NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
(1) Interim Financial Statements
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC). Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) have been omitted pursuant to the SEC rules and regulations. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect, in the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position and results of operations for the periods indicated.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and include the consolidated accounts of Beasley Broadcast Group, Inc. (the Company) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2004 has been derived from the Companys audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004. The financial statements and related notes included in this report should be read in conjunction with the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004.
Results of the second quarter of 2005 are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year.
Certain amounts previously reported in the 2004 condensed consolidated condensed financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the 2005 presentation.
(2) Stock-Based Employee Compensation
As of June 30, 2005, the Company has one stock-based employee compensation plan. The Company accounts for this plan under the recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees. No stock-based employee compensation cost is reflected in net income, as all options granted under the plan had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. The following table illustrates the effect on net income and net income per share as if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, as amended by SFAS 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure, to stock-based employee compensation.

(3) Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2004, FASB issued SFAS 123(R), Share-Based Payment. SFAS 123(R) establishes standards for the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services. It also addresses transactions in which an entity incurs liabilities in exchange for goods or services that are based on the fair value of the entitys equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of those equity instruments. SFAS 123(R) replaces SFAS 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, and supersedes APB Opinion 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees. SFAS 123(R) eliminates the alternative to use Opinion 25s intrinsic value method of accounting that was provided in SFAS 123 as originally issued. Under Opinion 25, issuing stock options to employees generally resulted in recognition of no compensation cost. SFAS 123(R) requires entities to recognize the cost of employee services received in exchange for awards of equity instruments based on the grant date fair value of those awards. On April 14, 2005, the SEC announced an amendment to the compliance dates for SFAS 123(R) that delays the effective date for calendar year-end companies until the beginning of 2006. The Company has not completed its evaluation of the impact of the adoption of SFAS 123(R).
(4) Termination of Asset Purchase Agreement
In June 2004, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement to acquire WGQR-FM and WBLA-AM in the Elizabethtown radio market in North Carolina for approximately $850,000. On June 24, 2005, the FCC released a decision denying the request for waiver of the multiple ownership rules that the Company had filed in connection with its application to acquire WGQR-FM and WBLA-AM. The decision also dismissed the related pending assignment application. Consequently, the asset purchase agreement was effectively terminated on June 24, 2005 and the Company wrote off $141,000 of previously capitalized costs related to the asset purchase agreement.
(5) Long-Term Debt
Long-term debt is comprised of the following:

(5,625,000 | ) | (7,500,000 | ) | ||||
$ | 153,361,906 | $ | 144,611,906 | |||||
As of June 30, 2005, the revolving credit loan had a maximum commitment of $75.0 million and included a $10.0 million sub-limit for letters of credit, which may be increased to $20.0 million upon the Companys request and with the approval of the Bank of Montreal, Chicago Branch in its capacity as a letter of credit issuer. At the Companys election, the revolving credit loan and term loan may bear interest at either the base rate or LIBOR plus a margin that is determined by the Companys debt to operating cash flow ratio. The base rate is equal to the higher of the prime rate or the overnight federal funds rate plus 0.5%. Interest on base rate loans is payable quarterly through maturity. Interest on LIBOR loans is payable on the last day of the selected LIBOR period and, if the selected period is longer than three months, every three months after the beginning of the LIBOR period. The revolving credit loan and term loan carried interest, based on LIBOR, at 4.2858% and 4.6045% as of December 31, 2004 and June 30, 2005, respectively, and mature on June 30, 2011. The scheduled reductions in the amount available under the revolving credit loan may require principal repayments if the outstanding balance at that time exceeds the maximum amount available under the revolving credit loan.

As of June 30, 2005, the Company had $71.0 million in remaining commitments available under the revolving portion of its credit facility; however, as of June 30, 2005, the Companys maximum consolidated total debt covenant would have limited additional borrowings to $47.5 million.
The credit facility is secured by substantially all of the Companys assets and guaranteed jointly and severally by all of the Companys subsidiaries. The guarantees were issued to the Companys lenders for repayment of the outstanding balance of the credit facility. If the Company defaults under the terms of the credit agreement, the subsidiaries may be required to perform under their guarantees. The maximum amount of payments the subsidiaries would have to make in the event of default is $152.1 million. The guarantees for the revolving credit loan and term loan expire on June 30, 2011.
As of June 30, 2005, the scheduled repayments of the credit facility for the remainder of fiscal 2005, the following four years and thereafter are as follows:

The Company is required to satisfy financial covenants under its credit facility, which require it to maintain specified financial ratios and to comply with financial tests, such as ratios for maximum consolidated total debt, minimum interest coverage and minimum fixed charges. As of June 30, 2005, these financial covenants included:
| Maximum Consolidated Total Debt Ratio. As of June 30, 2005, the Companys consolidated total debt must not have exceeded 6.0 times its consolidated operating cash flow for the four quarters then ending (as those terms are defined in the credit agreement). On the last day of each fiscal quarter for the period from July 1, 2005 through December 31, 2005, the maximum ratio remains 6.0 times; on the last day of each fiscal quarter for the period from January 1, 2006 through June 30, 2006, the maximum ratio is 5.75 times; on the last day of each fiscal quarter for the period from July 1, 2006 through December 31, 2006, the maximum ratio is 5.5 times; on the last day of each fiscal quarter for the period from January 1, 2007 through June 30, 2007, the maximum ratio is 5.25 times; on the last day of each fiscal quarter for the period from July 1, 2007 through December 31, 2007, the maximum ratio is 5.0 times; on the last day of each fiscal quarter for all periods after January 1, 2008, the maximum ratio is 4.5 times. |
| Minimum Interest Coverage Ratio. The Companys consolidated operating cash flow for the four quarters ending on the last day of each quarter must not have been less than 2.0 times the amount of its consolidated cash interest expense for such four quarter period. |
| Minimum Fixed Charge Ratio. The Companys consolidated operating cash flow for any four consecutive quarters must not be less than 1.1 times the amount of its consolidated fixed charges for such four quarter period. Fixed charges include cash interest expense, cash tax expense, capital expenditures, agency and commitment fees, and scheduled principal repayments. |
Failure to comply with these financial covenants, scheduled interest payments, scheduled principal repayments, or any other terms of its credit facility could result in the acceleration of the maturity of its

outstanding debt. The Company believes that it will have sufficient liquidity and capital resources to permit it to meet its financial obligations for at least the next twelve months.
As of June 30, 2005, management of the Company believed it was in compliance with applicable financial covenants.
On June 27, 2005, the Companys credit agreement was amended to, among other things, reduce the rate of interest it pays on each loan made thereunder.
(6) Income Taxes
The Companys effective tax rate is approximately 40%, which differs from the federal statutory rate of 34% due to the effect of state income taxes and certain expenses that are not deductible for tax purposes.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
You should read the following discussion together with the financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this report. The results discussed below are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected in any future periods. This report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. All statements other than statements of historical fact are forward-looking statements for purposes of federal and state securities laws, including any projections of earnings, revenues or other financial items; any statements of the plans, strategies and objectives of management for future operations; any statements concerning proposed new services or developments; any statements regarding future economic conditions or performance; any statements of belief; and any statements of assumptions underlying any of the foregoing. Forward-looking statements may include the words may, will, estimate, intend, continue, believe, expect or anticipate and other similar words. Such forward-looking statements may be contained in Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, among other places. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in any of our forward-looking statements are reasonable, actual results could differ materially from those projected or assumed in any of our forward-looking statements. Our future financial condition and results of operations, as well as any forward-looking statements, are subject to change and to inherent risks and uncertainties, such as unforeseen events that would cause us to broadcast commercial-free for any period of time, and changes in the radio broadcasting industry generally. We do not intend, and undertake no obligation, to update any forward-looking statement. Key risks to our company are described in our annual report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 2, 2005.
General
We own and operate 41 radio stations in the following markets: Atlanta, GA, Boston, MA, Philadelphia, PA, Miami-Ft. Lauderdale, FL, Las Vegas, NV, West Palm Beach-Boca Raton, FL, Ft. Myers-Naples, FL, Fayetteville, NC, Greenville-New Bern-Jacksonville, NC, and Augusta, GA. We refer to each group of radio stations that we own in each radio market as a market cluster.
Recent Developments
On June 27, 2005, our credit agreement was amended to, among other things, reduce the rate of interest we pay on each loan made thereunder.
On July 1, 2005, we began granting restricted stock to certain employees under our 2000 Equity Plan and during the third quarter of 2005 we began recording stock-based employee compensation cost related to these grants, in accordance with SFAS 123.
In June 2004, we entered into an asset purchase agreement to acquire WGQR-FM and WBLA-AM in the Elizabethtown radio market in North Carolina for approximately $850,000. On June 24, 2005, the FCC released a decision denying the request for waiver of the multiple ownership rules that we had filed in connection with our application to acquire WGQR-FM and WBLA-AM. The decision also dismissed our related pending assignment application. Consequently, the asset purchase agreement was effectively terminated on June 24, 2005 and we wrote off $141,000 of previously capitalized costs related to the asset purchase agreement.
Financial Statement Presentation
Net Revenue. Our net revenue is primarily derived from the sale of advertising airtime to local and national advertisers. Net revenue is gross revenue less agency commissions. Local revenue generally consists of advertising airtime sales to advertisers in a radio stations local market either directly to the advertiser or through the advertisers agency. National revenue generally consists of advertising airtime sales to agencies purchasing advertising for multiple markets. National sales are generally facilitated by our national representation firm, which serves as our agent in these transactions.

Table of Contents
The advertising rates that we are able to charge and the number of advertisements that we can broadcast without jeopardizing listener levels generally determine our net revenue. Advertising rates are primarily based on the following factors:
| a radio stations audience share in the demographic groups targeted by advertisers as measured principally by quarterly reports issued by the Arbitron Ratings Company; |
| the number of radio stations, as well as other forms of media, in the market competing for the attention of the same demographic groups; |
| the supply of, and demand for, radio advertising time; and |
| the size of the market. |
Our net revenue is affected by general economic conditions, competition and our ability to improve operations at our market clusters. Seasonal revenue fluctuations are also common in the radio broadcasting industry and are primarily due to variations in advertising expenditures by local and national advertisers. Typically, revenues are lowest in the first calendar quarter of the year and highest in the fourth calendar quarter.
We use trade sales agreements to reduce cash paid for expenses by exchanging advertising airtime for goods or services; however, we minimize our use of trade sales agreements to maximize cash revenue from our inventory of airtime. The following summary table presents a comparison of our trade sales revenue and expenses.

Operating Expenses. Our operating expenses consist primarily of (1) programming, engineering, and promotional expenses, reported as cost of services, and selling, general and administrative expenses incurred at our radio stations, (2) general and administrative expenses, including compensation, insurance and other expenses, incurred at our corporate offices, and (3) depreciation and amortization. We strive to control our operating expenses by centralizing certain functions at our corporate offices and consolidating certain functions in each of our market clusters.
Income Taxes. Our effective tax rate is approximately 40%, which differs from the federal statutory rate of 34% due to the effect of state income taxes and certain of our expenses that are not deductible for tax purposes.
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and related disclosures. We consider an accounting estimate to be critical if:
| it requires assumptions to be made that were uncertain at the time the estimate was made; and |
| changes in the estimate or different estimates that could have been selected could have a material impact on our consolidated results of operations or financial condition. |
Impairment of FCC Broadcasting Licenses and Goodwill. We are required to estimate the fair value of our FCC broadcasting licenses and reporting units on at least an annual basis. To estimate the fair value of our FCC broadcasting licenses as of December 31, 2004, we obtained appraisals from an independent appraisal company. The appraisal company estimated the fair values of our FM broadcast licenses using discounted future cash flows and the fair values of our AM licenses using a market valuation approach. The appraisal includes several assumptions and estimates including the determination of future cash flows and an appropriate discount rate. If
10
Table of Contents
the appraisal company had made different assumptions or used different estimates, including those used to determine future cash flows and the discount rate, the fair value of our FCC broadcasting licenses could have been materially different. We used internally-generated estimates of future cash flows to determine the fair value of each of our reporting units as of December 31, 2004. These estimates required management judgment and if we had made different assumptions the fair value of our reporting units could have been materially different. We did not record any impairment losses on our FCC broadcasting licenses or goodwill in 2004. There can be no assurance that impairment of our FCC broadcasting licenses or goodwill will not occur in future periods.
Impairment of Property and Equipment. We are required to assess the recoverability of our property and equipment whenever an event has occurred that may result in an impairment loss. If such an event occurs, we will compare estimates of related future undiscounted cash flows to the carrying amount of the asset. If the future undiscounted cash flow estimates are less than the carrying amount of the asset, we will reduce the carrying amount to the estimated fair value. The determination of when an event has occurred and estimates of future cash flows and fair value all require management judgment. The use of different assumptions or estimates may result in alternative assessments that could be materially different. We did not identify any events that may have resulted in an impairment loss on our property and equipment in 2004 or during the six months ended June 30, 2005. There can be no assurance that impairment of our property and equipment will not occur in future periods.
Valuation of Accounts Receivable. We continually evaluate our ability to collect our accounts receivable. Our ongoing evaluation includes review of specific accounts at our radio stations, the current financial condition of our customers and our historical write-off experience. This ongoing evaluation requires management judgment and if we had made different assumptions about these factors, the allowance for doubtful accounts could have been materially different.
Recent Pronouncements
In December 2004, FASB issued SFAS 123(R), Share-Based Payment. SFAS 123(R) establishes standards for the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services. It also addresses transactions in which an entity incurs liabilities in exchange for goods or services that are based on the fair value of the entitys equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of those equity instruments. SFAS 123(R) replaces SFAS 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, and supersedes APB Opinion 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees. SFAS 123(R) eliminates the alternative to use Opinion 25s intrinsic value method of accounting that was provided in SFAS 123 as originally issued. Under Opinion 25, issuing stock options to employees generally resulted in recognition of no compensation cost. SFAS 123(R) requires entities to recognize the cost of employee services received in exchange for awards of equity instruments based on the grant date fair value of those awards. On April 14, 2005, the SEC announced an amendment to the compliance dates for SFAS 123(R) that delays the effective date for calendar year-end companies until the beginning of 2006. We have not completed our evaluation of the impact of the adoption of SFAS 123(R).

Net Revenue. The $2.1 million increase in net revenue during the three months ended June 30, 2005 was due to improved performance at eight of our ten market clusters and included a $1.5 million increase at our Philadelphia market cluster, a $0.3 million increase at our Miami-Ft. Lauderdale market cluster, and a $0.3 million increase at our Ft. Myers-Naples market cluster. Net revenue decreased $0.4 million at our Augusta market cluster as a result of increased competition in that market.
Cost of Services. The $0.9 million increase in cost of services during the three months ended June 30, 2005 was primarily due to a $0.9 million increase in costs at our Miami-Ft. Lauderdale market cluster resulting from a $0.7 million increase in program rights fees associated with the Florida Marlins baseball team and an increase in other programming and promotional expenses.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. The $0.6 million increase in selling, general and administrative expenses during the three months ended June 30, 2005 was primarily due to increased sales commissions incurred in connection with generating the increase in net revenue at our market clusters.
Corporate General and Administrative Expenses. The $0.3 million increase in corporate general and administrative expenses during the three months ended June 30, 2005 was primarily due to increased costs, including compensation and legal fees, and other costs associated with complying with regulations applicable to public companies.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview. Our primary sources of liquidity are internally generated cash flow and our credit facility. Our primary liquidity needs have been, and for the next twelve months and thereafter are expected to continue to be, for working capital, debt service, and other general corporate purposes, including capital expenditures. Other liquidity needs for the next twelve months and thereafter may also include additional share repurchases, payment of cash dividends and radio station acquisitions. We expect to provide for future liquidity needs through one or a combination of the following sources of liquidity:
| internally generated cash flow; |
| our credit facility; |
| additional borrowings, other than under our existing credit facility, to the extent permitted thereunder; and |
| additional equity offerings. |
We believe that we will have sufficient liquidity and capital resources to permit us to provide for our liquidity requirements and meet our financial obligations for the foreseeable future. However, poor financial results, unanticipated acquisition opportunities or unanticipated expenses could give rise to additional debt servicing requirements or other additional financing or liquidity requirements sooner than we expect and we may not secure financing when needed or on acceptable terms.
As of June 30, 2005, we held $12.8 million in cash and cash equivalents and had $71.0 million in remaining commitments available under the revolving portion of our credit facility; however, as of June 30, 2005, our maximum total leverage covenant would have limited additional borrowings to $47.5 million. Our ability to reduce our total leverage ratio by increasing operating cash flow and/or decreasing long-term debt will determine how much, if any, of the remaining commitments under the revolving portion of our credit facility will be available to us in the future. Poor financial results or unanticipated expenses could result in our failure to maintain or lower our total leverage ratio and we may not be permitted to make any additional borrowings under the revolving portion of our credit facility. Additionally, to the extent that we determine to make additional share repurchases or make future dividend payments instead of repaying indebtedness, or if we incur additional indebtedness in order to make such repurchases or dividend payments, our total debt ratio may be adversely affected and we may not be permitted to make additional borrowings under the revolving portion of our credit facility.
Historically, our capital expenditures have not been significant. In addition to property and equipment associated with radio station acquisitions, our capital expenditures have generally been related to maintenance of our studio and office space and the technological improvement, including upgrades necessary to broadcast HD Radio and maintenance of our broadcasting equipment. We have also purchased or constructed office and studio space in some of our markets to facilitate the consolidation of our operations.
The following summary table presents a comparison of our capital resources for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2005 with respect to certain of our key measures affecting our liquidity. The changes set forth in the table are discussed in greater detail below. This section should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and notes to condensed consolidated financial statements included in Item 1 of this report.

Net Cash Provided By Operating Activities. Net cash provided by operating activities decreased for the six months ended June 30, 2005 compared to the same period in 2004 primarily due to a $2.5 million increase in cash paid for station operating expenses, including selling expenses incurred in connection with generating the increase in net revenue, and a $2.7 million increase in cash paid for income taxes.
Net Cash Used In Investing Activities. Net cash used in investing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2005 was primarily due to cash payments for capital expenditures of $1.2 million; which were partially offset by cash proceeds of $0.6 million from the sale of a building in Augusta, GA. Net cash used in investing activities for the same period in 2004 was primarily due to cash payments for capital expenditures of $2.6 million.
Net Cash Used In Financing Activities. Net cash used in financing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2005 was primarily due to scheduled repayments of $1.9 million and voluntary repayments of $5.0 million of borrowings under our credit facility. Net cash used in financing activities in the same period in 2004 was primarily due to payments of loan fees of $2.3 million associated with an amendment to our credit facility and voluntary repayments of $5.0 million of borrowings under our credit facility.
Credit Facility. Our credit facility consists of a revolving credit loan with a maximum commitment of $75.0 million and a term loan of $150.0 million. The revolving credit loan includes a $10.0 million sub-limit for letters of credit, which may be increased to $20.0 million upon our request and with the approval of the Bank of Montreal, Chicago Branch in its capacity as a letter of credit issuer. At our election, the revolving credit loan and term loan may bear interest at either the base rate or LIBOR plus a margin that is determined by our debt to operating cash flow ratio. The base rate is equal to the higher of the prime rate or the overnight federal funds rate plus 0.5%. Interest on base rate loans is payable quarterly through maturity. Interest on LIBOR loans is payable on the last day of the selected LIBOR period and, if the selected period is longer than three months, every three months after the beginning of the LIBOR period. The revolving credit loan and term loan carried interest, based on LIBOR, at 4.2858% and 4.6045% as of December 31, 2004 and June 30, 2005, respectively, and mature on June 30, 2011. The scheduled reductions in the amount available under the revolving credit loan may require principal repayments if the outstanding balance at that time exceeds the maximum amount available under the revolving credit loan.
Our credit agreement permits us to repurchase up to $50.0 million of our common stock and our board of directors has authorized us to repurchase up to $25.0 million of our common stock. As of June 30, 2005, we have repurchased $0.8 million of our Class A common stock. Our credit agreement also permits us to pay dividends on our common stock in an amount up to an aggregate of $5.0 million per year. As of the date hereof, our Board has not declared any dividend on our common stock. Any decision by our Board to declare and pay a dividend on our common stock in the future, and the amount of any such dividend, will be based on such factors as our financial results, liquidity requirements and capital resources at the time of such declaration, the status of our stock repurchase plan, the terms of, and effect of any such dividend on, our credit facility and the Boards assessment of other factors that could be material to us.
As of June 30, 2005, we had $71.0 million in remaining commitments available under the revolving portion of our credit facility; however, as of June 30, 2005, our maximum consolidated total debt covenant would have limited additional borrowings to $47.5 million.
The credit facility is secured by substantially all of our assets and guaranteed jointly and severally by all of our subsidiaries. The guarantees were issued to our lenders for repayment of the outstanding balance of the credit facility. If we default under the terms of the credit agreement, the subsidiaries may be required to perform under their guarantees. The maximum amount of payments the subsidiaries would have to make in the event of default is $152.1 million. The guarantees for the revolving credit loan and term loan expire on June 30, 2011.

We must pay a quarterly unused commitment fee equal to 0.375% of the unused portion of the revolving credit loan. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2005, our unused commitment fee was approximately $63,000 and $126,000, respectively.
We are required to satisfy financial covenants under our credit facility, which require us to maintain specified financial ratios and to comply with financial tests, such as ratios for maximum consolidated total debt, minimum interest coverage and minimum fixed charges. As of June 30, 2005, these financial covenants included:
| Maximum Consolidated Total Debt Ratio. As of June 30, 2005, our consolidated total debt must not have exceeded 6.0 times our consolidated operating cash flow for the four quarters then ending (as those terms are defined in the credit agreement). On the last day of each fiscal quarter for the period from July 1, 2005 through December 31, 2005, the maximum ratio remains 6.0 times; on the last day of each fiscal quarter for the period from January 1, 2006 through June 30, 2006, the maximum ratio is 5.75 times; on the last day of each fiscal quarter for the period from July 1, 2006 through December 31, 2006, the maximum ratio is 5.5 times; on the last day of each fiscal quarter for the period from January 1, 2007 through June 30, 2007, the maximum ratio is 5.25 times; on the last day of each fiscal quarter for the period from July 1, 2007 through December 31, 2007, the maximum ratio is 5.0 times; on the last day of each fiscal quarter for all periods after January 1, 2008, the maximum ratio is 4.5 times. |
| Minimum Interest Coverage Ratio. Our consolidated operating cash flow for the four quarters ending on the last day of each quarter must not have been less than 2.0 times the amount of our consolidated cash interest expense for such four quarter period. |
| Minimum Fixed Charge Ratio. Our consolidated operating cash flow for any four consecutive quarters must not be less than 1.1 times the amount of our consolidated fixed charges for such four quarter period. Fixed charges include cash interest expense, cash tax expense, capital expenditures, agency and commitment fees and scheduled principal repayments. |
As of June 30, 2005, we were in compliance with all applicable financial covenants. As of June 30, 2005, as calculated pursuant to the terms of our credit agreement, our consolidated total debt ratio was 4.57 times consolidated operating cash flow, our interest coverage ratio was 4.78 times interest expense, and our fixed charge coverage ratio was 2.12 times fixed charges.
Failure to comply with these financial covenants, to make scheduled interest payments or scheduled principal repayments, or to comply with any other terms of our credit facility could result in the acceleration of the maturity of our debt outstanding thereunder, which could have a material adverse effect on our business or results of operations.
The credit facility also contains other customary restrictive covenants. These covenants limit our ability to:
| incur additional indebtedness and liens; |
| enter into certain investments or joint ventures; |
15
Table of Contents
| consolidate, merge or effect asset sales; |
| enter sale and lease-back transactions; |
| sell or discount accounts receivable; |
| enter into transactions with affiliates or stockholders; or |
| change the nature of our business. |
On June 27, 2005, our credit agreement was amended to, among other things, reduce the rate of interest we pay on each loan made thereunder.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices such as interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and commodity prices. Our primary exposure to market risk is interest rate risk associated with our credit facility. As of June 30, 2005, all of our long-term debt bears interest at variable rates. Accordingly, our earnings are affected by changes in interest rates. Assuming the current level of borrowings at variable rates and assuming a one-percentage point increase in the current interest rate under these borrowings, we estimate that our annualized interest expense would increase by $0.8 million and our net income would decrease by $0.5 million. In the event of an adverse change in interest rates, management may take actions to mitigate our exposure. However, due to the uncertainty of the actions that would be taken and their possible effects, this interest rate analysis assumes no such actions. Further, the analysis does not consider the effects of the change in the level of overall economic activity that could exist in such an environment.
As of June 30, 2005, we have entered into five interest rate swap agreements with a $75.0 million aggregate notional amount. These agreements expire from May to August 2006. As of June 30, 2005, the fair value of these agreements was an asset of $1.2 million.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and, management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
As of June 30, 2005, the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Companys disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.
There has been no significant change in our internal control over financial reporting during our second fiscal quarter of 2005 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

We currently and from time to time are involved in litigation and are the subject of threats of litigation that are incidental to the conduct of our business. These include indecency claims and related proceedings at the FCC as well as claims and threatened claims by private third parties. However, we are not a party to any lawsuit or other proceedings, or the subject of any threatened lawsuit or other proceedings, which, in the opinion of management, is likely to have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.
