ITEM 5.  OTHER EVENTS.

Recent Developments

         On August 24, 1997, SFX Broadcasting, Inc. (the "Company") entered
into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") with SBI
Holdings Corporation ("Buyer") and SBI Radio Acquisition corporation pursuant
to which the Company will become a wholly owned subsidiary of Buyer (the
"Merger"). In the Merger, holders of the Company's Class A Common Stock will
receive $75.00 per share and the holders of the Company's Class B Common Stock
will receive $97.50 per share, subject to adjustment under certain
circumstances. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Company intends to
spin-off (the "Spin-Off") its concert promotion and venue operation business
("SFX Entertainment") pro-rata to its stockholders and the holders of certain
warrants prior to the effective time of the Merger. In general, the receipt of
cash by the Company's stockholders pursuant to the Merger and the receipt of
stock in the Spin-Off, will be taxable events for stockholders.

         The Company, on behalf of SFX Entertainment, is presently in advanced
negotiations for the acquisitions of several businesses in the live
entertainment and related businesses with an aggregate purchase price of
approximately $500,000,000 (the "Pending Entertainment Acquisitions"). SFX
Entertainment intends to finance a portion of the Pending Entertainment
Acquisitions by issuing rights to receive the common stock of SFX
Entertainment upon the consummation of the Spin-Off. The values ascribed to
the SFX Entertainment common stock in the agreements relating to the Pending
Entertainment Acquisitions will be based upon certain financial projections
developed jointly by the Company and the respective sellers and it is expected
that such values will be greater than the book value of the SFX Entertainment
common stock at the time the Pending Entertainment Acquisitions are
consummated. There is presently no trading market for the SFX Entertainment
common stock and there can be no assurance that the assumptions upon which
such valuations are based will, in fact, be correct and that such valuations
will approximate the actual trading price of the SFX Entertainment common
stock.

         SFX Entertainment intends to finance the cash portion of the Pending
Entertainment Acquisitions through a combination of privately-placed debt and
borrowings under a bank credit facility. There can be no assurance that
definitive agreements for these acquisitions will be entered into, financing
to consummate the acquisitions will be available on terms satisfactory or at
all or that the acquisitions will be consummated. While there can be no
assurance, management believes that financing on satisfactory terms will be
available.

         The consummation of the Merger and/or the Spin-Off is subject to
certain conditions and the receipt of certain consents including, among other
things, the approval of the Company's common stock voting together as a single
class, the approval of each of the Class A Common Stock and Series D preferred
stock, voting separately as a class, and the consents of the holders of the
Series E preferred stock and certain of the Company's outstanding notes. In
addition, the Merger is subject to the receipt of certain regulatory
approvals.

         The Company anticipates that the Merger will be consummated in the
second quarter of 1998 and that the Spin-Off will occur prior thereto. There
can be no assurance that the various approvals or consents will be given or
that the conditions to consummating the Merger will be met or that the
Spin-Off will occur as presently contemplated or at all.

Pro Forma Financial Information

         Attached hereto as Annex A are the unaudited pro forma condensed
combined financial statements of the Company as of September 30, 1997 and for
the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and the year ended December 31, 1996.
The Pending Entertainment Acquisitions have not been reflected in the pro
forma financial statements as they would not have a material impact on the
Company.

                                    ANNEX A


         UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

   The following financial statements and notes thereto contain 
forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. The actual 
results of SFX Broadcasting, Inc. (the "Company") may differ materially from 
those discussed herein. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly 
release the result of any revisions to these forward-looking statements that 
may be made to reflect any future events or circumstances. 

   

   In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to fairly present 
this pro forma information have been made. The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed 
Combined Financial Statements are based upon, and should be read in 
conjunction with, the historical financial statements and the respective 
notes to such financial statements incorporated herein by reference. The pro 
forma information is based upon tentative allocations of the purchase price 
for acquisitions completed within the last year and acquisitions still 
pending, and does not purport to be indicative of the results that would have 
been reported had such events actually occurred on the dates specified, nor 
is it indicative of the Company's future results. The Company cannot predict 
whether the consummation of the Pending Acquisition or Disposition will 
conform to the assumptions used in the preparation of the Unaudited Pro 
Forma Condensed Combined Financial Statements. 

   The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Balance Sheet at September 30, 
1997 is presented as if the Company had completed the Pending Acquisition 
and Disposition as of September 30, 1997. No adjustment has been made to the 
Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Balance Sheet for the Chancellor 
Exchange, other than the receipt of cash, as it will be recorded at 
historical cost. 

   The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Statements of Operations for 
the year ended December 31, 1996 and the nine months ended September 30, 1997 
are presented as if the Company had completed the Completed Acquisitions and 
Dispositions and the Pending Acquisition and Disposition as of 
January 1, 1996. The Albany Acquisition and the pending concert promotion
and venue operation acquisitions have not been reflected in the Unaudited
Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Statements as they would not have
a material impact.

    The Company expects to use the proceeds from the Capstar Disposition to 
  complete a similar acquisition so that the Capstar Disposition can be 
  treated as a like-kind exchange which would be substantially tax free. 
  Should the Company be unable to structure such a transaction, the Company 
  would utilize its available net operating loss carryforwards and pay 
  approximately $6,000,000 in additional income taxes. No adjustment has been 
  made for the potential payment of any additional income taxes. 

 (2) Pro Forma Adjustments 

   a.     To reflect the Nashville Acquisition for $33,000,000 in cash (net 
          of a $2,000,000 deposit made in August 1997), the related excess of 
          the purchase price paid over net book value of $27,479,000, and the 
          adjustments to remove $1,370,000 of current assets, $566,000 of 
          other assets, $545,000 of current liabilities, and stockholders' 
          equity of $8,912,000. 

   b.     To reflect additional acquisition costs of approximately $2,000,000 
          related to the Nashville Acquisition and Chancellor Exchange, 
          principally consisting of professional fees and to reclassify 
          deposits, professional fees and other payments of approximately 
          $3,440,000 included in other assets as of September 30, 1997. 

   c.     To reflect the $11,000,000 of cash to be received in the Chancellor 
          Exchange. No gain or loss will be recognized because the fair 
          market value of the stations received, as adjusted for cash 
          received or paid, equals the carrying value of the stations 
          exchanged. 

   d.     To use the net cash proceeds from the Capstar Disposition, 
          Nashville Acquisition and Chancellor Exchange to reduce debt under 
          the Company's Credit Agreement.

   (1) MMR Merger 

     Reflects the net effect of the historical operations of Multi-Market 
     Radio, Inc. ("MMR") as adjusted for acquisitions and dispositions.  The
     Company has not included in the pro forma statement of operations cost 
     savings of $792,000 it believes would have been achieved in connection 
     with the Hartford Acquisition had the transaction been consummated as of
     January 1, 1996, consisting principally of the elimination of certain 
     duplicative technical sales and general and administrative functions due
     to the operation of a cluster of stations in the Hartford market.

   (8) Pro Forma Adjustments 

   
     The Company has not included in the pro forma adjustments certain cost
savings totalling $11,559,000 it believes would have been realized for the 
year ended December 31, 1996 following the Liberty Acquisition, the Prism 
Acquisition, the Houston Exchange, the Jackson Acquisitions, the Hearst 
Acquisition, the Charlotte Exchange, the Richmond Acquisition, the Texas Coast
Acquisition and Hartford Acquisition and $2,881,000 for the nine months ended
September 30, 1997 following Richmond Acquisition, the Hearst Acquisition,
the Charlotte Exchange, Hartford Acquisition, and Texas Coast Acquisition,
had these transactions been consummated as of January 1, 1996. The cost 
savings consist principally of the elimination of certain duplicative 
technical, sales and general and administrative functions due to the operation
of a cluster of stations in each of its principal markets, a reduction of 
employee benefit costs and commission rates and the elimination of programming
personnel due to automation and simulcasting.

     Also not reflected are the elimination of $6,078,000 non-recurring losses
of Delsener/Slater and the elimination of certain salaries and expenses of 
employee-shareholders in connection with the Hartford Acquisition.

     While management believes that such cost savings and the elimination of
non-recurring expenses are reasonably achievable, and many of which have been
achieved, the Company's ability to fully achieve such cost savings and to 
eliminate the non-recurring expenses is subject to numerous factors, many of
which are beyond the Company's control. These factors may include difficulties
in integrating the acquired stations  and the incurrence of unanticipated 
severance, promotional or other costs and expenses. There can be no assurance
that the Company will realize all such cost savings.
    


     a. To reflect interest expense of $36,282,000 and $48,375,000 for the 
        nine months ended September 30, 1997 and the year ended December 31,

        Subordinated Notes at 10.75% issued in 1996, amortization of deferred 
        financing costs of $125,000 and $1,491,000 for the nine months ended 
        September 30, 1997 and the year ended December 31, 1996, 
        respectively, interest expense of $16,848,000 and $22,462,000

        1996, respectively, and elimination of existing interest expense (net 
        of interest on other debt) of $47,397,000 and $41,218,000 related to 
        the Company and the sellers for the nine months ended September 30, 
        1997 and the year ended December 31, 1996, respectively.

   (1) Pro Forma Adjustments 

   
     The Company has not included in the pro forma adjustments certain cost
savings totalling $539,000 it believes would have been realized for the year
ended December 31, 1996 following the Nashville Acquisition and the Chancellor
Exchange and $375,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 following
the Nashville Acquisition and the Chancellor Exchange, had these transactions 
been consummated as of January 1, 1996. The cost savings consist principally 
of the elimination of certain duplicative technical, sales and general and
administrative functions due to the operation of a cluster of stations in each
of its principal markets, a reduction of employee benefit costs and commission
rates and the elimination of programming personnel due to automation and
simulcasting.

     While management believes that such cost savings and the elimination of
non-recurring expenses are reasonably achievable, the Company's ability to 
fully achieve such cost savings and to eliminate the non-recurring expenses 
is subject to numerous factors, many of which are beyond the Company's 
control. These factors may include difficulties in integrating the acquired 
stations and the incurrence of unanticipated severance, promotional or other
costs and expenses. There can be no assurance that the Company will realize
all such cost savings.
    

     a. To reflect the elimination of existing interest expense of $36,000 
        and $2,108,000 related to the Capstar Disposition for the nine months 
        ended September 30, 1997 and the year ended December 31, 1996, 
        respectively. 

     b. Reflects increase in amortization of intangible assets of $393,000 
        and $525,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and the 
        year ended December 31, 1996, respectively, resulting from the 
        purchase price allocation and change in amortization period related 
        to the Nashville Acquisition. 

   
     c. Amortization of $39,000 and $50,000 for acquisition costs associated 
        with the Pending Acquisitions for the nine months ended September 30, 
        1997 and the year ended December 31, 1996, respectively. 
    

     d. To reflect the reduced amortization of goodwill and elimination of 
        LMA fees of the Chancellor Exchange.
