Note 1: BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

Preparation of Interim Financial Statements

The consolidated financial statements were prepared by Clear Channel Outdoor Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals and adjustments necessary for adoption of new accounting standards) necessary to present fairly the results of the interim periods shown. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such SEC rules and regulations. Management believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.

The Company became a publicly traded company on November 11, 2005, through an initial public offering (“IPO”), in which it sold 10% of its common stock, or 35.0 million shares of Class A common stock. Prior to the IPO, the Company was an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Clear Channel Communications. Clear Channel Communications currently owns all outstanding shares of the Company’s Class B common stock, representing approximately 89% of the outstanding shares of common stock and approximately 99% of the total voting power of common stock.

Due to seasonality and other factors, the results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. The financial statements contained herein should be read in conjunction with the consolidated and combined financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s 2008 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The Company has evaluated subsequent events through November 9, 2009, the date that these financial statements were issued.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries and give effect to allocations of expenses from Clear Channel Communications, Inc. (“Clear Channel Communications”). These allocations were made on a specifically identifiable basis or using relative percentages of headcount or other methods management considered to be a reasonable reflection of the utilization of services provided. Significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Investments in companies in which the Company owns 20 percent to 50 percent of the voting common stock or otherwise exercises significant influence over operating and financial policies of the Company are accounted for under the equity method.

Clear Channel Communications’ Merger

Clear Channel Communications consummated its merger with a wholly-owned subsidiary of CC Media Holdings, Inc. (“CC Media Holdings”) on July 30, 2008 (the “merger”) and accounted for the merger as a purchase business combination in conformity with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, Business Combinations, and Emerging Issues Task Force Issue 88-16, Basis in Leveraged Buyout Transactions. ASC 805-50-S99-1 requires the application of push down accounting in situations where the ownership of an entity has changed. As a result, the post-merger financial statements of the Company reflect the new basis of accounting. The purchase price allocation was complete as of July 30, 2009 in accordance with ASC 805-10-25, which requires that the allocation period not exceed one year from the date of acquisition.

The accompanying consolidated statements of operations and statements of cash flows are presented for two periods: post-merger and pre-merger. Purchase accounting adjustments pursuant to the aforementioned standards were pushed down to the opening balance sheet of the Company on July 31, 2008, as the merger occurred at the close of business on July 30, 2008. The merger resulted in a new basis of accounting beginning on July 31, 2008 and the financial reporting periods are presented as follows:

The opening balance sheet reflected the preliminary allocation of purchase price, based on available information and certain assumptions management believed were reasonable. During the first seven months of 2009, the Company decreased the initial fair value estimate of its permits, contracts, site leases and other assets and liabilities primarily in its Americas segment by $100.7 million

based on additional information received, which resulted in an increase to goodwill of $55.8 million and a decrease to deferred taxes of $44.9 million. During the third quarter of 2009, the Company recorded a $45.0 million increase to goodwill in its International outdoor segment related to the fair value of certain minority interests recorded pursuant to ASC 480-10-S99, which distinguishes liabilities from equity, and which had no related tax effect. In addition, during the third quarter of 2009, the Company adjusted deferred taxes by $24.5 million to true-up its tax rates in certain jurisdictions that were estimated in the initial purchase price allocation.

Relationship with Clear Channel Communications

There are several agreements which govern the Company’s relationship with Clear Channel Communications, including the Corporate Services Agreement, Employee Matters Agreement and Tax Matters Agreement. Clear Channel Communications has the right to terminate these agreements in various circumstances as long as such termination or amendment complies with restrictions contained in Clear Channel Communications’ credit agreements, where applicable. As of the date of the filing of this report, no notice of termination of any of these agreements has been received from Clear Channel Communications. The terms and conditions of the Company’s agreements with Clear Channel Communications have not changed following the consummation of the merger of Clear Channel Communications. See Note 5 for further discussion.

Liquidity

The Company’s primary source of liquidity is cash flow from operations, which has been adversely affected by the global economic downturn. The risks associated with the Company’s businesses become more acute in periods of a slowing economy or recession, which may be accompanied by a decrease in advertising. Expenditures by advertisers tend to be cyclical, reflecting overall economic conditions and budgeting and buying patterns. The global economic downturn has resulted in a decline in advertising and marketing services among customers, resulting in a decline in advertising revenues across the Company’s businesses. This reduction in advertising revenues has had an adverse effect on revenue, profit margins, cash flow and liquidity. A continuation of the global economic downturn would continue to adversely impact revenue, profit margins, cash flow and liquidity.

Another significant source of the Company’s liquidity is borrowings under the cash management notes with Clear Channel Communications. Clear Channel Communications’ ability to meet its obligations with respect to the “Due from Clear Channel Communications” account and to lend under the cash management note depends on its working capital needs, debt service obligations and its future operating performance and cash flow, which are in turn subject to prevailing economic conditions and other factors, many of which are beyond its control. The inability of Clear Channel Communications to meet its obligations with respect to the “Due from Clear Channel Communications” account could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition and on the Company’s ability to meet its obligations. The cash management notes mature on August 10, 2010. After such date, Clear Channel Communications will continue to provide day-to-day cash management services to the Company pursuant to the Corporate Services Agreement, whereby the Company’s bank accounts are swept daily into accounts of Clear Channel Communications. The net balance as a result of these cash management services will continue to be reflected as “Due from/to Clear Channel Communications” on the balance sheet.

The Company’s $2.5 billion note to Clear Channel Communications matures on August 2, 2010. On June 2, 2009, the Company announced that it is actively pursuing alternatives to address the maturity of the $2.5 billion note to Clear Channel Communications. The alternatives to refinance the $2.5 billion note to Clear Channel Communications may include the use of its cash flow and capital resources, seeking an extension of the maturity of the note, selling assets, seeking additional equity capital, an offering of new senior or senior subordinated notes for cash, an exchange of new senior or subordinated notes for outstanding indebtedness or other transactions.

Management believes that the Company will be successful in obtaining financing due to its long history of strong operating margins and free cash flow generation through its portfolio of diversified products and geographically diverse markets. However, management also believes that new financing would likely carry higher interest rates and may contain more restrictive terms than its current agreements based on prevailing interest rates and current debt capital market conditions. Higher interest rates would reduce the Company’s capital available for investment and growth and terms may restrict, among other things, its ability to invest in its business. The $2.5 billion note and Master Agreement with Clear Channel Communications include restrictive covenants that, among other things, restrict the Company’s ability to incur additional indebtedness. Therefore, any refinancing of the $2.5 billion note must be approved by the parent, Clear Channel Communications, and there is no such assurance that the Company would receive such approval. The Company is pursuing these alternatives which might be unsuccessful or inadequate in permitting it to meet scheduled debt obligations. Additionally, in light of the current credit environment, the Company may be unable to restructure or refinance its obligations and obtain additional equity financing or sell assets on satisfactory terms or at all. As a result, the Company’s inability to meet its debt obligations could cause it to default on those obligations. A default under any debt instrument could, in turn, result in defaults under other debt instruments. Any such defaults could materially impair its financial condition, liquidity and results of operations.

In January 2009, CC Media Holdings announced that it commenced a restructuring program targeting a reduction of fixed costs. The Company recognized approximately $6.6 million and $23.6 million of expenses related to the restructuring program during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, respectively.

The Company expects to be in compliance with the covenants governing its indebtedness in 2009. However, the Company’s anticipated results are subject to significant uncertainty and there can be no assurance that actual results will be in compliance with the covenants. In addition, the Company’s ability to comply with the covenants governing its indebtedness may be affected by events beyond the Company’s control, including prevailing economic, financial and industry conditions.

Furthermore, in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on November 9, 2009, CC Media Holdings, the Company’s indirect parent, stated that it expects to be in compliance with the covenants under Clear Channel Communications’ senior secured credit facilities in 2009. CC Media Holdings similarly stated in such Quarterly Report that its anticipated results are also subject to significant uncertainty and there can be no assurance that actual results will be in compliance with the covenants. Moreover, CC Media Holdings stated in such Quarterly Report that its ability to comply with the covenants in Clear Channel Communications’ financing agreements may be affected by events beyond CC Media Holdings’ control, including prevailing economic, financial and industry conditions. As discussed therein, the breach of any covenants set forth in Clear Channel Communications’ financing agreements would result in a default thereunder, and an event of default would permit the lenders under a defaulted financing agreement to declare all indebtedness thereunder to be due and payable prior to maturity. Moreover, as discussed therein, the lenders under the revolving credit facility under Clear Channel Communications’ senior secured credit facilities would have the option to terminate their commitments to make further extensions of revolving credit thereunder. In addition, CC Media Holdings stated in such Quarterly Report that if CC Media Holdings is unable to repay Clear Channel Communications’ obligations under any senior secured credit facilities or the receivables based credit facility, the lenders under such senior secured credit facilities or receivables based credit facility could proceed against any assets that were pledged to secure such senior secured credit facilities or receivables based credit facility. Finally, CC Media Holdings stated in such Quarterly Report that a default or acceleration under any of Clear Channel Communications’ financing agreements could cause a default under other obligations that are subject to cross-default and cross-acceleration provisions.

For so long as Clear Channel Communications maintains significant control over the Company, a deterioration in the financial condition of Clear Channel Communications could have the effect of increasing the Company’s borrowing costs or impairing the Company’s access to capital markets. Neither the $2.5 billion term note payable to Clear Channel Communications nor the “Due from Clear Channel Communications” note contain in their terms a right of offset. As of September 30, 2009, Clear Channel Communications had $1.4 billion recorded as “Cash and cash equivalents” on its consolidated balance sheets. The $2.5 billion note and Master Agreement with Clear Channel Communications include restrictive covenants that, among other things, restrict the Company’s ability to incur additional indebtedness.

CC Media Holdings’ and Clear Channel Communications’ corporate credit and issue-level ratings were downgraded on June 8, 2009 by Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services. CC Media Holdings’ and Clear Channel Communications’ corporate credit ratings were lowered from “B-” to “CCC”, where they currently remain. The downgrade had no impact on CC Media Holdings’ and Clear Channel Communications’ borrowing costs under the credit agreements.

Impairment Charges

The Company performed an interim impairment test on its indefinite-lived intangible assets as of June 30, 2009 as a result of the global economic downturn and its negative impact on the Company’s business. The industry cash flow forecasts during the first six months of 2009 were below the forecasts used in the discounted cash flow models used to calculate the impairments at December 31, 2008. The estimated fair value of the Company’s permits was below their carrying value, which resulted in a non-cash impairment charge of $345.4 million. See Note 2 for further discussion.

The Company also performed an interim goodwill impairment test as of June 30, 2009. The revenue forecasts for 2009 declined 7% and 9% for the Americas outdoor segment and International outdoor segment, respectively, compared to the forecasts used in the 2008 impairment test primarily as a result of the revenues realized during the first six months of 2009. As a result, the estimated fair value of the reporting units was below their carrying value, which required the Company to compare the implied fair value of each reporting unit’s goodwill with its carrying value. As a result, the Company recognized a non-cash impairment charge of $419.5 million to reduce goodwill. See Note 2 for further discussion.

Additionally, the Company impaired certain contracts in its Americas outdoor and International outdoor segments by $38.8 million. See Note 2 for further discussion.

Share-Based Compensation Cost

Share-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. The following table details compensation costs related to share-based payments for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008:

As of September 30, 2009, there was $18.4 million of unrecognized compensation cost, net of estimated forfeitures, related to unvested share-based compensation arrangements. This cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately two years.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Update No. 2009-05, Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value. The update is to ASC Subtopic 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures-Overall, for the fair value measurement of liabilities. The purpose of this update is to reduce ambiguity in financial reporting when measuring the fair value of liabilities. The guidance provided in this update is effective for the first reporting period beginning after the date of issuance. The Company will adopt the amendment on October 1, 2009 and does not anticipate the adoption to have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 168, The FASB Accounting Standards Codification^TM and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, codified in ASC 105-10, was issued in June 2009. ASC 105-10 identifies the sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles used in the preparation of financial statements of nongovernmental entities that are presented in conformity with GAAP in the United States. ASC 105-10 establishes the ASC as the source of authoritative GAAP recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities. Following this statement, the FASB will issue new standards in the form of Accounting Standards Updates (“ASUs”). ASC 105-10 is effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. The Company adopted the provisions of ASC 105-10 on July 1, 2009.

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 167, Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R) (“Statement No. 167”), which is not yet codified, was issued in June 2009. Statement No. 167 shall be effective as of the beginning of each reporting entity’s first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009, for interim periods within that first annual reporting period, and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. Earlier application is prohibited. Statement No. 167 amends Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 46(R), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, codified in ASC 810-10-25, to replace the quantitative-based risks and rewards calculation for determining which enterprise, if any, has a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity with an approach focused on identifying which enterprise has the power to direct the activities of a variable interest entity that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and (1) the obligation to absorb losses of the entity or (2) the right to receive benefits from the entity. An approach that is expected to be primarily qualitative will be more effective for identifying which enterprise has a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity. Statement No. 167 requires an additional reconsideration event when determining whether an entity is a variable interest entity when any changes in facts and circumstances occur such that the holders of the equity investment at risk, as a group, lose the power from voting rights or similar rights of those investments to direct the activities of the entity that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance. It also requires ongoing assessments of whether an enterprise is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity. These requirements will provide more relevant and timely information to users of financial statements. Statement No. 167 amends ASC 810-10-25 to require additional disclosures about an enterprise’s involvement in variable interest entities, which will enhance the information provided to users of financial statements. The Company will adopt Statement No. 167 on January 1, 2010 and is currently evaluating the impact of adoption.

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 165, Subsequent Events, codified in ASC 855-10, was issued in May 2009. The provisions of ASC 855-10 are effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009 and are intended to establish general

-11-

Table of Contents

standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. ASC 855-10 requires the disclosure of the date through which an entity has evaluated subsequent events and the basis for that date—that is, whether that date represents the date the financial statements were issued or were available to be issued. This disclosure should alert all users of financial statements that an entity has not evaluated subsequent events after that date in the set of financial statements being presented. In accordance with the provisions of ASC 855-10, the Company currently evaluates subsequent events through the date the financial statements are issued.

Financial Accounting Standards Board Staff Position Emerging Issues Task Force 03-6-1, Determining Whether Instruments Granted in Share-Based Payment Transactions Are Participating Securities, codified in ASC 260-10-45, was issued in June 2008. ASC 260-10-45 clarifies that unvested share-based payment awards with a right to receive nonforfeitable dividends are participating securities. Guidance is also provided on how to allocate earnings to participating securities and compute basic earnings per share using the two-class method. All prior-period earnings per share data presented shall be adjusted retrospectively (including interim financial statements, summaries of earnings, and selected financial data) to conform with the provisions of ASC 260-10-45. The Company retrospectively adopted the provisions of ASC 260-10-45 on January 1, 2009. There was no impact of adopting ASC 260-10-45 to previously reported earnings per share for the periods July 31 through September 30, 2008, July 1 through July 30, 2008, and January 1 through July 30, 2008.

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements—an amendment of ARB No. 51, codified in ASC 810-10-45, was issued in December 2007 and clarifies the classification of noncontrolling interests in consolidated statements of financial position and the accounting for and reporting of transactions between the reporting entity and holders of such noncontrolling interests. Under this guidance, noncontrolling interests are considered equity and should be reported as an element of consolidated equity, net income will encompass the total income of all consolidated subsidiaries and there will be separate disclosure on the face of the income statement of the attribution of that income between the controlling and noncontrolling interests, and increases and decreases in the noncontrolling ownership interest amount will be accounted for as equity transactions. The provisions of ASC 810-10-45 are effective for the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008, and earlier application is prohibited. Guidance is required to be adopted prospectively, except for reclassifying noncontrolling interests to equity, separate from the parent’s shareholders’ equity, in the consolidated statement of financial position and recasting consolidated net income (loss) to include net income (loss) attributable to both the controlling and noncontrolling interests, both of which are required to be adopted retrospectively. The Company adopted the provisions of ASC 810-10-45 on January 1, 2009, which resulted in a reclassification of approximately $211.8 million of noncontrolling interests to shareholders’ equity.

ASC 810-10-50-1A requires a reconciliation at the beginning and the end of the period of the carrying amount of total equity, equity attributable to the Company and equity attributable to the noncontrolling interests. The following table presents the changes in equity attributable to the Company and equity attributable to the noncontrolling interests for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008.

Financial Accounting Standards Board Staff Position No. FAS 157-4, Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly, codified in ASC 820-10-35, was issued in April 2009. ASC 820-10-35 provides additional guidance for estimating fair value when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased. ASC 820-10-35 also includes guidance on identifying circumstances that indicate a transaction is not orderly. This guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009, and shall be applied prospectively. Early adoption is permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009. Earlier adoption for periods ending before March 15, 2009 is not permitted. The Company adopted the provisions of ASC 820-10-35 on April 1, 2009 with no material impact to its financial position or results of operations.

Financial Accounting Standards Board Staff Position No. FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2, Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than-Temporary Impairments, codified in ASC 320-10, was issued in April 2009. ASC 320-10 amends the other-than-temporary impairment guidance in U.S. GAAP for debt securities to make the guidance more operational and to improve the presentation and disclosure of other-than-temporary impairments on debt and equity securities in the financial statements. ASC 320-10 does not amend existing recognition and measurement guidance related to other-than-temporary impairments of equity securities. This guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009. Earlier adoption for periods ending before March 15, 2009 is not permitted. The Company adopted the provisions of ASC 320-10 on April 1, 2009 with no material impact to its financial position or results of operations.

Financial Accounting Standards Board Staff Position No. FAS 141(R)-1, Accounting for Assets Acquired and Liabilities Assumed in a Business Combination That Arise from Contingencies, codified in ASC 805-20, was issued in April 2009. ASC 805-20 addresses application issues raised by preparers, auditors, and members of the legal profession on initial recognition and measurement, subsequent measurement and accounting, and disclosure of assets and liabilities arising from contingencies in a business combination. This guidance is effective for assets or liabilities arising from contingencies in business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. The impact of ASC 805-20 on accounting for contingencies in a business combination is dependent upon the nature of future acquisitions.

Financial Accounting Standards Board Staff Position No. FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1, Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments, codified in ASC 825-10, was issued in April 2009. ASC 825-10 amends prior authoritative guidance to require disclosures about fair value of financial instruments for interim reporting periods of publicly traded companies as well as in annual financial statements. The provisions of ASC 825-10 are effective for interim reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009. The Company adopted the disclosure requirements of ASC 825-10 on April 1, 2009.

Financial Accounting Standards Board Staff Position Emerging Issues Task Force 08-6, Equity Method Investment Accounting Considerations, codified in ASC 323-10-35, was issued in November 2008. ASC 323-10-35 clarifies the accounting for certain transactions and impairment considerations involving equity method investments. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years and shall be applied prospectively. The Company adopted the provisions of ASC 323-10-35 on January 1, 2009 with no material impact to its financial position or results of operations.

Note 2: INTANGIBLE ASSETS AND GOODWILL

Definite-lived Intangibles

The Company has definite-lived intangible assets which consist primarily of transit and street furniture contracts and other contractual rights. The Company also has permanent easements that provide the Company the right to operate and access certain of its outdoor displays at specified locations. Definite-lived intangible assets are amortized over the shorter of either the respective lives of the agreements or over the period of time the assets are expected to contribute directly or indirectly to the Company’s future cash flows.

The following table presents the gross carrying amount and accumulated amortization for each major class of definite-lived intangible assets at September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008:

-13-

Table of Contents

Total amortization expense from continuing operations related to definite-lived intangible assets for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 was $75.0 million.

During the first seven months of 2009, the Company decreased the initial fair value estimate of its permits, contracts, site leases and other assets and liabilities in its Americas segment by $100.7 million based on additional information received, which resulted in a credit to amortization expense of approximately $6.9 million.

The Company reviews its definite-lived intangibles for impairment when events and circumstances indicate that amortizable long-lived assets might be impaired and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated from those assets are less than the carrying amount of those assets. When specific assets are determined to be unrecoverable, the cost basis of the asset is reduced to reflect the current fair market value.

The Company uses various assumptions in determining the current fair market value of these assets, including future expected cash flows, industry growth rates and discount rates. Impairment loss calculations require management to apply judgment in estimating future cash flows, including forecasting useful lives of the assets and selecting the discount rate that reflects the risk inherent in future cash flows.

During the second quarter of 2009, the Company recorded a $21.3 million impairment to taxi contracts in its Americas segment and a $17.5 million impairment primarily related to street furniture and billboard contracts in its International segment. The Company determined fair values using a discounted cash flow model. The decline in fair value of the contracts was primarily driven by a decline in the revenue projections. The decline in revenue related to taxi contracts and street furniture and billboard contracts was in the range of 10% to 15%. The balance of these taxi contracts and street furniture and billboard contracts after the impairment charges, for the contracts that were impaired, was $3.3 million and $16.0 million, respectively.

The following table presents the Company’s estimate of amortization expense for each of the five succeeding fiscal years for definite-lived intangible assets:

As acquisitions and dispositions occur in the future, amortization expense may vary.

Indefinite-lived Intangibles

The Company’s indefinite-lived intangibles consist of billboard permits. The Company’s billboard permits are effectively issued in perpetuity by state and local governments as they are transferable or renewable at little or no cost. Permits typically specify the locations at which the Company is allowed to operate an advertising structure. The Company’s permits are located on owned land, leased land or land for which we have acquired permanent easements. In cases where the Company’s permits are located on leased land, the leases typically have initial terms of between 10 to 20 years and renew indefinitely, with rental payments generally escalating at an inflation-based index. If the Company loses its lease, the Company will typically obtain permission to relocate the permit or bank it with the municipality for future use.

The Company does not amortize its billboard permits. The Company tests these indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment at least annually using a direct valuation method. This direct valuation method assumes that rather than acquiring indefinite-lived intangible assets as a part of a going concern business, the buyer hypothetically develops indefinite-lived intangible assets and builds a new operation with similar attributes from scratch. Thus, the buyer incurs start-up costs during the build-up phase which are normally associated with going concern value. Initial capital costs are deducted from the discounted cash flows model which results in value that is directly attributable to the indefinite-lived intangible assets.

The Company performed an interim impairment test on its billboard permits as of December 31, 2008, which resulted in a non-cash impairment charge of $722.6 million. The Company’s cash flows during the first six months of 2009 were below those in the discounted cash flow model used to calculate the impairment at December 31, 2008. As a result, the Company performed an interim impairment test as of June 30, 2009 on its billboard permits resulting in a non-cash impairment charge of $345.4 million.

-14-

Table of Contents

The fair value of the permits was determined using the direct valuation method as prescribed in ASC 805-20-S99. Under the direct valuation method, the fair value of the permits was calculated at the market level as prescribed by ASC 350-30-35. The Company engaged Mesirow Financial Consulting, LLC (“Mesirow Financial”), a third-party valuation firm, to assist it in the development of the assumptions and the Company’s determination of the fair value of its permits. The impairment test consisted of a comparison of the fair value of the permits at the market level with their carrying amount. If the carrying amount of the permits exceeded their fair value, an impairment loss was recognized equal to that excess. After an impairment loss is recognized, the adjusted carrying amount of the permit is its new accounting basis.

The application of the direct valuation method attempts to isolate the income that is properly attributable to the permit alone (that is, apart from tangible and identified intangible assets and goodwill). It is based upon modeling a hypothetical “greenfield” build up to a “normalized” enterprise that, by design, lacks inherent goodwill and whose only other assets have essentially been paid for (or added) as part of the build-up process. The Company forecasted revenue, expenses, and cash flows over a ten-year period for each of its markets in its application of the direct valuation method. The Company also calculated a “normalized” residual year which represents the perpetual cash flows of each market. The residual year cash flow was capitalized to arrive at the terminal value of the permits in each market.

Management uses its internal forecasts to estimate industry normalized information as it believes these forecasts are similar to what a market participant would expect to generate. This is due to the pricing structure and demand for outdoor signage in a market being relatively constant regardless of the owner of the operation. Management also relied on its internal forecasts because there is nominal public data available for each of its markets.

The build-up period represents the time it takes for the hypothetical start-up operation to reach normalized operations in terms of achieving a mature market revenue share and profit margin. Management believes that a one-year build-up period is required for a start-up operation to erect the necessary structures and obtain advertisers in order achieve mature market revenue share. It is estimated that a start-up operation would be able to obtain 10% of the potential revenues in the first year of operations and 100% in the second year. Management assumed industry revenue growth of negative 16% during the build-up period. However, the cost structure is expected to reach the normalized level over three years due to the time required to recognize the synergies and cost savings associated with the ownership of the permits within the market.

For the normalized operating margin in the third year, management assumed a hypothetical business would operate at the lower of the operating margin for the specific market or the industry average margin of 45% based on an analysis of comparable companies. For the first and second year of operations, the operating margin was assumed to be 50% of the “normalized” operating margin. The first and second-year expenses include the non-recurring start-up costs necessary to build the operation (i.e. development of customers, workforce, etc.).

In addition to cash flows during the projection period, a “normalized” residual cash flow was calculated based upon industry-average growth of 3% beyond the discrete build-up projection period. The residual cash flow was then capitalized to arrive at the terminal value.

The present value of the cash flows is calculated using an estimated required rate of return based upon industry-average market conditions. In determining the estimated required rate of return, management calculated a discount rate using both current and historical trends in the industry.

The Company calculated the discount rate as of the valuation date and also one-year, two-year, and three-year historical quarterly averages. The discount rate was calculated by weighting the required returns on interest-bearing debt and common equity capital in proportion to their estimated percentages in an expected capital structure. The capital structure was estimated based on the quarterly average data for publicly traded companies in the outdoor advertising industry.

The calculation of the discount rate required the rate of return on debt, which was based on a review of the credit ratings for comparable companies (i.e., market participants). Management used the yield on a Standard & Poor’s “B” rated corporate bond for the pre-tax rate of return on debt and tax-effected such yield based on applicable tax rates.

The rate of return on equity capital was estimated using a modified Capital Asset Pricing Model (“CAPM”). Inputs to this model included the yield on long-term U.S. Treasury bonds, forecast betas for comparable companies, calculation of a market risk premium based on research and empirical evidence and calculation of a size premium derived from historical differences in returns between small companies and large companies using data published by Ibbotson Associates.

The concluded discount rate used in the discounted cash flow models to determine the fair value of the permits was 10%. Applying the discount rate, the present value of cash flows during the discrete projection period and terminal value were added to estimate the

fair value of the hypothetical start-up operation. The initial capital investment was subtracted to arrive at the value of the permits. The initial capital investment represents the fixed assets needed to erect the necessary advertising structures.

The discount rate used in the impairment model increased approximately 50 basis points over the discount rate used to value the permits at December 31, 2008. Industry revenue forecasts declined 8% through 2013 compared to the forecasts used in the 2008 impairment test. These market driven changes were primarily responsible for the decline in fair value of the billboard permits below their carrying value. As a result, the Company recognized a non-cash impairment charge in all but five of its markets in the United States and Canada, which totaled $345.4 million. The fair value of the permits was $1.1 billion at June 30, 2009.

Goodwill

The following table presents the changes in the carrying amount of goodwill in each of the Company’s reportable segments:

The Company performed an interim impairment test as of December 31, 2008 which resulted in a non-cash impairment charge of $2.5 billion to reduce its goodwill. The goodwill impairment test is a two-step process. The first step, used to screen for potential impairment, compares the fair value of the reporting unit with its carrying amount, including goodwill. The second step, used to measure the amount of the impairment loss, compares the implied fair value of the reporting unit goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill.

Each of the Company’s U.S. outdoor advertising markets is a component. The U.S. outdoor advertising markets are aggregated into a single reporting unit for purposes of the goodwill impairment test using the guidance in ASC 350-20-55. The Company also determined that in its Americas segment, Canada, Mexico, Peru, and Brazil constitute separate reporting units and each country in its International segment constitutes a separate reporting unit.

The Company’s reporting units are valued using a discounted cash flow model which requires estimating future cash flows expected to be generated from the reporting unit, discounted to their present value using a risk-adjusted discount rate. Terminal values were also estimated and discounted to their present value. Assessing the recoverability of goodwill requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions about sales, operating margins, growth rates and discount rates based on its budgets, business plans, economic projections, anticipated future cash flows and marketplace data. There are inherent uncertainties related to these factors and management’s judgment in applying these factors. The Company engaged Mesirow Financial, a third-party valuation firm, to assist the Company in the development of these assumptions and the Company’s determination of the fair value of its reporting units.

The Company tests goodwill at interim dates if events or changes in circumstances indicate that goodwill might be impaired. The Company’s cash flows during the first six months of 2009 were below those used in the discounted cash flow model used to calculate the impairment at December 31, 2008. Additionally, the fair value of the Company’s debt and equity at June 30, 2009 declined from

-16-

Table of Contents

the values at December 31, 2008. As a result of these indicators, the Company performed an interim goodwill impairment test as of June 30, 2009, which resulted in a non-cash impairment charge of $419.5 million.

The discounted cash flow model indicated that the Company failed the first step of the impairment test for certain of its reporting units, which required it to compare the implied fair value of each reporting unit’s goodwill with its carrying value.

The discounted cash flow approach the Company uses for valuing goodwill involves estimating future cash flows expected to be generated from the related assets, discounted to their present value using a risk-adjusted discount rate. Terminal values are also estimated and discounted to their present value.

The Company forecasted revenue, expenses, and cash flows over a ten-year period for each of its reporting units. In projecting future cash flows, the Company considers a variety of factors including its historical growth rates, macroeconomic conditions, advertising sector and industry trends as well as Company-specific information. Historically, revenues in its industries have been highly correlated to economic cycles. Based on these considerations, the assumed 2009 revenue growth rates were negative followed by assumed revenue growth with an anticipated economic recovery in 2010. To arrive at the projected cash flows and resulting growth rates, the Company evaluated its historical operating results, current management initiatives and both historical and anticipated industry results to assess the reasonableness of the operating margin assumptions. The Company also calculated a “normalized” residual year which represents the perpetual cash flows of each reporting unit. The residual year cash flow was capitalized to arrive at the terminal value of the reporting unit.

The Company calculated the weighted average cost of capital (“WACC”) as of June 30, 2009 and also one-year, two-year, and three-year historical quarterly averages for each of its reporting units. WACC is an overall rate based upon the individual rates of return for invested capital (equity and interest-bearing debt). The WACC is calculated by weighting the required returns on interest-bearing debt and common equity capital in proportion to their estimated percentages in an expected capital structure. The capital structure was estimated based on the quarterly average data for publicly traded companies in the outdoor advertising industry. The calculation of the WACCs considered both current industry WACCs and historical trends in the industry.

The calculation of the WACC requires the rate of return on debt, which was based on a review of the credit ratings for comparable companies (i.e. market participants) and the indicated yield on similarly rated bonds.

The rate of return on equity capital was estimated using a modified CAPM. Inputs to this model included the yield on long-term U.S. Treasury bonds, forecast betas for comparable companies, calculation of a market risk premium based on research and empirical evidence and calculation of a size premium derived from historical differences in returns between small companies and large companies using data published by Ibbotson Associates.

In line with advertising industry trends, the Company’s operations and expected cash flow are subject to significant uncertainties about future developments, including timing and severity of the recessionary trends and customers’ behaviors. To address these risks, the Company included company-specific risk premiums for each of the reporting units in the estimated WACC. Based on this analysis, company-specific risk premiums of 250 basis points and 350 basis points were included for Americas and International, respectively, resulting in WACCs of 12.5% and 13.5% for each of the reporting units in the Americas and International segments, respectively. Applying these WACCs, the present value of cash flows during the discrete projection period and terminal value were added to estimate the fair value of the reporting units.

The discount rate utilized in the valuation of the permits as of June 30, 2009 excludes the company-specific risk premiums that were added to the industry WACCs used in the valuation of the reporting units. Management believes the exclusion of this premium is appropriate given the difference between the nature of the billboard permits and reporting unit cash flow projections. The cash flow projections utilized under the direct valuation method for the permits are derived from utilizing industry “normalized” information for the existing portfolio of permits. Given that the underlying cash flow projections are based on industry normalized information, application of an industry average discount rate is appropriate. Conversely, the cash flow projections for the overall reporting unit are based on its internal forecasts for each business and incorporate future growth and initiatives unrelated to the existing permit portfolio. Additionally, the projections for the reporting unit include cash flows related to non-permit based assets. In the valuation of the reporting unit, the company-specific risk premiums were added to the industry WACCs due to the risks inherent in achieving the projected cash flows of the reporting unit.

The Company also utilized the market approach to provide a test of reasonableness to the results of the discounted cash flow model. The market approach indicates the fair value of the invested capital of a business based on a company’s market capitalization (if publicly traded) and a comparison of the business to comparable publicly traded companies and transactions in its industry. This approach can be estimated through the quoted market price method, the market comparable method, and the market transaction method.

-17-

Table of Contents

One indication of the fair value of a business is the quoted market price in active markets for the debt and equity of the business. The quoted market price of equity multiplied by the number of shares outstanding yields the fair value of the equity of a business on a marketable, noncontrolling basis. A premium for control is then applied and added to the estimated fair value of interest-bearing debt to indicate the fair value of the invested capital of the business on a marketable, controlling basis.

The market comparable method provides an indication of the fair value of the invested capital of a business by comparing it to publicly traded companies in similar lines of business. The conditions and prospects of companies in similar lines of business depend on common factors such as overall demand for their products and services. An analysis of the market multiples of companies engaged in similar lines of business yields insight into investor perceptions and, therefore, the value of the subject business. These multiples are then applied to the operating results of the subject business to estimate the fair value of the invested capital on a marketable, noncontrolling basis. The Company then applies a premium for control to indicate the fair value of the business on a marketable, controlling basis.

The market transaction method estimates the fair value of the invested capital of a business based on exchange prices in actual transactions and on asking prices for controlling interests in similar companies recently offered for sale. This process involves comparison and correlation of the subject business with other similar companies that have recently been purchased. Considerations such as location, time of sale, physical characteristics, and conditions of sale are analyzed for comparable businesses.

The three variations of the market approach indicated that the fair value determined by the Company’s discounted cash flow model was within a reasonable range of outcomes.

The revenue forecasts for 2009 declined 7% and 9% for certain reporting units compared to the forecasts used in the 2008 impairment test primarily as a result of the revenues realized during the first six months of 2009. These market driven changes were primarily responsible for the decline in fair value of the Company’s reporting units below their carrying value. As a result, the Company recognized a non-cash impairment charge to reduce its goodwill of $419.5 million at June 30, 2009.

Note 3: OTHER DEVELOPMENTS

Acquisitions

During the nine months ended September 30, 2009, the Company’s Americas segment paid $5.0 million primarily for the acquisition of land and buildings. In addition, during the first nine months of 2009, the Company’s Americas segment purchased the remaining 15% interest in its consolidated subsidiary, Paneles Napsa S.A., for $13.0 million and the Company’s International segment acquired an additional 5% interest in its consolidated subsidiary, Clear Channel Jolly Pubblicita SPA, for $12.1 million.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2008, the Company’s Americas segment paid $53.1 million for the acquisition of advertising structures and earnout payments for Interspace Airport Advertising. The Company’s International segment paid $51.7 million related to the acquisition of additional equity interests in outdoor companies.

Disposition of Assets

During the nine months ended September 30, 2009, the Company sold assets for $5.5 million in the International segment resulting in a gain of $4.4 million included in “Other operating income – net.” In addition, the Company sold assets for $5.2 million in the Americas segment and recorded a gain of $3.7 million in “Other operating income – net.”

During the nine months ended September 30, 2008, the Company exchanged assets in one of its Americas markets for assets located in a different market and recognized a gain of $2.6 million in “Gain on disposition of assets – net.” In addition, the Company sold its 50% interest in Clear Channel Independent, a South African outdoor advertising company, and recognized a gain of $75.6 million in “Equity in earnings of nonconsolidated affiliates” based on the fair value of the equity securities received as consideration. The Company classified these equity securities as available-for-sale on its consolidated balance sheet in accordance with ASC Topic 320, Investments – Debt and Equity Securities.

Effective Tax Rates

The Company’s effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 was (47.7%) and 11.1%, respectively. The 2009 effective rates were impacted primarily due to the fact that the Company did not record tax benefits on net losses generated in the current period. Due to uncertainty on future taxable income and limitations on net operating loss carryback claims allowed, the Company cannot realize deferred tax assets which arose in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009. Pursuant to the provisions of ASC 740-10-30, deferred tax valuation allowances are

-18-

Table of Contents

required on those deferred tax assets. Additionally, the effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 was impacted by the impairment charge on goodwill recorded in the second quarter 2009, which is not deductible for tax purposes.

The Company’s effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008 was 35.7% and 23.8%, respectively. The effective rates for 2008 were favorably impacted by the nonrecognition of tax on the $75.6 million gain recognized from the sale of the Company’s 50% interest in Clear Channel Independent, a South African outdoor advertising company.

Legal Proceedings

The Company is currently involved in certain legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business and, as required, has accrued its estimate of the probable costs for the resolution of these claims. These estimates have been developed in consultation with counsel and are based upon an analysis of potential results, assuming a combination of litigation and settlement strategies. It is possible, however, that future results of operations for any particular period could be materially affected by changes in the Company’s assumptions or the effectiveness of its strategies related to these proceedings.

Available-for-sale Marketable Equity Securities

The Company holds available-for-sale marketable equity securities classified in accordance with the provisions of ASC 320-10. These marketable equity securities are measured at fair value on each reporting date using quoted prices in active markets. Due to the fact that the inputs used to measure the marketable equity securities at fair value are observable, the Company has categorized the fair value measurements of the securities as Level 1. The Company records its investments in these available-for-sale marketable equity securities on the balance sheet as “Other Investments.”

The unamortized cost, unrealized holding gains or losses, and fair value of the Company’s investments at September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008 are as follows:

The Company’s available-for-sale equity security, Independent News & Media PLC (“INM”), was in an unrealized loss position for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. As a result, the Company considered the guidance in ASC 320-10-S99 and reviewed the length of the time and the extent to which the market value was less than cost and the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer. After this assessment, the Company concluded that the impairment was other than temporary and recorded an $11.3 million impairment in “Loss on marketable securities.”

Note 4: COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Certain agreements relating to acquisitions provide for purchase price adjustments and other future contingent payments based on the financial performance of the acquired companies. For acquisitions completed prior to the adoption of the provisions of ASC 805-10, the Company will continue to accrue additional amounts related to such contingent payments if and when it is determinable that the applicable financial performance targets will be met. The aggregate of these contingent payments, if performance targets are met, would not significantly impact the financial position or results of operations of the Company. For acquisitions completed following the adoption of the provisions of ASC 805-10, the Company accounts for these payments based on the guidance in ASC 805-20, which clarifies the accounting treatment for assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination that arise from contingencies.

As discussed in Note 3, there are various lawsuits and claims pending against the Company. Based on current assumptions, the Company has accrued its estimate of the probable costs for the resolution of these claims. It is possible, however, that future results of operations for any particular period could be materially affected by changes in the Company’s assumptions or the effectiveness of its strategies related to these proceedings.

As of September 30, 2009, Clear Channel Communications had outstanding commercial standby letters of credit and surety bonds of $79.8 million and $44.0 million, respectively, held on behalf of the Company. These letters of credit and surety bonds relate to various operational matters, including insurance, bid and performance bonds, as well as other items.

Note 5: RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

As part of the day-to-day cash management services provided by Clear Channel Communications, the Company maintains accounts that represent net amounts due to or from Clear Channel Communications, which is recorded as “Due from/to Clear Channel Communications” on the consolidated balance sheet. The accounts represent the revolving promissory note issued by the Company to Clear Channel Communications and the revolving promissory note issued by Clear Channel Communications to the Company, in the face amount of $1.0 billion, or if more or less than such amount, the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all advances. Both of these revolving promissory notes mature on August 10, 2010. The accounts accrue interest pursuant to the terms of the promissory notes and are generally payable on demand. Interest on the cash management note owed by the Company accrues on the daily net negative cash position based upon LIBOR plus a margin. Interest on the cash management note owed by Clear Channel Communications accrues on the daily net positive cash position based upon the average one-month generic treasury bill rate. Included in the accounts are the net activities resulting from day-to-day cash management services provided by Clear Channel Communications. As a part of these services, the Company maintains collection bank accounts swept daily into accounts of Clear Channel Communications. In return, Clear Channel Communications funds the Company’s controlled disbursement accounts as checks or electronic payments are presented for payment. The Company’s claim in relation to cash transferred from its concentration account is on an unsecured basis and is limited to the balance of the “Due from Clear Channel Communications” account. The Company is an unsecured creditor of Clear Channel Communications with respect to the revolving promissory note issued by Clear Channel Communications to the Company. At September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, the asset recorded in “Due from Clear Channel Communications” on the consolidated balance sheet was $529.0 million and $431.6 million, respectively.

The cash management note the Company has recorded as “Due from Clear Channel Communications” is an unsecured obligation of Clear Channel Communications. There is no observable market data on which to estimate the fair value of the cash management note.

The net interest income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 was $0.1 million and $0.4 million, respectively. The net interest income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008 was $1.2 million and $3.4 million, respectively. At September 30, 2009 and 2008, the interest rate on the “Due from Clear Channel Communications” account was 0.056% and 0.840%, respectively, which represents the average one-month generic treasury bill rate as described above.

The Company has a note in the original principal amount of $2.5 billion to Clear Channel Communications which matures on August 2, 2010, and may be prepaid in whole at any time, or in part from time to time. This note accrues interest at a variable per annum rate equal to the weighted average cost of debt for Clear Channel Communications, calculated on a monthly basis. This note is mandatorily payable upon a change of control of the Company (as defined in the note) and, subject to certain exceptions, all net proceeds from debt or equity raised by the Company must be used to prepay such note. At September 30, 2009, the interest rate on the $2.5 billion note was 5.7%.

The Company’s $2.5 billion note payable to Clear Channel Communications is intercompany indebtedness and neither it nor the Company has public debt ratings or observable market pricing information. As a result, the Company is not able to estimate the fair value of the note. Were the Company to obtain its own financing independent of Clear Channel Communications, it believes that the rate of interest on such indebtedness would be higher than its current rate.

For so long as Clear Channel Communications maintains significant control over the Company, a deterioration in the financial condition of Clear Channel Communications could have the effect of increasing the Company’s borrowing costs or impairing the Company’s access to capital markets. Clear Channel Communications’ ability to meet its obligations with respect to the “Due from Clear Channel Communications” account depends on its working capital needs, debt service obligations and its future operating performance and cash flow, which are in turn subject to prevailing economic conditions and other factors, many of which are beyond its control. The inability of Clear Channel Communications to meet its obligations with respect to the “Due from Clear Channel Communications” account could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition and on the Company’s ability to meet its obligations. Neither the $2.5 billion term note payable to Clear Channel Communications nor the “Due from Clear Channel Communications” note contain in their terms a right of offset. As of September 30, 2009, Clear Channel Communications had $1.4 billion recorded as “Cash and cash equivalents” on its consolidated balance sheets.

Clear Channel Communications has a $2.0 billion multi-currency revolving credit facility with a maturity in July 2014 which includes a $150.0 million sub-limit that certain of the Company’s International subsidiaries may borrow against to the extent Clear Channel Communications has not already borrowed against this capacity and is compliant with its covenants under the revolving credit facility. On February 6, 2009, Clear Channel Communications borrowed the remaining availability under its $2.0 billion revolving credit facility, including the remaining availability under the $150.0 million sub-limit.

For the post-merger period from July 31, 2008 through September 30, 2008, the Company recorded $5.3 million as a component of corporate expense for these services.

Pursuant to the Tax Matters Agreement between Clear Channel Communications and the Company, the operations of the Company are included in a consolidated federal income tax return filed by Clear Channel Communications. The Company’s provision for income taxes has been computed on the basis that the Company files separate consolidated federal income tax returns with its subsidiaries. Tax payments are made to Clear Channel Communications on the basis of the Company’s separate taxable income. Tax benefits recognized on the Company’s employee stock option exercises are retained by the Company.

The Company computes its deferred income tax provision using the liability method in accordance with ASC 740-10-30, as if the Company was a separate taxpayer. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between financial reporting bases and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the periods in which the deferred tax asset or liability is expected to be realized or settled. Deferred tax assets are reduced by valuation allowances if the Company believes it is more likely than not some portion or all of the asset will not be realized.

Pursuant to the Employee Matters Agreement and following the consummation of the merger of Clear Channel Communications, the Company’s employees participate in CC Media Holdings’ employee benefit plans, including employee medical insurance and a 401(k) retirement benefit plan. These costs are recorded as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses and were approximately $2.2 million and $7.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, respectively. These costs were approximately $6.7 million for the pre-merger period from January 1, 2008 through July 30, 2008, $0.9 million for the pre-merger period from July 1, 2008 through July 30, 2008, and $1.9 million for the post-merger period from July 31, 2008 through September 30, 2008.

Note 6: SEGMENT DATA

The Company has two reportable segments, which it believes best reflects how the Company is currently managed – Americas and International. The Americas segment primarily includes operations in the United States, Canada and Latin America, and the International segment includes operations in primarily Europe, Asia and Australia. Share-based payments are recorded by each segment in direct operating expenses and selling, general and administrative expenses.

The following table presents the Company’s operating segment results for the post-merger three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, and for the post-merger period from July 31 through September 30, 2008, the pre-merger period from July 1 through July 30, 2008, and the pre-merger period from January 1 through July 30, 2008.
