Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
     This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains both historical and forward-looking statements. All statements other than statements of historical fact are, or may be deemed to be, forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These forward-looking statements are not based on historical facts, but rather reflect our current expectations concerning future results and events. These forward-looking statements generally can be identified by the use of statements that include phrases such as “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate”, “intend”, “estimate”, “plan”, “project”, “foresee”, “likely”, “will” or other words or phrases with similar meanings. Similarly, statements that describe our objectives, plans or goals are, or may be, forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be different from any future results, performance and anticipated achievements expressed or implied by these statements. We do not intend to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. In addition, forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from our Company’s historical experience and our present expectations or projections. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, those described in this report, in Part II, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” and elsewhere in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006, and those described from time to time in our future reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

SPANISH BROADCASTING SYSTEM, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Basis of Presentation
     The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Spanish Broadcasting System, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”, “we”, “us”, “our” or “SBS”). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006 and for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. They do not include all information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements as of, and for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006, included in our fiscal year end 2006 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Certain prior year amounts were reclassified to conform with the current year presentation.
     In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, which are all of a normal and recurring nature, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the interim periods. The results of operations for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2007 are not necessarily indicative of the results for a full year.
2. Acquisition of a Facility and Related Financing
     On January 4, 2007, SBS, through its wholly owned subsidiary, SBS Miami Broadcast Center, Inc. (“SBS Miami Broadcast Center”), completed the acquisition of certain real property located in Miami-Dade County, Florida pursuant to the purchase and sale agreement, dated August 24, 2006, as amended on September 25, 2006, as further amended on October 25, 2006 (the “Purchase Agreement”). The real property consists of 5.47 acres (234,208 square feet) and approximately 62,000 square feet of office space (the “Property”). The Property was acquired from 7007 Palmetto Investments, LLC (“Seller”), an unrelated third party, for a total purchase price of approximately $8.9 million, excluding closing costs and broker’s fees. During 2006, pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, we made deposits totaling approximately $1.0 million in escrow that were released at the closing and were applied to the purchase price. At December 31, 2006, these deposits were included in other assets in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet. We funded the purchase price using cash on hand and borrowings and we expect to incur significant construction costs for the new broadcasting facility. Upon the completion of construction at the building, we will consolidate our Miami radio and television operations at the new broadcasting facility.
     In connection with the acquisition of the Property, on January 4, 2007, SBS Miami Broadcast Center entered into a loan agreement (the “Loan Agreement”), a ten-year promissory note in the original principal amount of $7.7 million (the “Promissory Note”), and a Mortgage, Assignment of Rents and Security Agreement (the “Mortgage”) in favor of Wachovia Bank, National Association (“Wachovia”). The Promissory Note bears an interest rate equal to one-month LIBOR plus 125 basis points and requires monthly principal payments of $0.03 million with any unpaid balance due on its maturity date of January 4, 2017. The Promissory Note is secured by the Property and any related collateral.
     The terms of the loan include certain restrictions and covenants for SBS Miami Broadcast Center, which limit, among other things, the incurrence of additional indebtedness and liens. The Loan Agreement specifies a number of events of default (some of which are subject to applicable cure periods), including, among others, the failure to make payments when due, non-compliance with covenants and defaults under other agreements or instruments of indebtedness. Upon the occurrence of an event of default and expiration of any applicable cure periods, Wachovia may accelerate the loan and declare all amounts outstanding to be immediately due and payable.
     Additionally, on January 4, 2007, SBS Miami Broadcast Center entered into an interest rate swap arrangement (the “Swap Agreement”) for the original notional principal amount of $7.7 million whereby it will pay a fixed interest rate of 6.31% as compared to interest at a floating rate equal to one-month LIBOR plus 125 basis points on the Promissory Note. The interest rate swap amortization schedule is identical to the Promissory Note amortization schedule, which has an effective date of January 4, 2007, monthly notional reductions and an expiration date of January 4, 2017.
     In connection with the acquisition of the Property, we agreed to unconditionally guaranty all obligations of SBS Miami Broadcast Center pursuant to the Promissory Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage, the loan documents thereto, and the Swap Agreement, for the benefit of Wachovia and its affiliates (the “Guaranty”). In addition, the terms of the Guaranty contain certain financial covenants, which require us to maintain available liquidity of not less than 1.2 times the then outstanding principal balance of the loan made to SBS Miami Broadcast Center by Wachovia.

3. Stockholders’ Equity
  (a) Series C Convertible Preferred Stock
     On December 23, 2004, in connection with the closing of the merger agreement, dated October 5, 2004, with Infinity Media Corporation (“Infinity”), Infinity Broadcasting Corporation of San Francisco (“Infinity SF”) and SBS Bay Area, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of SBS (“SBS Bay Area”), we issued to Infinity (i) an aggregate of 380,000 shares of Series C convertible preferred stock, $0.01 par value per share (the “Series C preferred stock”), each of which is convertible at the option of the holder into twenty fully paid and non-assessable shares of our Class A common stock; and (ii) a warrant to purchase an additional 190,000 shares of Series C preferred stock, exercisable at any time from December 23, 2004 until December 23, 2008, at an exercise price of $300.00 per share (the “Warrant”).
     Under the terms of the certificate of designation governing the Series C preferred stock, the holder of Series C preferred stock has the right to convert each share into twenty fully paid and non-assessable shares of our Class A common stock. The shares of Series C preferred stock issued at the closing of the merger are convertible into 7,600,000 shares of our Class A common stock, subject to adjustment, and the Series C preferred stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrant is convertible into an additional 3,800,000 shares of our Class A common stock, subject to adjustment. To date, the Warrant has not been exercised.
     In connection with the closing of the merger transaction, we also entered into a registration rights agreement with Infinity, pursuant to which, following a period of one year, Infinity may instruct us to file up to three registration statements, on a best efforts basis, with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) providing for the registration for resale of the Class A common stock issuable upon conversion of the Series C preferred stock.
     We are required to pay holders of Series C preferred stock dividends on parity with our Class A common stock and Class B common stock, and each other class or series of our capital stock, if created, after December 23, 2004.
  (b) Class A and B Common Stock
     The rights of the holders of shares of Class A common stock and Class B common stock are identical, except for voting rights and conversion provisions. The Class A common stock is entitled to one vote per share and the Class B common stock is entitled to ten votes per share. The Class B common stock is convertible to Class A common stock on a share-for-share basis at the option of the holder at any time, or automatically upon the transfer to a person or entity which is not a permitted transferee. Holders of each class of common stock are entitled to receive dividends and, upon liquidation or dissolution, are entitled to receive all assets available for distribution to stockholders. The holders of each class have no preemptive or other subscription rights and there are no redemption or sinking fund provisions with respect to such shares. Each class of common stock is subordinate to our 10 3/4% Series B cumulative exchangeable redeemable preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share and liquidation preference of $1,000 per share (the “Series B preferred stock”) and on parity with the Series C preferred stock with respect to dividend rights and rights upon liquidation, winding up and dissolution of SBS.
  (c) Warrant
     In connection with the merger agreement with Infinity, as discussed in Note 3(a), we have a Warrant outstanding to ultimately purchase an aggregate of 3,800,000 shares of our Class A common stock, which expires on December 23, 2008.
  (d) Share-based Compensation Plans
  2006 Omnibus Equity Compensation Plan
     On July 16, 2006, we adopted an omnibus equity compensation plan (the “Omnibus Plan”) in which grants can be made to participants in any of the following forms: (i) incentive stock options, (ii) non-qualified stock options, (iii) stock appreciation rights, (iv) stock units, (v) stock awards, (vi) dividend equivalents, and (vii) other stock-based awards. The Omnibus Plan authorizes up to 3,500,000 shares of our Class A common stock for issuance, subject to adjustment in certain circumstances. The Omnibus Plan provides that the maximum aggregate number of shares of Class A common stock that may be granted, other than dividend equivalents, to any individual during any calendar year is 1,000,000 shares, subject to adjustments. In addition, the maximum aggregate number of shares of Class A common stock with respect to grants of stock units, stock awards and other stock-based awards that may be granted to any individual during a calendar year is also 1,000,000 shares, subject to adjustments.

  1999 Stock Option Plans
     In September 1999, we adopted an employee incentive stock option plan (the “1999 ISO Plan”) and a non-employee director stock option plan (the “1999 NQ Plan”). Options granted under the 1999 ISO Plan will vest according to terms to be determined by the compensation committee of our board of directors, and will have a contractual life of up to 10 years from the date of grant. Options granted under the 1999 NQ Plan will vest 20% upon grant and 20% each year for the first four years from the date of grant. All options granted under the 1999 ISO Plan and the 1999 NQ Plan vest immediately upon a change in control of SBS, as defined therein. A total of 3,000,000 shares and 300,000 shares of Class A common stock were reserved for issuance under the 1999 ISO Plan and the 1999 NQ Plan, respectively. Additionally, on November 2, 1999, we granted a stock option to purchase 250,000 shares of Class A common stock to a former director. This option vested immediately, and expires 10 years from the date of grant.
  (e) Stock-Based Compensation Expense
     The impact on our results of operations of recognizing stock-based compensation for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 were as follows (in thousands):
                                 
    Three-Months Ended     Nine-Months Ended  
    September 30,     September 30,  
    2007     2006     2007     2006  
Engineering and programming expenses
  $ 192       178     $ 569       533

Corporate expenses
    144       192       559       743  
 
                       
Total stock-based compensation expense
  $ 368       462     $ 1,229       1,542  
 
                       
     During the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, no stock options were exercised; therefore, no cash payments were received. In addition, we did not recognize a tax benefit on our stock-based compensation expense due to our valuation allowance on substantially all of our deferred tax assets.
  Stock Options
     Stock options have only been granted to employees or directors under our 1999 Stock Option Plans. Our stock options have various vesting schedules and are subject to the employees continuing service to SBS. We recognize compensation expense based on the estimated grant date fair value using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and recognize the compensation expense using a straight-line amortization method. When estimating forfeitures, we consider voluntary termination behaviors, as well as trends of actual option forfeitures. Ultimately, our stock-based compensation expense is based on awards that vest. Our stock-based compensation has been reduced for estimated forfeitures.
     A summary of the status of our stock options, as of December 31, 2006 and September 30, 2007, and changes during the nine-months ended September 30, 2007, is presented below (in thousands, except per share data):

  Nonvested Shares
     Nonvested shares (restricted stock) are awarded to employees under our Omnibus Plan. In general, nonvested shares vest over three to five years and are subject to the employees continuing service to SBS. The cost of nonvested shares is determined using the fair value of our common stock on the date of grant. The compensation expense is recognized over the vesting period.
     A summary of the status of our nonvested shares, as of December 31, 2006 and September 30, 2007, and changes during the nine-months ended September 30, 2007, is presented below (in thousands, except per share data):

4. Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share
     Basic net income (loss) per common share was computed by dividing net income (loss) applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and convertible preferred stock outstanding for each period presented, using the if converted method. Diluted net income (loss) per common share is computed by giving effect to common stock equivalents as if they were outstanding for the entire period.
     Common stock equivalents were not considered in the calculation for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2007 and for the three-month period ended September 30, 2006, since their effect would be anti-dilutive. If included, the common stock equivalents for these periods would have amounted to zero for both periods. During the three-month period ended September 30, 2007 and the nine-month period ended September 30, 2006, common stock equivalents included in the calculation amounted to five for both periods.

5. Operating Segments
     Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131, “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information,” establishes standards for the way public business enterprises report information about operating segments in annual financial statements and requires those enterprises to report selected information about operating segments in interim financial reports. We have two reportable segments: radio and television. The following summary table presents separate financial data for each of our operating segments (in thousands):

7. New Accounting Pronouncements
     In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS No. 157”), which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP, and enhances disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 applies when other accounting pronouncements require fair value measurements; it does not require new fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 or fiscal year 2008 for us. We are currently evaluating the impact that SFAS No. 157 may have on our consolidated financial statements.
     In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Liabilities — Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115” (“SFAS No. 159”). SFAS No. 159 permits entities to choose to measure certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses, arising subsequent to adoption, are reported in earnings. SFAS No. 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 or fiscal year 2008 for us. We are currently evaluating the impact that SFAS No. 159, if elected, may have on our consolidated financial statements.
8. Income Taxes
     Our income tax expense differs from the statutory federal tax rate of 35% and related statutory state tax rates, primarily as a result of the application of SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” (“SFAS No. 142”). Under SFAS No. 142, the reversal of our deferred tax liabilities related to our intangible assets could no longer be assured over our net operating loss carry forward period. Therefore, our effective book tax rate is impacted by establishing a valuation allowance on substantially all of our deferred tax assets.
     On January 1, 2007, we adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes-an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements in accordance with FASB Statement 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes”, and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition.
     We file federal, state and local income tax returns in the United States and Puerto Rico. The tax years that remain subject to assessment of additional liabilities by the United States federal, state, and local tax authorities are 2003 through 2006. The tax years that remain subject to assessment of additional liabilities by the Puerto Rico tax authority are 2002 through 2006.
     Based on our evaluation, we have concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in our consolidated financial statements. Our evaluation was performed for the tax years ended December 31, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005 and 2006, the tax years which remain subject to examination by tax jurisdictions as of September 30, 2007.
9. Litigation
     From time to time we are involved in litigation incidental to the conduct of our business, such as litigation on contractual matters and employee-related matters. In the opinion of management, such litigation is not likely to have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, financial position or liquidity.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Overview
     We are the largest publicly traded Hispanic-controlled media and entertainment company in the United States. We own and operate 20 radio stations in markets that reach approximately 51% of the U.S. Hispanic population, and two television stations, which reach approximately 1.5 million households in the South Florida market, and has national distribution through DIRECTV since October 17, 2007. Our radio stations are located in six of the top-ten Hispanic markets of Los Angeles, New York, Puerto Rico, Chicago, Miami and San Francisco. Los Angeles and New York have the largest and second largest Hispanic populations, and are also the largest and second largest radio markets in the United States in terms of advertising revenue, respectively. Our two television stations operate as one television operation, branded “MEGA TV”. As part of our operating business, we also operate LaMusica.com, Mega.tv, and our radio station websites which are bilingual (Spanish — English) websites providing content related to Latin music, entertainment, news and culture. We also occasionally produce live concerts and events throughout the United States and Puerto Rico.
     On March 1, 2006, we acquired television stations WSBS-TV (Channel 22, formerly known as WDLP-TV) and its derivative digital television station WSBS-DT (Channel 3, formerly known as WDLP-DT) in Key West, Florida and WSBS-CA (Channel 50, formerly known as WDLP-CA) in Miami, Florida, serving the South Florida market. On March 1, 2006, we also launched MEGA TV, our general interest Spanish-language television operation. MEGA TV’s programming is based on a strategy designed to showcase a combination of programs, ranging from televised radio-branded shows to general entertainment programs, such as music, celebrity, debate, interviews and personality based shows. As part of our strategy, we have incorporated certain of our on-air personalities into our programming, as well as including interactive elements to complement our Internet websites. We have developed approximately 70% of our programming and have commissioned other content from Spanish-language production partners. Our television revenue is generated primarily from the sale of local advertising and paid programming.
     The success of each of our stations depends significantly upon its audience ratings and share of the overall advertising revenue within its market. The broadcasting industry is a highly competitive business, but some barriers to entry do exist. Each of our stations competes with both Spanish-language and English-language stations in its market, as well as with other advertising media, such as newspapers, cable television, the Internet, magazines, outdoor advertising, satellite radio and television, transit advertising and direct mail marketing. Factors which are material to our competitive position include management experience, our stations’ rank in their markets, signal strength and frequency, and audience demographics, including the nature of the Spanish-language market targeted by a particular station.
     Our primary source of revenue is the sale of advertising time on our stations to local and national advertisers. Our revenue is affected primarily by the advertising rates that our stations are able to charge, as well as the overall demand for advertising time in each respective market. Seasonal net broadcasting revenue fluctuations are common in the broadcasting industry and are primarily due to fluctuations in advertising demand from local and national advertisers. Typically for the broadcasting industry, the first calendar quarter generally produces the lowest revenue. Our most significant operating expenses are compensation expenses, programming expenses, professional fees and advertising and promotional expenses. Our senior management strives to control these expenses, as well as other expenses, by working closely with local station management and others, including vendors.

     Net Revenue. The increase in our consolidated net revenue of $0.9 million or 2% was due to the increase in net revenue from our television segment of $1.1 million or 82%, offset by a slight decrease in our radio segment net revenue of $0.2 million. Our television segment net revenue growth was primarily due to MEGA TV establishing itself within the South Florida advertising community during the past 19 months, which resulted in an ability to increase advertising rates and sell more inventory. Our radio segment had a slight decrease in net revenue primarily due to lower local and barter sales, offset by an increase in national sales. The decrease in local sales occurred primarily in our Los Angeles, Puerto Rico, Chicago, and Miami markets, offset by an increase in our New York market. The decrease in barter sales occurred in our Puerto Rico and Los Angeles markets. The increase in national sales occurred primarily in our New York and Los Angeles markets, offset by our Miami market.
     Engineering and Programming Expenses. The decrease in our consolidated engineering and programming expenses of $0.2 million or 1% was mainly due to our television segment. Our television segment expenses decreased $0.6 million or 15%, primarily due to a decrease in original produced programming and compensation and benefits for our television programming personnel. Our radio segment expenses increased $0.4 million or 5%, primarily related to an increase in compensation and benefits for our radio programming personnel.
     Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. The decrease in our consolidated selling, general and administrative expenses of $0.7 million or 4% was mainly due to our radio segment. Our radio segment expenses decreased $0.9 million or 5%, primarily due to a decrease in cash advertising, promotional and marketing costs, and barter expense. Our television segment expenses increased $0.2 million or 13%, primarily due to the increase in professional fees, commission expense and various general expenses, offset by a decrease in cash advertising, promotional and marketing costs.
     Corporate Expenses. The increase in corporate expenses was mainly a result of increases in employee compensation and benefits, and legal and professional fees.
     Operating Income. The increase in operating income of $0.7 million or 6% was primarily related to our television segment’s operating loss decrease of $1.4 million or 31%, which was mainly related to an increase in net revenues and a decrease in engineering and programming expenses. The television segment’s operating loss decrease was offset by an increase in our corporate expenses of $0.8 million or 24%.
     Interest Expense, net. The decrease in interest expense, net, was primarily due to a decrease in interest expense related to lower outstanding principal balances.
     Income Taxes. The decrease in income taxes was primarily due to the decrease in the estimated effective tax rate, which continues to be impacted by a valuation allowance on substantially all of our deferred tax assets.
     Net Income. The increase in net income was primarily due to the decrease in income tax expense and increase in operating income.

     Net Revenue. The increase in our consolidated net revenue of $1.1 million or 1% was due to the increase in net revenue from our television segment of $4.0 million or 126%, offset by our radio segment net revenue decrease of $2.9 million or 2%. Our television segment growth was primarily due to (a) MEGA TV establishing itself within the South Florida advertising community during the past 19 months, which resulted in an ability to increase advertising rates and sell more inventory, and (b) our television results reflecting nine-months of revenue compared to the prior period’s results reflecting only seven-months of revenue. Our radio segment had a decrease in net revenue primarily due to lower local and barter sales. The decrease in local sales occurred primarily in our Los Angeles, Miami, and Puerto Rico markets, offset by an increase in our New York and San Francisco markets. The decrease in barter sales occurred in our Los Angeles and Puerto Rico markets.
     Engineering and Programming Expenses. The decrease in our consolidated engineering and programming expenses of $0.3 million or 1% was mainly due to our television segment. Our television segment expenses decreased $1.9 million or 16%, primarily due to a decrease in programming pre-launch costs, original produced programming, and compensation and benefits for our television programming personnel due to a reduction of headcount. Our radio segment expenses increased $1.6 million or 6%, primarily related to an increase in compensation and benefits for our radio programming personnel and music license fees.
     Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. The decrease in our consolidated selling, general and administrative expenses of $1.0 million or 2% was due to a combination of our television and radio segments expenses. Our television segment expenses decreased $0.5 million or 8%, primarily due to the decrease in cash advertising, promotional and marketing costs related to the prior year launching of MEGA TV. Our radio segment expenses decreased $0.5 million or 1%, primarily due to a decrease in local and national sales commissions, and barter expense. These decreases in our radio segment’s expenses were offset by an increase in compensation and benefits, and professional fees.
     Corporate Expenses. The increase in corporate expenses was mainly a result of increases in employee compensation and benefits, and office rent expense, offset by a decrease in legal and professional fees, and directors and officers insurance.
     Loss (Gain) on Sale of Assets, net. The prior period gain on sale of assets, net, is related to the sale of radio stations KZAB-FM and KZBA-FM, serving the Los Angeles, California market, which was completed on January 31, 2006, at which time we recognized a pre-tax gain of approximately $50.8 million.
     Operating Income. The decrease in operating income was primarily attributed to the gain on sale of assets, net, of $50.8 million which was recognized in the prior period, offset by an increase in consolidated net revenue and a decrease in consolidated operating expenses.
     Interest Expense, net. The decrease in interest expense, net, was primarily due to the elimination of interest expense incurred on our $100.0 million second lien credit facility, which was repaid on February 17, 2006.

Table of Contents

     Loss on Early Extinguishment of Debt. The prior period loss on early extinguishment of debt of $3.0 million was due to the prepayment premium and the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs related to the repayment of our $100.0 million second lien credit facility.
     Other Income (Expense). The increase in other income relates to the write-off of the unused portion of unearned revenue that expired. This unearned revenue relates to the MEGA TV acquisition advertising agreement that provides the seller with the opportunity to use $2.0 million of advertising per year, for three years.
     Income Taxes. The increase in income taxes was primarily due to the income tax benefit recognized in the prior period, which was related to the sale of radio stations KZAB-FM and KZBA-FM.
     Net Income. The decrease in net income was primarily due to the gain on sale of assets of $50.8 million and its related income tax benefit of $6.4 million, which were recognized in the prior period.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
     Our primary sources of liquidity are cash on hand, cash provided by operations and, to the extent necessary, undrawn commitments that are available under our $25.0 million revolving credit facility. Our ability to raise funds by increasing our indebtedness is limited by the terms of the certificates of designations governing our preferred stock and the credit agreement governing our first lien credit facility. Additionally, our certificates of designations and credit agreement each place restrictions on us with respect to the sale of assets, liens, investments, dividends, debt repayments, capital expenditures, transactions with affiliates and consolidations and mergers, among other things.
     Management believes that cash from operating activities, together with cash on hand, should be sufficient to permit us to meet our operating obligations in the foreseeable future, including, among other things, required quarterly interest and principal payments pursuant to the credit agreements governing our senior secured credit facility due 2012 and capital expenditures, excluding the acquisitions of FCC licenses. Assumptions (none of which can be assured) which underlie management’s beliefs, include the following:
    the demand for advertising within the broadcasting industry and economic conditions in general will not deteriorate in any material respect;
 
    we will continue to successfully implement our business strategy; and
 
    we will not incur any material unforeseen liabilities, including environmental liabilities and legal judgments.
     Our strategy is to primarily utilize cash flows from operations to meet our capital needs and contractual obligations. However, we also have bank borrowings available to meet our capital needs and contractual obligations and, when appropriate and, if available, will obtain financing by issuing debt or equity.
     We continuously evaluate opportunities to make strategic acquisitions, primarily in the largest Hispanic markets in the United States. We engage in discussions regarding potential acquisitions from time to time in the ordinary course of business. We anticipate that any future acquisitions would be financed through funds generated from permitted debt financing, equity financing, operations, asset sales or a combination of these or other available sources. However, there can be no assurance that financing from any of these sources, if necessary and available, can be obtained on favorable terms for future acquisitions.
     We had cash and cash equivalents of $63.8 million as of September 30, 2007.
     The following summary table presents a comparison of our capital resources for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, with respect to certain of our key measures affecting our liquidity. The changes set forth in the table are discussed below. This section should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes.

Changes in our net cash flows from investing activities were primarily a result of the following: (a) in 2007, we acquired a building and its related land and have begun making significant improvements to that building totaling $2.6 million and other capital expenditures of $4.1 million, and (b) in 2006, we received proceeds of $64.8 million for the sale of our Los Angeles stations KZAB-FM and KZBA-FM, offset by $18.5 million of payments made to acquire our television operation “MEGA TV” and capital expenditures of $6.7 million.
     Net Cash Flows Used In Financing Activities. Changes in our net cash flows from financing activities were primarily a result of the prior period repayment of our $100.0 million second lien credit facility and its related prepayment premium of $1.0 million.
Recent Developments
  Acquisition of a Facility and Related Financing
     On January 4, 2007, SBS, through its wholly owned subsidiary, SBS Miami Broadcast Center, Inc. (“SBS Miami Broadcast Center”), completed the acquisition of certain real property located in Miami-Dade County, Florida pursuant to the purchase and sale agreement, dated August 24, 2006, as amended on September 25, 2006, as further amended on October 25, 2006 (the “Purchase Agreement”). The real property consists of 5.47 acres (234,208 square feet) and approximately 62,000 square feet of office space (the “Property”). The Property was acquired from 7007 Palmetto Investments, LLC (“Seller”), an unrelated third party, for a total purchase price of approximately $8.9 million, excluding closing costs and broker’s fees. During 2006, pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, we made deposits totaling approximately $1.0 million in escrow that were released at the closing and were applied to the purchase price. At December 31, 2006, these deposits were included in other assets in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet. We funded the purchase price using cash on hand and borrowings and we expect to incur significant construction costs for the new broadcasting facility. Upon the completion of construction at the building, we will consolidate our Miami radio and television operations at the new broadcasting facility.
     In connection with the acquisition of the Property, on January 4, 2007, SBS Miami Broadcast Center entered into a loan agreement (the “Loan Agreement”), a ten-year promissory note in the original principal amount of $7.7 million (the “Promissory Note”), and a Mortgage, Assignment of Rents and Security Agreement (the “Mortgage”) in favor of Wachovia Bank, National Association (“Wachovia”). The Promissory Note bears an interest rate equal to one-month LIBOR plus 125 basis points and requires monthly principal payments of $0.03 million with any unpaid balance due on its maturity date of January 4, 2017. The Promissory Note is secured by the Property and any related collateral.
     The terms of the loan include certain restrictions and covenants for SBS Miami Broadcast Center, which limit, among other things, the incurrence of additional indebtedness and liens. The Loan Agreement specifies a number of events of default (some of which are subject to applicable cure periods), including, among others, the failure to make payments when due, non-compliance with covenants and defaults under other agreements or instruments of indebtedness. Upon the occurrence of an event of default and expiration of any applicable cure periods, Wachovia may accelerate the loan and declare all amounts outstanding to be immediately due and payable.

     Additionally, on January 4, 2007, SBS Miami Broadcast Center entered into an interest rate swap arrangement (the “Swap Agreement”) for the original notional principal amount of $7.7 million whereby it will pay a fixed interest rate of 6.31% as compared to interest at a floating rate equal to one-month LIBOR plus 125 basis points on the Promissory Note. The interest rate swap amortization schedule is identical to the Promissory Note amortization schedule, which has an effective date of January 4, 2007, monthly notional reductions and an expiration date of January 4, 2017.
     In connection with the acquisition of the Property, we agreed to unconditionally guaranty all obligations of SBS Miami Broadcast Center pursuant to the Promissory Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage, the loan documents thereto, and the Swap Agreement, for the benefit of Wachovia and its affiliates (the “Guaranty”). In addition, the terms of the Guaranty contain certain financial covenants, which require us to maintain available liquidity of not less than 1.2 times the then outstanding principal balance of the loan made to SBS Miami Broadcast Center by Wachovia.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
     We have no material changes to the disclosure on this matter made in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
     Evaluation Of Disclosure Controls And Procedures. Our principal executive and financial officers have conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our “disclosure controls and procedures”, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), to ensure that information we are required to disclose in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information we are required to disclose in such reports is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive and financial officers, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on that evaluation, our principal executive and financial officers concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.
     Changes In Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2007 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
