Nature of business
Nature of business	Note 1. Nature of business Nature of business: The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Hemisphere Media Group, Inc. (“Hemisphere” or the “Company”), the parent holding company of Cine Latino, Inc. (“Cinelatino”), WAPA Holdings, LLC (formerly known as InterMedia Español Holdings, LLC) (“WAPA”), and HMTV Cable, Inc., the parent company of the Acquired Cable Networks consisting of Pasiones, TV Dominicana, and Centroamerica TV (see below). The Company determines its operating segments based upon (i) financial information reviewed by the chief operating decision maker, the Chief Executive Officer, (ii) internal management and related reporting structure and (iii) the basis upon which the chief operating decision maker makes resource allocation decisions. We have one operating segment, Hemisphere. In these notes, the terms “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our” mean Hemisphere and all subsidiaries included in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Basis of presentation: The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for Hemisphere and its subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations, although we believe that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading. In our opinion, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair statement have been included. Our financial condition as of, and operating results, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the financial condition or results that may be expected for any future interim period or for the year ending December 31, 2016. These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015. Net earnings per common share: Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) are computed by dividing income attributable to common stockholders by the number of weighted-average outstanding shares of common stock. Diluted EPS reflects the effect of the assumed exercise of stock options and vesting of restricted shares only in the periods in which such effect would have been dilutive. The following table sets forth the computation of the common shares outstanding used in determining basic and diluted EPS ( amounts in thousands, except per share amounts): Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, 2016 2015 2016 2015 Numerator for earnings per common share calculation: Net income $ $ $ $ Denominator for earnings per common share calculation: Weighted-average common shares, basic Effect of dilutive securities Stock options, restricted stock and warrants Weighted-average common shares, diluted EPS Basic $ $ $ $ Diluted $ $ $ $ We apply the treasury stock method to measure the dilutive effect of our outstanding stock options and restricted stock awards and include the respective common share equivalents in the denominator of our diluted income per common share calculation. Potentially dilutive securities representing 1.1 million shares of common stock for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively, were excluded from the computation of diluted income per common share for this period because their effect would have been anti-dilutive. The net income per share amounts are the same for our Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class A common stock”) and Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class B common stock”), because the holders of each class are legally entitled to equal per share distributions whether through dividends or in liquidation. Use of estimates: In preparing these financial statements, management had to make estimates and assumptions that affected the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the balance sheet dates, and the reported revenues and expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015. Such estimates are based on historical experience and other assumptions that are considered appropriate in the circumstances. However, actual results could differ from those estimates. Reclassification: Certain prior year amounts presented in Other accrued expenses have been reclassified to Taxes payable on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet, which resulted in an increase to Taxes payable to conform with the fiscal 2016 presentation with no impact to current liabilities. Recent accounting pronouncements: In May 2014, the FASB and the International Accounting Standards Board updated the accounting guidance related to revenue recognition. The updated accounting guidance provides a single, contract-based revenue recognition model to help improve financial reporting by providing clearer guidance on when an entity should recognize revenue, and by reducing the number of standards to which an entity has to refer. In July 2015, the FASB voted to defer the effective date by one year to December 15, 2017 for annual reporting periods beginning after that date. The updated accounting guidance provides companies with alternative methods of adoption. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-08- Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principle versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net) . The amendments in this update do not change the core principle of the guidance in Topic 606; they clarify the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations. In April 2016, the FASB issued further guidance related to revenue recognition with ASU 2016-10 — Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing (“Update 2016-10”). The amendments in Update 2016-10 do not change the core principle of the guidance in Topic 606, rather it clarifies identifying performance obligations and licensing implementation. In May 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Updated (“ASU”) 2016-12 — Revenue from contracts with Customers (Topic 605) Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients. Similar to ASU 2016-08 and ASU 2016-10, the amendments in ASU 2016-12 do not change the core principle of the guidance in Topic 606, rather if clarifies issues around assessing collectability and issues concerning implementation at transition to the ASU. The effective date for implementation remains unchanged and will impact the first interim period of our 2018 fiscal year. We are currently in the process of determining the impact that the updated accounting guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements and our method of adoption. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09 — Compensation — Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting as part of its simplification initiative. The areas for simplification in this update involve several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. The amendments in this update are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods. We are currently in the process of determining the impact that the updated accounting guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements. The FASB issued ASU 2016-02 — Leases (Topic 842) in February 2016 . ASU 2016-02 amends the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, creating Topic 842, Leases. Topic 842 affects any entity that enters into a lease, with specified scope exemptions, and supersedes Topic 840, Leases. The core principle of Topic 842 is that a lessee should recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from leases, including operating leases. The recognition, measurement and presentation of expenses and cash flows from a lease by a lessee have not changed significantly from previous GAAP. The principle difference from previous guidance is that the assets and liabilities arising from an operating lease should be recognized in the statement of financial position. The guidance will be effective for the first interim period of our 2019 fiscal year. Early application of the amendments in this update is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of the new standard.

Income taxes For the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, our income tax expense has been computed utilizing the estimated annual effective rates of 35.8% and 40.1%, respectively. The decrease in the estimated annual effective tax rate is primarily due to the apportionment of income before income taxes for state income tax purposes in 2016 due to the expansion of our business, which resulted in a reduced state tax rate. The difference between the annual effective rate in both periods and the statutory Federal income tax rate of 35% is primarily due to state and foreign income and foreign withholding taxes offset by foreign tax credits. Income tax expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 was $2.8 million and $4.3 million, respectively. Income tax expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 was $2.3 million and $4.0 million, respectively.

Long-term debt
Long-term debt	Note 5. Long-term debt Long-term debt at June 30, 2016 and 2015 consists of the following (amounts in thousands) : June 30, 2016 December 31, 2015 Senior Notes due July 2020 $ $ Less: Current portion — ) $ $ On July 30, 2014, certain of our subsidiaries (the “Borrowers”) entered into an amended credit agreement providing for a $225.0 million senior secured term loan B facility (the “Term Loan Facility”), which matures on July 30, 2020. Pricing on the Term Loan Facility was set at LIBOR plus 400 basis points (subject to a LIBOR floor of 1.00%, resulting in an effective interest rate of 5.00% in the current quarter and 0.5% of original issue discount (“OID”)). The Term Loan Facility also provides an uncommitted accordion option (the “Incremental Facility”) allowing for additional borrowings under the Term Loan Facility up to an aggregate principal amount equal to (i) $40.0 million plus (ii) an additional amount of up to 4.0x first lien net leverage. The obligations under the Term Loan Facility are guaranteed by HMTV, LLC, our direct wholly-owned subsidiary, and all of our existing and future subsidiaries (subject to certain exceptions in the case of immaterial subsidiaries). Additionally, the Term Loan Facility provides for an uncommitted incremental revolving loan option in an aggregate principal amount of up to $20.0 million, which shall be secured on a pari passu basis by the collateral securing the Term Loan Facility. The Term Loan Facility is secured by a first-priority perfected security interest in substantially all of our assets. The OID of $1.5 million, net of accumulated amortization of $0.9 million at June 30, 2016, was recorded as a reduction to the principal amount of the Term Loan Facility outstanding and will be amortized as a component of interest expense over the term of the Term Loan Facility. We recorded $2.0 million of deferred financing costs associated with the Term Loan Facility, net of accumulated amortization of $1.3 million at June 30, 2016, which will be amortized utilizing the effective interest rate method over the remaining term of the Term Loan Facility. The principal payments on the Term Loan Facility are payable on quarterly due dates, which commenced on September 30, 2014, with a final installment due on July 30, 2020. In addition, pursuant to the terms of the Term Loan Facility, within 90 days after the end of each fiscal year (commencing with the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015), the Borrowers are required to make a prepayment of the loan principal in an amount equal to 50% of the excess cash flow of the most recently completed fiscal year. Excess cash flow is generally defined as net income plus depreciation and amortization expense, less mandatory prepayments of the term loan, interest charges, income taxes and capital expenditures, and adjusted for the change in working capital. The percentage of the excess cash flow used to determine the amount of the prepayment of the loan declines from 50% to 25%, and again to 0% at lower leverage ratios. Pursuant to the terms of our Term Loan Facility, our net leverage ratio was 3.0x at December 31, 2015, resulting in an excess cash flow percentage of 25% being used to determine the principal payment of $8.3 million in March 2016 allocated in direct order of maturity. As a result, we will not be required to make scheduled quarterly principal payments for several quarters. The carrying value of the long-term debt approximates fair value at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 and was derived from quoted market prices by independent dealers (Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy under ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures ). The following are the maturities of our long-term debt as of June 30, 2016 ( amounts in thousands ): Year Ending December 31, 2016 $ — 2017 — 2018 — 2019 2020 $

Stockholders' equity	Note 6. Stockholders’ equity Common stock repurchases On June 8, 2016, the Company completed a privately negotiated stock repurchase of 2,800,000 shares of Class A common stock at a price of $10.50 per share for $29.4mm. On March 16, 2016, the Company completed a repurchase of 100,000 shares of Class A common stock at a price of $13.35 per share for $1.3mm. The repurchased shares were placed into treasury to be used for general corporate purposes. For more information, see Part II Item 2, “Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds”, included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report. Event-based Class A common stock awards Pursuant to the Equity Restructuring and Warrant Purchase Agreement, dated as of January 22, 2013, by and among Azteca Acquisition Holdings, LLC and the Company and the other parties identified therein, certain initial stockholders of Azteca Acquisition Corporation (which merged with the Company in connection with its initial public offering), agreed to subject 378,788 shares of Class A common stock to certain forfeiture provisions if the market price of shares of Hemisphere Class A common stock did not equal or exceed $15.00 per share for any 20 trading days within at least one 30-trading day period within 36 months of April 4, 2013. Effective the close of trading on April 4, 2016, such holders forfeited 378,788 shares of Class A common stock back to the Company as a result. Equity incentive plans Effective May 16, 2016, the stockholders of all classes of capital stock of the Company approved at the annuals stockholder meeting the Hemisphere Media Group, Inc. Amended and Restated 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2013 Equity Incentive Plan”) to increase the number of shares of Class A common stock that may be delivered under the 2013 Equity Incentive Plan by 3,225,920 shares, provide limits on non-employee director awards and additional provisions as set forth in plan (a copy of which is provided in the Company’s 2016 annual proxy statement). An aggregate of 7.2 million shares of our Class A common stock were authorized for issuance under the terms of the Hemisphere Media Group, Inc. 2013 Equity Incentive Plan. At June 30, 2016, 4.4 million shares remained available for issuance of stock options or other stock-based awards under our 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (including shares of restricted Class A common stock surrendered to the Company in payment of taxes required to be withheld in respect of vested shares of restricted Class A common stock, which are available for re-issuance). The expiration date of the 2013 Equity Incentive Plan, on and after which date no awards may be granted, is April 4, 2023. The Company’s board of directors, or a committee thereof, administers the 2013 Equity Incentive Plan and has the sole and plenary authority to, among other things: (i) designate participants; (ii) determine the type, size, and terms and conditions of awards to be granted; and (iii) determine the method by which an award may be settled, exercised, canceled, forfeited or suspended. The Company’s time-based restricted stock awards and option awards generally vest in three equal annual installments beginning on the first anniversary of the grant date, subject to the grantee’s continued employment or service with the Company. The Company’s event-based restricted stock awards and option awards generally vest upon the Company’s Class A common stock attaining a $15.00 closing price per share, as quoted on the NASDAQ Global Market, on at least 10 trading days, subject to the grantee’s continued employment or service with the Company. Stock-based compensation Stock-based compensation expense related to stock options and restricted stock was $0.6 million and $1.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, and $2.0 million and $2.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. At June 30, 2016, there was $1.5 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested stock options, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.1 years. At June 30, 2016, there was $1.1 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested restricted stock, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.1 years. Stock options The fair value of stock options granted is estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model for time-based options and the Monte Carlo simulation model for event-based options. The expected term of options granted is derived using the simplified method under ASC 718-10-S99-1/SEC Topic 14.D for “plain vanilla” options and the Monte Carlo simulation for event-based options. Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s competitors given its lack of trading history. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield for a period consistent with the expected term of the option in effect at the time of the grant. The Company has estimated forfeitures of 1.5%, as the awards are to management for which the Company expects lower turnover, and has assumed no dividend yield, as dividends have never been paid to stock or option holders and will not be paid for the foreseeable future. Black-Scholes Option Valuation Assumptions Six Months Ended June 30, 2016 2015 Risk-free interest rate % 1.76%-2.12 % Dividend yield — — Volatility % 25.8%-29.5 % Weighted-average expected term (years) The following table summarizes stock option activity for the six months ended June 30, 2016 (shares and intrinsic value in thousands) : Number of shares Weighted-average exercise price Weighted-average remaining contractual term Aggregate intrinsic value Outstanding at December 31, 2015 $ $ Granted — — Exercised ) — — Forfeited — — — — Expired — — — — Outstanding at June 30, 2016 $ $ Vested at June 30, 2016 $ $ Exercisable at June 30, 2016 $ $ The weighted average grant date fair value of options granted for the six months ended June 30, 2016 was $3.96. At June 30, 2016, 0.3 million options granted are unvested, event-based options. Restricted stock Certain employees and directors have been awarded restricted stock under the 2013 Equity Incentive Plan. The time-based restricted stock grants vest primarily over a period of three years. The fair value and expected term of event-based restricted stock grants is estimated at the grant date using the Monte Carlo simulation model. The following table summarizes restricted share activity for the six months ended June 30, 2016 ( shares in thousands ): Number of shares Weighted-average grant date fair value Outstanding at December 31, 2015 $ Granted Vested ) Forfeited — — Outstanding at June 30, 2016 $ At June 30, 2016, 0.2 million shares of restricted stock issued were unvested, event-based shares. Warrants At June 30, 2016, 12.3 million warrants, exercisable into 6.1 million shares of our Class A common stock, were issued and outstanding. Each warrant entitles the holder to purchase one-half of one share of our Class A common stock at a price of $6.00 per half share. Warrants may be exercised only through the date of expiration and are only exercisable for a whole number of shares of common stock (i.e. only an even number of warrants may be exercised at any given time by a registered holder). As a result, a holder must exercise a least two warrants at an effective exercise price of $12.00 per share. At the option of the Company, 7.6 million warrants may be called for redemption, provided that the last sale price of our Class A common stock reported has been at least $18.00 per share on each of twenty trading days within the thirty-day period ending on the third business day prior to the date on which notice of redemption is given. The warrants expire on April 4, 2018. During the six months ended June 30, 2016, we repurchased 1.0 million warrants for $1.0 million, and we issued 35,000 shares of Class A Common Stock upon the exercise of 70,000 warrants for total exercise proceeds of $0.4 million.

Basis of presentation:	Basis of presentation: The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for Hemisphere and its subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations, although we believe that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading. In our opinion, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair statement have been included. Our financial condition as of, and operating results, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the financial condition or results that may be expected for any future interim period or for the year ending December 31, 2016. These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.
Net earnings per common share:	Net earnings per common share: Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) are computed by dividing income attributable to common stockholders by the number of weighted-average outstanding shares of common stock. Diluted EPS reflects the effect of the assumed exercise of stock options and vesting of restricted shares only in the periods in which such effect would have been dilutive. The following table sets forth the computation of the common shares outstanding used in determining basic and diluted EPS ( amounts in thousands, except per share amounts): Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, 2016 2015 2016 2015 Numerator for earnings per common share calculation: Net income $ $ $ $ Denominator for earnings per common share calculation: Weighted-average common shares, basic Effect of dilutive securities Stock options, restricted stock and warrants Weighted-average common shares, diluted EPS Basic $ $ $ $ Diluted $ $ $ $ We apply the treasury stock method to measure the dilutive effect of our outstanding stock options and restricted stock awards and include the respective common share equivalents in the denominator of our diluted income per common share calculation. Potentially dilutive securities representing 1.1 million shares of common stock for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively, were excluded from the computation of diluted income per common share for this period because their effect would have been anti-dilutive. The net income per share amounts are the same for our Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class A common stock”) and Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class B common stock”), because the holders of each class are legally entitled to equal per share distributions whether through dividends or in liquidation.
Use of estimates:	Use of estimates: In preparing these financial statements, management had to make estimates and assumptions that affected the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the balance sheet dates, and the reported revenues and expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015. Such estimates are based on historical experience and other assumptions that are considered appropriate in the circumstances. However, actual results could differ from those estimates.
Reclassification:	Reclassification: Certain prior year amounts presented in Other accrued expenses have been reclassified to Taxes payable on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet, which resulted in an increase to Taxes payable to conform with the fiscal 2016 presentation with no impact to current liabilities.
Recent accounting pronouncements:	Recent accounting pronouncements: In May 2014, the FASB and the International Accounting Standards Board updated the accounting guidance related to revenue recognition. The updated accounting guidance provides a single, contract-based revenue recognition model to help improve financial reporting by providing clearer guidance on when an entity should recognize revenue, and by reducing the number of standards to which an entity has to refer. In July 2015, the FASB voted to defer the effective date by one year to December 15, 2017 for annual reporting periods beginning after that date. The updated accounting guidance provides companies with alternative methods of adoption. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-08- Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principle versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net) . The amendments in this update do not change the core principle of the guidance in Topic 606; they clarify the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations. In April 2016, the FASB issued further guidance related to revenue recognition with ASU 2016-10 — Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing (“Update 2016-10”). The amendments in Update 2016-10 do not change the core principle of the guidance in Topic 606, rather it clarifies identifying performance obligations and licensing implementation. In May 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Updated (“ASU”) 2016-12 — Revenue from contracts with Customers (Topic 605) Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients. Similar to ASU 2016-08 and ASU 2016-10, the amendments in ASU 2016-12 do not change the core principle of the guidance in Topic 606, rather if clarifies issues around assessing collectability and issues concerning implementation at transition to the ASU. The effective date for implementation remains unchanged and will impact the first interim period of our 2018 fiscal year. We are currently in the process of determining the impact that the updated accounting guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements and our method of adoption. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09 — Compensation — Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting as part of its simplification initiative. The areas for simplification in this update involve several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. The amendments in this update are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods. We are currently in the process of determining the impact that the updated accounting guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements. The FASB issued ASU 2016-02 — Leases (Topic 842) in February 2016 . ASU 2016-02 amends the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, creating Topic 842, Leases. Topic 842 affects any entity that enters into a lease, with specified scope exemptions, and supersedes Topic 840, Leases. The core principle of Topic 842 is that a lessee should recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from leases, including operating leases. The recognition, measurement and presentation of expenses and cash flows from a lease by a lessee have not changed significantly from previous GAAP. The principle difference from previous guidance is that the assets and liabilities arising from an operating lease should be recognized in the statement of financial position. The guidance will be effective for the first interim period of our 2019 fiscal year. Early application of the amendments in this update is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of the new standard.
