Forward-Looking Statements

This document contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act. All statements other than statements of historical fact are “forward-looking statements” for purposes of federal and state securities laws, including, but not limited to, any projections of earnings, revenue 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,” “could,” “will,” “estimate,” “intend,” “continue,” “believe,” “expect”, “anticipate”, “hope” or other similar words. These forward-looking statements present our estimates and assumptions only as of the date of this report. Except for our ongoing obligation to disclose material information as required by the federal securities laws, we do not intend, and undertake no obligation, to update any forward-looking statement.

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 inherent risks and uncertainties. Some of the key factors impacting these risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to:

•

risks related to our substantial indebtedness or our ability to raise capital;

•

provisions of our debt instruments, including the agreement dated as of November 30, 2017, as amended as of April 30, 2019, or the 2017 Credit Agreement, which governs our current credit facility, or the 2017 Credit Facility, the terms of which restrict certain aspects of the operation of our business;

•

our continued compliance with all of our obligations under the 2017 Credit Agreement;

•

cancellations or reductions of advertising due to the then current economic environment or otherwise;

•

advertising rates remaining constant or decreasing;

•

rapid changes in digital advertising;

•

the impact of rigorous competition in Spanish-language media and in the advertising industry generally;

•

the impact of changing preferences, if any, among U.S. Hispanic audiences for Spanish-language programming, especially among younger age groups;

•

the impact of changing preferences, if any, among audiences favoring newer forms of media over traditional media, such as television and radio;

•

the ability to keep up with rapid technological and other changes, and compete effectively, in new forms of media, including digital media, and changes within digital media;

•

the possible impact on our business as a result of changes in the way market share is measured by third parties;

•

our relationship with Univision Communications Inc., or Univision;

•

the extent to which we continue to generate revenue under retransmission consent agreements;

•

subject to restrictions contained in the 2017 Credit Agreement, the overall success of our acquisition strategy and the integration of any acquired assets with our existing operations;

•

our ability to implement effective internal controls to address the material weakness identified in this report;

•

industry-wide market factors and regulatory and other developments affecting our operations;

•

the ability to manage our growth effectively, including having adequate personnel and other resources for both operational and administrative functions;

•

general economic uncertainty, whether as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic or otherwise;

•

current and longer-term economic and other impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on our operations, results of operations and financial condition, including without limitation our advertisers’ response to the pandemic and resulting economic disruptions caused by lockdown, shelter-in-place, stay-at-home or similar orders instituted as a result of the pandemic;

•

the impact of any potential future impairment of our assets;

•

risks related to changes in accounting interpretations;

•

consequences of, and uncertainties regarding, foreign currency exchange including fluctuations thereto from time to time;

•

legal, political and other risks associated with our operations located outside the United States; and

•

the effect of changes in broadcast transmission standards by the Advanced Television Systems Committee's 3.0 standard (“ATSC 3.0”), as they are adopted in the broadcast industry and as they may impact our ability to monetize our spectrum assets.

For a detailed description of these and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statement, please see the section entitled “Risk Factors,” beginning on page 31 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 and beginning on page 42 of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2020.

2. THE COMPANY AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Nature of Business

The Company is a leading global media company that, through its television and radio segments, reaches and engages U.S. Hispanics across acculturation levels and media channels. Additionally, the Company’s digital segment, located primarily in Spain, Mexico, Argentina and other countries in Latin America, reaches a global market. Entravision’s operations encompass integrated marketing and media solutions, comprised of television, radio, and digital properties and data analytics services. The Company’s management has determined that the Company operates in three reportable segments as of June 30, 2020, based upon the type of advertising medium, which segments are television, radio and digital. As of June 30, 2020, the Company owns and/or operates 54 primary television stations located primarily in California, Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Kansas, Massachusetts, Nevada, New Mexico, Texas and Washington, D.C. The Company’s television operations comprise the largest affiliate group of both the top-ranked primary television network of Univision Communications Inc. (“Univision”) and Univision’s UniMás network. The television segment includes revenue generated from advertising, retransmission consent agreements and the monetization of the Company’s spectrum assets. Radio operations consist of 49 operational radio stations, 38 FM and 11 AM, in 16 markets located in Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Nevada, New Mexico and Texas. Entravision also sells advertisements and syndicate radio programming to more than 100 markets across the United States. The Company operates proprietary technology and data platforms that deliver digital advertising in various advertising formats that allow advertisers to reach audiences across a wide range of Internet-connected devices on its owned and operated digital media sites; the digital media sites of its publisher partners; and on other digital media sites it can access through third-party platforms and exchanges.

The Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on the Company’s Business

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization (the “WHO”) declared COVID-19 a pandemic. On March 13, 2020, a Presidential proclamation was issued declaring a national emergency in the United States as a result of COVID-19.

The COVID-19 pandemic has affected the Company’s business and, subject to the extent and duration of the pandemic and the continuing economic crisis that has resulted from the pandemic, is anticipated to continue to affect the Company’s business, from both an operational and financial perspective, in future periods.

In the quarter ended June 30, 2020, as the global, U.S. and local economies declined dramatically as a result of lockdown, shelter-in-place and stay-at-home or similar orders, the Company experienced a continuation of the significant cancellations of advertising and a significant decrease in new advertising placements in its television segment and especially its radio segment that the Company had begun to experience during the last half of March 2020. The impact on the Company’s radio segment was significantly greater than on its television segment because radio audiences declined at a much greater rate as a result of fewer people commuting to work or driving in general as a result of lockdown, shelter-in-place, stay-at-home or similar orders throughout the United States that were in effect broadly for most of the quarter ended June 30, 2020.

To partially address this situation, the Company has significantly reduced some of its advertising rates, primarily in its radio segment. The Company has also eased credit terms for certain of its advertising clients to help them manage their own cash flow and address other financial needs.

The Company has engaged in a small number of layoffs and significant number of furloughs of employees as a result of the pandemic, primarily during the quarter ended March 31, 2020 and early in the quarter ended June 30, 2020. The Company will continue to monitor this situation closely and may institute such further layoffs or furloughs as it may feel are appropriate at a future date. It is unclear when the Company may reintroduce furloughed employees to active employment, but this will depend, at least in significant part, on substantial improvement in economic conditions as a whole, as well as the Company’s own results of operations, to pre-pandemic or close to pre-pandemic levels. The Company has elected to defer the employer portion of the social security payroll tax (6.2%) as outlined within the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act of 2020, commonly known as the CARES Act. The deferral is effective from March 27, 2020 through December 31, 2020. The deferred amount will be paid in two installments and the amount will be considered timely paid if 50% of the deferred amount is paid by December 31, 2021 and the remainder by December 31, 2022. The Company is also reviewing the possibility of applying for some relief under the CARES Act with respect to its furloughed employees, but it has not done so yet and no decision has been made if it will apply for any such relief.

In order to preserve cash during this period, the Company has instituted certain cost reduction measures. On March 26, 2020, the Company suspended repurchases under its share repurchase program. Effective April 16, 2020, the Company instituted a 2.5%-22.5% reduction in salaries company-wide, depending on the amount of then-current compensation. Effective May 16, 2020, the Company suspended company matching of employee contributions to their 401(k) retirement plans. The Company also reduced its dividend by 50% in the present quarter and may consider doing so in future periods. Additionally, effective May 28, 2020, the Board of Directors decreased its annual non-employee director fees by 20% for the Board year ending at the 2021 shareholders meeting. The Company will continue to monitor all of these actions closely in light of current and changing conditions and may institute such additional actions as it may feel are appropriate at a future date.

The Company believes that its liquidity and capital resources remain adequate and that it can meet current expenses for at least the next twelve months from a combination of cash on hand and cash flows from operations.

Restricted Cash

As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company’s balance sheet includes $0.7 million in restricted cash, which was deposited into a separate account as collateral for the Company’s letters of credit.

Related Party

Substantially all of the Company’s stations are Univision- or UniMás-affiliated television stations. The network affiliation agreement with Univision provides certain of the Company’s owned stations the exclusive right to broadcast Univision’s primary network and UniMás network programming in their respective markets. Under the network affiliation agreement, the Company retains the right to sell no less than four minutes per hour of the available advertising time on stations that broadcast Univision network programming, and the right to sell approximately four and a half minutes per hour of the available advertising time on stations that broadcast UniMás network programming, subject to adjustment from time to time by Univision.

Under the network affiliation agreement, Univision acts as the Company’s exclusive third-party sales representative for the sale of certain national advertising on the Univision- and UniMás-affiliate television stations, and the Company pays certain sales representation fees to Univision relating to sales of all advertising for broadcast on its Univision- and UniMás-affiliate television stations. During the three-month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the amount the Company paid Univision in this capacity was $1.4 million and $2.0 million, respectively. During the six-month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the amount the Company paid Univision in this capacity was $3.6 and $4.0 million, respectively.

The Company also generates revenue under two marketing and sales agreements with Univision, which give it the right to manage the marketing and sales operations of Univision-owned Univision affiliates in six markets – Albuquerque, Boston, Denver, Orlando, Tampa and Washington, D.C.

Under the Company’s proxy agreement with Univision, the Company grants Univision the right to negotiate the terms of retransmission consent agreements for its Univision- and UniMás-affiliated television station signals. Among other things, the proxy agreement provides terms relating to compensation to be paid to the Company by Univision with respect to retransmission consent agreements entered into with multichannel video programming distributors, (“MVPDs”). As of June 30, 2020, the amount due to the Company from Univision was $6.5 million related to the agreements for the carriage of its Univision and UniMás-affiliated television station signals. During the three-month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, retransmission consent revenue accounted for approximately $9.4 and $9.1 million, respectively, of which $6.8 million and $7.0 million, respectively, relate to the Univision proxy agreement. During the six-month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, retransmission consent revenue accounted for approximately $18.9 million and $17.8 million, respectively, of which $13.8 million and $13.7 million, respectively, relate to the Univision proxy agreement. The term of the proxy agreement extends with respect to any MVPD for the length of the term of any retransmission consent agreement in effect before the expiration of the proxy agreement.

Univision currently owns approximately 11% of the Company’s common stock on a fully-converted basis. The Company’s Class U common stock, all of which is held by Univision, has limited voting rights and does not include the right to elect directors. Each share of Class U common stock is automatically convertible into one share of the Company’s Class A common stock (subject to adjustment for stock splits, dividends or combinations) in connection with any transfer of such shares of Class U common stock to a third party that is not an affiliate of Univision. In addition, as the holder of all of the Company’s issued and outstanding Class U common stock, so long as Univision holds a certain number of shares of Class U common stock, the Company may not, without the consent of Univision, merge, consolidate or enter into a business combination, dissolve or liquidate the Company or dispose of any interest in any FCC license with respect to television stations which are affiliates of Univision, among other things.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company measures all stock-based awards using a fair value method and recognizes the related stock-based compensation expense in the consolidated financial statements over the requisite service period. As stock-based compensation expense recognized in the Company’s consolidated financial statements is based on awards ultimately expected to vest, it has been reduced for estimated forfeitures.

Stock-based compensation expense related to grants of stock options and restricted stock units was $0.8 million for each of the three-month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019. Stock-based compensation expense related to grants of stock options and restricted stock units was $1.6 million for each of the six-month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019.

Stock Options

Stock-based compensation expense related to stock options is based on the fair value on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and is amortized over the vesting period, generally between 1 to 4 years.

As of June 30, 2020, there was no stock-based compensation expense related to grants of stock options. All grants of stock options have been fully expensed.

Restricted Stock Units

Stock-based compensation expense related to restricted stock units is based on the fair value of the Company’s stock price on the date of grant and is amortized over the vesting period, generally between 1 to 4 years.

The following is a summary of non-vested restricted stock units granted (in thousands, except grant date fair value data):



	Six-Month Period
	Ended June 30, 2020
	Number Granted		Weighted Average Fair Value
Restricted stock units		287	$	1.67

As of June 30, 2020, there was approximately $2.7 million of total unrecognized compensation expense related to grants of restricted stock units that is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.3 years.

Income (Loss) Per Share

The following table illustrates the reconciliation of the basic and diluted income (loss) per share computations required by Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 260-10, “Earnings per Share” (in thousands, except share and per share data):

	Three-Month Period					Six-Month Period
	Ended June 30,					Ended June 30,
	2020		2019			2020			2019
Basic earnings per share:
Numerator:
Net income (loss)	$	2,338	$	(16,279	)	$	(33,254	)	$	(14,855	)

Denominator:
Weighted average common shares outstanding		84,123,530		85,359,998			84,220,649			85,728,820

Per share:
Net income (loss) per share	$	0.03	$	(0.19	)	$	(0.39	)	$	(0.17	)

Diluted earnings per share:
Numerator:
Net income (loss)	$	2,338	$	(16,279	)	$	(33,254	)	$	(14,855	)

Denominator:
Weighted average common shares outstanding		84,123,530		85,359,998			84,220,649			85,728,820
Dilutive securities:
Stock options and restricted stock units		545,720		-			-			-
Diluted shares outstanding		84,669,250		85,359,998			84,220,649			85,728,820

Per share:
Net income (loss) per share	$	0.03	$	(0.19	)	$	(0.39	)	$	(0.17	)

Basic income (loss) per share is computed as net income (loss) divided by the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the period. Diluted income (loss) per share reflects the potential dilution, if any, that could occur from shares issuable through stock options and restricted stock awards.

For the three-month period ended June 30, 2020, a total of 519,690 shares of dilutive securities were not included in the computation of diluted income per share because the exercise prices of the dilutive securities were greater than the average market price of the common shares. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2020, all dilutive securities have been excluded as their inclusion would have had an antidilutive effect on loss per share. The number of securities whose conversion would result in an incremental number of shares that would be included in determining the weighted average shares outstanding for diluted earnings per share if their effect was not antidilutive was 602,774 equivalent shares of dilutive securities for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020.

For the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2019, all dilutive securities have been excluded as their inclusion would have had an antidilutive effect on loss per share. The number of securities whose conversion would result in an incremental number of shares that would be included in determining the weighted average shares outstanding for diluted earnings per share if their effect was not antidilutive was 952,026 and 1,001,636 equivalent shares of dilutive securities for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2019, respectively.

Impairment

The Company has identified each of its three operating segments to be separate reporting units: television, radio and digital. The carrying values of the reporting units are determined by allocating all applicable assets (including goodwill) and liabilities based upon the unit in which the assets are employed and to which the liabilities relate, considering the methodologies utilized to determine the fair value of the reporting units.

Goodwill and indefinite life intangibles are not amortized but are tested annually for impairment, or more frequently, if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the assets might be impaired. The annual testing date is October 1. As noted in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company recorded impairment charges of goodwill in its digital reporting unit totaling $27.7 million during the year ended December 31, 2019. In addition, the Company recorded impairment charges of FCC licenses in its television and radio reporting units in the amount of $4.0 million and $0.2 million, respectively, during the year ended December 31, 2019.

Due to the continuing economic crisis resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company experienced a decline in performance across all its reporting units beginning late in the first quarter of 2020. Additionally, the digital reporting unit was already facing declining results prior to the onset of the pandemic, caused by continuing competitive pressures and rapid changes in the digital advertising industry, which then further accelerated late in the quarter as a result of the economic crisis brought about from the pandemic. The results of the television and radio reporting units prior to the onset of the pandemic and the resulting economic crisis were exceeding internal budgets, driven in large part by political advertising revenue, but declined sharply in the last few weeks of the first quarter. As a result, the Company updated its internal forecasts of future performance and determined that triggering events had occurred during the first quarter of 2020 that required interim impairment assessments. The Company determined that no triggering events had occurred during the second quarter of 2020 that required interim impairment assessments events.

The Company conducted a review of the fair value of the television and digital reporting units in the first quarter of 2020. Although the radio unit also experienced declines, there is no goodwill in the radio reporting unit. The estimated fair value of each reporting unit assessed was determined by using a combination of a market approach and an income approach. The market approach estimates fair value by applying sales, earnings and cash flow multiples to the reporting unit’s operating performance. The multiples are derived from comparable publicly-traded companies with similar operating and investment characteristics to the Company’s reporting units. The market approach requires the Company to make a series of assumptions, such as selecting comparable companies and comparable transactions and transaction premiums.

The income approach estimates fair value based on the estimated future cash flows of each reporting unit, discounted by an estimated weighted-average cost of capital that reflects current market conditions, which reflect the overall level of inherent risk of the reporting unit. The income approach also requires the Company to make a series of assumptions, such as discount rates, revenue projections, profit margin projections and terminal value multiples. The Company estimated the discount rate on a blended rate of return considering both debt and equity for comparable publicly-traded companies in the television and digital media industries. These comparable publicly-traded companies have similar size, operating characteristics and/or financial profiles to the Company’s reporting units. The Company also estimated the terminal value multiple based on comparable publicly-traded companies in the television and digital media industries. The Company estimated its revenue projections and profit margin projections based on internal forecasts about future performance.

Based on the assumptions and estimates described above, the Company concluded that the digital reporting unit carrying value exceeded its fair value, resulting in a goodwill impairment charge of $0.8 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2020. The fair value of the Company’s television reporting unit exceeded its carrying value by 28%, resulting in no impairment charge. No impairment charges of goodwill were recorded during the three-month period ended June 30, 2020.

The carrying amount of goodwill for each of the Company’s operating segments for the six-months ended June 30, 2020 is as follows (in thousands):

	December 31, 2019		Currency		Impairment			June 30, 2020
Television	$	40,549		-		-		$	40,549
Radio		-		-		-			-
Digital		5,962		-		(800	)		5,162
Consolidated	$	46,511	$	-	$	(800	)	$	45,711

The Company also conducted a review of certain of the indefinite life intangible assets in its television and radio reporting units using an income approach during the three-month period ended March 31, 2020. The income approach estimates fair value based on the estimated future cash flows of the station that a hypothetical buyer would expect to generate, discounted by an estimated weighted-average cost of capital that reflects current market conditions, which reflect the overall level of inherent risk. The income approach requires the Company to make a series of assumptions, such as discount rates, revenue projections, and profit margin projections. The Company estimates the discount rates on a blended rate of return considering both debt and equity for comparable publicly-traded companies in the television industry. These comparable publicly-traded companies have similar size, operating characteristics and/or financial profiles to the Company. The Company estimated the revenue projections and profit margin projections based on industry information for an average station within the market, as adjusted by the Company to reflect current market conditions. The information includes such things as estimated market share, estimated capital start-up costs, population, household income, retail sales and other expenditures that would influence advertising expenditures.

Based on the assumptions and estimates described above, the carrying values of certain FCC licenses exceeded their fair values. As a result, the Company recorded impairment charges of FCC licenses in its television and radio reporting units in the amount of $23.5 million and $8.8 million, respectively, during the three-month period ended March 31, 2020. No impairment charges of FCC licenses were recorded during the three-month period ended June 30, 2020.

The carrying amount of intangible assets not subject to amortization for each of the Company’s operating segments for the six-months ended June 30, 2020 is as follows (in thousands):

	December 31, 2019		Impairment			Assets Sold			June 30, 2020
Television	$	157,165	$	(23,457	)	$	(3,434	)	$	130,274
Radio		95,379		(8,800	)		-			86,579
Digital	-			-			-		-
Consolidated	$	252,544	$	(32,257	)	$	(3,434	)	$	216,853

The Company also conducted a review of certain of its long-lived assets using a two-step approach during the three-month period ended March 31, 2020. In the first step, the carrying value of the asset group is compared to the projected undiscounted cash flows to determine recoverability. If the asset carrying value is not recoverable, then the fair value of the asset group is determined in the second step using an income approach. The income approach requires the Company to make a series of assumptions, such as discount rates, revenue projections, profit margin projections and useful lives.

Based on the assumptions and estimates described above, the carrying values of long-lived assets in the digital reporting unit exceeded their fair values. As a result, the Company recorded impairment charges related to Intangibles subject to amortization of $5.3 million, and property and equipment of $1.5 million, during the three-month period ended March 31, 2020. No impairment charges related to Intangibles subject to amortization were recorded during the three-month period ended June 30, 2020.

Treasury Stock

On July 13, 2017, the Board of Directors approved a share repurchase of up to $15.0 million of the Company’s outstanding Class A common stock. On April 11, 2018, the Board of Directors approved the repurchase of up to an additional $15.0 million of the Company’s Class A common stock, for a total repurchase authorization of up to $30.0 million. On August 27, 2019, the Board of Directors approved the repurchase of up to an additional $15.0 million of the Company’s Class A common stock, for a total repurchase authorization of up to $45.0 million. Under the share repurchase program, the Company is authorized to purchase shares from time to time through open market purchases or negotiated purchases, subject to market conditions and other factors. The share repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any time without prior notice. On March 26, 2020, the Company suspended share repurchases under the plans in order to preserve cash during the continuing economic crisis resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic.

Treasury stock is included as a deduction from equity in the Stockholders’ Equity section of the Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets. Shares repurchased pursuant to the Company’s share repurchase program are retired during the same calendar year.

During the three-month period ended June 30, 2020, the Company did not repurchase any shares of Class A common stock. As of June 30, 2020, the Company has repurchased a total of approximately 8.6 million shares of Class A common stock, for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $32.2 million, or an average price per share of $3.76, since the beginning of the share repurchase program. As of June 30, 2020, all such repurchased shares were retired.

2017 Credit Facility

On November 30, 2017 (the “Closing Date”), the Company entered into its 2017 Credit Facility pursuant to the 2017 Credit Agreement. The 2017 Credit Facility consists of a $300.0 million senior secured Term Loan B Facility (the “Term Loan B Facility”), which was drawn in full on the Closing Date. In addition, the 2017 Credit Facility provides that the Company may increase the aggregate principal amount of the 2017 Credit Facility by up to an additional $100.0 million plus the amount that would result in its first lien net leverage ratio (as such term is used in the 2017 Credit Agreement) not exceeding 4.0 to 1.0, subject to the Company satisfying certain conditions.

Borrowings under the Term Loan B Facility were used on the Closing Date (a) to repay in full all of the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ outstanding obligations under the Company’s previous credit facility and to terminate the credit agreement relating thereto (the “2013 Credit Agreement”), (b) to pay fees and expenses in connection with the 2017 Credit Facility, and (c) for general corporate purposes.

The 2017 Credit Facility is guaranteed on a senior secured basis by certain of the Company’s existing and future wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries, and is secured on a first priority basis by the Company’s and those subsidiaries’ assets.

The Company’s borrowings under the 2017 Credit Facility bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the date when made at a rate per annum equal to either: (i) the Eurodollar Rate (as defined in the 2017 Credit Agreement) plus 2.75%; or (ii) the Base Rate (as defined in the 2017 Credit Agreement) plus 1.75%. The Term Loan B Facility expires on November 30, 2024 (the “Maturity Date”).

The amounts outstanding under the 2017 Credit Facility may be prepaid at the Company’s option without premium or penalty, provided that certain limitations are observed, and subject to customary breakage fees in connection with the prepayment of a LIBOR rate loan. The principal amount of the Term Loan B Facility shall be paid in installments on the dates and in the respective amounts set forth in the 2017 Credit Agreement, with the final balance due on the Maturity Date.

Subject to certain exceptions, the 2017 Credit Facility contains covenants that limit the ability of the Company and its restricted subsidiaries to, among other things:

•

incur liens on the Company’s property or assets;

•

make certain investments;

•

incur additional indebtedness;

•

consummate any merger, dissolution, liquidation, consolidation or sale of substantially all assets;

•

dispose of certain assets;

•

make certain restricted payments;

•

make certain acquisitions;

•

enter into substantially different lines of business;

•

enter into certain transactions with affiliates;

•

use loan proceeds to purchase or carry margin stock or for any other prohibited purpose;

•

change or amend the terms of the Company’s organizational documents or the organization documents of certain restricted subsidiaries in a materially adverse way to the lenders, or change or amend the terms of certain indebtedness;

•

enter into sale and leaseback transactions;

•

make prepayments of any subordinated indebtedness, subject to certain conditions; and

•

change the Company’s fiscal year, or accounting policies or reporting practices.

The 2017 Credit Facility also provides for certain customary events of default, including the following:

•

default for three (3) business days in the payment of interest on borrowings under the 2017 Credit Facility when due;

•

default in payment when due of the principal amount of borrowings under the 2017 Credit Facility;

•

failure by the Company or any subsidiary to comply with the negative covenants and certain other covenants relating to maintaining the legal existence of the Company and certain of its restricted subsidiaries and compliance with anti-corruption laws;

•

failure by the Company or any subsidiary to comply with any of the other agreements in the 2017 Credit Agreement and related loan documents that continues for thirty (30) days (or ten (10) days in the case of failure to comply with covenants related to inspection rights of the administrative agent and lenders and permitted uses of proceeds from borrowings under the 2017 Credit Facility) after the Company’s officers first become aware of such failure or first receive written notice of such failure from any lender;

•

default in the payment of other indebtedness if the amount of such indebtedness aggregates to $15.0 million or more, or failure to comply with the terms of any agreements related to such indebtedness if the holder or holders of such indebtedness can cause such indebtedness to be declared due and payable;

•

certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to the Company or any significant subsidiary;

•

final judgment is entered against the Company or any restricted subsidiary in an aggregate amount over $15.0 million, and either enforcement proceedings are commenced by any creditor or there is a period of 30 consecutive days during which the judgment remains unpaid and no stay is in effect;

•

any material provision of any agreement or instrument governing the 2017 Credit Facility ceases to be in full force and effect; and

•

any revocation, termination, substantial and adverse modification, or refusal by final order to renew, any media license, or the requirement (by final non-appealable order) to sell a television or radio station, where any such event or failure is reasonably expected to have a material adverse effect.

The Term Loan B Facility does not contain any financial covenants. In connection with the Company entering into the 2017 Credit Agreement, the Company and its restricted subsidiaries also entered into a Security Agreement, pursuant to which the Company and the Credit Parties each granted a first priority security interest in the collateral securing the 2017 Credit Facility for the benefit of the lenders under the 2017 Credit Facility.

On April 30, 2019, the Company entered into an amendment to the 2017 Credit Agreement, which became effective on May 1, 2019.

The carrying amount of the Term Loan B Facility as of June 30, 2020 was $214.7 million, net of $2.0 million of unamortized debt issuance costs and original issue discount. The estimated fair value of the Term Loan B Facility as of June 30, 2020 was approximately $214.0 million. The estimated fair value is based on quoted prices in markets where trading occurs infrequently.

As of June 30, 2020, the Company believes that it is in compliance with all covenants in the 2017 Credit Agreement.

Fair Value Measurements

The Company measures certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value is the price the Company would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction with a market participant at the measurement date.

ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, defines and establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. In accordance with ASC 820, the Company has categorized its financial assets and liabilities, based on the priority of the inputs to the valuation technique, into a three-level fair value hierarchy as set forth below.

Level 1 – Assets and liabilities whose values are based on unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in an active market that the company has the ability to access at the measurement date.

Level 2 – Assets and liabilities whose values are based on quoted prices for similar attributes in active markets; quoted prices in markets where trading occurs infrequently; and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

Level 3 – Assets and liabilities whose values are based on prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement.

If the inputs used to measure the financial instruments fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the categorization is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the instrument.

The following table presents the Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis in the Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets (in millions):

As of June 30, 2020, the Company held investments in a money market fund, certificates of deposit and corporate bonds. All certificates of deposit are within the current FDIC insurance limits and all corporate bonds are investment grade.

The Company’s available for sale securities are comprised of certificates of deposit and bonds. These securities are valued using quoted prices for similar attributes in active markets (Level 2). Since these investments are classified as available for sale, they are recorded at their fair market value within Cash and cash equivalents and Marketable securities in the Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets and their unrealized gains or losses are included in other comprehensive income.

As of June 30, 2020, the following table summarizes the amortized cost and the unrealized (gains) losses of the available for sale securities (in thousands):

	Certificates of Deposit				Corporate Bonds
	Amortized Cost		Unrealized gains (losses)		Amortized Cost		Unrealized gains (losses)

Total	$	4,402	$	66	$	59,886	$	744

The Company’s available for sale debt securities are considered for credit losses under the guidance of Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326), which the Company adopted on January 1, 2020. As of June 30, 2020, the Company determined that a credit loss allowance is not required. Refer to “Newly Adopted Accounting Standards” discussion below.

Included in interest income for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2020 was interest income related to the Company’s available-for-sale securities of $0.5 million and $1.0 million, respectively.

Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)

Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) includes foreign currency translation adjustments and changes in the fair value of available for sale securities.

The following table provides a roll-forward of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2020 (in millions):

	Foreign Currency Translation			Marketable Securities			Total

Foreign Currency

The Company’s reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. All transactions initiated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars in accordance with ASC Topic 830, “Foreign Currency Matters” and the related rate fluctuation on transactions is included in the consolidated statements of operations.

For foreign operations with the local currency as the functional currency, assets and liabilities are translated from the local currencies into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet date and equity is translated at historical rates. Revenues and expenses are translated at the average exchange rate for the period. Translation adjustments resulting from the process of translating the local currency financial statements into U.S. dollars are included in determining comprehensive (income) loss.

Based on recent data reported by the International Monetary Fund, Argentina has been identified as a country with a highly inflationary economy. According to U.S. GAAP, a registrant should apply highly inflationary accounting in the first reporting period after such determination. Therefore, the Company transitioned the accounting for its Argentine operations to highly inflationary status as of July 1, 2018 and, commencing that date, changed the functional currency from the Argentine peso to U.S. dollar.

Cost of Revenue

Cost of revenue related to the Company’s digital segment consists primarily of the costs of online media acquired from third-party publishers.

Assets Held For Sale

Assets are classified as held for sale when the carrying value is expected to be recovered through a sale rather than through their continued use and all of the necessary classification criteria have been met. Assets held for sale are recorded at the lower of their carrying value or estimated fair value less selling costs and classified as current assets. Depreciation is not recorded on assets classified as held for sale.

During the third quarter of 2019, the Company entered into an agreement to sell a vacated building that previously housed the operations of two of its television stations in the Palm Springs, California market, for $1.0 million. The building and related improvements met the criteria for classification as assets held for sale and their carrying value is presented separately in the consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2020. Due to certain government approval delays resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company anticipates that the transaction will close in the second half of 2020.

On January 22, 2020, the Company entered into an agreement with ION Media Stations, Inc. to sell television station KMCC-TV, serving the Las Vegas area, for $4.0 million. The transaction met the criteria for classification as assets held for sale as of March 31, 2020 and closed on April 2, 2020. The resulting gain of $0.6 million is included in other operating gain in the consolidated statements of operation.

On March 30, 2020, the Company entered into an agreement to sell a building and related improvements in the Houston, Texas area for approximately $5.4 million. The transaction met the criteria for classification as assets held for sale and the carrying value of $0.2 million is presented separately in the consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2020. Due to certain government approval delays resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company anticipates that the transaction will close in the second half of 2020.

During the first quarter of 2020, the Company listed for sale a building and related improvements in the Laredo, Texas area for approximately $2.9 million. The transaction met the criteria for classification as assets held for sale and the carrying value of $2.0 million is presented separately in the consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2020.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, as part of its Simplification Initiative to reduce the cost and complexity in accounting for income taxes. ASU 2019-12 removes certain exceptions related to the approach for intraperiod tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences. ASU 2019-12 also amends other aspects of the guidance to help simplify and promote consistent application of GAAP. ASU 2019-12 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of the new guidance on our consolidated financial statements.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. ASU 2020-04 provides optional guidance for a limited time to ease the potential burden in accounting for reference rate reform. The new guidance provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The amendments apply only to contracts and hedging relationships that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued due to reference rate reform. These amendments are effective immediately and may be applied prospectively to contract modifications made and hedging relationships entered into or evaluated on or before December 31, 2022. We are currently evaluating the impact of the new guidance on our consolidated financial statements.

Newly Adopted Accounting Standards

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract. The amendments in this update align the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software (and hosting arrangements that include an internal-use software license). The accounting for the service element of a hosting arrangement that is a service contract is not affected by the amendments in this update. The amendments in this update are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted ASU 2018-15 on January 1, 2020 which did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework-Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. ASU 2018-13 modifies the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements by requiring that Level 3 fair value disclosures include the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop those fair value measurements. For certain unobservable inputs, an entity may disclose other quantitative information in lieu of the weighted average if the entity determines that other quantitative information would be a more reasonable and rational method to reflect the distribution of unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. The Company adopted ASU 2018-13 on January 1, 2020 which did not have an impact on the Company’s financial statements and related disclosures since the Company does not have any Level 3 financial assets.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326). ASU 2016-13 makes significant changes to the accounting for credit losses on financial instruments presented on an amortized cost basis and disclosures about them. The new current expected credit loss (“CECL”) impairment model requires an estimate of expected credit losses, measured over the contractual life of an instrument, which considers reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions in addition to information about past events and current conditions. The standard provides significant flexibility and requires a high degree of judgment with regards to pooling financial assets with similar risk characteristics and adjusting the relevant historical loss information in order to develop an estimate of expected lifetime losses. The Company evaluated its financial instruments and determined that its trade accounts receivables are subject to the new current expected credit loss model and the Company’s available for sale debt securities are subject to the new modified credit impairment guidance.

Account Receivables

The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020 using the modified retrospective approach. Adoption of the new standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

The allowance for doubtful accounts is based on the Company’s assessment of the collectibility of customer accounts. The Company regularly reviews the allowance by considering factors such as historical experience, credit quality, the age of the accounts receivable balances, and current economic conditions that may affect a customer’s ability to pay.

The Company's exposure to credit losses may increase if its customers are adversely affected by changes such as economic pressures or uncertainty associated with local or global economic recessions, disruptions associated with the current COVID-19 pandemic, or other customer-specific factors. Although the Company has historically not experienced significant credit losses, it will continue to regularly review the allowance and make necessary adjustments accordingly.

Available for Sale Debt Securities

ASU 2016-13 made changes to the accounting for available for sale debt securities. Under the new guidance, at each reporting date, entities must evaluate their individual available for sale debt securities that are in an unrealized loss position and determine whether the decline in fair value below the amortized cost basis results from a credit loss or other factors. The amount of the decline related to credit losses are recorded as a credit loss expense in earnings with a corresponding allowance for credit losses, and the amount of the decline not related to credit losses are recorded through other comprehensive income, net of tax.

As of the adoption date on January 1, 2020, the Company applied the new credit impairment guidance for available for sale debt securities on a prospective basis. Adoption of the new standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. Refer to “Fair Value Measurements” discussion above.

3. REVENUES

Revenue Recognition

Revenues are recognized when control of the promised services is transferred to the Company’s customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those services.

Broadcast Advertising. Television and radio revenue related to the sale of advertising is recognized at the time of broadcast. Broadcast advertising rates are fixed based on each medium’s ability to attract audiences in demographic groups targeted by advertisers and rates can vary based on the time of day and ratings of the programming airing in that day part.

Digital Advertising. Revenue from digital advertising primarily consists of two types:

•

Display advertisements on websites and mobile applications that are sold based on a cost-per-thousand impressions delivered. These impressions are delivered through the Company’s websites and through third party publishers either through direct relationships with the publishers or through digital advertising exchanges.

•

Performance driven advertising whereby the customer engages the Company to drive consumers to perform an action such as the download of a mobile application, the installation of an application, or the first use of an application (typically referred to cost per action or cost per installation).

Broadcast and digital advertising revenue is recognized over time in a series as a single performance obligation as the advertisement, impression or performance advertising is delivered per the insertion order. The Company applies the practical expedient to recognize revenue for each distinct advertising service delivered at the amount the Company has the right to invoice, which corresponds directly to the value a customer has received relative to the Company’s performance. Contracts with customers are short term in nature and billing occurs on a monthly basis with payment due in 30 days. Value added taxes collected concurrent with advertising revenue producing activities are excluded from revenue. Cash payments received prior to services rendered result in deferred revenue, which is then recognized as revenue when the advertising time or space is actually provided.

Retransmission Consent. The Company generates revenue from retransmission consent agreements that are entered into with multichannel video programming distributors, or MVPDs. The Company grants the MVPDs access to its television station signals so that they may rebroadcast the signals and charge their subscribers for this programming. Payments are received on a monthly basis based on the number of monthly subscribers.

Retransmission consent revenues are considered licenses of functional intellectual property and are recognized over time utilizing the sale-based or usage-based royalty exception. The Company’s performance obligation is to provide the licensee access to our intellectual property. MVPD subscribers receive and consume the content monthly as the television signal is delivered.

Spectrum Usage Rights. The Company generates revenue from agreements associated with its television stations’ spectrum usage rights from a variety of sources, including but not limited to agreements with third parties to utilize excess spectrum for the broadcast of their multicast networks; charging fees to accommodate the operations of third parties, including moving channel positions or accepting interference with broadcasting operations; and modifying and/or relinquishing spectrum usage rights while continuing to broadcast through channel sharing or other arrangements.

Revenue generated by spectrum usage rights agreements are recognized over the period of the lease or when the Company has relinquished all or a portion of its spectrum usage rights for a station or has relinquished its rights to operate a station on the existing channel free from interference.

Other Revenue. The Company generates other revenues that are related to its broadcast operations which primarily consist of representation fees earned by the Company’s radio national representation firm, talent fees for the Company’s on-air personalities, ticket and concession sales for radio events, rent from tenants of the Company’s owned facilities, barter revenue and revenue generated under joint sales agreements.

In the case of representation fees, the Company does not control the distinct service, the commercial advertisement, prior to delivery and therefore recognizes revenue on a net basis. Similarly for joint service agreements, the Company does not own the station providing the airtime and therefore recognizes revenue on a net basis. In the case of talent fees, the on-air personality is an employee of the Company and therefore the Company controls the service provided and recognizes revenue gross with an expense for fees paid to the employee.

Practical Expedients and Exemptions

The Company does not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations when (i) contracts have an original expected length of one year or less, which applies to effectively all advertising contracts, and (ii) variable consideration is a sales-based or usage-based royalty promised in exchange for a license of intellectual property, which applies to retransmission consent revenue.

The Company applies the practical expedient to expense contract acquisition costs, such as sales commissions generated either by internal direct sales employees or through third party advertising agency intermediaries, when incurred because the amortization period is one year or less. These costs are recorded within direct operating expenses.

Disaggregated Revenue

The following table presents our revenues disaggregated by major source for the three-month periods ended (in thousands):

	Three-Month Period				Six-Month Period
	Ended June 30,				Ended June 30,
	2020		2019		2020		2019
Broadcast advertising	$	22,589	$	37,237	$	61,317	$	71,945
Digital advertising		11,373		16,804		24,704		31,276
Spectrum usage rights		1,356		3,952		2,712		9,036
Retransmission consent		9,362		9,086		18,942		17,846
Other		436		2,162		1,690		3,818
Total revenue	$	45,116	$	69,241	$	109,365	$	133,921

Contracts are entered into directly with customers or through an advertising agency that represents the customer. Sales of advertising to customers or agencies within a station’s designated market area (“DMA”) are referred to as local revenue, whereas sales from outside the station’s DMA are referred to as national revenue. The following table further disaggregates the Company’s broadcast advertising revenue by sales channel for the three-month periods ended (in thousands):

	Three-Month Period				Six-Month Period
	Ended June 30,				Ended June 30,
	2020		2019		2020		2019
Local direct	$	4,093	$	6,456	$	9,936	$	12,511
Local agency		7,873		14,966		21,439		28,666
National agency		10,623		15,815		29,942		30,768
Total revenue	$	22,589	$	37,237	$	61,317	$	71,945

Deferred Revenues

The Company records deferred revenues, which are included in accounts payable and accrued expenses in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, when cash payments are received or due in advance of its performance, including amounts which are refundable. The decrease in the deferred revenue balance for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020 is primarily driven by cash payments received or due in advance of satisfying the Company’s performance obligations, offset by revenues recognized that were included in the deferred revenue balance as of December 31, 2019.

The Company’s payment terms vary by the type and location of customer and the products or services offered. The term between invoicing and when payment is due is not significant, typically 30 days. For certain customer types, the Company requires payment before the services are delivered to the customer.

4. LEASES

The Company’s leases are considered operating leases and primarily consist of real estate such as office space, broadcasting towers, land and land easements. Right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and lease liability is recognized as of lease commencement date based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term. As the implicit rate for operating leases is not readily determinable, the future minimum lease payments were discounted using an incremental borrowing rate. Due to the Company’s having a centralized treasury function, the Company applied a portfolio approach to discount its domestic lease obligations using its secured publicly traded U.S. dollar denominated debt instruments interpolating the duration of the debt to the remaining lease term. The incremental borrowing rate for international leases is the interest rate that the Company would have to pay to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment.

The Company’s operating leases are reflected within the consolidated balance sheet as right-of-use assets with the related liability presented as lease liability, current and lease liability, net of current portion. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Generally, lease terms include options to renew or extend the lease. Unless the renewal option is considered reasonably certain, the exercise of any such options have been excluded from the calculation of lease liabilities. In addition, as permitted within the guidance, ROU assets and lease liabilities are not recorded for leases within an initial term of one year or less. The Company’s existing leases have remaining terms of less than one year up to 31 years. Certain of the Company’s lease agreements include rental payments based on changes in the consumer price index (“CPI”). Lease liabilities are not remeasured as a result of changes in the CPI; instead, changes in the CPI are treated as variable lease payments and recognized in the period in which the related obligation was incurred. Lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.

Certain real estate leases include additional costs such as common area maintenance (non-lease component), as well as property insurance and property taxes. These costs were excluded from future minimum lease payments as they are variable payments. As such, these costs were not part of the calculation of ROU assets and lease liabilities associated with operating leases upon transition.

The following table summarizes the expected future payments related to lease liabilities as of June 30, 2020:

(in thousands)
Remainder of 2020	$	5,434

ITEM 2.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview

We are a leading global media company that, through our television and radio segments, reaches and engages U.S. Hispanics across acculturation levels and media channels. Additionally, our digital segment, whose operations are located primarily in Spain, Mexico, Argentina and other countries in Latin America, reaches a global market. Our operations encompass integrated marketing and media solutions, comprised of television, radio and digital properties and data analytics services. For financial reporting purposes, we report in three segments based upon the type of advertising medium: television, radio and digital. Our net revenue for the three-month period ended June 30, 2020 was $45.1 million. Of that amount, revenue attributed to our television segment accounted for approximately 60%, revenue attributed to our digital segment accounted for approximately 25% and revenue attributed to our radio segment accounted for approximately 15%.

As of the date of filing this report, own and/or operate 54 primary television stations located primarily in California, Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Kansas, Massachusetts, Nevada, New Mexico, Texas and Washington, D.C. We own and operate 49 radio stations in 16 U.S. markets. Our radio stations consist of 38 FM and 11 AM stations located in Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Nevada, New Mexico and Texas. We also sell advertisements and syndicate radio programming to more than 100 markets across the United States. We also provide digital advertising solutions that allow advertisers to reach primarily online Hispanic audiences worldwide. We operate proprietary technology and data platforms that deliver digital advertising in various advertising formats and which allow advertisers to reach audiences across a wide range of Internet-connected devices on our owned and operated digital media sites; the digital media sites of our publisher partners; and on other digital media sites we access through third-party platforms and exchanges.

We generate revenue primarily from sales of national and local advertising time on television stations, radio stations and digital media platforms, and from retransmission consent agreements that are entered into with MVPDs. Advertising rates are, in large part, based on each medium’s ability to attract audiences in demographic groups targeted by advertisers. We recognize advertising revenue when commercials are broadcast and when display or other digital advertisements record impressions on the websites of our third party publishers or as the advertiser’s previously agreed-upon performance criteria are satisfied. We do not obtain long-term commitments from our advertisers and, consequently, they may cancel, reduce or postpone orders without penalties. We pay commissions to agencies for local, regional and national advertising. For contracts directly with agencies, we record net revenue from these agencies. Seasonal revenue fluctuations are common in our industry and are due primarily to variations in advertising expenditures by both local and national advertisers. Our first fiscal quarter generally produces the lowest net revenue for the year. In addition, advertising revenue is generally higher during presidential election years (2020, 2024, etc.), resulting from significant political advertising and, to a lesser degree, Congressional mid-term election years (2022, 2026, etc.), resulting from increased political advertising, compared to other years.

We refer to the revenue generated by agreements with MVPDs as retransmission consent revenue, which represents payments from MVPDs for access to our television station signals so that they may rebroadcast our signals and charge their subscribers for this programming. We recognize retransmission consent revenue earned as the television signal is delivered to the MVPD.

Our FCC licenses grant us spectrum usage rights within each of the television markets in which we operate. We regard these rights as a valuable asset. With the proliferation of mobile devices and advances in technology that have freed up excess spectrum capacity, the monetization of our spectrum usage rights has become a significant part of our business in recent years. We generate revenue from agreements associated with these television stations’ spectrum usage rights from a variety of sources, including but not limited to agreements with third parties to utilize excess spectrum for the broadcast of their multicast networks; charging fees to accommodate the operations of third parties, including moving channel positions or accepting interference with broadcasting operations; and modifying and/or relinquishing spectrum usage rights while continuing to broadcast through channel sharing or other arrangements. Revenue generated by such agreements is recognized over the period of the lease or when we have relinquished all or a portion of our spectrum usage rights for a station or have relinquished our rights to operate a station on the existing channel free from interference. In addition, we will consider strategic acquisitions of television stations to further this strategy from time to time, as well as additional monetization opportunities expected to arise as the television broadcast industry anticipates advances in ATSC 3.0.

Our primary expenses are employee compensation, including commissions paid to our sales staff and amounts paid to our national representative firms, as well as expenses for general and administrative functions, promotion and selling, engineering, marketing and local programming. Our local programming costs for television consist primarily of costs related to producing a local newscast in most of our markets. Cost of revenue related to our digital segment consists primarily of the costs of online media acquired from third-party publishers and third party server costs. Direct operating expenses include salaries and commissions of sales staff, amounts paid to national representation firms, production and programming expenses, fees for ratings services, and engineering costs. Corporate expenses consist primarily of salaries related to corporate officers and back office functions, third party legal and accounting services, and fees incurred as a result of being a publicly traded and reporting company.

Highlights

During the second quarter of 2020, our consolidated revenue decreased to $45.1 million from $69.2 million in the prior year period, primarily due to a decrease in advertising revenue as a result of the continuing economic crisis resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, and a decrease in revenue from spectrum usage rights. The decrease in revenue was partially offset by an increase in retransmission consent revenue in our television segment and an increase in political advertising revenue in our television and radio segments. Our audience shares remained strong in the nation’s most densely populated Hispanic markets.

Net revenue in our television segment decreased to $27.0 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2020 from $38.1 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2019. This decrease of approximately $11.1 million, or 29%, in net revenue was primarily due to decreases in revenue from spectrum usage rights and local and national advertising revenue, partially offset by an increase in political advertising revenue and retransmission consent revenue. The decrease in local and national advertising revenue was primarily a result of the continuing economic crisis resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, ratings declines, competitive factors with other Spanish-language broadcasters, and changing demographic preferences of audiences. We have previously noted a trend for advertising to move increasingly from traditional media, such as television, to new media, such as digital media, and we expect this trend to continue.

Net revenue in our digital segment decreased to $11.4 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2020 from $16.8 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2019. This decrease of approximately $5.4 million, or 32%, in net revenue was a result of declines in international revenue and the continuing economic crisis resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. We have previously noted a trend in our domestic digital operations whereby revenue is shifting more to programmatic revenue, and this trend is now growing in markets outside the United States. As a result, advertisers are demanding more efficiency and lower cost from intermediaries like us. In response to this trend, we are offering programmatic solutions to advertisers, which is putting pressure on margins. We expect this trend will continue in future periods, likely resulting in a permanent higher volume, lower margin business in our digital segment. The digital advertising industry remains dynamic and is continuing to undergo rapid changes in technology and competition. We expect this trend to continue and possibly accelerate. We must continue to remain vigilant to meet these dynamic and rapid changes including the need to further adjust our business strategies accordingly. No assurances can be given that such adjustments will be successful.

Net revenue in our radio segment decreased to $6.8 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2020 from $14.4 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2019. This decrease of approximately $7.6 million, or 53%, in net revenue was primarily due to decreases in local and national advertising revenue, partially offset by an increase in political advertising revenue. The decrease in local and national advertising revenue was primarily a result of the continuing economic crisis resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, ratings declines and competitive factors with other Spanish-language broadcasters, and changing demographic preferences of audiences. We have previously noted a trend for advertising to move increasingly from traditional media, such as radio, to new media, such as digital media, and we expect this trend to continue. This trend has had a more significant impact on our radio revenue as compared to television revenue, and we expect that this trend will also continue.

The Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on our Business

This section of this report should be read in conjunction with the rest of this item, “Forward-Looking Statements” and Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements appearing herein, for a more complete understanding of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business.

The COVID-19 pandemic has affected our business and, subject to the extent and duration of the pandemic and the continuing economic crisis that has resulted from the pandemic, is anticipated to continue to affect our business, from both an operational and financial perspective, in future periods.

Operational Impact

As a result of lockdown, shelter-in-place, stay-at-home or similar orders imposed beginning in March 2020, businesses in non-essential industries were closed or their operations were curtailed throughout the United States and around the world. By some estimates, up to 95% of the U.S. population has at one time or another been subject to such orders. While a number of such orders have been lifted or eased, unprecedented disruptions in daily life and business continue on a global scale.

We are considered, or we believe that we are considered, an “essential business” in all jurisdictions in the United States that have imposed lockdown, shelter-in-place, stay-at-home or similar orders. To date, we have experienced no significant interruption of our broadcasts in our television and radio segments in any of the markets in which we own and/or operate stations. Nonetheless, we are operating with reduced staff at all of our stations and we cannot give assurance at this time whether a more prolonged or extensive impact of the pandemic in any of our markets would not adversely affect our ability to continue staffing our stations at appropriate levels to continue broadcasts without interruption.

Our digital media segment has a significant number of employees in Spain, Mexico and Argentina, which have been among the worst affected countries in the world by the pandemic. Spain began to return to work in July following highly restrictive lockdowns that began in March 2020 and Mexico began lifting lockdown restrictions in early June, while in late June Argentina extended and strengthened existing lockdown conditions in Buenos Aires that began nationwide in March 2020. Nonetheless, most of our employees in our digital media segment work remotely and we have not seen a significant interruption in our digital media business to date. We cannot give assurance at this time whether a more prolonged or extensive impact of the pandemic in Spain, Latin America or any other location where our digital media segment has employees or operates would not adversely affect our digital media business.

Our corporate office is located in Santa Monica, California, which, since March 19, 2020, has been subject to a statewide order to stay at home except as needed to maintain continuity of operations of critical infrastructure sectors. We have been operating with reduced staff in our corporate office, with the majority of our staff working remotely, despite the easing of the stay-at-home order in California late in the quarter ended June 30, 2020. We have not experienced any significant interruption in any of our corporate or administrative departments, including without limitation our finance and accounting departments.

Financial Impact

In the quarter ended June 30, 2020, as the global, U.S. and local economies declined dramatically as a result of lockdown, shelter-in-place and stay-at-home or similar orders, we experienced a continuation of the significant cancellations of advertising and a significant decrease in new advertising placements in our television segment and especially our radio segment that we had begun to experience during the last half of March 2020. The impact on our radio segment was significantly greater than on our television segment because radio audiences declined at a much greater rate as a result of fewer people commuting to work or driving in general as a result of lockdown, shelter-in-place, stay-at-home or similar orders throughout the United States that were in effect broadly for most of the quarter ended June 30, 2020.

We believe that these cancellations and reductions in the placement of new advertising are primarily attributable to decisions that our advertisers are making regarding the preservation of their own capital during the continuing business interruption that has resulted from a variety of lockdown, shelter-in-place, stay-at-home or similar orders; the closure of businesses across the United States, including those in the automotive, services, non-emergency healthcare, retail, travel, restaurant and telecommunications industries, which has resulted in consumers not being able to frequent such businesses; reduced demand for products and services by our advertisers’ customers, who are our audiences; the diversion of our advertisers’ own personnel’s attention from advertising activities during the pandemic as a result of health concerns, remote working and/or financial and other non-financial considerations; and the financial solvency of our advertisers in general during the continuing economic crisis that has resulted from the pandemic.

To partially address this situation, we have significantly reduced some of our advertising rates, primarily in our radio segment. We have also eased credit terms for certain of our advertising clients to help them manage their own cash flow and address other financial needs.

Depending upon the extent and duration of the pandemic and the continuing economic crisis that has resulted from the pandemic, we expect that these cancellations and reductions in the placement of new advertising will continue in future periods. Therefore, our results of operations for the quarter ended June 30, 2020 may not be indicative of our results of operations for any future period in fiscal year 2020 or the full fiscal year 2020. We cannot give assurance at this time whether a more prolonged or extensive impact of the pandemic and the continuing economic crisis that has resulted from the pandemic would not adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition in future periods during the course of the pandemic, or beyond.

Based on publicly available information, while it currently appears that there is some economic recovery underway and the U.S. economy has begun to improve month-over-month during the quarter ended June 30, 2020, we believe that we have not yet felt the full impact of the continuing economic crisis, nor do we know how soon the global, U.S. and local economies will fully recover. Therefore, while we hope for a different outcome, we anticipate that we may continue to experience an adverse financial impact on our business and results of operations, albeit at a potentially slower rate, and possibly our financial condition, for an unknown period of time even after lockdown, shelter-in-place, stay-at-home and similar orders have been fully lifted and businesses begin or continue to reopen. Additionally, any resurgence of the pandemic, which is beginning to be reported in many areas of the United States and around the world, and/or any reimposition of lockdown, shelter-in-place, stay-at-home and similar orders, could intensify this adverse impact and add uncertainty to our business, results of operations and financial condition in future periods.

We have engaged in a small number of layoffs and significant number of furloughs of employees as a result of the pandemic, primarily during the quarter ended March 31, 2020 and early in the quarter ended June 30, 2020. We will continue to monitor this situation closely and may institute such further layoffs or furloughs as we may feel are appropriate at a future date. It is unclear when we may reintroduce furloughed employees to active employment, but this will depend, at least in significant part, on substantial improvement in economic conditions as a whole, as well as our own results of operations, to pre-pandemic or close to pre-pandemic levels. We have elected to defer the employer portion of the social security payroll tax (6.2%) as outlined within the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act of 2020, commonly known as the CARES Act. The deferral is effective from March 27, 2020 through December 31, 2020. The deferred amount will be paid in two installments and the amount will be considered timely paid if 50% of the deferred amount is paid by December 31, 2021 and the remainder by December 31, 2022. We are also reviewing the possibility of applying for some relief under the CARES Act with respect to our furloughed employees, but we have not done so yet and no decision has been made if we will apply for any such relief.

In order to preserve cash during this period, we have instituted certain cost reduction measures. On March 26, 2020, we suspended repurchases under our share repurchase program. Effective April 16, 2020, we instituted a 2.5%-22.5% reduction in salaries company-wide, depending on the amount of then-current compensation. Effective May 16, 2020, we suspended company matching of employee contributions to their 401(k) retirement plans. We also reduced our dividend by 50% in the present quarter and may consider doing so in future periods. Additionally, effective May 28, 2020, the Board of Directors decreased its annual non-employee director fees by 20% for the Board year ending at the 2021 shareholders meeting. We will continue to monitor all of these actions closely in light of current and changing conditions and may institute such additional actions as we may feel are appropriate at a future date.

We believe that our liquidity and capital resources remain adequate and that we can meet current expenses for at least the next twelve months from a combination of cash on hand and cash flows from operations.

In addition to the great personal toll that the pandemic has exacted and is expected to continue to exact, the challenges it is causing to the global, U.S. and local economies have and will continue to create unprecedented uncertainty in our business and how we plan and respond to rapidly changing circumstances in our operations, as well as the impact this may have on our business, results of operations and financial condition. We are closely monitoring the situation across all fronts and will need to remain flexible to respond to developments as they occur. However, we cannot give any assurance if, or the extent to which, we will be successful in these efforts.

Relationship with Univision

Substantially all of our television stations are Univision- or UniMás-affiliated television stations. Our network affiliation agreement with Univision provides certain of our owned stations the exclusive right to broadcast Univision’s primary network and UniMás network programming in their respective markets. Under the network affiliation agreement, we retain the right to sell no less than four minutes per hour of the available advertising time on stations that broadcast Univision network programming, and the right to sell approximately four and a half minutes per hour of the available advertising time on stations that broadcast UniMás network programming, subject to adjustment from time to time by Univision.

Under the network affiliation agreement, Univision acts as our exclusive third-party sales representative for the sale of certain national advertising on our Univision- and UniMás-affiliate television stations, and we pay certain sales representation fees to Univision relating to sales of all advertising for broadcast on our Univision- and UniMás-affiliate television stations. During the three-month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the amount we paid Univision in this capacity was $1.4 million and $2.0 million, respectively. During the six-month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the amount we paid Univision in this capacity was $3.6 million and $4.0 million, respectively.

We also generate revenue under two marketing and sales agreements with Univision, which give us the right to manage the marketing and sales operations of Univision-owned Univision affiliates in six markets – Albuquerque, Boston, Denver, Orlando, Tampa and Washington, D.C.

Under the current proxy agreement we have entered into with Univision, we grant Univision the right to negotiate the terms of retransmission consent agreements for our Univision- and UniMás-affiliated television station signals. Among other things, the proxy agreement provides terms relating to compensation to be paid to us by Univision with respect to retransmission consent agreements entered into with MVPDs. During the three-month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, retransmission consent revenue accounted for approximately $9.4 million and $9.1 million, respectively, of which $6.8 million and $7.0 million, respectively, relate to the Univision proxy agreement. During the six-month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, retransmission consent revenue accounted for approximately $18.9 million and $17.8 million, respectively, of which $13.8 million and $13.7 million, respectively, relate to the Univision proxy agreement. The term of the proxy agreement extends with respect to any MVPD for the length of the term of any retransmission consent agreement in effect before the expiration of the proxy agreement.

Univision currently owns approximately 11% of our common stock on a fully-converted basis. Our Class U common stock, all of which is held by Univision, has limited voting rights and does not include the right to elect directors. Each share of Class U common stock is automatically convertible into one share of Class A common stock (subject to adjustment for stock splits, dividends or combinations) in connection with any transfer of such shares of Class U common stock to a third party that is not an affiliate of Univision. In addition, as the holder of all of our issued and outstanding Class U common stock, so long as Univision holds a certain number of shares of Class U common stock, we may not, without the consent of Univision, merge, consolidate or enter into a business combination, dissolve or liquidate our company or dispose of any interest in any FCC license with respect to television stations which are affiliates of Univision, among other things.

Consolidated adjusted EBITDA means net income (loss) plus gain (loss) on sale of assets, depreciation and amortization, non-cash impairment charge, non-cash stock-based compensation included in operating and corporate expenses, net interest expense, other income (loss), non-recurring cash expenses, gain (loss) on debt extinguishment, income tax (expense) benefit, equity in net income (loss) of nonconsolidated affiliate, non-cash losses, syndication programming amortization less syndication programming payments, revenue from FCC spectrum incentive auction less related expenses, expenses associated with investments, acquisitions and dispositions and certain pro-forma cost savings. We use the term consolidated adjusted EBITDA because that measure is defined in our 2017 Credit Agreement and does not include gain (loss) on sale of assets, depreciation and amortization, non-cash impairment charge, non-cash stock-based compensation, net interest expense, other income (loss), non-recurring cash expenses, gain (loss) on debt extinguishment, income tax (expense) benefit, equity in net income (loss) of nonconsolidated affiliate, non-cash losses, syndication programming amortization less syndication programming payments, revenue from FCC spectrum incentive auction less related expenses, expenses associated with investments, acquisitions and dispositions and certain pro-forma cost savings.

Since consolidated adjusted EBITDA is a measure governing several critical aspects of our 2017 Credit Facility, we believe that it is important to disclose consolidated adjusted EBITDA to our investors. We may increase the aggregate principal amount outstanding by an additional amount equal to $100.0 million plus the amount that would result in our total net leverage ratio, or the ratio of consolidated total senior debt (net of up to $75.0 million of unrestricted cash) to trailing-twelve-month consolidated adjusted EBITDA, not exceeding 4.0. In addition, beginning December 31, 2018, at the end of every calendar year, in the event our total net leverage ratio is within certain ranges, we must make a debt prepayment equal to a certain percentage of our Excess Cash Flow, which is defined as consolidated adjusted EBITDA, less consolidated interest expense, less debt principal payments, less taxes paid, less other amounts set forth in the definition of Excess Cash Flow in the 2017 Credit Agreement. The total leverage ratio was as follows (in each case as of June 30): 2020, 4.4 to 1; 2019, 3.2 to 1.

While many in the financial community and we consider consolidated adjusted EBITDA to be important, it should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for or superior to, other measures of liquidity and financial performance prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, such as cash flows from operating activities, operating income (loss) and net income (loss). As consolidated adjusted EBITDA excludes non-cash gain (loss) on sale of assets, non-cash depreciation and amortization, non-cash impairment charge, non-cash stock-based compensation expense, net interest expense, other income (loss), non-recurring cash expenses, gain (loss) on debt extinguishment, income tax (expense) benefit, equity in net income (loss) of nonconsolidated affiliate, non-cash losses, syndication programming amortization less syndication programming payments, revenue from FCC spectrum incentive auction less related expenses, expenses associated with investments, acquisitions and dispositions and certain pro-forma cost savings, consolidated adjusted EBITDA has certain limitations because it excludes and includes several important financial line items. Therefore, we consider both non-GAAP and GAAP measures when evaluating our business. Consolidated adjusted EBITDA is also used to make executive compensation decisions.

Consolidated adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to consolidated adjusted EBITDA is cash flows from operating activities. A reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure to cash flows from operating activities follows (in thousands):

Consolidated Operations

Net Revenue. Net revenue decreased to $45.1 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2020 from $69.2 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2019, a decrease of $24.1 million. Of the overall decrease, approximately $11.1 million was attributable to our television segment due to decreases in revenue from spectrum usage rights and local and national advertising revenue, partially offset by increases in political advertising revenue and retransmission consent revenue. The decrease in local and national advertising revenue was primarily a result of the continuing economic crisis resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, ratings declines, competitive factors with other Spanish-language broadcasters, and changing demographic preferences of audiences. We have previously noted a trend for advertising to move increasingly from traditional media, such as television, to new media, such as digital media, and we expect this trend to continue. In addition, approximately $5.4 million of the overall decrease was attributable to our digital segment and was primarily due to declines in international revenue and the continuing economic crisis resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. This decline in digital revenue is being driven by a trend whereby revenue is shifting more to programmatic revenue. In addition, approximately $7.6 million of the overall decrease was attributable to our radio segment and was primarily due to decreases in local and national advertising revenue, partially offset by an increase in political advertising revenue. The decrease in local and national advertising revenue was primarily a result of the continuing economic crisis resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, ratings declines and competitive factors with other Spanish-language broadcasters, and changing demographic preferences of audiences. We have previously noted a trend for advertising to move increasingly from traditional media, such as radio, to new media, such as digital media, and we expect this trend to continue.

Net revenue decreased to $109.4 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020 from $133.9 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2019, a decrease of $24.5 million. Of the overall decrease, approximately $10.2 million was attributable to our television segment due to decreases in revenue from spectrum usage rights and local and national advertising revenue, partially offset by increases in political advertising revenue and retransmission consent revenue. The decrease in local and national advertising revenue was primarily a result of the continuing economic crisis resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, ratings declines, competitive factors with other Spanish-language broadcasters, and changing demographic preferences of audiences. We have previously noted a trend for advertising to move increasingly from traditional media, such as television, to new media, such as digital media, and we expect this trend to continue. In addition, approximately $6.6 million of the overall decrease was attributable to our digital segment and was primarily due to declines in international revenue and the continuing economic crisis resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. This decline in digital revenue is being driven by a trend whereby revenue is shifting more to programmatic revenue. In addition, approximately $7.8 million of the overall decrease was attributable to our radio segment and was primarily due to decreases in local and national advertising revenue, partially offset by an increase in political advertising revenue. The decrease in local and national advertising revenue was primarily a result of the continuing economic crisis resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, ratings declines and competitive factors with other Spanish-language broadcasters, and changing demographic preferences of audiences. We have previously noted a trend for advertising to move increasingly from traditional media, such as radio, to new media, such as digital media, and we expect this trend to continue.

We currently anticipate that for the full year 2020, net revenue will decrease, primarily due to the continuing economic crisis resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic and the continuing effects of that crisis, depending upon its extent and duration.

Cost of revenue-Digital. Cost of revenue in our digital segment decreased to $6.4 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2020 from $8.9 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2019, a decrease of $2.5 million, primarily due to a decrease in expenses associated with the decrease in revenue in our digital segment.

Cost of revenue in our digital segment decreased to $13.8 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020 from $16.5 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2019, a decrease of $2.7 million, primarily due to a decrease in expenses associated with the decrease in revenue in our digital segment.

Direct Operating Expenses. Direct operating expenses decreased to $22.1 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2020 from $29.7 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2019, a decrease of $7.6 million. Of the overall decrease, approximately $2.1 million was attributable to our television segment and was primarily due to decreases in salary expense, as a result of the company-wide reduction in salaries implemented effective April 16, 2020, and expenses associated with the decrease in advertising revenue. Additionally approximately $2.0 million was attributable to our digital segment and was primarily due to decreases in salary expense, as a result of the company-wide reduction in salaries implemented effective April 16, 2020, and expenses associated with the decrease in advertising revenue. Additionally approximately $3.4 million of the overall decrease was attributable to our radio segment and was primarily due to decreases in salary expense, as a result of the company-wide reduction in salaries implemented effective April 16, 2020, and expenses associated with the decrease in advertising revenue. As a percentage of net revenue, direct operating expenses increased to 49% for the three-month period ended June 30, 2020 from 43% for the three-month period ended June 30, 2019, because the rate of decline in revenue exceeded the rate of decline in expenses.

Direct operating expenses decreased to $48.8 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020 from $58.6 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2019, a decrease of $9.8 million. Of the overall decrease, approximately $1.2 million was attributable to our television segment and was primarily due to decreases in salary expense, as a result of the company-wide reduction in salaries implemented effective April 16, 2020, and expenses associated with the decrease in advertising revenue. Additionally approximately $3.3 million was attributable to our digital segment and was primarily due to decreases in salary expense, as a result of the company-wide reduction in salaries implemented effective April 16, 2020, and expenses associated with the decrease in advertising revenue. Additionally approximately $5.2 million of the overall decrease was attributable to our radio segment and was primarily due to decreases in salary expense, as a result of the company-wide reduction in salaries implemented effective April 16, 2020, and expenses associated with the decrease in advertising revenue. As a percentage of net revenue, direct operating expenses increased to 45% for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020 from 44% for the six-month period ended June 30, 2019, because the rate of decline in revenue exceeded the rate of decline in expenses.

We currently anticipate that direct operating expenses will decrease during 2020, primarily as a result of lower expenses associated with the anticipated decrease in revenue due to the continuing economic crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, and the continuing effects of that crisis, depending upon its extent and duration, including the company-wide reduction in salaries implemented effective April 16, 2020. Additionally, we currently anticipate that direct operating expenses will decrease during 2020 due to a structural change in compensation for one of our radio personalities.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased to $10.9 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2020 from $13.5 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2019, a decrease of $2.6 million. The decrease was primarily due to decreases in salary expense and payroll tax, as a result of the company-wide reduction in salaries implemented effective April 16, 2020. As a percentage of net revenue, selling, general and administrative expenses increased

to 24% for the three-month period ended June 30, 2020 from 20% for the three-month period ended June 30, 2019, because the rate of decline in revenue exceeded the rate of decline in expenses.

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased to $24.5 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020 from $27.4 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2019, a decrease of $2.9 million. The decrease was primarily due to decreases in salary expense and payroll tax, as a result of the company-wide reduction in salaries implemented effective April 16, 2020. As a percentage of net revenue, selling, general and administrative expenses increased to 22% for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020 from 20% for the six-month period ended June 30, 2019, because the rate of decline in revenue exceeded the rate of decline in expenses.

We currently anticipate that selling, general and administrative expenses will decrease during 2020, primarily due to the continuing economic crisis resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic and the continuing effects of that crisis, depending upon its extent and duration, including the company-wide reduction in salaries implemented effective April 16, 2020.

Corporate Expenses. Corporate expenses decreased to $5.4 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2020 from $6.5 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2019, a decrease of $1.1 million. The decrease was primarily due to decreases in salary expense, as a result of the company-wide reduction in salaries implemented effective April 16, 2020, and audit fees. As a percentage of net revenue, corporate expenses increased to 12% for the three-month period ended June 30, 2020 from 9% the three-month period ended June 30, 2019, because the rate of decline in revenue exceeded the rate of decline in expenses.

Corporate expenses decreased to $12.2 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020 from $13.4 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2019, a decrease of $1.2 million. The decrease was primarily due to decreases in salary expense, as a result of the company-wide reduction in salaries implemented effective April 16, 2020, and audit fees. As a percentage of net revenue, corporate expenses increased to 11% for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020 from 10% for the six-month period ended June 30, 2019, because the rate of decline in revenue exceeded the rate of decline in expenses.

We currently anticipate that corporate expenses will decrease during 2020, primarily due to the continuing economic crisis resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic and the continuing effects of that crisis, depending upon its extent and duration, including the company-wide reduction in salaries implemented effective April 16, 2020.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization decreased to $3.9 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2020 compared to $4.3 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2019. The decrease was primarily attributable to long-lived assets in our digital segment that were impaired in the first quarter of 2020.

Depreciation and amortization increased to $8.4 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020 compared to $8.2 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2019. The increase was primarily attributable to fixed assets additions in our television segment as part of the broadcast television repack following the FCC auction for broadcast spectrum, partially offset by long-lived assets in our digital segment that were impaired in the first quarter of 2020.

Change in fair value of contingent consideration. As a result of the change in fair value of the contingent consideration related to our 2017 acquisition of 100% of several entities collectively doing business as Headway (“Headway”), we recognized income of $2.7 million and $2.4 million for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2019.

Foreign currency (gain) loss. Our historical revenues have primarily been denominated in U.S. dollars, and the majority of our current revenues continue to be, and are expected to remain, denominated in U.S. dollars. However, our operating expenses are generally denominated in the currencies of the countries in which our operations are located, and we have operations in countries other than the United States, primarily those operations related to our Headway business. As a result, we have operating expense, attributable to foreign currency, that is primarily related to the operations related to our Headway business. We had a foreign currency gain of $0.2 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2020 compared to a foreign currency gain of $0.1 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2019. Foreign currency gain was primarily due to currency fluctuations that affected our digital segment operations located outside the United States, primarily related to the Headway business.

We had a foreign currency loss of $1.4 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020 compared to a foreign currency loss of $0.1 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2019. Foreign currency loss was primarily due to currency fluctuations that affected our digital segment operations located outside the U.S., primarily related to the Headway business.

Other operating gain. Other operating gain increased to $2.0 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2020 from $1.6 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2019, primarily due to gains from the sale of certain assets (see Note 2 to Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements), and gains in connection with the required relocation of certain television stations to a different channel as part of the broadcast television repack following the FCC auction for broadcast spectrum.

Other operating gain decreased to $2.9 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020 from $3.6 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2019, primarily due to a decrease in gains in connection with the required relocation of certain television stations to a different channel as part of the broadcast television repack following the FCC auction for broadcast spectrum, partially offset by gains from the sale of certain assets (see Note 2 to Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).

Impairment. Due to the continuing economic crisis resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, we experienced a decline in performance across all our reporting units beginning late in the first quarter of 2020. Additionally, the digital reporting unit was already facing declining results prior to the onset of the pandemic, caused by continuing competitive pressures and rapid changes in the digital advertising industry, which then further accelerated late in the quarter as a result of the economic crisis brought about from the pandemic. The results of the television and radio reporting units’ results prior to the onset of the pandemic were exceeding internal budgets, driven in large part by political advertising revenue, but declined sharply in the last few weeks of that quarter. As a result, we updated our internal forecasts of future performance and determined that triggering events had occurred during the first quarter of 2020 that required interim impairment assessments related to goodwill, indefinite lived intangible assets and long-lived assets. As a result of these assessments, we recognized impairment charges totaling $39.8 million in the six-month period ended June 30, 2020. We did not recognize impairment charges in the three-month period ended June 30, 2020.

Operating Income (Loss). As a result of the above factors, operating loss was $1.4 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2020, compared to operating loss of $11.6 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2019. As a result of the above factors, operating loss was $36.7 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020, compared to operating loss of $6.6 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2019

Interest Expense, net. Interest expense, net decreased to $1.5 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2020 from $2.7 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2019, a decrease of $1.2 million. This decrease was primarily due to lower principal balance as a result of repayment in the fourth quarter of 2019, and a lower interest rate.

Interest expense, net decreased to $3.5 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020 from $5.3 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2019, a decrease of $1.8 million. This decrease was primarily due to lower principal balance as a result of repayment in the fourth quarter of 2019, and a lower interest rate.

Income Tax Benefit (Expense). Income tax benefit for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020 was $6.9 million, or 17% of our pre-tax loss. Income tax expense for the six-month period ended June 30, 2019 was $3.3 million, or negative 29% of our pre-tax loss. The effective tax rate for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020 was different than our statutory rate due to foreign and state taxes, a valuation allowance on deferred tax assets in our Spanish entity, adjustments to our state tax return filings as a result of gain that was previously deferred, and nondeductible expenses, primarily goodwill impairment charges. We compute our interim tax expense by projecting our effective tax rate for the year and applying the projected annual effective tax rate to the year to date pre-tax income from continuing operations for the reporting quarter. Additional “discrete" items (such as excess tax benefits from share based compensation) may adjust the year to date tax expense in the quarter in which such items occur.

Our management periodically evaluates the realizability of the deferred tax assets and, if it is determined that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets are realizable, adjusts the valuation allowance accordingly. Valuation allowances are established and maintained for deferred tax assets on a “more likely than not” threshold. The process of evaluating the need to maintain a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets and the amount maintained in any such allowance is highly subjective and is based on many factors, several of which are subject to significant judgment calls. Based on our analysis we determined that it was more likely than not that our deferred tax assets would be realized for all jurisdictions with the exception of our digital operations located in Spain. As a result of recurring losses from our digital operations in Spain, management has determined that it is more likely than not that deferred tax assets of approximately $2.9 million at June 30, 2020 will not be realized and therefore we have established a valuation allowance on those assets.

We intend to reinvest permanently our unremitted earnings in our foreign subsidiaries, and accordingly have not provided deferred tax liabilities on those earnings. We have not yet determined an estimate of the total amount of unremitted earnings.

Segment Operations

Television

Net Revenue. Net revenue in our television segment decreased to $27.0 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2020 from $38.1 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2019. This decrease of approximately $11.1 million, or 29%, in net revenue was a result of decreases in revenue from spectrum usage rights and local and national advertising revenue, partially offset by an increase in political advertising revenue and retransmission consent revenue. The decrease in local and national advertising revenue was primarily a result of the continuing economic crisis resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, ratings declines, competitive factors with other Spanish-language broadcasters, and changing demographic preferences of audiences. We have previously noted a trend for advertising to move increasingly from traditional media, such as television, to new media, such as digital media, and we expect this trend to continue. We generated a total of $9.4 million and $9.1 million in retransmission consent revenue for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Net revenue in our television segment decreased to $66.2 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020 from $76.3 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2019. This decrease of approximately $10.1 million, or 13%, in net revenue was a result of decreases in revenue from spectrum usage rights and local and national advertising revenue, partially offset by an increase in political advertising revenue and retransmission consent revenue. The decrease in local and national advertising revenue was primarily a result of the continuing economic crisis resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, ratings declines, competitive factors with other Spanish-language broadcasters, and changing demographic preferences of audiences. We have previously noted a trend for advertising to move increasingly from traditional media, such as television, to new media, such as digital media, and we expect this trend to continue. We generated a total of $18.9 million and $17.8 million in retransmission consent revenue for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Direct Operating Expenses. Direct operating expenses in our television segment decreased to $13.1 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2020 from $15.2 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2019, a decrease of approximately $2.1 million. The decrease was primarily due to decreases in salary expense and expenses associated with the decrease in advertising revenue.

Direct operating expenses in our television segment increased to $28.9 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020 from $30.1 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2019, a decrease of approximately $1.2 million. The decrease was primarily due to decreases in salary expense and expenses associated with the decrease in advertising revenue.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses in our television segment decreased to $4.7 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2020 from $5.6 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2019, a decrease of approximately $0.9 million. The decrease was primarily due to decreases in salary expense and payroll tax expense.

Selling, general and administrative expenses in our television segment decreased to $10.6 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020 from $11.4 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2019, a decrease of approximately $0.8 million. The decrease was primarily due to decreases in salary expense and payroll tax expense.

Digital

Net Revenue. Net revenue in our digital segment decreased to $11.4 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2020 from $16.8 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2019. This decrease of approximately $5.4 million, or 32%, in net revenue was a result of declines in international revenue and the continuing economic crisis resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. We have previously noted a trend in our domestic digital operations whereby revenue is shifting more to programmatic revenue, and this trend is now growing in markets outside the United States. As a result, advertisers are demanding more efficiency and lower cost from intermediaries like us. In response to this trend, we are offering programmatic solutions to advertisers, which is putting pressure on margins. We expect this trend will continue in future periods, likely resulting in a permanent higher volume, lower margin business in our digital segment. The digital advertising industry remains dynamic and is continuing to undergo rapid changes in technology and competition. We expect this trend to continue and possibly accelerate. We must continue to remain vigilant to meet these dynamic and rapid changes including the need to further adjust our business strategies accordingly. No assurances can be given that such adjustments will be successful.

Net revenue in our digital segment decreased to $24.7 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020 from $31.3 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2019.

Cost of revenue in our digital segment decreased to $6.4 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2020 from $8.9 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2019, a decrease of $2.5 million, primarily due to a decrease in expenses associated with the decrease in revenue. As a percentage of digital net revenue, cost of revenue increased to 57% for the three-month period ended June 30, 2020 from 53% for the three-month period ended June 30, 2019.

with the decrease in revenue. As a percentage of digital net revenue, cost of revenue increased to 56% for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020 from 53% for the six-month period ended June 30, 2019.

Direct operating expenses. Direct operating expenses in our digital segment decreased to $2.9 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2020 from $5.0 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2019, a decrease of $2.1 million. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in expenses associated with the decrease in revenue and a decrease in salary expense.

Direct operating expenses in our digital segment decreased to $6.1 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020 from $9.5 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2019, a decrease of $3.4 million. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in expenses associated with the decrease in revenue and a decrease in salary expense.

Selling, general and administrative expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses in our digital segment decreased to $3.2 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2020 from $3.5 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2019, a decrease of $0.3 million. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease salary expense.

Selling, general and administrative expenses in our digital segment increased to $6.9 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020 from $6.7 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2019, an increase of $0.2 million. The increase was primarily due to an increase in bad debt expense.

Radio

Net Revenue. Net revenue in our radio segment decreased to $6.8 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2020 from $14.4 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2019. This decrease of approximately $7.6 million, or 53%, in net revenue was primarily due to decreases in local and national advertising revenue, partially offset by an increase in political advertising revenue. The overall decrease was as a result primarily of the continuing economic crisis resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, ratings declines and competitive factors with other Spanish-language broadcasters, and changing demographic preferences of audiences. We have previously noted a trend for advertising to move increasingly from traditional media, such as radio, to new media, such as digital media, and we expect this trend to continue. This trend has had a more significant impact on our radio revenue as compared to television revenue, and we expect that this trend will also continue.

Direct operating expenses in our radio segment decreased to $6.1 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2020 from $9.5 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2019, a decrease of $3.4 million. The decrease was primarily due to decreases in expenses associated with the decrease in advertising revenue and a decrease in salary expense.

Direct operating expenses in our radio segment decreased to $13.8 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020 from $19.0 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2019, a decrease of $5.2 million. The decrease was primarily due to decreases in expenses associated with the decrease in advertising revenue and a decrease in salary expense.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses in our radio segment decreased to $3.0 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2020 from $4.4 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2019, a decrease of $1.4 million. The decrease was primarily due to decreases in salary expense and payroll tax expense.

Selling, general and administrative expenses in our radio segment decreased to $7.0 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020 from $9.2 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2019, a decrease of $2.2 million. The decrease was primarily due to decreases in salary expense and payroll tax expense.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

While we have a history of operating losses in some periods and operating income in other periods, we also have a history of generating significant positive cash flows from our operations. We had a net loss of $19.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2019, and net income of $12.2 million and $175.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. We had positive cash flow from operations of $31.5 million, $33.8 million and $301.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017, respectively. We generated cash flows from operations of $19.5 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020. For at least the next twelve months, we expect to fund our working capital requirements, capital expenditures and payments of principal and interest on outstanding indebtedness, with cash on hand and cash flows from operations.

Although we anticipate that revenue and cash flow from operations will decrease significantly due to the continuing economic crisis resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic and the continuing effects of that crisis, depending upon its extent and duration, we currently believe that our current cash position is capable of meeting our expenses for at least the next twelve months. We believe that our position is strengthened by cash and cash equivalents on hand, in the amount of $69.3 million, and available for sale marketable securities in the additional amount of $65.1 million, as of June 30, 2020. Our liquidity is not materially impacted by the amount held in accounts outside the United States as our operating cash flows are driven primarily by U.S. sources.

2017 Credit Facility

On November 30, 2017 (the “Closing Date”), we entered into our 2017 Credit Facility pursuant to the 2017 Credit Agreement. The 2017 Credit Facility consists of a $300.0 million senior secured Term Loan B Facility (the “Term Loan B Facility”), which was drawn in full on the Closing Date. In addition, the 2017 Credit Facility provides that we may increase the aggregate principal amount of the 2017 Credit Facility by up to an additional $100.0 million plus the amount that would result in our first lien net leverage ratio (as such term is used in the 2017 Credit Agreement) not exceeding 4.0 to 1.0, subject to us satisfying certain conditions.

Borrowings under the Term Loan B Facility were used on the Closing Date (a) to repay in full all of our and our subsidiaries’ then outstanding obligations under the previous 2013 credit agreement, or 2013 Credit Agreement, and to terminate the 2013 Credit Agreement, (b) to pay fees and expenses in connection with the 2017 Credit Facility, and (c) for general corporate purposes.

The 2017 Credit Facility is guaranteed on a senior secured basis by certain of our existing and future wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries, and is secured on a first priority basis by our and those subsidiaries’ assets.

Our borrowings under the 2017 Credit Facility bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the date when made at a rate per annum equal to either: (i) the Eurodollar Rate (as defined in the 2017 Credit Agreement) plus 2.75%; or (ii) the Base Rate (as defined in the 2017 Credit Agreement) plus 1.75%. As of June 30, 2020, the interest rate on our Term Loan B was 2.92%. The Term Loan B Facility expires on November 30, 2024 (the “Maturity Date”).

The amounts outstanding under the 2017 Credit Facility may be prepaid at our option without premium or penalty, provided that certain limitations are observed, and subject to customary breakage fees in connection with the prepayment of a Eurodollar rate loan. The principal amount of the Term Loan B Facility shall be paid in installments on the dates and in the respective amounts set forth in the 2017 Credit Agreement, with the final balance due on the Maturity Date.

Subject to certain exceptions, the 2017 Credit Facility contains covenants that limit the ability of us and our restricted subsidiaries to, among other things:

•

incur liens on our property or assets;

•

make certain investments;

•

incur additional indebtedness;

•

consummate any merger, dissolution, liquidation, consolidation or sale of substantially all assets;

•

dispose of certain assets;

•

make certain restricted payments;

•

make certain acquisitions;

•

enter into substantially different lines of business;

•

enter into certain transactions with affiliates;

•

use loan proceeds to purchase or carry margin stock or for any other prohibited purpose;

•

change or amend the terms of our organizational documents or the organization documents of certain restricted subsidiaries in a materially adverse way to the lenders, or change or amend the terms of certain indebtedness;

•

enter into sale and leaseback transactions;

•

make prepayments of any subordinated indebtedness, subject to certain conditions; and

•

change our fiscal year, or accounting policies or reporting practices.

The 2017 Credit Facility also provides for certain customary events of default, including the following:

•

default for three (3) business days in the payment of interest on borrowings under the 2017 Credit Facility when due;

•

default in payment when due of the principal amount of borrowings under the 2017 Credit Facility;

•

failure by us or any subsidiary to comply with the negative covenants and certain other covenants relating to maintaining the legal existence of the Company and certain of its restricted subsidiaries and compliance with anti-corruption laws;

•

failure by us or any subsidiary to comply with any of the other agreements in the 2017 Credit Agreement and related loan documents that continues for thirty (30) days (or ten (10) days in the case of failure to comply with covenants related to inspection rights of the administrative agent and lenders and permitted uses of proceeds from borrowings under the 2017 Credit Facility) after our officers first become aware of such failure or first receive written notice of such failure from any lender;

•

certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to us or any significant subsidiary;

•

final judgment is entered against us or any restricted subsidiary in an aggregate amount over $15.0 million, and either enforcement proceedings are commenced by any creditor or there is a period of thirty (30) consecutive days during which the judgment remains unpaid and no stay is in effect;

•

any material provision of any agreement or instrument governing the 2017 Credit Facility ceases to be in full force and effect; and

•

The Term Loan B Facility does not contain any financial covenants. In connection with our entering into the 2017 Credit Agreement, we and our restricted subsidiaries also entered into a Security Agreement, pursuant to which we and the Credit Parties each granted a first priority security interest in the collateral securing the 2017 Credit Facility for the benefit of the lenders under the 2017 Credit Facility.

On April 30, 2019, we entered into an amendment to the 2017 Credit Agreement, which became effective on May 1, 2019.

The carrying amount of the Term Loan B Facility as of June 30, 2020 was $214.7 million, net of $2.0 million of unamortized debt issuance costs and original issue discount. The estimated fair value of the Term Loan B Facility as of June 30, 2020 was $214.0 million. The estimated fair value is based on quoted prices in markets where trading occurs infrequently.

Share Repurchase Program

On July 13, 2017, our Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program of up to $15.0 million of our outstanding Class A common stock. On April 11, 2018, our Board of Directors approved the repurchase of up to an additional $15.0 million of our outstanding Class A common stock, for a total repurchase authorization of up to $30.0 million. On August 27, 2019, the Board of Directors approved the repurchase of up to an additional $15.0 million of the Company’s Class A common stock, for a total repurchase authorization of up to $45.0 million. Under the share repurchase program we are authorized to purchase shares from time to time through open market purchases or negotiated purchases, subject to market conditions and other factors. The share repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any time without prior notice. On March 26, 2020, we suspended share repurchases under the plan in order to preserve cash during the continuing economic crisis resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic.

In the three-month period ended June 30, 2020, we did not repurchase any shares of our Class A common stock. As of June 30, 2020, we have repurchased a total of approximately 8.6 million shares of our Class A common stock for aggregate purchase price of approximately $32.2 million, or an average price per share of $3.76, since the beginning of the share repurchase program. As of June 30, 2020, all such repurchased shares were retired.

Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA

Consolidated adjusted EBITDA (as defined below) decreased to $11.4 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020 compared to $20.6 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2019. As a percentage of net revenue, consolidated adjusted EBITDA decreased to 10% for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020 compared to 15% for the six-month period ended June 30, 2019.

Consolidated adjusted EBITDA, as defined in our 2017 Credit Agreement, means net income (loss) plus gain (loss) on sale of assets, depreciation and amortization, non-cash impairment charge, non-cash stock-based compensation included in operating and corporate expenses, net interest expense, other income (loss), non-recurring cash expenses, gain (loss) on debt extinguishment, income tax (expense) benefit, equity in net income (loss) of nonconsolidated affiliate, non-cash losses, syndication programming amortization less syndication programming payments, revenue from FCC spectrum incentive auction less related expenses, expenses associated with investments, acquisitions and dispositions and certain pro-forma cost savings. We use the term consolidated adjusted EBITDA because that measure is defined in our 2017 Credit Agreement and does not include gain (loss) on sale of assets, depreciation and amortization, non-cash impairment charge, non-cash stock-based compensation, net interest expense, other income (loss), non-recurring cash expenses, gain (loss) on debt extinguishment, income tax (expense) benefit, equity in net income (loss) of nonconsolidated affiliate, non-cash losses, syndication programming amortization less syndication programming payments, revenue from FCC spectrum incentive auction less related expenses, expenses associated with investments, acquisitions and dispositions and certain pro-forma cost savings.

Consolidated adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure. For a reconciliation of consolidated adjusted EBITDA to cash flows from operating activities, its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, please see page 35.

Cash Flow

Net cash flow provided by operating activities was $19.5 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020, compared to net cash flow provided by operating activities of $19.7 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2019. We had a net loss of $33.3 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020, which included non-cash items such as impairment loss of $39.8 million, depreciation and amortization expense of $8.4 million and non-cash stock-based compensation of $1.6 million. We had a net loss of $14.9 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2019, which included non-cash items such as impairment loss of $22.4 million with respect to our digital reporting unit, depreciation and amortization expense of $8.2 million and non-cash stock-based compensation of $1.6 million. We currently expect that cash flow from operating activities for the full year 2020 will decrease compared to 2019 due to the continuing economic crisis resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, and the continuing effects of that crisis, depending upon its extent and duration.

Net cash flow provided by investing activities was $25.0 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020, compared to net cash flow provided by investing activities of $6.2 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2019. During the six-month period ended June 30, 2020, we had proceeds of $26.9 million from the maturity of marketable securities and proceeds of $4.0 million from the sale of television station KMCC-TV, spent $5.7 million in net capital expenditures and spent $0.2 million to purchase intangible assets. During the six-month period ended June 30, 2019, we had proceeds of $21.7 million from the maturity of marketable securities, spent $14.0 million in net capital expenditures and spent $1.2 million to purchase marketable securities. We anticipate that our capital expenditures will be approximately $7.5 million during the full year 2020. Of this amount, we expect that approximately $3.2 million will be expended in connection with the required relocation of certain of our television stations to a different channel as part of the broadcast television repack following the FCC auction for broadcast spectrum, which amount we expect to be reimbursed to us by the FCC. The amount of our anticipated capital expenditures may change based on future changes in business plans, our financial condition and general economic conditions. We expect to fund capital expenditures with cash on hand and any net cash flow from operations.

Net cash flow used in financing activities was $8.4 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020, compared to net cash flow used in financing activities of $20.0 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2019. During the six-month period ended June 30, 2020, we made dividend payments of $6.3 million, principal debt repayments of $1.5 million, and spent $0.5 million for the repurchase of Class A common stock. During the six-month period ended June 30, 2019, we made dividend payments of $8.5 million, principal debt payments of $1.5 million and spent $9.0 million for the repurchase of Class A common stock and $0.8 million for taxes related to shares withheld for share-based compensation plans.

ITEM 3.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

General

Market risk represents the potential loss that may impact our financial position, results of operations or cash flows due to adverse changes in the financial markets. We are exposed to market risk from changes in the base rates on our Term Loan B.

Interest Rates

As of June 30, 2020, we had $216.7 million of variable rate bank debt outstanding under our 2017 Credit Facility. The debt bears interest at the three-month Eurodollar rate plus a margin of 2.75%.

Because our debt is subject to interest at a variable rate, our earnings will be affected in future periods by changes in interest rates. If the Eurodollar were to increase by a hypothetical 100 basis points, or one percentage point, from its June 30, 2020 level, our annual interest expense would increase and cash flow from operations would decrease by approximately $2.2 million based on the outstanding balance of our term loan as of June 30, 2020.

Foreign Currency

We have foreign currency risks related to our revenue and operating expenses denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. Our historical revenues have primarily been denominated in U.S. dollars, and the majority of our current revenues continue to be, and are expected to remain, denominated in U.S. dollars. However, we have operations in countries other than the United States, primarily related to our Headway business, and as a result we expect an increasing portion of our future revenues to be denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, primarily the Mexican peso, Argentine peso and various other Latin American currencies. The effect of an immediate and hypothetical 10% adverse change in foreign exchange rates on foreign-denominated accounts receivable at June 30, 2020 would not be material to our overall financial condition or consolidated results of operations. Our operating expenses are generally denominated in the currencies of the countries in which our operations are located, primarily the United States and, to a much lesser extent, Spain, Mexico, Argentina and other Latin American countries. Increases and decreases in our foreign-denominated revenue from movements in foreign exchange rates are partially offset by the corresponding decreases or increases in our foreign-denominated operating expenses.

Based on recent inflation trends, the economy in Argentina has been classified as highly inflationary. As a result, the Company applied the guidance in ASC 830 by remeasuring non-monetary assets and liabilities at historical exchange rates and monetary-assets and liabilities using current exchange rates (see Note 2 to Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).

As our international operations grow, our risks associated with fluctuation in currency rates will become greater, and we will continue to reassess our approach to managing this risk. In addition, currency fluctuations or a weakening U.S. dollar can increase the amount of operating expense of our international operations, primarily those related to our Headway business. To date, we have not entered into any foreign currency hedging contracts, since exchange rate fluctuations historically have not had a material impact on our operating results and cash flows.

ITEM 4.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

We conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. Based on this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that, as of the evaluation date, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting identified in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, as described below.

Notwithstanding the conclusion that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of the end of the period covered by this report, we believe that our consolidated financial statements and other information contained in this quarterly report present fairly, in all material respects, our business, financial condition and results of operations for the interim periods presented.

Material Weakness

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company's annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

As previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, a material weakness in our internal controls existed as of December 31, 2019 relating to internal controls over our digital segment which includes the Headway business, which we acquired in April 2017. Although substantial progress has been made in remediating this material weakness, it has not been fully remediated, and therefore this control weakness continues to constitute a material weakness. The material weakness consists of (a) control deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting related to revenue in our digital business which includes both the Headway business, as well as our legacy digital business, and (b) deficiencies in internal controls over financial reporting in Headway relating to a number of areas, including accounts receivable, accounts payable, operating expenses, intercompany accounts and income taxes.

Following our acquisition of Headway, management implemented controls over Headway relating to these areas; however, management has determined that these controls were not designed and/or implemented with an adequate precision level such that they would prevent or detect the reporting of inaccurate information, which in turn could lead to a material misstatement.

Although this control weakness did not result in any material misstatement of our consolidated financial statements for the periods presented, it could lead to a material misstatement of account balances or disclosures. Accordingly, management has concluded that this control weakness constitutes a material weakness.

Management’s Plan for Remediation

With respect to the material control weakness described above, management has continued to test and evaluate the elements of the remediation plan implemented to date, as further described below. These elements include:

•

providing additional technical training for accounting personnel tasked with review of revenue contracts in our digital segment;

•

implementing enhancing increased monitoring controls over information obtained from third parties relating to revenue in our digital segment;

•

redesigning certain controls at Headway to increase the level of precision related to accounts receivable, accounts payable, operating expenses, intercompany accounts and income taxes;

•

hiring additional management, accounting, finance and information technology personnel in certain of our foreign locations to strengthen our accounting resources in these locations; and

•

providing additional internal controls training for employees in key internal control roles in the digital segment.

We have designed and implemented the above changes. However, these changes have not been operating long enough to evaluate their operating effectiveness and are subject to continued management review, supported by confirmation and testing, as well as continued Audit Committee oversight. Based on management’s review and the oversight of the Audit Committee to date, we have determined that, although substantial progress has been made in remediating this material weakness, the weakness has not been fully remediated as of the date of this quarterly report.

As we continue to further evaluate and test the remediation plan outlined above, we may also identify additional measures to address the material weakness or modify certain of the remediation procedures described above. We also may implement additional changes to our internal control over financial reporting as may be appropriate in the course of remediating the material weakness. Management, with the oversight of the Audit Committee, will continue to take steps necessary to remedy the material weakness to reinforce the overall design and capability of our control environment.

Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls

Our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

Changes in Internal Control

Other than changes noted above to remediate the previously-identified material weaknesses, there have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

On July 13, 2017, our Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program of up to $15.0 million of our outstanding Class A common stock. On April 11, 2018, our Board of Directors approved the repurchase of up to an additional $15.0 million of our Class A common stock, for a total repurchase authorization of up to $30.0 million. On August 27, 2019, the Board of Directors approved the repurchase of up to an additional $15.0 million of the Company’s Class A common stock, for a total repurchase authorization of up to $45.0 million. Under the share repurchase program we are authorized to purchase shares from time to time through open market purchases or negotiated purchases, subject to market conditions and other factors. The share repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any time without prior notice. On March 26, 2020, we suspended share repurchases under the plan in order to preserve cash during the continuing economic crisis resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic.

In the three-month period ended June 30, 2020, we did not repurchase any shares of our Class A common stock. As of June 30, 2020, we have repurchased a total of approximately 8.6 million shares of our Class A common stock for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $32.2 million, or an average price per share of $3.76, since the beginning of the share repurchase program. As of June 30, 2020, all such repurchased shares were retired.
