Distribution Restrictions	7. Distribution Restrictions In the filing of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2016, which was originally filed with the SEC on May 5, 2016, we improperly included disclosures under SEC Regulation S-X Rule 3-10, Financial Statements of Guarantors and Issuers of Guaranteed Securities Registered or Being Registered. The Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Lamar Media, is the registrar and issuer of all securities. The Company has no requirement for disclosure under Regulation S-X Rule 3-10 and thus such disclosure has been removed. This revision was determined to be immaterial to the financial statements previously presented. Lamar Media’s ability to make distributions to Lamar Advertising is restricted under both the terms of the indentures relating to Lamar Media’s outstanding notes and by the terms of its senior credit facility. As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, Lamar Media was permitted under the terms of its outstanding senior subordinated and senior notes to make transfers to Lamar Advertising in the form of cash dividends, loans or advances in amounts up to $2,506,186 and $2,487,196, respectively. As of March 31, 2016, transfers to Lamar Advertising are permitted under Lamar Media’s senior credit facility and as defined therein, unless, after giving effect to such distributions, (i) the total debt ratio is equal to or greater than 6.0 to 1 or (ii) the senior debt ratio is equal to or greater than 3.5 to 1. As of March 31, 2016, the total debt ratio was less than 6.0 to 1 and Lamar Media’s senior debt ratio was less than 3.5 to 1; therefore, dividends or distributions to Lamar Advertising were not subject to any additional restrictions under the senior credit facility. In addition, as of March 31, 2016 the senior credit facility allows Lamar Media to conduct its affairs in a manner that would allow Lamar Advertising to qualify and remain qualified for taxation as a REIT, including by allowing Lamar Media to make distributions to Lamar Advertising required for Lamar Advertising to qualify and remain qualified for taxation as a REIT, subject to certain restrictions.

Senior Credit Facility On January 7, 2016, Lamar Media entered into a new incremental Term A-1 loan of $300,000 to partially fund the purchase of certain Clear Channel Outdoor Holdings, Inc. assets. The Term A-1 loan was repaid in full on January 28, 2016 by using proceeds received from the issuance of the 5 3/4% Notes. For the period ended March 31, 2016, the Company incurred a loss of $3,142 related to the repayment of the Term A-1 loan. On February 3, 2014, Lamar Media entered into a Second Restatement Agreement (the “Second Restatement Agreement”) with the Company, certain of Lamar Media’s subsidiaries as Guarantors, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent and the Lenders named therein, under which the parties agreed to amend and restate Lamar Media’s existing senior credit facility on the terms set forth in the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement attached as Exhibit A to the Second Restatement Agreement (such Second and Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, as subsequently amended, together with the Second Restatement Agreement being herein referred to as the “senior credit facility”). Under the Second Restatement Agreement, the senior credit facility consisted of a $400,000 revolving credit facility and a $500,000 incremental facility. Lamar Media is the borrower under the senior credit facility. We may also from time to time designate wholly owned subsidiaries as subsidiary borrowers under the incremental loan facility. Incremental loans may be in the form of additional term loan tranches or increases in the revolving credit facility. Our lenders have no obligation to make additional loans to us, or any designated subsidiary borrower, under the incremental facility, but may enter into such commitments in their sole discretion. On April 18, 2014, Lamar Media entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “First Amendment”) under which the parties agreed to amend Lamar Media’s existing senior credit agreement on the terms set forth therein. The First Amendment created a new $300,000 Term A Loan facility (the “Term A Loans”) and made certain other amendments. Lamar Media borrowed $300,000 in Term A Loans on April 18, 2014. The net loan proceeds of this borrowing, together with borrowings under the revolving portion of the senior credit facility and cash on hand, were used to fund the redemption and retirement of all $400,000 in outstanding principal amount of Lamar Media’s 7 7/8% Notes due 2018 on April 21, 2014. On March 4, 2016, Lamar Media entered into Amendment No. 2 to the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Second Amendment”) under which the parties agreed to amend Lamar Media’s existing senior credit agreement on the terms set forth therein. Among certain other amendments, the Second Amendment eliminated the $500,000 cap on incremental loans with the result that Lamar Media may borrow incremental term and revolving loans without monetary limits, so long as Lamar Advertising’s Senior Debt Ratio does not exceed 3.5 to 1.0. The Term A Loans began amortizing on June 30, 2014 in quarterly installments on each September 30, December 31, March 31, and June 30 thereafter, as follows: Principal Payment Date Principal Amount June 30, 2016- March 31, 2017 $ 5,625 June 30, 2017-December 31, 2018 $ 11,250 Term A Loan Maturity Date $ 168,750 The Term A Loans bear interest at rates based on the Adjusted LIBO Rate (“Eurodollar loans”) or the Adjusted Base Rate (“Base Rate loans”), at Lamar Media’s option. Eurodollar loans bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Adjusted LIBO Rate plus 2.0%; (or the Adjusted LIBO Rate plus 1.75% at any time the Total Debt Ratio is less than or equal to 3.00 to 1). Base Rate Loans bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Adjusted Base Rate plus 1.00% (or the Adjusted Base Rate plus 0.75% at any time the Total Debt Ratio is less than or equal to 3.00 to 1). The revolving credit facility bears interest at rates based on the Adjusted LIBO Rate (“Eurodollar loans”) or the Adjusted Base Rate (“Base Rate loans”), at Lamar Media’s option. Eurodollar loans bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Adjusted LIBO Rate plus 2.25% (or the Adjusted LIBO Rate plus 2.00% at any time the Total Debt Ratio is less than or equal to 4.25 to 1; or the Adjusted LIBO Rate plus 1.75% at any time the Total Debt Ratio is less than or equal to 3.00 to 1). Base Rate Loans bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Adjusted Base Rate plus 1.25% (or the Adjusted Base Rate plus 1.0% at any time the total debt ratio is less than or equal to 4.25 to 1, or the Adjusted Base Rate plus 0.75% at any time the Total Debt Ratio is less than or equal to 3.00 to 1). The guarantees, covenants, events of default and other terms of the senior credit facility apply to the Term A Loans and revolving credit facility. As of March 31, 2016, there was $255,000 outstanding under the revolving credit facility. Availability under the revolving facility is reduced by the amount of any letters of credit outstanding. Lamar Media had $8,919 in letters of credit outstanding as of March 31, 2016 resulting in $136,081 of availability under its revolving facility. Revolving credit loans may be requested under the revolving credit facility at any time prior to its maturity on February 2, 2019, and bear interest, at Lamar Media’s option, at the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the Adjusted Base Rate plus applicable margins, such margins are set at an initial rate with the possibility of a step down based on Lamar Media’s ratio of debt to trailing four quarters EBITDA, as defined in the senior credit facility. The terms of Lamar Media’s senior credit facility and the indentures relating to Lamar Media’s outstanding notes restrict, among other things, the ability of Lamar Advertising and Lamar Media to: • dispose of assets; • incur or repay debt; • create liens; • make investments; and • pay dividends. The senior credit facility contains provisions that allow Lamar Media to conduct its affairs in a manner that allows Lamar Advertising to qualify and remain qualified as a REIT, including by allowing Lamar Media to make distributions to Lamar Advertising required for the Company to qualify and remain qualified for taxation as a REIT, subject to certain restrictions. Lamar Media’s ability to make distributions to Lamar Advertising is also restricted under the terms of these agreements. Under Lamar Media’s senior credit facility the Company must maintain a specified senior debt ratio at all times and in addition, must satisfy a total debt ratio in order to incur debt, make distributions or make certain investments. Lamar Advertising and Lamar Media were in compliance with all of the terms of their indentures and the senior credit facility provisions during the periods presented.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value of Financial Instruments	10. Fair Value of Financial Instruments At March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company’s financial instruments included cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities, accounts receivable, investments, accounts payable and borrowings. The fair values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and short-term borrowings and current portion of long-term debt approximated carrying values because of the short-term nature of these instruments. Investments are reported at fair values. Fair values for investments held at cost are not readily available, but are estimated to approximate fair value. The estimated fair value of the Company’s long term debt (including current maturities) was $2,554,377 which exceeded the carrying amount of $2,470,676 as of March 31, 2016. The majority of the fair value is determined using observed market prices of publicly traded debt (level 1 in the fair value hierarchy) and the remaining is valued based on quoted prices for similar debt (level 2 in the fair value hierarchy).
