final valuations of property and equipment and definite-lived intangible assets acquired in the CMP Acquisition and the Citadel Acquisition, and for the preliminary valuation of property and equipment and definitie-lived intangible assets acquired in the Townsquare Asset Exchange. |
| (C) | Acquisition-related costs.Excludes acquisition-related costs of $59.7 million and $73.9 million for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2011, respectively. Excludes acquisition-related costs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 of $2.7 million and $8.2 million, respectively. |
| (D) | Adjustment to recognize interest expense incurred pursuant to the Refinancing. As part of the Refinancing, all outstanding indebtedness of each of Cumulus and Citadel was refinanced. This adjustment reflects the increased interest expense assuming the Refinancing was completed effective as of January 1, 2010. As part of the Refinancing, in May 2011, Cumulus issued $610.0 million aggregate principal amount of 7.75% senior notes, the proceeds of which were used to, among other things, repay amounts outstanding under Cumulus’ then-existing term loan facility. Also, as part of the Refinancing and in connection with the completion of the Citadel Acquisition, on September 16, 2011, the Company obtained financing, which was used in part for the repayment of certain outstanding indebtedness of each of Cumulus, CMP and Citadel. |
| (E) | Adjustment to reflect income tax impacts on pro forma adjustments. Adjustment to reflect the income tax impacts resulting from the pro forma adjustments to the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations were based on an estimated combined federal and state statutory income tax rate of 38.0%. |

Footnotes to Supplemental Unaudited Pro Forma Quarterly Financial Information
| (A) | Adjustments to reflect the termination of the CMP Management Agreement. For the quarters ended March 31, 2011, June 30, 2011 and September 30, 2011, $1.0 million, $1.0 million and $0.3 million, respectively, was eliminated from net revenues and corporate general and administrative expenses related to the termination of the CMP Management Agreement. |
| (B) | Adjustments to increase pro forma depreciation and amortization expense to reflect the impact of the increase in the estimated fair value of tangible assets and amortizable intangible assets due to the application of the acquisition method of accounting. Pro forma depreciation and amortization expense has been adjusted to reflect the final valuations of property and equipment and definite-lived intangible assets acquired in the CMP Acquisition and the Citadel Acquisition, and to reflect the preliminary valuation of property and equipment and definite-lived intangible assets acquired in the Townsquare Asset Exchange. |
| (C) | Acquisition-related stock-based compensation expense. Reflected in the quarter ended September 30, 2011 is the elimination of stock-based compensation expenses of $20.0 million incurred by Citadel due to the acceleration of vesting of certain outstanding equity awards resulting from the completion of the Citadel Acquisition. |
| (D) | Acquisition-related costs. Reflects the elimination of $6.5 million, $7.7 million, $59.7 million and $10.3 million of non-recurring transaction-related costs incurred for the quarters ended March 31, 2011, June 30, 2011, September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2011, respectively. |
| (E) | Adjustments to recognize interest expense incurred pursuant to the Refinancing. This adjustment reflects the increased interest expense associated with the completion of the Refinancing. |
| (F) | Gain on equity investment.Cumulus Media recognized a gain of $11.6 million, representing the adjustment to fair value of its previously held equity interest in CMP at the time of the CMP Acquisition, and this amount has been excluded from the accompanying pro forma condensed consolidated statement of operations for the quarter ended September 30, 2011. |
| (G) | Adjustments to reflect income tax impacts on pro forma adjustments.Adjustments to reflect the income tax impacts resulting from the pro forma adjustments to the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations were based on an estimated combined federal and state statutory income tax rate of 38.0%. Included in the full year ended December 31, 2011 is also an adjustment to income tax expense in the amount of $77.6 million to reverse the effect of releasing the valuation allowance against the Company’s deferred tax assets at the time of the Citadel Acquisition. |
| (H) | The Company has previously prepared and disclosed certain required pro forma financial information under Article 11 of the Securities and Exchange Commission regulations relating to Citadel and CMP. Any significant differences between the pro forma financial information previously disclosed and that presented herein principally relate to the amortization and depreciation of intangible and tangible assets and the related income tax effect thereon, which have been based on preliminary purchase price allocation information, related to the amount of and estimated life of such assets, respectively, available at the time of preparation of such information. The asset allocation valuation and estimated life information is prepared by the Company with the assistance of a third party specialist in purchase price allocation matters. At the time of the filing of the 2011 Form 10-K, such purchase price allocations had been updated by the third party specialist with additional amounts being allocated to amortizable intangible assets than had been disclosed in our earlier pro forma financial information. Any change to these assets would impact our estimates on depreciation and amortization and a related pro forma income tax effect. Also in our earnings release on March 12, 2012, our fourth quarter 2011 pro forma statement of operations included actual amortization and depreciation expense for the three months ended December 31, 2011. The pro forma statement of operations presented herein for the quarter ended December 31, 2011 reflects pro forma amortization and depreciation as if the Citadel and CMP Acquisitions had occurred as of January 1, 2010. The pro forma statements of operations presentation herein for all periods reflects pro forma amortization and depreciation as if the Townsquare Asset Exchange occurred as of January 1, 2011. The difference in actual compared to assumed transaction closing dates (actual closings of each of the Citadel and CMP Acquisitions in the quarter ended September 30, 2011 compared to the pro forma financial information assuming the acquisitions occurred as of January 1, 2010) effects the amortization and depreciation expense and the related tax effect because the Company utilizes an accelerated amortization method for certain amortizable intangible assets as described in our footnotes to our audited financial statements as included in our 2011 Form 10-K. |

The following supplemental unaudited pro forma financial information is intended to provide you with information about how the Townsquare Asset Exchange might have affected our historical consolidated quarterly financial statements during each completed quarterly period during 2012 and the nine months ended September 30, 2012 if such asset exchange had closed as of January 1, 2011. No pro forma adjustments have been made to reflect the CMP and Citadel Acquisitions since they have been completed before the earliest date presented.
