Radio One, Inc. Adjusts Second Quarter Results Upwards

Adjustments effect non-cash items only

WASHINGTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 14, 2007--Radio One, Inc. (NASDAQ:ROIAK and ROIA) (the "Company") reported revised results for the quarter ended June 30, 2007. On August 2, 2007, Radio One, Inc. issued a press release announcing results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, a copy of which was furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form 8-K on August 2, 2007. We are amending the results to correct the amounts of Equity in Loss of Affiliated Company and Benefit for Income Taxes in Results of Operations and Total Assets, Total Liabilities and Total Stockholders' Equity in its Selected Balance Sheet Data. After correcting these amounts, the Net Loss for the three months ended June 30, 2007 decreased $1.3 million from the $7.6 million previously reported in the press release to $6.3 million, and the Net Loss for the six months ended June 30, 2007 decreased $1.4 million from $6.9 million to $5.5 million. Diluted earnings per share for the three months ended June 30, 2007 improved from a loss of $(.08) per share previously reported in the press release to $(.06) per share, and the diluted earnings per share for the six months ended June 30, 2007 improved $.01 from $(.07) to $(.06) per share. This correction impacts only the referenced accounts and balance sheet categories and has no impact on cash, operating cash flow or station operating income.

The change in the Loss in Affiliated Company was related to further research of the accounting requirements under our hypothetical liquidation at book value approach as our allocable share of our affiliated company's losses increased due to the composition of its capital structure. The increased Benefit for Income Taxes was the result of further clarification of the accounting for Section 162(m) based on the amended proxy disclosure rules, the impact of the change in Equity in Loss of Affiliated Company and a modification of our annual effective income tax rate.

The changes are reflected in the Form 10-Q filed by the Company on August 9, 2007 and can be accessed at http://www.sec.gov or on the Company's website at www.radio-one.com (investor relations). The following table sets forth the line items impacted by the revisions described above.
