have not been amended and should no longer be relied upon.
EXPLANATORY
NOTE
In this
Form 10-K,
we are restating, for reasons described below, the consolidated
balance sheet as of December 31, 2005 and the related
consolidated statements of operations, stockholders equity
and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2005 and
2004. This
Form 10-K
reflects the restatement of Selected Consolidated Financial Data
for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004, 2003 and 2002
in Item 6, and Managements Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
in Item 7 for the years ended December 31, 2005 and
2004. In addition, we are restating the unaudited quarterly
financial information and financial statements for the interim
periods of 2005. The unaudited quarterly financial information
and financial statements for the interim periods of 2006 are not
restated, and the impact from the restatement was recorded in
the three months ended December 31, 2006, as it did not
have a material impact on 2006 annual or interim operating
results.
The restatements do not result in a change to our previously
reported revenue, cash flow from operations or total cash and
cash equivalents shown in our historical consolidated financial
statements. The stock-based compensation charges, including the
tax effect and other adjustments, decreased net income by
approximately $9.0 million for the years ended
December 31, 1999 through December 31, 2005. For the
year ended December 31, 2006, the stock-based compensation
charges, including the tax effect and other adjustments related
to the restatement increased the net loss by $246,000.
We have not amended any of our previously filed annual or
quarterly reports on
Form 10-K
or 10-K/A
for the periods affected by the restatement. For this reason,
the consolidated financial statements and related financial
information contained in such previously filed reports for the
period from January 1, 1999 through December 31, 2005
should no longer be relied upon.
Audit
committee review
Prompted by numerous headlines regarding the Securities and
Exchange Commissions (SEC) investigation of
options practices by public companies, we conducted a voluntary,
internal review of our historical stock option grant practices
and related accounting. The review covered options granted
during the period from May 1999 (the date of our initial public
offering) through December 2006. Based on our preliminary
findings, the Companys audit committee retained the law
firm of Covington & Burling LLP
(Covington) to assist them in conducting a full
investigation of our past option grant practices. Covington
retained three information technology vendors to facilitate the
search and retrieval of electronic data from our computer and
backup storage systems, interviewed 27 current and former
employees, board members, executive officers and outside counsel
and reviewed over a million pages of documents. The documents
reviewed included compensation committee and board meeting
minutes, written consents, electronic data, employment and
payroll records, employment agreements and offer letters, grant
agreements and notices, SEC filings, recipient lists, stock
option database information, and other relevant documents. Based
on Covingtons investigation, the audit committee found no
fraud or intentional wrongdoing. As a result of the internal
review and investigation by Covington, the audit committee found
that the original measurement dates of certain stock option
grants, for financial accounting purposes, did not meet the
requirements of Accounting Principles Board (APB)
Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to
Employees. Consequently, for financial accounting
purposes, we made the decision to revise the measurement dates
for nine of the large grants awarded, and six individual grants,
consistent with the standards of APB Opinion No. 25. With
the exception of one grant, the closing price of our stock at
the original stated grant date was lower than the closing price
on the revised measurement date, which resulted in additional
stock-based compensation expense in each of the years from 1999
through 2006. The additional stock-based compensation expense in
some years was not material; the adjustment to 2006 was not
material and was recorded in the fourth quarter of 2006.

Stock
options grant summary
From May 1999 through December 31, 2006, we awarded stock
options covering approximately 9.5 million shares of common
stock. As shown in the table below, there were six annual
company-wide grants to eligible employees as well as grants to
executive officers, non-employee board members and individual
employees. There was no annual grant to employees in 2004 and no
annual grant to employees, executive officers or non-employee
board members in 2006. Other than non-employee board members and
one contractor, we did not award stock options to non-employees.

Adjustments
to measurement dates
The requirement to revise the measurement dates of certain stock
option grants, for financial accounting purposes, to meet the
measurement date criteria of APB Opinion No. 25, is
attributed to a number of different circumstances, described in
the following paragraphs. Although measurement dates were
adjusted in nine of the 11 large grants, 93% of the
additional pre-tax stock-based compensation expense recorded is
attributable to the April 2001 and the October 2000 grants. All
remaining non-forfeited options awarded as part of the April
2001 grant were cancelled in May 2007. Of the nine large grants
where measurement dates were revised, five involved grants to
executive officers and/or non-employee directors, and the
resulting additional pre-tax stock-based compensation expense
was approximately $7.8 million.
No contemporaneous documentation of
approval. In the December 2002 and December
2003 company-wide grants, one of which also included
executive officers, there was no contemporaneous documentation
to confirm that compensation committee or board approval had
occurred on the indicated grant date. Grant approval in each
case was documented by unanimous written consent
(UWC), using the as of date in the
signed consent as the approval date. The measurement dates were
adjusted to conform to the date on which the last consent was
received, as evidenced by the header on the return telecopy,
since the required granting actions, including approval, were
not complete until the signed consents were returned to us. In
the August 2003, June 2004 and May 2005 grants to non-employee
board members, there was no contemporaneous documentation to
confirm that approval had occurred on the original grant date.
The August 2003 and June 2004 measurement dates were revised to
the date that the Form 4 was filed with the SEC, which were
two days after the originally assigned measurement dates for
both grants. The May 2005 measurement date was revised to the
date approval occurred, which was several weeks later.
ii
Selection of grant date prior to approval. In
the December 2001 company-wide grant, the grant date
selected was prior to the date on which the compensation
committee approved the grant and the schedule of option
recipients. The measurement date was adjusted to the date of the
compensation committee meeting during which the related final
granting action of approval occurred. In the April 2001 grant to
executive officers and non-employee board members, the grant was
ratified at a meeting of the board of directors, at which the
board specified a designated grant date and corresponding
exercise price that preceded the date of the board meeting by
several weeks. The measurement date was adjusted to the date
that the board of directors ratified the grant, as reflected in
the board minutes. That grant accounted for 84% of the
additional pre-tax stock-based compensation expense recorded.
None of these options was exercised and no individual received a
financial benefit from this grant. All remaining non-forfeited
options awarded with this grant were cancelled in May 2007.
Lack of finality of recipient list on company-wide
grants. In the October 2000 and May
2005 company-wide grants, the list of grant recipients and
the number of options awarded to each recipient was not
documented or determined with finality until a date subsequent
to the original measurement date. Because there was either no
date on the final recipient lists, or because the recipient list
was not final until after the original grant date, we determined
the revised measurement date for the company-wide grant based on
e-mail,
option database record add date, employee communications, and
other available documentation.
Improper measurement date selection. In each
of the six company-wide grants, certain recipients, including a
contractor in one case, were added or option amounts were
increased or decreased after the revised measurement date. In
each of these cases, the best available evidence was used to
determine the appropriate measurement date for the affected
individual grant. The documentation that was relied on included
the date of the letter communicating the terms of the award to
the employee, the option database record add date and
e-mail.
Incorrect measurement dates for new hire and other
grants. In three instances, the grant date for
options offered to new employees as an incentive to accept the
offer preceded the actual start date for the employee. This
occurred either because the grant date used was the date of the
offer letter rather than the start date or the employees
start date was delayed but the grant date was not changed
accordingly. In addition, there were three individual grants
related to an employment agreement or status which were
incorrectly recorded and adjusted to the appropriate grant
measurement date. As a result, we recognized $11,000 of
additional pre-tax stock-based compensation expense for the
period from January 1, 1999 through December 31, 2005,
relating to six individual grants.

date changes and the additional pre-tax stock-based compensation
expense recognized, on a grant by grant basis:

Accounting
impact
As a result of the investigation, we recorded additional
stock-based compensation expense, after tax, of approximately
$9.2 million, spread over the eight-year period from 1999
through 2006. The impact on our consolidated balance sheet at
December 31, 2006 was an increase in additional paid-in
capital of $9.3 million and an increase in accumulated
deficit of $9.2 million, and at December 31, 2005, the
impact was an increase in additional paid-in capital of
$9.2 million and an increase in accumulated deficit of
$9.0 million. There was no impact on revenue.

Taxes
The tax consequences of the incorrect measurement dates have
been computed and attributed to the years in which the errors
arose. In the aggregate, the financial impact of these tax
adjustments is a liability of $503,000 as of December 31,
2006. As a result of the change in measurement dates described
above, certain stock options granted from May 1999 to December
2005 were issued at prices below fair market value on the
revised measurement date and should have been classified as
Non-Qualified Stock Options (NQs), rather than
Incentive Stock Options (ISOs). Due to the
differences in the tax treatment between ISOs and NQs, we
underreported or under-withheld certain payroll taxes for those
NQ options. The tax liabilities, including interest and
penalties, that we have recorded include the impact of the
reclassification of these options for tax purposes as depicted
in the pre-tax adjustments column of the table included in
Accounting Impact above. There were no options exercised
in 1999 and 2000 for any grants that included revised
measurement dates; hence, there was no resulting pre-tax
adjustment impact. The income tax benefit of the additional
stock-based compensation expense is significantly offset by the
impact of Internal Revenue Code Section 162(m) limitations
for three executive officers awarded options for the April 2001
grant. As a result of Section 162(m), approximately
$2.4 million of the tax benefit lost was because of the
maximum $1.0 million of deductible compensation allowed for
federal income tax purposes.
Judgment
and interpretation
The revised measurement dates were based on managements
assessment of the date on which all of the required actions for
a specific grant were final. However, the lack of conclusive
evidence for certain grants required management to exercise
judgment in determining the revised measurement dates in those
cases. We believe that we have used the best date that met all
the conditions that constitute a measurement date under APB
Opinion No. 25 in this restatement, taking into
consideration all of the available evidence. We also believe our
approach is the most appropriate way to establish the
measurement date, consistent with the SECs guidance that
the appropriate accounting will depend on the particular facts
and circumstances, and that the issuer must use all available
relevant information to form a reasonable conclusion.
Alternative approaches to those used by us could have resulted
in different compensation expense than those recorded by us in
this restatement. Solely for the purpose of assessing the
iv
possible effect on compensation expense that using different
measurement dates could have had, we selected alternative
measurement dates, if any, that had any reasonable support, and
calculated the resulting additional compensation expense. Based
on this assessment, the resulting additional stock-based
compensation could have been as high as approximately
$12.3 million on a pre-tax basis, instead of approximately
$9.3 million included in this restatement. The possible
additional $3.0 million pre-tax compensation expense resulting
from the selection of alternate measurement dates does not
materially impact the affected interim or annual results of
operations for the seven-year period covering the restatement.
Regulatory
matters
We have received a letter of informal inquiry from the SEC
requesting information related to our stock option grant
practices review. The SEC letter states that the informal
inquiry should not be construed as an indication by the SEC or
its staff that any violation of law has occurred, or has an
adverse reflection upon any person, entity or security. We
intend to cooperate fully with the SEC in this matter.
We have received NASDAQ Staff Determination notices that we are
not in compliance with NASDAQ Marketplace Rules for continued
listing because we have not timely filed our Annual Report on
Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2006 or our Quarterly
Report on
Form 10-Q
for the quarter ended March 31, 2007. These delisting
notifications are routine procedure when a NASDAQ listed company
fails to complete a required filing in a timely manner. We have
requested an extension to file and believe that with the filing
of this
Form 10-K
and our subsequent filing of our
Form 10-Q
for the quarter ended March 31, 2007, we will have returned
to compliance with the rules.
Other
restatement item
In addition to the adjustments related to the stock option
review, the restated consolidated financial statements presented
in this
Form 10-K
include an adjustment to correct an accounting error for the
year ended December 31, 2005. This correction relates to a
change in methodology in determining the carry forward of prior
year net operating losses (NOLs) for state tax
purposes. In connection with the change in methodology, an error
was made in calculating the NOLs for certain states for 2005.
The impact on the financial statements for the year ended
December 31, 2005 is an additional deferred tax expense of
approximately $1.1 million. The correction pertained to and
is recorded in the three months ended December 31, 2005,
and did not have a material impact on 2005 interim or annual
results. The combined impact of the state tax NOL correction and
the stock-based compensation adjustments described above reduced
net income by approximately $1.9 million and
$10.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2005 and
the seven-year restatement periods from 1999 through 2005,
respectively.
Financial
Statements

PART I
Overview
Radio One is one of the largest radio broadcasting companies in
the United States and the leading radio broadcasting company
primarily targeting
African-Americans.
We own or operate 71 radio stations in 22 markets; 43 of these
stations (34 FM and 9 AM) are in 14 of the top 20
African-American
markets. We reach approximately 14 million listeners every
week. Our primary source of revenue is the sale of local and
national advertising for broadcast on our radio stations.
Our Chairperson, Catherine L. Hughes, was a co-founder of Radio
One in 1980. She and her son, Alfred C. Liggins, III, our
Chief Executive Officer and President, together have more than
50 years of operating experience in the radio broadcasting
industry. Ms. Hughes, Mr. Liggins and our strong
management team have successfully implemented a strategy of
acquiring and turning around underperforming radio stations.
We believe radio broadcasting primarily targeting
African-Americans
continues to have growth potential and that we have a
competitive advantage in the
African-American
market and the radio industry in general due to our focus on
urban formats and our skill in programming and marketing these
formats. To maintain or improve our competitive position, we
have made and continue to make acquisitions of, and investments
in, radio stations and other complementary media properties. We
continually explore opportunities in other forms of media that
are complementary to our core radio business, which we believe
will allow us to leverage our expertise in the
African-American
market and our significant listener base. Over the past several
years, we launched TV One, LLC (TV One), an
African-American
targeted cable television network, with an affiliate of Comcast
Corporation and other investors; we acquired 51% of Reach Media,
Inc. (Reach Media), which operates the Tom Joyner
Morning Show; we launched a new nationally syndicated
African-American
news/talk radio network; and we acquired certain assets of Giant
Magazine, LLC (Giant Magazine), an urban-themed
lifestyle and entertainment magazine.
Significant
2006 and Recent Events
Minneapolis Station Disposition. In June 2007,
the Company entered into an agreement to sell its radio station
in the Minneapolis metropolitan area to Northern Lights
Broadcasting, LLC for approximately $28.0 million in cash.
Subject to the necessary regulatory approvals, the transaction
is expected to close during the second half of 2007.
Dayton and Louisville Stations Disposition. In
May 2007, the Company entered into an agreement to sell all of
its radio stations in the Dayton metropolitan area and five of
its six radio stations in the Louisville metropolitan area to
Main Line Broadcasting, LLC for approximately $76.0 million
in cash. Subject to the necessary regulatory approvals, the
transaction is expected to close during the second half of 2007.
WPRS-FM
Acquisition. In April 2007, we entered into an
agreement to acquire the assets of
WPRS-FM
(formerly
WXGG-FM), a
radio station located in the Washington DC metropolitan area,
and a local marketing agreement (LMA) with
Bonneville International Corporation to operate the radio
station pending the completion of the acquisition. We began
broadcasting with an inspirational format to complement our
existing presence in the Washington, DC market. We expect to
complete this acquisition during the first half of 2008.
WDBZ-AM
Acquisition. In March 2007, we signed an
agreement to acquire the assets of
WDBZ-AM, a
radio station located in the Cincinnati metropolitan area, for
approximately $2.6 million in seller financing. We have
been operating
WDBZ-AM
pursuant to a LMA since August 2001. We expect to complete this
acquisition during the second half of 2007.
Giant Magazine Acquisition. In December 2006,
we acquired certain assets of Giant Magazine for $270,000. Giant
Magazine is an urban-themed lifestyle and entertainment
magazine. The publication will continue to be based in New York,
while certain back-office functions will be consolidated into
Radio Ones corporate offices.
Sale of
WILD-FM. In
December 2006, we completed the sale of the assets of radio
station
WILD-FM,
located in the Boston metropolitan area, for approximately
$30.0 million in cash.
1
Re-branding of
KKBT-FM. In
December 2006, we re-branded our Los Angeles radio station from
KKBT-FM,
the Beat to
KRBV-FM,
V100, the Best Variety of R&B. We brought in a
new morning drive show host and a new
line-up of
radio talent. We believe that these changes will enhance
V100s performance in the challenging Los Angeles radio
market.
WMOJ-FM
Acquisition. In September 2006, we acquired the
assets of radio station
WIFE-FM,
located in the Cincinnati metropolitan area, for approximately
$18.0 million in cash. In connection with the transaction,
we acquired the intellectual property of Cincinnati radio
station
WMOJ-FM,
also in the Cincinnati market, for approximately
$5.0 million in cash. The newly acquired station was
consolidated with our existing Cincinnati operations, and we
began broadcasting with an urban adult contemporary format under
the call sign of
WMOJ-FM.
WHHL-FM
Acquisition. In May 2006, we acquired the assets
of WHHL-FM
(formerly
WRDA-FM), a
radio station located in the St. Louis metropolitan area,
for approximately $20.0 million in cash. We began operating
the station under a LMA in October 2005. The station has been
reformatted and has been consolidated with our existing
St. Louis operations.
African-American
Talk Radio Network. In January 2006, through a
joint venture with Reach Media, we launched a new nationally
syndicated
African-American
news/talk radio network. The network features leading
African-American
personalities who discuss ideas, issues, analysis and
information targeted to the
African-American
audience. To date, 29 stations have committed to carrying all or
a portion of the networks programming.

The
African-American
Market Opportunity
We believe that urban-formatted radio stations and
urban-oriented media primarily targeting
African-Americans
continues to have growth potential for the following reasons:
Rapid
African-American
Population Growth. From 2000 to 2005, the
African-American
population grew 4.8%, compared to a 4.3% overall population
growth rate, and accounted for 12.1% of total population growth.
The
African-American
population is expected to increase by approximately
2.4 million between 2005 and 2010 to approximately
40.0 million, a 9.9% increase from 2000, compared to an
expected increase during the same period of 6.0% for the
non-African-American population.
African-Americans
are expected to make up 17.9% of total population growth during
this period. (Source: U.S. Census Bureau, 2004,
U.S. Interim Projections by Age, Sex, Race, and
Hispanic Origin.) According to the U.S. Census, the
African-American
population is nearly five years younger than the total
U.S. population. As a result, urban formats, in general,
tend to skew younger than formats targeted to the general market
population. Over the next 30 years the
African-American
population is expected to exceed 50 million people and will
represent more than 14% of the total U.S. population. The
African-American
consumer market is widespread geographically and represents an
attractive customer segment in many states. (Source: The
Multicultural Economy, the University of Georgias Selig
Center for Economic Growth, 2006 Edition).
Higher
African-American
Income Growth. The economic status of
African-Americans
improved at an above-average rate over the past two decades. The
per capita income of
African-Americans
is expected to increase 21.1% between 2005 and 2010 (Source:
U.S. Census Bureau, Historical Income Data).
African-American
buying power was estimated at $762.0 billion in 2005, up
from $723.0 billion in 2004.
African-American
buying power is expected to increase to $981.0 billion by
2010, with cumulative growth of 28.8% between 2005 and 2010. In
addition, the
African-American
consumer tends to have a different consumption profile than
non-African-Americans. An annual report published by Target
Market News provides a list of products and services for which
African-American
households spent more than non-African-Americans. In the most
recent report, there were dozens of products and services listed
in categories such as apparel and accessories, appliances,
consumer electronics, food, personal care products, telephone
service and transportation. (Source: The
U.S. African-American
Market, 6th Edition, Packaged Facts, January 2006).
Growth in Advertising Targeting the
African-American
Market. We continue to believe that large
corporate advertisers are becoming more focused on reaching
minority consumers in the United States. The
African-American
community is considered an emerging growth market within the
mature domestic market. It is estimated that major national
advertisers spent over $2.5 billion on advertising that
targets
African-American
consumers in 2004, up from $1.8 billion in 2000. (Source:
Target Market News). We believe many large corporations are
expanding their commitment to ethnic advertising. The companies
that successfully market to the
African-American
audience have focused on building brand relationships.
Advertisers are making an effort to fully understand the
African-American
consumer, and speak to them with messages that are relevant to
their community, engaging the
African-American
consumer visibly and consistently, involving themselves with the
interests of the
African-American
consumer and increasing
African-American
brand loyalty.
3
Growing Influence of
African-American
Culture. We believe that there continues to be an
ongoing urbanization of many facets of American
society as evidenced by the influence of
African-American
culture in the areas of music, film, fashion, sports and
urban-oriented television shows and networks. We believe that
many companies from a broad range of industries and prominent
fashion designers have embraced this urbanization trend in their
products as well as their advertising messages.
Significant and Growing Internet Usage among
African-Americans
with Limited Targeted Online Content
Offerings. African-Americans
are becoming significant users of the Internet. In one of the
more recent studies available that tracks Internet usage
patterns,
African-Americans
were found to use the Internet more hours per day than the
general online population. Additionally, the growth of Internet
penetration and high-speed Internet penetration in
African-American
households is expected to remain above that of the general
population. Furthermore, the overwhelming number of
African-Americans
say there is not enough online content that is targeted towards
them as a distinct culture with its own needs and values.
(Source: 2005 AOL
African-American
Cyberstudy, conducted for America Online by Images Market
Research). In fact, we believe that there is no one company that
dominates the
African-American
market online and the lack of any strong competitive presence
presents a significant opportunity for us to build an online
business that is highly scalable.
Business
Strategy
Radio Station Portfolio Optimization. Our
strategy is to make select acquisitions of radio stations,
primarily in markets where we already have a presence, and to
divest stations which are no longer strategic in nature. We may
divest stations that do not have an urban format or stations
located in smaller markets or markets where the
African-American
population is smaller, on a relative basis, than other markets
in which we operate. In addition, we are continually looking for
opportunities to upgrade existing radio stations by
strengthening their signals to reach a larger number of
potential listeners.
Investment in Complementary Businesses. We
intend to continue to invest in complementary businesses in the
media and entertainment industry. The primary focus of these
investments will be on businesses that provide entertainment and
information content to
African-American
consumers. Such investments may include the Internet,
publishing, and home video distribution. We believe that our
existing asset base and audience coverage provide us with a
competitive advantage in entering into these new businesses.

Operating
Strategy
To maximize net broadcast revenue and station operating income
at our radio stations, we strive to achieve the largest audience
share of
African-American
listeners in each market, convert these audience share ratings
to advertising revenue, and control operating expenses. Through
our national presence we also provide advertisers with a radio
station advertising platform that is a unique and powerful
delivery mechanism to
African-Americans.
The success of our strategy relies on the following:
|
|
|
|
|
market research, targeted programming and marketing;
|
|
|
|
ownership and syndication of programming content;
|
|
|
|
radio station clustering, programming segmentation and sales
bundling;
|
|
|
|
strategic sales efforts;
|
|
|
|
marketing platform to national advertisers;
|
|
|
|
advertising partnerships and special events;
|
|
|
|
strong management and performance-based incentives; and
|
|
|
|
significant community involvement.
|
Market
Research, Targeted Programming and Marketing
We use market research to tailor the programming, marketing and
promotion of our radio stations to maximize audience share. We
also use our research to reinforce our current programming and
to identify unserved or
6
underserved markets or segments of the
African-American
population and to determine whether to acquire a new radio
station or reprogram one of our existing radio stations to
target those markets or segments.
We also seek to reinforce our targeted programming by creating a
distinct and marketable identity for each of our radio stations.
To achieve this objective, in addition to our significant
community involvement discussed below, we employ and promote
distinct, high-profile on-air personalities at many of our radio
stations, many of whom have strong ties to the
African-American
community.
Ownership
and Syndication of Programming Content
To diversify our revenue base, we seek to develop or acquire
proprietary
African-American
targeted content. We distribute this content in a variety of
ways, utilizing our own network of distribution assets or
through distribution assets owned by others. If we distribute
content through others, we will be paid for providing this
content or receive advertising inventory in exchange. To date,
our programming content efforts have included our investment in
TV One and its related programming, our acquisition of 51% of
the common stock of Reach Media, the creation of an
African-American
news/talk network, the acquisition of Giant Magazine and the
recent development of syndicated radio shows targeting the
Gospel radio market.
Radio
Station Clustering, Programming Segmentation and Sales
Bundling
We strive to build clusters of radio stations in our markets,
with each radio station targeting different demographic segments
of the
African-American
population. This clustering and programming segmentation
strategy allows us to achieve greater penetration into each
segment of our target market. We are then able to offer
advertisers multiple audiences and to bundle the radio stations
for advertising sales purposes when advantageous.
We believe there are several potential benefits that result from
operating multiple radio stations in the same market. First,
each additional radio station in a market provides us with a
larger percentage of the prime advertising time available for
sale within that market. Second, the more stations we program,
the greater the market share we can achieve in our target
demographic groups through the use of segmented programming.
Third, we are often able to consolidate sales, promotional,
technical support and business functions to produce substantial
cost savings. Finally, the purchase of additional radio stations
in an existing market allows us to take advantage of our market
expertise and existing relationships with advertisers.
Sales,
Marketing and Special Events
We have assembled an effective, highly trained sales staff
responsible for converting audience share into revenue. We
operate with a focused, sales-oriented culture, which rewards
aggressive selling efforts through a commission and bonus
compensation structure. We hire and deploy large teams of sales
professionals for each of our stations or station clusters, and
we provide these teams with the resources necessary to compete
effectively in the markets in which we operate. We utilize
various sales strategies to sell and market our stations as
stand-alones, in combination with other stations within a given
market, and across markets, where appropriate.
We have created a national platform of radio stations in some of
the largest
African-American
markets. This platform reaches approximately 14 million
listeners weekly, more than that of any other radio broadcaster
primarily targeting
African-Americans.
National advertisers find advertising on all our radio stations
an efficient and cost-effective way to reach this target
audience. Through our corporate sales department, we bundle and
sell our platform of radio stations to national advertisers,
thereby enhancing our revenue generating opportunities,
expanding our base of advertisers, creating greater demand for
our advertising time inventory and increasing the capacity
utilization of our inventory and making our sales efforts more
efficient.
We engage in joint promotional activities with TV One, Reach
Media and our news/talk joint venture with Reach Media in order
to provide additional value to our advertisers by creating a
more efficient medium to reach
African-American
consumers.
In order to create advertising loyalty, we strive to be the
recognized expert in marketing to the
African-American
consumer in the markets in which we operate. We believe that we
have achieved this recognition by focusing on serving the
African-American
consumer and by creating innovative advertising campaigns and
promotional tie-ins
7
with our advertising clients and sponsoring numerous
entertainment events each year. In these events, advertisers buy
signage, booth space and broadcast promotions to sell a variety
of goods and services to
African-American
consumers. As we expand our presence in our existing markets and
into new markets, we may increase the number of events and the
number of markets in which we host events based upon our
evaluation of the financial viability and economic benefits of
the events.
Strong
Management and Performance-Based Incentives
We focus on hiring and retaining highly motivated and talented
individuals in each functional area of our organization who can
effectively help us implement our growth and operating
strategies. Our management team is comprised of a diverse group
of individuals who bring significant expertise to their
functional areas. To enhance the quality of our management in
the areas of sales and programming, general managers, sales
managers and program directors have significant portions of
their compensation tied to the achievement of certain
performance goals. General managers compensation is based
partially on achieving station operating income benchmarks,
which creates an incentive for management to focus on both sales
growth and expense control. Additionally, sales managers and
sales personnel have incentive packages based on sales goals,
and program directors and on-air talent have incentive packages
focused on maximizing ratings in specific target segments.
Significant
Community Involvement
We believe our active involvement and significant relationships
in the
African-American
community in each of our markets provide a competitive advantage
in targeting
African-American
audiences and significantly improve the marketability of our
radio broadcast time to advertisers who are targeting such
communities. We believe that a radio stations image should
reflect the lifestyle and viewpoints of the target demographic
group it serves. Due to our fundamental understanding of the
African-American
community, we are well positioned to identify music and musical
styles, as well as political and social trends and issues, early
in their evolution. This understanding is then integrated into
significant aspects of our operations and enables us to create
enhanced awareness and name recognition in the marketplace. In
addition, we believe our approach to community involvement leads
to increased effectiveness in developing and updating our
programming formats. We believe our enhanced awareness and more
effective programming formats lead to greater listenership and
higher ratings over the long-term.

Advertising
Revenue
Substantially all of our net broadcast revenue is generated from
the sale of local and national advertising for broadcast on our
radio stations. Local sales are made by the sales staff located
in our markets. National sales are made by firms specializing in
radio advertising sales on the national level. These firms are
paid a commission on the advertising sold. Approximately 61% of
our net broadcast revenue for the year ended December 31,
2006 was generated from the sale of local advertising and 36%
from sales to national advertisers, including network
advertising. The balance of net broadcast revenue is primarily
derived from tower rental income, ticket sales and revenue
related to Radio One sponsored events, management fees and other
revenue.
Advertising rates charged by radio stations are based primarily
on:
|
|
|
|
|
a radio stations audience share within the demographic
groups targeted by the advertisers;
|
|
|
|
the number of radio stations in the market competing for the
same demographic groups; and
|
|
|
|
the supply and demand for radio advertising time.
|
A radio stations listenership is reflected in ratings
surveys that estimate the number of listeners tuned to a radio
station and the time they spend listening to that radio station.
Ratings are used by advertisers to evaluate whether to advertise
on our radio stations, and are used by us to chart audience
growth, set advertising rates and adjust programming.
Advertising rates are generally highest during the morning and
afternoon commuting hours.
Strategic
Diversification
We continually explore opportunities in other forms of media
that are complementary to our core radio business, which we
believe will allow us to leverage our expertise in the
African-American
market and our significant listener base. In January 2006,
through a joint venture with Reach Media, we launched a new
African-American
news/talk radio network. The network features several leading
African-American
personalities. To date, 29 stations have committed to carrying
all or a portion of the networks programming, most of
which are stations not owned by us. In February 2005, we
acquired 51% of the common stock of Reach Media which operates
The Tom Joyner Morning Show and related businesses. Reach Media
primarily derives its revenue from the sale of advertising
inventory in connection with its syndication agreements.
Mr. Joyner is a leading nationally syndicated radio
personality. The Tom Joyner Morning Show is broadcast on over
117 affiliate stations across the United States and is a
top-rated morning show in many of the markets in which it is
broadcast. Reach Media provides programming content for a
television program on TV One and operates
www.BlackAmericaWeb.com, an
African-American
targeted web-site. Reach Media also operates the Tom Joyner Sky
Show, the Tom Joyner Family Reunion and various other special
event-related activities.
11
We currently have invested in the following media businesses:
|
|
|
|
|
TV One, which operates a cable television network offering
programming targeted primarily towards
African-American
viewers (see discussion below); and
|
|
|
|
iBiquity Digital Corporation (iBiquity), a leading
developer of in-band on-channel digital broadcast technology.
|
In July 2003, we entered into a joint venture agreement with an
affiliate of Comcast Corporation and other investors to create
TV One, LLC, an entity formed to operate a cable television
network featuring lifestyle, entertainment and news-related
programming targeted primarily towards
African-American
viewers. We have committed to make a cumulative cash investment
of $74.0 million in TV One over approximately four years,
of which we have already funded $51.6 million. In December
2004, TV One entered into a distribution agreement with DIRECTV,
Inc. (DIRECTV) and certain affiliates of DIRECTV
became investors in TV One. As of December 31, 2006, we
owned approximately 36% of TV One on a fully-converted basis.
We entered into separate network services and advertising
services agreements with TV One in 2003. Under the network
services agreement, which expires in January 2009, we are
providing TV One with administrative and operational support
services and access to Radio One personalities. Under the
advertising services agreement, we are providing a specified
amount of advertising to TV One over a term of five years ending
in January 2009. In consideration of providing these services,
we have received equity in TV One, and receive an annual cash
fee of $500,000 in cash for providing services under the network
services agreement.
We have launched websites for 66 of our radio stations, and we
derive revenue from the sale of advertisements on those
websites. We generally encourage our web advertisers to run
simultaneous radio campaigns and use our radio airwaves to
promote our websites. We have 26 websites, with at least one
website located in every major market in which we broadcast,
that simultaneously stream radio station content. By providing
streaming, we have been able to broaden our listener reach,
particularly to office hour listeners. We believe
streaming has had a positive impact on our radio stations
presence.
Future opportunities could include investments in, or
acquisitions of, companies in diverse media businesses, outdoor
advertising in urban environments, music production and
distribution, publishing, movie distribution, Internet-based
services, and distribution of our content through emerging
distribution systems such as the Internet, cellular phones,
personal digital assistants, digital entertainment devices, and
the home entertainment market.
In December 2006 we acquired certain assets of Giant Magazine.
Giant Magazine is an urban-themed music and lifestyle magazine.
While we generally view the magazine business as a difficult
business in which to operate, we believe that this magazine
complements our existing asset base and can share resources
across our platform of assets, including our radio stations, TV
One, our growing Internet presence and our corporate back-office
functions. Furthermore, as we develop a more comprehensive
online strategy, we believe that Giant Magazine will be well
positioned to support the content needs of our online
initiative, given that much of the content that it creates is
readily transferable to an online environment.
Competition
The radio broadcasting industry is highly competitive. Radio
Ones stations compete for audiences and advertising
revenue with other radio stations and with other media such as
broadcast and cable television, the Internet, satellite radio,
newspapers, magazines, direct mail and outdoor advertising, some
of which may be controlled by horizontally-integrated companies.
Audience ratings and advertising revenue are subject to change
and any adverse change in a market could adversely affect our
net broadcast revenue in that market. If a competing station
converts to a format similar to that of one of our stations, or
if one of our competitors strengthens its operations, our
stations could suffer a reduction in ratings and advertising
revenue. Other radio companies which are larger and have more
resources may also enter, or increase their presence in markets
where we operate. Although we believe our stations are well
positioned to compete, we cannot assure that our stations will
maintain or increase their current ratings or advertising
revenue.
12
The radio broadcasting industry is subject to rapid
technological change, evolving industry standards and the
emergence of new media technologies, which may impact our
business. We cannot assure you that we will have the resources
to acquire new technologies or to introduce new services that
could compete with these new technologies. Several new media
technologies are being, or have been, developed including the
following:
|
|
|
|
|
satellite delivered digital audio radio service, which has
resulted in the introduction of several new satellite radio
services with sound quality equivalent to that of compact discs;
|
|
|
|
audio programming by cable television systems and direct
broadcast satellite systems; and
|
|
|
|
digital audio and video content available for listening
and/or
viewing on the Internet
and/or
available for downloading to portable devices.
|
As a response to these and other competing technologies, we have
entered into an alliance with XM Satellite Radio, whereby we
program one channel on XM Satellite Radios satellite
delivered digital audio radio service. Additionally, along with
most other public radio companies, we have invested in iBiquity,
a developer of digital audio broadcast technology. We have
committed over the course of the next two years to convert most
of our analog broadcast radio stations to in-band, on-channel
digital radio broadcasts, which could provide multi-channel,
multi-format digital radio services in the same bandwidth
currently occupied by traditional AM and FM radio services.
However, we cannot assure you that these arrangements will be
successful or enable us to adapt effectively to these new media
technologies. As of December 31, 2006, we have converted 31
stations to digital broadcast.
Antitrust
Regulation
The agencies responsible for enforcing the federal antitrust
laws, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and the
Department of Justice (DOJ), may investigate
acquisitions. The DOJ has challenged a number of radio
broadcasting transactions. Some of those challenges ultimately
resulted in consent decrees requiring, among other things,
divestitures of certain stations. We cannot predict the outcome
of any specific DOJ or FTC review of a particular acquisition.
For an acquisition meeting certain size thresholds, the
Hart-Scott-Rodino
Act requires the parties to file Notification and Report Forms
concerning antitrust issues with the DOJ and the FTC and to
observe specified waiting period requirements before completing
the acquisition. If the investigating agency raises substantive
issues in connection with a proposed transaction, the parties
involved frequently engage in lengthy discussions
and/or
negotiations with the investigating agency to address those
issues, including restructuring the proposed acquisition or
divesting assets. In addition, the investigating agency could
file suit in federal court to enjoin the acquisition or to
require the divestiture of assets, among other remedies. All
acquisitions, regardless of whether they are required to be
reported under the
Hart-Scott-Rodino
Act, may be investigated by the DOJ or the FTC under the
antitrust laws before or after completion. In addition, private
parties may under certain circumstances bring legal action to
challenge an acquisition under the antitrust laws. The DOJ has
stated publicly that it believes that local marketing
agreements, joint sales agreements, time brokerage agreements
and other similar agreements customarily entered into in
connection with radio station transfers could violate the
Hart-Scott-Rodino
Act if such agreements take effect prior to the expiration of
the waiting period under the
Hart-Scott-Rodino
Act. The DOJ has established certain revenue and audience share
concentration benchmarks with respect to radio station
acquisitions, above which a transaction may receive additional
antitrust scrutiny. The DOJ has also investigated transactions
that do not meet or exceed these benchmarks and has cleared
transactions that do exceed these benchmarks.
Federal
Regulation of Radio Broadcasting
The radio broadcasting industry is subject to extensive and
changing regulation by the Federal Communications Commission
(FCC) of ownership limitations, programming,
technical operations, employment and other business practices.
The FCC regulates radio broadcast stations pursuant to the
Communications Act (the Communications Act) of 1934,
as amended. The Communications Act permits the operation of
radio broadcast stations only in accordance with a license
issued by the FCC upon a finding that the grant of a license
would serve the public interest, convenience and necessity.
Among other things, the FCC:
|
|
|
|
|
assigns frequency bands for radio broadcasting;
|
13
|
|
|
|
|
determines the particular frequencies, locations, operating
power, interference standards and other technical parameters of
radio broadcast stations;
|
|
|
|
issues, renews, revokes and modifies radio broadcast station
licenses;
|
|
|
|
imposes annual regulatory fees and application processing fees
to recover its administrative costs;
|
|
|
|
establishes technical requirements for certain transmitting
equipment to restrict harmful emissions;
|
|
|
|
adopts and implements regulations and policies that affect the
ownership, operation, program content and employment and
business practices of radio broadcast stations; and
|
|
|
|
has the power to impose penalties, including monetary
forfeitures, for violations of its rules and the Communications
Act.
|
The Communications Act prohibits the assignment of an FCC
license, or transfer of control of an FCC licensee, without the
prior approval of the FCC. In determining whether to grant or
renew a radio broadcast license or consent to assignment or
transfer of a license, the FCC considers a number of factors,
including restrictions on foreign ownership, compliance with FCC
media ownership limits and other FCC rules, the licensee (or
proposed licensee) and compliance with the Anti-Drug Abuse Act
of 1988. A licensees failure to comply with the
requirements of the Communications Act or FCC rules and policies
may result in the imposition of sanctions, including
admonishment, fines, the grant of a license renewal of less than
a full eight-year term or with conditions, denial of a license
renewal application, the revocation of an FCC license
and/or the
denial of FCC consent to acquire additional broadcast properties.
Congress, the FCC and, in some cases, local jurisdictions, are
considering and may in the future adopt new laws, regulations
and policies that could affect the operation, ownership and
profitability of our radio stations, result in the loss of
audience share and advertising revenue for our radio broadcast
stations or affect our ability to acquire additional radio
broadcast stations or finance such acquisitions. Such matters
include or may include:
|
|
|
|
|
changes to the license authorization and renewal process;
|
|
|
|
proposals to improve record keeping;
|
|
|
|
proposals to impose spectrum use or other fees on FCC licensees;
|
|
|
|
changes to rules relating to political broadcasting including
proposals to grant free air time to candidates, and other
changes regarding political and non-political program content,
funding, political advertising rates, and sponsorship
disclosures;
|
|
|
|
proposals to restrict or prohibit the advertising of beer, wine
and other alcoholic beverages;
|
|
|
|
proposals regarding the regulation of the broadcast of indecent
or violent content;
|
|
|
|
proposals to increase the actions stations must take to
demonstrate service to their local communities;
|
|
|
|
technical and frequency allocation matters;
|
|
|
|
changes in broadcast multiple ownership, foreign ownership,
cross-ownership and ownership attribution policies;
|
|
|
|
changes to allow satellite radio operators to insert local
content into their programming service;
|
|
|
|
changes to allow telephone companies to deliver audio and video
programming to homes in their service areas; and
|
|
|
|
proposals to alter provisions of the tax laws affecting
broadcast operations and acquisitions.
|
The FCC also has adopted procedures for the auction of broadcast
spectrum in circumstances where two or more parties have filed
mutually exclusive applications for authority to construct new
stations or certain major changes in existing stations. Such
procedures may limit our efforts to modify or expand the
broadcast signals of our stations. We cannot predict what
changes, if any, might be adopted or considered in the future,
or what impact, if any, the implementation of any particular
proposals or changes might have on our business.
14
FCC License Grants and Renewals. In making
licensing determinations, the FCC considers an applicants
legal, technical, financial and other qualifications. The FCC
grants radio broadcast station licenses for specific periods of
time and, upon application, may renew them for additional terms.
A station may continue to operate beyond the expiration date of
its license if a timely filed license renewal application is
pending. Under the Communications Act, radio broadcast station
licenses may be granted for a maximum term of eight years.
Generally, the FCC renews radio broadcast licenses without a
hearing upon a finding that:
|
|
|
|
|
the radio station has served the public interest, convenience
and necessity;
|
|
|
|
there have been no serious violations by the licensee of the
Communications Act or FCC rules and regulations; and
|
|
|
|
there have been no other violations by the licensee of the
Communications Act or FCC rules and regulations which, taken
together, indicate a pattern of abuse.
|
After considering these factors and any petitions to deny a
license renewal application (which may lead to a hearing), the
FCC may grant the license renewal application with or without
conditions, including renewal for a term less than the maximum
otherwise permitted. Historically, our licenses have been
renewed without any conditions or sanctions imposed; however,
there can be no assurance that the licenses of each of our
stations will be renewed for a full term without conditions or
sanctions.
Types of FCC Broadcast Licenses. The FCC
classifies each AM and FM radio station. An AM radio station
operates on either a clear channel, regional channel or local
channel. A clear channel serves wide areas, particularly at
night. A regional channel serves primarily a principal
population center and the contiguous rural areas. A local
channel serves primarily a community and the suburban and rural
areas immediately contiguous to it. Class A, B and C radio
stations each operate unlimited time. Class A radio
stations render primary and secondary service over an extended
area. Class B radio stations render service only over a
primary service area. Class C radio stations render service
only over a primary service area that may be reduced as a
consequence of interference. Class D radio stations operate
either daytime hours only, during limited times only, or
unlimited time with low nighttime power.
FM class designations depend upon the geographic zone in which
the transmitter of the FM radio station is located. The minimum
and maximum facilities requirements for an FM radio station are
determined by its class. In general, commercial FM radio
stations are classified as follows, in order of increasing power
and antenna height: Class A, B1, C3, B, C2, C1, C0 and C.
The FCC has adopted a rule that subjects Class C FM
stations that do not satisfy a certain antenna height
requirement to an involuntary downgrade in class to
Class C0 under certain circumstances.
Radio Ones Licenses. The following table
sets forth information with respect to each of our radio
stations. A broadcast stations market may be different
from its community of license. The coverage of an AM radio
station is chiefly a function of the power of the radio
stations transmitter, less dissipative power losses and
any directional antenna adjustments. For FM radio stations,
signal coverage area is chiefly a function of the ERP of the
radio stations antenna and the HAAT of the radio
stations antenna. ERP refers to the effective
radiated power of an FM radio station. HAAT refers
to the antenna height above average terrain of an FM radio
station.

Renewal of the license is currently
pending before the FCC.
|
To obtain the FCCs prior consent to assign or transfer
control of a broadcast license, an appropriate application must
be filed with the FCC. If the assignment or transfer involves a
substantial change in ownership or control of the licensee, for
example, the transfer or acquisition of more than 50% of the
voting stock, the applicant must give public notice and make the
application available to the public for 30 days. During
this time, interested parties may file petitions with the FCC to
deny the application. Informal objections may be filed any time
until the FCC acts upon the application. If the FCC grants an
assignment or transfer application, administrative procedures
provide for reconsideration of the grant. The Communications Act
also permits the appeal of a contested grant to a federal court
in certain instances.
17
Under the Communications Act, a broadcast license may not be
granted to or held by any persons who are not U.S. citizens
or by any corporation that has more than 20% of its capital
stock owned or voted by
non-U.S. citizens
or entities or their representatives, by foreign governments or
their representatives, or by
non-U.S. corporations.
The Communications Act prohibits indirect foreign ownership
through a parent company of the licensee of more than 25% if the
FCC determines the public interest will be served by the refusal
or revocation of such license.
The FCC generally applies its media ownership limits to
attributable interests. The interests of officers,
directors and those who directly or indirectly hold five percent
or more of the total outstanding votes of a corporation that
holds a broadcast license are generally deemed attributable
interests. Passive investors that hold stock for investment
purposes only may hold attributable interests with the ownership
of 20% or more of the voting stock of the licensee corporation.
An entity with one or more radio stations in a market that
enters into a local marketing agreement or a time brokerage
agreement with another radio station in the same market obtains
an attributable interest in the brokered radio station, if the
brokering station supplies more than 15% of the brokered radio
stations weekly broadcast hours. Similarly, a station
licensees rights under a joint sales agreement
(JSA) to sell more than 15% per week of the
advertising time on another station in the same market
constitutes an attributable ownership interest for purposes of
the FCCs ownership rules. Debt instruments, non-voting
stock, unexercised options and warrants, minority voting
interests in corporations having a single majority shareholder
and limited partnership or limited liability company membership
interests where the interest holder is not materially
involved in the media-related activities of the
partnership or company interests where the holder is not
materially involved in the media-related activities of the
partnership or limited liability company generally do not
subject their holders to attribution unless such interests
implicate the FCCs equity-debt-plus (or EDP)
rule. Under the EDP rule, a major programming supplier or a
same-market media entity will have an attributable interest in a
station if the supplier or same-market media entity also holds
debt or equity, or both, in the station that is greater than 33%
of the value of the stations total debt plus equity. For
purposes of the EDP rule, equity includes all stock, whether
voting or nonvoting, and interest held by limited partners or
limited liability company members that are not materially
involved. A major programming supplier is any supplier that
provides more than 15% of the stations weekly programming
hours.
The Communications Act and FCC rules generally restrict
ownership, operation or control of, or the common holding of
attributable interests in:
|
|
|
|
|
radio broadcast stations above certain numerical limits serving
the same local market;
|
|
|
|
radio broadcast stations combined with television broadcast
stations above certain numerical limits serving the same local
market (radio/television cross ownership); and
|
|
|
|
a radio broadcast station and an
English-language
daily newspaper serving the same local market
(newspaper/broadcast cross-ownership).
|
The media ownership rules are subject to periodic review by the
FCC. In 2003, the FCC adopted new rules to modify ownership
limits, and to change the way a local market is defined and make
JSAs involving more than 15% of a same-market stations
advertising sales attributable under the ownership
limits. The 2003 rules were challenged in court and the Third
Circuit stayed their implementation on the basis that the FCC
did not adequately justify its radio ownership limits.
Subsequently, the Third Circuit partially lifted its stay to
allow the new local market definition and JSA attribution rule
to go into effect. The FCC currently is applying such revisions
to pending and new applications.
The numerical limits on radio stations that one entity may own
in a local market, subject to further review based on the Third
Circuits decision, are as follows:
|
|
|
|
|
in a radio market with 45 or more commercial radio stations, a
party may own, operate or control up to eight commercial radio
stations, not more than five of which are in the same service
(AM or FM);
|
|
|
|
in a radio market with 30 to 44 commercial radio stations, a
party may own, operate or control up to seven commercial radio
stations, not more than four of which are in the same service
(AM or FM);
|
|
|
|
in a radio market with 15 to 29 commercial radio stations, a
party may own, operate or control up to six commercial radio
stations, not more than four of which are in the same service
(AM or FM); and
|
18
|
|
|
|
|
in a radio market with 14 or fewer commercial radio stations, a
party may own, operate or control up to five commercial radio
stations, not more than three of which are in the same service
(AM or FM), except that a party may not own, operate, or control
more than 50% of the radio stations in such market.
|
To apply these tiers, the FCC currently relies on Arbitron Metro
Survey Areas, where they exist. In other areas, the FCC relies
on a contour-overlap methodology. Under this approach, the FCC
uses one overlapping contour methodology for defining a local
radio market and counting the number of stations that the
applicant controls or proposes to control in that market, and it
employs a separate overlapping contour methodology for
determining the number of operating commercial radio stations in
the market for determining compliance with the local radio
ownership caps. For radio stations located outside Arbitron
Metro Survey Areas, the FCC is undertaking a rulemaking to
determine how to define local radio markets in areas located
outside Arbitron Metro Survey Area. The market definition used
by the FCC in applying its ownership rules may not be the same
as that used for purposes of the
Hart-Scott-Rodino
Act.
In its 2003 media ownership decision, the FCC adopted new
cross-media limits to replace the former newspaper-broadcast and
radio-television cross-ownership rules. It voted to grandfather
existing radio or radio/television combinations that otherwise
would violate the revised media ownership rules until the
combination is sold. These provisions have been remanded by the
Third Circuit for further FCC consideration and are currently
subject to a judicial stay. The FCC has commenced a new rule
making proceeding pursuant to the remand from the Third Circuit,
which remains pending.
The attribution and media ownership rules limit the number of
radio stations we may acquire or own in any particular market
and may limit the prospective buyers of any stations we want to
sell. The FCCs rules could affect our business in a number
of ways, including, but not limited to, the following:
|
|
|
|
|
enforcement of a more narrow market definition based upon
Arbitron markets could have an adverse effect on our ability to
accumulate stations in a given area or to sell a group of
stations in a local market to a single entity;
|
|
|
|
restricting the assignment and transfer of control of radio
combinations that exceed the new ownership limits as a result of
the revised local market definitions could adversely affect our
ability to buy or sell a group of stations in a local market
from or to a single entity;
|
|
|
|
attributing JSAs for multiple ownership purposes could limit our
ability to buy or sell time on certain stations; and
|
|
|
|
in general terms, future changes in the way the FCC defines
markets or determines excess market concentration for purposes
of the broadcast multiple ownership rules, could limit our
ability to acquire new stations in certain markets, our ability
to operate stations pursuant to certain agreements, and our
ability to improve the coverage contours of our existing
stations.
|
Programming and Operations. The Communications
Act requires broadcasters to serve the public
interest by presenting programming in response to
community problems, needs and interests and maintaining records
demonstrating its responsiveness. The FCC considers complaints
from listeners about a broadcast stations programming, and
the station is required to maintain complaints on public file
for two years. Stations also must follow FCC rules regulating
political advertising, obscene or indecent programming,
sponsorship identification, contests and lotteries and technical
operation, including limits on human exposure to radio frequency
radiation.
The FCCs rules prohibit a broadcast licensee from
simulcasting more than 25% of its programming on another radio
station in the same broadcast service (that is, AM/AM or FM/FM).
The simulcasting restriction applies if the licensee owns both
radio broadcast stations or owns one and programs the other
through a local marketing agreement, and only if the contours of
the radio stations overlap in a certain manner.
The FCC requires that licensees not discriminate in hiring
practices on the basis of race, color, religion, national origin
or gender. They also require stations with at least five
full-time employees to disseminate information about all
full-time job openings and undertake outreach initiatives from
an FCC list of activities such as participation in job fairs,
internships or scholarship programs. Stations must retain
records of their efforts and keep an annual EEO report in their
public inspection files or post an electronic version on their
websites. Radio
19
stations with more than 10 full-time employees must file
certain annual EEO reports with the FCC midway through their
license term. The FCC is considering whether to apply these
recruitment requirements to part-time employment positions.
From time to time, complaints may be filed against Radio
Ones radio stations alleging violations of these or other
rules. In addition, the FCC may conduct audits or inspections to
ensure and verify licensee compliance with FCC rules and
regulations. Failure to observe these or other rules and
regulations can result in the imposition of various sanctions,
including fines or conditions, the grant of short
(less than the maximum eight year) renewal terms or, for
particularly egregious violations, the denial of a license
renewal application or the revocation of a license.
Employees
As of March 31, 2007, we employed 1,182 full-time
employees and 508 part-time employees. Our employees are
not unionized; however, some of our employees are covered by
collective bargaining agreements that we assumed in connection
with certain of our station acquisitions. We have not
experienced any work stoppages and believe relations with our
employees are satisfactory.
Corporate
Governance
Code of Ethics. We have adopted a code of
ethics that applies to all of our directors, officers (including
our principal financial officer and principal accounting
officer) and employees and meets the requirements of the SEC and
the NASDAQ Stock Market Rules. Our code of ethics can be found
on our website, www.radio-one.com. We will provide a
paper copy of the Code of Ethics, free of charge, upon request.
Audit Committee Charter. Our audit committee
has adopted a charter as required by the NASDAQ Stock Market
Rules. This committee charter can be found on our website,
www.radio-one.com. We will provide a paper copy of the
audit committee charter, free of charge, upon request.
Compensation Committee Charter. Our board of
directors has adopted a compensation committee charter. We will
provide a paper copy of the compensation committee charter, free
of charge, upon request.
Environmental
As the owner, lessee or operator of various real properties and
facilities, we are subject to various federal, state and local
environmental laws and regulations. Historically, compliance
with these laws and regulations has not had a material adverse
effect on our business. There can be no assurance, however, that
compliance with existing or new environmental laws and
regulations will not require us to make significant expenditures
of funds.
Seasonality
Seasonal net broadcast revenue fluctuations are common in the
radio broadcasting industry and are due primarily to
fluctuations in advertising expenditures by local and national
advertisers. Our first quarter generally produces the lowest net
broadcast revenue for the year.

Our future operating results could be adversely affected by a
number of risks and uncertainties, the most significant of which
are described below.
Our
revenue is substantially dependent on spending by advertisers,
and a decrease in such spending would adversely affect our
revenue and operating results.
Substantially all of our revenue is derived from sales of
advertisements and program sponsorships on our stations to local
and national advertisers. We do not obtain long-term commitments
from our advertisers and advertisers may cancel, reduce or
postpone advertisements without penalty, which could adversely
affect our revenue. Generally, advertising tends to decline
during an economic recession or downturn. As a result, our
advertising revenue is likely to be adversely affected by a
recession or downturn in the United States economy, the economy
of an individual geographic market in which we own or operate
radio stations, or other events or circumstances that adversely
affect advertising activity.
We may
lose audience share and advertising revenue to our
competitors.
Our radio stations compete for audiences and advertising revenue
with other radio stations and station groups, and other media
such as broadcast television, newspapers, magazines, cable
television, satellite television, satellite radio, outdoor
advertising, the Internet and direct mail. Adverse changes in
audience ratings and market shares could have a material adverse
effect on our revenue. Larger radio broadcasting companies with
more financial resources than we have may enter the markets in
which we operate. Other stations may change their programming
format or engage in aggressive promotional campaigns to compete
directly with our stations for audiences and advertisers. This
competition could result in lower ratings and advertising
revenue for us or cause us to increase promotion and other
expenses and, consequently, lower our earnings and cash flow.
Changes in population, demographics, audience tastes and other
factors beyond our control could also cause changes in audience
ratings or market share. Failure by us to respond successfully
to these changes could have an adverse effect on our business
and financial performance. We cannot assure you that we will be
able to maintain or increase our current audience ratings and
advertising revenue.
A
disproportionate share of our net revenue comes from a small
number of markets.
Five of the 22 markets in which we own radio stations accounted
for approximately 50% of our radio station net revenue for the
year ended December 31, 2006. The Houston and Washington,
DC markets accounted for approximately 25% of our consolidated
net revenue for the 2006 year. Significant declines in one or
more of these markets (Houston, Washington, DC, Atlanta,
Baltimore and Los Angeles) could have a material adverse effect
on our overall performance. We can provide no assurance that
significant declines will not occur in other markets from which
we derive a significant portion of our revenue.
If we
are unable to successfully identify, acquire and integrate
businesses pursuant to our diversification strategy, our
business and prospects may be adversely impacted.
We are pursuing a strategy of acquiring and investing in other
forms of media that complement our core radio business in an
effort to grow our business and diversify our revenue streams.
This strategy depends on our ability to find suitable
opportunities and obtain acceptable financing. Negotiating
transactions and integrating an acquired business could result
in significant costs and use of managements time and
resources. In addition, the transactions we pursue may prove to
be unprofitable. We can provide no assurance that our
diversification strategy will be successful.
We
must respond to the rapid changes in technology, services and
standards, in order to remain competitive.
Standards in the radio broadcasting industry are evolving and
new media technologies are emerging. We cannot assure you that
we will have the resources to acquire new technologies or to
introduce new services to
21
compete with these new technologies. Several new media
technologies are being, or have been, developed, including the
following:
|
|
|
|
|
satellite delivered digital audio radio service, which has
resulted in the introduction of several new satellite radio
services with sound quality equivalent to that of compact discs;
|
|
|
|
audio programming by cable television systems, direct broadcast
satellite systems, Internet content providers and other digital
audio broadcast formats; and
|
|
|
|
digital audio and video content available for listening
and/or
viewing on the Internet
and/or
available for downloading to portable devices.
|
We cannot assure you that we will be able to adapt successfully
to these new media technologies.
The
loss of key personnel, including on-air talent, could disrupt
the management and operations of our business.
Our business depends upon the continued efforts, abilities and
expertise of our executive officers and other key employees,
including on-air personalities. We believe that the combination
of skills and experience possessed by our executive officers
could be difficult to replace, and that the loss of one or more
of them could have a material adverse effect on us, including
the impairment of our ability to execute our business strategy.
In addition several of our on-air personalities and syndicated
radio programs hosts have large loyal audiences in their
respective broadcast areas and may be significantly responsible
for the ranking of a station. The loss of such on-air
personalities could impact the ability of the station to sell
advertising and our ability to derive revenue from syndicating
programs hosted by them. We cannot be assured that these
individuals will remain with us or will retain their current
audiences.
Our
business strategy could be hampered by a lack of attractive
acquisition opportunities, difficulties in integrating those
acquisitions or delays in completing divestitures.
Our business strategy partially depends on our ability to
identify attractive radio stations in strategic markets at
reasonable prices and to divest of radio stations that are no
longer strategic to our core business. Some of the material
risks that could hinder our ability to implement this strategy
include:
|
|
|
|
|
reduction in the number of suitable acquisition targets due to
increased competition for acquisition;
|
|
|
|
inability to find buyers for radio stations we target for sale
at attractive prices due to decreasing market prices for radio
stations;
|
|
|
|
failure or delays in completing acquisitions or divestitures due
to difficulties in obtaining required regulatory approval,
including possible difficulties by the seller or buyer in
obtaining antitrust approval for acquisitions in markets where
we already own multiple stations or establishing compliance with
broadcast ownership rules;
|
|
|
|
difficulty in integrating operations and systems and managing a
large group of radio stations and diverse businesses;
|
|
|
|
failure of some acquisitions to prove profitable or generate
sufficient cash flow; and
|
|
|
|
inability to finance acquisitions on acceptable terms, through
incurring debt or issuing common stock.
|
Our
business depends on maintaining our licenses with the FCC. We
could be prevented from operating a radio station if we fail to
maintain its license.
We are required to maintain radio broadcasting licenses issued
by the FCC. These licenses are ordinarily issued for a maximum
term of eight years and are renewable. Our radio broadcasting
licenses expire at various times through August 1, 2014.
Interested third parties may challenge our renewal applications.
In addition, we are subject to extensive and changing regulation
by the FCC with respect to such matters as programming,
indecency standards, technical operations, employment and
business practices. If we or any of our significant
stockholders, officers, or
22
directors violate the FCCs rules and regulations or the
Communications Act, or is convicted of a felony, the FCC may
commence a proceeding to impose fines or sanctions upon us.
Examples of possible sanctions include the imposition of fines,
the renewal of one or more of our broadcasting licenses for a
term of fewer than eight years or the revocation of our
broadcast licenses. If the FCC were to issue an order denying a
license renewal application or revoking a license, we would be
required to cease operating the radio station covered by the
license only after we had exhausted administrative and judicial
review without success.
There
is significant uncertainty regarding the FCCs media
ownership rules, and such rules could restrict our ability to
acquire radio stations.
The Communications Act and FCC rules and policies limit the
number of broadcasting properties that any person or entity may
own (directly or by attribution) in any market and require FCC
approval for transfers of control and assignments of licenses.
The FCCs media ownership rules remain in flux and subject
to further agency and court proceedings. (See
Business Federal Regulation of Radio
Broadcasting.)
In addition to the FCC media ownership rules, the outside media
interests of our officers and directors could limit our ability
to acquire stations. The filing of petitions or complaints
against Radio One or any FCC licensee from which we are
acquiring a station could result in the FCC delaying the grant
of, or refusing to grant or imposing conditions on its consent
to the assignment or transfer of control of licenses. The
Communications Act and FCC rules and policies also impose
limitations on
non-U.S. ownership
and voting of our capital stock.
Increased
enforcement by FCC of its indecency rules against the broadcast
industry.
In 2004, the FCC indicated that it was enhancing its enforcement
efforts relating to the regulation of indecency. Congress has
increased the penalties for broadcasting indecent programming
and potentially subject broadcasters to license revocation,
renewal or qualification proceedings in the event that they
broadcast indecent material. In addition, the FCCs
heightened focus on the indecency regulatory scheme, against the
broadcast industry generally, may encourage third parties to
oppose our license renewal applications or applications for
consent to acquire broadcast stations.
Future
asset impairment of our FCC licenses or goodwill could have an
adverse effect.
Goodwill and intangible assets totaled approximately
$2.0 billion at December 31, 2006, primarily
attributable to acquisitions in recent years. We are required by
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142,
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, to test
our goodwill and intangible assets for impairment at least
annually. Impairment is measured as the excess of the carrying
value of the goodwill or intangible over its fair value.
Impairment may result from deterioration in our performance,
changes in anticipated future cash flows, changes in business
plans, adverse market conditions, adverse changes in applicable
laws and regulations, or other factors. The amount of any
impairment must be expensed as a charge to operations. As a
result of impairment testing performed in the fourth quarter of
2006, the Company recognized an approximate $63.3 million
impairment charge to its goodwill and radio broadcast licenses
in 2006 for its Los Angeles and Louisville markets. Any future
determination of further impairment of our FCC licenses and or
goodwill could have an adverse effect on our financial condition
and results of operations.
Two
common stockholders have a majority voting interest in Radio One
and have the power to control matters on which our common
stockholders may vote, and their interests may conflict with
yours.
As of April 30, 2007, our Chairperson and her son, our
President and CEO, collectively held approximately 83.3% of the
outstanding voting power of our common stock. As a result, our
Chairperson and the CEO will control our management and policies
and most decisions involving Radio One, including transactions
involving a change of control, such as a sale or merger. In
addition, certain covenants in our debt instruments require that
our Chairperson and the CEO maintain a specified ownership and
voting interest in Radio One, and prohibit other parties
voting interests from exceeding specified amounts. In addition,
the TV One operating agreement provides for adverse consequences
to Radio One in the event our Chairperson and CEO fail to
maintain a specified ownership and voting
23
interest in us. Our Chairperson and the CEO have agreed to vote
their shares together in elections of members to the board of
directors.
Our
substantial level of debt could limit our ability to grow and
compete.
As of March 31, 2007, we had indebtedness of approximately
$937.5 million. In June 2005, we borrowed
$437.5 million under our credit facility to retire all
outstanding obligations under our previous credit facilities.
Draw downs of revolving loans under the credit facility are
subject to compliance with provisions of our credit agreement,
including, but not limited to, the financial covenants. As of
December 31, 2006, we are permitted to borrow up to an
additional approximately $31.3 million under our new credit
facility. See Managements Discussion and
Analysis Liquidity and Capital Resources. A
portion of our indebtedness bears interest at variable rates.
Increases in interest rates could increase the cost of our
credit facilities. We have entered into various interest rate
hedges to reduce our overall exposure to variable interest
rates, consistent with the Credit Agreement which requires that
at least 50% of our debt obligations be fixed rate in nature.
Our substantial level of indebtedness could adversely affect us
for various reasons, including limiting our ability to:
|
|
|
|
|
obtain additional financing for working capital, capital
expenditures, acquisitions, debt payments or other corporate
purposes;
|
|
|
|
have sufficient funds available for operations, future business
opportunities or other purposes, after paying debt service;
|
|
|
|
compete with competitors that have less debt than we do; and
|
|
|
|
react to changing market conditions, changes in our industry and
economic downturns.
|
The foregoing list is not exhaustive. Additional risks and
uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently
believe to be immaterial also may adversely impact our business.
Should any risks or uncertainties develop into actual events,
these developments could have material adverse effects on our
business, financial condition, and results of operations. In
addition, our debt agreements contain covenants that may limit
our ability to borrow additional money, purchase or sell assets,
incur liens, enter into transactions with affiliates,
consolidation or mergers, and other restrictive covenants that
may limit our operational flexibility.
We
could incur adverse effects from our voluntary stock option
grants review and resulting financial
restatements.
As described in the Explanatory Note and Note 2 to the
Consolidated Financial Statements, we have recorded additional
stock-based compensation expense and related tax effects with
regard to certain past stock option grants, and restated certain
previously filed financial statements included in this
Form 10-K.
The stock option grant review and related activities have
resulted in substantial expenses for legal, accounting, tax and
other professional services, have diverted managements
attention from the
day-to-day
business, and could in the future harm our business, financial
condition, results of operations and cash flows. In addition,
the stock option grant review and restatement of our prior
financial statements have exposed us to greater risks associated
with litigation, regulatory proceedings and government
enforcement actions. We have received a letter of informal
inquiry from the SEC regarding the review of our stock option
accounting. We intend to fully cooperate with the SECs
inquiry. We are unable to predict whether a formal inquiry will
be initiated or what consequences any further inquiry may have
on us. We are unable to predict the likelihood of or potential
outcomes from litigation, regulatory proceedings or government
enforcement actions relating to our past stock option practices.
The resolution of these matters could be time-consuming and
expensive, further distract management from other business
concerns and harm our business. Furthermore, if we were subject
to adverse findings in litigation, regulatory proceedings or
government enforcement actions, we could be required to pay
damages or penalties or have other remedies imposed, which could
harm our business and financial condition.
While we believe that we have made appropriate judgments in
determining the correct measurement dates for our historical
stock option grants, the SEC may disagree with the manner in
which we have accounted for and reported the financial impact.
Accordingly, there is a risk we may have to further restate
prior financial statements, amend prior filings with the SEC, or
take other actions not currently contemplated.
24
We have received NASDAQ Staff Determination letters stating
that, as a result of the delayed filing of this
Form 10-K
and our first quarter
Form 10-Q,
we were subject to delisting from the NASDAQ Stock Market. We
have requested an extension to file and believe that, with the
filing of this
Form 10-K
and our first quarter
Form 10-Q,
the non-compliance with Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(14) will
be remedied, subject to NASDAQs completion of its
compliance protocols. If the SEC disagrees with the manner in
which we have accounted for the financial impact of past stock
option grants, there could be further delays in filing
subsequent SEC reports that could result in delisting of our
common stock from the NASDAQ Stock Market.
If we do not successfully maintain effective internal control
over financial reporting or implement the remedial measures we
have identified to address the control deficiencies related to
our restatement, we could fail to prevent or detect another
material misstatement of our financial statements or otherwise
fail to meet our financial reporting obligations. This could
have a material adverse effect on our business, financial
condition and results of operations and, in turn, could result
in a loss of investor confidence in the accuracy and
completeness of our financial reports, which could have an
adverse effect on our stock price.

None.
The types of properties required to support each of our radio
stations include offices, studios and transmitter/antenna sites.
We typically lease our studio and office space with lease terms
ranging from five to 10 years in length. A stations
studios are generally housed with its offices in business
districts. We generally consider our facilities to be suitable
and of adequate size for our current and intended purposes. We
lease a majority of our main transmitter/antenna sites and
associated broadcast towers and, when negotiating a lease for
such sites, we try to obtain a lengthy lease term with options
to renew. In general, we do not anticipate difficulties in
renewing facility or transmitter/antenna site leases, or in
leasing additional space or sites, if required.
We own substantially all of our equipment, consisting
principally of transmitting antennae, transmitters, studio
equipment and general office equipment. The towers, antennae and
other transmission equipment used by Radio Ones stations
are generally in good condition, although opportunities to
upgrade facilities are periodically reviewed. The tangible
personal property owned by Radio One and the real property owned
or leased by Radio One are subject to security interests under
our credit facility.

ITEM 3.

LEGAL
PROCEEDINGS
|
In November 2001, Radio One and certain of its officers and
directors were named as defendants in a class action shareholder
complaint filed in the United States District Court for the
Southern District of New York, captioned, In re Radio One, Inc.
Initial Public Offering Securities Litigation, Case
No. 01-CV-10160.
Similar complaints were filed in the same court against hundreds
of other public companies (Issuers) that conducted initial
public offerings of their common stock in the late 1990s
(the IPO Lawsuits). In the complaint filed against
Radio One (as amended), the plaintiffs claimed that Radio One,
certain of its officers and directors, and the underwriters of
certain of its public offerings violated Section 11 of the
Securities Act. The plaintiffs claim was based on
allegations that Radio Ones registration statement and
prospectus failed to disclose material facts regarding the
compensation to be received by the underwriters, and the stock
allocation practices of the underwriters. The complaint also
contains a claim for violation of Section 10(b) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 based on allegations that this
omission constituted a deceit on investors. The plaintiffs seek
unspecified monetary damages and other relief.
In July 2003, a Special Litigation Committee of Radio Ones
board of directors approved in principle a settlement proposal
with the plaintiffs that is anticipated to include most of the
Issuers. The proposed settlement would provide for the dismissal
with prejudice of all claims against the participating Issuers
and their officers and the assignment to plaintiffs of certain
potential claims that the Issuers may have against their
underwriters. The tentative settlement also provides that, in
the event that plaintiffs ultimately recover less than a
guaranteed sum from the underwriters, plaintiffs would be
entitled to payment by each participating Issuers insurer
of a pro rata share of
25
any shortfall in the plaintiffs guaranteed recovery. In
September 2003, in connection with the proposed settlement,
Radio Ones named officers and directors extended the
tolling agreement so that it would not expire prior to any
settlement being finalized.
In June 2004, Radio One executed a final settlement agreement
with the plaintiffs. In February 2005, the court issued a
decision certifying a class action for settlement purposes and
granting preliminary approval of the settlement subject to
modification of certain bar orders contemplated by the
settlement. In August 2005, the court reaffirmed class
certification and preliminary approval of the modified
settlement in a comprehensive order. The settlement is still
subject to statutory notice requirements and final judicial
approval. A form of Notice was sent to members of the settlement
classes beginning in November 2005. In April 2006, the court
held a Final Settlement Fairness Hearing. The courts
decision on final approval of the settlement remains pending.
Radio One is involved from time to time in various routine legal
and administrative proceedings and threatened legal and
administrative proceedings incidental to the ordinary course of
our business. Radio One believes the resolution of such matters
will not have a material adverse effect on its business,
financial condition or results of operations.

Dividends
Since first selling our common stock publicly in May 1999, we
have not declared any cash dividends on our common stock. We
intend to retain future earnings for use in our business and do
not anticipate declaring or paying any cash or stock dividends
on shares of our common stock in the foreseeable future. In
addition, any determination to declare and pay dividends will be
made by our board of directors in light of our earnings,
financial position, capital requirements, contractual
restrictions contained in our credit facility and the indentures
governing our senior subordinated notes, and other factors as
the board of directors deems relevant. See

ITEM 7.
|
MANAGEMENTS
DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS
|
The following information should be read in conjunction with
Selected Financial Data and the Consolidated
Financial Statements and Notes thereto included elsewhere in
this report.
Previously filed annual reports on
Form 10-K
and 10-K/A
and quarterly reports on
Form 10-Q,
for fiscal periods commencing on or after January 1, 1999,
affected by the restatements contained in this
Form 10-K
have not been amended and should no longer be relied upon.
RESTATEMENT
NOTE
In this
Form 10-K,
we are restating, for reasons described below, the consolidated
balance sheet as of December 31, 2005 and the related
consolidated statements of operations, stockholders equity
and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2005 and
2004. This
Form 10-K
reflects the restatement of Selected Consolidated Financial Data
for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004, 2003 and 2002
in Item 6, and Managements Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
in Item 7 for the years ended December 31, 2005 and
2004. In addition, we are restating the unaudited quarterly
financial information and financial statements for the interim
periods of 2005. The unaudited quarterly financial information
and financial statements for the interim periods of 2006 are not
restated, and the impact from the restatement was recorded in
the three months ended December 31, 2006, as it did not
have a material impact on 2006 annual or interim operating
results.
The restatements do not result in a change to our previously
reported revenue, cash flow from operations or total cash and
cash equivalents shown in our historical consolidated financial
statements. The stock-based compensation charges, including the
tax effect and other adjustments, decreased net income by
approximately $9.0 million for the years ended
December 31, 1999 through December 31, 2005. For the
year ended December 31, 2006, the stock-based compensation
charges, including the tax effect and other adjustments related
to the restatement increased the net loss by $246,000.
We have not amended any of our previously filed annual or
quarterly reports on
Form 10-K
or 10-K/A
for the periods affected by the restatement. For this reason,
the consolidated financial statements and related financial
information contained in such previously filed reports for the
period from January 1, 1999 through December 31, 2005
should no longer be relied upon.
Audit
committee review
Prompted by numerous headlines regarding the Securities and
Exchange Commissions (SEC) investigation of
options practices by public companies, we conducted a voluntary,
internal review of our historical stock option grant practices
and related accounting. The review covered options granted
during the period from May 1999 (the date of our initial public
offering) through December 2006. Based on our preliminary
findings, the Companys audit committee retained the law
firm of Covington & Burling LLP
(Covington) to assist them in conducting a full
investigation of our past option grant practices. Covington
retained three information technology vendors to facilitate the
search and retrieval of electronic data from our computer and
backup storage systems, interviewed 27 current and former
employees, board members, executive officers and outside counsel
and reviewed over a million pages of documents. The documents
reviewed included compensation committee and board meeting
minutes, written consents, electronic data, employment and
payroll records, employment agreements and offer letters, grant
agreements and notices, SEC filings, recipient lists, stock
option database information, and other relevant documents. Based
on Covingtons investigation, the audit committee found no
fraud or intentional wrongdoing. As a result of the internal
review and investigation by Covington, the audit committee found
that the original measurement dates of certain stock option
grants, for financial accounting purposes, did not meet the
requirements of Accounting Principles Board (APB)
Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to
Employees. Consequently, for financial accounting
purposes, we made the decision to revise the measurement dates
for nine of the large grants awarded, and six individual grants,
consistent with the standards of APB Opinion No. 25. With
the exception of one grant, the closing price of our stock at
the original stated grant date was lower than the closing price
on the revised measurement date, which resulted in additional
stock-based compensation expense in each of the
34
years from 1999 through 2006. The additional stock-based
compensation expense in some years was not material; the
adjustment to 2006 was not material and was recorded in the
fourth quarter of 2006.
Stock
options grant summary
From May 1999 through December 31, 2006, we awarded stock
options covering approximately 9.5 million shares of common
stock. As shown in the table below, there were six annual
company-wide grants to eligible employees as well as grants to
executive officers, non-employee board members and individual
employees. There was no annual grant to employees in 2004 and no
annual grant to employees, executive officers or non-employee
board members in 2006. Other than non-employee board members and
one contractor, we did not award stock options to non-employees.

Adjustments
to measurement dates
The requirement to revise the measurement dates of certain stock
option grants, for financial accounting purposes, to meet the
measurement date criteria of APB Opinion No. 25, is
attributed to a number of different circumstances, described in
the following paragraphs. Although measurement dates were
adjusted in nine of the 11 large grants, 93% of the
additional pre-tax stock-based compensation expense recorded is
attributable to the April 2001 and the October 2000 grants. All
remaining non-forfeited options awarded as part of the April
2001 grant were cancelled in May 2007. Of the nine large grants
where measurement dates were revised, five involved grants to
executive officers and/or non-employee directors, and the
resulting additional pre-tax stock-based compensation expense
was approximately $7.8 million.
No contemporaneous documentation of
approval. In the December 2002 and December
2003 company-wide grants, one of which also included
executive officers, there was no contemporaneous documentation
to confirm that compensation committee or board approval had
occurred on the indicated grant date. Grant approval in each
case was documented by unanimous written consent
(UWC), using the as of date in the
signed consent as the approval date. The measurement dates were
adjusted to conform to the date on which the last consent was
received, as evidenced by the header on the return telecopy,
since the required granting actions, including approval, were
not complete until the signed consents were returned to us. In
the August 2003, June 2004 and May 2005 grants to
non-employee board members, there was no contemporaneous
documentation to confirm that approval
35
had occurred on the original grant date. The August 2003 and
June 2004 measurement dates were revised to the date that the
Form 4 was filed with the SEC, which were two days after
the originally assigned measurement dates for both grants. The
May 2005 measurement date was revised to the date approval
occurred, which was several weeks later.
Selection of grant date prior to approval. In
the December 2001 company-wide grant, the grant date
selected was prior to the date on which the compensation
committee approved the grant and the schedule of option
recipients. The measurement date was adjusted to the date of the
compensation committee meeting during which the related final
granting action of approval occurred. In the April 2001 grant to
executive officers and non-employee board members, the grant was
ratified at a meeting of the board of directors, at which the
board specified a designated grant date and corresponding
exercise price that preceded the date of the board meeting by
several weeks. The measurement date was adjusted to the date
that the board of directors ratified the grant, as reflected in
the board minutes. That grant accounted for 84% of the
additional pre-tax stock-based compensation expense recorded.
None of these options was exercised and no individual received a
financial benefit from this grant. All remaining non-forfeited
options awarded with this grant were cancelled in May 2007.
Lack of finality of recipient list on company-wide
grants. In the October 2000 and May
2005 company-wide grants, the list of grant recipients and
the number of options awarded to each recipient was not
documented or determined with finality until a date subsequent
to the original measurement date. Because there was either no
date on the final recipient lists, or because the recipient list
was not final until after the original grant date, we determined
the revised measurement date for the company-wide grant based on
e-mail,
option database record add date, employee communications, and
other available documentation.
Improper measurement date selection. In each
of the six company-wide grants, certain recipients, including a
contractor in one case, were added or option amounts were
increased or decreased after the revised measurement date. In
each of these cases, the best available evidence was used to
determine the appropriate measurement date for the affected
individual grant. The documentation that was relied on included
the date of the letter communicating the terms of the award to
the employee, the option database record add date and
e-mail.
Incorrect measurement dates for new hire and other
grants. In three instances, the grant date for
options offered to new employees as an incentive to accept the
offer preceded the actual start date for the employee. This
occurred either because the grant date used was the date of the
offer letter rather than the start date or the employees
start date was delayed but the grant date was not changed
accordingly. In addition, there were three individual grants
related to an employment agreement or status which were
incorrectly recorded and adjusted to the appropriate grant
measurement date. As a result, we recognized $11,000 of
additional pre-tax stock-based compensation expense for the
period from January 1, 1999 through December 31, 2005,
relating to six individual grants.

Accounting
impact
As a result of the investigation, we recorded additional
stock-based compensation expense, after tax, of approximately
$9.2 million, spread over the eight-year period from 1999
through 2006. The impact on our consolidated balance sheet at
December 31, 2006 was an increase in additional paid-in
capital of $9.3 million and an increase in accumulated
deficit of $9.2 million, and at December 31, 2005, the
impact was an increase in additional paid-in capital of
$9.2 million and an increase in accumulated deficit of
$9.0 million. There was no impact on revenue.

Taxes
The tax consequences of the incorrect measurement dates have
been computed and attributed to the years in which the errors
arose. In the aggregate, the financial impact of these tax
adjustments is a liability of $503,000 as of December 31,
2006. As a result of the change in measurement dates described
above, certain stock options granted from May 1999 to December
2005 were issued at prices below fair market value on the
revised measurement date and should have been classified as
Non-Qualified Stock Options (NQs), rather than
Incentive Stock Options (ISOs). Due to the
differences in the tax treatment between ISOs and NQs, we
underreported or under-withheld certain payroll taxes for those
NQ options. The tax liabilities, including interest and
penalties, that we have recorded include the impact of the
reclassification of these options for tax purposes as depicted
in the pre-tax adjustments column of the table included in
Accounting Impact above. There were no options exercised
in 1999 and 2000 for any grants that included revised
measurement dates; hence, there was no resulting pre-tax
adjustment impact. The income tax benefit of the additional
stock-based compensation expense is significantly offset by the
impact of Internal Revenue Code Section 162(m) limitations
for three executive officers awarded options for the April 2001
grant. As a result of Section 162(m), approximately
$2.4 million of the tax benefit lost was because of the
maximum $1.0 million of deductible compensation allowed for
federal income tax purposes.
Judgment
and interpretation
The revised measurement dates were based on managements
assessment of the date on which all of the required actions for
a specific grant were final. However, the lack of conclusive
evidence for certain grants required management to exercise
judgment in determining the revised measurement dates in those
cases. We believe that we have used the best date that met all
the conditions that constitute a measurement date under APB
Opinion No. 25 in this restatement, taking into
consideration all of the available evidence. We also believe our
approach is the most appropriate way to establish the
measurement date, consistent with the SECs guidance that
the appropriate accounting will depend on the particular facts
and circumstances, and that the issuer must use all available
relevant information to form a reasonable conclusion.
Alternative approaches to those used by us could have resulted
in different compensation expense than those recorded by us in
this restatement. Solely for the purpose of assessing the
possible effect on compensation expense that using different
measurement dates could have had, we selected alternative
measurement dates, if any, that had any reasonable support, and
calculated the resulting additional compensation expense. Based
on this assessment, the resulting additional stock-based
compensation could have been as high as approximately
$12.3 million on a pre-tax basis, instead of approximately
$9.3 million included in this restatement. The possible
additional $3.0 million pre-tax compensation expense resulting
from the selection to alternate measurement dates does not
materially impact the affected interim or annual results of
operations for the seven-year period covering the restatement.
Regulatory
matters
We have received a letter of informal inquiry from the SEC
requesting information related to our stock option grant
practices review. The SEC letter states that the informal
inquiry should not be construed as an indication by the SEC or
its staff that any violation of law has occurred, or has an
adverse reflection upon any person, entity or security. We
intend to cooperate fully with the SEC in this matter.
We have received NASDAQ Staff Determination notices that we are
not in compliance with NASDAQ Marketplace Rules for continued
listing because we have not timely filed our Annual Report on
Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2006 or our Quarterly
Report on
Form 10-Q
for the quarter ended March 31, 2007. These delisting
notifications are routine procedure when a NASDAQ listed company
fails to complete a required filing in a timely manner. We have
requested an extension to file and believe that with the filing
of this
Form 10-K
and our subsequent filing of our
Form 10-Q
for the quarter ended March 31, 2007, we will have returned
to compliance with the rules.
Other
restatement item
In addition to the adjustments related to the stock option
review, the restated consolidated financial statements presented
in this
Form 10-K
include an adjustment to correct an accounting error for the
year ended December 31,
38
2005. This correction relates to a change in methodology in
determining the carry forward of prior year net operating losses
(NOLs) for state tax purposes. In connection with
the change in methodology, an error was made in calculating the
NOLs for certain states for 2005. The impact on the financial
statements for the year ended December 31, 2005 is an
additional deferred tax expense of approximately
$1.1 million. The correction pertained to and is recorded
in the three months ended December 31, 2005, and did not
have a material impact on 2005 interim or annual results. The
combined impact of the state tax NOL correction and the
stock-based compensation adjustments described above reduced net
income by approximately $1.9 million and
$10.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2005 and
the seven-year restatement periods from 1999 through 2005,
respectively.
Financial
Statements
See Note 2 to Consolidated Financial Statements for the
impact of these adjustments on the consolidated financial
statements and footnotes.
Overview
In 2006, our net broadcast revenue declined slightly compared to
minimal growth for the radio broadcast industry. When compared
to the revenue performance of the markets in which we operate,
our slight revenue decline in 2006 was consistent with that
experienced in those markets. Our 2006 revenue performance was
impacted by the significant decline in revenue at our Los
Angeles station. Overall industry growth is expected to remain
stagnant and we remain cautious about the state of the radio
industry. As a result, we will continue to be prudent with
respect to our radio acquisition strategy, and will continue to
monitor our cost growth closely.
Competition from digital audio players, the Internet and
satellite radio, among other competitors, are some of the
reasons the radio industry has seen such slow growth over the
past few years. Advertisers have shifted their advertising
budgets away from traditional media such as newspapers,
broadcast television and radio to these new media forms.
Internet companies have evolved from being large sources of
advertising revenue for radio companies in the
late-1990s,
to being significant competitors for advertising dollars. All of
these dynamics present significant challenges for companies such
as ours as we look to maintain our listener levels and find new
sources of revenue. We remain hopeful that the radio industry
will show signs of recovery in 2007. Whether or not recovery
occurs, we intend to build a company that will provide
advertisers and creators of content a multifaceted way to reach
African-American
consumers.
Results
of Operations
Revenue
We primarily derive revenue from the sale of advertising time
and program sponsorships to local and national advertisers.
Advertising revenue is affected primarily by the advertising
rates our radio stations are able to charge, as well as the
overall demand for radio advertising time in a market. These
rates are largely based upon a radio stations audience
share in the demographic groups targeted by advertisers, the
number of radio stations in the related market, and the supply
of, and demand for, radio advertising time. Advertising rates
are generally highest during morning and afternoon commuting
hours.
In February 2005, we acquired 51% of the common stock of Reach
Media, Inc. (Reach Media). Reach Media primarily
derives revenue from the sale of advertising time on the
affiliate stations that broadcast the Tom Joyner Morning Show.
The affiliate radio stations provide Reach Media with
advertising inventory on their stations, which is then sold to
the marketplace through a sales representative agreement with
ABC Radio Networks. ABC Radio Networks guarantees Reach Media an
agreed upon amount of annual revenue, with the potential to earn
additional amounts if certain revenue goals are met. The
agreement with ABC Radio Networks runs through 2009. Additional
revenue is generated by Reach Media from special events,
sponsorships, its internet business and other related activities.
During the year ended December 31, 2006, approximately 61%
of our net revenue was generated from local advertising and
approximately 36% was generated from national spot advertising,
including network advertising. In comparison, during the year
ended December 31, 2005, approximately 66% of our net
revenue was generated from
39
local advertising and approximately 32% was generated from
national spot advertising, including network advertising. During
the year ended 2004, approximately 70% of our net revenue was
generated from local advertising and approximately 27% was
generated from national advertising, including network
advertising. The change in the 2005 versus 2004 revenue mix is
primarily due to the 2005 consolidation of the March through
December operating results of Reach Media. The balance of
revenue was generated from tower rental income, ticket sales and
revenue related to our sponsored events, management fees and
other revenue.
In the broadcasting industry, radio stations often utilize trade
or barter agreements to reduce cash expenses by exchanging
advertising time for goods or services. In order to maximize
cash revenue for our spot inventory, we closely monitor the use
of trade and barter agreements.
Expenses
Our significant broadcast expenses are (i) employee
salaries and commissions, (ii) programming expenses,
(iii) advertising and promotion expenses, (iv) rental
of premises for office facilities and studios, (v) rental
of transmission tower space and (vi) music license royalty
fees. We strive to control these expenses by centralizing
certain functions such as finance, accounting, legal, human
resources and management information systems and the overall
programming management function. We also use our multiple
stations, market presence and purchasing power to negotiate
favorable rates with certain vendors and national representative
selling agencies.
We generally incur advertising and promotional expenses to
increase our audiences. However, because Arbitron reports
ratings quarterly, any changed ratings and the effect on
advertising revenue tends to lag behind the incurrence of
advertising and promotional expenditures.
Measurement
of Performance
We monitor and evaluate the growth and operational performance
of our business using net income and the following key metrics:
(a) Net broadcast revenue: The
performance of an individual radio station or group of radio
stations in a particular market is customarily measured by its
ability to generate net broadcast revenue. Net broadcast revenue
consists of gross broadcast revenue, net of local and national
agency and outside sales representative commissions consistent
with industry practice. Net broadcast revenue is recognized in
the period in which advertisements are broadcast. Net broadcast
revenue also includes advertising aired in exchange for goods
and services, which is recorded at fair value, revenue from
sponsored events and other revenue.
(b) Station operating income: Net (loss)
income before depreciation and amortization, income taxes,
interest income, interest expense, equity in loss of affiliated
company, minority interest in income of subsidiaries, other
expense, corporate expenses and non-cash and stock-based
compensation expenses, impairment of long-lived assets and
income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax, is
commonly referred to in our industry as station operating
income. Station operating income is not a measure of financial
performance under generally accepted accounting principles.
Nevertheless, we believe station operating income is often a
useful measure of a broadcasting companys operating
performance and is a significant basis used by our management to
measure the operating performance of our stations within the
various markets. Station operating income provides helpful
information about our results of operations, apart from expenses
associated with our physical plant, income taxes provision,
investments, debt financings, overhead and non-cash
compensation. Station operating income is frequently used as a
basis for comparing businesses in our industry, although our
measure of station operating income may not be comparable to
similarly titled measures of other companies. Station operating
income does not represent operating loss or cash flow from
operating activities, as those terms are defined under generally
accepted accounting principles, and should not be considered as
an alternative to those measurements as an indicator of our
performance.
(c) Station operating income
margin: Station operating income margin
represents station operating income as a percentage of net
broadcast revenue. Station operating income margin is not a
measure of financial performance under generally accepted
accounting principles. Nevertheless, we believe that station
operating
40
income margin is a useful measure of our performance because it
provides helpful information about our profitability as a
percentage of our net broadcast revenue.

commissions, which were approximately $44.5 million during
2006, compared to approximately $47.0 million during the
same period in 2005. Despite the consolidation of twelve months
of operating results for Reach Media during the year ended
December 31, 2006, compared to ten months of operating
results for the same period in 2005, net broadcast revenue
decreased 0.4% for the year ended December 31, 2006,
compared to the same period in 2005. The decrease in net
broadcast revenue was due to a decline in overall industry
revenue in the markets in which we operate, a significant
revenue decline in our Los Angeles market and more modest
declines in our Atlanta, Charlotte, Dallas and Washington, DC
markets. These declines were offset partially by increases in
net broadcast revenue experienced in our Baltimore, Houston,
Richmond and St. Louis markets, among others, increased net
broadcast revenue due to consolidating Reach Medias
operating results and revenue from the January 2006 launch of
the news/talk network. Excluding the operating results of Reach
Media, our net broadcast revenue decreased approximately 3.1%
for the year ended December 31, 2006, compared to the same
period in 2005.

Programming and technical expenses include expenses associated
with on-air talent and the management and maintenance of the
systems, tower facilities, and studios used in the creation,
distribution and broadcast of programming content on our radio
stations and on the Tom Joyner syndicated television variety
show. Programming and technical expenses also include expenses
associated with our research activities and music royalties. The
increase in programming and technical expenses resulted
primarily from our consolidation of twelve months of operating
results for Reach Media during the year ended December 31,
2006, compared to ten months of operating results for the year
ended December 31, 2005. This includes approximately
$1.4 million in additional expenses associated with the Tom
Joyner syndicated television variety show launched by Reach
Media in October 2005, which ended in September 2006. Increased
programming and technical expenses were also due to
approximately $2.1 million of additional bartered
programming expenses, approximately $1.4 million in
expenses associated with the January 2006 launch of the
news/talk network and approximately $1.5 million in
additional music royalties. Increased programming and technical
expenses were also due to higher programming compensation,
increased tower expenses and additional production costs.
Excluding the operating results of Reach Media, programming and
technical expenses increased 9.1% for the year ended
December 31, 2006, compared to the same period in 2005.

Selling, general and administrative expenses include expenses
associated with our sales departments, offices and facilities
and personnel (outside of our corporate headquarters), marketing
and promotional expenses and back office expenses. Selling,
general and administrative expenses also include expenses
related to the advertising traffic (scheduling and insertion)
functions. The increase in selling, general and administrative
expenses resulted primarily from additional marketing and
promotions spending, expenses associated with the January 2006
launch of the news/talk network, and additional compensation and
benefits. The benefits increase was due to expenses associated
with our 401(k) employee savings program, for which we began
matching employee contributions in January 2006. These increases
were partially offset by a decline in sales expenses associated
with an approximately $5.3 million non-cash charge in
September 2005 associated with terminating our national sales
representation agreements with Interep National Radio Sales,
Inc. (Interep). Excluding the 2005 one-time non-cash
termination charge and subsequent amortization, selling, general
and administrative expenses increased 7.8% for the year ended
December 31, 2006, compared to the same period in 2005.
Excluding both the one-time non-cash termination charge and
subsequent amortization and the operating results of Reach
Media, selling, general and administrative expenses increased
8.9% for the year ended December 31, 2006, compared to the
same period in 2005.

Corporate selling, general and administrative expenses consist
of expenses associated with maintaining our corporate
headquarters and facilities, including personnel. The increase
in corporate selling, general and administrative expenses
resulted primarily from our consolidation of twelve months of
operating results for Reach Media during the year ended
December 31, 2006, compared to ten months of operating
results for the same period in 2005. The increase in corporate
selling, general and administrative expenses also resulted from
approximately $1.0 million in expenses associated with our
25th Anniversary awards event held in August 2006,
approximately $0.7 million in severance expenses,
additional professional services and consulting expenses
associated with an abandoned transaction and increased travel
and transportation spending. Excluding expenses associated with
our 25th Anniversary awards event, the operating results of
Reach Media and restated adjustments associated with our past
option granting practices, corporate selling, general and
administrative expenses increased 8.4% for the year ended
December 31, 2006, compared to the same period in 2005.

Non-cash compensation consists of expenses associated with
certain officer retention bonuses and expenses associated with
restricted stock granted to certain on-air talent. The decrease
in non-cash compensation resulted from lower expenses associated
with the vesting of officer retention bonuses and reduced
restricted stock expenses due to a lower fair value for the
stock as of December 31, 2006, compared to the same period
in 2005.

Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123(R),
Share-Based Payment.
SFAS No. 123(R) eliminated accounting for

compensation has been restated to reflect additional stock-based
compensation associated with our option grant practices.

The decrease in depreciation and amortization expense for the
year ended December 31, 2006 was due primarily to the
completion of amortization of some of our trade names in early
2006. This decrease was partially offset by additional
depreciation and amortization resulting from assets and
intangibles acquired as a result of our acquisition of 51% of
the common stock of Reach Media in February 2005 and our
consolidation of twelve months of operating results for Reach
Media during the year ended December 31, 2006, compared to
ten months of operating results for the same period in 2005.

The increase in interest expense resulted from interest
obligations associated with additional borrowings to partially
fund the February 2005 redemption of our
61/2% Convertible
Preferred Remarketable Term Income Deferrable Equity Securities
(HIGH TIDES) in an amount of $309.8 million.
Additional interest obligations were also incurred from
additional borrowings throughout 2006 to fund partially the
acquisitions of radio stations
WHHL-FM
(formerly
WRDA-FM),
WMOJ-FM
(formerly
WIFE-FM),
and to fund partially the acquisition of the intellectual
property of
WMOJ-FM.
Interest expense also increased due to higher market interest
rates on the variable portion of our debt.

The effective tax rate for the year ended 2006 was a negative
1.9%, compared to 35.8% in 2005. The decrease in the provision
for income taxes for the year ended December 31, 2006 was
primarily due to a decrease in pre-tax income for 2006 compared
to 2005. These decreases were partially offset by increases to
the provision for the tax impact of adopting
SFAS No. 123(R), a current year impairment charge, an
adjustment for state tax law changes for Ohio and Texas, in
addition to valuation allowances established for charitable
contribution carryforwards and certain state net operating
losses. Excluding the effect the specific items above, our
effective tax rate as of December 31, 2006 was 46.8%,
compared to 44.6% as of December 31, 2005.

Net (loss) income applicable to common stockholders reflects net
(loss) income less dividends on our HIGH TIDES, if any. The net
loss (income) applicable to common stockholders is attributable
to a decrease of approximately $55.3 million in net income,
partially offset by a decrease in dividends of approximately
$2.8 million. Dividends on our HIGH TIDES were
approximately $2.8 million in 2005 and $0 in 2006. In
February, 2005, we redeemed all of our outstanding HIGH TIDES
using proceeds from the sale of our $200.0 million
63/8% senior
subordinated notes, borrowings of $110.0 million under our
revolving credit facility, and available cash.

Data
Station
operating income
Station operating income decreased to approximately
$170.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2006,
compared to approximately $183.9 million for the year ended
December 31, 2005, a decrease of approximately
$13.4 million, or 7.3%. This decrease was primarily due to
increases in programming and technical and selling, general and
administrative expenses described above. A reconciliation of net
income to station operating (loss) income is provided on
page 41.
Station
operating income margin
Station operating income margin decreased to 46.5% for the year
ended December 31, 2006 from 49.9% for the year ended
December 31, 2005. This decrease was primarily attributable
to an increase in station operating expenses related to the
January 2006 launch of our news/talk network, barter
programming, incremental music royalties and the implementation
of the Companys matching contribution to the employee
401(k) savings program described above.

In 2005, we recognized approximately $368.7 million in net
broadcast revenue compared to approximately $317.2 million
during 2004. These amounts are net of agency and outside sales
representative commissions, which were approximately
$48.1 million during 2005, compared to approximately
$44.0 million during 2004. The increase in net broadcast
revenue was due primarily to our consolidation of the March
through December 2005 operating results of Reach Media and, to a
lesser degree, increased demand and pricing for advertising on
some of our stations that resulted from improvement in the
general economy, increased listenership and ratings, revenue
from our new Internet initiative, and four new stations launched
in late 2004 and 2005. Excluding the March through December 2005
operating results of Reach Media, our net broadcast revenue
increased 5.4% for the year ended December 31, 2005,
compared to the same period in 2004. The revenue growth in most
of our markets, including Houston, Atlanta, Charlotte, Dallas,
Columbus, and Washington, DC, was partially offset by revenue
47
declines in Los Angeles due to soft ratings, in Baltimore due to
general market conditions, and in Philadelphia due to a station
format change.

Programming and technical expenses include expenses associated
with on-air talent and the management and maintenance of the
systems, tower facilities, and studios used in the creation,
distribution and broadcast of our programming on our radio
stations. Programming and technical expenses also include
expenses associated with our research activities and music
royalties. The increase in programming and technical expenses
during the year ended December 31, 2005 resulted primarily
from our consolidation of the March through December 2005
operating results of Reach Media, and to a lesser extent, an
increase in programming expenses relating to our on-air talent,
tower rentals, incremental costs relating to expanding our
presence on the Internet and four new stations launched in late
2004 and 2005. The increase is also driven by a 2004
non-recurring reduction of approximately $1.1 million in
music royalties expense associated with the industrys
settlement with the American Society of Composers, Authors and
Publishers. Excluding the March through December 2005 operating
results of Reach Media, programming and technical expenses
increased 5.1% for the year ended December 31, 2005,
compared to the same period in 2004.

Selling, general and administrative expenses include expenses
associated with our sales departments, offices, facilities and
personnel (outside of our corporate headquarters), marketing
expenses, back office expenses, and the advertising traffic
(scheduling and insertion) functions. The increase in selling,
general and administrative expenses resulted primarily from a
one-time non-cash charge of approximately $5.3 million
associated with terminating our national sales representation
agreements with Interep and our consolidation of the March
through December 2005 operating results of Reach Media. The
increase in national sales representation expenses also resulted
from a 2004 one-time reimbursement of approximately
$3.4 million to us from a vendor pursuant to a
performance-based agreement. Higher selling, general and
administrative expenses also resulted from more compensation
(mainly commissions and bonuses) and other selling expenses
driven by increased revenue, marketing and promotional activity,
higher event costs, and sales expenses associated with four new
stations launched in late 2004 and 2005. Excluding both the
March through December 2005 operating results of Reach Media,
the approximately $5.3 million one-time charge associated
with terminating the Interep national sales representation
agreements, and the approximately $3.4 million one-time
vendor payment, selling, general and administrative expenses
increased 10.7% for the year ended December 31, 2005,
compared to the same period in 2004.

Corporate selling, general and administrative expenses consist
of expenses associated with our corporate headquarters and
facilities, including personnel. The increase in corporate
selling, general and administrative expenses during the year
ended December 31, 2005, resulted primarily from our
consolidation of the March through December 2005 operating
results of Reach Media, increased compensation, increased
contract labor and additional professional fees. Excluding the
March through December 2005 operating results of Reach Media and
restated

The decrease in depreciation and amortization expense for the
year ended December 31, 2005 was due primarily to the
completion of amortization of some of our trade names in late
2004, and the completion of amortization of a software system in
2005, both of which were partially offset by depreciation for
our additional capital expenditures made during 2005. Excluding
the March through December 2005 operating results of Reach
Media, depreciation and amortization expense decreased 25.6% for
the year ended December 31, 2005, compared to the same
period in 2004.

balances of cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments,
and the pay-off of certain officer loans during the year ended

$285,000 in interest income associated with an income tax refund

The increase in interest expense during the year ended

associated with additional borrowings to fund partially the
February 2005 redemption of our HIGH TIDES in an amount of
$309.8 million. Additional interest obligations were also
incurred from borrowings to fund partially the February 2005
acquisition of 51% of the common stock of Reach Media. Also, in
June 2005, we entered into an $800.0 million credit
agreement and simultaneously borrowed $437.5 million to
retire our previous credit facilities.

The decrease in the provision for income taxes for the year
ended December 31, 2005 was primarily due to a decrease in
pre-tax income for 2005 compared to 2004, and the impact of a
change to Ohio state tax laws enacted on June 30, 2005. The
decrease was partially offset by our consolidation of the March
through December 2005 operating results of Reach Media.
Excluding the effect of the Ohio tax law change, our effective
tax rate as of December 31, 2005 was 44.6%, compared to
39.4% as of December 31, 2004. The effective tax rate as of
December 31, 2005 does not reflect the impact of
SFAS No. 123(R), as we did not adopt this
pronouncement until January 1, 2006.

Net income applicable to common stockholders is net income less
dividends on our HIGH TIDES. The increase in net income
applicable to common stockholders is attributable to a decrease
of approximately $10.8 million in net income, and a
decrease in dividends of approximately $17.4 million.
Dividends on our HIGH TIDES were approximately $2.8 million
in 2005 and approximately $20.1 million in 2004. In
February 2005, we redeemed all our outstanding HIGH TIDES using
proceeds from the sale of our $200.0 million
63/8% senior
subordinated notes, borrowings of $110.0 million under our
revolving credit facility, and available cash.
Other
Data
Station
operating income
Station operating income increased to approximately
$183.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2005,
compared to approximately $176.1 million for the year ended
December 31, 2004, an increase of approximately
$7.8 million, or 4.4%. This increase was primarily due to
the consolidation of the March through December 2005 operating
results of Reach Media, and increased net broadcast revenue in
Radio One markets, which more than offset higher station
operating expenses, including the one-time non-cash charge of
approximately $5.3 million for the termination of the
Interep national sales representation agreements. A
reconciliation of net income to station operating income is
provided on page 41.
Station
operating income margin
Station operating income margin decreased to 49.9% for the year
ended December 31, 2005 from 55.5% for the year ended
December 31, 2004. This decrease was primarily attributable
to consolidating the March through December 2005 operating
results of Reach Media, a business that has lower margins than
our core radio business. Contributing to the increased station
operating expenses were the 2005 one-time non-cash charge of
approximately $5.3 million for the termination of the
Interep national sales representation agreements, and the 2004
one-time vendor reimbursement to us of approximately
$3.4 million pursuant to a performance-based agreement.
50
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
Our primary source of liquidity is cash provided by operations
and, to the extent necessary, commitments available under our
amended and restated credit facilities and other debt or equity
financings.
In June 2005, we entered into a credit agreement with a
syndicate of banks (the Credit Agreement). The
agreement was amended in April 2006 to modify certain financial
covenants. The term of the Credit Agreement is seven years and
the total amount available under the Credit Agreement is
$800.0 million, consisting of a $500.0 million
revolving facility and a $300.0 million term loan facility.
Borrowings under the credit facilities are subject to compliance
with financial covenants and other provisions of the Credit
Agreement. We may use proceeds from the credit facilities for
working capital, capital expenditures made in the ordinary
course of business, our common stock repurchase program, direct
and indirect investments permitted under the Credit Agreement,
and other lawful corporate purposes. The Credit Agreement
contains affirmative and negative covenants that we must comply
with, including (a) maintaining an interest coverage ratio
of no less than 1.90 to 1.00 from January 1, 2006 to
December 31, 2007, and no less than 2.25 to 1.00 from
January 1, 2008 to December 31, 2008, and no less than
2.50 to 1.00 from January 1, 2009 and thereafter,
(b) maintaining a total leverage ratio of no greater than
7.00 to 1.00 from April 1, 2006 to December 31, 2007,
and no greater than 6.00 to 1.00 from January 1, 2008 and
thereafter, (c) limitations on liens, (d) limitations
on the sale of assets, (e) limitations on the payment of
dividends, and (f) limitations on mergers, as well as other
customary covenants. Simultaneous with entering into the Credit
Agreement, we borrowed $437.5 million under the Credit
Agreement to retire all outstanding obligations under our
previous credit agreement. We have received a waiver under the
Credit Agreement extending the due date for delivery of our
consolidated financial statements for the year ended
December 31, 2006 and the quarter ended March 31, 2007
and waiving compliance with the interest ratio covenant in the
Credit Agreement until July 13, 2007. We expect that with
this filing of this Form
10-K and the
subsequent filing of our first quarter
Form 10-Q
we will be in compliance with the requirements for delivery of
our consolidated financial statements.
As of December 31, 2006, we had approximately
$362.0 million available for borrowing. Taking into
consideration the covenants under the Credit Agreement,
approximately $31.3 million of that amount was available to
be drawn down. Both the term loan facility and the revolving
facility under the Credit Agreement bear interest, at our
option, at a rate equal to either (i) the London Interbank
Offered Rate (LIBOR) plus a spread that ranges from
0.63% to 1.50%, or (ii) the prime rate plus a spread of up
to 0.50%. The amount of the spread varies depending on our
leverage ratio. We also pay a commitment fee that varies
depending on certain financial covenants and the amount of
unused commitment, up to a maximum of 0.375% per annum on
the average balance of the revolving facility. We believe that
we are in compliance with all covenants under the amended Credit
Agreement. In connection with entering into the Credit Agreement
in June 2005, we (a) recorded approximately
$4.2 million of deferred financing costs to be amortized
over the life of the Credit Agreement, and (b) wrote-off
approximately $2.1 million of the previous credit
facilities unamortized deferred financing costs as a loss
on extinguishment of debt.
Under our Credit Agreement, we are required to protect ourselves
from interest rate fluctuations using interest rate hedge
agreements. As a result, we have entered into various fixed rate
swap agreements that require us to pay a fixed rate of interest
on the notional amount to a bank and the bank pays to us a
variable rate equal to three-month LIBOR. As of
December 31, 2006, we had four swap agreements in place for
a total notional amount of $100.0 million, and the periods
remaining on these swap agreements range in duration from 6 to
66 months. Our credit exposure under these swap agreements
is limited to the cost of replacing an agreement in the event of
non-performance by our counter-party; however, we do not
anticipate non-performance. All of the swap agreements are tied
to the three-month LIBOR, which may fluctuate significantly on a
daily basis. The valuation of each swap agreement is affected by
the change in the three-month LIBOR and the remaining term of
the agreement. Any increase in the three-month LIBOR results in
a more favorable valuation, while a decrease results in a less
favorable valuation. Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, we
are required to enter into a new fixed rate swap agreement to
replace the swap agreement that expires on June 16, 2007.
There is no assurance that we will be able to do so, or to
obtain a price as favorable as the price on the existing swap
agreement.

A total of $100.0 million is subject to fixed rate swap
agreements that became effective in June 2005. Under our fixed
rate swap agreements, we pay a fixed rate plus a spread based on
our leverage ratio, as defined in our Credit Agreement. That
spread is currently set at 1.50% and is incorporated into the
applicable interest rates set forth above. |

In February 2005, we completed the private placement of
$200.0 million
63/8%
senior subordinated notes due 2013, realizing net proceeds of
approximately $195.3 million. We recorded approximately
$4.7 million in deferred offering costs, which are being
amortized to interest expense over the life of the related notes
using the effective interest rate method. The net proceeds of
the offering, in addition to borrowings of $110.0 million
under our previous revolving credit facility, and available
cash, were primarily used to redeem our outstanding HIGH TIDES
in an amount of $309.8 million. In October 2005, the
63/8% senior
subordinated notes were exchanged for an equal amount of notes
registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
Securities Act).
In 2001, we issued $300.0 million
87/8% senior
subordinated notes due 2011. Approximately $8.2 million in
deferred offering costs are being amortized to interest expense
over the life of the notes using the effective interest rate
method.
The indentures governing our senior subordinated notes require
that we comply with certain financial covenants limiting our
ability to incur additional debt and also place restrictions on
us with respect to the sale of assets, liens, investments,
dividends, debt repayments, capital expenditures, transactions
with affiliates, consolidation and mergers, and the issuance of
equity interests, among other things.

Net cash flows from operating activities were approximately
$77.5 million and $101.6 million for the years ended
December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. Cash flows from
operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2006
declined from the prior year primarily due to the decrease in
operating income of approximately $82.9 million, coupled
with increased interest expense resulting from a change to our
capital structure described above. As a result of the 2005
redemption of all of our outstanding HIGH TIDES in an amount of
$309.8 million, we now pay interest expense on debt,
instead of dividends on our HIGH TIDES. The additional interest
expense from the change in our capital structure is reflected in
operating activities, whereas the dividends on our HIGH TIDES
were reflected in financing activities.

Net cash flows used in investing activities were approximately
$46.2 million and $28.3 million for the years ended
December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. During the year
ended December 31, 2006, we acquired the assets of
WHHL-FM
(formerly
WRDA-FM), a
radio station located in the St. Louis metropolitan area
for approximately $20.0 million and the assets of
WIFE-FM, a
radio station located in the Cincinnati metropolitan area for
approximately $18.3 million. In connection with
WIFE-FM
acquisition, we also acquired the intellectual property of radio
station
WMOJ-FM,
also in the Cincinnati metropolitan area, for approximately
$5.0 million in cash and changed
WIFE-FMs
call sign to
WMOJ-FM.
Additionally, we funded approximately $14.6 million of our
investment commitment in TV One. In December 2006, we sold the
assets of
WILD-FM, a
radio station located in the Boston metropolitan area for
approximately $30.0 million. During the year ended
December 31, 2005, we acquired 51% of the common stock of
Reach Media for approximately $55.8 million in a
combination of approximately $30.4 million of cash and
1,809,648 shares of our Class D common stock, and we
sold short-term marketable securities for approximately
$10.0 million. Capital expenditures were approximately
$14.3 million and $13.8 million for the year ended
December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively.
Net cash flows used in financing activities were approximately
$18.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2006,
compared to net cash flows used in financing activities of
approximately $64.6 million for the year ended
December 31, 2005. During the year ended December 31,
2006, we borrowed $33.0 million from our credit facility to
fund partially the May and September 2006 acquisitions of
WHHL-FM
(formerly
WRDA-FM) and
WMOJ-FM
(formerly
WIFE-FM) and
paid approximately $2.9 million in dividends to Reach
Medias minority shareholders. In 2006, we made a repayment
on our revolving credit facility of $48.0 million. During
the year ended December 31, 2005, we made a principal
payment of approximately $17.5 million on our previous term
loan, paid approximately $437.5 million of amounts
outstanding under our previous credit facilities with proceeds
from our new revolving facility, borrowed $15.0 million
from our new revolving facility in connection with our stock
repurchase program, repurchased shares of Class A and
Class D common stock for approximately $77.7 million
and realized net proceeds of approximately $195.3 million
from the private placement of $200.0 million of our
63/8% senior
subordinated notes, borrowed approximately $135.0 million
under our previous revolving credit facility, redeemed our
outstanding HIGH TIDES in an amount of $309.8 million,
received approximately $5.6 million from our stock
subscriptions receivable and paid approximately
$7.0 million preferred dividends on our HIGH TIDES.
From time to time we consider opportunities to acquire
additional radio stations, primarily in the top
60 African-American
markets, and to make strategic investments and divestitures. In
May and September 2006, we completed the acquisition of
WHHL-FM
(formerly
WRDA-FM) and
WMOJ-FM
(formerly
WIFE-FM), as
described above. In March 2007, we entered into an agreement to
acquire the assets of
WDBZ-AM, a
radio station located in the Cincinnati metropolitan area, for
approximately $2.6 million in seller financing. We have
been operating
WDBZ-AM
pursuant to a local marketing agreement since August 2001. In
April 2007, we entered into an agreement to acquire the assets
of WPRS-FM
(formerly
WXGG-FM), a
radio station located in the Washington DC metropolitan area,
for approximately $38.0 million in cash, and a local
marketing agreement with Bonneville International Corporation to
operate the radio station pending the completion of the
acquisition. Subject to the necessary regulatory approvals, we
expect to complete the acquisitions in the second half of 2007
and the first half of 2008, respectively. Other than our
agreement with an affiliate of Comcast Corporation, DIRECTV and
other investors to fund TV One (the balance of our
commitment was approximately $22.4 million as of
December 31, 2006), we have no other definitive agreements
to make acquisitions of radio stations or to make strategic
investments. In the fourth quarter of 2006, we completed the
sale of the assets of radio station
WILD-FM,
located in the Boston metropolitan area for approximately
$30.0 million in cash. We anticipate that any future
acquisitions or strategic investments will be financed through
funds generated from operations, cash on hand, equity
financings, permitted debt financings, debt financings through
unrestricted subsidiaries or a combination of these sources.
However, there can be no assurance that financing from any of
these sources, if available, will be available on favorable
terms.
As of December 31, 2006, we had two standby letters of
credit in the amount of $417,000 in connection with our annual
insurance policy renewals. To date, there has been no activity
on the standby letters of credit.
Our ability to meet our debt service obligations and reduce our
total debt, our ability to refinance the
87/8% senior
subordinated notes at or prior to their scheduled maturity date
in 2011, and our ability to refinance the
63/8%
senior subordinated notes at or prior to their scheduled
maturity date in 2013 will depend upon our future
53
performance which, in turn, will be subject to general economic
conditions and to financial, business and other factors,
including factors beyond our control. In the next twelve months,
our principal liquidity requirements will be for working
capital, continued business development, strategic investment
opportunities and for general corporate purposes, including
capital expenditures.
We believe that, based on current levels of operations and
anticipated internal growth, for the foreseeable future, cash
flow from operations together with other available sources of
funds will be adequate to make required payments of interest on
our indebtedness, to fulfill our commitment to fund TV One,
to fund acquisitions, to fund anticipated capital expenditures
and working capital requirements and to enable us to comply with
the terms of our debt agreements as amended by our existing
waiver. However, in order to finance future acquisitions or
investments, if any, we may require additional financing and
there can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain such
financing on terms acceptable to us.
Credit
Rating Agencies
On a continuing basis, credit rating agencies such as
Moodys Investor Services and Standard &
Poors evaluate our debt. As a result of their reviews, our
credit rating could change. We believe that any significant
downgrade in our credit rating could adversely impact our future
liquidity. The effect of a change in our credit rating may limit
or eliminate our ability to obtain debt financing, or include,
among other things, interest rate changes under any future
credit facilities, notes or other types of debt.
Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2006, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin
(SAB) No. 108, Considering the Effects
of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in
Current Year Financial Statement. SAB 108 was
issued to provide interpretive guidance on how the effects of
the carryover or reversal of prior year misstatements should be
considered in quantifying a current year misstatement. The
provisions of SAB 108 are effective for the Company for its
December 2006 year-end. The adoption of SAB 108 did
not have a material impact on the Companys consolidated
financial statements.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157,
Fair Value Measurements. SFAS 157
defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair
value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands
disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 becomes
effective for the Company on January 1, 2008. Upon
adoption, the provisions of SFAS 157 are to be applied
prospectively with limited exceptions. The adoption of
SFAS 157 is not expected to have a material impact on the
Companys consolidated financial statements.
In June 2006, the FASB issued Financial Accounting Standards
Board interpretation (FIN) No. 48,
Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes
Interpretation of SFAS No. 109.
FIN No. 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and
measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition
and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken
in a tax return. FIN No. 48 requires that the Company
recognize the impact of a tax position in the financial
statements, if that position is more likely than not of being
sustained on audit, based on the technical merits of the
position. FIN No. 48 also provides guidance on
de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties,
accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. The
provisions of FIN No. 48 are effective beginning
January 1, 2007, with the cumulative effect of the change
in accounting principle recorded as an adjustment to opening
retained earnings. The Company expects that the FIN 48
liability, inclusive of previous tax contingencies, is
approximately $4.9 million, which will be reflected in the
consolidated balance sheet as a long-term tax liability and a
reduction in retained earnings as of January 1, 2007. The
tax impact of implementing FIN 48 will be a charge of
approximately $1.1 million. The Company will review its
estimates on a quarterly basis and any change in its FIN 48
liabilities will result in an adjustment to its income tax
expense in the consolidated statement of operations in each
period measured. The Company anticipates that there will be no
immediate impact on the Companys cash flows.
Critical
Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our accounting policies are described in Note 1
Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
of the consolidated financial statements. We prepare our
consolidated financial statements in conformity
54
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States, which require us to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues
and expenses during the year. Actual results could differ from
those estimates. We consider the following policies and
estimates to be most critical in understanding the judgments
involved in preparing our financial statements and the
uncertainties that could affect our results of operations,
financial condition and cash flows.
Stock-Based
Compensation
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance
with SFAS No. 123(R). Under the provisions of
SFAS No. 123(R), stock-based compensation cost is
estimated at the grant date based on the awards fair value
as calculated by the Black-Scholes (BSM) valuation
option-pricing model and is recognized as expense ratably over
the requisite service period. The BSM model requires various
highly judgmental assumptions including volatility, forfeiture
rates, and expected option life. If any of the assumptions used
in the BSM model change significantly, stock-based compensation
expense may differ materially in the future from that recorded
in the current period.
In connection with the Companys restatement of its
consolidated financial statements, the Company has applied
judgment in choosing whether to revise measurement dates for
prior option grants. Information regarding the restatement,
including additional stock-based compensation expense where
revised measurement dates had been selected for certain grants,
is set forth in the Explanatory Note immediately preceding
Part I, Item I and in Note 2
Restatement of Consolidated Financial Statements in Notes
to Consolidated Financial Statements of this
Form 10-K.
Goodwill
and Radio Broadcasting Licenses
Goodwill consists of the excess of the purchase price over the
fair value of tangible and identifiable intangible net assets
acquired in business combinations. Radio broadcasting licenses
acquired in business combinations are valued using a discounted
cash flow analysis. Commencing January 1, 2002, in
accordance with SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and
Other Intangible Assets, goodwill and radio
broadcasting licenses are not amortized, but are tested annually
for impairment at the reporting unit level. Impairment of
goodwill is the condition that exists when the carrying amount
of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value, determined by
deducting the estimated fair value of all tangible and
identifiable intangible net assets of the reporting unit from
the estimated fair value of the reporting unit. If the recorded
value of goodwill exceeds its implied value, an impairment
charge for goodwill is recorded for the excess. Impairment of
radio broadcasting licenses is the condition that exists when
the carrying amount of the radio broadcasting license exceeds
its implied fair value, calculated as the discounted cash flow
value of its projected income stream. If the recorded value of
the radio broadcasting license exceeds its implied value, an
impairment charge for the radio broadcasting license is recorded
for the excess. The Company conducts its annual test for
impairment during the fourth quarter of every year. The Company
determined that the value of its goodwill and radio broadcasting
licenses were impaired during 2006 in its Los Angeles and
Louisville markets and, accordingly, an impairment charge of
approximately $63.3 million was recognized. See also
Notes 1 and 6 Organization and Summary of
Significant Accounting Policies and Goodwill, Radio Broadcasting
Licenses and Other Intangible Assets.
Impairment
of Long-Lived Assets Excluding Goodwill and Radio Broadcasting
Licenses
Long-lived assets, excluding goodwill and radio broadcasting
licenses, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes
in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset
or group of assets may not be fully recoverable. These events or
changes in circumstances may include a significant deterioration
of operating results, changes in business plans, or changes in
anticipated future cash flows. If an impairment indicator is
present, we will evaluate recoverability by a comparison of the
carrying amount of the assets to future undiscounted net cash
flows expected to be generated by the assets. Assets are grouped
at the lowest level for which there is identifiable cash flows
that are largely independent of the cash flows generated by
other asset groups. If the assets are impaired, the impairment
is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds
the fair value of the assets
55
determined by estimates of discounted cash flows. The discount
rate used in any estimate of discounted cash flows would be the
rate required for a similar investment of like risk.
Allowance
for Doubtful Accounts
We must make estimates of the uncollectability of our accounts
receivable. We specifically review historical write-off activity
by market, large customer concentrations, customer credit
worthiness and changes in our customer payment terms when
evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts.
If circumstances change, such as higher than expected defaults
or an unexpected material adverse change in an agencys
ability to meet its financial obligation to us, our estimates of
the recoverability of amounts due to us could change by a
material amount.
Revenue
Recognition
We recognize revenue for broadcast advertising when the
commercial is broadcast and we report revenue net of agency and
outside sales representative commissions in accordance with
SAB No. 104, Topic 13, Revenue
Recognition, Revised and Updated. When applicable,
agency and outside sales representative commissions are
calculated based on a stated percentage applied to gross
billing. Generally, clients remit the gross billing amount to
the agency or outside sales representative, and the agency or
outside sales representative remits the gross billing, less
their commission, to us.
Equity
Accounting
We account for our investment in TV One under the equity method
of accounting in accordance with APB Opinion No. 18,
The Equity Method of Accounting for Investments in
Common Stock, and other related interpretations. We
have recorded our investment at cost and have adjusted the
carrying amount of the investment to recognize the change in
Radio Ones claim on the net assets of TV One resulting
from losses of TV One as well as other capital transactions of
TV One using a hypothetical liquidation at book value approach.
We will review the realizability of the investment if conditions
are present or events occur to suggest that an impairment of the
investment may exist. We have determined that although TV One is
a variable interest entity (as defined by
FIN No. 46(R), Consolidation of Variable
Interest Entities,) the Company is not the primary
beneficiary of TV One. See Note 7 Investment
in Affiliated Company for further discussion.
Contingencies
and Litigation
We regularly evaluate our exposure relating to any contingencies
or litigation and record a liability when available information
indicates that a liability is probable and estimable. We also
disclose significant matters that are reasonably possible to
result in a loss, or are probable but for which an estimate of
the liability is not currently available.
Estimate
of Effective Tax Rates and Realizability of Deferred Tax
Balance
We evaluate our effective tax rates regularly and adjust rates
when appropriate based on currently available information
relative to statutory rates, apportionment factors and the
applicable taxable income in the jurisdictions in which we
operate, among other factors. Tax contingencies are also
recorded to address potential exposures involving tax positions
we have taken that could be challenged by taxing authorities. In
addition, we consider the appropriateness of recording a
valuation allowance against deferred tax assets to offset future
tax benefits that may not be realized. In determining if a
valuation allowance is appropriate, we consider whether it is
more likely than not that all or some portion of our deferred
tax assets will not be realized, based in part upon
managements judgments regarding future events. These
potential exposures result from the varying application of
statutes, rules, regulations and interpretations. We believe our
estimates of tax contingencies and valuation allowances are
critical accounting estimates as they contain assumptions based
on past experiences and judgments about potential actions by
taxing jurisdictions. It is reasonably likely that the ultimate
resolution of these matters may be greater or less than the
amount that we have currently accrued. Our estimate of our
effective tax rates has ranged from a negative 1.9% to 46.1%
throughout 2006. This includes the current year 26.3%
unfavorable impact for certain state tax law rate
56
changes and valuation allowances for charitable contributions
and certain state net operating losses. The effect of a 1.0%
increase in our estimated tax rates as of December 31, 2006
would result in an increase in income tax expense of $2,700,
which is not significantly different from the approximately
$273,000 income tax provision recorded for the year ended
December 31, 2006. The 1.0% increase in income tax expense
would result in an increase in net loss of $2,700, which is not
significantly different from the approximately $6.7 million
net loss recorded for the year ended December 31, 2006, and
the net loss per share, both basic and diluted, would not be
impacted.
The Company believes its net operating losses will be utilized
within the carryforward period based on managements
estimate of the Companys projected taxable income and its
ability to employ various tax planning strategies, if needed. To
the extent that actual future financial results differ from
managements estimates, the Company may be required to
record a valuation allowance against this asset.
Impact of
Inflation
We believe that inflation has not had a material impact on our
results of operations for each of our years in the three-year
period ended December 31, 2006. However, there can be no
assurance that future inflation would not have an adverse impact
on our operating results and financial condition.
Seasonality
Several factors may adversely affect a radio broadcasting
companys performance in any given period. In the radio
broadcasting industry, seasonal revenue fluctuations are common
and are due primarily to variations in advertising expenditures
by local and national advertisers. Typically, revenues are
lowest in the first calendar quarter of the year.
Capital
and Commercial Commitments
Long-term
debt
The total amount available under our existing Credit Agreement
with a syndicate of banks is $800.0 million, consisting of
a $500.0 million revolving facility and a
$300.0 million term loan facility. As of December 31,
2006, we had approximately $437.5 million in debt
outstanding under the Credit Agreement. We also have outstanding
$200.0 million
63/8% senior
subordinated notes due 2013 and $300.0 million
87/8% senior
subordinated notes due 2011. See Liquidity and Capital
Resources.
Lease
obligations
We have non-cancelable operating leases for office space, studio
space, broadcast towers and transmitter facilities and
non-cancelable capital leases for equipment that expire over the
next 19 years.
Operating
Contracts and Agreements
We have other operating contracts and agreements including
employment contracts, on-air talent contracts, severance
obligations, retention bonuses, consulting agreements, equipment
rental agreements, programming related agreements, and other
general operating agreements that expire over the next eight
years.

Reflected in the obligations above, as of December 31,
2006, we had four swap agreements in place for a total notional
amount of $100.0 million. The periods remaining on the swap
agreements range in duration from 6 to 66 months. If we
terminate our interest swap agreements before they expire, we
will be required to pay early termination fees. Our credit
exposure under these agreements is limited to the cost of
replacing an agreement in the event of non-performance by our
counter-party; however, we do not anticipate non-performance.
See Note 9 Derivative Instruments in the
accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements for
a detailed discussion of our derivative instruments.
Off-Balance
Sheet Arrangements
We did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as of
December 31, 2006 other than as follows:
We utilize letters of credit in connection with our annual
insurance policy renewals. As of December 31, 2006, we had
two standby letters of credit in the amounts of $147,000 and
$270,000, in connection with our annual insurance policy
renewals. To date, there has been no activity on the standby
letters of credit.
As of December 31, 2006, we had four interest rate swap
agreements in place for a total notional amount of
$100.0 million to hedge our variable rate debt, ranging in
duration from six to 66 months. See Note 9
Derivative Instruments in the accompanying notes to the
consolidated financial statements for a detailed discussion of
our derivative instruments.
58
We do not have any relationships with unconsolidated entities or
financial partnerships, such as structured finance or special
purpose entities established for the purpose of facilitating
off-balance sheet financial arrangements or other contractually
narrow or limited purposes, at December 31, 2006.
Accordingly, we are not materially exposed to any financing,
liquidity, market or credit risk that could arise if we had
engaged in such relationships.
ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE
AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK
Both the term loan facility and the revolving facility under the
Credit Agreement bear interest, at our option, at a rate equal
to either LIBOR plus a spread that ranges from 0.63% to 1.50%,
or the prime rate plus a spread of up to 0.50%, depending on our
leverage ratio. We also pay a commitment fee that varies
depending on certain financial covenants and the amount of
unused commitment, up to a maximum of 0.375% per annum on
the average balance of the revolving facility. We are exposed to
interest rate volatility with respect to this variable rate
debt. If the borrowing rates under LIBOR were to increase 1.0%
above the current rates at December 31, 2006, our interest
expense on the revolving credit facility would increase
approximately $4.4 million on an annual basis, including
any interest expense associated with the use of derivative rate
hedging instruments as described above.
Under the terms of our Credit Agreement, we have entered into
fixed rate swap agreements to mitigate our exposure to higher
floating interest rates. These swap agreements require that we
pay a fixed rate of interest on the notional amount to a bank
and that the bank pays to us a variable rate equal to
three-month LIBOR. As of Mary 15, 2007, we have four swap
agreements in place for a total notional amount of
$100.0 million, and the periods remaining on these swap
agreements range in duration from six to 66 months. All of
the swap agreements are tied to the three-month LIBOR, which may
fluctuate significantly on a daily basis. The valuation of each
of these swap agreements is affected by the change in the
three-month LIBOR and the remaining term of the agreement. Any
increase in the three-month LIBOR results in a more favorable
valuation, while a decrease in the three-month LIBOR results in
a less favorable valuation. In addition, we are exposed to
market risk in entering into a new swap agreement to replace the
existing swap agreement that expires in June 2007.
We estimated the net fair value of these instruments as of
December 31, 2006 to be a receivable of approximately
$1.8 million. The fair value of the interest rate swap
agreements is an estimate of the net amount that we would have
received on December 31, 2006 if the agreements were
transferred to other parties or cancelled by us. The fair value
is estimated by obtaining quotations from the financial
institutions which are parties to our swap agreement contracts.
The determination of the estimated fair value of our fixed-rate
debt is subject to the effects of interest rate risk. The
estimated fair value of our
63/8% senior
subordinated notes due 2013 and
87/8% senior
subordinated notes due 2011 at December 31, 2006 were
$187.0 and $309.8 million, respectively. The carrying
amounts were $200.0 million and $300.0 million,
respectively. The estimated fair value of our
63/8% senior
subordinated notes due 2013 and
87/8%
senior subordinated notes due 2011 at December 31, 2005
were $194.5 and $316.9 million, respectively. The carrying
amounts were $200.0 million and $300.0 million,
respectively.
The effect of a hypothetical one percentage point decrease in
expected current interest rate yield would be to increase the
estimated fair value of our
63/8% senior
subordinated notes due 2013 from $187.0 million to
$197.8 million at December 31, 2006. The effect of a
hypothetical one percentage point decrease in expected current
interest rate yield would be to increase the estimated fair
value of our
87/8% senior
subordinated notes due 2011 from $309.8 million to
$318.1 million at December 31, 2006.

CONTROLS
AND PROCEDURES
|
Evaluation
of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We have carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and
with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer
(CEO) and CFO, of the effectiveness of the design
and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as
defined in
Rule 13a-15(e)
of the Exchange Act, as of December 31, 2006. Based on this
evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that, as of such date, our
disclosure controls and procedures were effective. Disclosure
controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed
to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our
reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated
and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO,
to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.
In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and
procedures, our management recognizes that any controls and
procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can only
provide reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control
objectives. Management applied its judgment in evaluating the
cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide a
reasonable level of assurance of reaching our desired disclosure
control objectives. Our management, including our CEO and CFO,
has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are
effective in reaching that level of reasonable assurance.
Assessment
of Prior Period Controls Over Financial Reporting
As a result of the voluntary review and full investigation of
past stock option granting practices and related financial
accounting discussed elsewhere in this
Form 10-K
(see Explanatory Note and Note 2 to the
Consolidated Financial Statements), certain material
weaknesses relating to our stock option grant activities were
identified during the years prior to 2006. The need to adjust
the measurement dates of certain stock option grants, for
financial accounting purposes, to meet the measurement date
criteria of APB Opinion No. 25, is attributed to a number
of different circumstances, including the following:
|
|
|
|
|
no contemporaneous documentation of approval;
|
|
|
|
selection of grant dates prior to approval;
|
|
|
|
lack of finality of recipient lists on company-wide grants;
|
|
|
|
improper measurement date selections; and
|
|
|
|
incorrect measurement dates for new hire and other grants.
|
Prior to 2004, we did not have sufficient control practices
regarding stock option grants and related financial accounting.
In connection with our implementation of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act
of 2002 (SOX) in 2004, we documented accounting
policies, processes and procedures and assessed the design and
operating effectiveness of internal control over financial
reporting, including the granting of stock options. In addition,
in 2004 we implemented a more robust database tracking tool and
subsequently made staffing changes and additions. Although the
material accounting adjustments in the restatement relate to
stock option grants prior to our implementation of the SOX
controls and other improvements relating to stock option
granting practices, there continued to be deficiencies in our
documentation and internal controls around the determination of
proper measurement dates for certain of our stock option awards
granted prior to 2006.
Remediation
Management made a decision not to issue an annual stock option
grant for the year ended December 31, 2006 or any option
grants to directors or executive officers in 2006. The
compensation committee and management have assessed the results
disclosed by the review and investigation of our historical
stock option grant practices and are taking appropriate steps to
improve our controls in that area. The compensation committee
has recently adopted a compensation committee charter and a new
policy for granting stock options and restricted stock that
establishes pre-determined fixed grant dates for new hire and
director awards, provides for approval of the recipients and
award
60
amounts by the compensation committee for all other grants,
precludes selection of a grant date that precedes the approval,
and provides that our CFO will confirm the grant date closing
price as the stock option exercise price. The policy also
provides that the compensation committee will receive periodic
reports on our equity award process and that stock option grants
cannot be approved by unanimous written consent. Management is
establishing new procedures that set out detailed practices
regarding documentation, establishment of the measurement date
and exercise price of options, and timely communication to the
financial reporting unit. We have added a new benefits manager
and are in the process of scheduling and planning additional
education for personnel involved with the stock option granting
process. We believe that we have effectively remediated the past
material weaknesses in our internal control over financial
reporting related to our stock option granting practices and the
related accounting. We are strengthening our processes to test
the effectiveness of these procedures and will take other
control measures, as needed.
Managements
Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining
adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined
in Exchange Act
Rule 13a-15(f).
Under the supervision and with the participation of our
management, including our CEO and CFO, we conducted an
evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over
financial reporting. The framework used in carrying our
evaluation was the Internal Control Integrated
Framework published by the Committee of Sponsoring
Organizations (COSO) of the Treadway Commission. In evaluating
our information technology controls, we also used the framework
contained in the Control Objectives for Information and related
Technology
(COBIT®),
which was developed by the Information Systems Audit and Control
Associations (ISACA) IT Governance Institute, as a
complement to the COSO internal control framework. Based on our
evaluation under these frameworks, our management concluded that
we maintained effective internal control over financial
reporting as of December 31, 2006.
Our managements assessment of the effectiveness of our
internal control over financial reporting as of
December 31, 2006 has been audited by Ernst &
Young LLP, our independent registered public accounting firm, as
stated in its audit report which is included herein.
Report of
Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm on Internal
Control Over Financial Reporting
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Radio One, Inc.:
We have audited managements assessment, included in the
accompanying Management Report on Internal Control Over
Financial Reporting, that Radio One, Inc. maintained effective
internal control over financial reporting as of
December 31, 2006, based on criteria established in
Internal Control Integrated Framework issued
by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway
Commission (the COSO criteria). Radio One, Inc.s
management is responsible for maintaining effective internal
control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the
effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on managements
assessment and an opinion on the effectiveness of the
companys internal control over financial reporting based
on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the
Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those
standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control
over financial reporting was maintained in all material
respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of
internal control over financial reporting, evaluating
managements assessment, testing and evaluating the design
and operating effectiveness of internal control, and performing
such other procedures as we considered necessary in the
circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable
basis for our opinion.
A companys internal control over financial reporting is a
process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the
reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of
financial statements for external purposes in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles. A companys
internal control over financial reporting includes those
policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance
of records that, in reasonable detail,
61
accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions
of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable
assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit
preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and
expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance
with authorizations of management and directors of the company;
and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention
or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or
disposition of the companys assets that could have a
material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over
financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.
Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future
periods are subject to the risk that controls may become
inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree
of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
In our opinion, managements assessment that Radio One,
Inc. maintained effective internal control over financial
reporting as of December 31, 2006, is fairly stated, in all
material respects, based on the COSO criteria. Also, in our
opinion, Radio One, Inc. maintained, in all material respects,
effective internal control over financial reporting as of
December 31, 2006, based on the COSO criteria.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the
Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the
consolidated balance sheets of Radio One, Inc. as of
December 31, 2006 and 2005, and the related consolidated
statements of operations, changes in stockholders equity
and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended
December 31, 2006, and our report dated June 11, 2007
expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

Changes
in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There was no change in our internal control over financial
reporting during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2006, that
has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially
affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Report of
Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Radio One, Inc.:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of
Radio One, Inc. and subsidiaries (the Company) as of
December 31, 2006 and 2005 and the related consolidated
statements of operations, changes in stockholders equity
and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended
December 31, 2006. Our audits also included the financial
statement schedule listed in the Index on
page S-1.
These financial statements and schedule are the responsibility
of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements and schedule
based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the
Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those
standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are
free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated
financial position of Radio One, Inc. and subsidiaries at
December 31, 2006 and 2005 and the consolidated results of
their operations and their cash flows for each of the three
years in the period ended December 31, 2006, in conformity
with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Also,
in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when
considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken
as a whole, presents fairly in all material respects the
information set forth therein.
As discussed in Note 2, Restatement of Consolidated
Financial Statements, the Company has restated previously
issued financial statements as of December 31, 2005 and for
the two years in the period ended December 31, 2005 to
correct for stock-based compensation and a state tax matter.
As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial
statements, effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted
the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the
Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the
effectiveness of Radio One, Inc.s internal control over
financial reporting as of December 31, 2006, based on
criteria established in Internal Control
Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring
Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated
June 11, 2007 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004

|
ORGANIZATION
AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
|
|
|
(a)
|
Organization
and Business
|
Radio One, Inc. (a Delaware corporation referred to as
Radio One) and subsidiaries (collectively the
Company) were organized to acquire, operate and
maintain radio broadcasting stations and other media properties.
The Company owns
and/or
operates 71 radio stations in 22 markets throughout the United
States. In January 2004 together with an affiliate of Comcast
Corporation and other investors, we launched TV One, LLC
(TV One), an entity formed to operate a cable
television network featuring lifestyle, entertainment, and
news-related programming targeted primarily towards
African-American
viewers. In February 2005, the Company acquired 51% of the
common stock of Reach Media, Inc. (Reach Media) for
approximately $55.8 million in a combination of
approximately $30.4 million of cash and
1,809,648 shares of the Companys Class D common
stock. Reach Media operates the nationally syndicated Tom Joyner
Morning Show and related businesses. In January 2006, through a
joint venture with Reach Media, we launched a new nationally
syndicated
African-American
news/talk radio network. In December 2006, the Company acquired
certain assets of Giant Magazine, LLC (Giant
Magazine) for $367,000 in cash, including closing costs.
Giant Magazine publishes an urban-themed lifestyle and
entertainment magazine.
To maintain
and/or
improve its competitive position, the Company has made and may
continue to make significant acquisitions of and investments in
radio stations and other media properties, which may require it
to incur additional debt.
|
|
(b)
|
Basis
of Presentation
|
The consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States, and require management to make certain estimates and
assumptions. 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. They may also affect the reported amounts
of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual
results could differ from those estimates upon subsequent
resolution of identified matters.
Certain reclassifications associated with accounting for
discontinued operations have been made to prior year balances to
conform to the current year presentation. There was no effect on
any other previously reported statement of operations, balance
sheet or cash flow amounts.
|
|
(c)
|
Principles
of Consolidation
|
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
Radio One and subsidiaries in which Radio One has a controlling
interest. In February 2005, the Company acquired a controlling
interest in Reach Media and began consolidating Reach Media for
financial reporting purposes. All significant intercompany
accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Minority interests have been recognized where a controlling
interest exists, but the Company owns less than 100%. The equity
method of accounting is used for investments in affiliates over
which Radio One has significant influence (ownership between 20%
and 50%), but does not have effective control. Investments in
affiliates in which Radio One cannot exercise significant
influence (ownership interest less than 20%) are accounted for
using the cost method.
The Company accounts for its investment in TV One under the
equity method of accounting in accordance with Accounting
Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 18,
The Equity Method of Accounting for Investments in
Common Stock and other related interpretations. The
Company has recorded its investment at cost and has adjusted the
carrying amount of the investment to recognize the change in
Radio Ones claim on the net assets of TV One resulting
from losses of TV One as well as other capital transactions of
TV One using a hypothetical liquidation at book value approach.
The Company will review the realizability of the investment if
conditions are present or
F-7
RADIO
ONE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Continued)
events occur to suggest that an impairment of the investment may
exist. The Company has determined that, although TV One is a
variable interest entity (as defined by Financial Accounting
Standards Board Interpretation (FIN) No. 46(R),
Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities,
the Company is not the primary beneficiary of TV One. See
Note 7 Investment in Affiliated Company
for further discussion.
|
|
(d)
|
Cash
and Cash Equivalents
|
Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash, repurchase agreements
and money market accounts at various commercial banks. All cash
equivalents have original maturities of 90 days or less.
For cash and cash equivalents, cost approximates market value.
|
|
(e)
|
Trade
Accounts Receivable
|
Trade accounts receivable is recorded at the invoiced amount.
The allowance for doubtful accounts is the Companys
estimate of the amount of probable losses in the Companys
existing accounts receivable. The Company determines the
allowance based on the aging of the receivables, the impact of
economic conditions on the advertisers ability to pay and
other factors.
|
|
(f)
|
Goodwill,
Radio Broadcasting Licenses and Other Intangible
Assets
|
Goodwill consists of the excess of the purchase price over the
fair value of tangible and identifiable intangible net assets
acquired in business combinations. Radio broadcasting licenses
acquired in business combinations are valued using a discounted
cash flow analysis. In accordance with SFAS No. 142,
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,
goodwill and radio broadcasting licenses are not amortized,
but are tested annually for impairment at the reporting unit
level and unit of accounting level, respectively. Impairment of
goodwill is the condition that exists when the carrying amount
of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value. The implied fair
value of goodwill is the amount determined by deducting the
estimated fair value of all tangible and identifiable intangible
net assets of the reporting unit from the estimated fair value
of the reporting unit. If the recorded value of goodwill exceeds
its implied value, an impairment charge for goodwill is recorded
for the excess. Impairment of radio broadcasting licenses is the
condition that exists when the carrying amount of the radio
broadcasting license exceeds its implied fair value. The implied
fair value of a radio broadcasting license is the discounted
cash flow value of its projected income stream. If the recorded
value of the radio broadcasting license exceeds its implied
value, an impairment charge for the radio broadcasting license
is recorded for the excess. The Company performs an impairment
test as of October 1 of each year, or when other conditions
suggest an impairment may have occurred. The Company recognized
an approximate $63.3 million impairment charge to its
goodwill and radio broadcast licenses in 2006 for its Los
Angeles and Louisville markets. During 2005 and 2004, the
Company determined that its goodwill, radio broadcasting
licenses and other intangible assets were not impaired and
accordingly no impairment charge was recognized during these
periods. See also Note 6 Goodwill, Radio
Broadcasting Licenses and Other Intangible Assets.
|
|
(g)
|
Impairment
of Long-Lived Assets, Excluding Goodwill and Radio Broadcasting
Licenses
|
The Company accounts for the impairment of long-lived assets,
excluding goodwill and radio broadcasting licenses, in
accordance with SFAS No. 144, Accounting for
the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.
Long-lived assets, excluding goodwill and radio broadcasting
licenses, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes
in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset
or group of assets may not be fully recoverable. These events or
changes in circumstances may include a significant deterioration
in operating results, changes in business plans, or changes in
anticipated future cash flows. If an impairment indicator is
present, the Company evaluates recoverability by a comparison of
the carrying amount of the assets to future undiscounted net
cash flows expected to be generated by the assets. Assets are
grouped at the lowest levels for which there are identifiable
cash flows that are largely independent of the cash flows
generated by other asset groups. If the assets
F-8
RADIO
ONE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Continued)
are impaired, the impairment recognized is measured by the
amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair value of
the assets. Fair value is generally determined by estimates of
discounted future cash flows. The discount rate used in any
estimate of discounted cash flows would be the rate of return
for a similar investment of like risk. The Company determined
that its long-lived assets, excluding goodwill and radio
broadcast licenses were not impaired during 2006, 2005 and 2004
and, accordingly, no impairment charge was recognized related to
these assets.

Instruments

Financial instruments as of December 31, 2006 and 2005
consisted of cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts
receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, long-term debt
and stock subscriptions receivable. The carrying amounts
approximated fair value for each of these financial instruments
as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, except for the
Companys outstanding senior subordinated notes. The
87/8% senior
subordinated notes had a fair value of approximately
$309.8 million and $316.9 million as of
December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The
63/8% senior
subordinated notes had a fair value of approximately
$187.0 million and $194.5 million as of
December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The fair value
was determined based on the fair market value of similar
instruments.

Derivative
Financial Instruments
|
The Company recognizes all derivative financial instruments in
accordance with SFAS No. 133, Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. The
derivative instruments are recorded on the balance sheet at fair
value. The accounting for changes in derivative fair value
depends on the classification of the derivative as a hedging
instrument. Derivative value changes are recorded in income for
any contracts not classified as qualifying cash flow hedges. For
derivatives classified as qualifying cash flow hedges, the
effective portion of the derivative value change must be
recorded through other comprehensive income, a component of
stockholders equity, net of tax. See
Note 9 Derivative Instruments for
further discussion.
The Company recognizes revenue for broadcast advertising when
the commercial is broadcast and is reported, net of agency and
outside sales representative commissions, in accordance with
Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 104,
Topic 13, Revenue Recognition, Revised and
Updated. Agency and outside sales representative
commissions are calculated based on a stated percentage applied
to gross billing. Generally, clients remit the gross billing
amount to the agency or outside sales representative, and the
agency or outside sales representative remits the gross billing,
less their commission, to the Company. Agency and outside sales
representative commissions were approximately $44.5 million
and $47.0 million during the years ended December 31,
2006 and 2005, respectively.
The Company provides broadcast advertising time in exchange for
programming content and certain services. In accordance with
guidance provided by SFAS No. 63, Financial
Reporting by Broadcasters, and SFAS No. 153,
Exchanges of Non-Monetary
Assets an amendment of APB No. 29,
AICPA Statement of Position-75-5, Accounting Practices
in the Broadcasting Industry, the terms of these
exchanges generally permit the Company to preempt such broadcast
time in favor of advertisers who purchase time in exchange for
cash. The Company includes the value of such exchanges in both
broadcasting net revenue and station operating expenses. The
valuation of barter time is based upon the fair value of the
network advertising time provided for the programming content
and services received. For the years ended December 31,
2006 and 2005, barter transaction revenues were reflected in net
broadcast revenue of approximately $2.2 million and $0,
respectively. Additionally, barter transaction costs were
reflected in programming and technical expenses and selling,
general and administrative expenses of

approximately $2.0 million and $0 and $189,000 and $0, in
the respective years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005.

Network
Affiliation Agreements
|
The Company has network affiliation agreements classified as
Other Intangible Assets. These agreements are amortized over
their useful lives. Losses on contract terminations are
determined based on the specifics of each contract in accordance
with SFAS No. 63, Financial Reporting by
Broadcasters. See also Note 6
Goodwill, Radio Broadcasting Licenses and Other Intangible
Assets.
The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. Total
advertising expenses were approximately $13.7 million,
$12.0 million and $8.5 million for the years ended
December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively.
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with
SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income
Taxes. Under SFAS No. 109, deferred tax
assets or liabilities are computed based upon the difference
between financial statement and income tax bases of assets and
liabilities using the enacted marginal tax rate. The Company
provides a valuation allowance on its net deferred tax assets
when it is more likely that such assets will not be realized.
Deferred income tax expense or benefits are based upon the
changes in the asset or liability from period to period.

Stock-Based
Compensation
|
Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the fair
value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123(R),
Share-Based Payment using the modified
prospective transition method and therefore has not restated
prior periods results as a result of the adoption of this
pronouncement. Under this transition method, stock-based
compensation expense during the year ended December 31,
2006 included compensation expense for all stock-based
compensation awards granted prior to, but not yet vested as of
January 1, 2006, and was based on the grant date fair value
estimated in accordance with the original provisions of
SFAS No. 123. Stock-based compensation expense for all
share-based payment awards granted after January 1, 2006
was based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance
with the provisions of SFAS No. 123(R). The Company
recognized these compensation costs net of a forfeiture rate of
7.5% and recognized the compensation costs for only those shares
expected to vest on a straight-line basis over the requisite
service period of the award. In general, the Companys
stock options vest ratably over a four-year period. The Company
estimated the forfeiture rate for the year ended
December 31, 2006 based on its historical experience during
the preceding three years.
Prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R), tax
deduction benefits relating to stock-based compensation were
presented in the Companys consolidated statements of cash
flows as operating cash flows, along with other tax cash flows,
in accordance with the provisions of Emerging Issues Task Force
(EITF)
No. 00-15,
Classification in the Statement of Cash Flows of the
Income Tax Benefit Received by a Company upon Exercise of a
Nonqualified Employee Stock Option.
SFAS No. 123(R) supersedes EITF
No. 00-15,
amends SFAS No. 95, Statement of Cash
Flows, and requires tax benefits relating to excess
stock-based compensation deductions to be prospectively
presented in the Companys consolidated statements of cash
flows as financing cash flows instead of operating cash flows.
The Company is currently in a net operating loss tax position;
hence tax benefits resulting from stock-based compensation
deductions in excess of amounts reported for financial reporting
purposes were not recognized in financing cash flows during the
year ended December 31, 2006.
As a result of adopting SFAS No. 123(R), the impact to
the Companys consolidated financial statements for the
year ended December 31, 2006 was to increase the net loss
approximately $3.3 million after taxes, than if it had
continued to account for stock-based compensation under APB
No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to

The Companys comprehensive (loss) income consists of net
(loss) income and other items recorded directly to the equity
accounts. The objective is to report a measure of all changes in
equity of an enterprise that result from transactions and other
economic events during the period, other than transactions with
owners. The Companys other comprehensive (loss) income
consists of gains and losses on derivative instruments that
qualify for cash flow hedge treatment.

The Company has only one segment, radio broadcasting. The
Company came to this conclusion because it has one principal
product or service (sale of advertising time), has the same type
of customer and operating strategy in each market, operates in
one regulatory environment, has only one management group that
manages the entire Company and provides information on the
Companys results as one segment to the key
decision-makers. All of the Companys broadcast revenue is
derived from stations located in the United States.

Earnings
(Loss) Per Share
|
Earnings (loss) per share is based on the weighted-average
number of common and diluted common equivalent shares for stock
options outstanding during the period the calculation is made,
divided into the net income (loss) applicable to common
stockholders. Diluted common equivalent shares consist of shares
issuable upon the exercise of stock options using the treasury
stock method.

Discontinued
Operations and Assets Held for Sale
|
For those businesses where management has committed to a plan to
divest, each business is valued at the lower of its carrying
amount or estimated fair value less cost to sell. If the
carrying amount of the business exceeds its estimated fair
value, a loss is recognized. The fair values are estimated using
accepted valuation techniques such as a discounted cash flow
model, valuations performed by third parties, earnings
multiples, or indicative bids, when available. A number of
significant estimates and assumptions are involved in the
application of these techniques, including the forecasting of
markets and market share, revenues, costs and expenses, and
multiple other factors. Management considers historical
experience and all available information at the time the
estimates are made; however, the fair values that are ultimately
realized upon the sale of the businesses to be divested may
differ from the estimated fair values reflected in the
consolidated financial statements.
Businesses to be divested are classified in the consolidated
financial statements as either discontinued operations or assets
held for sale. For businesses classified as discontinued
operations, the balance sheet amounts and income statement
results are reclassified from their historical presentation to
discontinued assets and liabilities of operations on the
consolidated balance sheet and to discontinued operations in the
consolidated statement of operations for all periods presented.
The gains or losses associated with these divested businesses
are recorded in income (loss) from discontinued operations in
the statement of operations. The consolidated statement of cash
flows is also reclassified for assets held for sale and
discontinued operations for all periods presented. Management
does not expect any continuing involvement with these businesses
following the sale, and these businesses are expected to be
disposed of within one year.

Impact
of Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
|
In September 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission
(SEC) issued SAB No. 108,
Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements
when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial
Statement..
F-12
RADIO
ONE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Continued)
SAB 108 was issued to provide interpretive guidance on how
the effects of the carryover or reversal of prior year
misstatements should be considered in quantifying a current year
misstatement. The provisions of SAB 108 were effective for
the Companys annual reporting as of December 31,
2006. The adoption of SAB 108 did not have an impact on our
consolidated financial statements.
In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
(FASB) issued SFAS No. 157, Fair
Value Measurements. SFAS 157 defines fair value,
establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally
accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about
fair value measurements. SFAS 157 becomes effective for us
on January 1, 2008. Upon adoption, the provisions of
SFAS 157 are to be applied prospectively with limited
exceptions. We do not expect the adoption of SFAS 157 will
have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In June 2006, the FASB issued Financial Accounting Standards
Board interpretation (FIN) No. 48,
Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes
Interpretation of SFAS No. 109.
FIN No. 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and
measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition
and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken
in a tax return. FIN No. 48 requires that the Company
recognize the impact of a tax position in the financial
statements, if that position is more likely than not of being
sustained on audit, based on the technical merits of the
position. FIN No. 48 also provides guidance on
de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties,
accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. The
provisions of FIN No. 48 are effective beginning
January 1, 2007, with the cumulative effect of the change
in accounting principle recorded as an adjustment to opening
retained earnings. The Company expects that the FIN 48
liability, inclusive of previous tax contingencies, is
approximately $4.9 million, which will be reflected in the
consolidated balance sheet as a long-term tax liability and a
reduction in retained earnings as of January 1, 2007. The
tax impact of implementing FIN 48 will be a charge of
approximately $1.1 million. The Company will review its
estimates on a quarterly basis and any change in its FIN 48
liabilities will result in an adjustment to its income tax
expense in the consolidated statement of operations in each
period measured. The Company anticipates that there will be no
immediate impact on the Companys cash flows.

RESTATEMENT
OF CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS:
|
The Company is restating, for reasons described below, the
consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2005 and the
related consolidated statements of operations,
stockholders equity and cash flows for the years ended
December 31, 2005 and 2004. In addition, we are restating
the unaudited quarterly financial information and financial
statements for the interim periods of 2005. The unaudited
quarterly financial information and financial statements for the
interim periods of 2006 are not restated, and the impact from
the restatement was recorded in the three months ended
December 31, 2006, as it did not have a material impact on
2006 annual or interim operating results. The restatements do
not result in a change to our previously reported revenue, cash
flow from operations or total cash and cash equivalents shown in
our historical consolidated financial statements.
Audit
committee review
Prompted by numerous headlines regarding the Securities and
Exchange Commissions (SEC) investigation of
options practices by public companies, we conducted a voluntary,
internal review of our historical stock option grant practices
and related accounting. The review covered options granted
during the period from May 1999 (the date of our initial public
offering) through December 2006. Based on our preliminary
findings, the Companys audit committee retained the law
firm of Covington & Burling LLP
(Covington) to assist it in conducting a full
investigation of our past option grant practices. Covington
retained three information technology vendors to facilitate the
search and retrieval of electronic data from our computer and
backup storage systems, interviewed 27 current and former
employees, board members, executive officers and outside counsel
and reviewed over a million pages of documents. The documents
reviewed included compensation committee and board meeting
minutes, written consents, electronic data, employment and
payroll records, employment agreements and offer
F-13

NOTES TO
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Continued)
letters, grant agreements and notices, SEC filings, recipient
lists, stock option database information, and other relevant
documents. Based on Covingtons investigation, the audit
committee found no fraud or intentional wrongdoing. As a result
of the internal review and investigation by Covington, the audit
committee found that the original measurement dates of certain
stock option grants, for financial accounting purposes, did not
meet the requirements of Accounting Principles Board
(APB) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for
Stock Issued to Employees. Consequently, for financial
accounting purposes, we made the decision to revise the
measurement dates for nine of the large grants awarded, and six
individual grants, consistent with the standards of APB Opinion
No. 25. With the exception of one grant, the closing price
of our stock at the original stated grant date was lower than
the closing price on the revised measurement date, which
resulted in additional stock-based compensation expense in each
of the years from 1999 through 2006. The additional stock-based
compensation expense in some years was not material; the
adjustment to 2006 was not material and was recorded in the
fourth quarter of 2006.
Stock
options grant summary
From May 1999 through December 31, 2006, we awarded stock
options covering approximately 9.5 million shares of common
stock. As shown in the table below, there were six annual
company-wide grants to eligible employees as well as grants to
executive officers, non-employee board members and individual
employees. There was no annual grant to employees in 2004 and no
annual grant to employees, executive officers or non-employee
board members in 2006. Other than non-employee board members and
one contractor, we did not award stock options to non-employees.

Adjustments
to measurement dates
The requirement to revise the measurement dates of certain stock
option grants, for financial accounting purposes, to meet the
measurement date criteria of APB Opinion No. 25, is
attributed to a number of different circumstances, described in
the following paragraphs. Although measurement dates were
adjusted in nine of the 11 large grants, 93% of the
additional pre-tax stock-based compensation expense recorded is
attributable to the
F-14
RADIO
ONE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Continued)
April 2001 and the October 2000 grants. All remaining
non-forfeited options awarded as part of the April 2001 grant
were cancelled in May 2007. Of the nine large grants where
measurement dates were revised, five involved grants to
executive officers and/or non-employee directors, and the
resulting additional pre-tax stock-based compensation expense
was approximately $7.8 million.
No contemporaneous documentation of
approval. In the December 2002 and December
2003 company-wide grants, one of which also included
executive officers, there was no contemporaneous documentation
to confirm that compensation committee or board approval had
occurred on the indicated grant date. Grant approval in each
case was documented by unanimous written consent
(UWC), using the as of date in the
signed consent as the approval date. The measurement dates were
adjusted to conform to the date on which the last consent was
received, as evidenced by the header on the return telecopy,
since the required granting actions, including approval, were
not complete until the signed consents were returned to us. In
the August 2003, June 2004 and May 2005 grants to
non-employee board members, there was no contemporaneous
documentation to confirm that approval had occurred on the
original grant date. The August 2003 and June 2004 measurement
dates were revised to the date that the Form 4 was filed
with the SEC, which were two days after the originally assigned
measurement dates for both grants. The May 2005 measurement date
was revised to the date approval occurred, which was several
weeks later.
Selection of grant date prior to approval. In
the December 2001 company-wide grant, the grant date
selected was prior to the date on which the compensation
committee approved the grant and the schedule of option
recipients. The measurement date was adjusted to the date of the
compensation committee meeting during which the related final
granting action of approval occurred. In the April 2001 grant to
executive officers and non-employee board members, the grant was
ratified at a meeting of the board of directors, at which the
board specified a designated grant date and corresponding
exercise price that preceded the date of the board meeting by
several weeks. The measurement date was adjusted to the date
that the board of directors ratified the grant, as reflected in
the board minutes. That grant accounted for 84% of the
additional pre-tax stock-based compensation expense recorded.
None of these options was exercised and no individual received a
financial benefit from this grant. All remaining non-forfeited
options awarded with this grant were cancelled in May 2007.
Lack of finality of recipient list on company-wide
grants. In the October 2000 and May
2005 company-wide grants, the list of grant recipients and
the number of options awarded to each recipient was not
documented or determined with finality until a date subsequent
to the original measurement date. Because there was either no
date on the final recipient lists, or because the recipient list
was not final until after the original grant date, we determined
the revised measurement date for the company-wide grant based on
e-mail,
option database record add date, employee communications, and
other available documentation.
Improper measurement date selection. In each
of the six company-wide grants, certain recipients, including a
contractor in one case, were added or option amounts were
increased or decreased after the revised measurement date. In
each of these cases, the best available evidence was used to
determine the appropriate measurement date for the affected
individual grant. The documentation that was relied on included
the date of the letter communicating the terms of the award to
the employee, the option database record add date and
e-mail.
Incorrect measurement dates for new hire and other
grants. In three instances, the grant date for
options offered to new employees as an incentive to accept the
offer preceded the actual start date for the employee. This
occurred either because the grant date used was the date of the
offer letter rather than the start date or the employees
start date was delayed but the grant date was not changed
accordingly. In addition, there were three individual grants
related to an employment agreement or status which were
incorrectly recorded and adjusted to the appropriate grant
measurement date. As a result, we recognized $11,000 of
additional pre-tax stock-based compensation expense for the
period from January 1, 1999 through December 31, 2005,
relating to six individual grants.

Accounting
impact
As a result of the investigation, we recorded additional
stock-based compensation expense, after tax, of approximately
$9.2 million, spread over the eight-year period from 1999
through 2006. The impact on our consolidated balance sheet at
December 31, 2006 was an increase in additional paid-in
capital of $9.3 million and an increase in accumulated
deficit of $9.2 million, and at December 31, 2005, the
impact was an increase in additional paid-in capital of
$9.2 million and an increase in accumulated deficit of
$9.0 million. There was no impact on revenue.

Taxes
The tax consequences of the incorrect measurement dates have
been computed and attributed to the years in which the errors
arose. In the aggregate, the financial impact of these tax
adjustments is a liability of $503,000 as of December 31,
2006. As a result of the change in measurement dates described
above, certain stock options granted from May 1999 to December
2005 were issued at prices below fair market value on the
revised measurement date and should have been classified as
Non-Qualified Stock Options (NQs), rather than
Incentive Stock Options (ISOs). Due to the
differences in the tax treatment between ISOs and NQs, we
underreported or under-withheld certain payroll taxes for those
NQ options. The tax liabilities, including interest and
penalties, that we have recorded include the impact of the
reclassification of these options for tax purposes as depicted
in the pre-tax adjustments column of the table included in
Accounting Impact above. There were no options exercised
in 1999 and 2000 for any grants that included revised
measurement dates, hence, there was no resulting pre-tax
adjustment impact. The income tax benefit of the additional
stock-based compensation expense is significantly offset by the
impact of Internal Revenue Code Section 162(m) limitations
for three executive officers awarded options for the April 2001
grant. As a result of Section 162(m), approximately
$2.4 million of the tax benefit lost was because of the
maximum $1.0 million of deductible compensation allowed for
federal income tax purposes.
Other
restatement item
In addition to the adjustments related to the stock option
review, the restated consolidated financial statements presented
in this
Form 10-K
include an adjustment to correct an accounting error for the
year ended December 31, 2005. This correction relates to a
change in methodology in determining the carry forward of prior
year net operating losses (NOLs) for state tax
purposes. In connection with the change in methodology, an error
was made in calculating the NOLs for certain states for 2005.
The impact on the financial statements for the year ended
December 31, 2005 is an additional deferred tax expense of
approximately $1.1 million. The correction pertained to and
is recorded in the three months ended December 31, 2005,
and did not have a material impact on 2005 interim or annual
results. The combined impact of the state tax NOL correction and
the stock-based compensation adjustments described above reduced
net income by approximately $1.9 million and
$10.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2005 and
the seven-year restatement periods from 1999 through 2005,
respectively.

GOODWILL,
RADIO BROADCASTING LICENSES AND OTHER INTANGIBLE
ASSETS:
|
The fair value of goodwill and radio broadcasting licenses is
determined on a market basis using a discounted cash flow model
considering the markets revenue, number of stations in the
market, the performance of stations, the Companys
performance and estimated multiples for the sale of stations in
the market. Because the assumptions used in estimating the fair
value of goodwill and radio broadcasting licenses are based on
current conditions, a change in market conditions or in the
discount rate could have a significant effect on the estimated
value of goodwill or radio broadcasting licenses. A significant
decrease in the fair value of goodwill or radio broadcasting
licenses in a market could result in an impairment charge. The
Company performs an impairment test as of
October 1st of each year, or when other conditions
suggest an impairment may have occurred.
In 2006, the Company recorded a non-cash impairment charge of
approximately $63.3 million related to certain radio
broadcasting licenses (approximately $55.7 million) and
goodwill (approximately $7.6 million) reflecting an overall
market decline in its Los Angeles and Louisville markets.

owned approximately 36% of TV One on a fully-converted basis.
The Company has recorded its investment at cost and has adjusted
the carrying amount of the investment to recognize the change in
the Companys claim on the net assets of TV One resulting
from operating losses of TV One as well as other capital
transactions of TV One using a hypothetical liquidation at book
value approach. For the years ended December 31, 2006,
2005, and 2004, the Companys allocable share of TV
Ones operating losses was approximately $2.3 million,
$1.8 million and $3.9 million, respectively. Under the
hypothetical liquidation at book value approach, the increase in
the Companys claim on the change in net assets of TV One
resulting from TV Ones buyback of equity from certain TV
One investors, resulted in a decrease of $152,000 in additional
paid-in capital of the Company for the year ended
December 31, 2006, in accordance with SAB No. 51,
Accounting for Sales of Stock by a Subsidiary.
The Company also entered into separate network services and
advertising services agreements with TV One in 2003. Under the
network services agreement, which expires in January 2009, the
Company is providing TV One with administrative and operational
support services. Under the advertising services agreement, the
Company is providing a specified amount of advertising to TV One
over a term of five years ending in January 2009. In
consideration for providing these services, the Company has
received equity in TV One and receives an annual fee of $500,000
in cash for providing services under the network services
agreement.
The Company is accounting for the services provided to TV One
under the advertising and network services agreements in
accordance with EITF Issue
No. 00-8,
Accounting by a Grantee for an Equity Instrument to Be
Received in Conjunction with Providing Goods or Services.
As services are provided to TV One, the Company is recording
revenue based on the fair value of the most reliable unit of
measurement in these transactions. For the advertising services
agreement, the most reliable unit of measurement has been
determined to be the value of underlying advertising time that
is being provided to TV One. For the network services agreement,
the most reliable unit of measurement has been determined to be
the value of the equity received in TV One. As a result, the
Company is re-measuring the fair value of the equity received in
consideration of its obligations under the network services
agreement in each subsequent reporting period as the services
are provided. The Company recognized approximately
$2.9 million, $2.7 million and $1.9 million of
revenue relating to these two agreements for the years ended
December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

DERIVATIVE
INSTRUMENTS:
|
During 2005, pursuant to the Credit Agreement (as defined
below), the Company entered into four fixed rate swap agreements
to reduce exposure to interest rate fluctuations on certain
floating rate debt commitments. The Company accounts for swap
agreements under the
mark-to-market
method of accounting.
The swap agreements had the following terms:

Each swap agreement has been accounted for as a qualifying cash
flow hedge of the Companys senior bank term debt in
accordance with SFAS No. 133, whereby changes in the
fair market value are reflected as adjustments to the fair value
of the derivative instruments as reflected on the accompanying
balance sheets.
Under the swap agreements, the Company pays the fixed rate
listed in the table above plus a spread based on its leverage
ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement). The counterparties
to the agreements pay the Company a floating interest rate based
on the three-month London Interbank Offered Rate
(LIBOR) (measurement and settlement is performed
quarterly). The counterparties to these agreements are
international financial institutions. The Company estimates the
net fair value of these instruments as of December 31, 2006
to be a receivable of approximately $1.8 million. The fair
value of the interest rate swap agreements is estimated by
obtaining quotations from the financial institutions, which are
parties to the Companys swap agreements. The fair value is
an estimate of the net amount that the Company would receive on
December 31, 2006 if the agreements were transferred to
other parties or cancelled by the Company.
Costs incurred to execute the swap agreements are deferred and
amortized over the term of the swap agreements. The amounts
incurred by the Company, representing the effective difference
between the fixed rate under the swap agreements and the
variable rate on the underlying term of the debt, are included
in interest expense in the accompanying consolidated statements
of operations. In the event of early termination of these swap
agreements, any gains or losses would be amortized over the
respective lives of the underlying debt or recognized currently
if the debt is terminated earlier than initially anticipated.
The Company had two swap agreements with a notional value of
$150.0 million outstanding as of December 31, 2004.
Those agreements were terminated when the company entered into
the new bank agreement in June 2005. The Company did not incur
an early termination fee. The Company recorded a $363,000 gain
with the termination of the swap agreements in June 2005.

Senior
Subordinated Notes
In February 2005, the Company completed the private placement of
$200.0 million
63/8% senior
subordinated notes due 2013 realizing net proceeds of
approximately $195.3 million. The Company recorded
approximately $4.7 million in deferred financing costs,
which are being amortized to interest expense over the life of
the notes using the effective interest rate method. The net
proceeds of the offering, in addition to borrowings of
$110.0 million under the Companys previous revolving
credit facility, and available cash, were used to redeem our
outstanding
61/2% Convertible
Preferred Remarketable Term Income Deferrable Equity Securities
(HIGH TIDES) in an amount of $309.8 million. In
October 2005, the
63/8% senior
subordinated notes were exchanged for an equal amount of notes
registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the Securities Act).
Credit
Facilities
In June 2005, we entered into a credit agreement with a
syndicate of banks (the Credit Agreement). The
agreement was amended in April 2006 to modify certain financial
covenants. The term of the Credit Agreement is seven years and
the total amount available under the Credit Agreement is
$800.0 million, consisting of a $500.0 million
revolving facility and a $300.0 million term loan facility.
Borrowings under the credit facilities are subject to compliance
with financial covenants and other provisions of the Credit
Agreement. We may use proceeds from the credit facilities for
working capital, capital expenditures made in the ordinary
course of business, our common stock repurchase program, direct
and indirect investments permitted under the Credit Agreement,
and other lawful corporate purposes. The Credit Agreement
contains affirmative and negative covenants that we must comply
with, including (a) maintaining an interest coverage ratio
of no less than 1.90 to 1.00 from January 1, 2006 to
December 31, 2007, and no less than 2.25 to 1.00 from
January 1, 2008 to December 31, 2008, and no less than
2.50 to 1.00 from January 1, 2009 and thereafter,
(b) maintaining a total leverage ratio of no greater than
7.00 to 1.00 from April 1, 2006 to December 31, 2007,
and no greater than 6.00 to 1.00 from January 1, 2008 and
thereafter, (c) limitations on liens, (d) limitations
on the sale of assets, (e) limitations on the payment of
dividends, and (f) limitations on mergers, as well as other
customary covenants. Simultaneous with entering into the Credit
Agreement, we borrowed $437.5 million under the Credit
Agreement to retire all outstanding obligations under our
previous credit agreement. We have received a waiver under the
Credit Agreement extending the due date for delivery of our
consolidated financial statements for the year ended
December 31, 2006 and the quarter ended March 31, 2007
and waiving compliance with the interest ratio covenant in the
Credit Agreement until July 13, 2007. We expect that with
the filing of this
Form 10-K
and the subsequent filing of our first quarter
Form 10-Q
we will be in compliance with the requirements for delivery of
our consolidated financial statements.

For the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, the Company
had average borrowings outstanding of approximately
$437.5 million and $452.5 million, respectively, at
average annual interest rates of approximately 6.72% and 5.89%,
respectively.
The Credit Agreement, and the indentures governing the
Companys senior subordinated notes, contain covenants that
restrict, among other things, the ability of the Company to
incur additional debt, purchase capital stock, make capital
expenditures, make investments or other restricted payments,
swap or sell assets, engage in transactions with related
parties, secure non-senior debt with assets, or merge,
consolidate or sell all or substantially all of its assets.
The Companys borrowings under the Credit Agreement are

Deferred income taxes reflect the impact of temporary
differences between the assets and liabilities recognized for
financial reporting purposes and amounts recognized for tax
purposes. Deferred taxes are based on tax laws as currently
enacted.
In June 2005, the state of Ohio enacted a law that will
phase-out the corporation franchise tax and phase-in a
commercial activity tax. The commercial activity tax is based on
gross receipts. The Company has determined the likelihood of a
reversal of certain temporary differences related to intangible
assets within the five-year period of the phase-out is unlikely,
as these temporary items have indefinite lives. Under the new
law, temporary differences (which would have created a deferred
tax asset or liability) reversing after the phase-in period of
the gross receipts based tax will no longer impact the
Companys income tax provision. Therefore, the Company
reduced its deferred tax liability and recorded an income tax
benefit of approximately $4.7 million for the year ended
December 31, 2005. For year ended December 31, 2006,
the Company recorded a net deferred tax liability of $948,000
based on the agreement to sell stations located in our Dayton
and Louisville markets, which will result in a reversal of
certain temporary differences.
In May 2006, the State of Texas enacted a law that changed the
current tax structure to a margin tax effective for tax years
beginning January 1, 2007. This tax is calculated by
deducting certain expenses from gross receipts to determine
taxable income and is considered an income tax for
SFAS No. 109 purposes. During the three months ended
June 30, 2006, the Company recorded a deferred tax
liability of $540,000 for its difference between book and tax
basis in its intangible assets as a result of the change in the
law. The Company did not previously establish any deferred tax
liabilities for Texas because, historically, the Company paid a
franchise tax rather than an income tax in Texas.

The Companys purchase of 51% of the common stock of Reach
Media and 100% of NMBC in 2005 and 2004, respectively, were
stock acquisitions. Associated with these stock purchases, the
Company allocated the purchase price to the related assets
acquired, with the excess purchase price allocated to goodwill.
For income tax purposes, in a stock purchase, the underlying
assets of the acquired companies usually retain their historical
tax basis. Accordingly, the Company recorded a deferred tax
liability of approximately $28.3 million in 2005 related to
the difference between the book and tax basis for all of the
assets acquired (excluding nondeductible goodwill).
At December 31, 2006, net deferred tax liabilities include
a deferred tax asset of $1.2 million relating to
stock-based compensation expense under
SFAS No. 123(R). Full realization of this deferred tax
asset requires non-qualified stock options to be exercised at a
price equal or exceeding the sum of the grant price plus the
fair value of the option at the grant date. The provisions of
SFAS No. 123(R), however, do not allow a valuation
allowance to be recorded unless the Companys future
taxable income is expected to be insufficient to recover the
asset. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the stock
price of the Companys common stock will rise to levels
sufficient to realize the entire benefit currently reflected in
its balance sheet. To the extent compensation includes amounts
related to ISOs, no tax benefit is recorded, and the stock-based
compensation expense will be a permanent difference that will
result in an increase to the effective tax rate.
A reconciliation of the statutory federal income taxes to the
recorded income tax provision is as follows:

The Company acquired net operating loss (NOL)
carryforwards of approximately $1.2 million related to
Reach Media in 2005. These amounts have been fully utilized. As
of December 31, 2006, the Company had a gross federal NOL
carryforward of approximately $300.8 million, and
19.1 million net state NOL, which is recorded as a deferred
tax asset. If not utilized, the NOL carryforwards will expire
beginning in 2018 through 2026. The Company believes its net
operating losses will be utilized within the carryforward period
based on managements estimate of the Companys
projected taxable income and its ability to employ various tax
planning strategies, if needed. To the extent that actual future
financial results differ from managements estimates, the
Company may be

required to record a valuation allowance against this asset. The
Companys utilization of these NOL carryforwards may be
subject to limitation under Section 382 of the Internal
Revenue Code.
The Company has evaluated whether its deferred tax assets are
more likely than not to be utilized. Based on this evaluation,
the Company has provided a valuation allowance of approximately
$1.4 million related to the deferred tax assets for certain
state NOLs as of December 31, 2006. The Company has also
provided a valuation allowance of $799,000 related to the
deferred tax assets for charitable contribution carryforwards as
of December 31, 2006. The Company has determined it is more
likely than not that the benefit of these items will not be
utilized.

Stock
Repurchase Program
In May 2005, the Companys board of directors authorized a
stock repurchase program for up to $150.0 million of the
Companys Class A and Class D common stock over a
period of 18 months, with the amount and timing of
repurchases based on stock price, general economic and market
conditions, certain restrictions contained in the Credit
Agreement, the indentures governing the Companys senior
subordinated debt, and certain other factors. The repurchase
program does not obligate the Company to repurchase any of its
common stock and may be discontinued or suspended at any time.
No shares of Class A or Class D stocks were
repurchased during 2006. For the year ended December 31,
2005, 592,744 shares of Class A and
5,805,697 shares of Class D common stock were
repurchased at an average price of $12.02 and $12.15,
respectively, for a total of approximately $77.7 million.
Redemption
of Convertible Preferred Stock
In February 2005, the Company redeemed all of its outstanding
HIGH TIDES in an amount of $309.8 million. This redemption
was financed with the net proceeds of the sale of the
Companys
63/8% senior
subordinated notes due 2013, borrowings under its revolving
credit facility, and available cash.
Stock-based
Compensation
On January 1, 2006, the Company adopted
SFAS No. 123(R), Share Based
Payment, using the modified prospective method, which
requires measurement of compensation cost for all stock-based
awards at fair value on date of grant and recognition of
compensation over the service period for awards expected to
vest. The fair value of stock options is determined using the
Black- Scholes valuation model, which is consistent with our
valuation methodologies previously used for options in footnote
disclosures required under SFAS No. 123,
Accounting for Stock-based Compensation, as
amended by SFAS No. 148, Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure.
Such fair value is recognized as an expense over the service
period, net of estimated forfeitures, using the straight-line
method under SFAS No. 123(R). Estimating the number of
stock awards that will ultimately vest requires judgment, and to
the extent actual forfeitures differ substantially from our
current estimates, amounts will be recorded as a cumulative
adjustment in the period the estimated are revised. We consider
many factors when estimating expected forfeitures, including the
types of awards, employee classification and historical
experience. Actual forfeitures may differ substantially from our
current estimate.
In light of the accounting guidance under
SFAS No. 123(R), the Company re-evaluated the
assumptions used in estimating the fair value of options
granted. As part of this assessment, management determined that
the historical volatility of the preceding three years is a
better indicator of expected volatility and future stock price
trends than the historical volatility reflected since the
Company conducted its initial public offering of common
F-33
RADIO
ONE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Continued)
stock, which more closely approximates the expected life
assumption used in the Companys fair value calculations.
This determination was based on analysis of :
1. implied volatility on publicly-traded options on Radio
One shares;
2. implied and historical volatility of publicly-traded
common stock of peer companies;
3. corporate and capital structure changes that may
potentially affect future volatility; and
4. mean reversion tendencies, trends and cycles.
In connection with its adoption of SFAS No. 123(R),
the Company also examined the historical pattern of option
exercises in an effort to determine if there were any
discernable activity patterns based on certain option holder
populations. From its analysis, the Company identified four
groups. The expected lives computation is based on historical
exercise patterns and post-vesting termination behavior within
each of the four groups identified. The interest rate for
periods within the expected life of the award is based on the
United States Treasury Yield curve in effect at the time of the
grant.
The Company granted 62,000, 1,634,000 and 1,633,000 stock
options during the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and
2004, respectively. The per share weighted-average fair value of
employee options granted during the years ended
December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004 was $4.36, $7.13 and
$8.02, respectively, on the date of grant using the
Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model with the following

Stock
Option and Restricted Stock Grant Plan
In March 2004, the Companys board of directors voted to
increase the number of shares of Class D common stock
issuable under the Stock Option and Restricted Stock Grant Plan
(Plan) to 10,816,198 and to incorporate all prior
amendments into the Plan. This amendment to the Plan was
approved by the Companys stockholders in May 2004. At
inception of the Plan, the Companys board of directors
authorized 1,408,099 shares of Class A common stock to
be issuable under the plan. The options are exercisable in
installments determined by the compensation committee of the
Companys board of directors. The options expire as
determined by the committee, but no later than ten years from
the date of the grant. The Company uses an average life for all
option awards. The Company settles stock options upon exercise
by issuing stock. As of December 31, 2006,
5,495,063 shares were available for grant under the
Companys stock option plan.

The aggregate intrinsic value in the table above represents the
difference between the Companys stock closing price on the
last day of trading for the year ended December 31, 2006
and the exercise price, multiplied by the number of shares that
would have been received by the holders of in-the-money options
had all the option holders exercised their options on
December 31, 2006. This amount changes based on the fair
market value of the Companys stock. Total intrinsic value
of options exercised was $3,000 during the year ended
December 31, 2006. The number of options vested during the
year ended December 31, 2006 was 137,150. We have recorded
a deferred tax asset of approximately $1.4 million related
to the stock-based compensation expense recorded during the year
ended December 31, 2006.
As of December 31, 2006, approximately $6.4 million of
total unrecognized compensation cost related to stock options is
expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of
three years. The stock option weighted-average fair value per
share was $8.65 at December 31, 2006.

RELATED
PARTY TRANSACTIONS:
|
In 2001, three officers of the Company, the Chief Executive
Officer (CEO), Chief Financial Officer
(CFO) and the Chief Administrative Officer
(CAO), purchased 1,500,000 shares of the
Companys Class D common stock, 333,334 shares of
the Companys Class A common stock and 666,666 of the
Companys Class D common stock, and
250,000 shares of the Companys Class D common
stock, respectively. The stock was purchased with the proceeds

approximately $21.1 million, $7.0 million and
$2.0 million, respectively.
The CEO made an interest payment on his loan in the amount of
$2.0 million in December 2004. The CEO made a further
repayment of approximately $17.8 million on his loan in
February 2005 and repaid the remaining balance of the loan in an
amount of approximately $6.0 million in March 2005. The
repayment of approximately $17.8 million was effected using
1,125,000 shares of the Companys Class D common
stock owned by the CEO. All shares transferred to the Company in

the CAO repaid her loan in full. The repayment of approximately
$2.5 million was effected using 174,754 shares of the
Companys Class D common stock owned by the CAO. All
shares transferred to the Company in satisfaction of this loan
have been retired.
Also in September 2005, the CFO repaid a portion of his loan.
The partial repayment of approximately $7.5 million was
effected using 300,000 shares of the Companys
Class A common stock and 230,000 shares of the
Companys Class D common stock owned by the CFO. As of
December 31, 2006, the remaining principal and interest

In March 2007, the Company signed an agreement to acquire the
assets of
WDBZ-AM, a
radio station located in the Cincinnati metropolitan area from
Blue Chip Communications, Inc. (Blue Chip) for
approximately $2.6 million in seller financing. The
financing is a 5.1% interest bearing loan payable monthly
through July 2008. Blue Chip is owned by L. Ross Love, a member
of the Companys board of directors. The transaction was
approved by a special committee of independent directors
appointed by the board of directors. Additionally, the Company
retained an independent valuation firm to provide a fair value
appraisal of the station. The Company continues to operate and
consolidate the financial results of
WDBZ-AM
under a LMA for no annual fee until closing, which is expected
to take place in the second half of 2007.
In September 2006, the Company purchased a radio broadcasting
tower and related facilities in the Detroit metropolitan area
from American Signaling Corporation for $925,000 in cash. The
tower serves as the transmitter site for station
WDMK-FM.
American Signaling Corporation is a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Syndicated Communications Venture Partners II, LP. Terry L.
Jones, a general partner of Syndicated Communications Venture
Partners II, LP, is also a member of the Companys
board of directors. The terms of the transaction were approved
by an independent committee of the Companys board of
directors. Prior to the purchase, the Company had leased space
on the tower for the broadcast of
WDMK-FM from
American Signaling Corporation for $50,000 for the year ended
2006, and $75,000 for each of the years ended 2005 and 2004.
In October 2004, the Company acquired the outstanding stock of
NMBC, which owned
WAMJ-FM, a
radio station licensed to the Atlanta metropolitan area. The
total acquisition price was approximately $35.0 million in
cash, of which approximately $10.0 million was paid in
available cash and $25.0 million was paid through
borrowings under the Companys credit facility. Prior to
the acquisition, Mableton Investment Group, LLC
(MIG) was NMBCs majority shareholder. Alfred
C. Liggins, III, the Companys CEO, was the sole
member and manager of MIG. Until February 2003, Syndicated
Communications Venture Partners II, LP was also a member of MIG.
Terry L. Jones, a general partner of Syndicated Communications
Venture Partners II, LP is a member of the Companys
board of directors. The terms of the NMBC acquisition were
approved by an independent committee of the Companys board
of directors and a fairness opinion was obtained from an
independent third party. Prior to acquiring NMBC, the Company
programmed and provided marketing services to
WAMJ-FM
through an LMA with MIG. Total fees paid under the LMA were $0
and $154,000 for the years ended December 31, 2005 and
2004, respectively.
The Company leased office space from a partnership in which the
Companys CEO and Chairperson were partners. Effective
June 28, 2004, the partnership sold the property to a third
party. On that date, the Company entered into a new lease
agreement with the third party that expired in January 2005,
after which the Company relocated to a new facility. Total rent
paid to the partnership was $119,000 during the year ended
December 31, 2004.
The Companys CEO and Chairperson own a music company
called Music One, Inc. (Music One). The Company
sometimes engages in promoting the recorded music product of
Music One. Based on the cross-promotional value received by
Radio One, we believe that the provision of such promotion is
fair to Radio One. There were no cash, trade or no-charge orders
placed by Music one in 2006. In 2006, Music One paid to Radio
One a total of $169,000 for office space and administrative
services provided to Music One in 2006 and 2005. Radio One paid
$5,900 to or on behalf of Music One in 2006, primarily for a
market event and travel reimbursement.

COMMITMENTS
AND CONTINGENCIES:

Radio
Broadcasting Licenses
Each of the Companys radio stations operates pursuant to
one or more licenses issued by the Federal Communications
Commission that have a maximum term of eight years prior to
renewal. The Companys radio broadcasting licenses expire
at various times through August 1, 2014. Although the
Company may apply to renew its radio broadcasting licenses,
third parties may challenge the Companys renewal
applications. The Company is not aware of any facts or
circumstances that would prevent the Company from having its
current licenses renewed.
TV One
Cable Network
Pursuant to a limited liability company agreement dated
July 18, 2003, the Company and certain other investors
formed TV One for the purpose of developing and distributing a
new television programming service. The Company has committed to
make a cumulative cash investment of $74.0 million in TV
One over approximately four years. As of December 31, 2006,
the Company has already funded $51.6 million under this
agreement.
Royalty
Agreements
The Company has entered into fixed fee and variable share
agreements with music performance rights organizations that
expire as late as 2009. During the years ended December 31,
2006, 2005 and 2004, the Company incurred expenses of
approximately $12.6 million, $10.9 million and
$8.6 million, respectively, in connection with these
agreements.
Leases
and Other Operating Contracts and Agreements
The Company has noncancelable operating leases for office space,
studio space, broadcast towers and transmitter facilities that
expire over the next 19 years. The Companys leases
for broadcast facilities generally provide for a base rent plus
real estate taxes and certain operating expenses related to the
leases. Certain of the Companys leases contain renewal
options, escalating payments over the life of the lease and rent
concessions. Scheduled rent increases and rent concessions are
being amortized over the terms of the agreements using the
straight-line method, and are included in other liabilities in
the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. The future minimum
lease payments and rentals under non-cancelable leases as of
December 31, 2006 are shown below.
The Company has other operating contracts and agreements
including employment contracts, on-air talent contracts,
severance obligations, retention bonuses, consulting agreements,
equipment rental agreements, programming related agreements, and
other general operating agreements that expire over the next
eight years. The amounts the Company is obligated to pay for
these agreements are shown below.

and 2004 was approximately $8.6 million, $6.9 million,
and $6.2 million, respectively. The total cost of assets
under capital lease as of December 31, 2006 was $43,000.
Other
Contingencies
The Company has been named as a defendant in several legal
actions occurring in the ordinary course of business. It is
managements opinion, after consultation with its legal
counsel, that the outcome of these claims will not have a
material adverse effect on the Companys financial position
or results of operations.

CONTRACT
TERMINATION:
|
During the year ended December 31, 2005, the Company
terminated its national sales representation agreements with
Interep National Radio Sales, Inc. (Interep), and
entered into new agreements with Katz Communications, Inc.
(Katz), whereby Katz became the Companys sole
national sales representative. Interep had previously acted as a
national sales representative for approximately half of the
Companys national advertising business, while Katz
represented the remaining half. Katz paid the Company
$3.4 million as an inducement to enter into the new
agreements. Katz also agreed to pay Interep approximately
$5.3 million to satisfy the Companys termination
obligations stemming from the previous sales representation
agreements with Interep. Accordingly, the Company recorded the
termination obligation of approximately $5.3 million as a
one-time charge in selling, general and administrative expense
for the year ended December 31, 2005. Both the
$3.4 million inducement and the approximately
$5.3 million termination amount are being amortized over
the four-year life of the new Katz agreements as a reduction to
selling, general and administrative expense. As of
December 31, 2006, approximately $3.6 million of the
deferred termination obligation and inducement amount is
reflected in other long-term liabilities on the accompanying
consolidated balance sheets, and approximately $2.2 million
is reflected in other current liabilities.

The net loss applicable to common stockholders for the quarter
ended December 31, 2006 includes approximately
$63.3 million of pre-tax impairment of long-lived assets
expense, offset partially by approximately $11.1 million of
income from discontinued operations, net of tax, related to the
sale of WILD-FM in Boston. Additionally, the net of tax impact
of the stock-based compensation adjustment in 2006, which
amounted to $246,000, was recorded by the Company in its fourth
quarter of 2006 due to the immateriality of the expense to each
period within 2006. |

subsection (i) of this Section, the Guaranteeing Subsidiary and each Existing
Guarantor) hereby agrees as follows: |
|
a) |
|
Along with all Guarantors named in the Indenture, to jointly
and severally Guarantee to each Holder of a Note authenticated and delivered by

or any performance so guaranteed for whatever reason, the
Guarantors shall be jointly and severally obligated to pay the
same immediately. |
|
b) |
|
The obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective
of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Notes or the Indenture,
the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any
Holder of the Notes with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the
recovery of any judgment against the Company, any action to enforce the same or
any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable
discharge or defense of a guarantor. |
|
|
c) |
|
The following is hereby waived: diligence presentment, demand

2
|

the Company, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever. |
|
|
d) |
|
This Subsidiary Guarantee shall not be discharged except by
complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes and the
Indenture, and the Guaranteeing Subsidiary accepts all obligations of a
Guarantor under the Indenture. |
|
|
e) |
|
If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or
otherwise to return to the Company, the Guarantors, or any Custodian, Trustee,
liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to either the Company
or the Guarantors, any amount paid by either to the Trustee or such Holder,
this Subsidiary Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be
reinstated in full force and effect. |
|
|
f) |
|
The Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall not be entitled to any right
of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any obligations
guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby. |
|
|
g) |
|
As between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders and
the Trustee, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed
hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 of the Indenture for the
purposes of this Subsidiary Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or

such obligations as provided in Article 6 of the Indenture, such obligations
(whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the
Guarantors for the purpose of this Subsidiary Guarantee. |
|
|
h) |
|
The Guarantors shall have the right to seek contribution from
any non-paying Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right does not impair
the rights of the Holders under the Guarantee. |
|
|
i) |
|
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein,
pursuant to Section 11.02 of the Indenture, the Obligations of the Guaranteeing
Subsidiary created hereunder (and the Obligations of each Existing Guarantor)
shall be junior and subordinate to the Senior Guarantee of such Guarantor on
the same basis as the Notes are junior and subordinate to Senior Debt of the
Company. |
|
|
j) |
|
Pursuant to Section 11.03 of the Indenture, after giving effect
to any maximum amount and any other contingent and fixed liabilities that are
relevant under any applicable Bankruptcy or fraudulent conveyance laws, and
after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution
from or payments made by or on behalf of any other |
3
|
|
|
Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under
Article 11 of the Indenture, this new Subsidiary Guarantee shall be limited
to the maximum amount permissible such that the obligations of such
Guarantor under this Subsidiary Guarantee will not constitute a fraudulent
transfer or conveyance. |
|
3. |
|
EXECUTION AND DELIVERY. The Guaranteeing Subsidiary agrees to execute the
Subsidiary Guarantee as provided by Section 11.04 of the Indenture and Exhibit E
thereto and to recognize that the Subsidiary Guarantees shall remain in full force and
effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse on each Note a notation of such
Subsidiary Guarantee. |
|
|
4. |
|
GUARANTEEING SUBSIDIARY MAY CONSOLIDATE, ETC. ON CERTAIN TERMS. |
|
a) |
|
The Guaranteeing Subsidiary may not consolidate with or merge
with or into (whether or not such Guarantor is the surviving Person) another
corporation, Person or entity whether or not affiliated with such Guarantor
unless: |
|
(i) |
|
subject to Sections 11.05 and
11.06 of the Indenture, the Person formed by or surviving any
such consolidation or merger (if other than a Guarantor or the
Company) unconditionally assumes all the obligations of such
Guarantor, pursuant to a supplemental indenture in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, under the
Notes, the Indenture and the Subsidiary Guarantee on the terms
set forth herein or therein; and |
|
|
(ii) |
|
immediately after giving effect
to such transaction, no Default or Event of Default exists. |
|
b) |
|
In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance
and upon the assumption by the successor corporation, by supplemental
indenture, executed and delivered to the Trustee and satisfactory in form to
the Trustee, of the Subsidiary Guarantee endorsed upon the Notes and the due
and punctual performance of all of the covenants and conditions of the
Indenture to be performed by the Guarantor, such successor corporation shall
succeed to and be substituted for the Guarantor with the same effect as if it
had been named herein as a Guarantor. Such successor corporation thereupon may
cause to be signed any or all of the Subsidiary Guarantees to be endorsed upon
all of the Notes issuable hereunder which theretofore shall not have been
signed by the Company and delivered to the Trustee. All the Subsidiary
Guarantees so issued shall in all respects have the same legal rank and |
4
|
|
|
benefit under the Indenture as the Subsidiary Guarantees theretofore and
thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of the Indenture as though
all of such Subsidiary Guarantees had been issued at the date of the
execution hereof. |
|
|
c) |
|
Except as set forth in Articles 4 and 5 and Section 11.06 of
Article 11 of the Indenture, and notwithstanding clauses (a) and (b) above,
nothing contained in the Indenture or in any of the Notes shall prevent any
consolidation or merger of a Guarantor with or into the Company or another
Guarantor, or shall prevent any sale or conveyance of the property of a
Guarantor as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to the Company or
another Guarantor. |
|
a) |
|
In the event of a sale or other disposition of all of the
assets of any Guarantor, by way of merger, consolidation or otherwise, or a
sale or other disposition of all to the capital stock of any Guarantor, in each
case to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such
transaction) a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company, then such Guarantor (in
the event of a sale or other disposition, by way of merger, consolidation or
otherwise, of all of the capital stock of such Guarantor) or the corporation
acquiring the property (in the event of a sale or other disposition of all or
substantially all of the assets of such Guarantor) will be released and
relieved of any obligations under its Subsidiary Guarantee; provided that the
Net Proceeds of such sale or other disposition are applied in accordance with
the applicable provisions of the Indenture, including without limitation
Section 4.10 of the Indenture. Upon delivery by the Company to the Trustee of
an Officers Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such sale
or other disposition was made by the Company in accordance with the provisions
of the Indenture, including without limitation Section 4.10 of the Indenture,
the Trustee shall execute any documents reasonably required in order to
evidence the release of any Guarantor from its obligations under its Subsidiary
Guarantee. |
|
|
b) |
|
Any Guarantor not released from its obligations under its
Subsidiary Guarantee shall remain liable for the full amount of principal of
and interest on the Notes and for the other obligations of any Guarantor under
the Indenture as provided in Article 10 of the Indenture. |
|
6. |
|
NO RECOURSE AGAINST OTHERS. No past, present or future director, officer,
employee, incorporator, stockholder or agent of the Guaranteeing Subsidiary, as such,
shall have any liability for any obligations of the Company or any Guaranteeing
Subsidiary under the Notes, any Subsidiary Guarantees, the Indenture or this
Supplemental Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such
obligations or their creation. Each Holder of |
5
|
|
|
the Notes by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and
release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes. Such waiver may not
be effective to waive liabilities under the federal securities laws and it is the
view of the SEC that such a waiver is against public policy. |
|
|
7. |
|
GOVERNING LAW. THE INTERNAL LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SHALL GOVERN AND BE
USED TO CONSTRUE THIS SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO APPLICABLE
PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW TO THE EXTENT THAT THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF
ANOTHER JURISDICTION WOULD BE REQUIRED THEREBY. |
|
|
8. |
|
SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION; SERVICE OF PROCESS; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. Each
party hereto hereby submits to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the United States
District Court for the Southern District of New York and of any New York State Court
sitting in New York City for purposes of all legal proceedings arising out of or
relating to this Supplemental Indenture, the Notes, the Subsidiary Guarantees or the
transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. Each party hereto irrevocably waives, to
the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection which it may now or hereafter have
to the laying of the venue of any such proceeding brought in such a court and any claim
that any such proceeding brought in such a court has been brought in an inconvenient
forum. Process in any such suit, action or proceeding may be served on any party
anywhere in the world, whether within or without the State of New York. Without
limiting the foregoing, the parties agree that service of process upon such party at
the address referred to in Section 13.02 of the Indenture, together with written notice
of such service to such party, shall be deemed effective service of process upon such
party. Each of the parties hereto irrevocably waives any and all rights to trial by
jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to this Supplemental Indenture,
the Notes, the Subsidiary Guarantees or the transactions contemplated hereby and
thereby. |
|
|
9. |
|
COUNTERPARTS. The parties may sign any number of copies of this Supplemental
Indenture. Each signed copy shall be an original, but all of them together represent
the same agreement. |
|
|
10. |
|
EFFECT OF HEADINGS. The Section headings herein are for convenience only and
shall not affect the construction hereof. |
|
|
11. |
|
THE TRUSTEE. The Trustee shall not be responsible in any manner whatsoever for
or in respect of the validity or sufficiency of this Supplemental Indenture or for or
in respect of the recitals contained herein, all of which recitals are made solely by
the Guaranteeing Subsidiary and the Company. |
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Supplemental Indenture to be duly
executed and attested, all as of the date first above written.

|
This Subsidiary Guarantee shall not be discharged except by
complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes and the

|
If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or
otherwise to return to the Company, the Guarantors, or any Custodian, Trustee,

this Subsidiary Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be
reinstated in full force and effect. |

|
The Guarantors shall have the right to seek contribution from
any non-paying Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right does not impair
the rights of the Holders under the Guarantee. |
|
|
i) |
|
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein,
pursuant to Section 11.02 of the Indenture, the Obligations of the
Guaranteeing Subsidiary created hereunder (and the Obligations of each other
Guarantor) shall be junior and subordinate to the Senior Guarantee of such
Guarantor on the same basis as the Notes are junior and subordinate to Senior
Debt of the Company. |
|
|
j) |
|
Pursuant to Section 11.03 of the Indenture, after giving
effect to any maximum amount and any other contingent and fixed liabilities
that are relevant under any applicable Bankruptcy or |
3

fraudulent conveyance laws, and after giving effect to any collections
from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf
of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other

|
|
4. |
|
GUARANTEEING SUBSIDIARY MAY CONSOLIDATE, ETC. ON CERTAIN TERMS. |
|
a) |
|
The Guaranteeing Subsidiary may not consolidate with or merge
with or into (whether or not such Guarantor is the surviving Person) another
corporation, Person or entity whether or not affiliated with such Guarantor
unless: |
|
(i) |
|
subject to Sections 11.05
and 11.06 of the Indenture, the Person formed by or surviving
any such consolidation or merger (if other than a Guarantor
or the Company) unconditionally assumes all the obligations
of such Guarantor, pursuant to a supplemental indenture in
form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee,
under the Notes, the Indenture and the Subsidiary Guarantee
on the terms set forth herein or therein; and |
|
|
(ii) |
|
immediately after giving
effect to such transaction, no Default or Event of Default
exists. |
|
b) |
|
In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance
and upon the assumption by the successor corporation, by supplemental

4
|
|
|
satisfactory in form to the Trustee, of the Subsidiary Guarantee endorsed
upon the Notes and the due and punctual performance of all of the
covenants and conditions of the Indenture to be performed by the
Guarantor, such successor corporation shall succeed to and be substituted
for the Guarantor with the same effect as if it had been named herein as a
Guarantor. Such successor corporation thereupon may cause to be signed any
or all of the Subsidiary Guarantees to be endorsed upon all of the Notes
issuable hereunder which theretofore shall not have been signed by the
Company and delivered to the Trustee. All the Subsidiary Guarantees so
issued shall in all respects have the same legal rank and benefit under
the Indenture as the Subsidiary Guarantees theretofore and thereafter
issued in accordance with the terms of the Indenture as though all of such
Subsidiary Guarantees bad been issued at the date of the execution hereof |
|
|
c) |

another Guarantor. |

|
In the event of a sale or other disposition of all of the
assets of any Guarantor, by way of merger, consolidation or otherwise, or a
sale or other disposition of all to the capital stock of any Guarantor, in
each case to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to
such transaction) a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company, then such Guarantor
(in the event of a sale or other disposition, by way of merger, consolidation
or otherwise, of all of the capital stock of such Guarantor) or the
corporation acquiring the property (in the event of a sale or other
disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of such Guarantor) will
be released and relieved of any obligations under its Subsidiary Guarantee;
provided that the Net Proceeds of such sale or other disposition are applied
in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Indenture, including
without limitation Section 4.10 of the Indenture. Upon delivery by the Company
to the Trustee of an Officers Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the
effect that such sale or other disposition was made by the Company in
accordance with the |
5
|
|
|
provisions of the Indenture, including without limitation Section 4.10 of
the Indenture, the Trustee shall execute any documents reasonably required
in order to evidence the release of any Guarantor from its obligations
under its Subsidiary Guarantee. |
|
|
b) |
|
Any Guarantor not released from its obligations under its
Subsidiary Guarantee shall remain liable for the full amount of principal of
and interest on the Notes and for the other obligations of any Guarantor under

shall have any liability for any obligations of the Company or any Guaranteeing
Subsidiary under the Notes, any Subsidiary Guarantees, the Indenture or this
Supplemental Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such
obligations or their creation. Each Holder of the Notes by accepting a Note waives and
releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for
issuance of the Notes. Such waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities under the
federal securities laws and it is the view of the SEC that such a waiver is against
public policy. |

PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW TO THE EXTENT THAT THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF
ANOTHER JURISDICTION WOULD BE REQUIRED THEREBY. |

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires Radio Ones directors and
executive officers and persons who beneficially own more than ten percent of our common stock to
file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) reports showing ownership of and changes
in ownership of our common stock and other equity securities. On the basis of reports and
representations submitted by Radio Ones directors, executive officers, and greater than ten
percent owners, we believe that all required Section 16(a) filings for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 2006 were timely made, except that Form 5s were not timely filed for the director
grants issued in 2005.
Code of Ethics
We have adopted a Code of Ethics that applies to all of our directors, officers and employees
and meets the requirements of the rules of the SEC and the NASDAQ Stock Market. The Code of Ethics
is available on our website, www.radio-one.com, or can be obtained without charge by written
request to Assistant Secretary, Radio One, Inc., 5900 Princess Garden Parkway,
7th Floor, Lanham, MD 20706. We do not anticipate making material amendments
to or waivers from the provisions of the Code of Ethics. If we make any material amendments to our
Code of Ethics, or if our board of directors grants any waiver from a provision thereof to our
executive officers or directors, we will disclose the nature of such amendment or waiver, the name
of the person(s) to whom the waiver was granted and the date of the amendment or waiver in a
current report on Form 8-K.
Audit Committee
The audit committee consists of D. Geoffrey Armstrong, Brian W. McNeill and Ronald E.
Blaylock, each of whom satisfy the requirements for audit committee membership under the listing
standards of the NASDAQ Stock Market. Mr. Armstrong and Mr. McNeill are independent, as that term
is defined in Rule 4200(a)(14) of the NASDAQ Marketplace Rules. Because Mr. Blaylock is Chairman
and CEO of Blaylock & Company, Inc., formerly Blaylock & Partners, L.P., (Blaylock) an investment banking firm that participated in the
underwriting of Radio Ones 63/8 Senior Subordinated Notes issued in February 2005, Mr. Blaylock does
not meet this requirement. As permitted by NASDAQ rules, our board of directors has determined
that Mr. Blaylocks membership on the audit committee is required in the best interests of Radio
One and its stockholders. Blaylock was not the lead underwriter of the
transaction and Mr. Blaylock has been independent in all other matters in relation to Radio One. In
reaching its determination, our board of directors considered Mr. Blaylocks substantial experience
with financial accounting and internal controls, which he obtained as Chairman and CEO of Blaylock. The board of directors has determined that Mr. Armstrong qualifies as an audit
committee financial expert as defined by Item 401(h) of Regulation S-K of the Securities Act. The
board has adopted a written audit committee charter, which is available on our website at
www.radio-one.com/about/audit_committee.asp. The audit committee met seven times during 2006.
The audit committee is responsible for oversight of the quality and integrity of the
accounting, auditing and reporting practices of Radio One, and as part of this responsibility the
audit committee:
|
|
|
selects our independent auditors; |
|
|
|
|
reviews the services performed by our independent auditors, including non-audit services, if any; |
|
|
|
|
reviews the scope and results of the annual audit; |
|
|
|
|
reviews the adequacy of the system of internal accounting controls and internal control
over financial reporting; |
|
|
|
|
reviews and discusses the financial statements and accounting policies with management
and our independent auditors; |
|
|
|
|
reviews the performance and fees of our independent auditors; |
|
|
|
|
reviews the independence of our auditors; |
|
|
|
|
reviews the audit committee charter; and |
|
|
|
|
reviews related party transactions, if any. |

Exhibit 99.2
EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Compensation Policies and Philosophy
The overall objective of our compensation to our executives is to attract, motivate,
retain and reward the top-quality management that we need in order to operate successfully and meet
our strategic objectives. To achieve this, we aim to provide a compensation package that is
competitive in the market, provides rewards for achieving financial, operational and strategic
performance goals, and aligns executives financial interests with those of our shareholders.
We operate in the intensely competitive media industry, which is characterized by rapidly
changing technology, evolving industry standards, frequent introduction of new media services,
price and cost competition, limited advertising dollars, and extensive regulation. We face many
aggressive and well-financed competitors. In this environment, our success depends on attracting
and maintaining a leadership team with the integrity, skills, and dedication needed to manage a
dynamic organization and the vision to anticipate and respond to future market developments. We use
our executive compensation program to help us achieve this objective. Part of the compensation
package is designed to enable us to assemble and retain a group of executives who have the
collective and individual abilities necessary to run our business to meet these challenges. Other
parts are intended to focus these executives on achieving financial results that enhance the value
of our stockholders investment. At the same time, the compensation structure is flexible, so that
we can meet the changing needs of our business over time and reward executive officers and managers
based on the financial performance of operations under their control.
Process
Our compensation committee meets periodically during the year. In addition, members of the
compensation committee discuss compensation matters with our Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and
Chief Financial Officer (CFO) and among themselves informally outside of meetings. In
establishing the compensation levels for Radio Ones executive officers, the compensation committee
considers a number of qualitative and quantitative factors, including the level and types of
compensation paid to executive officers in similar positions by comparable companies, and an
evaluation of Radio Ones financial performance.
Our CEO provides input into the compensation discussion and makes recommendations to the
compensation committee for annual compensation changes and bonuses for the executive officers and
the appropriateness of additional long-term incentive compensation. We review the compensation
paid to executives at other comparable media companies as a reference point for determining the
competitiveness of our executive compensation. Our peer group of radio broadcasting companies
includes Clear Channel Communications, Inc., Cox Radio, Inc., Emmis Communications Corp., Entercom
Communications Corp. and Saga Communications Inc. The compensation committee has recently retained
a benefits consulting firm to assist it with setting compensation for our executives.
Principal Components of Executive Compensation
|
|
Base salary. Our objective is to pay our executives
compensation that is competitive in the marketplace and reflects
the level of responsibility and performance of the executive, the
executives experience and tenure, the scope and complexity of the
position, the compensation of the executive compared to the
compensation of our other key salaried employees and the
compensation paid for comparable positions by other companies in
the radio broadcast industry, and the performance of our company.
During 2006, we had multiple-year employment agreements with
Scott R. Royster and Linda J. Vilardo that establish their base
salaries and annual increases. We are in the process of
negotiating a new employment agreement for CEO Alfred C. Liggins,
III. The compensation committee believes that entering into these
agreements assists us in retaining our key officers for a certain
period of time and focuses the officers energies on our business.
Notwithstanding the provisions of existing employment agreements,
the annual salaries of the Chairperson, CEO, CFO or Chief
Administrative Officer were not
increased during 2006. |
|
|
|
Bonus. Our executives receive an annual bonus intended to provide
financial incentives for performance and to align the goals and
performance of the executive to our overall objectives. The
compensation committee has
significant flexibility in awarding cash bonuses. The compensation committee may consider
information such as our year-to-year revenue growth compared to that of the radio industry, same
station revenue, operating performance versus our business plan, acquisitions and divestitures,
employee retention, sales and operating initiatives, and stock price performance compared to the
industry peer group. Bonus recommendations for executive officers other than the CEO are
proposed by the CEO, reviewed, revised when appropriate, and approved by the compensation
committee. The compensation committee establishes the bonus level for the CEO. The bonus is
typically paid in the first quarter of each year, based on our performance for the just
completed prior fiscal year. |
|
|
|
Long-term Incentives. We believe that equity ownership by the executives provides
incentive to build stockholder value, aligns the interests of the executives with the
interests of stockholders and serves as motivation for long-term performance. Stock awards
are made pursuant to the Radio One Amended and Restated 1999 Stock Option and Restricted Stock
Grant Plan, which was approved by our stockholders (as amended, the 1999 Stock Plan). We can
grant options or restricted stock to employees, consultants and non-employee directors under
the plan. We may not grant awards of more than 704,050 shares of our Class A common stock or
more than 1,908,099 shares of our Class D common stock to any one participant in any calendar
year. Options may be either non-qualified stock options or incentive stock options, as those
terms are defined in the Internal Revenue Code. Each option will be exercisable in whole or in
installments, as determined at the time of grant, and will expire not more than ten years from
the date of grant. The 1999 Stock Plan enables us to provide and tailor incentive compensation
for the retention of key personnel and to support long-term corporate and business objectives.
In addition, the plan allows us to anticipate and respond to a changing business environment
and competitive compensation practices. The compensation committee administers the plan and
establishes the size of the initial and periodic grants to the CEO and the other executive
officers. |
|
|
|
Upon hiring officers, managers, and certain other key employees, the CEO typically approves
stock option or restricted stock grants under the stock option plan, subject to applicable
vesting periods. The CEO, with the approval of the compensation committee, considers awarding
additional grants to eligible employees under the 1999 Stock Plan, usually on an annual basis,
based on company performance and our objective to provide compensation packages that are
appropriately competitive with compensation offered by other companies in the radio broadcasting
industry. Historically, we have utilized stock options as our primary means of providing
long-term incentive compensation. Management and the compensation committee are currently
assessing the costs and benefits of long term incentive compensation for its employees in light
of the Companys adoption, effective January 1, 2006, of Financial Accounting Standards Board
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment. SFAS
No. 123(R) sets forth accounting requirements for share-based compensation to employees using a
fair-value based method. We did not make a company-wide grant of stock options or other equity
incentive awards in 2006 and none of the executive officers was granted options in 2006. |
Other Benefits and Perquisites
As part of our competitive compensation package to attract and retain talented employees, we
offer retirement, health and other benefits to our employees. Our executive officers participate
in the same benefit plans as our other salaried employees. The only benefit programs offered to
our executive officers either exclusively or with terms different from those offered to other
eligible employees are the following:
|
|
Deferred Compensation. We have a deferred compensation plan
that allows Catherine L. Hughes, our Chairperson, to defer
compensation on a voluntary, non-tax qualified basis. Under the
plan, she may defer up to a specified amount of her base salary
and bonus until death, disability, retirement or termination. The
amount owed to her as deferred compensation is an unfunded and
unsecured general obligation of our Company. Deferred amounts
accrue interest based upon the return earned on a phantom
investment account with a designated brokerage firm established by
Radio One. |
|
|
|
Other Perquisites. We provide few perquisites to our executive
officers. Currently, we provide or reimburse executives for a
company automobile, driver, and various administrative services
including home-based administrative support for our CEO. |
We have set forth the incremental cost of providing these benefits and perquisites to our named
executives in the 2006 Summary Compensation Table in the All Other Compensation column.
Post-termination and Change in Control Benefits
Under the employment agreements that we have entered into with Scott R. Royster and Linda J.
Vilardo, all of their unvested stock options will become fully exercisable immediately upon a
change in control. Upon termination or resignation for any reason with or without cause, each of
these executives is entitled to certain severance benefits including payment of any bonus or other
incentive pay relating to the year preceding the termination that is determined but not yet paid
and a pro rata portion of the retention bonus provided for in his or her employment agreement. In
addition, the executive is entitled to continued medical and dental benefits and payment of his or
her base salary (i) for six months upon termination by us at the end of the employment agreement or
at the executives discretion following a change in control, or (ii) for twelve months upon
termination by us without cause or following a change in control or by the officer for good reason.
There are currently no agreements that provide benefits to Catherine L. Hughes, Alfred C. Liggins,
III or Zemira Jones upon termination or change of control.
Tax Deductibility of Executive Compensation
Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Internal Revenue
Code), imposes limitations upon the federal income tax deductibility of compensation paid to our
CEO and to each of our other four most highly compensated executive officers. Under these
limitations, we may deduct up to $1,000,000 of compensation for such executive officer in any one
year or may deduct all compensation, even if over $1,000,000, if we meet certain specified
conditions (such as certain performance-based compensation that has been approved by stockholders).
As the net cost of compensation, including its deductibility, is weighed by the compensation
committee against many factors in determining executive compensation, the compensation committee
may determine that it is appropriate and in the Radio Ones best interest to authorize compensation
that is not deductible, whether by reason of Section 162(m) or otherwise.

Exhibit 99.4
CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE
We review all transactions and relationships in which Radio One and our directors and
executive officers or their immediate family members are participants to determine whether such
persons have a direct or indirect material interest. In addition, our Code of Ethics requires our
directors, executive officers and principal financial officers to report to the board or the audit
committee any situation that could be perceived as a conflict of interest. Once a related person
transaction has been identified, the board of directors may appoint a special committee of the
board to review and, if appropriate, approve such transaction. The special committee will
consider the material facts, such as the nature of the related persons interest in the
transaction, the terms of the transaction, the importance of the transaction to the related person
and to us, whether the transaction is on terms no less favorable than terms generally available to
an unaffiliated third party under the same or similar circumstances, and other matters it deems
appropriate. As required under the SEC rules, we disclose in the proxy statement related party
transactions that are directly or indirectly material to us or a related person.
WDBZ-AM Cincinnati
In March 2007, Radio One signed an agreement to acquire the assets of WDBZ-AM, a Cincinnati
radio station, from Blue Chip Communications, Inc. (Blue Chip) for approximately $2.6 million in
seller financing. Blue Chip is wholly owned by Mr. L. Ross Love, a director of Radio One, who
until August 2006 was also a member of Radio Ones audit committee. The transaction was approved
by an independent committee appointed by the board of directors, comprised of Mr. D. Geoffrey
Armstrong and Mr. Brian McNeill, both independent directors. Radio One retained the firm of Bond
& Pecaro to provide a fair value appraisal for the station. Bond & Pecaro appraised the station
for $3.4 million as of October 2006. Radio One continues to operate WDBZ-AM under a local
management agreement for no annual fee pending completion of the purchase, which is expected to
take place in the second half of 2007.
WDMK-FM Transmitter
In September 2006, Bell Broadcasting Company, a Radio One subsidiary, purchased the
transmitter site for WDMK-FM for $925,000 from American Signaling Corporation, a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Syndicated Communications Venture Partners II, L.P. (Syncom Partners). Terry L.
Jones is a general partner of Syncom Partners, with a 6.7% equity interest, and is also a member of
Radio Ones board of directors. The terms of the transaction were approved by an independent
committee appointed by the board of directors. Prior to the purchase, Radio One leased the
transmitter site from Syncom Partners under terms that we believe were not materially different
than if the agreement were with an unaffiliated third party. The annual rent for the tower space
was $75,000 per year, and rent paid in 2006 was $50,000.
Music One, Inc.
Ms. Hughes and Mr. Liggins own a music recording company called Music One, Inc. (Music One).
In 2006, Music One paid Radio One a total of $169,000 for office space and administrative services
provided to Music One in 2005 and 2006. Radio One paid $5,900 to or on behalf of Music One in
2006, primarily for a market event and travel reimbursement. Radio One sometimes promotes the
recorded music product of Music One. Based on the cross-promotional value received by Radio One,
we believe that the provision of such promotion is fair to Radio One; there were no cash, trade or
no-charge orders placed by Music One in 2006.
Executive Officers Loans
In 1999, we extended an unsecured loan to Scott R. Royster in the amount of $87,564, evidenced
by a demand promissory note, at an annual interest rate of 5.56%. As of December 31, 2006, the
aggregate outstanding principal balance and accrued interest on this loan was approximately
$133,000. The purpose of the loan was to pay Mr. Roysters tax liability with respect to a
restricted stock grant.
In connection with his employment agreement, Mr. Royster agreed to purchase from us and we
agreed to sell to him 333,334 shares of Class A common stock and 666,666 shares of Class D common
stock, each for a purchase price of $7.00 per share. The purchase price for such shares was funded
by a loan from us in 2000, at a variable rate (based on
the applicable market rate published by the Internal Revenue Service), evidenced by a full
recourse promissory note maturing in 2010. As of December 31, 2006, the outstanding principal
balance and accrued interest on the loan was approximately $1.6 million.
In 1999, we extended an unsecured loan to Ms. Mary Catherine Sneed, former Chief Operating
Officer, in the amount of $262,539, at an annual interest rate of 5.56%. The purpose of the loan
was to pay the tax liability with respect to incentive grants of Radio One of Atlanta, Inc. stock
received by Ms. Sneed. In July 2006, Ms. Sneed paid $407,000 in cash to satisfy this loan in full,
after she left the Company.
Controlled Company Exemption
We are a controlled company under rules governing the listing of our securities on the
NASDAQ Stock Market because more than 50% of our voting power is held by Catherine L. Hughes, our
Chairperson of the Board and Secretary, and Alfred C. Liggins, III, our CEO, President and
Treasurer. See Exhibit 99.3,Security Ownership of BeneficialOwners and Management above.
Therefore, we are not subject to NASDAQ Stock Market listing rules that would otherwise require us
to have (i) a majority of independent directors on the board; (ii) a compensation committee
composed solely of independent directors; (iii) a nominating committee composed solely of
independent directors; (iv) compensation of our executive officers determined by a majority of the
independent directors or a compensation committee composed solely of independent directors; and (v)
director nominees selected, or recommended for the boards selection, either by a majority of the
independent directors or a nominating committee composed solely of independent directors.

Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures
The audit committee has adopted a policy that requires advance approval of all audit,
audit-related, tax services, and other services performed for Radio One by Ernst & Young LLP. This
policy provides for pre-approval by the audit committee of specifically defined audit and non-audit
services. The audit committee has delegated to the Chairperson of the audit committee authority to
approve permitted services up to a certain amount provided that the Chairperson reports any
decisions to the audit committee at its next scheduled meeting.
