ITEM 7. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND EXHIBITS.
 
     (B) PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION.
 
     The following unaudited pro forma financial information (the "Pro Forma
Financial Information") is based on the audited historical financial statements
of the Company and its predecessor (Commodore Media, Inc.), Osborn
Communications, Inc. ("Osborn"), GulfStar Communications, Inc. ("GulfStar"),
Benchmark Communications Radio Limited Partnership ("Benchmark"), Madison Radio
Group ("Madison"), Community Pacific Broadcasting Company L.P. ("Community
Pacific"), Patterson Broadcasting, Inc. and subsidiaries ("Patterson"), Ameron
Broadcasting, Inc. ("Ameron"), Knight Quality Stations ("Knight Quality"), Quass
Broadcasting Company ("Quass") and Mountain Lakes Broadcasting, L.L.C.
("Mountain Lakes") and, in each case, their related notes. Certain capitalized
terms used in this Current Report are defined herein under the caption "Glossary
of Certain Terms."
 
     The pro forma statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 1996,
and for the three months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996 have been prepared to
illustrate the effects of: (i) the Commodore Acquisition; (ii) the Completed
Transactions, including the Financing; and (iii) the Pending Transactions and
the anticipated financing thereof, as if each had occurred on January 1, 1996.
The pro forma balance sheet as of March 31, 1997, has been prepared as if any
such transaction not yet consummated on that date had occurred on that date. The
Pro Forma Financial Information and accompanying notes should be read in
conjunction with the financial statements and other financial information
pertaining to the Company, Commodore, Osborn, GulfStar, Benchmark, Madison,
Community Pacific, Patterson, Ameron, Knight Quality, Quass and Mountain Lakes.
 
     The unaudited pro forma adjustments are based upon available information
and certain assumptions that the Company believes are reasonable. The Company
anticipates that it will fund the Pending Acquisitions with indebtedness, rather
than capital stock, to the fullest extent then permitted under the debt
incurrence covenants contained, or to be contained, in (i) the Certificate of
Designation, (ii) the Notes Indenture, (iii) the New Capstar Radio Indenture,
(iv) the indenture to which the Company will be a party if the Senior
Exchangeable Preferred Stock is exchanged for debentures of the Company pursuant
to the terms of the Certificate of Designation (the "Exchange Indenture"), (v)
the Existing Capstar Radio Indenture (the Existing Capstar Radio Indenture, the
Notes Indenture, the New Capstar Radio Indenture, and the Exchange Indenture,
the "Indentures"), and (vi) the Credit Facility. As a result, the Company
expects the actual amount of indebtedness incurred in connection with the
Pending Transactions to exceed the amount in the Pro Forma Financial
Information. The Pro Forma Financial Information is not necessarily indicative
of either future results of operations or the results that might have been
achieved if such transactions had been consummated on the indicated dates.
 
     All acquisitions, except for the GulfStar Transaction, given effect in the
Pro Forma Financial Information are accounted for using the purchase method of
accounting. The aggregate purchase price of each such transaction is allocated
to the tangible and intangible assets and liabilities acquired based upon their
respective fair values. The allocation of the aggregate purchase price reflected
in the Pro Forma Financial Information is preliminary for transactions closed or
to be closed after April 1, 1997. The final allocation of the purchase price is
contingent upon the receipt of final appraisals of the acquired assets and the
revision of other estimates; however, the allocation is not expected to differ
materially from the preliminary allocation. The GulfStar Transaction is
accounted for at historical cost, on a basis similar to a pooling of interests,
as the Company and GulfStar were under common control prior to the GulfStar
Transaction.
 
     For the purpose of the pro forma statement of operations for the year ended
December 31, 1996 and for the three months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, (i)
"Completed Transactions Combined" collectively refers to the historical results
of operations of the entities and stations acquired or sold in the Completed
Transactions, excluding the Commodore Acquisition, and (ii) "Pending
Transactions Combined" collectively refers to the results of operations of the
entities and stations to be acquired or sold in the Pending Transactions.

     For the purpose of the pro forma balance sheet as of March 31, 1997, (i)
"Completed Transactions Combined" collectively refers to the historical balance
sheets of the entities and stations acquired or sold in the Completed
Transactions, excluding the Commodore Acquisition and the Osborn Acquisition,
and (ii) "Pending Transactions Combined" collectively refers to the historical
balance sheets of the entities and stations to be acquired or sold in the
Pending Transactions.
 
     As used in the Pro Forma Financial Information, (i) "Company Combined"
presents unaudited pro forma financial data for the Company, including its
predecessor, Commodore, (ii) "Pro Forma for Completed Transactions and the
Financing" gives effect to the Completed Transactions and the financing thereof,
including the Financing and (iii) "Pro Forma" gives effect to each of the
foregoing transactions, the Pending Transactions, and the anticipated financing
thereof.

(1) Broadcast cash flow consists of operating income before depreciation,
    amortization, corporate expenses and other operating expenses. Although
    broadcast cash flow is not a measure of performance calculated in accordance
    with GAAP, management believes that it is useful to an investor in
    evaluating the Company because it is a measure widely used in the
    broadcasting industry to evaluate a radio company's operating performance.
    See "Glossary of Certain Terms."
 
(2) EBITDA consists of operating income before depreciation, amortization and
    other operating expenses. Although EBITDA is not a measure of performance
    calculated in accordance with GAAP, management believes that it is useful to
    an investor in evaluating the Company because it is a measure widely used in
    the broadcasting industry to evaluate a radio company's operating
    performance. See "Glossary of Certain Terms."

(3) The pro forma financial results exclude the effects of estimated cost
    savings resulting from the Completed Transactions and the Pending
    Acquisitions. On a pro forma basis, assuming the consummation of the
    aforementioned transactions, including related cost savings as if they had
    occurred on January 1, 1996, broadcast cash flow and EBITDA would have been
    $93.9 million and $85.0 million, respectively, for the twelve-month period
    ended March 31, 1997. The Company expects to realize approximately $11.8
    million of estimated cost savings resulting from the elimination of
    redundant operating expenses arising from such transactions, including
    elimination of certain management positions, the consolidation of facilities
    and new rates associated with revised vendor contracts and savings related
    to automation of certain station operations. In addition, the Company
    expects to realize approximately $5.7 million of cost savings, on a pro
    forma basis, resulting from the elimination of certain corporate overhead
    functions, net of increased costs associated with the implementation of the
    Company's corporate management structure. Corporate cost savings reflect the
    expected level of annual corporate expenditures arising from such
    transactions. The Company anticipates that corporate expenses will increase
    upon consummation of additional acquisitions. There can be no assurances
    that any operating or corporate cost savings will be achieved.
 
(4) For purposes of this calculation, "earnings" consist of income (loss) before
    income taxes and fixed charges, and "fixed charges" consist of interest,
    amortization of deferred financing costs and the component of rental expense
    believed by management to be representative of the interest factor thereon.
    Preferred stock dividends and accretion are included in fixed charges where
    appropriate.

      (1) For purposes of this calculation, "earnings" consist of income (loss)
          before income taxes and fixed charges, and "fixed charges" consist of
          interest, amortization of deferred financing costs and the component
          of rental expense believed by management to be representative of the
          interest factor thereon.
 
      (2) The column gives effect to the LMA fees related to the Community
          Pacific Acquisition.
 
      (3) The adjustment reflects the elimination of an extraordinary loss
          related to the extinguishment of the Company's former credit facility
          in connection with the Osborn Acquisition during the pro forma period.

(C)   The adjustment reflects (i) a change in depreciation and amortization
      resulting from conforming the estimated useful lives of the acquired
      stations and (ii) the additional depreciation and amortization expense
      resulting from the allocation of the purchase price of the acquired
      stations including an increase in property and equipment, FCC licenses,
      and intangible assets to their estimated fair market value and the
      recording of goodwill associated with the acquisitions. Goodwill and FCC
      licenses are being amortized over 40 years.
 
(D)   The adjustment reflects interest expense associated with (i) the Existing
      Capstar Radio Notes, (ii) the Notes, (iii) the New Capstar Radio Notes,
      (iv) the Credit Facility, and (v) the amortization of deferred financing
      fees associated with the Notes, the New Capstar Radio Notes and the Credit
      Facility, net of interest expense related to the existing indebtedness of
      the companies included within the Completed Transactions Combined and the
      Company. Deferred financing fees are amortized over the term of the
      related debt.

(U)   The adjustments reflect (i) the assumption of $2,391 in liabilities in
      connection with the Completed Transactions, (ii) the acquisition of
      GulfStar, which is accounted for at historical cost on a basis similar to
      a pooling of interests, and (iii) the elimination of the historical equity
      of the Completed Transactions, excluding the equity of GulfStar of
      $24,718, and the allocation of the purchase prices, net of the proceeds
      from the Osborn Ft. Myers Disposition, of the Completed Transactions to
      the assets acquired and liabilities assumed resulting in an adjustment to
      property and equipment and FCC licenses to their estimated fair market
      values and the recording of goodwill associated with the acquisitions as

(BB) As part of the Benchmark Acquisition, the Fund III Acquisition Sub entered
     into a senior credit agreement (the "Acquisition Sub Credit Agreement")
     with Bankers Trust Company to borrow up to $62,000, of which approximately
     $60,000 of the proceeds were loaned to Benchmark to enable Benchmark to
     consummate four separate acquisitions of radio station properties and for
     certain other purposes of Benchmark. The Company unconditionally guaranteed
     all of the Fund III Acquisition Sub's indebtedness under the Acquisition
     Sub Credit Agreement. Simultaneously with the Benchmark Acquisition, the
     Fund III Acquisition Sub was merged with a subsidiary of Capstar
     Broadcasting and the Acquisition Sub Credit Agreement was repaid (the
     "Repayment"). In connection with the Repayment, Capstar Broadcasting issued
     $750 of Class C Common Stock to HM Fund III in consideration of HM Fund
     III's agreement to purchase the obligations owing to Bankers Trust Company
     under the Acquisition Sub Credit Agreement and the Company recorded an
     extraordinary charge of $750.
 
      The related pro forma adjustments are as follows:

</TABLE>
 
(CC) The adjustment reflects the net proceeds from the Preferred Stock Offering
     of $94,750, net of fees and expenses of $5,250.
 
(DD) The adjustment reflects the elimination of the redeemable preferred stock
     of GulfStar which was redeemed in connection with the GulfStar Transaction.
     GulfStar recognized a loss on the Preferred Stock Redemption of $5,419
     which represents the difference between the carrying value and the
     liquidation preference of the preferred stock.
 
(EE) The adjustment reflects (i) the Hicks Muse GulfStar Equity Investment of
     $75,000 in connection with the GulfStar Transaction, (ii) the common equity

     BT Equity Investment of $11,100, and (iv) the fees and expenses incurred in
