 Safe Harbor Statement and Non GAAP Financial Measures  SAFE HARBOR STATEMENTThis presentation and our officers and representatives may from time to time make, "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the safe-harbour provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements may concern Urban One, Inc.'s (the "Company") business strategy, the Company’s capital plan, trends, and the future performance of the Company. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict and many of which are outside of our control. Therefore, you should not rely on any of these forward-looking statements.  Any forward-looking statement made by us in this presentation is based only on information currently available to us and speaks only as of the date on which it is made. We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether written or oral, that may be made from time to time, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise. NON GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURESIn addition to financial results prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, or GAAP, this presentation may also contain certain non-GAAP financial measures. Management uses these non-GAAP measures to evaluate the Company’s performance and in planning for future periods. Management believes that adjusting GAAP measures by excluding or including certain items is helpful to investors and analysts who may wish to use some or all of this information to analyze the Company’s current performance, prospects, and valuation. It is important to note these non-GAAP measures involve judgment by management and should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, the most directly comparable measures calculated and prepared in accordance with GAAP. Investors and potential investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures with their most direct comparable GAAP financial measures included as an appendix to this presentation.
