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 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, 2008, and those described from time to time in our future reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC).

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 June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008 and for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 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, 2008, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008.
     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. We evaluated subsequent events after the balance sheet date of June 30, 2009 through the financial statements issuance date of August 12, 2009. The results of operations for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the results for a full year.
2. Stockholders’ Deficit
     (a) Series C Convertible Preferred Stock
     On December 23, 2004, in connection with the closing of the merger agreement, dated October 5, 2004, with CBS Radio (formerly known as Infinity Media Corporation, CBS Radio), a division of CBS Corporation, 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 CBS Radio (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, $0.0001 par value per share (the Class A common stock).
     Under the terms of the certificate of designation governing the Series C preferred stock, the holder of the 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.
     In connection with the closing of the merger transaction, we also entered into a registration rights agreement with CBS Radio, pursuant to which, CBS Radio may instruct us to file up to three registration statements, on a best efforts basis, with the 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, $0.0001 par value per share (the 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) Share-Based Compensation Plans
2006 Omnibus Equity Compensation Plan
     In July 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, and together with the 1999 ISO Plan, the 1999 Stock Option Plans). 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 on November 2, 2009.
Stock Options
     Stock options have only been granted to employees and 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, 2008 and June 30, 2009, and changes during the six-months ended June 30, 2009, is presented below (in thousands, except per share data):

     During the six-months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, 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.

Nonvested Shares
     Nonvested shares (restricted stock or restricted stock units) are awarded to employees under our Omnibus Plan. In general, nonvested shares will vest over three to five years and are subject to the employees continuing service to us. 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.

3. Basic and Diluted Net (Loss) Income Per Common Share
     Basic net (loss) income per common share was computed by dividing net (loss) income 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 (loss) income 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 three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, since their effect would be anti-dilutive. If included, the common stock equivalents for these periods would have amounted to zero for all periods; excluding the three-months period ended June 30, 2008, which would have amounted to three.

4. Operating Segments
     Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) 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.

6. Income Taxes
     We have determined that due to a number of reasons, we are no longer able to estimate our annual effective tax rate during our interim periods, which would be applied to our pre-tax ordinary income. In accordance with FASB Interpretation No. 18, “Accounting for Income Taxes in Interim Periods”, we are calculating our effective income tax rate using a year to date income tax calculation. 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 tax rate is impacted by the establishment of a valuation allowance on substantially all of our deferred tax assets.
     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 2005 through 2008. The tax years that remain subject to assessment of additional liabilities by the Puerto Rico tax authority are 2004 through 2008.
     Based on our evaluation, we have concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in our consolidated financial statements, as of June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008.
7. Litigation
     We are subject to certain legal proceedings and claims that have arisen in the ordinary course of business and have not been fully adjudicated. In our opinion, we do not have a potential liability related to any current legal proceedings and claims that would individually or in the aggregate have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or operating results. However, the results of legal proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty. Should we fail to prevail in any of these legal matters or should all of these legal matters be resolved against us in the same reporting period, the operating results of a particular reporting period could be materially adversely affected.
     Wolf, et al., Litigation
     There is a pending litigation claim against us, certain of our former and current directors and officers concerning which such directors and officers may seek indemnification. On November 28, 2001, a complaint was filed against us in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (the Southern District of New York) and was amended on April 19, 2002. The amended complaint alleges that the named plaintiff, Mitchell Wolf, purchased shares of our Class A common stock pursuant to the October 27, 1999, prospectus and registration statement relating to our initial public offering which closed on November 2, 1999 (the IPO). The complaint was brought on behalf of Mr. Wolf and an alleged class of similarly situated purchasers against us, eight underwriters and/or their successors-in-interest who led or otherwise participated in our IPO, two members of our senior management team, one of whom is our Chairman of the Board of Directors, and an additional director, referred to collectively as the individual defendants. The complaint was never served upon the individual defendants.
     This case is one of more than 300 similar cases brought by similar counsel against more than 300 issuers, 40 underwriters and 1,000 individual defendants alleging, in general, violations of federal securities laws in connection with initial public offerings, in particular, failing to disclose that the underwriters allegedly solicited and received additional, excessive and undisclosed commissions from certain investors in exchange for which they allocated to those investors material portions of the restricted shares issued in connection with each offering. All of these cases, including the one involving us, have been assigned for consolidated pretrial purposes to one judge of the Southern District of New York. The issuer defendants in the consolidated cases (collectively, the Issuer Defendants) filed motions to dismiss the consolidated cases. These motions to dismiss covered issues common among all Issuer Defendants and issues common among all underwriter defendants (collectively, the Underwriter Defendants) in the consolidated cases. As a result of these motions, the Individual Defendants were dismissed from one of the claims against them, specifically the

Section 10b-5 claim. On September 21, 2007, Kaye Scholer LLP, on behalf of the individual defendants, executed a tolling agreement with plaintiffs providing for the dismissal without prejudice of all claims against the individual defendants upon the provision to plaintiffs of documentation showing that SBS has entity coverage for the period in question. Documentation of such coverage was subsequently provided to plaintiffs on December 19, 2007.
     On August 31, 2005, the Southern District of New York issued an order of preliminary approval of a settlement proposal among the investors in the plaintiff class, the issuer defendants (including us) and the issuer defendants’ insurance carriers (the Issuers Settlement). The principal components of the Issuers Settlement were: 1) a release of all claims against the issuer defendants and their directors, officers and certain other related parties arising out of the alleged wrongful conduct in the amended complaint; 2) the assignment to the plaintiffs of certain of the issuer defendants’ potential claims against the Underwriters; and 3) a guarantee by the insurers to the plaintiffs of the difference between $1.0 billion and any lesser amount recovered by the plaintiffs from the Underwriter Defendants. The payments were to be charged to each issuer defendant’s insurance policy on a pro rata basis.
     On October 13, 2004, the Southern District of New York granted plaintiffs’ motion for class certification in six “focus cases” out of the more than 300 consolidated class actions, but on December 5, 2006, the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit (the Second Circuit) reversed the order, holding that plaintiffs could not satisfy the predominance requirement for a Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 23(b) (3) class action. On June 25, 2007, in light of the Second Circuit’s reversal of the class certification order and its subsequent denial of plaintiffs’ petition for a rehearing or rehearing en banc, the Southern District of New York entered a stipulation between plaintiffs and the Issuer Defendants, terminating the proposed Issuers Settlement which the Southern District of New York had preliminarily approved on August 31, 2005. On September 27, 2007, plaintiffs filed a renewed motion for class certification with respect to the six focus cases, based on newly proposed class definitions. On October 10, 2008, at plaintiffs’ request, the Southern District of New York ordered the withdrawal without prejudice of plaintiffs’ renewed motion, which had been fully briefed and was sub judice.
     On August 14, 2007, plaintiffs filed amended complaints in the six “focus cases” and amended master allegations in the consolidated actions. On November 13, 2007, the Underwriter Defendants and Issuer Defendants moved to dismiss the amended complaints in the six “focus cases.” On March 26, 2008, the Southern District of New York granted in part the motion as to a subset of plaintiffs’ Section 11 claims, but denied the motion as to plaintiffs’ other claims. We are not named in any of the six “focus cases.”
     On January 7, 2008, the Underwriter Defendants filed a motion (in which the issuer defendants joined) to strike class allegations in 26 of the consolidated cases, including the case against us, on the ground that plaintiffs lacked a putative class representative in those cases at the time of their May 30, 2007 oral motion.
     On May 13, 2008, the Southern District of New York issued an order granting the motion in part and striking certain of the class allegations relating to the Section 10b-5 claims in 8 of the 26 actions, including the action against us. The order also requires plaintiffs to make certain disclosures with respect to the putative class representatives in the remaining 18 actions. Once the disclosures are filed, Defendants may seek clarification of the Southern District of New York’s May 13, 2008 order with respect to the status of the remaining 10b-5-related class allegations in the other 8 actions, including the action against us, as well as the status of the Section 11-related class allegations.
     On June 11, 2009, pursuant to a motion filed on April 2, 2009, the Southern District of New York issued a preliminary order of approval of a settlement of all of the consolidated cases, including the case against us, and set a hearing on final approval for September 10, 2009. If finally approved, the settlement will result in a release of all claims against the Underwriter and Issuer Defendants, and their officers and directors (the settling defendants), in exchange for an aggregate sum of approximately $600 million (the settlement amount) to be paid into a settlement fund for the benefit of the class plaintiffs. SBS’ and the individual defendants’ share of the settlement amount would be fully funded by insurance. Based on the current developments, we believe that it is unlikely that this litigation will result in any material liability to us or the individual defendants that would not be covered by existing insurance.
8. Impairment of FCC Broadcasting Licenses and Restructuring Costs
     FCC Broadcasting Licenses
     We generally perform our annual impairment test of our indefinite-lived intangibles during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year but, given the deteriorating economic conditions and revenue declines in the broadcasting industry, we performed an interim impairment test on March 31, 2009.
     As a result of our interim impairment testing, for the six-months ended June 30, 2009, we recorded a non-cash impairment loss of approximately $10.1 million that reduced the carrying values of our FCC broadcasting licenses in our Chicago and San Francisco markets. The tax impact of the impairment loss was an approximate $4.1 million tax benefit, which was related to the reduction of the book/tax basis differences on our FCC broadcasting licenses.
     The impairment loss was due to changes in estimates and assumptions which were primarily: (a) lower industry advertising revenue growth projections in our respective markets, and (b) lower industry profit margins.
     We adopted the provision of FASB Staff Position No. 142-3, “Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets” (FSP FAS No. 142-3) as of January 1, 2009. FSP FAS No. 142-3 amends the factors that should be considered in developing renewal or

13


Table of Contents

extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under SFAS No. 142. More specifically, FSP FAS No. 142-3 removes the requirement under paragraph 11 of SFAS No. 142 to consider whether an intangible asset can be renewed without substantial cost or material modifications to the existing terms and conditions and instead, requires an entity to consider its own historical experience in renewing similar arrangements. The adoption of FSP FAS 142-3 did not have a material impact to our financial statements.
     Restructuring Costs
     As a result of the decrease in the demand for advertising and the continued deterioration of the economy, we began to implement a restructuring plan in the third quarter of fiscal year 2008 to reduce expenses throughout the Company. We have incurred restructuring costs totaling $3.0 million to date, which includes $0.6 million for the six-months ended June 30, 2009, related to the termination of various programming contracts and personnel. In addition, we continue to review further cost-cutting measures, as we continue to evaluate the scope and duration of the current economic slowdown and its impact on our operations and financial position. As of June 30, 2009, we had an outstanding liability of approximately $0.1 million included in account payable and accrued expenses primarily for severance payments that will be paid in the fiscal year 2009.
9. Derivative Instruments
     Accounting for Derivatives and Hedging Activities
     We only enter into derivative contracts to hedge against the potential impact of increases in interest rates on our debt instruments. We also only enter into derivative contracts that we intend to designate as a hedge of the variability of cash flows to be paid related to a recognized asset or liability (cash flow hedge).
     By using derivative financial instruments to hedge exposures to changes in interest rates, we expose ourselves to credit risk and market risk. Credit risk is the failure of the counterparty to perform under the terms of the derivative contract. We attempt to minimize the credit risk in derivative instruments by entering into transactions with high-quality counterparties whose credit rating is higher than Aa.
     Market risk is the adverse effect on the value of a derivative instrument that results from a change in interest rates. The market risk associated with interest-rate contracts is managed by establishing and monitoring parameters that limit the types and degree of market risk that may be undertaken.
     For all hedging relationships, we formally document the hedging relationship and its risk-management objective and strategy for undertaking the hedge, the hedging instrument, the hedged item, the nature of the risk being hedged, how the hedging instrument’s effectiveness in offsetting the hedged risk will be assessed prospectively and retrospectively, and a description of the method of measuring ineffectiveness. We also formally assess, both at the hedge’s inception and on an ongoing basis, whether the derivatives that are used in hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting cash flows of hedged items.
     We are accounting for our interest rate swaps as cash flow hedges, which requires us to recognize all derivative instruments on the balance sheet at fair value. The related gains or losses on these instruments are deferred in stockholders’ deficit as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). The deferred gains or losses on these transactions are recognized in income in the period in which the related items being hedged are recognized in expense. However, to the extent that the change in value of the derivative contracts does not offset the change in the value of the underlying transaction being hedged, that ineffective portion is immediately recognized into income. We recognize gains and losses immediately when the underlying transaction settles. For cash flow hedges in which hedge accounting is discontinued because it is determined that the derivative no longer qualifies as an effective cash flow hedge, we continue to carry the derivative instrument at its fair value on the consolidated balance sheet and recognize any subsequent changes in its fair value in earnings (change in fair value of derivative instrument).
     Derivatives and Hedging Activities
          At June 30, 2009, derivative financial instruments are comprised of the following (in thousands):
                                 
            Fixed              
    Notional     Interest     Expiration     Fair  
Agreement   Amount     Rate     Date     Value  
Interest rate swap
  $ 311,187       5.98 %   June 30, 2010   $ 9,163  
Interest rate swap
    6,911       6.31 %   January 4, 2017     529  
 
                           
 
  $ 318,098                     $ 9,692  
 
                           
     On June 29, 2005, we entered into a five-year interest rate swap agreement for the original notional principal amount of $324.2 million whereby we pay a fixed interest rate of 5.98%, as compared to interest at a floating rate equal to three-month LIBOR plus 175 basis points. The interest rate swap amortization schedule is identical to the First Lien Credit Facility amortization schedule during June 30, 2005 to June 30, 2010, which has an effective date of June 29, 2005, quarterly notional reductions and an expiration date of June 30, 2010.

     In September and October 2008, the counterparty to this interest rate swap, Lehman Brothers Special Financing Inc., and its parent and credit support provider, Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc., each filed for bankruptcy. Based on these bankruptcy filings and the information obtained prior to these filings, this cash flow hedge no longer qualifies for hedge accounting. Therefore, the change in fair value from September 15, 2008, the last time this hedge was determined to be effective, to date, is recorded in earnings as a “Change in fair value of derivative instrument”.
     On September 15, 2008, the accumulated other comprehensive loss associated with this hedge was $7.8 million and will be reclassified into earnings (interest expense) over the remaining life of the hedge, which terminates on June 30, 2010. During the three- and six-months ended June 30, 2009, $1.5 million and $2.7 million, respectively, were reclassified and recorded as interest expense. During the fiscal year December 31, 2009, we estimate that $5.4 million will be reclassified and recorded as interest expense.
     On January 4, 2007, we entered into a ten-year interest rate swap agreement for the original notional principal amount of $7.7 million whereby we 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. 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.

10. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
     Cash and cash equivalents, receivables, as well as accounts payable, and other current liabilities, as reflected in the consolidated financial statements, approximate fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments. The estimated fair value of our other long-term debt instruments, approximate their carrying amounts as the interest rates approximate our current borrowing rate for similar debt instruments of comparable maturity, or have variable interest rates.
     Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information and information about the financial instrument. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.

     The fair value estimates of these financial instruments were based upon either: (a) market quotes from a major financial institution taking into consideration the most recent market activity, or (b) a discounted cash flow analysis taking into consideration current rates.
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Overview
     We own and/or operate 21 radio stations in markets that reach approximately 48% of the U.S. Hispanic population. In addition, we own and operate two television stations and have various affiliation, distribution and/or programming agreements, which allow us to reach approximately 5.3 million households throughout the U.S., including Puerto Rico.
     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 usually 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.
     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. We format the programming of each of our radio stations to capture a substantial share of the U.S. Hispanic audience in their respective markets. The U.S. Hispanic population is diverse, consisting of numerous identifiable groups from many different countries of origin and each with its own musical and cultural heritage. The music, culture, customs and Spanish dialects vary from one radio market to another. We strive to maintain familiarity with the musical tastes and preferences of each of the various Hispanic ethnic groups and customize our programming to match the local preferences of our target demographic audience in each market we serve. Our radio revenue is generated primarily from the sale of local and national advertising.
     Our television stations and related affiliates operate under the “MegaTV” brand. We have created a unique television format which focuses on entertainment, events and variety with high-quality production. Our programming is formatted to capture shares of the U.S. Hispanic audience by focusing on our core strengths as an “entertainment” company, thus offering a new alternative compared to the traditional Latino channels. MegaTV’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 develop and produce more than 70% of our programming and obtain other content from Spanish-language production partners. Our television revenue is generated primarily from the sale of local advertising and paid programming.
     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. LaMusica.com and our

network of station websites generate revenue primarily from advertising and sponsorship. In addition, the majority of our station websites simultaneously stream our stations’ content, which has broadened the audience reach of our radio stations. We also occasionally produce live concerts and events throughout the United States, including Puerto Rico.

Net Revenue
     The decrease in our consolidated net revenue of $8.1 million or 18% was mainly due to the decrease in our radio segment net revenue. Our radio segment net revenue decreased $7.8 million or 19%, primarily due to lower local and national sales caused mainly by the decline in economic conditions. The decrease in local sales occurred in all of our markets, with the exception of our Puerto Rico market. The decrease in national sales occurred in all of our markets. Our television segment net revenue decreased $0.3 million or 7%, primarily due to a decrease in local and barter sales.
Engineering and Programming Expenses
     The decrease in our consolidated engineering and programming expenses of $4.2 million or 27% was due to the decreases in both our radio and television segment expenses. Our radio segment expenses decreased $3.1 million or 31%, primarily related to decreases in compensation and benefits for technical and programming personnel and audience research expenses due to headcount reductions. Our television segment expenses decreased $1.1 million or 21%, primarily due to decreases in original produced programming and compensation and benefits for our technical and programming personnel due to headcount reductions.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
     The decrease in our consolidated selling, general and administrative expenses of $5.2 million or 29% was due to the decreases in both our radio and television segment expenses. Our radio segment expenses decreased $4.3 million or 30%, primarily due to a decrease in advertising, promotional and marketing costs, compensation and benefits for our selling, general and administrative personnel due to headcount reductions, barter expenses and sales commissions. Our television segment expenses decreased $0.8 million or 27%, primarily due to a decrease in advertising, promotional and marketing costs and barter expenses.
Corporate Expenses
     The decrease in corporate expenses was primarily a result of a decrease in professional fees, compensation and benefits for corporate personnel, and travel and entertainment expenses.
Depreciation and Amortization
     The increase in our consolidated depreciation and amortization expenses is directly related to the increase in capital expenditures throughout our Company in the fiscal year 2008, but mainly in our television segment.
Impairment of FCC Broadcasting Licenses and Restructuring Costs
     As a result of the decrease in the demand for advertising and the continued deterioration of the economy, we began to implement a restructuring plan in the third quarter of fiscal year 2008 to reduce expenses throughout the Company. We have incurred restructuring costs totaling $3.0 million to date, which includes $0.1 million for the three-months ended June 30, 2009, related to the termination of various programming contracts and personnel. In addition, we continue to review further cost-cutting measures, as we continue to evaluate the scope and duration of the current economic slowdown and its impact on our operations and financial position.

Operating Income (Loss)
     The increase in operating income was mainly due to the decrease in the impairment of FCC broadcasting licenses and restructuring. Also contributing to the increase in operating income was a decrease in our operating expenses, offset by a decrease in our net revenue.
Interest Expense, Net
     In September and October 2008, the counterparty to one of our interest rate swaps, Lehman Brothers Special Financing Inc., and its parent and credit support provider, Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc., each filed for bankruptcy. Based on these bankruptcy filings and the information obtained prior to the filings, this cash flow hedge no longer qualifies for hedge accounting. On September 15, 2008, the Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss associated with this hedge was $7.8 million and this amount will be reclassified into earnings (interest expense) over the remaining life of the hedge, which terminates on June 30, 2010. During the three-months ended June 30, 2009, $1.5 million was reclassified and recorded as interest expense primarily causing the increase in interest expense, net. Also contributing to the increase in interest expense, net was a decrease in interest income, resulting from a general decline in interest rates on our lower cash balances.
Change in Fair Value of Derivative Instrument
     In September and October 2008, the counterparty to one of our interest rate swaps, Lehman Brothers Special Financing Inc., and its parent and credit support provider, Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc., each filed for bankruptcy. Based on these bankruptcy filings and the information obtained prior to the filings, this cash flow hedge no longer qualified for hedge accounting. Therefore, the change in fair value from March 31, 2009 to June 30, 2009 impacted our earnings, which totaled $0.4 million for the three-months ended June 30, 2009.
Income Taxes
     The income tax expense of $1.9 million arose primarily from the income tax expense resulting from the tax amortization of our FCC broadcasting licenses.
Net Income (Loss)
     The increase in net income was primarily due to the increase in operating income related primarily to the decreases in impairment of FCC broadcasting licenses and restructuring costs and operating expenses, partially offset by the decreases in net revenue and income tax benefit.

Net Revenue
     The decrease in our consolidated net revenue of $16.8 million or 21% was mainly due to the decrease in our radio segment net revenue. Our radio segment net revenue decreased $16.7 million or 23%, primarily due to lower local and national sales caused mainly by the decline in economic conditions. The decrease in local sales occurred in all of our markets, with the exception of our Chicago market. The decrease in national sales occurred in all of our markets. Our television segment net revenue decreased $0.1 million or 1%, primarily due to a decrease in local and barter sales.
Engineering and Programming Expenses
     The decrease in our consolidated engineering and programming expenses of $7.9 million or 26% was due to the decreases in both our radio and television segment expenses. Our radio segment expenses decreased $5.7 million or 28%, primarily related to decreases in compensation and benefits for technical and programming personnel and audience research expenses due to headcount reductions. Our television segment expenses decreased $2.2 million or 22%, primarily due to decreases in original produced programming and compensation and benefits for our technical and programming personnel due to headcount reductions.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
     The decrease in our consolidated selling, general and administrative expenses of $13.4 million or 36% was primarily due to the decreases in both our radio and television segment expenses. Our radio segment expenses decreased $12.4 million or 39%, primarily due to a decrease in advertising, promotional and marketing costs, sales commissions, barter expenses, the allowance for doubtful account provision, and compensation and benefits for our selling, general and administrative personnel due to headcount reductions. Our television segment expenses decreased $1.0 million or 18%, primarily due to a decrease in advertising, promotional and marketing costs and barter expenses.
Corporate Expenses
     The decrease in corporate expenses was primarily a result of a decrease in professional fees, travel and entertainment expenses, and compensation and benefits for corporate personnel.
Depreciation and Amortization
     The increase in our consolidated depreciation and amortization expenses is directly related to the increase in capital expenditures throughout our Company in the fiscal year 2008, but mainly in our television segment.
Impairment of FCC Broadcasting Licenses and Restructuring Costs
     As a result of our SFAS No. 142 impairment testing of our indefinite-lived intangible assets and goodwill, we recorded a non-cash impairment loss of approximately $10.1 million that reduced the carrying values of our FCC broadcasting licenses in our Chicago and San Francisco markets. The impairment loss was due to changes in estimates and assumptions which were primarily: (a) lower industry advertising revenue growth projections in our respective markets, and (b) lower industry profit margins.

21


Table of Contents

     As a result of the decrease in the demand for advertising and the continued deterioration of the economy, we began to implement a restructuring plan in the third quarter of fiscal year 2008 to reduce expenses throughout the Company. We have incurred restructuring costs totaling $3.0 million to date, which includes $0.6 million for the six-months ended June 30, 2009, related to the termination of various programming contracts and personnel. In addition, we continue to review further cost-cutting measures, as we continue to evaluate the scope and duration of the current economic slowdown and its impact on our operations and financial position.
Operating Loss
     The decrease in operating loss was mainly due to the decrease in the impairment of FCC broadcasting licenses and restructuring. Also contributing to the decrease in operating loss was a decrease in our operating expenses, offset by a decrease in our net revenue.
Interest Expense, Net
     In September and October 2008, the counterparty to one of our interest rate swaps, Lehman Brothers Special Financing Inc., and its parent and credit support provider, Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc., each filed for bankruptcy. Based on these bankruptcy filings and the information obtained prior to the filings, this cash flow hedge no longer qualifies for hedge accounting. On September 15, 2008, the Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss associated with this hedge was $7.8 million and this amount will be reclassified into earnings (interest expense) over the remaining life of the hedge, which terminates on June 30, 2010. During the six-months ended June 30, 2009, $2.7 million was reclassified and recorded as interest expense primarily causing the increase in interest expense, net. Also contributing to the increase in interest expense, net was a decrease in interest income, resulting from a general decline in interest rates on our lower cash balances.
Change in Fair Value of Derivative Instrument
     In September and October 2008, the counterparty to one of our interest rate swaps, Lehman Brothers Special Financing Inc., and its parent and credit support provider, Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc., each filed for bankruptcy. Based on these bankruptcy filings and the information obtained prior to the filings, this cash flow hedge no longer qualified for hedge accounting. Therefore, the change in fair value from December 31, 2008 to June 30, 2009 impacted our earnings, which totaled $2.5 million for the six-months ended June 30, 2009.
Income Taxes
     The income tax benefit of $0.4 million arose primarily from the impact of the reduction of our deferred tax liabilities related to the impairment of our FCC broadcasting licenses of approximately $4.1 million, offset primarily by income tax expense resulting from the tax amortization of our FCC broadcasting licenses.
Net Loss
     The decrease in net loss was primarily due to the decrease in operating loss related primarily to the decrease in impairment of FCC broadcasting licenses and restructuring costs and the decrease in operating expenses, partially offset by the decreases in net revenue and income tax benefit.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
     Our primary sources of liquidity are cash and cash equivalents ($37.1 million as of June 30, 2009) and cash expected to be provided by operations. Our cash flow from operations is subject to such factors as overall advertising demand, shifts in population, station listenership and viewership, demographics, audience tastes and fluctuations in preferred advertising media. Our ability to raise funds by increasing our indebtedness is limited by the terms of the certificates of designation governing our Series B preferred stock and the credit agreement governing our senior secured credit facility. Additionally, our certificates of designation 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.
     Our strategy is to primarily utilize cash flows from operations to meet our capital needs and contractual obligations. Management continually projects anticipated cash requirements and 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 agreement governing our senior secured credit facility due 2012, and capital expenditures, excluding the acquisitions of FCC licenses. While not significant to us to date, the disruptions in the capital and credit markets may result in increased borrowing costs associated with our short-term and long-term debt. 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 continue to deteriorate further in any material respect;
 
    we will continue to successfully implement our business strategy; and

22


Table of Contents

    we will not incur any material unforeseen liabilities, including but not limited to taxes, environmental liabilities, regulatory matters and legal judgments.
     As a result of the decrease in the demand for advertising and the continued deterioration of the economy, we began to implement a restructuring plan in the third quarter of fiscal year 2008 to reduce expenses throughout the Company and have incurred costs totaling $3.0 million to date, which includes $0.6 million for the six-months ended June 30, 2009, related to the termination of various programming contracts and personnel. In addition, we are reviewing other cost-cutting measures, as we continue to evaluate the scope and duration of the current economic slowdown and its continued impact on our operations.
     We continuously evaluate opportunities to make strategic acquisitions and/or dispositions, primarily in the largest Hispanic markets in the United States. We engage in discussions regarding potential acquisitions and/or dispositions 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.
     The following summary table presents a comparison of our capital resources for the six-months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, 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.

Capital Expenditures
     The decrease in our capital expenditures is a result of the completion of various capital projects, including the build-out and furnishing of the SBS Miami Broadcast Center that was completed in 2008. For the fiscal year 2009, we are projecting capital expenditures to be in the range of $1.2 to $3.0 million, which is a significant decrease from the prior year.
Net Cash Flows Provided by (Used in) Operating Activities
     Changes in our net cash flows from operating activities were primarily a result of the decrease in cash paid to vendors, including interest.
Net Cash Flows Used in Investing Activities
     Changes in our net cash flows from investing activities were a result of the decrease in our capital expenditures due to the completion of various capital projects in 2008, primarily the build-out and furnishing of the SBS Miami Broadcast Center.
Net Cash Flows Used in Financing Activities
     There were no significant changes in our net cash flows from financing activities.
Recent Developments
NASDAQ Delisting Letter and Temporary Postponement
     On October 22, 2008, we received a notification letter (the Letter) from The Nasdaq Stock Market (Nasdaq), notifying us that NASDAQ has suspended, for a three-month period, effective October 16, 2008, the enforcement of the rule requiring a minimum bid price and market value of publicly held shares (the Rule). NASDAQ has said that it will not take any action to delist any security for these concerns during the suspension period. The Letter stated that, given the current extraordinary market conditions, the suspension would remain in effect through Friday, January 16, 2009. Subsequently, NASDAQ extended the suspension through July 31, 2009.

23


Table of Contents

     We had previously received a Staff Deficiency Letter from Nasdaq on August 20, 2008 indicating that the minimum bid price of our common stock had fallen below $1.00 for 30 consecutive trading days, and that it was therefore not in compliance with Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4450(b). The Staff Deficiency Letter further provided that in accordance with the Nasdaq Marketplace Rules, we would be provided 180 calendar days, or until February 17, 2009, to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement.
     We had 124 calendar days remaining in our compliance period as of October 16, 2008, the effective date of NASDAQ’s suspension. Upon reinstatement of the rules on July 31, 2009, we will have the same number of days remaining, or until on or about December 4, 2009, to regain compliance. We may regain compliance, either during the suspension or during the compliance period resuming after the suspension, by achieving a $1.00 closing bid price for a minimum of 10 consecutive trading days.
     During this interim period, our common stock is expected to continue to trade on The NASDAQ Global Market. If compliance with Marketplace Rule 4450(b) cannot be demonstrated on or about December 4, 2009, our common stock will be subject to delisting from The NASDAQ Global Market.
     We intend to use all reasonable efforts to maintain the listing of our common stock on the Nasdaq Global Market, but there can be no guarantee that we will regain compliance with the continued listing requirements, or will be able to demonstrate a plan to sustain compliance in order to avoid delisting from the Nasdaq Global Market.
Dividend Payment on the Series B Preferred Stock
     Under the terms of our Series B preferred stock, the holders of the outstanding shares of the Series B preferred stock are entitled to receive, when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors, dividends on the Series B preferred stock at a rate of 10 3/4 % per year, of the $1,000 liquidation preference per share, payable quarterly in arrears. On August 11, 2009 and May 12, 2009, our Board of Directors under management’s recommendation determined that, based on, among other things, the current economic environment and future cash requirements, it would not be prudent to declare or pay the October 15, 2009 and July 15, 2009 cash dividends in the aggregate amount of approximately $5.0 million. Under the Series B preferred stock certificate of designations, failure to make four consecutive quarterly cash dividend payments will result in the right of the holders of the Series B preferred stock to elect two directors to the board.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
     We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future material effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenue or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.
Item 4T.   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, 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 June 30, 2009 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 5.   Other Information
     Effective as of August 11, 2009, Antonio S. Fernandez voluntarily resigned from our board of directors (the Board). Mr. Fernandez’ resignation was due to personal reasons as he could no longer devote the time and attention required to adequately fulfill his responsibilities as a member of the Board and not as a result of any disagreement with the Company. Mr. Fernandez was the chairman of the Audit Committee and a member of the Compensation Committee. Accordingly, our Board is now comprised of Raul Alarcon, Jr., Joseph A. Garcia, Jose A. Villamil, Mitchell A. Yelen and Jason L. Shrinsky.
