OTHER EVENTS. As previously reported, on November 19, 1998, Citadel Broadcasting Company ("CBC"), a subsidiary of Citadel Communications Corporation (the "Company"), sold an aggregate of $115.0 million in principal amount of its 9- 1/4% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2008 (the "Notes") in a private placement transaction. The aggregate sale price was $115.0 million, and the aggregate net proceeds to CBC were approximately $111.0 million. CBC repaid all amounts outstanding under its revolving credit facility, and it intends to use the remaining net proceeds to finance acquisitions and for general corporate purposes. As previously announced, on November 23, 1998, CBC entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Wicks Broadcast Group Limited Partnership and certain related entities (collectively, "Wicks") to acquire a total of ten FM and six AM radio stations in Charleston, South Carolina, Binghamton, New York and Muncie and Kokomo, Indiana, each a market where CBC does not presently own any other radio stations, for an aggregate purchase price of $77.0 million in cash. CBC has delivered an irrevocable letter of credit in favor of Wicks in the amount of $5.0 million to secure certain of CBC's obligations under the asset purchase agreement. The asset purchase agreement contains customary representations and warranties of the parties, and consummation of the transaction is subject to certain conditions including (i) the receipt of the Federal Communications Commission's consent to the transfer of the station licenses to CBC or its subsidiary, Citadel License, Inc., (ii) the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting periods under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, and (iii) the receipt of consents to the assignment to CBC of certain material contracts relating to the stations.

The Broadcast Group consists of the thirteen radio stations (8 FMs and 5 AMs) serving the Charleston, SC and Binghamton, NY markets as of December 31, 1997. In January 1998, the Broadcast Group acquired an additional three stations (2 FMs and 1 AM). See note 3. (2) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Cash and Cash Equivalents For the purposes of the statement of cash flows, cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. The fair market value of such investments approximates cost. Property and Equipment Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation expense is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from three to twenty years. Intangible Assets and Recovery of Long-Lived Assets Intangible assets consist principally of network affiliation agreements, broadcasting licenses, covenants not to compete and the excess of costs over the fair value of net assets acquired. Amortization expense is computed on a straight-line basis over the estimated lives of the assets which range from 2-15 years. The Partnership's policy is to review its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. The Partnership recognizes an impairment loss when the sum of the expected future undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset. The measurement of the impairment losses to be recognized is based upon the difference between the fair value and the carrying amount of the assets. Income Taxes The Broadcast Group is generally not an entity subject to income taxes. The Broadcast Group's income or loss is passed through to the Partnership and the related tax attributes are deemed to be distributed to, and to be reportable by, the partners of the Partnership on their respective income tax returns. However, the Broadcast Group contains the Partnership's subsidiary, Regional Group, Inc. Regional Group, Inc. and its subsidiaries are Subchapter C corporations, and are, therefore, responsible for the income taxes attributable to their profit and losses. Income taxes for Regional Group, Inc. and its subsidiaries are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating losses and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized into income in the period that includes the enactment date. The income tax benefit is a result of the amortization of the deferred tax liability. Revenues Broadcasting revenues are derived principally from the sale of program time and spot announcements to local, regional, and national advertisers. Advertising revenue is recognized in the period during which the program time and spot announcements are broadcast. -7- 9 WICKS RADIO GROUP (A DIVISION OF WICKS BROADCAST GROUP LIMITED PARTNERSHIP) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- CONTINUED Barter Transactions Barter transactions are recorded at the estimated fair values of the products and services received. Barter revenues are recognized when commercials are broadcast. The assets or services received in exchange for broadcast time are recorded when received or used. Corporate Overhead A number of overhead services are maintained centrally by the Partnership and are allocated to its business units based on the benefits provided. These services include most of the costs associated with the human resources function and certain general and administrative costs of the corporate function such as accounting and finance, treasury and legal. In addition, the Partnership provides for the working capital needs of the Broadcast Group. There is no borrowing arrangement between the Partnership and the Broadcast Group. Accordingly, no interest expense is recorded in the accompanying financial statements. However, all of the assets of the Broadcast Group have been pledged as collateral on the Partnership's credit facility. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Concentration of Credit Risk A significant portion of the Broadcast's Group accounts receivable are due from advertising agencies. Unaudited Interim Financial Information The unaudited balance sheet, statements of operations and changes in division equity, and cash flows as of September 30, 1998 and for the nine months then ended have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any future period including the year ending December 31, 1998. (3) ACQUISITION OF BROADCAST RADIO STATIONS In December 1997, the Partnership acquired certain broadcasting assets of WBUB-FM (St. George, South Carolina) and WXTC-AM (Charleston, South Carolina) and upgraded the frequency of one of its existing FM stations in the Charleston, South Carolina, market through a swap of broadcast license rights. In January 1998, the Partnership acquired certain broadcasting assets of WMDH-FM and WMDH-AM (Muncie, Indiana) and WWKI-FM (Kokomo, Indiana). -8- 10 WICKS RADIO GROUP (A DIVISION OF WICKS BROADCAST GROUP LIMITED PARTNERSHIP) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- CONTINUED Total consideration paid for these acquisitions including costs of acquisitions was approximately $8,673,000 in 1997 and $17,764,000 (unaudited) in 1998. These acquisitions have been accounted for under the purchase method of accounting and, accordingly, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed have been recorded at their estimated fair value as of the acquisition date, as determined by an independent appraiser. The allocation of the purchase price is summarized as follows: (UNAUDITED) 1997 1998 ---------- ----------- Land........................................................ $ 68,000 $ 107,000 Property and equipment...................................... 2,260,000 2,194,000 Intangible assets........................................... 6,345,000 15,463,000 ---------- ----------- Total consideration paid.................................... $8,673,000 $17,764,000 ========== =========== (4) PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT A summary of property and equipment is as follows: (UNAUDITED) DECEMBER 31, September 30, 1997 1998 ------------ ------------- Land........................................................ $ 168,615 $ 275,318 Building and improvements................................... 267,370 989,413 Office equipment, furniture, and fixtures................... 430,259 581,724 Broadcast and production equipment.......................... 4,980,885 6,432,008 Vehicles.................................................... 81,137 94,660 ----------- ----------- 5,928,266 8,373,123 Less accumulated depreciation...............................

(3,433,259) (5,701,147) ----------- ----------- $25,047,120 $38,242,931 =========== =========== (6) DEFERRED INCOME TAXES The Partnership had established a deferred tax liability arising from the acquisition of Regional Group, Inc. of $600,000. This liability was attributable to the difference between the book basis of Regional Group, Inc. and the carryover basis of the former shareholders at the acquisition date. As the liability was principally attributable to the book/tax difference in long-term tangible and intangible assets, the deferred tax liability was classified as a long-term liability. The Broadcast Group recognized an income tax benefit of $40,000 in 1997 and $30,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 as a result of amortization of the deferred tax liability. -9- 11 WICKS RADIO GROUP (A DIVISION OF WICKS BROADCAST GROUP LIMITED PARTNERSHIP) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- CONTINUED (7) LEASES The Broadcast Group leases certain property and equipment under noncancelable operating lease agreements. Rental expense was approximately $261,000 for the year ended December 31, 1997. Future minimum lease payments under noncancelable operating leases are approximately: YEAR ENDING DECEMBER 31: - ------------------------ 1998.................................................... $ 308,000 1999.................................................... 239,000 2000.................................................... 188,000 2001.................................................... 153,000 2002.................................................... 153,000 Thereafter.............................................. 675,000 ---------- $1,716,000 ========== (8) SUBSEQUENT EVENT In November 1998, the Partnership entered into an agreement with Citadel Broadcasting Company ("Citadel") to sell the Wicks Radio Group to Citadel for approximately $77 million, subject to approval from the Federal Communications Commission. -10- 12 PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION The following unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect the results of operations and balance sheet of Citadel Communications Corporation and its subsidiaries (the "Company") after giving effect to (1) all radio station acquisitions and dispositions completed after January 1, 1997, (2) the July 1997 offering of $101.0 million principal amount of the Company's 10-1/4% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2007, the July 1997 offering of 1.0 million shares of the Company's 13-1/4% Exchangeable Preferred Stock and the use of the net proceeds from such offerings (the "1997 Offerings"), (3) the repayment of outstanding borrowings under the Company's credit facility with the proceeds from Citadel Communications Corporation's July 1998 initial public offering, (4) the November 1998 offering of $115.0 million principal amount of the Company's 9-1/4% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2008 and the use of the net proceeds from such offering (the "Original Offering") and (5) the pending acquisitions by the Company of radio stations and related assets in Baton Rouge and Lafayette, Louisiana, Saginaw/Bay City, Michigan, Harrisburg/Carlisle, Pennsylvania, Charleston, South Carolina, Binghamton, New York and Muncie and Kokomo, Indiana (the "Pending Acquisitions"). The transactions in clauses (1) through (4) in the preceding sentence are collectively referred to as the "Completed Transactions". The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements are based on the historical consolidated financial statements of the Company and the financial statements of those entities acquired, or from which assets were acquired, in connection with the Completed Transactions, and should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto of (A)(i) the Company, (ii) Tele-Media Broadcasting Company and its Partnership Interests, (iii) Deschutes River Broadcasting, Inc., (iv) Snider Corporation, (v) Snider Broadcasting Corporation and Subsidiary and CDB Broadcasting Corporation, (vi) Maranatha Broadcasting Company, Inc.'s, Radio Broadcasting Division and (vii) Pacific Northwest Broadcasting Corporation and Affiliates which are included in the Company's Registration Statement on Form S-1 (file no. 333-51011); (B) the Company which are included in the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 1998; and (C) the Wicks Radio Group (a division of the Wicks Broadcast Group Limited Partnership) which are included elsewhere in this report.

The interest rate applied to borrowings under, and repayments of, the Company's credit facility in the pro forma consolidated statements of operations was 8.4375%, which represents the interest rate in effect under the credit facility as of January 1, 1997. For pro forma purposes, the Company's consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 1998 has been adjusted to give effect to the October 1998 sale of four FM radio stations and one AM radio station in Quincy, Illinois (the "Quincy Sale"), the November 1998 purchase of one AM radio station and sale of one AM radio station in Little Rock, Arkansas, the Original Offering and the Pending Acquisitions as if each had occurred on September 30, 1998. -11- 13 The unaudited pro forma information is presented for illustrative purposes only and is not indicative of the operating results or financial position that would have occurred if the Completed Transactions and the Pending Acquisitions had been consummated on the dates indicated, not is it indicative of future operating results or financial position if the aforementioned transactions are completed.

Depreciation and amortization for such acquisitions are based upon preliminary allocations of the purchase price to property and equipment and intangible assets which will be amortized over periods of 1-25 years. Actual depreciation and amortization may differ depending on the final allocation of the purchase price; however, management does not believe these differences will be material. Prior to the acquisition dates, the Company operated many of the acquired stations under a JSA or LMA. The Company receives fees for such services. Includes net revenue and station operating expenses for stations operated under JSAs to reflect ownership of the stations as of January 1, 1997. Net revenue and station expenses for stations operated under LMAs are included in the Company's historical consolidated financial statements. For those stations operated under JSAs or LMAs and subsequently acquired, associated fees and redundant expenses were eliminated and estimated occupancy costs were included to adjust the results of operations to reflect ownership of the stations as of January 1, 1997.
