PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
On February 2, 1996, the Registrant sold substantially all the assets of
radio stations WNTQ-FM/WNDR-AM, Syracuse, New York to Pilot Communications
L.L.C. for $12.5 million (the "Syracuse Disposition"). The net proceeds
were used to repay a portion of the Registrant's long-term debt.
On December 21, 1995, the Registrant entered into an option agreement with
Allbritton Communications Company ("Allbritton") for the sale of television
station WJSU-TV, Anniston, Alabama (the "Anniston Option"). Under the terms
of the option agreement, the Registrant received $10 million for an option
which gives Allbritton the right to purchase substantially all the assets
relating to the operations of the station for $2 million. In addition, the
Registrant will receive up to $7 million upon receipt of the the necessary
approvals to relocate the station's broadcast transmitter to maximize
broadcast coverage of the facility. The net proceeds were used to repay a
portion of the Registrant's long-term debt.
The Heritage Acquisition consists of the purchase from Heritage Broadcast
Group, Inc. ("Heritage") in June 1994 of substantially all the assets of
radio stations WWNC-AM/WKSF-FM, Asheville, North Carolina; WOLZ-FM, Ft.
Myers, Florida; and WFKS-FM, Daytona Beach/Palatka, Florida for $20.0 million
plus transaction costs and the purchase from Heritage in August 1994 of
substantially all the assets of radio stations WAAX-AM/WQEN-FM, Gadsden,
Alabama for $1.75 million plus transaction costs.
The Atlantic City Acquisition consists of the purchase from Radio WAYV, Inc.
in March 1994 of substantially all the assets of radio station WAYV-FM,
Atlantic City, New Jersey for consideration of approximately $2.5 million.
The CMIF Refinancing consists of the issuance of notes payable totalling
$50.0 million to World Subordinated Debt Partners, L.P., an affiliate of
Citicorp Mezzanine Investment Fund ("CMIF"). The proceeds were used to fund
the Heritage Acquisition, repay the Registrant's existing long-term debt and
for general corporate purposes.
The accompanying pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet at September
30, 1995 assumes that the Syracuse Disposition and Anniston Option were made
as of September 30, 1995. The accompanying pro forma condensed consolidated
statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 1994 assumes that
the Syracuse Disposition, Anniston Option, Atlantic City Acquisition,
Heritage Acquisition and CMIF Refinancing occurred as of January 1, 1994.
The accompanying pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations for
the nine months ended September 30, 1995 assumes that the Syracuse Disposition
and Anniston Option were made as of January 1, 1995. The pretax gains
resulting from the Syracuse Disposition and Anniston Option are not reflected
in the accompanying pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations.
In management's opinion, the accompanying pro forma financial information is
not necessarily indicative of either future results of operations or the
results that might have occurred if the foregoing transactions had been
consummated on the indicated dates.
