1997. The condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto
included in the Company's Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission on March 31, 1997.
NOTE 2 - NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE

</TABLE>
* Net of proceeds received by the Company upon the simultaneous disposition of
certain assets as described below.
The 1997 acquisitions have been accounted for using the purchase method of
accounting and the results of operations have been included in the consolidated
financial statements subsequent to the date of acquisition. The acquisitions
resulted in goodwill of $307.8 million which represents the excess of the
purchase price over the fair
4
<PAGE> 7
value of the assets which amount will be amortized on a straight-line basis over
30 years. The Company is continuing its evaluation of the fair value of the 1997
acquisitions and further adjustments to the purchase prices may be made.
As set forth in the table above, on August 15, 1997, the Company acquired the
outdoor advertising operations of Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing Company
("3M") through the purchase of the capital stock of National Advertising
Company, a subsidiary of 3M ("3M Media"), for approximately $1.0 billion in cash
(the "3M Acquisition").
The Company financed the purchase price of the 3M Acquisition and the fees
and expenses associated with the acquisition and the acquisition financing
through (i) proceeds from the offering of 13,500,000 shares of common stock (the
"Common Stock Offering") to the public, completed on May 28, 1997, (ii) proceeds
of an offering of $500 million aggregate principal amount of 8 7/8% Senior
Subordinated Notes due 2007 completed on June 23, 1997 (the "Notes Offering"),
and (iii) borrowings under the Company's senior credit facility which was
amended to provide for a revolving credit facility and term loans of up to
approximately $900 million.
In connection and simultaneously with the 3M Acquisition, the Company sold to
Lamar Advertising Company ("Lamar") and another outdoor advertising company
certain outdoor advertising assets the Company acquired from 3M. The assets sold
consisted of approximately 1,800 advertising displays in Atlanta, Denver,
Detroit, Grand Rapids, Houston, New Orleans, Kansas City, Louisville, Phoenix
and Sacramento. The selling price for such assets was approximately $116 million
in cash.
The other 1997 acquisitions were financed, primarily, utilizing cash flows
and borrowings under the Company's senior credit facility.
NOTE 4 - NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT
Effective in 1997, the Company is required to implement SFAS No. 128,
"Earnings Per Share" which requires, among other matters, presentation of basic
earnings per share, which is calculated utilizing only weighted average common
shares outstanding. Basic earnings (loss) per share would have been $0.09 and
$(0.13) for the three months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996, and $0.11 and
$(0.18) for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996 under SFAS 128.
Fully diluted earnings (loss) per share would have been $0.09 and $(0.12) for
the three months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996, and $0.10 and $(0.18) for
the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996 under SFAS 128.
The Financial Accounting Standards Board recently issued SFAS No. 130 on
"Reporting Comprehensive Income" and SFAS No. 131 on "Disclosures about Segments
of an Enterprise and Related Information". The "Reporting Comprehensive Income"
standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. The
standard changes the reporting of certain items currently reported in the common
stock equity section of the balance sheet. The Company is currently evaluating
what impact this standard will have on the Company's financial statements. The
"Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information" standard
is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. This standard
requires that public companies report certain information about operating
segments in their financial statements. It also establishes related disclosures
about products and services, geographic areas, and major customers. The Company
is currently evaluating what impact this standard will have on its disclosures.
NOTE 5 - 1997 EXTRAORDINARY LOSS
In connection with the 3M Acquisition, the Company entered into bridge loan
financing commitments. Commitment fees aggregated $11.3 million. The bridge loan
financing commitment was cancelled in June 1997 after the Company completed the
Notes Offering, without the Company needing borrowings under a bridge loan.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1997
include the operations of the Gannett Outdoor acquisition (the "Gannett Outdoor
Acquisition") completed August 23, 1996, the operations of the 3M Media
acquisition (the "3M Acquisition") completed August 15, 1997, and the several
acquisitions completed during the first nine months of 1997 (the "Other 1997
Acquisitions") (see Note 3 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(unaudited)) (collectively, the "Acquisitions").
COMPARISON OF THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1997 AND
SEPTEMBER 30, 1996
Gross revenues increased 217.7% to $148.2 million during the third quarter of
1997 from $46.6 million in the third quarter of 1996. Gross revenues increased
approximately 10.2% during the third quarter of 1997 compared to the third
quarter of 1996 for markets where the Company operated both in the 1997 and 1996
periods. The balance of the increased revenues were a result of the 3M
Acquisition and the Other 1997 Acquisitions (the "1997 Acquisitions").
Agency commissions were 13.7% of gross revenues in the third quarter of 1997
compared to 14.0% in the third quarter of 1996. Agency commissions were lower in
the 1997 quarter primarily as a result of a slightly lower proportion of
revenues generated through advertising agencies.
Net revenues increased by 216.0% to $132.0 million in the third quarter of
1997 from $41.8 million in the third quarter of 1996, primarily as a result of
the increase in gross revenues combined with an increase of $2.5 million of
other income. Other income increased primarily due to the inclusion of license
fee revenue from perpetual easements acquired at the end of the first quarter of
1997 and the inclusion of revenues from a printing operation acquired in
connection with the Gannett Outdoor Acquisition.
Direct advertising expenses increased to $64.3 million in the third quarter
of 1997 from $22.3 million in the third quarter of 1996. This was primarily a
result of the 1997 Acquisitions. As a percentage of net revenues, direct
advertising expenses decreased to 48.7% in the third quarter of 1997 from 53.4%
in the third quarter of 1996.
General and administrative expenses increased to $7.1 million in the third
quarter of 1997 compared to $2.8 million in the third quarter of 1996, primarily
as a result of the 1997 Acquisitions. As a percentage of net revenues, general
and administrative expenses decreased to 5.4% in the third quarter of 1997 from
6.7% in the third quarter of 1996.
EBITDA (operating income (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation and
amortization expense and gain on 1996 sale) increased by 262.8% to $60.6 million
in the third quarter of 1997 from $16.7 million in the third quarter of 1996, as
a result of the 1997 Acquisitions.
Depreciation and amortization expense increased to $23.0 million in the third
quarter of 1997 compared to $5.9 million in the third quarter of 1996, primarily
due to the 1997 Acquisitions, offset in part by certain assets becoming fully
depreciated during the third quarter of 1997. As a percentage of net revenues,
depreciation and amortization expense increased to 17.5% in the third quarter of
1997 from 14.1% in the third quarter of 1996.
Interest expense increased to $23.5 million in the third quarter of 1997 from
$9.3 million in the third quarter of 1996, as a result of interest expense
related to the obligations incurred in connection with the 1997 Acquisitions. As
a percentage of net revenues, interest expense decreased to 17.8% for the third
quarter of 1997 from 22.4% for the third quarter of 1996.
The Company recorded an income tax provision of approximately $6.3 million in
the third quarter of 1997 compared to $3.6 million in the third quarter of 1996.
6
<PAGE> 9
The foregoing factors contributed to the Company's $7.7 million net income in
the third quarter of 1997 compared to $7.2 million net loss in the third quarter
of 1996.
COMPARISON OF NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1997 AND
SEPTEMBER 30, 1996
Gross revenues increased by 293.4% to $348.4 million during the first nine
months of 1997 compared to $88.6 million in the first nine months of 1996. Gross
revenues increased approximately 10.4% during the first nine months of 1997
compared to the first nine months of 1996 for markets where the Company operated
both in the 1997 and 1996 periods. The balance of the increased revenues were a
result of the 1997 Acquisitions.
Agency commissions were 13.9% of gross revenues in the first nine months of
1997 compared to 13.8% in the first nine months of 1996. Agency commissions were
higher in the first nine months of 1997 primarily as a result of a slightly
higher proportion of revenues generated through advertising agencies.
Net revenues increased by 298.0% to $311.6 million in the first nine months
of 1997 from $78.3 million in the first nine months of 1996, primarily as a
result of the increase in gross revenues combined with an increase of $9.6
million of other income. Other income increased primarily due to the inclusion
of license fee revenue from perpetual easements acquired at the end of the first
quarter of 1997 and the inclusion of revenues from a printing operation acquired
in connection with the Gannett Outdoor Acquisition.
Direct advertising expenses increased to $161.8 million in the first nine
months of 1997 from $38.4 million in the first nine months of 1996. This
increase was primarily a result of the 1997 Acquisitions. As a percentage of net
revenues, direct advertising expenses were approximately 51.9% in the first nine
months of 1997 compared to 49.1% in the first nine months of 1996.
General and administrative expenses increased to $20.0 million in the first
nine months of 1997 from $5.0 million in the first nine months of 1996,
primarily as a result of the 1997 Acquisitions. As a percentage of net revenues,
general and administrative expenses were approximately 6.4% in the first nine
months of 1997 and 1996.
EBITDA (operating income (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation and
amortization expense and gain on 1996 sale) increased by 272.4% to $129.8
million in the first nine months of 1997 from $34.9 million in the first nine
months of 1996, as a result of the 1997 Acquisitions.
Depreciation and amortization expense increased to $48.2 million in the first
nine months of 1997 from $11.1 million in the first nine months of 1996,
primarily due to the 1997 Acquisitions, offset in part by certain assets
becoming fully depreciated during the first nine months of 1997. As a percentage
of net revenues, depreciation and amortization expense increased to 15.5% in the
first nine months of 1997 from 14.2% in the first nine months of 1996.
Interest expense increased to $55.5 million in the first nine months of 1997
from $17.3 million in the first nine months of 1996, as a result of interest
expense related to the obligations incurred in connection with the 1997
Acquisitions. As a percentage of net revenues, interest expense decreased to
17.8% for the first nine months of 1997 from 22.1% for the first nine months of
1996.
The Company recorded an income tax provision of approximately $11.3 million
in the first nine months of 1997 compared to $5.6 million in the first nine
months of 1996. The Company reported a $6.8 million extraordinary loss, net of
$4.5 million tax benefit, in the first nine months of 1997 and a $13.2 million
extraordinary loss, net of $8.8 million tax benefit, in the first nine months of
1996, both resulting primarily from one time bridge loan commitment costs in
connection with the Acquisitions and from a premium associated with the early
redemption of 10 3/4% Senior Notes due 2003.
The foregoing factors contributed to the Company's $8.0 million net income in
the first nine months of 1997 compared to $5.1 million net loss in the first
nine months of 1996.

<PAGE> 10
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company's working capital increased to $53.4 million at September 30,
1997 compared to $36.1 million at December 31, 1996. This increase resulted
primarily from the increase in accounts receivable and prepaid land leases
offset by the increase in accrued interest and other liabilities due to the 1997
Acquisitions.
Net cash provided by operating activities increased by $67.4 million to $81.8
million for the nine months ended September 30, 1997, compared to $14.4 million
for the nine months ended September 30, 1996, primarily due to changes in
working capital accounts and the effect of a larger depreciation and
amortization expense as a component of net income. Net cash used in investing
activities increased to $1,240.0 million in the first nine months of 1997 from
$732.4 million in the first nine months of 1996, primarily because of the 1997
Acquisitions. Net cash provided by financing activities was $1,165.1 million for
the first nine months of 1997 compared to $728.9 million for the first nine
months of 1996, primarily because of proceeds received from the Common Stock
Offering, the Notes Offering and borrowings under the senior credit facility,
all used to finance the 1997 Acquisitions.
The Company made approximately $20.8 million of capital expenditures during
the first nine months of 1997, an increase from approximately $5.3 million
during the first nine months of 1996. Currently, the Company has no material
commitments for capital expenditures in the ordinary course of business,
although it anticipates ongoing capital expenditures, other than for
acquisitions, will be approximately $28.0 million to $32.0 million in each of
the next two years.
On August 15, 1997, the Company completed the acquisition of the outdoor
advertising operations of 3M through the purchase of the capital stock of
National Advertising Company for approximately $903.2 million in cash, which is
net of approximately $117.2 million from simultaneous divestitures.
The Company financed the purchase price of the 3M Acquisition and the fees
and expenses associated with the 3M Acquisition and the acquisition financing
through (i) proceeds from the Common Stock Offering, (ii) proceeds from the
Notes Offering, and (iii) borrowings under the Company's senior credit facility.
The Company believes that internally generated funds and available borrowings
under the senior credit facility will be sufficient to satisfy its operating
cash requirements for at least the next twelve to twenty-four months. The
Company may, however, require additional capital to consummate significant
acquisitions in the future and there can be no assurance that such capital will
be available.
