Accounting Policies [Abstract]

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and under the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") for interim financial information. In management’s opinion, the interim financial data presented herein include all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related financial information should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K (“Form 10-K”). There have been no significant changes to the Company’s accounting policies as described in Note 3 - Summary of significant accounting policies, in the notes to the consolidated financial statements in Item 8 of Part II of Form 10-K.

All amounts presented in these condensed consolidated financial statements are expressed in thousands of U.S. dollars, except share and per share amounts and unless otherwise noted.

The Company's results are subject to seasonal fluctuations and typically, revenues are lowest in the first calendar quarter of the year. Due to this seasonality, the results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year. The Company experiences further seasonality in odd versus even years as there tends to be more political activity in even years which can have a positive impact on advertising revenues.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts and operations of Urban One and subsidiaries in which Urban One has a controlling financial interest, which is generally determined when the Company holds a majority voting interest. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Non-controlling interests have been recognized where a controlling interest exists, but the Company owns less than 100% of the controlled entity.

The Company is required to include the financial statements of variable interest entities (“VIE”) in its consolidated financial statements. Under the VIE model, the Company consolidates an investment if it has control to direct the activities of the entity and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions. The most significant estimates and assumptions are used in determining: (i) estimates of future cash flows used to evaluate and recognize impairments; (ii) estimates of fair value of Employment Agreement Award (as defined below) and redeemable non-controlling interest in Reach Media; (iii) deferred taxes and related valuation allowance, including uncertain tax positions; (iv) the amortization patterns of content assets; (v) incremental borrowing rate and lease term for the Company's lease arrangements and (vi) estimate allowance for expected credit losses on trade accounts receivable.

These estimates and assumptions may affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements. The Company bases these estimates on historical experience, the current economic environment or various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. However, economic uncertainty and any disruption in financial markets increase the possibility that actual results may differ from these estimates.

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

6 Months Ended

Jun. 30, 2024

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Company reports financial and non-financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring and non-recurring basis under the provisions of ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurement” (“ASC 820”) which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.

The fair value framework requires the categorization of assets and liabilities into three levels based upon the assumptions (inputs) used to price the assets or liabilities. Level 1 provides the most reliable measure of fair value, whereas Level 3 generally requires significant management judgment. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1: Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that can be accessed at the measurement date.

Level 2: Observable inputs other than those included in Level 1 (i.e., quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in inactive markets).

Level 3: Unobservable inputs reflecting management’s own assumptions about the inputs used in pricing the asset or liability.

A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value instrument.

As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the fair values of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are categorized as follows:


	Total		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3

	(In thousands)
As of June 30, 2024
Liabilities subject to fair value measurement:
Employment Agreement Award(a)	$	16,707	$	—	$	—	$	16,707

Mezzanine equity subject to fair value measurement:
Redeemable non-controlling interests(b)	$	9,071	$	—	$	—	$	9,071

Assets subject to fair value measurement:
Cash equivalents-money market funds(c)	$	102,807	$	102,807	$	—	$	—

As of December 31, 2023
Liabilities subject to fair value measurement:
Employment Agreement Award(a)	$	22,970	$	—	$	—	$	22,970

Mezzanine equity subject to fair value measurement:
Redeemable non-controlling interests(b)	$	16,520	$	—	$	—	$	16,520

Assets subject to fair value measurement:
Cash equivalents-money market funds(c)	$	193,769	$	193,769	$	—	$	—

(a)Pursuant to an employment agreement, the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) is eligible to receive an award (the “Employment Agreement Award”) amount equal to approximately 4% of any proceeds from distributions or other liquidity events in excess of the return of the Company’s aggregate investment in TV One. The Company reviews the factors underlying this award at the end of each reporting period including the valuation of TV One (based on the estimated enterprise fair value of TV One as determined by the income approach using a discounted cash flow analysis and the market approach using comparable public company multiples). Significant inputs to the discounted cash flow analysis include revenue growth rates, future operating profit, and discount rate. Significant inputs to the market approach include publicly held peer companies and recurring EBITDA multiples. On April 3, 2024, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Alfred C. Liggins, III, President and Chief Executive Officer, consistent with the terms approved by the Company’s Compensation Committee. The terms of the new employment agreements are effective as of January 1, 2022.

(b)The fair value is measured using an exit price methodology. Significant inputs to the exit price analysis include revenue growth rates, future operating profit margins, discount rate and an exit multiple.

(c)The Company measures and reports its cash equivalents that are invested in money market funds and valued based on quoted market prices which approximate cost due to their short-term maturities.

There were no transfers within Level 1, 2, or 3 during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. The following table presents the changes in Level 3 liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023:


	Employment Agreement Award		Redeemable Non-controlling Interests

Change in fair value(a)	(1,818)		(313)

(a)Amount of total income/(losses) for the period included in earnings attributable to the change in unrealized (gains) losses relating to liabilities still held at the reporting date.

Changes in the fair value of the Employment Agreement Award were recorded in the condensed consolidated statements of operations as corporate selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. The long-term portion is recorded in other long-term liabilities and the current portion is recorded in other current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

(a)Any significant increases or decreases in unobservable inputs could result in significantly higher or lower fair value measurements. Changes in fair value measurements, if significant, may affect the Company’s performance of cash flows.

Certain assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis using Level 3 inputs as defined in ASC 820. These assets are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to fair value adjustments only in certain circumstances. Included in this category are goodwill, radio broadcasting licenses and other intangible assets, net, which are written down to fair value when they are determined to be impaired, as well as content assets that are periodically written down to net realizable value. See Note 13 – Goodwill and Radio Broadcasting Licenses of the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion.

Financial Instruments

As of June 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, the Company’s financial instruments consisted of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, trade accounts receivable, asset-backed credit facility, and long-term debt. The carrying amounts approximated fair value for each of these financial instruments as of June 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, except for the Company’s long-term debt. On January 25, 2021, the Company borrowed $825.0 million in aggregate principal amount of senior secured notes due February 2028 and bearing interest at a rate of 7.375% (the “2028 Notes”). The 2028 Notes had a carrying value of approximately $614.5 million and fair value of approximately $477.8 million as of June 30, 2024, and had a carrying value of approximately $725.0 million and fair value of approximately $616.3 million as of December 31, 2023. The fair values of the 2028 Notes, classified as a Level 2 instrument, were determined based on the trading values of this instrument in an inactive market as of the reporting date. There were no borrowings outstanding on the Company’s asset-backed credit facility as of June 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023.

ORGANIZATION	Jun. 30, 2024
Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
ORGANIZATION	ORGANIZATION Urban One, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and its subsidiaries (collectively, “Urban One,” the “Company,” “we,” “our” and/or “us”) is an urban-oriented, multi-media company that primarily targets African-American and urban consumers. Our core business is our radio broadcasting franchise which is the largest radio broadcasting operation that primarily targets African-American and urban listeners. As of June 30, 2024, we owned and/or operated 72 independently formatted, revenue producing broadcast stations (including 57 FM or AM stations, 13 HD stations, and the 2 low power television stations we operate), located in 13 of the most populous African-American markets in the United States. While a core source of our revenue has historically been and remains the sale of local and national advertising for broadcast on our radio stations, our strategy is to operate the premier multi-media entertainment and information content platform targeting African-American and urban consumers. Thus, we have diversified our revenue streams by making acquisitions and investments in other complementary media properties. Our diverse media and entertainment interests include TV One, LLC (“TV One”), which operates two cable television networks targeting African-American and urban viewers, TV One and CLEO TV; our 90.0% ownership interest in Reach Media, Inc. (“Reach Media”) which operates the Rickey Smiley Morning Show and our other syndicated programming assets, including the Get Up! Mornings with Erica Campbell Show and the DL Hughley Show; and Interactive One, LLC (“Interactive One”), our wholly owned digital platform serving the African-American community through social content, news, information, and entertainment websites, including its iONE Digital, Cassius and Bossip, HipHopWired and MadameNoire digital platforms and brands. Through our national multi-media operations, we provide advertisers with a unique and powerful delivery mechanism to communicate with African-American and urban audiences. Our core radio broadcasting franchise operates under the brand “Radio One.” We also operate other brands, such as TV One, CLEO TV, Reach Media, iONE Digital, and One Solution, while developing additional branding reflective of our diverse media operations and our targeting of African-American and urban audiences. As part of our condensed consolidated financial statements, consistent with our financial reporting structure and how the Company currently manages its businesses, we have provided selected financial information on the Company’s four reportable segments: (i) radio broadcasting; (ii) Reach Media; (iii) digital; and (iv) cable television. (See Note 17 – Segment Information of our condensed consolidated financial statements.)

LONG-TERM DEBT

6 Months Ended

Jun. 30, 2024

Debt Disclosure [Abstract]

LONG-TERM DEBT

Long-term debt consists of the following:


	June 30, 2024		December 31, 2023

	(In thousands)
2028 Notes	$	614,475	$	725,000
Total debt	614,475		725,000
Less: original issue discount and issuance costs	(6,610)		(8,754)
Long-term debt, net	$	607,865	$	716,246

2028 Notes

In January 2021, the Company issued the 2028 Notes at an issue price of 100% in a private offering exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The 2028 Notes are general senior secured obligations of the Company and are guaranteed on a senior secured basis by certain of the Company’s direct and indirect restricted subsidiaries. The 2028 Notes mature on February 1, 2028 and interest on the 2028 Notes accrues and is payable semi-annually in arrears on February 1 and August 1 of each year at a rate of 7.375% per annum.

The 2028 Notes and the guarantees are secured, subject to permitted liens and except for certain excluded assets (i) on a first priority basis by substantially all of the Company’s and the Guarantors’ current and future property and assets (other than accounts receivable, cash, deposit accounts, other bank accounts, securities accounts, inventory and related assets that secure the Company’s asset-backed revolving credit facility on a first priority basis (the “ABL Priority Collateral”)), including the capital stock of each guarantor (collectively, the “Notes Priority Collateral”) and (ii) on a second priority basis by the ABL Priority Collateral. The 2028 Notes require the Company to file quarterly and annual reports with the SEC within a specified time period after the Company’s fiscal quarter end and year end. However, failure to comply does not constitute an event of default unless the Company does not comply within 120 days after receiving written notice from the Trustee. The Company has not received any such notice.

The amount of deferred financing costs included in interest expense for all instruments, for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, was approximately $0.5 million and $1.0 million, respectively. The Company’s effective interest rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 was 7.80% and 7.74%, respectively.

Under open authorizations, repurchases of the outstanding debt may be made from time to time in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. Repurchased debt is retired when repurchased. The timing and extent of any repurchases will depend upon prevailing market conditions, the trading price of the Company’s outstanding debt and other factors, and subject to restrictions under applicable law.

On December 6, 2022, the Board of Directors authorized and approved a note repurchase program for up to $25.0 million of the currently outstanding 2028 Notes. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company repurchased $25.0 million of its 2028 Notes at an average price of approximately 89.1% of par. The Company recorded a net gain on retirement of debt of approximately $2.4 million during the three months ended March 31, 2023.

During the fourth quarter of 2023, the Board of Directors authorized and approved a note repurchase program for up to $75.0 million of the currently outstanding 2028 Notes. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company repurchased $75.0 million of its 2028 Notes at an average price of approximately 88.3% of par. The Company recorded a net gain on retirement of debt of approximately $7.9 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024.

During the second quarter of 2024, the Board of Directors authorized and approved a note repurchase program for up to $35.5 million of the currently outstanding 2028 Notes. During the three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company repurchased approximately $35.5 million of its 2028 Notes at an average price of approximately 78.0% of par, resulting in a net gain on retirement of debt of approximately $7.4 million.

During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company repurchased approximately $110.5 million of its 2028 Notes at an average price of approximately 85.0% of par, resulting in a net gain on retirement of debt of approximately $15.3 million.

The Company conducts a portion of its business through its subsidiaries. Certain of the Company’s subsidiaries have fully and unconditionally guaranteed the Company’s 2028 Notes.

Asset-Backed Credit Facilities

On February 19, 2021, the Company closed on its asset backed credit facility (the “Current ABL Facility”). The Current ABL Facility is governed by a credit agreement by and among the Company, the other borrowers party thereto, the lenders party thereto from time to time and Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent. The Current ABL Facility provides for up to $50.0 million revolving loan borrowings in order to provide for the working capital needs and general corporate requirements of the Company. The Current ABL Facility also provides for a letter of credit facility up to $5.0 million as a part of the overall $50.0 million in capacity. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, there was no balance outstanding on the Current ABL Facility.

At the Company’s election, the interest rate on borrowings under the Current ABL Facility is based on either (i) the then applicable margin relative to Base Rate Loans (as defined in the Current ABL Facility) or (ii) until execution of the Waiver and Amendment (as defined below) took effect, the then applicable margin relative to LIBOR Loans (as defined in the Current ABL Facility) corresponding to the average availability of the Company for the most recently completed fiscal quarter.

Advances under the Current ABL Facility are limited to (a) eighty-five percent (85%) of the amount of Eligible Accounts (as defined in the Current ABL Facility), less the amount, if any, of the Dilution Reserve (as defined in the Current ABL Facility), minus (b) the sum of (i) the Bank Product Reserve (as defined in the Current ABL Facility), plus (ii) the AP and Deferred Revenue Reserve (as defined in the Current ABL Facility), plus (iii) without duplication, the aggregate amount of all other reserves, if any, established by Administrative Agent.

All obligations under the Current ABL Facility are secured by a first priority lien on all (i) deposit accounts (related to accounts receivable), (ii) accounts receivable, and (iii) all other property which constitutes ABL Priority Collateral (as defined in the Current ABL Facility). The obligations are also guaranteed by all material restricted subsidiaries of the Company. The Current ABL Facility includes a covenant requiring the Company’s fixed charge coverage ratio, as defined in the agreement, to not be less than 1.00 to 1.00. The Company is in compliance as of June 30, 2024.

On April 30, 2023, the Company entered into a waiver and amendment (the “Waiver and Amendment”) to the Current ABL Facility. The Waiver and Amendment waived certain events of default under the Current ABL Facility related to the Company’s failure to timely deliver certain annual financial deliverables for the Fiscal Year ended December 31, 2022 as required under the Current ABL Facility (the “Specified Defaults”).

Additionally, under the Waiver and Amendment, the Current ABL Facility was amended to provide that from and after the date thereof, any request for a new LIBOR Loan (as defined in the Current ABL Facility), for a continuation of an existing LIBOR Loan (as defined in the Current ABL Facility) or for a conversion of a Loan to a LIBOR Loan (as defined in the Current ABL Facility) shall be deemed to be a request for a loan bearing interest at Term SOFR (as defined in the Amended Current ABL Facility) (the “SOFR Interest Rate Change”). As the Company was undrawn under the Current ABL Facility as of the date of the Waiver and Amendment, the SOFR Interest Rate Change would only bear upon future borrowings by the Company such that they bear an interest rate relating to the secured overnight financing rate. These provisions of the Waiver and Amendment are intended to transition loans under the Current ABL Facility to the new secured overnight financing rate as the benchmark rate.

Between June 5, 2023 and May 30, 2024, the Company entered into six more waivers and amendments related to the Company’s failure to timely deliver certain financial deliverables as required under the Current ABL Facility Most recently, on May 30, 2024, the Company entered into a seventh waiver and amendment (the “Seventh Waiver and Amendment” to the Current ABL Facility. The Seventh Waiver and Amendment waived certain events of default under the Current ABL Facility related to the Company’s failure to timely deliver both the Annual Financial Deliverables for the year ended December 31, 2023 (the “2023 Form 10-K”) and Quarterly Financial Deliverables for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 as required under the Current ABL Facility (the “2024 Q1 Form 10-Q” and, together with the “2023 Form 10-K”, the “Delayed Reports”). The Seventh Waiver and Amendment sets a due date of June 17, 2024 for the Delayed Reports. The Delayed Reports were filed on June 7, 2024, bringing the Company back into compliance with the requirements under the Current ABL Facility.

The Current ABL Facility matures on the earlier to occur of: (a) the date that is five years from the effective date of the Current ABL Facility, and (b) 91 days prior to the maturity of the Company’s 2028 Notes.

The Current ABL Facility is subject to the terms of the Revolver Intercreditor Agreement (as defined in the Current ABL Facility) by and among the Administrative Agent and Wilmington Trust, National Association.

Letter of Credit Facility

As of March 31, 2024, the Company closed its letter of credit reimbursement and security agreement with capacity of up to $1.2 million and received a $1.2 million deposit held with the counterparty in connection with the agreement. In addition, the Current ABL Facility provides for letter of credit capacity of up to $5.0 million subject to certain limitations on availability.

Future Minimum Principal Payments

Future scheduled minimum principal payments of debt as of June 30, 2024, are as follows:

Segment Reporting [Abstract]

SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company has four reportable segments: (i) radio broadcasting; (ii) Reach Media; (iii) digital; and (iv) cable television. These segments operate in the United States and are consistently aligned with the Company’s management of its businesses and its financial reporting structure.

The radio broadcasting segment consists of all broadcast results of operations. The Reach Media segment consists of the results of operations for the related activities and operations of the Company’s syndicated shows. The digital segment includes the results of the Company’s online business, including the operations of Interactive One, as well as the digital components of the Company’s other reportable segments. The cable television segment includes the results of operations of TV One and CLEO TV. Business activities unrelated to these four segments are included in an “all other” category which the Company refers to as “All other - corporate/eliminations.”

Operating income or loss represents total revenues less operating expenses, depreciation and amortization, and impairment of goodwill, intangible assets, and long-lived assets. Intercompany revenue earned and expenses charged between segments are eliminated in consolidation.

The accounting policies described in the summary of significant accounting policies in Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements are applied consistently across the segments.

Detailed segment data for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, is presented in the following tables:

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES	6 Months Ended
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES	Jun. 30, 2024
Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES	COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Radio Broadcasting Licenses Each of the Company’s radio stations operates pursuant to one or more licenses issued by the FCC that have a maximum term of eight years prior to renewal. The Company’s radio broadcasting licenses expire at various times beginning in October 2027 through August 1, 2030. Although the Company may apply to renew its radio broadcasting licenses, third parties may challenge the Company’s renewal applications. The Company is not aware of any facts or circumstances that would prevent the Company from having its current licenses renewed. A station may continue to operate beyond the expiration date of its license if a timely filed license renewal application is filed and is pending, as is the case with respect to each of the Company’s stations with licenses that have expired. Royalty Agreements Musical works rights holders, generally songwriters and music publishers, have been traditionally represented by performing rights organizations, such as the American Society of Composers Authors and Publishers (“ASCAP”), Broadcast Music, Inc (“BMI”) and SESAC, Inc. (“SESAC”). The market for rights relating to musical works is changing rapidly. Songwriters and music publishers have withdrawn from the traditional performing rights organizations (“PRO”), particularly ASCAP and BMI, and new entities, such as Global Music Rights Inc. (“GMR”), have been formed to represent rights holders. These organizations negotiate fees with copyright users, collect royalties and distribute them to the rights holders. These licenses periodically come up for renewal, and as a result certain of the Company’s PRO licenses are currently the subject of renewal negotiations. The outcome of these renewal negotiations could impact, and potentially increase, the Company’s music license fees. In addition, there is no guarantee that additional PROs will not emerge, which could impact, and in some circumstances increase, the Company’s royalty rates and negotiation costs. The Radio Music Licensing Committee (“RMLC”), of which the Company is a represented participant has negotiated and entered into, on behalf of participating members, an Interim License Agreement with ASCAP effective January 1, 2022 and to remain in effect until the date on which the parties reach agreement as to, or there is court determination of, new interim or final fees, terms, and conditions of a new license for the five year period commencing on January 1, 2022 and concluding on December 31, 2026. On February 7, 2022, the RMLC and GMR reached a settlement and achieved certain conditions which effectuate a four-year license to which the Company is a party for the period April 1, 2022 to March 31, 2026. The license includes an optional three-year extended term that the Company may effectuate prior to the end of the initial term. The RMLC is negotiating with BMI and SESAC. Reach Media Redeemable Non-controlling Interests Beginning on January 1, 2018, the non-controlling interest shareholders of Reach Media have had an annual right to require Reach Media to purchase all or a portion of their shares at the then current fair market value for such shares (the “Put Right”). This annual right is exercisable for a 30-day period beginning January 1 of each year. The purchase price for such shares may be paid in cash and/or registered Class D common stock of Urban One, at the discretion of Urban One. The non-controlling interest shareholders of Reach Media exercised 50% of their Put Right on January 26, 2024. On March 8, 2024, Reach Media closed on the Put Interest increasing the Company’s interest in Reach Media to 90% and decreasing the interest of the non-controlling interest shareholders from 20% to 10%. Reach Media paid the non-controlling interest shareholders approximately $7.6 million for the 10% interest. Management, at this time, cannot reasonably determine the period when and if the remainder of the Put Right will be exercised by the non-controlling interest shareholders. Other Contingencies The Company has been named as a defendant in several legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. It is management’s opinion, after consultation with its legal counsel, that the outcome of these claims will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets Disclosure [Abstract]

GOODWILL AND RADIO BROADCASTING LICENSES

Goodwill

As of June 30, 2024, the Company performed a qualitative impairment assessment for goodwill at four reporting units because of a decline in operating cash flows. Based on the impairment assessment performed, no goodwill impairment losses were recognized for the period ended June 30, 2024.

Radio Broadcasting Licenses

As of June 30, 2024, an increase in the discount rate, and a decline in the projected gross market revenues and operating profits triggered a qualitative impairment assessment for broadcasting licenses across all radio markets. The Company performed a quantitative impairment assessment for the broadcasting licenses for all radio markets to determine whether they were impaired.

To determine the fair value of the broadcasting licenses, the Company utilized the income approach which values a license by calculating the value of a hypothetical startup company that initially has no assets except the asset to be valued (the broadcasting license). The Company performed a discounted cash flow analysis for broadcasting licenses across all 13 radio markets. The key assumptions used in the discounted cash flow analysis for broadcasting licenses include market revenue and projected revenue growth by market, mature market share, operating profit margin, terminal growth rate, and discount rate.

Based on this analysis, the Company recognized an impairment loss of approximately $80.8 million associated with 9 radio markets within the radio broadcasting segment, included in impairment of goodwill, intangible assets, and long-lived assets, on the condensed consolidated statement of operations during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024.

The following table presents the changes in the Company’s radio broadcasting licenses carrying value during the six months ended June 30, 2024.



	(In thousands)
Balance as of January 1, 2024	$	375,296
Impairment charges	(80,758)
Balance as of June 30, 2024	$	294,538

Below are the key assumptions used in the income approach model for estimating the fair value of the broadcasting licenses for the 13 radio markets in the most recent interim impairment assessment performed as of June 30, 2024.


Radio Broadcasting Licenses			June 30, 2024
Discount Rate			10.0%
Revenue Growth Rate Range			(3.2)% - 0.2%
Terminal Growth Rate			(0.5)%
Mature Market Share Range			1.0% - 28.5%
Operating Profit Margin Range			2.5% - 30.0%

INCOME TAXES	Jun. 30, 2024
Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
INCOME TAXES	INCOME TAXES The Company uses the estimated annual effective tax rate method under ASC 740-270, “Interim Reporting” to calculate the provision for income taxes. The Company recorded a benefit from income taxes of approximately $16.0 million on pre-tax loss from consolidated operations of approximately $53.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. This results in an effective tax rate of approximately 30.0%, which is also the estimated annual effective tax rate as there were no material net discrete taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2024. In accordance with ASC 740, “Accounting for Income Taxes,” the Company continues to evaluate the realizability of its net deferred tax assets (“DTAs”) by assessing the future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company’s financial statements or tax returns, tax planning strategies, and future profitability. As of June 30, 2024, the Company believes it is more likely than not that these DTAs will be realized. The Company is subject to continuous examination of the Company’s income tax returns by the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") and other domestic tax authorities. The Company believes that an adequate provision has been made for any adjustments that may result from tax examinations.

Related Party Transactions [Abstract]
RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS	RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS Reach Media operates the Tom Joyner Foundation’s Fantastic Voyage® (the “Fantastic Voyage®”), an annual fund-raising event, on behalf of the Tom Joyner Foundation, Inc. (the “Foundation”), a 501(c)(3) entity. The agreement under which the Fantastic Voyage® operates provides that Reach Media provide all necessary operations of the cruise, and that Reach Media will be reimbursed its expenditures and receive a fee based on performance. The Foundation’s remittances to Reach Media under the agreements are limited to its Fantastic Voyage® related cash collections. Reach Media bears the risk should the Fantastic Voyage® sustain a loss and bears all credit risk associated with the related passenger cruise package sales. The agreement between Reach Media and the Foundation automatically renews annually. The agreement may be terminated: by mutual agreement; by one of the parties should its financial requirements not be met; or if a party is in breach by the non-breaching party, which shall have the right, but not the obligation, to terminate unilaterally. The Foundation owed Reach Media approximately $0.5 million and $1.0 million as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The Fantastic Voyage was operated in May 2024 and May 2023. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the revenues, expenses, and operating income were approximately $9.6 million, $8.4 million, and $1.2 million, respectively, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023 for which they were $10.0 million, $8.2 million, and $1.75 million, respectively. Reach Media provides office facilities (including office space, telecommunications facilities, and office equipment) to the Foundation. Such services are provided to the Foundation on a pass-through basis at cost. Additionally, from time to time, the Foundation reimburses Reach Media for expenditures paid on its behalf at Reach Media-related events. Under these arrangements, the Foundation owed immaterial amounts to Reach Media as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. Alfred C. Liggins, President and Chief Executive Officer of Urban One, Inc., was a compensated member of the Board of Directors of Broadcast Music, Inc. (“BMI”), a performance rights organization to which the Company pays license fees in the ordinary course of business. As of December 31, 2023, the Company owed BMI approximately $0.3 million. On February 8, 2024, the sale of BMI to a shareholder group led by New Mountain Capital, LLC, was completed. Based on the Company's equity interest in BMI, the sale resulted in cash proceeds of $0.8 million. Due to the sale of BMI, Alfred Liggins is no longer a member of the BMI Board of Directors. The Company incurred expenses of approximately $1.0 million during the three months ended June 30, 2023. The Company incurred expenses of approximately $0.8 million and $1.8 million during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

Earnings Per Share

EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) attributable to common stockholders is presented in conformity with the two-class method required for participating securities: Class A, Class B, Class C and Class D common stock. The rights of the holders of Class A, Class B, Class C and Class D common stock are identical, except with respect to voting, conversion, and transfer rights.

The undistributed earnings or losses are allocated based on the contractual participation rights of the Class A, Class B, Class C and Class D common shares as if the earnings or losses for the year have been distributed. As the liquidation and dividend rights are identical, the undistributed earnings or losses are allocated on a proportionate basis, and as such, diluted and basic earnings per share is the same for each class of common stock under the two-class method.

The following table sets forth the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share from continuing operations:

Weighted-average outstanding shares	48,483,639		50,616,435		48,434,513		50,373,714

EPS attributable to Class A, Class B, Class C and Class D stockholders per share – basic	$	(0.94)	$	1.48	$	(0.78)	$	1.42
EPS attributable to Class A, Class B, Class C and Class D stockholders per share – diluted	$	(0.94)	$	1.39	$	(0.78)	$	1.34

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, there were approximately 6.3 million and 5.1 million potentially dilutive securities, respectively, that were not included in the computation of diluted EPS, because to do so would have been antidilutive for the periods presented. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 there were no material potentially antidilutive securities excluded from the computation of diluted EPS.

Unearned event income represents payments by customers for upcoming events. Contract liabilities are included in other current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

For customer advances and unearned income as of January 1, 2024, $2.5 million was recognized as revenue during the six months ended June 30, 2024.

For unearned event income as of January 1, 2024, $4.9 million was recognized as revenue during the six months ended June 30, 2024.

Agency and outside sales representative commissions were approximately $9.4 million and $9.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and approximately $18.7 million and $18.8 million for of the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

The Company does not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for (i) contracts with an original expected length of one year or less, or (ii) contracts for which variable consideration is a sales-based or usage-based royalty promised in exchange for a license of intellectual property.

- Definition

The entire disclosure of revenue from contract with customer to transfer good or service and to transfer nonfinancial asset. Includes, but is not limited to, disaggregation of revenue, credit loss recognized from contract with customer, judgment and change in judgment related to contract with customer, and asset recognized from cost incurred to obtain or fulfill contract with customer.

Asset Acquisition [Abstract]
ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSITIONS	ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSITIONS On April 11, 2023, the Company entered into a definitive asset purchase agreement with Cox Media Group (“the CMG Acquisition”) to purchase its Houston radio cluster. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company agreed to acquire 93Q Country KKBQ-FM, classic rock station The Eagle 106.9 & 107.5 KHPT-FM and KGLK-FM, and Country Legends 97.1 KTHT-FM. The transaction price was $27.5 million. The acquisition was completed on August 1, 2023. As part of the Federal Communication Commission (“FCC”) approval of and the closing conditions of the CMG Acquisition, the Company was required to divest KTHT-FM. On June 7, 2023, the Company entered into a definitive asset purchase agreement with Educational Media Foundation (“EMF”) to sell KTHT-FM, and all its assets, for $3.1 million (“the KTHT Divestiture”). Immediately prior to the closing of the CMG Acquisition on August 1, 2023, the KTHT-FM assets were transferred directly into an irrevocable trust until sale to EMF was finalized. On November 1, 2023, after the approval by the FCC, the KTHT Divestiture was completed. The Company accounted for the CMG Acquisition as an acquisition of assets and, as such, allocated the purchase price, including transaction costs directly related to the asset acquisition, to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their relative fair values with no goodwill recognized. The Company’s allocation of the purchase price to the assets acquired in the CMG Acquisition, exclusive of those amounts allocated to KTHT-FM, consisted of $23.4 million to radio broadcasting licenses, $0.3 million to towers and antennas, $0.5 million to transmitters, $0.1 million to studios, and $0.1 million to fixed assets. In anticipation of the FCC divestiture requirement and the CMG Acquisition, the Company agreed to sell its KROI-FM radio broadcasting license along with the associated station assets from the radio broadcasting segment to an unrelated third party for approximately $7.5 million. At the time of closing of the CMG Acquisition, the identified assets and liabilities of KROI-FM have a combined carrying value of approximately $9.9 million and $2.4 million, respectively. The major category of the assets included radio broadcasting licenses in the amount of approximately $7.3 million (net of impairment of approximately $16.8 million included in impairment of goodwill, intangible assets, and long-lived assets, on the condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023). On August 1, 2023, immediately prior to the closing of the CMG Acquisition, the identified assets and liabilities were transferred to the irrevocable trust and removed from the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet as part of customary closing terms. The identified assets and liabilities will remain in the trust until the transaction is complete, which is anticipated to occur on or about November 27, 2024. As the identified assets and liabilities of KROI-FM were held in an irrevocable trust and the divestiture had not been completed as of June 30, 2024, the Company has recorded a right to receive payment from KROI-FM’s acquirer as a receivable of $2.1 million and $5.6 million within other current assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Policies)	6 Months Ended
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Policies)	Jun. 30, 2024
Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and under the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") for interim financial information. In management’s opinion, the interim financial data presented herein include all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related financial information should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K (“Form 10-K”). There have been no significant changes to the Company’s accounting policies as described in Note 3 - Summary of significant accounting policies, in the notes to the consolidated financial statements in Item 8 of Part II of Form 10-K. All amounts presented in these condensed consolidated financial statements are expressed in thousands of U.S. dollars, except share and per share amounts and unless otherwise noted. The Company's results are subject to seasonal fluctuations and typically, revenues are lowest in the first calendar quarter of the year. Due to this seasonality, the results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year. The Company experiences further seasonality in odd versus even years as there tends to be more political activity in even years which can have a positive impact on advertising revenues.
Principles of Consolidation	Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts and operations of Urban One and subsidiaries in which Urban One has a controlling financial interest, which is generally determined when the Company holds a majority voting interest. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Non-controlling interests have been recognized where a controlling interest exists, but the Company owns less than 100% of the controlled entity. The Company is required to include the financial statements of variable interest entities (“VIE”) in its consolidated financial statements. Under the VIE model, the Company consolidates an investment if it has control to direct the activities of the entity and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE.
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions. The most significant estimates and assumptions are used in determining: (i) estimates of future cash flows used to evaluate and recognize impairments; (ii) estimates of fair value of Employment Agreement Award (as defined below) and redeemable non-controlling interest in Reach Media; (iii) deferred taxes and related valuation allowance, including uncertain tax positions; (iv) the amortization patterns of content assets; (v) incremental borrowing rate and lease term for the Company's lease arrangements and (vi) estimate allowance for expected credit losses on trade accounts receivable. These estimates and assumptions may affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements. The Company bases these estimates on historical experience, the current economic environment or various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. However, economic uncertainty and any disruption in financial markets increase the possibility that actual results may differ from these estimates.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted	Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standard Update ("ASU") No. 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures”, which requires a public entity to disclose significant segment expenses and other segment items on an annual and interim basis and provide in interim periods all disclosures about a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets that are currently required annually. Additionally, it requires a public entity to disclose the title and position of the Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM"). The ASU does not change how a public entity identifies its operating segments, aggregates them, or applies the quantitative thresholds to determine its reportable segments. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. A public entity should apply the amendments in this ASU retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company expects this ASU to only impact its disclosures with no impacts to its results of operations, cash flows and financial condition. In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures”, which focuses on the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. ASU No. 2023-09 requires a public business entity ("PBE") to disclose, on an annual basis, a tabular rate reconciliation using both percentages and currency amounts, broken out into specified categories with certain reconciling items further broken out by nature and jurisdiction to the extent those items exceed a specified threshold. In addition, all entities are required to disclose income taxes paid, net of refunds received disaggregated by federal, state/local, and foreign and by jurisdiction if the amount is at least 5% of total income tax payments, net of refunds received. For PBEs, the new standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. An entity may apply the amendments in this ASU prospectively by providing the revised disclosures for the period ending December 31, 2025 and continuing to provide the pre-ASU disclosures for the prior periods or may apply the amendments retrospectively by providing the revised disclosures for all period presented.

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS	6 Months Ended
NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS	Jun. 30, 2024
Accounting Policies [Abstract]
NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS	NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standard Update ("ASU") No. 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures”, which requires a public entity to disclose significant segment expenses and other segment items on an annual and interim basis and provide in interim periods all disclosures about a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets that are currently required annually. Additionally, it requires a public entity to disclose the title and position of the Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM"). The ASU does not change how a public entity identifies its operating segments, aggregates them, or applies the quantitative thresholds to determine its reportable segments. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. A public entity should apply the amendments in this ASU retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company expects this ASU to only impact its disclosures with no impacts to its results of operations, cash flows and financial condition. In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures”, which focuses on the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. ASU No. 2023-09 requires a public business entity ("PBE") to disclose, on an annual basis, a tabular rate reconciliation using both percentages and currency amounts, broken out into specified categories with certain reconciling items further broken out by nature and jurisdiction to the extent those items exceed a specified threshold. In addition, all entities are required to disclose income taxes paid, net of refunds received disaggregated by federal, state/local, and foreign and by jurisdiction if the amount is at least 5% of total income tax payments, net of refunds received. For PBEs, the new standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. An entity may apply the amendments in this ASU prospectively by providing the revised disclosures for the period ending December 31, 2025 and continuing to provide the pre-ASU disclosures for the prior periods or may apply the amendments retrospectively by providing the revised disclosures for all period presented. The Company expects this ASU to only impact its disclosures with no impacts to its results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.

- Definition

The entire disclosure for change in accounting principle. Includes, but is not limited to, nature, reason, and method of adopting amendment to accounting standards or other change in accounting principle.
