Basis Of Presentation	'
	NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION
	Preparation of Interim Financial Statements
	The accompanying consolidated financial statements were prepared by Clear Channel Outdoor Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and, in the opinion of management, include all normal and recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the results of the interim periods shown. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such SEC rules and regulations. Management believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. Due to seasonality and other factors, the results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. The financial statements contained herein should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
	The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries and give effect to allocations of expenses from the Company's indirect parent entity, Clear Channel Communications, Inc. (“Clear Channel Communications”). These allocations were made on a specifically identifiable basis or using relative percentages of headcount or other methods management considered to be a reasonable reflection of the utilization of services provided. Also included in the consolidated financial statements are entities for which the Company has a controlling financial interest or is the primary beneficiary. Investments in companies in which the Company owns 20 percent to 50 percent of the voting common stock or otherwise exercises significant influence over operating and financial policies of the Company are accounted for under the equity method. All significant intercompany transactions are eliminated in the consolidation process. Certain prior-period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 2013 presentation.
	Adoption of New Accounting Standards
	During the first quarter of 2013, the Company adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board's (“FASB”) ASU No. 2013-02, Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income. The amendments are effective for fiscal years (and interim periods within) beginning after December 15, 2012 and sets requirements for presenting information about amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income and their corresponding effect on net income. Substantially all of the information required to be disclosed under this amendment are required to be disclosed elsewhere in the financial statements under GAAP. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
	During the first quarter of 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-04, Obligations Resulting from Joint and Several Liability Arrangements for Which the Total Amount of the Obligation Is Fixed at the Reporting Date. This update provides guidance for the recognition, measurement and disclosure of obligations resulting from joint and several liability arrangements for which the total amount of the obligation within the scope of this guidance is fixed at the reporting date. The amendments are effective for fiscal years (and interim periods within) beginning after December 15, 2013 and are to be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented for such obligations that exist at the beginning of an entity's fiscal year of adoption. Early adoption is permitted. The Company plans to adopt the standard on a retrospective basis for the first quarter of 2014 for any existing obligations within the scope of this update. The Company is currently evaluating the guidance to determine the potential impact, if any, the adoption may have on its financial results and disclosures.
	During the first quarter of 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-05, Parent's Accounting for the Cumulative Translation Adjustment upon Derecognition of Certain Subsidiaries or Groups of Assets within a Foreign Entity of an Investment in a Foreign Entity. The amendments are effective prospectively for the fiscal years (and interim periods within) beginning after December 15, 2013 and provide clarification guidance for the release of the cumulative translation adjustment under the current GAAP. Early adoption is permitted. The Company plans to adopt the standard for the first quarter of 2014. The Company is currently evaluating the guidance to determine the potential impact, if any, the adoption may have on its financial results and disclosures.
	During the third quarter of 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-11, Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists. This update requires unrecognized tax benefits to be offset against a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, similar tax loss or tax credit carryforward in certain situations. The amendments are effective prospectively for the fiscal years (and interim periods within) beginning after December 15, 2013. Early adoption is permitted. The Company plans to adopt the standard for the first quarter of 2014. The Company does not expect any material impact upon adopting the standard.

	NOTE 2 – PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT, INTANGIBLE ASSETS AND GOODWILL
	Property, Plant and Equipment
	The Company's property, plant and equipment consisted of the following classes of assets at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively:
	(In thousands)	30-Sep-13			31-Dec-12

	Property, plant and equipment, net	$	2,071,334		$	2,207,744
	Indefinite-lived Intangible Assets
	The Company's indefinite-lived intangible assets consist primarily of billboard permits in its Americas segment. Due to significant differences in both business practices and regulations, billboards in the International segment are subject to long-term, finite contracts unlike the Company's permits in the United States and Canada. Accordingly, there are no indefinite-lived intangible assets in the International segment.
	Other Intangible Assets
	Other intangible assets include definite-lived intangible assets and permanent easements. The Company's definite-lived intangible assets consist primarily of transit and street furniture contracts, site-leases and other contractual rights, all of which are amortized over the shorter of either the respective lives of the agreements or over the period of time the assets are expected to contribute directly or indirectly to the Company's future cash flows. Permanent easements are indefinite-lived intangible assets which include certain rights to use real property not owned by the Company. The Company periodically reviews the appropriateness of the amortization periods related to its definite-lived intangible assets. These assets are recorded at cost.
	The following table presents the gross carrying amount and accumulated amortization for each major class of other intangible assets at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively:
	(In thousands)	30-Sep-13						31-Dec-12

	Total amortization expense related to definite-lived intangible assets for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 was $17.3 million and $18.9 million, respectively. Total amortization expense related to definite-lived intangible assets for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 was $53.3 million and $56.0 million, respectively.

	The aggregate market value of the Company's debt based on market prices for which quotes were available was approximately $5.1 billion at each of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012. Under the fair value hierarchy established by ASC 820-10-35, the market value of the Company's debt is classified as Level 2.
	Senior Revolving Credit Facility Due 2018
	During the third quarter of 2013, the Company entered into a five-year senior secured revolving credit facility with an aggregate principal amount of $75.0 million. The revolving credit facility may be used for working capital, to issue letters of credit and for other general corporate purposes. At September 30, 2013, there were no amounts outstanding under the revolving credit facility, and $32.6 million of letters of credit under the revolving credit facility, which reduce availability under the facility.

	NOTE 4 – SUPPLEMENTAL DISCLOSURES
	Income Tax Benefit (Expense)
	The Company's income tax benefit (expenses) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, consisted of the following components:
	(In thousands)	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,

	Income tax benefit (expense)	$	10,214	$	-8,212	$	3,126	$	-1,000
	The effective tax rate is the provision for income taxes as a percent of income before income taxes. The effective tax rates for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 were (575.1)% and 6.7%, respectively. The effective rate was primarily impacted by the settlement of tax examinations which resulted in a reduction in tax expense of approximately $1.0 million during the period and the Company's inability to record tax benefits on tax losses in certain foreign jurisdictions due to the uncertainty of the ability to utilize those losses in future years.
	The effective tax rates for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 were 24.9% and (5.3)%, respectively. The effective rate for the three months ended September 30, 2012 was primarily impacted by reduced non-U.S. tax rates on financial reporting gains resulting from the disposition of certain foreign subsidiaries. The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 was primarily impacted by the inability to record tax benefits on tax losses in certain foreign jurisdictions due to the uncertainty of the ability to utilize those losses in future periods.
	Supplemental Cash Flow Information
	During the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, cash paid for interest and income taxes, net of income tax refunds of $1.2 million and $3.7 million, respectively, was as follows:

	The Company holds marketable equity securities classified in accordance with the provisions of ASC 320-10. These marketable equity securities are measured at fair value on each reporting date using quoted prices in active markets. Due to the fact that the inputs used to measure the marketable equity securities at fair value are observable, the Company has categorized the fair value measurements of the securities as Level 1 in accordance with ASC 820-10-35. The Company records its investments in these marketable equity securities on the balance sheet as “Other Assets.”

	NOTE 6 – COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENCIES AND GUARANTEES
	The Company and its subsidiaries are involved in certain legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business and, as required, have accrued an estimate of the probable costs for the resolution of those claims for which the occurrence of loss is probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. These estimates have been developed in consultation with counsel and are based upon an analysis of potential results, assuming a combination of litigation and settlement strategies. It is possible, however, that future results of operations for any particular period could be materially affected by changes in the Company's assumptions or the effectiveness of its strategies related to these proceedings. Additionally, due to the inherent uncertainty of litigation, there can be no assurance that the resolution of any particular claim or proceeding would not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition or results of operations.
	Although the Company is involved in a variety of legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business, a large portion of the Company's litigation arises in the following contexts: commercial disputes; employment and benefits related claims; governmental fines; and tax disputes.
	Stockholder Litigation
	Two derivative lawsuits were filed in March 2012 in Delaware Chancery Court by stockholders of the Company.  The consolidated lawsuits were captioned In re Clear Channel Outdoor Holdings, Inc. Derivative Litigation, Consolidated Case No. 7315-CS. The complaints named as defendants certain of Clear Channel Communications' and the Company's current and former directors and Clear Channel Communications, as well as Bain Capital Partners, LLC and Thomas H. Lee Partners, L.P.  The Company also was named as a nominal defendant.  The complaints alleged, among other things, that in December 2009 Clear Channel Communications breached fiduciary duties to the Company and its stockholders by allegedly requiring the Company to agree to amend the terms of a revolving promissory note payable by Clear Channel Communications to the Company (the “Due from CCU Note”) to extend the maturity date of the note and to amend the interest rate payable on the note. According to the complaints, the terms of the amended Due from CCU Note were unfair to the Company because, among other things, the interest rate was below market.  The complaints further alleged that Clear Channel Communications was unjustly enriched as a result of that transaction.  The complaints also alleged that the director defendants breached fiduciary duties to the Company in connection with that transaction and that the transaction constituted corporate waste. On March 28, 2013, to avoid the costs, disruption and distraction of further litigation, and without admitting the validity of any allegations made in the complaint, legal counsel for the defendants entered into a binding memorandum of understanding (the “MOU”) with legal counsel for a special litigation committee consisting of certain of the Company's independent directors and the plaintiffs to settle the litigation. The Company filed the MOU with the SEC as an exhibit to its Current Report on Form 8-K filed on April 3, 2013. On July 8, 2013, the parties executed a Stipulation of Settlement, on terms consistent with the MOU, and presented the Stipulation of Settlement to the Delaware Chancery Court for approval. The Company filed the Stipulation of Settlement with the SEC as an exhibit to its Current Reports on Form 8-K filed on July 9, 2013 and July 19, 2013. On September 9, 2013, the Delaware Chancery Court approved the settlement and, on October 9, 2013, the right to appeal expired.
	On October 19, 2013, in accordance with the terms of the settlement, the Company (i) notified Clear Channel Communications of its intent to make a demand for repayment of $200 million outstanding under the Due from CCU Note on November 8, 2013, (ii) declared a dividend of $200 million, which is conditioned upon Clear Channel Communications having satisfied such demand, to be paid on November 8, 2013, and (iii) established a committee of its board of directors for the specific purpose of monitoring the Due from CCU Note.
	On October 23, 2013, Clear Channel Communications and the Company amended the Due from CCU Note in accordance with the terms of the settlement.
	The Company announced its intent to make a demand for repayment of $200 million outstanding under the Due from CCU Note and its declaration of the dividend in its Current Report on Form 8-K filed on October 21, 2013, and filed a copy of the amendment to the Due from CCU Note as an exhibit to its Current Report on Form 8-K filed on October 23, 2013.
	Los Angeles Litigation
	In 2008, Summit Media, LLC, one of the Company's competitors, sued the City of Los Angeles (the “City”), Clear Channel Outdoor, Inc. and CBS Outdoor in Los Angeles Superior Court (Case No. BS116611) challenging the validity of a settlement agreement that had been entered into in November 2006 among the parties. Pursuant to the settlement agreement, Clear Channel Outdoor, Inc. had taken down existing billboards and converted 83 existing signs from static displays to digital displays pursuant to modernization permits issued through an administrative process of the City. The Los Angeles Superior Court ruled in January 2010 that the settlement agreement constituted an ultra vires act of the City and nullified its existence, but did not invalidate the modernization permits issued to Clear Channel Outdoor, Inc. and CBS. All parties appealed the ruling by the Los Angeles Superior Court to Court of Appeal for the State of California, Second Appellate District, Division 8. On December 10, 2012, the Court of Appeal issued an order upholding the Superior Court's finding that the settlement agreement was ultra vires and remanding the case to the Superior Court for the purpose of invalidating the modernization permits issued to Clear Channel Outdoor, Inc. and CBS for the digital displays that were the subject of the settlement agreement.  On January 22, 2013, Clear Channel Outdoor, Inc. filed a petition with the California Supreme Court requesting its review of the matter, and the Supreme Court denied that petition on February 27, 2013. On April 12, 2013, the Los Angeles Superior Court invalidated 82 digital modernization permits issued to Clear Channel Outdoor, Inc. and 13 issued to CBS and ordered that the companies turn off the electrical power to affected digital displays by the close of business on April 15, 2013.  Clear Channel Outdoor, Inc. has complied with the order.  On April 16, 2013, the Court conducted further proceedings during which it held that it was not invalidating two additional digital modernization permits that Clear Channel Outdoor, Inc. had secured through a special zoning plan and confirmed that its April 12 order invalidated only digital modernization permits – no other types of permits the companies may have secured for the signs at issue. Summit Media, LLC has filed a further motion requesting that the Court order the demolition of the 82 sign structures on which the now-invalidated digital signs operated, as well as the invalidation of several other permits for traditional signs allegedly issued under the settlement agreement. At a hearing held on September 16, 2013 the Court ordered Clear Channel Outdoor, Inc. to produce evidence on a sign-by-sign basis of the permitting history of each sign. This evidentiary hearing is scheduled for November 8, 2013. Additionally, Summit Media, LLC has filed a motion for attorney's fees under a private attorney general theory. That motion currently is scheduled to be heard on December 11, 2013.
	Guarantees
	As of September 30, 2013, the Company had $71.2 million in letters of credit outstanding, of which $36.3 million of letters of credit were cash secured. Additionally, as of September 30, 2013, Clear Channel Communications had outstanding commercial standby letters of credit and surety bonds of $0.3 million and $47.6 million, respectively, held on behalf of the Company.

	In addition, as of September 30, 2013, the Company had outstanding bank guarantees of $51.4 million related to international subsidiaries, of which $13.7 million were backed by cash collateral.

Related Party Transactions	'
	NOTE 7 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
	The Company records net amounts due to or from Clear Channel Communications as “Due from/to Clear Channel Communications” on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The accounts represent the revolving promissory note issued by the Company to Clear Channel Communications and the Due from CCU Note, in the face amount of $1.0 billion, or if more or less than such amount, the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all advances. The accounts accrue interest pursuant to the terms of the promissory notes and are generally payable on demand or when they mature on December 15, 2017.
	Included in the accounts are the net activities resulting from day-to-day cash management services provided by Clear Channel Communications. As a part of these services, the Company maintains collection bank accounts swept daily into accounts of Clear Channel Communications (after satisfying the funding requirements of the Trustee Accounts under the Clear Channel Worldwide Holdings, Inc. (“CCWH”) senior notes and the CCWH Subordinated Notes). In return, Clear Channel Communications funds the Company's controlled disbursement accounts as checks or electronic payments are presented for payment. The Company's claim in relation to cash transferred from its concentration account is on an unsecured basis and is limited to the balance of the “Due from Clear Channel Communications” account. At September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the asset recorded in “Due from Clear Channel Communications” on the condensed consolidated balance sheets was $944.6 million and $729.2 million, respectively.
	The net interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 was $14.9 million and $16.9 million, respectively. The net interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 was $39.4 million and $49.0 million, respectively. At September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the fixed interest rate on the “Due from Clear Channel Communications” account was 6.5%, which is equal to the fixed interest rate on the CCWH senior notes.
	The Company provides advertising space on its billboards for radio stations owned by Clear Channel Communications. For the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company recorded $1.1 million and $0.5 million, respectively, in revenue for these advertisements. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company recorded $1.3 million and $1.1 million, respectively, in revenue for these advertisements.
	Under the Corporate Services Agreement between Clear Channel Communications and the Company, Clear Channel Communications provides management services to the Company, which include, among other things: (i) treasury, payroll and other financial related services; (ii) certain executive officer services; (iii) human resources and employee benefits services; (iv) legal and related services; (v) information systems, network and related services; (vi) investment services; (vii) procurement and sourcing support services; and (viii) other general corporate services. These services are charged to the Company based on actual direct costs incurred or allocated by Clear Channel Communications based on headcount, revenue or other factors on a pro rata basis. For the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company recorded $8.9 million and $9.5 million, respectively, as a component of corporate expenses for these services. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company recorded $27.6 million and $24.6 million, respectively, as a component of corporate expenses for these services.
	Pursuant to the Tax Matters Agreement between Clear Channel Communications and the Company, the operations of the Company are included in a consolidated federal income tax return filed by Clear Channel Communications. The Company's provision for income taxes has been computed on the basis that the Company files separate consolidated federal income tax returns with its subsidiaries. Tax payments are made to Clear Channel Communications on the basis of the Company's separate taxable income. Tax benefits recognized on the Company's employee stock option exercises are retained by the Company.
	The Company computes its deferred income tax provision using the liability method in accordance with the provisions of ASC 740-10, as if the Company was a separate taxpayer. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between financial reporting bases and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the periods in which the deferred tax asset or liability is expected to be realized or settled. Deferred tax assets are reduced by valuation allowances if the Company believes it is more likely than not some portion or all of the asset will not be realized.
	Pursuant to the Employee Matters Agreement, the Company's employees participate in Clear Channel Communications' employee benefit plans, including employee medical insurance and a 401(k) retirement benefit plan. These costs are recorded as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses and were approximately $2.6 million and $2.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company recorded approximately $8.0 million and $8.6 million, respectively, as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses for these services.
