Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This document contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These forward-looking statements do not relay historical facts, but rather reflect our current expectations concerning future operations, results and events. All statements other than statements of historical fact are “forward-looking statements” including any projections of earnings, revenues or other financial items; any statements of the plans, strategies and objectives of management for future operations; any statements concerning proposed new services or developments; any statements regarding future economic conditions or performance; any statements of belief; and any statements of assumptions underlying any of the foregoing. You can identify some of these forward-looking statements by our use of words such as “anticipates,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “seeks,” “likely,” “may,” “estimates” and similar expressions.  You can also identify a forward-looking statement in that such statements discuss matters in a way that anticipates operations, results or events that have not already occurred but rather will or may occur in future periods.  We cannot guarantee that we will achieve any forward-looking plans, intentions, results, operations or expectations.  Because these statements apply to future events, they are subject to risks and uncertainties, some of which are beyond our control that could cause actual results to differ materially from those forecasted or anticipated in the forward-looking statements.  These risks, uncertainties and factors include (in no particular order), but are not limited to:

• the effects of continued and prolonged global economic weakness, credit and equity market volatility, high unemployment and continued fluctuations in the U.S. and other world economies may have on our business and financial condition and the business and financial conditions of our advertisers;

• our high degree of leverage and potential inability to refinance certain portions of our debt or finance other strategic transactions given fluctuations in market conditions;

• continued fluctuations in the U.S. economy and the local economies of the markets in which we operate could negatively impact our ability to meet our cash needs and our ability to maintain compliance with our debt covenants;

• fluctuations in the demand for advertising across our various media given the current economic environment;

• risks associated with the implementation and execution of our business diversification strategy;

• increased competition in our markets and in the radio broadcasting and media industries;

• regulation by the Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) relative to maintaining our broadcasting licenses, enacting media ownership rules and enforcing of indecency rules;

• changes in our key personnel and on-air talent;

• increases in the costs of our programming, including on-air talent and content acquisitions costs;

• financial losses that may be incurred due to impairment charges against our broadcasting licenses, goodwill and other intangible assets, particularly in light of the current economic environment;

• increased competition from new media and technologies;

• the impact of our acquisitions, dispositions and similar transactions; and

• other factors mentioned in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) including the factors discussed in detail in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended on Form 10-K/A, for the year ended December 31, 2012.

You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which reflect our views as of the date of this report. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements because of new information, future events or otherwise.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.  ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

(a) Organization

 Radio One, Inc. (a Delaware corporation referred to as “Radio One”) and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) is an urban-oriented, multi-media company that primarily targets African-American and urban consumers. Our core business is our radio broadcasting franchise that is the largest radio broadcasting operation that primarily targets African-American and urban listeners. We currently own and/or operate 54 broadcast stations located in 16 urban markets in the United States.  While our primary source of revenue is the sale of local and national advertising for broadcast on our radio stations, our strategy is to operate the premier multi-media entertainment and information content provider targeting African-American and urban consumers. Thus, we have diversified our revenue streams by making acquisitions and investments in other complementary media properties. Our other media interests include our approximately 51.3% controlling ownership interest in TV One, LLC (“TV One”), an African-American targeted cable television network that we own with an affiliate of Comcast Corporation; our 80.0% controlling ownership interest in Reach Media, Inc. (“Reach Media”), which operates the Tom Joyner Morning Show and our other syndicated programming assets; and our ownership of Interactive One, LLC (“Interactive One”), an online platform serving the African-American community through social content, news, information, and entertainment websites, including News One, UrbanDaily and HelloBeautiful and online social networking websites, including BlackPlanet, MiGente and Asian Avenue. Through our national multi-media presence, we provide advertisers with a unique and powerful delivery mechanism to the African-American and urban audiences.  

As of June 2011, our remaining Boston radio station was made the subject of a local marketing agreement (“LMA”) whereby we have made available, for a fee, air time on this station to another party. In addition, beginning as of November 1, 2012, our Columbus, Ohio radio station, WJKR-FM (The Jack, 98.9 FM) was also made the subject of an LMA, and on February 15, 2013, the Company sold that station’s assets.  The remaining assets and liabilities of stations sold and stations that we do not operate as they are the subject of an LMA have been classified as discontinued operations as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, and the results from operations of those stations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, have been reclassified as discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

As part of our consolidated financial statements, consistent with our financial reporting structure and how the Company currently manages its businesses, we have provided selected financial information on the Company’s four reportable segments: (i) Radio Broadcasting; (ii) Reach Media; (iii) Internet; and (iv) Cable Television. (See Note 9 – Segment Information.)

(b)  Interim Financial Statements

The interim consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In management’s opinion, the interim financial data presented herein include all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations.

Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year. This Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended on Form 10-K/A.

(c)  Financial Instruments

Financial instruments as of June 30, 2013, and December 31, 2012, consisted of cash and cash equivalents, investments, trade accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, long-term debt and redeemable noncontrolling interest. The carrying amounts approximated fair value for each of these financial instruments as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, except for the Company’s outstanding senior subordinated notes. The 6³/₈% Senior Subordinated Notes which were due and paid in full in February 2013 had a carrying value of $747,000 and a fair value of approximately $740,000 as of December 31, 2012. The 12¹/₂%/15% Senior Subordinated Notes due May 2016 had a carrying value of approximately $327.0 million and a fair value of approximately $327.0 million as of June 30, 2013, and a carrying value of approximately $327.0 million and a fair value of approximately $293.5 million as of December 31, 2012. The fair values, classified as Level 2, were determined based on the trading values of these instruments in an inactive market as of the reporting date. The Company’s 10% Senior Secured TV One Notes due March 2016 are classified as Level 3 since they are not market traded financial instruments.

(d)  Revenue Recognition

Within our Radio Broadcasting and Reach Media segments, the Company recognizes revenue for broadcast advertising when a commercial is broadcast and is reported, net of agency and outside sales representative commissions, in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 605, “Revenue Recognition.”  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. For our Radio Broadcasting and Reach Media segments, agency and outside sales representative commissions were approximately $8.3 million and $9.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Agency and outside sales representative commissions were approximately $15.2 million and $16.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Interactive One generates the majority of the Company’s internet revenue, and derives such revenue principally from advertising services on non-radio station branded websites, including advertising aimed at diversity recruiting. Advertising services include the sale of banner and sponsorship advertisements.  Advertising revenue is recognized either as impressions (the number of times advertisements appear in viewed pages) are delivered, when “click through” purchases are made or leads are generated, or ratably over the contract period, where applicable.

TV One, the driver of revenues in our Cable Television segment, derives advertising revenue from the sale of television air time to advertisers and recognizes revenue when the advertisements are run. TV One also receives affiliate fees and records revenue during the term of various affiliation agreements based on the most recent subscriber counts reported by the applicable affiliate.

(e) Launch Support

TV One has entered into certain affiliate agreements requiring various payments by TV One for launch support. Launch assets are assets used to initiate carriage under new affiliation agreements and are amortized over the term of the respective contracts. Amortization is recorded as a reduction to revenue to the extent that revenue is recognized from the vendor, and any excess amortization is recorded as launch support amortization expense. The weighted-average amortization period for launch support is approximately 10.9 years at each of June 30, 2013, and December 31, 2012. The remaining weighted-average amortization period for launch support is 1.9 years and 2.4 years as of June 30, 2013, and December 31, 2012, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, launch asset amortization of approximately $2.5 million and $5.0 million, respectively, was recorded as a reduction to revenue. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, launch asset amortization of approximately $2.4 million and $4.9 million, respectively, was recorded as a reduction to revenue.

(f)  Barter Transactions

The Company provides advertising time in exchange for programming content and certain services and accounts for these exchanges in accordance with ASC 605, “Revenue Recognition.” The terms of these exchanges generally permit the Company to preempt such time in favor of advertisers who purchase time in exchange for cash. The Company includes the value of such exchanges in both 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 three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, barter transaction revenues were $558,000 and $711,000, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, barter transaction revenues were approximately $1.2 million and $1.4 million, respectively. Additionally, barter transaction costs were reflected in programming and technical expenses and selling, general and administrative expenses of $540,000 and $670,000 and $18,000 and $41,000, for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, barter transaction costs were reflected in programming and technical expenses and selling, general and administrative expenses of approximately $1.1 million and $1.4 million and $86,000 and $83,000, respectively.

(g) Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of shares of common stock (Classes A, B, C and D) outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of shares of common stock plus the effect of dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method.  The Company’s potentially dilutive securities include stock options and restricted stock. Diluted earnings per share considers the impact of potentially dilutive securities except in periods in which there is a net loss, as the inclusion of the potentially dilutive common shares would have an anti-dilutive effect.

10

The following table sets forth the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share from continuing operations (in thousands, except share and per share data):

	Three Months Ended  June 30,				Six Months Ended  June 30,

Net (loss) income attributable to common stockholders per share - diluted	$	(0.29)	$	0.85	$	(0.67)	$	(0.73)

All stock options and restricted stock awards were excluded from the diluted calculation for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, and for the six months ended June 30, 2012, as their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive. The following table summarizes the potential common shares excluded from the diluted calculation.

(h) Fair Value Measurements

We report our financial and non-financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring and non-recurring basis under the provisions of ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures.” ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.

11

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

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

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

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

As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the fair values of our financial assets and liabilities are categorized as follows:

	Total		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
	(Unaudited)
	(In thousands)
As of June 30, 2013
Assets subject to fair value measurement:
Corporate debt securities (a)	$	1,042	$	1,042	$	—	$	—
Mutual funds (a)		2,223		2,223		—		—
Total	$	3,265	$	3,265	$	—	$	—
Liabilities subject to fair value measurement:
Incentive award plan (b)	$	4,739	$	—	$	—	$	4,739
Employment agreement award (c)		12,610		—		—		12,610
Total	$	17,349	$	—	$	—	$	17,349
Mezzanine equity subject to fair value measurement:
Redeemable noncontrolling interests (d)	$	11,865	$	—	$	—	$	11,865
As of December 31, 2012
Assets subject to fair value measurement:
Corporate debt securities (a)	$	192	$	192	$	—	$	—
Mutual funds (a)		1,502		1,502		—		—
Total	$	1,694	$	1,694	$	—	$	—
Liabilities subject to fair value measurement:
Incentive award plan (b)	$	5,345	$	—	$	—	$	5,345
Employment agreement award (c)		11,374		—		—		11,374
Total	$	16,719	$	—	$	—	$	16,719
Mezzanine equity subject to fair value measurement:
Redeemable noncontrolling interests (d)	$	12,853	$	—	$	—	$	12,853

(a)    Where quoted market prices are available in an active market, securities are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are estimated using pricing models, quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics or discounted cash flows.

(b)   These balances are measured based on the estimated enterprise fair value of TV One. Significant inputs to the discounted cash flow analysis include forecasted operating results, discount rate and a terminal value. A third-party valuation firm assisted the Company in estimating TV One’s fair value. Significant inputs to the discounted cash flow analysis include forecasted operating results, discount rate and a terminal value. There are specific unit holders for which the enterprise fair value is fixed.

12

(c)  Pursuant to an employment agreement (the “Employment Agreement”) executed in April 2008, the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) is eligible to receive an award amount equal to 8% of any proceeds from distributions or other liquidity events in excess of the return of the Company’s aggregate investment in TV One. The Company reviews the factors underlying this award at the end of each quarter including the valuation of TV One and an assessment of the probability that the employment agreement will be renewed and contain this provision. There are probability factors included in the calculation of the award related to the likelihood that the award will be realized. The Company’s obligation to pay the award will be triggered only after the Company’s recovery of the aggregate amount of its capital contribution in TV One and only upon actual receipt of distributions of cash or marketable securities or proceeds from a liquidity event with respect to the Company’s membership interest in TV One. The CEO was fully vested in the award upon execution of the Employment Agreement, and the award lapses if the CEO voluntarily leaves the Company or is terminated for cause. A third-party valuation firm assisted the Company in estimating TV One’s fair value. Significant inputs to the discounted cash flow analysis include forecasted operating results, discount rate and a terminal value. The terms of the Employment Agreement remain in effect including eligibility for the TV One award.

(d)  The redeemable noncontrolling interest in Reach Media is measured at fair value using a discounted cash flow methodology. A third-party valuation firm assisted the Company in estimating the fair value. Significant inputs to the discounted cash flow analysis include forecasted operating results, discount rate and a terminal value.

The following table presents the changes in Level 3 liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012:

	Incentive Award Plan		Employment Agreement Award		Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests
	(In thousands)
Balance at December 31, 2012	$	5,345	$	11,374	$	12,853

The amount of total losses for the period included in earnings attributable to the change in unrealized losses relating to assets and liabilities still held at the reporting date	$	—	$	(693)	$	—

13

Gains (losses) included in earnings were recorded in the consolidated statement of operations as corporate selling, general and administrative expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012.

For Level 3 assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis, the significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurements were as follows:

		Significant	As of June 30, 2013			As of  December 31,  2012			As of June 30, 2012
Level 3 liabilities	Valuation Technique	Unobservable Inputs	Significant Unobservable Input Value
Incentive award plan	Discounted Cash Flow	Discount Rate		10.8	%		10.8	%		11.5	%
Incentive award plan	Discounted Cash Flow	Long-term Growth Rate		3.0	%		3.0	%		3.0	%
Employment agreement award	Discounted Cash Flow	Discount Rate		10.8	%		10.8	%		11.5	%
Employment agreement award	Discounted Cash Flow	Long-term Growth Rate		3.0	%		3.0	%		3.0	%
Redeemable noncontrolling interest	Discounted Cash Flow	Discount Rate		13.5	%		11.5	%		12.5	%
Redeemable noncontrolling interest	Discounted Cash Flow	Long-term Growth Rate		1.5	%		2.0	%		2.5	%

Any significant increases or decreases in discount rate or long-term growth rate inputs could result in significantly higher or lower fair value measurements.

Certain assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis using Level 3 inputs as defined in ASC 820.  These assets are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to fair value adjustments only in certain circumstances.  Included in this category are goodwill, radio broadcasting licenses and other intangible assets, net, that are written down to fair value when they are determined to be impaired, as well as content assets that are periodically written down to net realizable value. The Company recorded an impairment charge of approximately $9.8 million related to our Philadelphia, Cincinnati and Cleveland radio broadcasting licenses during the three months ended June 30, 2013. The Company recorded an impairment charge of approximately $11.2 million related to our Philadelphia, Cincinnati and Cleveland radio broadcasting licenses during the six months ended June 30, 2013. The Company recorded impairment of $313,000 related to our Charlotte radio broadcasting licenses during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012. See Note 4 – Goodwill and Radio Broadcasting Licenses.

 (i) Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-04, which provides a consistent definition of fair value and ensures that the fair value measurement and disclosure requirements are similar between GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. ASU 2011-04 changes certain fair value measurement principles and enhances the disclosure requirements particularly for Level 3 fair value measurements. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2012, and it did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-05, “Presentation of Comprehensive Income,” which was subsequently modified in December 2011 by ASU 2011-12, “Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to the Presentation of Reclassifications of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05.” This ASU amends existing presentation and disclosure requirements concerning comprehensive income, most significantly by requiring that comprehensive income be presented with net income in a continuous financial statement, or in a separate but consecutive financial statement. The provisions of this ASU (as modified) are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements, other than presentation and disclosure.

In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-08, which provides companies with an option to perform a qualitative assessment that may allow them to skip the two-step impairment test. ASU 2011-08 amends existing guidance by giving an entity the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If this is the case, companies will need to perform a more detailed two-step goodwill impairment test which is used to identify potential goodwill impairments and to measure the amount of goodwill impairment losses to be recognized, if any. ASU 2011-08 is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2012, and it did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

14

In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-02, which provides companies the option to perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired rather than calculating the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset. ASU 2012-02 is effective prospectively for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2013, and it did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-02, “Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income,” which adds new disclosure requirements for items reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income. ASU 2013-02 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2012. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2013, and it did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

 (j) Redeemable noncontrolling interest

Redeemable noncontrolling interests are interests in subsidiaries that are redeemable outside of the Company’s control either for cash and/or registered Class D Common Stock of Radio One. These interests are classified as mezzanine equity and measured at the greater of estimated redemption value at the end of each reporting period or the historical cost basis of the noncontrolling interests adjusted for cumulative earnings allocations.  The resulting increases or decreases in the estimated redemption amount are affected by corresponding charges against retained earnings, or in the absence of retained earnings, additional paid-in-capital.

(k) Investments

Investment Securities

Investments consist primarily of corporate fixed maturity securities and mutual funds.

Investments with original maturities in excess of three months and less than one year are classified as short-term investments. Long-term investments have original maturities in excess of one year.

Debt securities are classified as “available-for-sale” and reported at fair value. Investments in available-for-sale fixed maturity securities are classified as either current or noncurrent assets based on their contractual maturities. Fixed maturity securities are carried at estimated fair value based on quoted market prices for the same or similar instruments. Investment income is recognized when earned and reported net of investment expenses. Unrealized gains and losses are excluded from earnings and are reported as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) until realized, unless the losses are deemed to be other than temporary. Realized gains or losses, including any provision for other-than-temporary declines in value, are included in the statements of operations. For purposes of computing realized gains and losses, the specific-identification method of determining cost was used.

Evaluating Investments for Other than Temporary Impairments

The Company periodically performs evaluations, on a lot-by-lot and security-by-security basis, of its investment holdings in accordance with its impairment policy to evaluate whether any declines in the fair value of investments are other than temporary. This evaluation consists of a review of several factors, including but not limited to: length of time and extent that a security has been in an unrealized loss position, the existence of an event that would impair the issuer’s future earnings potential, and the near-term prospects for recovery of the market value of a security. The FASB has issued guidance for recognition and presentation of other than temporary impairment (“OTTI”), or FASB OTTI guidance. Accordingly, any credit-related impairment of fixed maturity securities that the Company does not intend to sell, and is not likely to be required to sell, is recognized in the consolidated statements of operations, with the noncredit-related impairment recognized in accumulated other comprehensive loss.

The Company believes that it has adequately reviewed its investment securities for OTTI and that its investment securities are carried at fair value. However, over time, the economic and market environment (including any ratings change for any such securities, including US treasuries and corporate bonds) may provide additional insight regarding the fair value of certain securities, which could change management’s judgment regarding OTTI. This could result in realized losses relating to other than temporary declines being charged against future income. Given the judgments involved, there is a continuing risk that further declines in fair value may occur and material OTTI may be recorded in future periods.

15

(l) Content Assets

TV One has entered into contracts to acquire entertainment programming rights and programs from distributors and producers. The license periods granted in these contracts generally run from one year to perpetuity. Contract payments are made in installments over terms that are generally shorter than the contract period. Each contract is recorded as an asset and a liability at an amount equal to its gross contractual commitment when the license period begins and the program is available for its first airing.

Program rights are recorded at the lower of amortized cost or estimated net realizable value. Program rights are amortized based on the greater of the usage of the program or term of license. Estimated net realizable values are based on the estimated revenues directly associated with the program materials and related expenses. The Company recorded additional amortization expense of $0 and $508,000 as a result of evaluating its contracts for recoverability for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. All produced and licensed content is classified as a long-term asset, except for the portion of the unamortized content balance that will be amortized within one year which is classified as a current asset.

(m) Derivatives

ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging,” establishes disclosure requirements related to derivative instruments and hedging activities with the intent to provide users of financial statements with an enhanced understanding of: (i) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments; (ii) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for and its related interpretations; and (iii) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. ASC 815 requires qualitative disclosures about objectives and strategies for using derivatives, quantitative disclosures about the fair value of gains and losses on derivative instruments, and disclosures about credit-risk-related contingent features in derivative instruments.

The Company recognizes all derivatives at fair value, whether designated in hedging relationships or not, on the balance sheet as either an asset or liability. The accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, depends on the intended use of the derivative and the resulting designation. If the derivative is designated as a fair value hedge, the changes in the fair value of the derivative and the hedged item are recognized in the statement of operations. If the derivative is designated as a cash flow hedge, changes in the fair value of the derivative are recorded in other comprehensive income and are recognized in the statement of operations when the hedged item affects net income. As of June 30, 2013, the Company has no such instruments. If a derivative does not qualify as a hedge, it is marked to fair value through the statement of operations. 

As of June 30, 2013, the Company was party to an Employment Agreement executed in April 2008 with the CEO. Pursuant to the Employment Agreement, the CEO is eligible to receive an award amount equal to 8% of any proceeds from distributions or other liquidity events in excess of the return of the Company’s aggregate investment in TV One. The Company estimated the fair value of the award at June 30, 2013, to be approximately $12.6 million, and accordingly, adjusted its liability to this amount. The Company’s obligation to pay the award will be triggered only after the Company’s recovery of the aggregate amount of its capital contribution in TV One and only upon actual receipt of distributions of cash or marketable securities or proceeds from a liquidity event with respect to the Company’s membership interest in TV One. The CEO was fully vested in the award upon execution of the Employment Agreement, and the award lapses if the CEO voluntarily leaves the Company, or is terminated for cause. The terms of the Employment Agreement remain in effect including eligibility for the TV One award.

(n) Correction of Prior Period Misclassifications

In connection with preparing the quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2013, the Company identified misclassifications in its previously filed financial statements related to the condensed consolidating financial statements of guarantors in the notes to its previously filed financial statements in its quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2013 (the “First Quarter 10-Q”) and in its annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 (the “2012 10-K”). The misclassifications primarily relate to: (i) including TV One in the “Radio One, Inc.” column in the condensed consolidating financial statements in each of the 2012 10-K and the First Quarter 10-Q although TV One is a non-guarantor subsidiary of the Company under its outstanding notes registered under the Securities Act of 1933; (ii) including Reach Media, Inc. (“Reach Media”) in the “Radio One, Inc.” column in the condensed consolidating financial statements in the 2012 10-K although Reach Media was a non-guarantor subsidiary for that reporting period; and (iii) after Reach Media became a guarantor under the Company’s outstanding registered notes on February 14, 2013, including Reach Media in the “Wholly-Owned Guarantor Subsidiaries” column in the condensed consolidating financial statements in the First Quarter 10-Q and the comparative period in 2012 rather than a separate column for “non-wholly owned guarantor subsidiaries”. Additionally, the Company determined separate financial statements for Reach Media should have been included in the First Quarter 10-Q because it is not wholly owned by the Company. The accompanying condensed consolidating financial statements for the current period reflect these corrections. In consultation with its audit committee, management has concluded it will amend the previously filed financial statements in its 2012 10-K and First Quarter 2013 10-Q to reflect these corrections in those filings. These changes have no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, including its consolidated balance sheets, consolidated statements of operations, consolidated statements of comprehensive income, consolidated statements of changes in equity or consolidated statements of cash flows for any previously reported period.

Also in connection with preparing the quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2013, the Company identified an immaterial misclassification related to the cash flow statement presentation in its previously filed interim consolidated financial statements as of and for the three month period ended March 31, 2013. The Company improperly classified proceeds from the sale of its Columbus station (WJKR-FM) as cash flows from discontinued operations within operating activities rather than as a source of cash flows from investing activities. In connection with the filing of its Form 10-Q/A as of and for the three month period ended March 31, 2013, the Company intends to correct this misclassification. The impact on the financial statements was to overstate cash flows from operating activities by approximately $4.0 million and understate cash flows from investing activities by approximately $4.0 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2013. The misclassification had no effect on operating cash flows from continuing operations. Further, the misclassification had no effect on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet, consolidated statement of operations, consolidated statement of comprehensive loss or consolidated statement of changes in equity as of and for the three month period ended March 31, 2013.

2.  ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSITIONS:

On February 15, 2013, the Company closed on the sale of the assets of its Columbus, Ohio radio station, WJKR-FM (The Jack, 98.9 FM) to Salem Media of Ohio, Inc., a subsidiary of Salem Communications (“Salem”).  The Company sold the assets of WJKR for $4 million and recognized a gain on the sale of $893,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2013. 

On December 31, 2012, the Company through its wholly-owned subsidiary Radio One Media Holdings, LLC (“ROMH”) completed the purchase of additional shares of Reach Media from certain minority shareholders.  In addition to $2 million in cash consideration paid to increase the Company’s ownership in Reach Media from approximately 53.5% to 80%, effective January 1, 2013, the Radio Broadcasting segment contributed the assets and operations of its Syndication One urban programming line-up to Reach Media. We consolidated our syndication operations within Reach Media to leverage that platform to create the leading syndicated radio network targeted to the African-American audience. In connection with the consolidation, we shifted our syndicated programming sales to an internal sales force operating out of Reach Media.

On July 18, 2012, we entered into an LMA with Gaffney Broadcasting, Incorporated (“Gaffney”). Beginning as of August 27, 2012, we began to broadcast programs produced, owned or acquired by Radio One on Gaffney’s South Carolina radio station, WOSF-FM (previously WNOW-FM). We pay certain operating costs of WOSF-FM, and in exchange we retain all revenues from the sale of the advertising within the programming we provide. The LMA continues for 18 months or until our consummation of an acquisition of the station under a stock purchase agreement (the “SPA”) with the stockholders of Gaffney. The closing of the acquisition under the SPA is subject to certain conditions including but not limited to approval by the Federal Communications Commission (the “FCC”) of the transfer of Gaffney’s FCC licenses.

On October 20, 2011, we entered into an LMA with WGPR, Inc. (“WGPR”). Pursuant to the LMA, beginning as of October 24, 2011, we began to broadcast programs produced, owned or acquired by Radio One on WGPR’s Detroit radio station, WGPR-FM. We pay certain operating costs of WGPR-FM, and in exchange we will retain all revenues from the sale of the advertising within the programming we provide. The LMA continues until December 31, 2014, and we have two successive 1-year options for a 4th year and a 5th year that would extend the term until December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2016, respectively. Under the terms of the LMA, WGPR has also granted us certain rights of first negotiation and first refusal, with respect to the sale of WGPR-FM by WGPR and with respect to any potential time brokerage agreement for WGPR-FM covering any time period subsequent to the term of the LMA.

3.  DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS:

As of June 2011, our remaining Boston radio station was made the subject of an LMA whereby we made available, for a fee, air time on this station to another party. As of November 2012, our Columbus, Ohio radio station operating under the call letters WJKR was made the subject of an LMA and was subsequently sold on February 15, 2013. The remaining assets and liabilities of stations sold and stations that we do not operate as they are the subject of an LMA have been reclassified as discontinued operations as of June 30, 2013, and December 31, 2012. Thus, stations sold and stations that we do not operate that are the subject of an LMA results from operations for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, have been reclassified as discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

The following table summarizes the operating results for the stations sold and stations that we do not operate that are the subject of an LMA and are classified as discontinued operations for all periods presented:

 4.  GOODWILL AND RADIO BROADCASTING LICENSES:

Impairment Testing

In the past, we have made acquisitions whereby a significant amount of the purchase price was allocated to radio broadcasting licenses, goodwill and other intangible assets. In accordance with ASC 350, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other,” we do not amortize our radio broadcasting licenses and goodwill. Instead, we perform a test for impairment annually or on an interim basis when events or changes in circumstances or other conditions suggest impairment may have occurred. Other intangible assets continue to be amortized on a straight-line basis over their useful lives. We perform our annual impairment test as of October 1 of each year.

Valuation of Broadcasting Licenses

We utilize the services of a third-party valuation firm to provide independent analysis when evaluating the fair value of our radio broadcasting licenses and reporting units. Fair value is estimated to be the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. We use the income approach to test for impairment of radio broadcasting licenses. A projection period of 10 years is used, as that is the time horizon in which operators and investors generally expect to recover their investments. When evaluating our radio broadcasting licenses for impairment, the testing is done at the unit of accounting level as determined by ASC 350, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other.” In our case, each unit of accounting is a clustering of radio stations into one of the 16 geographical radio markets that we own and/or operate.  Broadcasting license fair values are based on the estimated after-tax discounted future cash flows of the applicable unit of accounting assuming an initial hypothetical start-up operation which possesses FCC licenses as the only asset. Over time, it is assumed the operation acquires other tangible assets such as advertising and programming contracts, employment agreements and going concern value, and matures into an average performing operation in a specific radio market. The income approach model incorporates several variables, including, but not limited to: (i) radio market revenue estimates and growth projections; (ii) estimated market share and revenue for the hypothetical participant; (iii) likely media competition within the market; (iv) estimated start-up costs and losses incurred in the early years; (v) estimated profit margins and cash flows based on market size and station type; (vi) anticipated capital expenditures; (vii) probable future terminal values; (viii) an effective tax rate assumption; and (ix) a discount rate based on the weighted-average cost of capital for the radio broadcast industry. In calculating the discount rate, we considered: (i) the cost of equity, which includes estimates of the risk-free return, the long-term market return, small stock risk premiums and industry beta; (ii) the cost of debt, which includes estimates for corporate borrowing rates and tax rates; and (iii) estimated average percentages of equity and debt in capital structures. Since our annual October 2012 assessment, we have not made any changes to the methodology for valuing broadcasting licenses.

19

During the first and second quarters of 2013, the total market revenue growth for certain markets in which we operate was below that used in our 2012 annual impairment testing. We deemed that to be an impairment indicator that warranted interim impairment testing of certain market’s radio broadcasting licenses, which we performed as of March 31, 2013, and June 30, 2013. The Company recorded an impairment charge of approximately $1.4 million related to our Cincinnati FCC radio broadcasting licenses during the first quarter of 2013. In addition, the Company recorded an impairment charge of approximately $9.8 million related to our Philadelphia, Cincinnati and Cleveland radio broadcasting licenses during the second quarter of 2013. The remaining radio broadcasting licenses that were tested during the second quarter of 2013 were not impaired.

During the second quarter of 2012, the total market revenue growth for certain markets was below that used in our 2011 annual impairment testing. We deemed that to be an impairment indicator that warranted interim impairment testing of certain of our radio broadcasting licenses, which we performed as of June 30, 2012. The Company recorded an impairment charge of $313,000 related to our Charlotte radio broadcasting licenses. The remaining radio broadcasting licenses that were tested during the second quarter of 2012 were not impaired. The Company completed its annual impairment testing as of October 1, 2012, and concluded that our radio broadcasting licenses were not impaired. Below are some of the key assumptions used in the income approach model for estimating broadcasting licenses fair values for all annual impairment assessments and interim impairment assessments where impairment was identified, since January 2012.

	June 30,			October 1,			March 31,			June 30,
Radio Broadcasting Licenses	2012 (a)			2012			2013 (a)			2013 (a)

Year 1 Market Revenue Growth Rate Range		1.0% -3.0	%		1.0% -2.0	%		1.0	%		2.0	%
Long-term Market Revenue Growth Rate Range (Years 6 – 10)		1.0% - 2.0	%		1.0% -2.0	%		1.5	%		1.5% -2.0	%
Mature Market Share Range		5.8% - 15.6	%		0.7% - 27.4	%		8.6	%		8.6% - 15.1	%
Operating Profit Margin Range		29.1% - 48.0	%		19.6% - 47.7	%		31.4	%		32.6% - 34.4	%

(a) Reflects only key assumptions used in the interim testing for certain units of accounting.

Valuation of Goodwill

The impairment testing of goodwill is performed at the reporting unit level. In testing for the impairment of goodwill, with the assistance of a third-party valuation firm, we primarily rely on the income approach. The approach involves a 10-year model with similar variables as described above for broadcasting licenses, except that the discounted cash flows are generally based on the Company’s estimated and projected market revenue, market share and operating performance for its reporting units, instead of those for a hypothetical participant. The Company is not applying the qualitative assessment as allowed by ASU 2011-08. We follow a two-step process to evaluate if a potential impairment exists for goodwill. The first step of the process involves estimating the fair value of each reporting unit. If the reporting unit’s fair value is less than its carrying value, a second step is performed as per the guidance of ASC 805-10, “Business Combinations,” to allocate the fair value of the reporting unit to the individual assets and liabilities of the reporting unit in order to determine the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill as of the impairment assessment date. Any excess of the carrying value of the goodwill over the implied fair value of the goodwill is written off as a charge to operations. Since our annual assessment, we have not made any changes to the methodology of valuing or allocating goodwill when determining the carrying values of the radio markets, Reach Media, Interactive One or TV One. Due to the fact that there was an impairment charge recognized for certain FCC licenses, we deemed to that to be an impairment indicator and as such, we performed an interim analysis for certain radio markets’ goodwill. No goodwill impairment was noted during the three or six months ended June 30, 2013. There were no impairment indicators noted for the three or six months ended June 30, 2012.

The Company’s investments in debt securities are sensitive to interest rate fluctuations, which impact the fair value of individual securities. Unrealized losses on the Company’s investments in debt securities have occurred due to volatility and liquidity concerns within the capital markets during the quarter ended June 30, 2013.

The amortized cost and estimated fair value of debt securities at June 30, 2013, by contractual maturity, are shown below.

	Amortized Cost Basis		Fair Value

A primary objective in the management of the fixed maturity portfolios is to maximize total return relative to underlying liabilities and respective liquidity needs. In achieving this goal, assets may be sold to take advantage of market conditions or other investment opportunities, as well as tax considerations. Sales will generally produce realized gains or losses. In the ordinary course of business, the Company may sell securities for a number of reasons, including, but not limited to: (i) changes to the investment environment; (ii) expectation that the fair value could deteriorate further; (iii) desire to reduce exposure to an issuer or an industry; (iv) changes in credit quality; and (v) changes in expected cash flow. Available-for-sale securities were sold as follows:

	Three Months Ended June 30, 2013		Six Months Ended June 30, 2013		Three Months Ended June 30, 2012		Six Months Ended June 30, 2012

Credit Facilities

On March 31, 2011, the Company entered into a senior secured credit facility (the “2011 Credit Agreement”) with a syndicate of banks and simultaneously borrowed $386.0 million to retire all outstanding obligations under the Company’s previous amended and restated credit agreement and to fund our obligation with respect to a capital call initiated by TV One.  The total amount available under the 2011 Credit Agreement is $411.0 million, consisting of a $386.0 million senior bank term debt that matures on March 31, 2016, and a $25.0 million revolving loan facility that matures on March 31, 2015. Borrowings under the credit facilities are subject to compliance with certain covenants including, but not limited to, certain financial covenants. Proceeds from the credit facilities can be used for working capital, capital expenditures made in the ordinary course of business, its common stock repurchase program, permitted direct and indirect investments and other lawful corporate purposes. On December 19, 2012, the Company entered into an amendment to the 2011 Credit Agreement (the “December 2012 Amendment”). The December 2012 Amendment: (i) modifies financial covenant levels with respect to the Company's total-leverage, secured-leverage, and interest-coverage ratios; (ii) increases the amount of cash the Company can net for determination of its net indebtedness tests; and (iii) extends the time for certain of the 2011 Credit Agreement's call premium while reducing the time for its later and lower premium.

The 2011 Credit Agreement, as amended, contains affirmative and negative covenants that the Company is required to comply with, including:

(a) maintaining an interest coverage ratio of no less than:

§	1.10 to 1.00 on December 31, 2012, and the last day of each fiscal quarter through December 31, 2013;
§	1.20 to 1.00 on March 31, 2014, and the last day of each fiscal quarter through September 30, 2014;
§	1.25 to 1.00 on December 31, 2014, and the last day of each fiscal quarter through September 30, 2015; and
§	1.50 to 1.00 on December 31, 2015, and the last day of each fiscal quarter thereafter.

22

(b)   maintaining a senior secured leverage ratio of no greater than:

§	4.50 to 1.00 on September 30, 2012, and the last day of each fiscal quarter through December 31, 2013;
§	4.25 to 1.00 on March 31, 2014, and the last day of each fiscal quarter through June 30, 2014;

In accordance with the 2011 Credit Agreement, as amended, the calculations for the ratios above do not include the operating results and related debt of TV One.

As of June 30, 2013, the Company was in compliance with all of its financial covenants under the 2011 Credit Agreement, as amended.

23

Under the terms of the 2011 Credit Agreement, as amended, interest on base rate loans is payable quarterly and interest on LIBOR loans is payable monthly or quarterly. The base rate is equal to the greater of: (i) the prime rate; (ii) the Federal Funds Effective Rate plus 0.50%; or (iii) the LIBOR Rate for a one-month period plus 1.00%.  The applicable margin on the 2011 Credit Agreement is between (i) 4.50% and 5.50% on the revolving portion of the facility and (ii) 5.00% (with a base rate floor of 2.5% per annum) and 6.00% (with a LIBOR floor of 1.5% per annum) on the term portion of the facility. The average interest rate was 7.50% for the three months ended June 30, 2013. Quarterly installments of 0.25%, or $960,000, of the principal balance on the term loan are payable on the last day of each March, June, September and December.

As of June 30, 2013, the Company had approximately $24.0 million of borrowing capacity under its revolving credit facility. After taking into consideration the financial covenants under the 2011 Credit Agreement, as amended, approximately $24.0 million was available to be borrowed.

As of June 30, 2013, the Company had outstanding approximately $375.4 million on its term credit facility. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company repaid approximately $1.0 million and $1.9 million, respectively under the 2011 Credit Agreement, as amended. According to the terms of the Credit Agreement, as amended, there was no term loan principal repayment based on its December 31, 2012 excess cash flow calculation. The original issue discount is being reflected as an adjustment to the carrying amount of the debt obligation and amortized to interest expense over the term of the credit facility.

Senior Subordinated Notes

On November 24, 2010, we issued $286.8 million of our 12¹/₂%/15% Senior Subordinated Notes due May 2016 (the “12¹/₂%/15% Senior Subordinated Notes due May 2016”) in a private placement and exchanged and then cancelled approximately $97.0 million of $101.5 million in aggregate principal amount outstanding of our 8 ⅞% senior subordinated notes due 2011 (the “2011 Notes”) and approximately $199.3 million of $200.0 million in aggregate principal amount outstanding of our 6³/₈% Senior Subordinated Notes that matured in February 2013 (the “2013 Notes” and the 2013 Notes together with the 2011 Notes, the “Prior Notes”).  We entered into supplemental indentures in respect of each of the Prior Notes which waived any and all existing defaults and events of default that had arisen or may have arisen that may be waived and eliminated substantially all of the covenants in each indenture governing the Prior Notes, other than the covenants to pay principal and interest on the Prior Notes when due, and eliminated or modified the related events of default. Subsequently, all remaining outstanding 2011 Notes were repurchased pursuant to the indenture governing the 2011 Notes, effective as of December 24, 2010.

As of June 30, 2013, the Company had outstanding $327.0 million of our 12¹/₂%/15% Senior Subordinated Notes due May 2016. The 12¹/₂%/15% Senior Subordinated Notes due May 2016 had a carrying value of $327.0 million and a fair value of approximately $327.0 million as of June 30, 2013. The fair values were determined based on the trading value of the instruments as of the reporting date.

Interest payments under the terms of the 6³/₈% Senior Subordinated Notes that matured in February 2013, were due in February and August.  Based on the $747,000 principal balance of the 6³/₈% Senior Subordinated Notes outstanding at December 31, 2012, interest payments of $24,000 were paid each February and August through February 2013.

Interest on the 12¹/₂%/15% Senior Subordinated Notes was initially payable in cash, or at our election, partially in cash and partially through the issuance of additional 12¹/₂%/15% Senior Subordinated Notes (a “PIK Election”) on a quarterly basis in arrears on February 15, May 15, August 15 and November 15, commencing on February 15, 2011.  We made a PIK Election with respect to interest accruing up to but not including May 15, 2012. With respect to interest accruing from and after May 15, 2012, such interest accrues at a rate of 12¹/₂% payable in cash.

Interest on the 12¹/₂%/15% Senior Subordinated Notes due May 2016 accrued from the date of original issuance or, if interest had already been paid, from the date it was most recently paid.  Interest accrues for each quarterly period at a rate of 12¹/₂% for such quarterly period that interest is paid fully in cash.  However, during the period the PIK Election was in effect, the interest paid in cash and the interest paid-in-kind by issuance of additional 12¹/₂%/15% Senior Subordinated Notes due May 2016 (“PIK Notes”) accrued for such quarterly period at 6.0% cash per annum and 9.0% PIK per annum.

A PIK Election remained in effect until May 14, 2012. Beginning on May 15, 2012, interest accrued at a rate of 12¹/₂% and was payable wholly in cash and the Company no longer had an option to pay any portion of its interest through the issuance of PIK Notes. During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company issued approximately $14.2 million of additional 12¹/₂%/15% Senior Subordinated Notes in accordance with the PIK Election that was in effect through May 14, 2012.

24

The indentures governing the Company’s 12¹/₂%/15% Senior Subordinated Notes also contain covenants that restrict, among other things, the ability of the Company to incur additional debt, purchase common 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 Company conducts a portion of its business through its subsidiaries. Certain of the Company’s subsidiaries have fully and unconditionally guaranteed the Company’s 12¹/₂%/15% Senior Subordinated Notes, the 6³/₈% Senior Subordinated Notes and the Company’s obligations under the 2011 Credit Agreement, as amended.

TV One Senior Secured Notes

In connection with the Redemption Financing, TV One issued $119.0 million in senior secured notes on February 25, 2011. The notes were issued in connection with the repurchase of equity interests from certain financial investors and TV One management. The notes bear interest at 10.0% per annum, which is payable monthly, and the entire principal amount is due on March 15, 2016.

Future scheduled minimum principal payments of debt as of June 30, 2013, are as follows:

	Credit Facility		Senior Subordinated Notes		TV One Senior Secured Notes		Total

7.  INCOME TAXES:

The Company recorded a tax expense of approximately $11.4 million on a pre-tax loss from continuing operations of approximately $10.5 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2013, based on the actual effective tax rate for the current period. Because our income tax expense does not have a correlation to our pre-tax earnings, changes in those earnings can have a significant impact on the income tax expense we recognize.  The Company continues to estimate a range of possible outcomes due to the proportion of deferred tax expense from indefinite-lived intangible assets over pre-tax earnings. As a result, we believe the actual effective tax rate best represents the estimated effective rate for the six month period ended June 30, 2013, in accordance with ASC 740-270, "Interim Reporting."

As of June 30, 2013, the Company continues to maintain a full valuation allowance for entities, including Reach Media, for its net deferred tax assets, but excludes deferred tax liabilities related to indefinite-lived intangible assets. In accordance with ASC 740, "Accounting for Income Taxes", the Company continually assesses the adequacy of the valuation allowance by assessing the likely future tax consequences of events that have been realized in the Company's financial statements or tax returns, tax planning strategies, and future profitability. As of June 30, 2013, the Company does not believe it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be realized. As part of the assessment, the Company has not included the deferred tax liability related to indefinite-lived intangible assets as a source of future taxable income to support realization of the deferred tax assets.

8.  STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY:

Stock Repurchase Program

In January 2013, the Company’s board of directors authorized a repurchase of shares of the Company’s Class A and Class D common stock (the “January 2013 Repurchase Authorization”). Under the January 2013 Repurchase Authorization, the Company is authorized, but is not obligated, to repurchase up to $2.0 million worth of its Class A and/or Class D common stock. Subsequently, in May 2013, the Company’s board of directors authorized a further $1.5 million worth of stock repurchases (the “May 2013 Repurchase Authorization”). Thus, the aggregate amount authorized between the January 2013 Repurchase Authorization and the May 2013 Repurchase Authorization was $3.5 million. As of June 30, 2013, the Company had approximately $1.3 million remaining between the two authorizations with respect to its Class A and D stock. (See Note 13 – Subsequent Events). Repurchases will be made from time to time in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. The timing and extent of any repurchases will depend upon prevailing market conditions, the trading price of the Company’s Class A and/or Class D common stock and other factors, and subject to restrictions under applicable law. The Company executes upon the stock repurchase program in a manner consistent with market conditions and the interests of the stockholders, including maximizing stockholder value. During the three months ended June 30, 2013, the Company repurchased 1,166,300 shares of Class D common stock in the amount of $2,673,723 at an average price of $2.29 per share and 24,419 shares of Class A common stock in the amount of $57,306 at an average price of $2.35 per share. During the six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company repurchased 2,118,274 shares of Class D common stock in the amount of $4,188,625 at an average price of $1.98 per share and 31,569 shares of Class A common stock in the amount of $68,331 at an average price of $2.16 per share. During the six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company did not repurchase any Class A Common Stock or Class D Common Stock.

Stock Option and Restricted Stock Grant Plan

Under the Company’s 1999 Stock Option and Restricted Stock Grant Plan (“Plan”), the Company had the authority to issue up to 10,816,198 shares of Class D common stock and 1,408,099 shares of Class A common stock. The Plan expired March 10, 2009. The options previously issued under this plan are exercisable in installments determined by the compensation committee of the Company’s board of directors at the time of grant. These options expire as determined by the compensation 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.

A new stock option and restricted stock plan (the “2009 Stock Plan”) was approved by the stockholders at the Company’s annual meeting on December 16, 2009.  The terms of the 2009 Stock Plan are substantially similar to the prior Plan. The Company has the authority to issue up to 8,250,000 shares of Class D common stock under the 2009 Stock Plan. As of June 30, 2013, 4,614,627 shares of Class D common stock were available for grant under the 2009 Stock Plan.

The Company follows the provisions under ASC 718, “Compensation - Stock Compensation,” 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. These stock-based awards do not participate in dividends until fully vested. The fair value of stock options is determined using the Black-Scholes (“BSM”) valuation model.  Such fair value is recognized as an expense over the service period, net of estimated forfeitures, using the straight-line method. 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 number of stock awards 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.

The Company’s use of the BSM valuation model to calculate the fair value of stock-based awards incorporates various assumptions including volatility, expected life, and interest rates. For options granted, the BSM option-pricing model determines: (i) the term by using the simplified “plain-vanilla” method as allowed under SAB No. 110; (ii) a historical volatility over a period commensurate with the expected term, with the observation of the volatility on a daily basis; and (iii) a risk-free interest rate that was consistent with the expected term of the stock options and based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the grant.

Stock-based compensation expense for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, was $47,000 and $46,000, respectively, and for each of the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, was $90,000.

The Company did not grant any stock options during the six months ended June 30, 2013, or during the six months ended June 30, 2012.

Transactions and other information relating to stock options for the six months ended June 30, 2013, are summarized below:

	Number of Options		Weighted-Average Exercise Price		Weighted-Average Remaining Contractual Term (In Years)		Aggregate Intrinsic Value
Outstanding at December 31, 2012		4,630,000	$	8.17				—
Grants		—	$	—

Forfeited/cancelled/expired		—	$	—
Balance as of June 30, 2013		4,630,000	$	8.17		3.28	$	2,092,602
Vested and expected to vest at June 30, 2013		4,621,000	$	8.19		3.27	$	2,078,928
Unvested at June 30, 2013		75,000	$	0.83		8.93	$	112,197
Exercisable at June 30, 2013		4,555,000	$	8.29		3.18	$	1,980,405

The aggregate intrinsic value in the table above represents the difference between the Company’s stock closing price on the last day of trading during the six months ended June 30, 2013, 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 June 30, 2013. This amount changes based on the fair market value of the Company’s stock. There were no options exercised during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012. The number of options that vested during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, were 108,725. The number of options that vested during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, were 79,292 and 656,079, respectively.

As of June 30, 2013, $51,000 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to stock options is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 11 months. The stock option weighted-average fair value per share was $3.23 at June 30, 2013.

The Company granted 109,645 shares of restricted stock during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013. These restricted shares were issued to the Company’s non-executive directors as a part of their annual compensation package. Each of the five non-executive directors received 21,929 shares of restricted stock or $50,000 worth of restricted stock based upon the closing price of the Company’s Class D shares on June 14, 2013. These shares vest over a two year period in equal 50% installments. The Company did not grant shares of restricted stock during the six months ended June 30, 2012.

Transactions and other information relating to restricted stock grants for the six months ended June 30, 2013, are summarized below:

	Shares		Average Fair Value at Grant Date
Unvested at December 31, 2012		82,000	$	1.11
Grants		110,000	$	2.28
Vested		(25,000)	$	1.04
Forfeited/cancelled/expired		—	$	—
Unvested at June 30, 2013		167,000	$	1.89

The restricted stock grants were included in the Company’s outstanding share numbers on the effective date of grant. As of June 30, 2013, $280,000 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to restricted stock grants is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 14 months.

9.  SEGMENT INFORMATION:

The Company has four reportable segments: (i) Radio Broadcasting; (ii) Reach Media; (iii) Internet; and (iv) Cable Television. These segments operate in the United States and are consistently aligned with the Company’s management of its businesses and its financial reporting structure.

The Radio Broadcasting segment consists of all broadcast results of operations. The Company aggregates the broadcast markets in which it operates into the Radio Broadcasting segment. The Reach Media segment consists of the results of operations for the Tom Joyner Morning Show and Tom Joyner Morning Show related activities and operations of the Syndication One Urban programming line-up. Effective, January 1, 2013, we consolidated our syndication network programming within Reach Media to leverage that platform to create the leading syndicated radio network targeted to the African-American audience. In connection with the consolidation, we shifted our syndicated programming sales to an internal sales force operating out of Reach Media. The Internet segment includes the results of our online business, including the operations of Interactive One. The Cable Television segment consists of TV One’s results of operations. Corporate/Eliminations/Other represents financial activity associated with our corporate staff and offices and intercompany activity among the four segments.

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

The accounting policies described in the summary of significant accounting policies in Note 1 – Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies are applied consistently across the segments.

10.  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS:

The Company’s 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 the Company, we believe that the provision of such promotion is fair.  During the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, Radio One did not make any payments, to or on behalf of Music One. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, Radio One paid $37,000 and $37,000, respectively, to or on behalf of Music One, primarily for talent appearances, travel reimbursement and sponsorships. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company did not provide any advertising services to Music One. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company provided advertising services to Music One in the amounts of $0 and $1,000, respectively. There were no cash, trade or no-charge orders placed by Music One for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012.

11.  CONDENSED CONSOLIDATING FINANCIAL STATEMENTS:

The Company conducts a portion of its business through its subsidiaries. All of the Company’s Subsidiary Guarantors have fully and unconditionally guaranteed the Company’s 6³/₈% Senior Subordinated Notes due February 2013, the 12¹/₂%/15% Senior Subordinated Notes due May 2016, and the Company’s obligations under the 2011 Credit Agreement, as amended. 

On February 14, 2013, one of our subsidiaries, Reach Media, became a guarantor with respect to the 2011 Credit Agreement. This change in status has been retrospectively reflected in the accompanying consolidating financial statements.

Set forth below are consolidating balance sheets for the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors as of June 30, 2013, and December 31, 2012, and the related consolidating statements of operations, comprehensive loss and cash flows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012. We have applied the equity method of accounting to report our investments in subsidiaries. Separate financial statements for the subsidiary guarantors are not presented (except as described below) based on management’s determination that those financial statements do not provide additional information that is material to investors. 

The Radio One, Inc. column of the condensed consolidating financial statements reflects the assets directly owned by Radio One, Inc., which consist of assets for several radio markets, and also includes the FCC licenses associated with those markets whose assets are directly owned by Radio One, Inc.

The non-wholly owned subsidiaries column of the condensed consolidating financial information reflects the financial statement activity for Reach Media. The Company, through one of its guarantor subsidiaries, has an 80% ownership interest in Reach Media. We have also included separate financial statements for Reach Media for the financial statement periods covered by this filing.

The non-guarantor subsidiary column of the condensed consolidating financial information reflects the financial statement activity for TV One, LLC (“TV One”). Radio One, through one of its guarantor subsidiaries, has an approximately 51% ownership interest in TV One. The financial information within this column does not reflect the Company’s basis in TV One as the “push down” of this basis would not be required or permitted in separate financial statements of TV One.

The consolidation adjustments column reflects consolidating adjustments to: (i) eliminate the investment in subsidiaries, (ii), reflect the Company’s basis in TV One, (iii) allocate the consolidated net income to the noncontrolling interests, and (iv) eliminate intercompany transactions.

In connection with preparing the quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2013, the Company identified misclassifications in its previously filed financial statements related to the condensed consolidating financial statements of guarantors in the notes to its previously filed financial statements in its quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2013 (the “First Quarter 10-Q”) and in its annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 (the “2012 10-K”). The misclassifications primarily relate to: (i) including TV One in the “Radio One, Inc.” column in the condensed consolidating financial statements in each of the 2012 10-K and the First Quarter 10-Q although TV One is a non-guarantor subsidiary of the Company under its outstanding notes registered under the Securities Act of 1933; (ii) including Reach Media, Inc. (“Reach Media”) in the “Radio One, Inc.” column in the condensed consolidating financial statements in the 2012 10-K although Reach Media was a non-guarantor subsidiary for that reporting period; and (iii) after Reach Media became a guarantor under the Company’s outstanding registered notes on February 14, 2013, including Reach Media in the “Wholly-Owned Guarantor Subsidiaries” column in the condensed consolidating financial statements in the First Quarter 10-Q and the comparative period in 2012 rather than a separate column for “non-wholly owned guarantor subsidiaries”. Additionally, the Company determined separate financial statements for Reach Media should have been included in the First Quarter 10-Q because it is not wholly owned by the Company. The accompanying condensed consolidating financial statements for the current period reflect these corrections. In consultation with its audit committee, management has concluded it will amend the previously filed financial statements in its 2012 10-K and First Quarter 2013 10-Q to reflect these corrections in those filings. These changes have no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, including its consolidated balance sheets, consolidated statements of operations, consolidated statements of comprehensive income, consolidated statements of changes in equity or consolidated statements of cash flows for any previously reported period.

12. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:

Royalty Agreements

Effective December 31, 2009, our radio music license agreements with the two largest performance rights organizations, American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (“ASCAP”) and Broadcast Music, Inc. (“BMI”) expired. The Radio Music License Committee (“RMLC”), which negotiates music licensing fees for most of the radio industry with ASCAP and BMI, at that time, reached an agreement with these organizations on a temporary fee schedule that reflected a provisional discount of 7.0% against 2009 fee levels. The temporary fee reductions became effective in January 2010. In May 2010 and June 2010, the U.S. District Court’s judge charged with determining the licenses fees ruled to further reduce interim fees paid to ASCAP and BMI, respectively, down approximately another 11.0% from the previous temporary fees negotiated with the RMLC. In January 2012, the U.S. District Court approved a settlement between RMLC and ASCAP. The settlement determined the amount to be paid to ASCAP for usage through 2016. In addition, stations received a credit for overpayments made in 2010 and 2011 to ASCAP. In June 2012, RMLC and BMI reached a settlement agreement. The settlement covers the period through 2016 and determined a new fee structure based on percentage of revenue. In addition, stations received a credit for overpayments made in 2010 and 2011 to BMI.

The Company has entered into other fixed and variable fee music license agreements with other performance rights organizations, which expire as late as December 2016. In connection with all performance rights organization agreements, including ASCAP and BMI, the Company incurred expenses of approximately $2.5 million and $4.8 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2013, respectively, and approximately $2.6 million and $5.4 million, respectively, for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2012.

Other Contingencies

The Company has been named as a defendant in several legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. It is management’s opinion, after consultation with its legal counsel, that the outcome of these claims will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of June 30, 2013, the Company had four standby letters of credit totaling $1.0 million in connection with our annual insurance policy renewals and real estate leases.

Noncontrolling Interest Shareholders’ Put Rights

Beginning on February 28, 2012, the noncontrolling interest shareholders of Reach Media had an annual right to require Reach Media to purchase all or a portion of their shares at the then current fair market value for such shares (the “Put Right”).   Beginning in 2012, this annual right was exercisable for a 30-day period beginning February 28 of each year. The purchase price for such shares may be paid in cash and/or registered Class D Common Stock of Radio One, at the discretion of Radio One. On December 31, 2012, Reach Media and its noncontrolling interest shareholders amended the shareholder’s agreement governing their relationship. As part of that amendment, the noncontrolling interest shareholders agreed to delay the Put Right until January 1, 2018. The terms of the Put Right remain the same in all other respects.

13.  SUBSEQUENT EVENTS:

On July 22, 2013, the Company received notice from Katz Communications, Inc. and various of its divisions and affiliates (collectively, “Katz”) that Katz was terminating its national sales representation of the Company effective fourteen (14) months from the date of the notice, as provided under the terms of various representation agreements and a master representation agreement.   While the termination notice would provide for a termination of the relationship between the Company and Katz effective September 23, 2014 (the “Effective Termination Date”), the parties are in continued negotiation with respect to a new sales representation agreement.  While the Company cannot guarantee that an agreement will be reached with respect to continued sales representation by Katz, the Company anticipates completing a new sales representation agreement with Katz or another sales representative prior to the Effective Termination Date and does not anticipate any interruption with respect to national sales representation.

Since July 1, 2013, and through the date of this filing, the Company repurchased 512,300 shares of Class D common stock in the amount of $1,209,108 at an average price of $2.36 per share and 1,100 shares of Class A common stock in the amount of $2,655 at an average price of $2.41 per share. As of the date of this filing, the Company had approximately $57,000 available under its repurchase authorizations.

Effective July 30, 2013, the Company changed the format of one of its Cincinnati stations.  The Company changed its 100.3 frequency from a sports format to “Old School 100.3”.

During the third quarter of 2013, TV One gave notice to the former CEO that it will buy his outstanding interest. Subsequent to this redemption of management interest, Radio One’s ownership of TV One will increase to approximately 51.9%.

Item 2.  Management’s 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 and the audited financial statements and Management’s Discussion and Analysis contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended on Form 10-K/A, for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Introduction

Revenue

We primarily derive revenue from the sale of advertising time and program sponsorships to local and national advertisers on our radio stations. 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 station’s 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.

During the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, approximately 49.3% and 55.3%, respectively, of our net revenue was generated from the sale of advertising in our core radio business, excluding Reach Media. Of our total net revenue, for the three months ended June 30, 2013, approximately 35.0% of our net revenue was generated from local advertising and approximately 34.5% was generated from national advertising, including network advertising. In comparison, during the three months ended June 30, 2012, approximately 43.5% of our net revenue was generated from local advertising and approximately 33.7%, was generated from national advertising, including network advertising. Our cable television segment generated approximately 31.5% and 30.5% of our total revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, approximately 49.9% and 51.6%, respectively, of our net revenue was generated from the sale of advertising in our core radio business, excluding Reach Media. Of our total net revenue, for the six months ended June 30, 2013, approximately 36.5% of our net revenue was generated from local advertising and approximately 34.8% was generated from national advertising, including network advertising. In comparison, during the six months ended June 30, 2012, approximately 41.0% of our net revenue was generated from local advertising and approximately 32.6%, was generated from national advertising, including network advertising. Our cable television segment generated approximately 33.7% and 30.9% of our total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. National advertising also includes advertising revenue generated from our internet segment. The balance of net revenue from our radio segment 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 and television 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.

Interactive One derives its revenue principally from advertising services, including diversity recruiting advertising. Advertising services include the sale of banner and sponsorship advertisements. Advertising revenue is recognized either as impressions (the number of times advertisements appear in viewed pages) are delivered, when “click through” purchases are made or leads are generated, or ratably over the contract period, where applicable.

TV One generates the Company’s cable television revenue, and derives its revenue principally from advertising and affiliate revenue. Advertising revenue is derived from the sale of television air time to advertisers and is recognized when the advertisements are run. TV One also receives affiliate fees and records revenue during the term of various affiliation agreements at levels appropriate for the most recent subscriber counts reported by the applicable affiliate.

Expenses

Our significant expenses are: (i) employee salaries and commissions; (ii) programming expenses; (iii) marketing and promotional expenses; (iv) rental of premises for office facilities and studios; (v) rental of transmission tower space; (vi) music license royalty fees; and (vii) content amortization. We strive to control these expenses by centralizing certain functions such as finance, accounting, legal, human resources and management information systems and, in certain markets, the 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. In addition to salaries and commissions, major expenses for our internet business include membership traffic acquisition costs, software product design, post application software development and maintenance, database and server support costs, the help desk function, data center expenses connected with internet service provider (“ISP”) hosting services and other internet content delivery expenses. Major expenses for our cable television business include content acquisition and amortization, sales and marketing.

46

We generally incur marketing and promotional expenses to increase our audiences. However, because Arbitron reports ratings either monthly or quarterly, depending on the particular market, any changed ratings and the effect on advertising revenue tends to lag behind both the reporting of the ratings and 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 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 revenue. Net revenue consists of gross revenue, net of local and national agency and outside sales representative commissions consistent with industry practice. Net revenue is recognized in the period in which advertisements are broadcast. Net revenue also includes advertising aired in exchange for goods and services, which is recorded at fair value, revenue from sponsored events and other revenue. Net revenue is recognized for our online business as impressions are delivered, as “click throughs” are made or ratably over contract periods, where applicable. Net revenue is recognized for our cable television business as advertisements are run, and during the term of the affiliation agreements at levels appropriate for the most recent subscriber counts reported by the affiliate.

(b) Station operating income: Net income (loss) before depreciation and amortization, income taxes, interest (income) expense, noncontrolling interests’ income, other (income) expense, corporate expenses, 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 in the United States (“GAAP”). Nevertheless, station operating income 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 fixed and long-lived intangible assets, income taxes, investments, impairment charges, debt financings and retirements, corporate overhead, stock-based compensation and discontinued operations. Our measure of station operating income may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies as our definition includes the results of all four segments (Radio Broadcasting, Reach Media, Internet and Cable Television). Station operating income does not represent operating loss or cash flow from operating activities, as those terms are defined under GAAP, 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 revenue. Station operating income margin is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP. Nevertheless, we believe that station operating income margin is a useful measure of our performance because it provides helpful information about our profitability as a percentage of our net revenue. Station operating margin include results from all four segments (Radio Broadcasting, Reach Media, Internet and Cable Television).

(d) Adjusted EBITDA: Adjusted EBITDA consists of net (loss) income plus (1) depreciation and amortization, income taxes, interest expense, noncontrolling interest in income of subsidiaries, impairment of long-lived assets, stock-based compensation, income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax, less (2) other income and interest income. Net income before interest income, interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization is commonly referred to in our business as “EBITDA.” Adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA are not measures of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles. We believe Adjusted EBITDA is often a useful measure of a company’s operating performance and is a significant basis used by our management to measure the operating performance of our business because Adjusted EBITDA excludes charges for depreciation, amortization and interest expense that have resulted from our acquisitions and debt financing, our taxes, impairment charges, as well as our equity in (income) loss of our affiliated company, gain on retirements of debt, and any discontinued operations. Accordingly, we believe that Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information about the operating performance of our business, apart from the expenses associated with our fixed assets and long-lived intangible assets, capital structure or the results of our affiliated company. Adjusted EBITDA is frequently used as one of the bases for comparing businesses in our industry, although our measure of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies as our definition includes the results of all four segments (Radio Broadcasting, Reach Media, Internet and Cable Television). Adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA do not purport to represent operating income or cash flow from operating activities, as those terms are defined under generally accepted accounting principles, and should not be considered as alternatives to those measurements as an indicator of our performance.

Net revenue

Three Months Ended June 30,				Increase/(Decrease)
2013		2012
$	119,602	$	105,830	$	13,772	13.0	%

During the three months ended June 30, 2013, we recognized approximately $119.6 million in net revenue compared to approximately $105.8 million during the same period in 2012. These amounts are net of agency and outside sales representative commissions, which were approximately $8.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2013, compared to approximately $9.2 million for the comparable period in 2012. We recognized approximately $37.7 million and $32.3 million of revenue from our Cable Television segment during the three months ended June 30, 2013, and 2012, respectively due primarily from an increase in advertising sales. Effective January 1, 2013, the Company transferred its syndication operations from the Radio Broadcasting segment to the Reach Media segment. Adjusting for the impact of moving our syndicated programming to Reach Media, net revenues from our Radio Broadcasting segment for the quarter ended June 30, 2013, increased 0.4% from the same period in 2012. However, after further adjusting for the timing difference for the Company’s annual Gospel Cruise event held in March 2012 versus during the second quarter of 2013, our core radio revenue from our stations decreased 0.6% for the quarter ended June 30, 2013, compared to the same period in 2012. Based on reports prepared by the independent accounting firm Miller, Kaplan, Arase & Co., LLP, the markets we operate in decreased 0.2% in total revenues. We experienced net revenue growth most significantly in our Charlotte, Columbus, Houston and Washington, DC markets, with our Cincinnati, Dallas, Detroit, Philadelphia and Raleigh markets experiencing the most significant declines. Adjusting for the impact of moving our syndicated programming to Reach Media, Reach Media’s net revenues increased 54.1% in the second quarter of 2013, compared to the same period in 2012 primarily due to the timing of the “Tom Joyner Fantastic Voyage” which took place during the three months ended June 30, 2013, and generated revenue of approximately $7.2 million for Reach Media during that time. The “Tom Joyner Fantastic Voyage” took place during the first quarter of 2012. After further adjusting for the timing difference for the “Tom Joyner Fantastic Voyage,” Reach Media’s revenue decreased 7.2% for the quarter ended June 30, 2013, compared to the same period in 2012. Net revenues for our internet business increased 45.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2013, compared to the same period in 2012 driven primarily from a new customer agreement that didn’t previously exist.

Operating Expenses

Programming and technical, excluding stock-based compensation

Three Months Ended June 30,				Increase/(Decrease)
2013		2012
$	32,897	$	32,916	$	(19)	(0.1)	%

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. Programming and technical expenses for radio also include expenses associated with our programming research activities and music royalties. For our internet business, programming and technical expenses include software product design, post-application software development and maintenance, database and server support costs, the help desk function, data center expenses connected with ISP hosting services and other internet content delivery expenses. Our Cable Television segment incurred an increase in programming and technical expenses primarily related to higher content amortization for the three months ended June 30, 2013, compared to the same period in 2012 as TV One continues to expand its content programming. This increase was more than offset by a decrease in our combined Radio Broadcasting and Reach Media segments due primarily to lower contracted talent costs.

Selling, general and administrative, excluding stock-based compensation

Three Months Ended June 30,				Increase/(Decrease)
2013		2012
$	41,007	$	31,522	$	9,485	30.1	%

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, special events and sponsorships and back office expenses. Expenses to secure ratings data for our radio stations and visitors’ data for our websites are also included in selling, general and administrative expenses. In addition, selling, general and administrative expenses for the Radio Broadcasting segment and Internet segment include expenses related to the advertising traffic (scheduling and insertion) functions. Selling, general and administrative expenses also include membership traffic acquisition costs for our online business. The increase for the three months ended June 30, 2013, compared to the same period in 2012 is primarily due to timing of the Company’s annual Gospel Cruise event and Reach Media’s “Tom Joyner Fantastic Voyage” event, both of which were held in the second quarter of 2013 versus the first quarter of 2012. These events generated expenses of approximately $6.7 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2013. In addition, approximately $1.9 million of the increase in expense is due to higher marketing and promotional expenses generated by TV One. Finally, there were higher web services fees and traffic acquisition costs generated by Interactive One.

Corporate selling, general and administrative, excluding stock-based compensation

Three Months Ended June 30,				Increase/(Decrease)
2013		2012
$	7,975	$	9,824	$	(1,849)	(18.8)	%

Corporate expenses consist of expenses associated with our corporate headquarters and facilities, including personnel as well as other corporate overhead functions. The decrease in corporate expenses was due to lower employee compensation  costs, facilities costs and research expenses at our Radio Broadcasting segment.

Depreciation and amortization

Three Months Ended June 30,				Increase/(Decrease)
2013		2012
$	9,467	$	9,742	$	(275)	(2.8)	%

The decrease in depreciation and amortization expense for the three months ended June 30, 2013, was due to the completion of amortization for certain intangible assets and the completion of useful lives for certain assets.

Impairment of long-lived assets

Three Months Ended June 30,				Increase/(Decrease)
2013		2012
$	9,800	$	313	$	9,487	3,031.0	%

The impairment of long-lived assets for the three months ended June 30, 2013, was related to a non-cash impairment charge recorded to reduce the carrying value of our Cincinnati, Cleveland and Philadelphia radio broadcasting licenses. The impairment of long-lived assets for the three months ended June 30, 2012, was related to a non-cash impairment charge recorded to reduce the carrying value of our Charlotte radio broadcasting licenses.

Interest expense

Three Months Ended June 30,				Increase/(Decrease)
2013		2012
$	22,406	$	22,928	$	(522)	(2.3)	%

Interest expense decreased to approximately $22.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013, compared to approximately $22.9 million for the same period in 2012. The primary driver of the decrease was that through May 14, 2012, interest on the Company’s 12¹/₂%/15% Senior Subordinated Notes was payable at our election at an all-inclusive rate of 15%, partially in cash and partially through the issuance of additional 12¹/₂%/15% Senior Subordinated Notes (a “PIK Election”) on a quarterly basis. The PIK Election expired on May 14, 2012, and interest accruing from and after May 15, 2012, accrues at a rate of 12¹/₂% and is payable in cash.

Provision for (benefit from) income taxes

Three Months Ended June 30,				Increase/(Decrease)
2013		2012
$	4,702	$	(48,491)	$	(53,193)	(109.7)	%

For the three months ended June 30, 2013, the provision for income taxes was approximately $4.7 million, primarily attributable to the deferred tax liability (“DTL”) for indefinite-lived intangible assets. For the three months ended June 30, 2012, the benefit from income taxes of approximately $48.5 million is primarily due to adjusting the year-to-date income tax provision based on the actual effective tax rate as of June 30, 2012.  Because our income tax expense does not have a correlation to our pre-tax earnings, changes in those earnings can have a significant impact on the income tax expense we recognize. As a result, we believe the actual effective tax rate best represents the estimated effective rate for the three month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012. During the first quarter of 2012, the Company calculated the income tax provision using the estimated annual effective tax rate. The Company revised its approach and calculated the income tax provision using the actual effective tax rate to adjust the year-to-date income tax provision during the second quarter of 2012. During both the first and second quarters of 2013, the Company calculated the income tax provision using the actual effective tax rate.

Income from discontinued operations, net of tax

Three Months Ended June 30,				Increase/(Decrease)
2013		2012
$	15	$	20	$	(5)	(25.0)	%

Income from discontinued operations, net of tax, includes the results of operations for our sold radio stations (or stations subject to a local marketing agreement). Income from discontinued operations, net of tax, was $15,000 and $20,000 for the quarters ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Noncontrolling interests in income of subsidiaries

Three Months Ended June 30,				Increase/(Decrease)
2013		2012
$	5,662	$	3,797	$	1,865	49.1	%

The increase in noncontrolling interests in income of subsidiaries was due primarily to greater net income generated by TV One and Reach Media during the three months ended June 30, 2013, compared to the same period in 2012.

Other Data

Station operating income

Station operating income increased to approximately $45.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013, compared to approximately $41.4 million for the comparable period in 2012, an increase of $4.3 million or 10.4%. This increase was primarily due to greater Reach Media and TV One station operating income for the three months ended June 30, 2013, versus the same period in 2012. TV One generated approximately $16.1 million of station operating income during the quarter ended June 30, 2013, compared to $13.7 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2012, with the increase due to a larger number of subscribers as well as organic growth. Reach Media generated approximately $3.0 million of station operating income during the quarter ended June 30, 2013, compared to $2.0 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2012, primarily due to the timing of the “Tom Joyner Fantastic Voyage” held during the second quarter of 2013.

Station operating income margin

Station operating income margin decreased to 38.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2013, from 39.1% for the comparable period in 2012.

Net revenue

Six Months Ended June 30,				Increase/(Decrease)
2013		2012
$	218,714	$	208,794	$	9,920	4.8	%

During the six months ended June 30, 2013, we recognized approximately $218.7 million in net revenue compared to approximately $208.8 million during the same period in 2012. These amounts are net of agency and outside sales representative commissions, which were approximately $15.2 million during the six months ended 2013, compared to approximately $16.4 million during the same period in 2012. We recognized approximately $73.7 million and $64.5 million of revenue from our Cable Television segment during the six months ended June 30, 2013, and 2012, respectively due primarily from an increase in advertising and affiliate sales. Effective January 1, 2013, the Company transferred its syndication operations from the Radio Broadcasting segment to the Reach Media segment. Adjusting for the impact of moving our syndicated programming to Reach Media, net revenues from our Radio Broadcasting segment for the six months ended June 30, 2013, increased 0.8% from the same period in 2012. Based on reports prepared by the independent accounting firm Miller, Kaplan, Arase & Co., LLP, the markets we operate in increased 0.1% in total revenues. Our Charlotte, Columbus, Houston and Washington DC markets experienced the most significant net revenue growth, while our Cincinnati, Dallas, Detroit, Philadelphia and Raleigh markets experienced the most significant net revenue declines. Adjusting for the impact of moving our syndicated programming to Reach Media, Reach Media’s net revenues decreased 4.0% in the six months ended June 30, 2013, compared to the same period in 2012. Net revenue for our internet business increased 12.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2013, compared to the same period in 2012, driven primarily from a new customer agreement that didn’t previously exist.  

Operating Expenses

Programming and technical, excluding stock-based compensation

Six Months Ended June 30,				Increase/(Decrease)
2013		2012
$	63,370	$	64,028	$	(658)	(1.0)	%

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. Programming and technical expenses for radio also include expenses associated with our programming research activities and music royalties. For our internet business, programming and technical expenses include software product design, post-application software development and maintenance, database and server support costs, the help desk function, data center expenses connected with ISP hosting services and other internet content delivery expenses. Our Cable Television segment incurred an increase of approximately $1.4 million in programming and technical expenses primarily related to higher content amortization for the six months ended June 30, 2013, compared to the same period in 2012 as TV One continues to expand its content programming. This increase in expense was more than offset by declines in our combined Radio Broadcasting and Reach Media segments due primarily to lower contracted talent costs.

Selling, general and administrative, excluding stock-based compensation

Six Months Ended June 30,				Increase/(Decrease)
2013		2012
$	73,716	$	70,277	$	3,439	4.9	%

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, special events and sponsorships and back office expenses. Expenses to secure ratings data for our radio stations and visitors’ data for our websites are also included in selling, general and administrative expenses. In addition, selling, general and administrative expenses for the Radio Broadcasting segment and Internet segment include expenses related to the advertising traffic (scheduling and insertion) functions. Selling, general and administrative expenses also include membership traffic acquisition costs for our online business. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2013 is due primarily from our Cable Television and Internet segments. Our Cable Television segment generated an increase in expense of approximately $2.0 million and our Internet segment generated an increase in expense of approximately $1.0 million. Our Cable Television segment generated higher marketing and promotional expenses and our Internet segment generated higher research, web services fees and traffic acquisition costs.

Corporate selling, general and administrative, excluding stock-based compensation

Six Months Ended June 30,				Increase/(Decrease)
2013		2012
$	17,423	$	19,390	$	(1,967)	(10.1)	%

Corporate expenses consist of expenses associated with our corporate headquarters and facilities, including personnel as well as other corporate overhead functions. There was an increase in corporate expenses due to an increase in compensation expense for the Chief Executive Officer in connection with the valuation of the potential payment for the TV One award element in his employment Agreement. This increase was more than offset by lower employee compensation costs, rent and research expenses at our Radio Broadcasting segment.

Depreciation and amortization

Six Months Ended June 30,				Increase/(Decrease)
2013		2012
$	19,007	$	19,427	$	(420)	(2.2)	%

The decrease in depreciation and amortization expense for the six months ended June 30, 2013, was due to the completion of amortization for certain intangible assets and the completion of useful lives for certain assets.

Impairment of long-lived assets

Six Months Ended June 30,				Increase/(Decrease)
2013		2012
$	11,170	$	313	$	10,857	3,468.7	%

The impairment of long-lived assets for the six months ended June 30, 2013, was related to a non-cash impairment charge recorded to reduce the carrying value of our Cincinnati, Cleveland and Philadelphia radio broadcasting licenses. The impairment of long-lived assets for the six months ended June 30, 2012, was related to a non-cash impairment charge recorded to reduce the carrying value of our Charlotte radio broadcasting licenses.

Interest expense

Six Months Ended June 30,				Increase/(Decrease)
2013		2012
$	44,652	$	46,675	$	(2,023)	(4.3)	%

Interest expense decreased to approximately $44.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, compared to approximately $46.7 million for the same period in 2012. The primary driver of the decrease was that through May 14, 2012, interest on the Company’s 12¹/₂%/15% Senior Subordinated Notes was payable at our election at an all-inclusive rate of 15%, partially in cash and partially through the issuance of additional 12¹/₂%/15% Senior Subordinated Notes (a “PIK Election”)  on a quarterly basis. The PIK Election expired on May 14, 2012, and interest accruing from and after May 15, 2012, accrues at a rate of 12¹/₂% and is payable in cash.

Six Months Ended June 30,				Increase/(Decrease)
2013		2012
$	(70)	$	603	$	673	111.6	%

Other expense, net, of $603,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2012, was primarily due to the disposal of assets associated with the Company’s corporate office move.

Six Months Ended June 30,				Increase/(Decrease)
2013		2012
$	11,383	$	16,763	$	(5,380)	(32.1)	%

For the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, the provision for income taxes is approximately $11.4 million and $16.8 million, respectively, based on the actual effective tax rate. The provision for income taxes is primarily attributable to the increase in the Company’s deferred tax liabilities for its indefinite-lived intangible assets.

Income from discontinued operations, net of tax

Six Months Ended June 30,				Increase/(Decrease)
2013		2012
$	918	$	5	$	913	18,260.0	%

 Income from discontinued operations, net of tax, includes the results of operations for our sold radio stations (or stations subject to a local marketing agreement). Income from discontinued operations, net of tax, was $918,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2013, compared to $5,000 for the same period in 2012. The activity for the six months ended June 30, 2013, resulted primarily from the sale of our Columbus, Ohio radio station, WJKR-FM (The Jack, 98.9 FM)  in February 2013, which resulted in a gain of $893,000.

Noncontrolling interests in income of subsidiaries

Six Months Ended June 30,				Increase/(Decrease)
2013		2012
$	11,353	$	7,854	$	3,499	44.6	%

 The increase in noncontrolling interests in income of subsidiaries was due primarily to greater net income generated by TV One and Reach Media during the six months ended June 30, 2013, compared to the same period in 2012.

 Other Data

Station operating income

Station operating income increased to approximately $81.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, compared to approximately $74.5 million for the comparable period in 2012, an increase of $7.1 million or 9.6%. This increase was primarily due to greater TV One station operating income for the six months ended June 30, 2013, versus the same period in 2012, due to a larger number of subscribers as well as organic growth. TV One generated approximately $33.7 million of station operating income during the six months ended June 30, 2013, compared to $27.7 million during the six months ended June 30, 2012.

Station operating income margin

Station operating income margin increased to 37.3% for the six months ended June 30, 2013, from 35.7% for the comparable period in 2012. The margin increase was primarily attributable to TV One’s greater station operating margin of 45.7% for six months ended June 30, 2013, compared to 43.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2012.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our primary source of liquidity is cash provided by operations and, to the extent necessary, borrowings available under our senior credit facility and other debt or equity financing.

Credit Facilities

On March 31, 2011, the Company entered into a senior secured credit facility (the “2011 Credit Agreement”)  with a syndicate of banks and simultaneously borrowed $386.0 million to retire all outstanding obligations under the Company’s previous amended and restated credit agreement and to fund our obligation with respect to a capital call initiated by TV One.  The total amount available under the 2011 Credit Agreement is $411.0 million, consisting of a $386.0 million senior bank term debt that matures on March 31, 2016, and a $25.0 million revolving loan facility that matures on March 31, 2015. Borrowings under the credit facilities are subject to compliance with certain covenants including, but not limited to, certain financial covenants. Proceeds from the credit facilities can be used for working capital, capital expenditures made in the ordinary course of business, its common stock repurchase program, permitted direct and indirect investments and other lawful corporate purposes. On December 19, 2012, the Company entered into an amendment to the 2011 Credit Agreement (the “December 2012 Amendment”). The December 2012 Amendment: (i)  modifies financial covenant levels with respect to the Company's total-leverage, secured-leverage, and interest-coverage ratios; (ii)  increases the amount of cash the Company can net for determination of its net indebtedness tests; and (iii)  extends the time for certain of the 2011 Credit Agreement's call premium while reducing the time for its later and lower premium.

The 2011 Credit Agreement, as amended, contains affirmative and negative covenants that the Company is required to comply with, including:

(a) maintaining an interest coverage ratio of no less than:

§	1.10 to 1.00 on December 31, 2012, and the last day of each fiscal quarter through December 31, 2013;
§	1.20 to 1.00 on March 31, 2014, and the last day of each fiscal quarter through September 30, 2014;
§	1.25 to 1.00 on December 31, 2014, and the last day of each fiscal quarter through September 30, 2015; and
§	1.50 to 1.00 on December 31, 2015, and the last day of each fiscal quarter thereafter.

(b)    maintaining a senior secured leverage ratio of no greater than:

§	4.50 to 1.00 on September 30, 2012, and the last day of each fiscal quarter through December 31, 2013;
§	4.25 to 1.00 on March 31, 2014, and the last day of each fiscal quarter through June 30, 2014;
§	4.00 to 1.00 on September  30, 2014;
§	3.75 to 1.00 on December 31, 2014;
§	3.25 to 1.00 on March 31, 2015, and the last day of each fiscal quarter through September 30, 2015; and
§	2.75 to 1.00 on December 31, 2015, and the last day of each fiscal quarter thereafter.

(c)    maintaining a total leverage ratio of no greater than:

§	8.50 to 1.00 on December 31, 2012, and the last day of each fiscal quarter through December 31, 2013;
§	8.25 to 1.00 on March 31, 2014, and June 30, 2014;
§	8.00 to 1.00 on September 30, 2014;
§	7.50 to 1.00 on December 31, 2014;
§	6.50 to 1.00 on March 31, 2015, and the last day of each fiscal quarter through September 30, 2015; and
§	6.00 to 1.00 on December 31, 2015, and the last day of each fiscal quarter thereafter.

(d)    limitations on:

§	liens;
§	sale of assets;
§	payment of dividends; and
§	mergers.

In accordance with the 2011 Credit Agreement, as amended, the calculations for the ratios above do not include the operating results and related debt of TV One.

As of June 30, 2013, the Company was in compliance with all of its financial covenants under the 2011 Credit Agreement, as amended.  

Under the terms of the 2011 Credit Agreement, as amended, interest on base rate loans is payable quarterly and interest on LIBOR loans is payable monthly or quarterly. The base rate is equal to the greater of: (i) the prime rate; (ii) the Federal Funds Effective Rate plus 0.50%; or (iii) the LIBOR Rate for a one-month period plus 1.00%.  The applicable margin on the 2011 Credit Agreement is between (i)  4.50% and 5.50% on the revolving portion of the facility and (ii)  5.00% (with a base rate floor of 2.5% per annum)  and 6.00% (with a LIBOR floor of 1.5% per annum)  on the term portion of the facility. The average interest rate was 7.50% for the three months ended June 30, 2013. Quarterly installments of 0.25%, or $960,000, of the principal balance on the term loan are payable on the last day of each March, June, September and December.

As of June 30, 2013, the Company had approximately $24.0 million of borrowing capacity under its revolving credit facility. After taking into consideration the financial covenants under the 2011 Credit Agreement, as amended, approximately $24.0 million was available to be borrowed.

As of June 30, 2013, the Company had outstanding approximately $375.4 million on its term credit facility. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company repaid approximately $1.0 million and $1.9 million, respectively under the 2011 Credit Agreement, as amended. According to the terms of the Credit Agreement, as amended, there was no term loan principal repayment based on its December 31, 2012 excess cash flow calculation. The original issue discount is being reflected as an adjustment to the carrying amount of the debt obligation and amortized to interest expense over the term of the credit facility.

Senior Subordinated Notes

On November 24, 2010, we issued $286.8 million of our 12¹/₂%/15% Senior Subordinated Notes due May 2016 (the “12¹/₂%/15% Senior Subordinated Notes due May 2016”)  in a private placement and exchanged and then cancelled approximately $97.0 million of $101.5 million in aggregate principal amount outstanding of our 8⅞% senior subordinated notes due 2011 (the “2011 Notes”)  and approximately $199.3 million of $200.0 million in aggregate principal amount outstanding of our 6³/₈% Senior Subordinated Notes that matured in February 2013 (the “2013 Notes” and the 2013 Notes together with the 2011 Notes, the “Prior Notes”).  We entered into supplemental indentures in respect of each of the Prior Notes which waived any and all existing defaults and events of default that had arisen or may have arisen that may be waived and eliminated substantially all of the covenants in each indenture governing the Prior Notes, other than the covenants to pay principal and interest on the Prior Notes when due, and eliminated or modified the related events of default. Subsequently, all remaining outstanding 2011 Notes were repurchased pursuant to the indenture governing the 2011 Notes, effective as of December 24, 2010.

 

58

 

As of June 30, 2013, the Company had outstanding $327.0 million of our 12¹/₂%/15% Senior Subordinated Notes due May 2016. The 12¹/₂%/15% Senior Subordinated Notes due May 2016 had a carrying value of $327.0 million and a fair value of approximately $327.0 million as of June 30, 2013. The fair values were determined based on the trading value of the instruments as of the reporting date.

Interest payments under the terms of the 6³/₈% Senior Subordinated Notes that matured in February 2013, were due in February and August.  Based on the $747,000 principal balance of the 6³/₈% Senior Subordinated Notes outstanding at December 31, 2012, interest payments of $24,000 were paid each February and August through February 2013.

Interest on the 12¹/₂%/15% Senior Subordinated Notes was initially payable in cash, or at our election, partially in cash and partially through the issuance of additional 12¹/₂%/15% Senior Subordinated Notes (a “PIK Election”)  on a quarterly basis in arrears on February 15, May 15, August 15 and November 15, commencing on February 15, 2011.  We made a PIK Election with respect to interest accruing up to but not including May 15, 2012. With respect to interest accruing from and after May 15, 2012, such interest accrues at a rate of 12¹/₂% payable in cash.

Interest on the 12¹/₂%/15% Senior Subordinated Notes due May 2016 accrued from the date of original issuance or, if interest had already been paid, from the date it was most recently paid.  Interest accrues for each quarterly period at a rate of 12¹/₂% for such quarterly period that interest is paid fully in cash.  However, during the period the PIK Election was in effect, the interest paid in cash and the interest paid-in-kind by issuance of additional 12¹/₂%/15% Senior Subordinated Notes due May 2016 (“PIK Notes”)  accrued for such quarterly period at 6.0% cash per annum and 9.0% PIK per annum.

A PIK Election remained in effect until May 14, 2012. Beginning on May 15, 2012, interest accrued at a rate of 12¹/₂% and was payable wholly in cash and the Company no longer had an option to pay any portion of its interest through the issuance of PIK Notes. During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company issued approximately $14.2 million of additional 12¹/₂%/15% Senior Subordinated Notes in accordance with the PIK Election that was in effect through May 14, 2012.

The indentures governing the Company’s 12¹/₂%/15% Senior Subordinated Notes also contain covenants that restrict, among other things, the ability of the Company to incur additional debt, purchase common 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 Company conducts a portion of its business through its subsidiaries. Certain of the Company’s subsidiaries have fully and unconditionally guaranteed the Company’s 12¹/₂%/15% Senior Subordinated Notes, the 6³/₈% Senior Subordinated Notes and the Company’s obligations under the 2011 Credit Agreement, as amended.

The following table summarizes the interest rates in effect with respect to our debt as of June 30, 2013:

Type of Debt	Amount Outstanding		Applicable Interest Rate
	(In millions)
Senior bank term debt, net of original issue discount (at variable rates)(1)	$	370.8		7.50	%
121/2 %/15% Senior Subordinated Notes (fixed rate)	$	327.0		12.50	%
10% Senior Secured TV One Notes due March 2016 (fixed rate)	$	119.0		10.00	%

(1) Subject to variable Libor plus a spread that is incorporated into the applicable interest rate set forth above.

TV One issued $119.0 million in senior secured notes on February 25, 2011. The notes were issued in connection with the repurchase of its equity interest from certain financial investors and TV One management. The notes bear interest at 10.0% per annum, which is payable monthly, and the entire principal amount is due on March 15, 2016.

The following table provides a comparison of our statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012:

	2013		2012
	(In thousands)
Net cash flows provided by operating activities	$	4,923	$	18,182
Net cash flows used in investing activities	$	(3,235)	$	(1,675)
Net cash flows used in by financing activities	$	(18,720)	$	(9,686)

Net cash flows provided by operating activities were approximately $4.9 million and $18.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Cash flow from operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2013, decreased from the prior year primarily due to an increase in the accounts receivable balance, partially due to higher revenues as well as the timing of collections. In addition, there were higher cash payments for content assets during the first six months of 2013 compared to the same period in 2012.

Net cash flows used in investing activities were approximately $3.2 million and $1.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Capital expenditures, including digital tower and transmitter upgrades, and deposits for station equipment and purchases were approximately $5.9 million and $6.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Proceeds from sales of investment securities were $753,000 and approximately $5.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Proceeds from sale of discontinued operations were approximately $4.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013. Purchases of investment securities were approximately $2.1 million and $530,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Net cash flows used in financing activities were approximately $18.7 million and $9.7 million for the six months June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company repaid approximately $1.9 million and $3.9 million, respectively, in outstanding debt. In addition, during the six months ended June 30, 2013, we repurchased $68,331 of our Class A Common Stock and $4,188,625 of our Class D Common Stock. TV One paid approximately $11.8 million and $5.8 million in dividends to noncontrolling interest shareholders for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Credit Rating Agencies

Our corporate credit ratings by Standard & Poor's Rating Services and Moody's Investors Service are speculative-grade and have been downgraded and upgraded at various times during the last several years. Any reductions in our credit ratings could increase our borrowing costs, reduce the availability of financing to us or increase our cost of doing business or otherwise negatively impact our business operations.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 - Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies of the consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended by Form 10-K/A. We prepare our consolidated financial statements in conformity 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. In Management’s Discussion and Analysis contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended by Form 10-K/A, for the year ended December 31, 2012, we summarized the policies and estimates that we believe 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. There have been no material changes to our existing accounting policies or estimates since we filed our Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended by Form 10-K/A, for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Goodwill and Radio Broadcasting Licenses

Impairment Testing

We have made several radio station acquisitions in the past for which a significant portion of the purchase price was allocated to goodwill and radio broadcasting licenses. Goodwill exists whenever the purchase price exceeds the fair value of tangible and identifiable intangible net assets acquired in business combinations. As of June 30, 2013, the Company had approximately $662.8 million in broadcast licenses and $272.0 million in goodwill, which totaled $934.8 million, and represented approximately 65.4% of our total assets. Therefore, we believe estimating the fair value of goodwill and radio broadcasting licenses is a critical accounting estimate because of the significance of their carrying values in relation to our total assets. We recorded an impairment charge of approximately $9.8 million against our radio broadcasting licenses during the three months ended June 30, 2013, and we recorded an impairment charge of approximately $11.2 million against our radio broadcasting licenses during the six months ended June 30, 2013. We recorded an impairment charge of $313,000 against our radio broadcasting licenses during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012.

We test for impairment annually, or when events or changes in circumstances or other conditions suggest impairment may have occurred. Our annual impairment testing is performed for assets owned as of October 1. Impairment exists when the carrying value of these assets exceeds its respective fair value. When the carrying value exceeds fair value, an impairment amount is charged to operations for the excess.

Valuation of Broadcasting Licenses

We utilize the services of a third-party valuation firm to provide independent analysis when evaluating the fair value of our radio broadcasting licenses and reporting units. The testing for radio broadcasting licenses is performed at the unit of accounting level as determined by ASC 350, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other.” In our case, each unit of accounting is a clustering of radio stations into one geographical market. We use the income approach to value broadcasting licenses, which involves a 10-year model that incorporates several variables, including, but not limited to: (i)  estimated discounted cash flows of a hypothetical market participant; (ii)  estimated radio market revenue and growth projections; (iii)  estimated market share and revenue for the hypothetical participant; (iv)  likely media competition within the market; (v)  estimated start-up costs and losses incurred in the early years; (vi)  estimated profit margins and cash flows based on market size and station type; (vii)  anticipated capital expenditures; (viii)  probable future terminal values; (ix)  an effective tax rate assumption; and (x)  a discount rate based on the weighted-average cost of capital for the radio broadcast industry. In calculating the discount rate, we considered: (i)  the cost of equity, which includes estimates of the risk-free return, the long-term market return, small stock risk premiums and industry beta; (ii)  the cost of debt, which includes estimates for corporate borrowing rates and tax rates; and (iii)  estimated average percentages of equity and debt in capital structures. Since our October 2012 annual assessment, we have not made any changes to the methodology for valuing broadcasting licenses.

During the first and second quarters of 2013, the total market revenue growth for certain markets in which we operate was below that used in our 2012 annual impairment testing. We deemed that to be an impairment indicator that warranted interim impairment testing of certain market’s radio broadcasting licenses, which we performed as of March 31, 2013, and June 30, 2013. The Company recorded an impairment charge of approximately $1.4 million related to our Cincinnati FCC radio broadcasting licenses during the first quarter of 2013. In addition, the Company recorded an impairment charge of approximately $9.8 million related to our Philadelphia, Cincinnati and Cleveland radio broadcasting licenses during the second quarter of 2013. The remaining radio broadcasting licenses that were tested during the second quarter of 2013 were not impaired.

During the second quarter of 2012, the total market revenue growth for certain markets was below that used in our 2011 annual impairment testing. We deemed that to be an impairment indicator that warranted interim impairment testing of certain of our radio broadcasting licenses, which we performed as of June 30, 2012. The Company recorded an impairment charge of $313,000 related to our Charlotte radio broadcasting licenses. The remaining radio broadcasting licenses that were tested during the second quarter of 2012 were not impaired. The Company completed its annual impairment testing as of October 1, 2012, and concluded that our radio broadcasting licenses were not impaired. Below are some of the key assumptions used in the income approach model for estimating broadcasting licenses fair values for all annual impairment assessments and interim impairment assessments where impairment was identified, since January 2012.

61

 

	June 30,			October 1,			March 31,			June 30,
Radio Broadcasting Licenses	2012 (a)			2012			2013 (a)			2013 (a)
Pre-tax impairment charge (in millions)	$	0.3		$	—		$	1.4		$	9.8
Discount Rate		10.0	%		10.0	%		10.0	%		10.5	%
Year 1 Market Revenue Growth Rate Range		1.0% -3.0	%		1.0% -2.0	%		1.0	%		2.0	%
Long-term Market Revenue Growth Rate Range (Years 6 – 10)		1.0% - 2.0	%		1.0% -2.0	%		1.5	%		1.5% -2.0	%
Mature Market Share Range		5.8% - 15.6	%		0.7% - 27.4	%		8.6	%		8.6% - 15.1	%
Operating Profit Margin Range		29.1% - 48.0	%		19.6% - 47.7	%		31.4	%		32.6% - 34.4	%

(a) Reflects only key assumptions used in the interim testing for certain units of accounting.

Several of the licenses in our units of accounting have no or limited excess of fair values over their respective carrying values. Should our estimates, assumptions, or events or circumstances for any upcoming valuations worsen in the units with no or limited fair value cushion, additional license impairments may be needed in the future.

Valuation of Goodwill

The impairment testing of goodwill is performed at the reporting unit level. As of December 31, 2012, the Company had 20 reporting units, which were comprised of the 16 radio markets that we own and/or operate and four other business divisions. In testing for the impairment of goodwill, with the assistance of a third-party valuation firm, we primarily rely on the income approach. The approach involves a 10-year model with similar variables as described above for broadcasting licenses, except that the discounted cash flows are generally based on the Company’s estimated and projected market revenue, market share and operating performance for its reporting units, instead of those for a hypothetical participant. The Company is not applying the qualitative assessment as allowed by ASU 2011-08. We follow a two-step process to evaluate if a potential impairment exists for goodwill. The first step of the process involves estimating the fair value of each reporting unit. If the reporting unit’s fair value is less than its carrying value, a second step is performed to allocate the fair value of the reporting unit to the individual assets and liabilities of the reporting unit in order to determine the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill as of the impairment assessment date. Any excess of the carrying value of the goodwill over the implied fair value of the goodwill is written off as a charge to operations. Since our annual assessment, we have not made any changes to the methodology of valuing or allocating goodwill when determining the carrying values of the radio markets, Reach Media, Interactive One or TV One. Due to the fact that there was an impairment charge recognized for certain FCC licenses, we deemed to that to be an impairment indicator and as such, we performed an interim analysis for certain radio markets’ goodwill. No goodwill impairment was noted during the three or six months ended June 30, 2013. There were no impairment indicators noted for the three or six months ended June 30, 2012.

As part of our annual testing, when arriving at the estimated fair values for radio broadcasting licenses and goodwill, we also performed a reasonableness test by comparing our overall average implied multiple based on our cash flow projections and fair values to recently completed sales transactions, and by comparing our fair value estimates to the market capitalization of the Company. The results of these comparisons confirmed that the fair value estimates resulting from our annual assessment for 2012 were reasonable.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-04, which provides a consistent definition of fair value and ensures that the fair value measurement and disclosure requirements are similar between GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. ASU 2011-04 changes certain fair value measurement principles and enhances the disclosure requirements particularly for Level 3 fair value measurements. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2012, and it did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-05, “Presentation of Comprehensive Income,” which was subsequently modified in December 2011 by ASU 2011-12, “Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to the Presentation of Reclassifications of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05.” This ASU amends existing presentation and disclosure requirements concerning comprehensive income, most significantly by requiring that comprehensive income be presented with net income in a continuous financial statement, or in a separate but consecutive financial statement. The provisions of this ASU (as modified)  are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements, other than presentation and disclosure.

In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-08, which provides companies with an option to perform a qualitative assessment that may allow them to skip the two-step impairment test. ASU 2011-08 amends existing guidance by giving an entity the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If this is the case, companies will need to perform a more detailed two-step goodwill impairment test which is used to identify potential goodwill impairments and to measure the amount of goodwill impairment losses to be recognized, if any. ASU 2011-08 is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2012, and it did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-02, which provides companies the option to perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired rather than calculating the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset. ASU 2012-02 is effective prospectively for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2013, and it did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-02, “Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income,” which adds new disclosure requirements for items reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income. ASU 2013-02 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2012. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2013, and it did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

CAPITAL AND COMMERICAL COMMITMENTS:

Radio Broadcasting Licenses

Each of the Company’s 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 Company’s radio broadcasting licenses expire at various times through August 1, 2021. Although the Company may apply to renew its radio broadcasting licenses, third parties may challenge the Company’s renewal applications. The Company is not aware of any facts or circumstances that would prevent the Company from having its current licenses renewed.

Indebtedness

We have several debt instruments outstanding within our corporate structure. The total amount available under our 2011 Credit Agreement is $411.0 million, consisting of a $386.0 million senior bank term debt that matures on March 31, 2016, and a $25.0 million revolving loan facility that matures on March 31, 2015. We also have outstanding $327.0 million in our 12¹/₂%/15% Senior Subordinated Notes due May 2016. Finally, TV One issued $119.0 million in senior secured notes on February 25, 2011. The notes were issued in connection with the repurchase of its equity interest from certain financial investors and TV One management. The notes bear interest at 10.0% per annum, which is payable monthly, and the entire principal amount is due on March 15, 2016. See “Liquidity and Capital Resources.”  

Royalty Agreements

Effective December 31, 2009, our radio music license agreements with the two largest performance rights organizations, American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (“ASCAP”)  and Broadcast Music, Inc. (“BMI”)  expired. The Radio Music License Committee (“RMLC”), which negotiates music licensing fees for most of the radio industry with ASCAP and BMI, at that time, reached an agreement with these organizations on a temporary fee schedule that reflected a provisional discount of 7.0% against 2009 fee levels. The temporary fee reductions became effective in January 2010. In May 2010 and June 2010, the U.S. District Court’s judge charged with determining the licenses fees ruled to further reduce interim fees paid to ASCAP and BMI, respectively, down approximately another 11.0% from the previous temporary fees negotiated with the RMLC. In January 2012, the U.S. District Court approved a settlement between RMLC and ASCAP. The settlement determined the amount to be paid to ASCAP for usage through 2016. In addition, stations received a credit for overpayments made in 2010 and 2011 to ASCAP. In June 2012, RMLC and BMI reached a settlement agreement. The settlement covers the period through 2016 and determined a new fee structure based on percentage of revenue. In addition, stations received a credit for overpayments made in 2010 and 2011 to BMI.

 

63

 

The Company has entered into other fixed and variable fee music license agreements with other performance rights organizations, which expire as late as December 2016. In connection with all performance rights organization agreements, including ASCAP and BMI, the Company incurred expenses of approximately $2.5 million and $4.8 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2013, respectively, and approximately $2.6 million and $5.4 million, respectively, for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2012.

Lease obligations

We have non-cancelable operating leases for office space, studio space, broadcast towers and transmitter facilities that expire over the next 18 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 six years.

Reach Media Noncontrolling Interest Shareholders’ Put Rights

Beginning on February 28, 2012, the noncontrolling interest shareholders of Reach Media had an annual right to require Reach Media to purchase all or a portion of their shares at the then current fair market value for such shares (the “Put Right”).   Beginning in 2012, this annual right was exercisable for a 30-day period beginning February 28 of each year. The purchase price for such shares may be paid in cash and/or registered Class D Common Stock of Radio One, at the discretion of Radio One. On December 31, 2012, Reach Media and its noncontrolling interest shareholders amended the shareholder’s agreement governing their relationship. As part of that amendment, the noncontrolling interest shareholders agreed to delay the Put Right until January 1, 2018. The terms of the Put Right remain the same in all other respects.

64

 

(3)

Includes employment contracts, severance obligations, on-air talent contracts, consulting agreements, equipment rental agreements, programming related agreements, and other general operating agreements. Also includes contracts that TV One has entered into to acquire entertainment programming rights and programs from distributors and producers.  These contracts relate to their content assets as well as prepaid programming related agreements.

(4)

Represents $119.0 million issued by TV One in senior secured notes on February 25, 2011.  The notes were issued in connection with the repurchase of equity interests from certain financial investors and TV One management.  The notes bear interest at 10.0% per annum, which is payable monthly, and the entire principal amount is due on March 15, 2016.

Other Contingencies

The Company has been named as a defendant in several legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. It is management’s opinion, after consultation with its legal counsel, that the outcome of these claims will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of June 30, 2013, the Company had four standby letters of credit totaling $1.0 million in connection with our annual insurance policy renewals and real estate leases.

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Company’s 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 the Company, we believe that the provision of such promotion is fair.  During the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, Radio One did not make any payments, to or on behalf of Music One. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, Radio One paid $37,000 and $37,000, respectively, to or on behalf of Music One, primarily for talent appearances, travel reimbursement and sponsorships. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company did not provide any advertising services to Music One. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company provided advertising services to Music One in the amounts of $0 and $1,000, respectively. There were no cash, trade or no-charge orders placed by Music One for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012.

65

Item 3:  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

For quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk affecting Radio One, see Item 7A: “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended on Form 10-K/A, for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012.  Our exposure related to market risk has not changed materially since December 31, 2012.

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of disclosure 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 the Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures are ineffective in timely alerting them to material information required to be included in our periodic SEC reports. Disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, are controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.

In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives and management necessarily was required to apply 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 controls objectives. Our management, including our CEO and CFO, has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are ineffective in reaching that level of reasonable assurance.

Remediation of an Identified Material Weakness

On August 19, 2013, the audit committee of the board of directors of Radio One, Inc. (the “Company”) and management of the Company concluded, after discussion with the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, Ernst and Young, that the consolidated financial statements in its previously filed quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2013 (the “First Quarter 10-Q”) and in its annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012 (the “2012 10-K”), should no longer be relied upon as a result of misclassifications of certain items in the notes included in those financial statements. The misclassifications, which have no impact on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets, consolidated statements of operations, consolidated statements of comprehensive income, consolidated statements of changes in equity or consolidated statements of cash flows for any previously reported period, relate to: (i) including TV One, LLC (“TV One”) in the “Radio One, Inc.” column in the condensed consolidating financial statements in each of the 2012 10-K and the First Quarter 10-Q although TV One is a non-guarantor subsidiary of the Company under its outstanding notes registered under the Securities Act of 1933; (ii) including Reach Media, Inc. (“Reach Media”) in the “Radio One, Inc.” column in the condensed consolidating financial statements in the 2012 10-K although Reach Media was a non-guarantor subsidiary for that reporting period; and (iii) after Reach Media became a guarantor under the Company’s outstanding registered notes on February 14, 2013, including Reach Media in the “Combined Guarantor Subsidiaries” column in the condensed consolidating financial statements in the First Quarter 10-Q and the comparative period in 2012 rather than in a separate column for “non-wholly owned guarantor subsidiaries”. Further, the Company has determined that separate financial statements of Reach Media should have been included in the First Quarter 10-Q because it is not wholly owned by the Company.

During the second quarter of 2013, we identified the following material weakness in our internal controls over financial reporting:

⋅ The Company did not maintain internal controls with regard to preparation and review of the condensed consolidating financial statements of guarantors in the footnotes to its previously filed financial statements in its quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2013 and in its annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

66

The Company will restate its condensed consolidating footnote in its 2012 10-K and First Quarter 10-Q to correct the above matters. Additionally, we will revise our disclosures in Item 9(a) and 4(a), respectively, to identify this material weakness.

We are taking the following actions to remediate this material weakness:

⋅	Restructured the Finance and Accounting functions and engaged additional resources with the appropriate depth of experience for our Finance and Accounting departments
⋅	Updated accounting policies and procedures to ensure that accounting personnel have sufficient guidance to remediate the previously communicated weakness and to appropriately account for transactions
⋅	Implemented a required senior management, legal and accounting review to specifically address all new disclosures and related financial information

Management will test the design and operating effectiveness of the newly implemented controls in future periods.

Changes in internal control over financial reporting

Management has evaluated, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, whether any changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our last fiscal quarter have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. As described above under “Remediation of an Identified Material Weakness”, there were changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2013 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

67

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.  Legal Proceedings

Legal Proceedings

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.

Item 1A.  Risk Factors

In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the risk factors discussed in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended on Form 10-K/A, for the year ended December 31, 2012 (the “2012 Annual Report”), which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. The risks described in our 2012 Annual Report, as updated by our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, are not the only risks facing our Company.  Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us, or that we currently deem to be immaterial, may also materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results. The risk factors set forth below are in addition to those in the 2012 Annual Report.

Disruptions or security breaches of our information technology infrastructure could interfere with our operations, compromise customer information and expose us to liability, possibly causing our business and reputation to suffer.

Any internal technology error or failure impacting systems hosted internally at our data centers or externally at third party locations, or large scale external interruption in technology infrastructure we depend on, such as power, telecommunications or the internet, may disrupt our technology network. Any individual, sustained or repeated failure of technology could impact our customer service and result in increased costs or reduced revenues. Our technology systems and related data may also be vulnerable to a variety of sources of interruption due to events beyond our control, including natural disasters, terrorist attacks, telecommunications failures, computer viruses, hackers and other security issues.

REACH MEDIA, INC.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.  ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

(a) Organization

Reach Media, Inc. (“Reach Media” or the “Company”) is a leading cross-platform media company with networks and syndicated talent reaching a predominantly adult African-American audience of 12 million on a weekly basis, through radio broadcasts, digital media, events and initiatives. The Company features highly popular syndicated radio shows including The Tom Joyner Morning Show, The Rickey Smiley Morning Show, The Russ Parr Morning Show, The Yolanda Adams Morning Show, The James Fortune Show, and The Al Sharpton Show.  The Company provides a strong digital presence through BlackAmericaWeb.com, websites for the syndicated talent, online streaming and mobile applications.  Integrated marketing opportunities related to family, education, health and inspirational initiatives are accented by the personality’s commitment to the community. The Company was founded in 2003 by Tom Joyner and CEO David Kantor, and is a subsidiary of Radio One, Inc. (“Radio One” or the “Parent Company”).

In February 2005, Radio One, Inc. acquired 51% of the common stock of Reach Media. In December 2009, the Parent Company’s ownership interest increased to 53.5% when Reach Media reacquired a noncontrolling interest from an unrelated third party. On December 31, 2012, the Parent Company further increased its ownership interest in Reach Media from 53.5% to 80% by purchasing additional shares from certain minority shareholders. Immediately after increasing its ownership in Reach Media to 80%, the Parent Company consolidated its syndication operations within Reach Media to leverage that platform to create the leading syndicated radio network targeted to the African-American audience. In connection with the consolidation, the Parent Company contributed its syndicated programming and combined its sales function associated with this programming with Reach Media. 

(b) Interim Financial Statements

The interim financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In management’s opinion, the interim financial data presented herein include all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year.

(c) Revenue Recognition

Reach Media primarily derives its revenue from the sale of advertising inventory in connection with its syndication agreements. The Company recognizes revenue for broadcast advertising when a commercial is broadcast and is reported, net of agency and outside sales representative commissions, in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 605, “Revenue Recognition.”  

(d) Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-08, which provides companies with an option to perform a qualitative assessment that may allow them to skip the two-step impairment test. ASU 2011-08 amends existing guidance by giving an entity the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If this is the case, companies will need to perform a more detailed two-step goodwill impairment test which is used to identify potential goodwill impairments and to measure the amount of goodwill impairment losses to be recognized, if any. ASU 2011-08 is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2012, and it did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements. 

In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-02, which provides companies the option to perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired rather than calculating the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset. ASU 2012-02 is effective prospectively for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2013, and it did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

(e) Fair Value Measurements

We report our financial and non-financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring and non-recurring basis under the provisions of ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures.” ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.

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

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

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

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

As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the fair values of our financial assets and liabilities are categorized as follows:

	Total		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
	(Unaudited)
	(In thousands)
As of June 30, 2013
Mezzanine equity subject to fair value measurement:
Redeemable noncontrolling interests (a)	$	11,865	$	—	$	—	$	11,865
As of December 31, 2012
Mezzanine equity subject to fair value measurement:
Redeemable noncontrolling interests (a)	$	12,853	$	—	$	—	$	12,853

(a)    The redeemable noncontrolling interest is measured at fair value using a discounted cash flow methodology. A third-party valuation firm assisted the Company in estimating the fair value. Significant inputs to the discounted cash flow analysis include forecasted operating results, discount rate and a terminal value.

The following table presents the changes in Level 3 liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis for the six months ended June 30, 2013:

	Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests
Balance at December 31, 2012	$	12,853
Change in enterprise fair value		(988)
Balance at June 30, 2013	$	11,865
The amount of total losses for the period included in earnings attributable to the change in unrealized losses relating to assets and liabilities still held at the reporting date	$	—

For Level 3 assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis, the significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurements were as follows:

			As of June 30, 2013			As of December 31, 2012			As of June 30, 2012
Level 3 liabilities	Valuation Technique	Significant Unobservable Inputs	Significant Unobservable Input Value
Redeemable noncontrolling interest	Discounted Cash Flow	Discount Rate		13.5	%		11.5	%		12.5	%
Redeemable noncontrolling interest	Discounted Cash Flow	Long-term Growth Rate		1.5	%		2.0	%		2.5	%

Any significant increases or decreases in discount rate or long-term growth rate inputs could result in significantly higher or lower fair value measurements.

Certain assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis using Level 3 inputs as defined in ASC 820.  These assets are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to fair value adjustments only in certain circumstances.  Included in this category are goodwill and other intangible assets, net, that are written down to fair value when they are determined to be impaired.

F-8

2.  GOODWILL:

Impairment Testing

In accordance with ASC 350, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other,” we do not amortize our goodwill. Instead, we perform a test for impairment annually or on an interim basis when events or changes in circumstances or other conditions suggest impairment may have occurred. Other intangible assets continue to be amortized on a straight-line basis over their useful lives. We perform our annual impairment test as of October 1 of each year.

Valuation of Goodwill

In testing for the impairment of goodwill, with the assistance of a third-party valuation firm, we primarily rely on the income approach. The approach involves a 10-year model that incorporates several variables, including, but not limited to: (i) estimated discounted cash flows; (ii) estimated revenue and growth projections; (iii) estimated profit margins and cash flows; (iv) anticipated capital expenditures; (v) probable future terminal values; (vi) an effective tax rate assumption; and (vii) a discount rate based on the weighted-average cost of capital. In calculating the discount rate, we considered: (i) the cost of equity, which includes estimates of the risk-free return, the long-term market return, small stock risk premiums and industry beta; (ii) the cost of debt, which includes estimates for corporate borrowing rates and tax rates; and (iii) estimated average percentages of equity and debt in capital structures. The discount rate used in this assessment reflects a premium for a riskier and broader media business, with a heavier concentration and significantly higher amount of programming content related intangible assets that are highly dependent on the on-air personality Tom Joyner.

The Company is not applying the qualitative assessment as allowed by ASU 2011-08. We follow a two-step process to evaluate if a potential impairment exists for goodwill. The first step of the process involves estimating the fair value of each reporting unit. If the reporting unit’s fair value is less than its carrying value, a second step is performed as per the guidance of ASC 805-10, “Business Combinations,” to allocate the fair value of the reporting unit to the individual assets and liabilities of the reporting unit in order to determine the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill as of the impairment assessment date. Any excess of the carrying value of the goodwill over the implied fair value of the goodwill is written off as a charge to operations. Since our annual assessment, we have not made any changes to the methodology of valuing or allocating goodwill when determining the carrying value of Reach Media. No goodwill impairment was noted during the six months ended June 30, 2013 and June 30, 2012. 

3.  INCOME TAXES:

The Company estimates the provision for income taxes, income tax liabilities, deferred tax assets and liabilities, and any valuation allowances in accordance with ASC 740, “Income Taxes,” as it relates to accounting for income taxes in interim periods. We estimate effective tax rates based on local tax laws and statutory rates, apportionment factors, taxable income for our filing jurisdictions and disallowable items, among other factors. Audits by the Internal Revenue Service or state and local tax authorities could yield different interpretations from our own, and differences between taxes recorded and taxes owed per our filed returns could cause us to record additional taxes.

The Company recorded a tax expense of approximately $472,000 on pre-tax income of approximately $470,000 for the six month period ended June 30, 2013, based on the annualized effective tax rate of approximately 42.0%. The difference between the effective rate for the period and the federal statutory rate of 35.0% primarily relates to state and local taxes, and prior year true-ups.

4.  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS:

The Company provides office facilities (including office space, telecommunications facilities, and office equipment) and employee-related services (including payroll, benefits, and human resources) to the Tom Joyner Foundation, Inc. (the “Foundation”), a 501(c)(3) entity, and to Tom Joyner, LTD. (“Limited”), Tom Joyner’s production company. Such services are provided as an accommodation to the Foundation and to Limited on a pass-through basis at cost. Under these arrangements, as of June 30, 2013, the Foundation owed nothing to Reach Media and Limited owed approximately $2,000 to Reach Media.

The Company operates the Tom Joyner Fantastic Voyage, a fund raising event for the Foundation. The terms of the agreement are that Reach Media provides all necessary operations for the Fantastic Voyage, that the Foundation reimburse the Company for all related expenses, and that the Foundation pay a fee plus a performance bonus to the Company. The fee is up to the first $1,000,000 after the Fantastic Voyage nets $250,000 to the Foundation. The balance of any operating income is earned by the Foundation less a performance bonus of 20% to the Company of any excess over $1,250,000. The Foundation’s remittances to the Company under the agreement are limited to its Fantastic Voyage-related cash revenues; the Company bears the risk should the Fantastic Voyage sustain a loss and bears all credit risk associated with the related customer cabin sales . For 2013, the Company’s revenues, expenses, and operating income for the Fantastic Voyage were approximately $7.2 million, $6.0 million, and $1.2 million, respectively; for 2012, $5.9 million, $4.9 million, and $1.0 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2013, the Foundation owed the Company $13,000 under the agreement.

Certain Radio One radio stations carry the syndicated programs featured by Reach Media.

5. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:

Other Contingencies

The Company has been named as a defendant in several legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. It is management’s opinion, after consultation with its legal counsel, that the outcome of these claims will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

Noncontrolling Interest Shareholders’ Put Rights

Beginning on February 28, 2012, the noncontrolling interest shareholders of Reach Media had an annual right to require Reach Media to purchase all or a portion of their shares at the then current fair market value for such shares (the “Put Right”).   Beginning in 2012, this annual right was exercisable for a 30-day period beginning February 28 of each year. The purchase price for such shares may be paid in cash and/or registered Class D Common Stock of Radio One, at the discretion of Radio One. On December 31, 2012, Reach Media and its noncontrolling interest shareholders amended the shareholder’s agreement governing their relationship. As part of that amendment, the noncontrolling interest shareholders agreed to delay the Put Right until January 1, 2018. The terms of the Put Right remain the same in all other respects.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following information should be read in conjunction with the Financial Statements and Notes thereto included elsewhere in this report.

Introduction

On December 31, 2012, the Parent Company increased its ownership interest in Reach Media from 53.5% to 80% by purchasing additional shares from certain minority shareholders. Immediately after increasing its ownership in Reach Media, the Parent Company consolidated its syndication operations within Reach Media to leverage that platform to create the leading syndicated radio network targeted to the African-American audience. In connection with the consolidation, the Parent Company contributed its syndicated programming and combined its sales function associated with this programming with Reach Media. 

Revenue

The Company primarily derives its revenue from the sale of advertising in connection with its syndicated radio shows. The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of advertising primarily and program sponsorships to national advertisers. Advertising revenue is affected primarily by the advertising rates that the shows are able to charge, as well as the overall demand for radio advertising time in the markets served. These rates are largely based on audience share in the demographic groups targeted by advertisers, the number of affiliates 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.

During the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, approximately 76.6% and 87.3%, respectively, of our net revenue was generated from the sale of advertising related specifically to the Tom Joyner Morning Show and related activities and events. During the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, approximately 69.0% and 89.1%, respectively, of our net revenue was generated from the sale of advertising related specifically to the Tom Joyner Morning Show and related activities and events. 

Expenses

Our significant expenses are: (i) employee salaries and commissions; (ii) talent expenses; (iii) marketing and promotional expenses; and (iv) rental of premises for office facilities and studios.

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 revenue:  Net revenue is recognized in the period in which advertisements are broadcast. Net revenue also includes revenue from sponsored events and other revenue.

(b) Station operating income:  Net income (loss) before depreciation and amortization, income taxes, interest (income) expense, other (income) expense and corporate expenses, 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 in the United States (“GAAP”). Nevertheless, station operating income is a significant basis used by our management to measure the operating performance of our business. Station operating income provides helpful information about our results of operations, apart from expenses associated with our fixed and long-lived intangible assets, income taxes and corporate overhead. 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 GAAP, 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 revenue. Station operating income margin is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP. Nevertheless, we believe that station operating income margin is a useful measure of our performance because it provides helpful information about our profitability as a percentage of our net revenue.

F-11

(d) EBITDA:  Earnings before interest income, interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization is commonly referred to in our business as “EBITDA.” EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles. However, we believe EBITDA is often a useful measure of a company’s operating performance and is a significant basis used by our management to measure the operating performance of our business. EBITDA does not purport to represent operating income or cash flow from operating activities, as those terms are defined under generally accepted accounting principles, and should not be considered as alternatives to those measurements as an indicator of our performance.

F-12

Summary of Performance

Net revenue

Three Months Ended June 30,				Increase/(Decrease)
2013		2012
$	18,015	$	8,546	$	9,469	110.8	%

During the three months ended June 30, 2013, we recognized approximately $18.0 million in net revenue compared to approximately $8.5 million during the same period in 2012. The increase is primary due to the impact of moving syndicated programming from Radio One to Reach Media effective January 1, 2013, and the timing of the “Tom Joyner Fantastic Voyage” which took place during the three months ended June 30, 2013, and generated revenue of approximately $7.2 million for Reach Media during that time. The “Tom Joyner Fantastic Voyage” took place during the first quarter of 2012. After adjusting for the timing difference for the “Tom Joyner Fantastic Voyage,” and the impact of moving the syndicated programming Reach Media’s revenue decreased 7.2% for the quarter ended June 30, 2013, compared to the same period in 2012. The decline was due primarily to a one time affiliate termination fee that occurred during the second quarter of 2012.

Programming and technical expenses include expenses associated primarily with on-air talent and the distribution and broadcast of programming content on affiliated radio stations. Programming and technical expenses also include expenses associated with our programming research activities. The increase in programming and technical expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2013, compared to the same period in 2012 is primary due to the impact of moving syndicated programming from Radio One to Reach Media effective January 1, 2013.

Selling, general and administrative expenses include expenses associated with our sales personnel, offices and facilities, marketing and promotional expenses, special events and sponsorships. Expenses to secure ratings data for our syndicated shows and visitors’ data for our websites are also included in selling, general and administrative expenses. In addition, selling, general and administrative expenses include expenses related to the advertising traffic (scheduling and insertion) functions. The increase for the three months ended June 30, 2013, compared to the same period in 2012 is primary due to the impact of moving syndicated programming from Radio One to Reach Media effective January 1, 2013, and the timing of the Company’s “Tom Joyner Fantastic Voyage” event, which was held in the second quarter of 2013 versus the first quarter of 2012. This event generated expenses of approximately $6.0 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2013.

Corporate expenses consist of expenses associated with our corporate offices and facilities, including personnel as well as other corporate overhead functions. The decrease in corporate expenses was primarily as a result of discontinuing a management fee payable to Radio One in 2012. In addition, there were lower employee compensation costs for the three months ended June 30, 2013 compared to the same period in 2012.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

Goodwill

Impairment Testing

In accordance with ASC 350, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other,” we do not amortize our goodwill. Instead, we perform a test for impairment annually or on an interim basis when events or changes in circumstances or other conditions suggest impairment may have occurred. Other intangible assets continue to be amortized on a straight-line basis over their useful lives. We perform our annual impairment test as of October 1 of each year.

Valuation of Goodwill

In testing for the impairment of goodwill, with the assistance of a third-party valuation firm, we primarily rely on the income approach. The approach involves a 10-year model with estimated and projected market revenue, market share and operating performance. The Company is not applying the qualitative assessment as allowed by ASU 2011-08. We follow a two-step process to evaluate if a potential impairment exists for goodwill. The first step of the process involves estimating the fair value of each reporting unit. If the reporting unit’s fair value is less than its carrying value, a second step is performed to allocate the fair value of the reporting unit to the individual assets and liabilities of the reporting unit in order to determine the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill as of the impairment assessment date. Any excess of the carrying value of the goodwill over the implied fair value of the goodwill is written off as a charge to operations. Since our annual assessment, we have not made any changes to the methodology of valuing or allocating goodwill when determining the carrying value of Reach Media. No goodwill impairment was noted during the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012. 

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-08, which provides companies with an option to perform a qualitative assessment that may allow them to skip the two-step impairment test. ASU 2011-08 amends existing guidance by giving an entity the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If this is the case, companies will need to perform a more detailed two-step goodwill impairment test which is used to identify potential goodwill impairments and to measure the amount of goodwill impairment losses to be recognized, if any. ASU 2011-08 is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2012, and it did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-02, which provides companies the option to perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired rather than calculating the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset. ASU 2012-02 is effective prospectively for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2013, and it did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

CAPITAL AND COMMERICAL COMMITMENTS:

We have non-cancelable operating leases for office space and studio space that expire over the next six years.

Operating Contracts and Agreements

We have other operating contracts and agreements including employment contracts, on-air talent contracts, equipment rental agreements and other general operating agreements that expire over the next six years.

Reach Media Noncontrolling Interest Shareholders’ Put Rights

Beginning on February 28, 2012, the noncontrolling interest shareholders of Reach Media had an annual right to require Reach Media to purchase all or a portion of their shares at the then current fair market value for such shares (the “Put Right”).   Beginning in 2012, this annual right was exercisable for a 30-day period beginning February 28 of each year. The purchase price for such shares may be paid in cash and/or registered Class D Common Stock of Radio One, at the discretion of Radio One. On December 31, 2012, Reach Media and its noncontrolling interest shareholders amended the shareholder’s agreement governing their relationship. As part of that amendment, the noncontrolling interest shareholders agreed to delay the Put Right until January 1, 2018. The terms of the Put Right remain the same in all other respects.

Other Contingencies

The Company has been named as a defendant in several legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. It is management’s opinion, after consultation with its legal counsel, that the outcome of these claims will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Company provides office facilities (including office space, telecommunications facilities, and office equipment) and employee-related services (including payroll, benefits, and human resources) to the Tom Joyner Foundation, Inc. (the “Foundation”), a 501(c)(3) entity, and to Tom Joyner, LTD. (“Limited”), Tom Joyner’s production company. Such services are provided as an accommodation to the Foundation and to Limited on a pass-through basis at cost. Under these arrangements, as of June 30, 2013, the Foundation owed nothing to Reach Media and Limited owed approximately $2,000 to Reach Media.

The Company operates the Tom Joyner Fantastic Voyage, a fund raising event for the Foundation. The terms of the agreement are that Reach Media provides all necessary operations for the Fantastic Voyage, that the Foundation reimburse the Company for all related expenses, and that the Foundation pay a fee plus a performance bonus to the Company. The fee is up to the first $1,000,000 after the Fantastic Voyage nets $250,000 to the Foundation. The balance of any operating income is earned by the Foundation less a performance bonus of 20% to the Company of any excess over $1,250,000. The Foundation’s remittances to the Company under the agreement are limited to its Fantastic Voyage-related cash revenues; the Company bears the risk should the Fantastic Voyage sustain a loss and bears all credit risk associated with the related customer cabin sales. For 2013, the Company’s revenues, expenses, and operating income for the Fantastic Voyage were approximately $7.2 million, $6.0 million, and $1.2 million, respectively; for 2012, $5.9 million, $4.9 million, and $1.0 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2013, the Foundation owed the Company $13,000 under the agreement.

Certain Radio One radio stations carry the syndicated programs featured by Reach Media.

Stock Repurchase Program

In January 2013, the Company’s board of directors authorized a repurchase of shares of the Company’s Class A and Class D common stock (the “January 2013 Repurchase Authorization”). Under the January 2013 Repurchase Authorization, the Company is authorized, but is not obligated, to repurchase up to $2.0 million worth of its Class A and/or Class D common stock. Subsequently, in May 2013, the Company’s board of directors authorized a further $1.5 million worth of stock repurchases (the “May 2013 Repurchase Authorization”). Thus, the aggregate amount authorized between the January 2013 Repurchase Authorization and the May 2013 Repurchase Authorization was $3.5 million. As of June 30, 2013, the Company had approximately $1.3 million remaining between the two authorizations with respect to its Class A and D stock. (See Note 13 – Subsequent Events). Repurchases will be made from time to time in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. The timing and extent of any repurchases will depend upon prevailing market conditions, the trading price of the Company’s Class A and/or Class D common stock and other factors, and subject to restrictions under applicable law. The Company executes upon the stock repurchase program in a manner consistent with market conditions and the interests of the stockholders, including maximizing stockholder value. During the three months ended June 30, 2013, the Company repurchased 1,166,300 shares of Class D common stock in the amount of $2,673,723 at an average price of $2.29 per share and 24,419 shares of Class A common stock in the amount of $57,306 at an average price of $2.35 per share. During the six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company repurchased 2,118,274 shares of Class D common stock in the amount of $4,188,625 at an average price of $1.98 per share and 31,569 shares of Class A common stock in the amount of $68,331 at an average price of $2.16 per share. During the six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company did not repurchase any Class A Common Stock or Class D Common Stock.

Stock Option and Restricted Stock Grant Plan

Under the Company’s 1999 Stock Option and Restricted Stock Grant Plan (“Plan”), the Company had the authority to issue up to 10,816,198 shares of Class D common stock and 1,408,099 shares of Class A common stock. The Plan expired March 10, 2009. The options previously issued under this plan are exercisable in installments determined by the compensation committee of the Company’s board of directors at the time of grant. These options expire as determined by the compensation 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.

A new stock option and restricted stock plan (the “2009 Stock Plan”) was approved by the stockholders at the Company’s annual meeting on December 16, 2009.  The terms of the 2009 Stock Plan are substantially similar to the prior Plan. The Company has the authority to issue up to 8,250,000 shares of Class D common stock under the 2009 Stock Plan. As of June 30, 2013, 4,614,627 shares of Class D common stock were available for grant under the 2009 Stock Plan.

The Company follows the provisions under ASC 718, “Compensation - Stock Compensation,” 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. These stock-based awards do not participate in dividends until fully vested. The fair value of stock options is determined using the Black-Scholes (“BSM”) valuation model.  Such fair value is recognized as an expense over the service period, net of estimated forfeitures, using the straight-line method. 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 number of stock awards 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.

The Company’s use of the BSM valuation model to calculate the fair value of stock-based awards incorporates various assumptions including volatility, expected life, and interest rates. For options granted, the BSM option-pricing model determines: (i) the term by using the simplified “plain-vanilla” method as allowed under SAB No. 110; (ii) a historical volatility over a period commensurate with the expected term, with the observation of the volatility on a daily basis; and (iii) a risk-free interest rate that was consistent with the expected term of the stock options and based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the grant.

Stock-based compensation expense for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, was $47,000 and $46,000, respectively, and for each of the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, was $90,000.

The Company did not grant any stock options during the six months ended June 30, 2013, or during the six months ended June 30, 2012.

Transactions and other information relating to stock options for the six months ended June 30, 2013, are summarized below:

	Number of Options		Weighted-Average Exercise Price		Weighted-Average Remaining Contractual Term (In Years)		Aggregate Intrinsic Value
Outstanding at December 31, 2012		4,630,000	$	8.17				—

Exercisable at June 30, 2013		4,555,000	$	8.29		3.18	$	1,980,405

The aggregate intrinsic value in the table above represents the difference between the Company’s stock closing price on the last day of trading during the six months ended June 30, 2013, 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 June 30, 2013. This amount changes based on the fair market value of the Company’s stock. There were no options exercised during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012. The number of options that vested during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, were 108,725. The number of options that vested during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, were 79,292 and 656,079, respectively.

As of June 30, 2013, $51,000 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to stock options is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 11 months. The stock option weighted-average fair value per share was $3.23 at June 30, 2013.

The Company granted 109,645 shares of restricted stock during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013. These restricted shares were issued to the Company’s non-executive directors as a part of their annual compensation package. Each of the five non-executive directors received 21,929 shares of restricted stock or $50,000 worth of restricted stock based upon the closing price of the Company’s Class D shares on June 14, 2013. These shares vest over a two year period in equal 50% installments. The Company did not grant shares of restricted stock during the six months ended June 30, 2012.

Transactions and other information relating to restricted stock grants for the six months ended June 30, 2013, are summarized below:

	Shares		Average Fair Value at Grant Date
Unvested at December 31, 2012		82,000	$	1.11
Grants		110,000	$	2.28
Vested		(25,000)	$	1.04
Forfeited/cancelled/expired		—	$	—
Unvested at June 30, 2013		167,000	$	1.89

The restricted stock grants were included in the Company’s outstanding share numbers on the effective date of grant. As of June 30, 2013, $280,000 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to restricted stock grants is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 14 months.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Organization, Consolidation, Basis of Presentation, Business Description and Accounting Policies [Text Block]

1.  ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

(a) Organization

 Radio One, Inc. (a Delaware corporation referred to as “Radio One”) and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) is an urban-oriented, multi-media company that primarily targets African-American and urban consumers. Our core business is our radio broadcasting franchise that is the largest radio broadcasting operation that primarily targets African-American and urban listeners. We currently own and/or operate 54 broadcast stations located in 16 urban markets in the United States.  While our primary source of revenue is the sale of local and national advertising for broadcast on our radio stations, our strategy is to operate the premier multi-media entertainment and information content provider targeting African-American and urban consumers. Thus, we have diversified our revenue streams by making acquisitions and investments in other complementary media properties. Our other media interests include our approximately 51.3% controlling ownership interest in TV One, LLC (“TV One”), an African-American targeted cable television network that we own with an affiliate of Comcast Corporation; our 80.0% controlling ownership interest in Reach Media, Inc. (“Reach Media”), which operates the Tom Joyner Morning Show and our other syndicated programming assets; and our ownership of Interactive One, LLC (“Interactive One”), an online platform serving the African-American community through social content, news, information, and entertainment websites, including News One, UrbanDaily and HelloBeautiful and online social networking websites, including BlackPlanet, MiGente and Asian Avenue.  Through our national multi-media presence, we provide advertisers with a unique and powerful delivery mechanism to the African-American and urban audiences.  

As of June 2011, our remaining Boston radio station was made the subject of a local marketing agreement (“LMA”) whereby we have made available, for a fee, air time on this station to another party. In addition, beginning as of November 1, 2012, our Columbus, Ohio radio station, WJKR-FM (The Jack, 98.9 FM) was also made the subject of an LMA, and on February 15, 2013, the Company sold that station’s assets.  The remaining assets and liabilities of stations sold and stations that we do not operate as they are the subject of an LMA have been classified as discontinued operations as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, and the results from operations of those stations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, have been reclassified as discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

As part of our consolidated financial statements, consistent with our financial reporting structure and how the Company currently manages its businesses, we have provided selected financial information on the Company’s four reportable segments: (i) Radio Broadcasting; (ii) Reach Media; (iii) Internet; and (iv) Cable Television. (See Note 9 – Segment Information.)

(b)  Interim Financial Statements

The interim consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In management’s opinion, the interim financial data presented herein include all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations.

Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year. This Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended on Form 10-K/A.

(c)  Financial Instruments

Financial instruments as of June 30, 2013, and December 31, 2012, consisted of cash and cash equivalents, investments, trade accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, long-term debt and redeemable noncontrolling interest. The carrying amounts approximated fair value for each of these financial instruments as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, except for the Company’s outstanding senior subordinated notes. The 6³/₈% Senior Subordinated Notes which were due and paid in full in February 2013 had a carrying value of $747,000 and a fair value of approximately $740,000 as of December 31, 2012. The 12¹/₂%/15% Senior Subordinated Notes due May 2016 had a carrying value of approximately $327.0 million and a fair value of approximately $327.0 million as of June 30, 2013, and a carrying value of approximately $327.0 million and a fair value of approximately $293.5 million as of December 31, 2012. The fair values, classified as Level 2, were determined based on the trading values of these instruments in an inactive market as of the reporting date. The Company’s 10% Senior Secured TV One Notes due March 2016 are classified as Level 3 since they are not market traded financial instruments.

(d)  Revenue Recognition

Within our Radio Broadcasting and Reach Media segments, the Company recognizes revenue for broadcast advertising when a commercial is broadcast and is reported, net of agency and outside sales representative commissions, in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 605, “Revenue Recognition.”  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. For our Radio Broadcasting and Reach Media segments, agency and outside sales representative commissions were approximately $8.3 million and $9.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Agency and outside sales representative commissions were approximately $15.2 million and $16.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Interactive One generates the majority of the Company’s internet revenue, and derives such revenue principally from advertising services on non-radio station branded websites, including advertising aimed at diversity recruiting. Advertising services include the sale of banner and sponsorship advertisements.  Advertising revenue is recognized either as impressions (the number of times advertisements appear in viewed pages) are delivered, when “click through” purchases are made or leads are generated, or ratably over the contract period, where applicable.

TV One, the driver of revenues in our Cable Television segment, derives advertising revenue from the sale of television air time to advertisers and recognizes revenue when the advertisements are run. TV One also receives affiliate fees and records revenue during the term of various affiliation agreements based on the most recent subscriber counts reported by the applicable affiliate.

(e) Launch Support

TV One has entered into certain affiliate agreements requiring various payments by TV One for launch support. Launch assets are assets used to initiate carriage under new affiliation agreements and are amortized over the term of the respective contracts. Amortization is recorded as a reduction to revenue to the extent that revenue is recognized from the vendor, and any excess amortization is recorded as launch support amortization expense. The weighted-average amortization period for launch support is approximately 10.9 years at each of June 30, 2013, and December 31, 2012. The remaining weighted-average amortization period for launch support is 1.9 years and 2.4 years as of June 30, 2013, and December 31, 2012, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, launch asset amortization of approximately $2.5 million and $5.0 million, respectively, was recorded as a reduction to revenue. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, launch asset amortization of approximately $2.4 million and $4.9 million, respectively, was recorded as a reduction to revenue.

(f)  Barter Transactions

The Company provides advertising time in exchange for programming content and certain services and accounts for these exchanges in accordance with ASC 605, “Revenue Recognition.” The terms of these exchanges generally permit the Company to preempt such time in favor of advertisers who purchase time in exchange for cash. The Company includes the value of such exchanges in both 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 three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, barter transaction revenues were $558,000 and $711,000, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, barter transaction revenues were approximately $1.2 million and $1.4 million, respectively. Additionally, barter transaction costs were reflected in programming and technical expenses and selling, general and administrative expenses of $540,000 and $670,000 and $18,000 and $41,000, for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, barter transaction costs were reflected in programming and technical expenses and selling, general and administrative expenses of approximately $1.1 million and $1.4 million and $86,000 and $83,000, respectively.

(g)  Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of shares of common stock (Classes A, B, C and D) outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of shares of common stock plus the effect of dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method.  The Company’s potentially dilutive securities include stock options and restricted stock. Diluted earnings per share considers the impact of potentially dilutive securities except in periods in which there is a net loss, as the inclusion of the potentially dilutive common shares would have an anti-dilutive effect.

The following table sets forth the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share from continuing operations (in thousands, except share and per share data):

	Three Months Ended  June 30,				Six Months Ended  June 30,

Denominator for diluted net (loss) income per share - weighted-average outstanding shares		48,737,941		50,124,418		49,299,953		49,997,752
Net (loss) income attributable to common stockholders per share - basic	$	(0.29)	$	0.85	$	(0.67)	$	(0.73)
Net (loss) income attributable to common stockholders per share - diluted	$	(0.29)	$	0.85	$	(0.67)	$	(0.73)

All stock options and restricted stock awards were excluded from the diluted calculation for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, and for the six months ended June 30, 2012, as their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.  The following table summarizes the potential common shares excluded from the diluted calculation.

	Three Months Ended		Six Months Ended		Six Months Ended
	June 30, 2013		June 30, 2013		June 30, 2012
	(Unaudited)
	(In Thousands)
Stock options		4,630		4,630		4,712
Restricted stock		167		167		119

(h) Fair Value Measurements

We report our financial and non-financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring and non-recurring basis under the provisions of ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures.” ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.

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

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

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

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

As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the fair values of our financial assets and liabilities are categorized as follows:

	Total		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
	(Unaudited)
	(In thousands)
As of June 30, 2013
Assets subject to fair value measurement:
Corporate debt securities (a)	$	1,042	$	1,042	$	—	$	—

Mezzanine equity subject to fair value measurement:
Redeemable noncontrolling interests (d)	$	12,853	$	—	$	—	$	12,853

(a)    Where quoted market prices are available in an active market, securities are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are estimated using pricing models, quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics or discounted cash flows.

(b)   These balances are measured based on the estimated enterprise fair value of TV One. Significant inputs to the discounted cash flow analysis include forecasted operating results, discount rate and a terminal value. A third-party valuation firm assisted the Company in estimating TV One’s fair value. Significant inputs to the discounted cash flow analysis include forecasted operating results, discount rate and a terminal value. There are specific unit holders for which the enterprise fair value is fixed.

(c)   Pursuant to an employment agreement (the “Employment Agreement”) executed in April 2008, the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) is eligible to receive an award amount equal to 8% of any proceeds from distributions or other liquidity events in excess of the return of the Company’s aggregate investment in TV One. The Company reviews the factors underlying this award at the end of each quarter including the valuation of TV One and an assessment of the probability that the employment agreement will be renewed and contain this provision. There are probability factors included in the calculation of the award related to the likelihood that the award will be realized. The Company’s obligation to pay the award will be triggered only after the Company’s recovery of the aggregate amount of its capital contribution in TV One and only upon actual receipt of distributions of cash or marketable securities or proceeds from a liquidity event with respect to the Company’s membership interest in TV One. The CEO was fully vested in the award upon execution of the Employment Agreement, and the award lapses if the CEO voluntarily leaves the Company or is terminated for cause. A third-party valuation firm assisted the Company in estimating TV One’s fair value. Significant inputs to the discounted cash flow analysis include forecasted operating results, discount rate and a terminal value. The terms of the Employment Agreement remain in effect including eligibility for the TV One award.

(d)   The redeemable noncontrolling interest in Reach Media is measured at fair value using a discounted cash flow methodology.  A third-party valuation firm assisted the Company in estimating the fair value. Significant inputs to the discounted cash flow analysis include forecasted operating results, discount rate and a terminal value.

The following table presents the changes in Level 3 liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012:

	Incentive Award Plan		Employment Agreement Award		Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests

Gains (losses) included in earnings were recorded in the consolidated statement of operations as corporate selling, general and administrative expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012.

For Level 3 assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis, the significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurements were as follows:

Employment agreement award	Discounted Cash Flow	Long-term Growth Rate		3.0	%		3.0	%		3.0	%
Redeemable noncontrolling interest	Discounted Cash Flow	Discount Rate		13.5	%		11.5	%		12.5	%
Redeemable noncontrolling interest	Discounted Cash Flow	Long-term Growth Rate		1.5	%		2.0	%		2.5	%

Any significant increases or decreases in discount rate or long-term growth rate inputs could result in significantly higher or lower fair value measurements.

Certain assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis using Level 3 inputs as defined in ASC 820.  These assets are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to fair value adjustments only in certain circumstances.  Included in this category are goodwill, radio broadcasting licenses and other intangible assets, net, that are written down to fair value when they are determined to be impaired, as well as content assets that are periodically written down to net realizable value. The Company recorded an impairment charge of approximately $9.8 million related to our Philadelphia, Cincinnati and Cleveland radio broadcasting licenses during the three months ended June 30, 2013. The Company recorded an impairment charge of approximately $11.2 million related to our Philadelphia, Cincinnati and Cleveland radio broadcasting licenses during the six months ended June 30, 2013. The Company recorded impairment of $313,000 related to our Charlotte radio broadcasting licenses during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012. See Note 4 – Goodwill and Radio Broadcasting Licenses.

 (i) Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-04, which provides a consistent definition of fair value and ensures that the fair value measurement and disclosure requirements are similar between GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. ASU 2011-04 changes certain fair value measurement principles and enhances the disclosure requirements particularly for Level 3 fair value measurements. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2012, and it did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-05, “Presentation of Comprehensive Income,” which was subsequently modified in December 2011 by ASU 2011-12, “Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to the Presentation of Reclassifications of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05.” This ASU amends existing presentation and disclosure requirements concerning comprehensive income, most significantly by requiring that comprehensive income be presented with net income in a continuous financial statement, or in a separate but consecutive financial statement. The provisions of this ASU (as modified) are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements, other than presentation and disclosure.

In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-08, which provides companies with an option to perform a qualitative assessment that may allow them to skip the two-step impairment test. ASU 2011-08 amends existing guidance by giving an entity the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If this is the case, companies will need to perform a more detailed two-step goodwill impairment test which is used to identify potential goodwill impairments and to measure the amount of goodwill impairment losses to be recognized, if any. ASU 2011-08 is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2012, and it did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-02, which provides companies the option to perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired rather than calculating the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset. ASU 2012-02 is effective prospectively for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2013, and it did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-02, “Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income,” which adds new disclosure requirements for items reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income. ASU 2013-02 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2012. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2013, and it did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

 (j) Redeemable noncontrolling interest

Redeemable noncontrolling interests are interests in subsidiaries that are redeemable outside of the Company’s control either for cash and/or registered Class D Common Stock of Radio One. These interests are classified as mezzanine equity and measured at the greater of estimated redemption value at the end of each reporting period or the historical cost basis of the noncontrolling interests adjusted for cumulative earnings allocations.  The resulting increases or decreases in the estimated redemption amount are affected by corresponding charges against retained earnings, or in the absence of retained earnings, additional paid-in-capital.

(k) Investments

Investment Securities

Investments consist primarily of corporate fixed maturity securities and mutual funds.

Investments with original maturities in excess of three months and less than one year are classified as short-term investments. Long-term investments have original maturities in excess of one year.

Debt securities are classified as “available-for-sale” and reported at fair value. Investments in available-for-sale fixed maturity securities are classified as either current or noncurrent assets based on their contractual maturities. Fixed maturity securities are carried at estimated fair value based on quoted market prices for the same or similar instruments. Investment income is recognized when earned and reported net of investment expenses. Unrealized gains and losses are excluded from earnings and are reported as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) until realized, unless the losses are deemed to be other than temporary. Realized gains or losses, including any provision for other-than-temporary declines in value, are included in the statements of operations. For purposes of computing realized gains and losses, the specific-identification method of determining cost was used.

Evaluating Investments for Other than Temporary Impairments

The Company periodically performs evaluations, on a lot-by-lot and security-by-security basis, of its investment holdings in accordance with its impairment policy to evaluate whether any declines in the fair value of investments are other than temporary. This evaluation consists of a review of several factors, including but not limited to: length of time and extent that a security has been in an unrealized loss position, the existence of an event that would impair the issuer’s future earnings potential, and the near-term prospects for recovery of the market value of a security. The FASB has issued guidance for recognition and presentation of other than temporary impairment (“OTTI”), or FASB OTTI guidance. Accordingly, any credit-related impairment of fixed maturity securities that the Company does not intend to sell, and is not likely to be required to sell, is recognized in the consolidated statements of operations, with the noncredit-related impairment recognized in accumulated other comprehensive loss.

The Company believes that it has adequately reviewed its investment securities for OTTI and that its investment securities are carried at fair value. However, over time, the economic and market environment (including any ratings change for any such securities, including US treasuries and corporate bonds) may provide additional insight regarding the fair value of certain securities, which could change management’s judgment regarding OTTI. This could result in realized losses relating to other than temporary declines being charged against future income. Given the judgments involved, there is a continuing risk that further declines in fair value may occur and material OTTI may be recorded in future periods.

(l) Content Assets

TV One has entered into contracts to acquire entertainment programming rights and programs from distributors and producers. The license periods granted in these contracts generally run from one year to perpetuity. Contract payments are made in installments over terms that are generally shorter than the contract period. Each contract is recorded as an asset and a liability at an amount equal to its gross contractual commitment when the license period begins and the program is available for its first airing.

Program rights are recorded at the lower of amortized cost or estimated net realizable value. Program rights are amortized based on the greater of the usage of the program or term of license. Estimated net realizable values are based on the estimated revenues directly associated with the program materials and related expenses. The Company recorded additional amortization expense of $0 and $508,000 as a result of evaluating its contracts for recoverability for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. All produced and licensed content is classified as a long-term asset, except for the portion of the unamortized content balance that will be amortized within one year which is classified as a current asset.

(m) Derivatives

ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging,” establishes disclosure requirements related to derivative instruments and hedging activities with the intent to provide users of financial statements with an enhanced understanding of: (i) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments; (ii) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for and its related interpretations; and (iii) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. ASC 815 requires qualitative disclosures about objectives and strategies for using derivatives, quantitative disclosures about the fair value of gains and losses on derivative instruments, and disclosures about credit-risk-related contingent features in derivative instruments.

The Company recognizes all derivatives at fair value, whether designated in hedging relationships or not, on the balance sheet as either an asset or liability. The accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, depends on the intended use of the derivative and the resulting designation. If the derivative is designated as a fair value hedge, the changes in the fair value of the derivative and the hedged item are recognized in the statement of operations. If the derivative is designated as a cash flow hedge, changes in the fair value of the derivative are recorded in other comprehensive income and are recognized in the statement of operations when the hedged item affects net income. As of June 30, 2013, the Company has no such instruments. If a derivative does not qualify as a hedge, it is marked to fair value through the statement of operations. 

As of June 30, 2013, the Company was party to an Employment Agreement executed in April 2008 with the CEO. Pursuant to the Employment Agreement, the CEO is eligible to receive an award amount equal to 8% of any proceeds from distributions or other liquidity events in excess of the return of the Company’s aggregate investment in TV One. The Company estimated the fair value of the award at June 30, 2013, to be approximately $12.6 million, and accordingly, adjusted its liability to this amount. The Company’s obligation to pay the award will be triggered only after the Company’s recovery of the aggregate amount of its capital contribution in TV One and only upon actual receipt of distributions of cash or marketable securities or proceeds from a liquidity event with respect to the Company’s membership interest in TV One. The CEO was fully vested in the award upon execution of the Employment Agreement, and the award lapses if the CEO voluntarily leaves the Company, or is terminated for cause. The terms of the Employment Agreement remain in effect including eligibility for the TV One award.

The fair values and the presentation of the Company’s derivative instruments in the consolidated balance sheets are as follows: 

	Liability Derivatives
	As of June 30, 2013			As of December 31, 2012
	(Unaudited)
	(In thousands)
	Balance Sheet Location	Fair Value		Balance Sheet Location	Fair Value
Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments:
Employment agreement award	Other Long-Term Liabilities	$	12,610	Other Long-Term Liabilities	$	11,374
Total derivatives		$	12,610		$	11,374

The effect and the presentation of the Company’s derivative instruments on the consolidated statements of operations are as follows:

Derivatives Not Designated as Hedging Instruments	Location of Gain (Loss) in Income of Derivative	Amount of Gain (Loss) in Income of Derivative

(n) Correction of Prior Period Misclassifications

In connection with preparing the quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2013, the Company identified misclassifications in its previously filed financial statements related to the condensed consolidating financial statements of guarantors in the notes to its previously filed financial statements in its quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2013 (the “First Quarter 10-Q”) and in its annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 (the “2012 10-K”).  The misclassifications primarily relate to: (i) including TV One in the “Radio One, Inc.” column in the condensed consolidating financial statements in each of the 2012 10-K and the First Quarter 10-Q although TV One is a non-guarantor subsidiary of the Company under its outstanding notes registered under the Securities Act of 1933; (ii) including Reach Media, Inc. (“Reach Media”) in the “Radio One, Inc.” column in the condensed consolidating financial statements in the 2012 10-K although Reach Media was a non-guarantor subsidiary for that reporting period; and (iii) after Reach Media became a guarantor under the Company’s outstanding registered notes on February 14, 2013, including Reach Media in the “Wholly-Owned Guarantor Subsidiaries” column in the condensed consolidating financial statements in the First Quarter 10-Q and the comparative period in 2012 rather than a separate column for “non-wholly owned guarantor subsidiaries”. Additionally, the Company determined separate financial statements for Reach Media should have been included in the First Quarter 10-Q because it is not wholly owned by the Company. The accompanying condensed consolidating financial statements for the current period reflect these corrections. In consultation with its audit committee, management has concluded it will amend the previously filed financial statements in its 2012 10-K and First Quarter 2013 10-Q to reflect these corrections in those filings.  These changes have no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, including its consolidated balance sheets, consolidated statements of operations, consolidated statements of comprehensive income, consolidated statements of changes in equity or consolidated statements of cash flows for any previously reported period.

Also in connection with preparing the quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2013, the Company identified an immaterial misclassification related to the cash flow statement presentation in its previously filed interim consolidated financial statements as of and for the three month period ended March 31, 2013. The Company improperly classified proceeds from the sale of its Columbus station (WJKR-FM) as cash flows from discontinued operations within operating activities rather than as a source of cash flows from investing activities. In connection with the filing of its Form 10-Q/A as of and for the three month period ended March 31, 2013, the Company intends to correct this misclassification. The impact on the financial statements was to overstate cash flows from operating activities by approximately $4.0 million and understate cash flows from investing activities by approximately $4.0 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2013. The misclassification had no effect on operating cash flows from continuing operations. Further, the misclassification had no effect on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet, consolidated statement of operations, consolidated  statement of comprehensive loss or consolidated statement of changes in equity as of and for the three month period ended March 31, 2013.

Reach Media, Inc. [Member]

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Organization, Consolidation, Basis of Presentation, Business Description and Accounting Policies [Text Block]

1.  ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

(a) Organization

Reach Media, Inc. (“Reach Media” or the “Company”) is a leading cross-platform media company with networks and syndicated talent reaching a predominantly adult African-American audience of 12 million on a weekly basis, through radio broadcasts, digital media, events and initiatives. The Company features highly popular syndicated radio shows including The Tom Joyner Morning Show, The Rickey Smiley Morning Show, The Russ Parr Morning Show, The Yolanda Adams Morning Show, The James Fortune Show, and The Al Sharpton Show.  The Company provides a strong digital presence through BlackAmericaWeb.com, websites for the syndicated talent, online streaming and mobile applications.  Integrated marketing opportunities related to family, education, health and inspirational initiatives are accented by the personality’s commitment to the community.  The Company was founded in 2003 by Tom Joyner and CEO David Kantor, and is a subsidiary of Radio One, Inc. (“Radio One” or the “Parent Company”).

In February 2005, Radio One, Inc. acquired 51% of the common stock of Reach Media. In December 2009, the Parent Company’s ownership interest increased to 53.5% when Reach Media reacquired a noncontrolling interest from an unrelated third party.  On December 31, 2012, the Parent Company further increased its ownership interest in Reach Media from 53.5% to 80% by purchasing additional shares from certain minority shareholders. Immediately after increasing its ownership in Reach Media to 80%, the Parent Company consolidated its syndication operations within Reach Media to leverage that platform to create the leading syndicated radio network targeted to the African-American audience.  In connection with the consolidation, the Parent Company contributed its syndicated programming and combined its sales function associated with this programming with Reach Media. 

(b) Interim Financial Statements

The interim financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In management’s opinion, the interim financial data presented herein include all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year.

(c) Revenue Recognition

Reach Media primarily derives its revenue from the sale of advertising inventory in connection with its syndication agreements. The Company recognizes revenue for broadcast advertising when a commercial is broadcast and is reported, net of agency and outside sales representative commissions, in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 605, “Revenue Recognition.”  

(d) Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-08, which provides companies with an option to perform a qualitative assessment that may allow them to skip the two-step impairment test.  ASU 2011-08 amends existing guidance by giving an entity the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If this is the case, companies will need to perform a more detailed two-step goodwill impairment test which is used to identify potential goodwill impairments and to measure the amount of goodwill impairment losses to be recognized, if any. ASU 2011-08 is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2012, and it did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements. 

In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-02, which provides companies the option to perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired rather than calculating the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset. ASU 2012-02 is effective prospectively for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2013, and it did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

(e) Fair Value Measurements

We report our financial and non-financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring and non-recurring basis under the provisions of ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures.” ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.

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

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

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

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

As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the fair values of our financial assets and liabilities are categorized as follows:

	Total		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
	(Unaudited)
	(In thousands)
As of June 30, 2013
Mezzanine equity subject to fair value measurement:
Redeemable noncontrolling interests (a)	$	11,865	$	—	$	—	$	11,865
As of December 31, 2012
Mezzanine equity subject to fair value measurement:
Redeemable noncontrolling interests (a)	$	12,853	$	—	$	—	$	12,853

(a)    The redeemable noncontrolling interest is measured at fair value using a discounted cash flow methodology.  A third-party valuation firm assisted the Company in estimating the fair value. Significant inputs to the discounted cash flow analysis include forecasted operating results, discount rate and a terminal value.

The following table presents the changes in Level 3 liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis for the six months ended June 30, 2013:

	Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests
Balance at December 31, 2012	$	12,853
Change in enterprise fair value		(988)
Balance at June 30, 2013	$	11,865
The amount of total losses for the period included in earnings attributable to the change in unrealized losses relating to assets and liabilities still held at the reporting date	$	—

For Level 3 assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis, the significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurements were as follows:

			As of June 30, 2013			As of December 31, 2012			As of June 30, 2012
Level 3 liabilities	Valuation Technique	Significant Unobservable Inputs	Significant Unobservable Input Value
Redeemable noncontrolling interest	Discounted Cash Flow	Discount Rate		13.5	%		11.5	%		12.5	%
Redeemable noncontrolling interest	Discounted Cash Flow	Long-term Growth Rate		1.5	%		2.0	%		2.5	%

Any significant increases or decreases in discount rate or long-term growth rate inputs could result in significantly higher or lower fair value measurements.

Certain assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis using Level 3 inputs as defined in ASC 820.  These assets are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to fair value adjustments only in certain circumstances.  Included in this category are goodwill and other intangible assets, net, that are written down to fair value when they are determined to be impaired.

(a)    Where quoted market prices are available in an active market, securities are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are estimated using pricing models, quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics or discounted cash flows.

(b)   These balances are measured based on the estimated enterprise fair value of TV One. Significant inputs to the discounted cash flow analysis include forecasted operating results, discount rate and a terminal value. A third-party valuation firm assisted the Company in estimating TV One’s fair value. Significant inputs to the discounted cash flow analysis include forecasted operating results, discount rate and a terminal value. There are specific unit holders for which the enterprise fair value is fixed.

(c)   Pursuant to an employment agreement (the “Employment Agreement”) executed in April 2008, the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) is eligible to receive an award amount equal to 8% of any proceeds from distributions or other liquidity events in excess of the return of the Company’s aggregate investment in TV One. The Company reviews the factors underlying this award at the end of each quarter including the valuation of TV One and an assessment of the probability that the employment agreement will be renewed and contain this provision. There are probability factors included in the calculation of the award related to the likelihood that the award will be realized. The Company’s obligation to pay the award will be triggered only after the Company’s recovery of the aggregate amount of its capital contribution in TV One and only upon actual receipt of distributions of cash or marketable securities or proceeds from a liquidity event with respect to the Company’s membership interest in TV One. The CEO was fully vested in the award upon execution of the Employment Agreement, and the award lapses if the CEO voluntarily leaves the Company or is terminated for cause. A third-party valuation firm assisted the Company in estimating TV One’s fair value. Significant inputs to the discounted cash flow analysis include forecasted operating results, discount rate and a terminal value. The terms of the Employment Agreement remain in effect including eligibility for the TV One award.

(d)   The redeemable noncontrolling interest in Reach Media is measured at fair value using a discounted cash flow methodology.  A third-party valuation firm assisted the Company in estimating the fair value. Significant inputs to the discounted cash flow analysis include forecasted operating results, discount rate and a terminal value.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]

Segment Reporting Disclosure [Text Block]

9.  SEGMENT INFORMATION:

The Company has four reportable segments: (i) Radio Broadcasting; (ii) Reach Media; (iii) Internet; and (iv) Cable Television. These segments operate in the United States and are consistently aligned with the Company’s management of its businesses and its financial reporting structure.

The Radio Broadcasting segment consists of all broadcast results of operations. The Company aggregates the broadcast markets in which it operates into the Radio Broadcasting segment. The Reach Media segment consists of the results of operations for the Tom Joyner Morning Show and Tom Joyner Morning Show related activities and operations of the Syndication One Urban programming line-up. Effective, January 1, 2013, we consolidated our syndication network programming within Reach Media to leverage that platform to create the leading syndicated radio network targeted to the African-American audience. In connection with the consolidation, we shifted our syndicated programming sales to an internal sales force operating out of Reach Media. The Internet segment includes the results of our online business, including the operations of Interactive One. The Cable Television segment consists of TV One’s results of operations. Corporate/Eliminations/Other represents financial activity associated with our corporate staff and offices and intercompany activity among the four segments.

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

The accounting policies described in the summary of significant accounting policies in Note 1 – Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies are applied consistently across the segments.

Detailed segment data for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, is presented in the following tables:

[1] The redeemable noncontrolling interest in Reach Media is measured at fair value using a discounted cash flow methodology. A third-party valuation firm assisted the Company in estimating the fair value. Significant inputs to the discounted cash flow analysis include forecasted operating results, discount rate and a terminal value.

[2] The redeemable noncontrolling interest is measured at fair value using a discounted cash flow methodology. A third-party valuation firm assisted the Company in estimating the fair value. Significant inputs to the discounted cash flow analysis include forecasted operating results, discount rate and a terminal value.

[3] These balances are measured based on the estimated enterprise fair value of TV One. Significant inputs to the discounted cash flow analysis include forecasted operating results, discount rate and a terminal value. A third-party valuation firm assisted the Company in estimating TV One’s fair value. Significant inputs to the discounted cash flow analysis include forecasted operating results, discount rate and a terminal value. There are specific unit holders for which the enterprise fair value is fixed.

[4] Pursuant to an employment agreement (the "Employment Agreement") executed in April 2008, the Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") is eligible to receive an award amount equal to 8% of any proceeds from distributions or other liquidity events in excess of the return of the Company's aggregate investment in TV One. The Company reviews the factors underlying this award at the end of each quarter including the valuation of TV One and an assessment of the probability that the employment agreement will be renewed and contain this provision. There are probability factors included in the calculation of the award related to the likelihood that the award will be realized. The Company's obligation to pay the award will be triggered only after the Company's recovery of the aggregate amount of its capital contribution in TV One and only upon actual receipt of distributions of cash or marketable securities or proceeds from a liquidity event with respect to the Company's membership interest in TV One. The CEO was fully vested in the award upon execution of the Employment Agreement, and the award lapses if the CEO voluntarily leaves the Company or is terminated for cause. A third-party valuation firm assisted the Company in estimating TV One's fair value. Significant inputs to the discounted cash flow analysis include forecasted operating results, discount rate and a terminal value. The terms of the Employment Agreement remain in effect including eligibility for the TV One award.

[5] Where quoted market prices are available in an active market, securities are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are estimated using pricing models, quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics or discounted cash flows.

2.  ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSITIONS:

On February 15, 2013, the Company closed on the sale of the assets of its Columbus, Ohio radio station, WJKR-FM (The Jack, 98.9 FM) to Salem Media of Ohio, Inc., a subsidiary of Salem Communications (“Salem”).  The Company sold the assets of WJKR for $4 million and recognized a gain on the sale of $893,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2013. 

On December 31, 2012, the Company through its wholly-owned subsidiary Radio One Media Holdings, LLC (“ROMH”) completed the purchase of additional shares of Reach Media from certain minority shareholders.  In addition to $2 million in cash consideration paid to increase the Company’s ownership in Reach Media from approximately 53.5% to 80%, effective January 1, 2013, the Radio Broadcasting segment contributed the assets and operations of its Syndication One urban programming line-up to Reach Media. We consolidated our syndication operations within Reach Media to leverage that platform to create the leading syndicated radio network targeted to the African-American audience. In connection with the consolidation, we shifted our syndicated programming sales to an internal sales force operating out of Reach Media.

On July 18, 2012, we entered into an LMA with Gaffney Broadcasting, Incorporated (“Gaffney”). Beginning as of August 27, 2012, we began to broadcast programs produced, owned or acquired by Radio One on Gaffney’s South Carolina radio station, WOSF-FM (previously WNOW-FM). We pay certain operating costs of WOSF-FM, and in exchange we retain all revenues from the sale of the advertising within the programming we provide. The LMA continues for 18 months or until our consummation of an acquisition of the station under a stock purchase agreement (the “SPA”) with the stockholders of Gaffney. The closing of the acquisition under the SPA is subject to certain conditions including but not limited to approval by the Federal Communications Commission (the “FCC”) of the transfer of Gaffney’s FCC licenses.

On October 20, 2011, we entered into an LMA with WGPR, Inc. (“WGPR”). Pursuant to the LMA, beginning as of October 24, 2011, we began to broadcast programs produced, owned or acquired by Radio One on WGPR’s Detroit radio station, WGPR-FM. We pay certain operating costs of WGPR-FM, and in exchange we will retain all revenues from the sale of the advertising within the programming we provide. The LMA continues until December 31, 2014, and we have two successive 1-year options for a 4th year and a 5th year that would extend the term until December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2016, respectively. Under the terms of the LMA, WGPR has also granted us certain rights of first negotiation and first refusal, with respect to the sale of WGPR-FM by WGPR and with respect to any potential time brokerage agreement for WGPR-FM covering any time period subsequent to the term of the LMA.

[1] Pursuant to an employment agreement (the "Employment Agreement") executed in April 2008, the Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") is eligible to receive an award amount equal to 8% of any proceeds from distributions or other liquidity events in excess of the return of the Company's aggregate investment in TV One. The Company reviews the factors underlying this award at the end of each quarter including the valuation of TV One and an assessment of the probability that the employment agreement will be renewed and contain this provision. There are probability factors included in the calculation of the award related to the likelihood that the award will be realized. The Company's obligation to pay the award will be triggered only after the Company's recovery of the aggregate amount of its capital contribution in TV One and only upon actual receipt of distributions of cash or marketable securities or proceeds from a liquidity event with respect to the Company's membership interest in TV One. The CEO was fully vested in the award upon execution of the Employment Agreement, and the award lapses if the CEO voluntarily leaves the Company or is terminated for cause. A third-party valuation firm assisted the Company in estimating TV One's fair value. Significant inputs to the discounted cash flow analysis include forecasted operating results, discount rate and a terminal value. The terms of the Employment Agreement remain in effect including eligibility for the TV One award.

The Company’s investments in debt securities are sensitive to interest rate fluctuations, which impact the fair value of individual securities. Unrealized losses on the Company’s investments in debt securities have occurred due to volatility and liquidity concerns within the capital markets during the quarter ended June 30, 2013.

The amortized cost and estimated fair value of debt securities at June 30, 2013, by contractual maturity, are shown below.

	Amortized Cost Basis		Fair Value
	(In thousands)
Within 1 year	$	1,029	$	1,021
After 1 year through 5 years		18		21
Total debt securities	$	1,047	$	1,042

A primary objective in the management of the fixed maturity portfolios is to maximize total return relative to underlying liabilities and respective liquidity needs. In achieving this goal, assets may be sold to take advantage of market conditions or other investment opportunities, as well as tax considerations. Sales will generally produce realized gains or losses. In the ordinary course of business, the Company may sell securities for a number of reasons, including, but not limited to: (i) changes to the investment environment; (ii) expectation that the fair value could deteriorate further; (iii) desire to reduce exposure to an issuer or an industry; (iv) changes in credit quality; and (v) changes in expected cash flow. Available-for-sale securities were sold as follows:

ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: (Policies)

6 Months Ended

Jun. 30, 2013

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Consolidation, Policy [Policy Text Block]

(a) Organization

 Radio One, Inc. (a Delaware corporation referred to as “Radio One”) and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) is an urban-oriented, multi-media company that primarily targets African-American and urban consumers. Our core business is our radio broadcasting franchise that is the largest radio broadcasting operation that primarily targets African-American and urban listeners. We currently own and/or operate 54 broadcast stations located in 16 urban markets in the United States.  While our primary source of revenue is the sale of local and national advertising for broadcast on our radio stations, our strategy is to operate the premier multi-media entertainment and information content provider targeting African-American and urban consumers. Thus, we have diversified our revenue streams by making acquisitions and investments in other complementary media properties. Our other media interests include our approximately 51.3% controlling ownership interest in TV One, LLC (“TV One”), an African-American targeted cable television network that we own with an affiliate of Comcast Corporation; our 80.0% controlling ownership interest in Reach Media, Inc. (“Reach Media”), which operates the Tom Joyner Morning Show and our other syndicated programming assets; and our ownership of Interactive One, LLC (“Interactive One”), an online platform serving the African-American community through social content, news, information, and entertainment websites, including News One, UrbanDaily and HelloBeautiful and online social networking websites, including BlackPlanet, MiGente and Asian Avenue.  Through our national multi-media presence, we provide advertisers with a unique and powerful delivery mechanism to the African-American and urban audiences.  

As of June 2011, our remaining Boston radio station was made the subject of a local marketing agreement (“LMA”) whereby we have made available, for a fee, air time on this station to another party. In addition, beginning as of November 1, 2012, our Columbus, Ohio radio station, WJKR-FM (The Jack, 98.9 FM) was also made the subject of an LMA, and on February 15, 2013, the Company sold that station’s assets.  The remaining assets and liabilities of stations sold and stations that we do not operate as they are the subject of an LMA have been classified as discontinued operations as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, and the results from operations of those stations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, have been reclassified as discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

As part of our consolidated financial statements, consistent with our financial reporting structure and how the Company currently manages its businesses, we have provided selected financial information on the Company’s four reportable segments: (i) Radio Broadcasting; (ii) Reach Media; (iii) Internet; and (iv) Cable Television. (See Note 9 – Segment Information.)

Basis of Accounting, Policy [Policy Text Block]

(b)  Interim Financial Statements

The interim consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In management’s opinion, the interim financial data presented herein include all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations.

Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year. This Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended on Form 10-K/A.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments, Policy [Policy Text Block]

(c)  Financial Instruments

Financial instruments as of June 30, 2013, and December 31, 2012, consisted of cash and cash equivalents, investments, trade accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, long-term debt and redeemable noncontrolling interest. The carrying amounts approximated fair value for each of these financial instruments as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, except for the Company’s outstanding senior subordinated notes. The 6³/₈% Senior Subordinated Notes which were due and paid in full in February 2013 had a carrying value of $747,000 and a fair value of approximately $740,000 as of December 31, 2012. The 12¹/₂%/15% Senior Subordinated Notes due May 2016 had a carrying value of approximately $327.0 million and a fair value of approximately $327.0 million as of June 30, 2013, and a carrying value of approximately $327.0 million and a fair value of approximately $293.5 million as of December 31, 2012. The fair values, classified as Level 2, were determined based on the trading values of these instruments in an inactive market as of the reporting date. The Company’s 10% Senior Secured TV One Notes due March 2016 are classified as Level 3 since they are not market traded financial instruments.

Revenue Recognition, Policy [Policy Text Block]

(d)  Revenue Recognition

Within our Radio Broadcasting and Reach Media segments, the Company recognizes revenue for broadcast advertising when a commercial is broadcast and is reported, net of agency and outside sales representative commissions, in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 605, “Revenue Recognition.”  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. For our Radio Broadcasting and Reach Media segments, agency and outside sales representative commissions were approximately $8.3 million and $9.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Agency and outside sales representative commissions were approximately $15.2 million and $16.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Interactive One generates the majority of the Company’s internet revenue, and derives such revenue principally from advertising services on non-radio station branded websites, including advertising aimed at diversity recruiting. Advertising services include the sale of banner and sponsorship advertisements.  Advertising revenue is recognized either as impressions (the number of times advertisements appear in viewed pages) are delivered, when “click through” purchases are made or leads are generated, or ratably over the contract period, where applicable.

TV One, the driver of revenues in our Cable Television segment, derives advertising revenue from the sale of television air time to advertisers and recognizes revenue when the advertisements are run. TV One also receives affiliate fees and records revenue during the term of various affiliation agreements based on the most recent subscriber counts reported by the applicable affiliate.

Launch Support [Policy Text Block]

(e) Launch Support

TV One has entered into certain affiliate agreements requiring various payments by TV One for launch support. Launch assets are assets used to initiate carriage under new affiliation agreements and are amortized over the term of the respective contracts. Amortization is recorded as a reduction to revenue to the extent that revenue is recognized from the vendor, and any excess amortization is recorded as launch support amortization expense. The weighted-average amortization period for launch support is approximately 10.9 years at each of June 30, 2013, and December 31, 2012. The remaining weighted-average amortization period for launch support is 1.9 years and 2.4 years as of June 30, 2013, and December 31, 2012, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, launch asset amortization of approximately $2.5 million and $5.0 million, respectively, was recorded as a reduction to revenue. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, launch asset amortization of approximately $2.4 million and $4.9 million, respectively, was recorded as a reduction to revenue.

Advertising Barter Transactions, Policy [Policy Text Block]

(f)  Barter Transactions

The Company provides advertising time in exchange for programming content and certain services and accounts for these exchanges in accordance with ASC 605, “Revenue Recognition.” The terms of these exchanges generally permit the Company to preempt such time in favor of advertisers who purchase time in exchange for cash. The Company includes the value of such exchanges in both 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 three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, barter transaction revenues were $558,000 and $711,000, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, barter transaction revenues were approximately $1.2 million and $1.4 million, respectively. Additionally, barter transaction costs were reflected in programming and technical expenses and selling, general and administrative expenses of $540,000 and $670,000 and $18,000 and $41,000, for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, barter transaction costs were reflected in programming and technical expenses and selling, general and administrative expenses of approximately $1.1 million and $1.4 million and $86,000 and $83,000, respectively.

Earnings Per Share, Policy [Policy Text Block]

(g)  Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of shares of common stock (Classes A, B, C and D) outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of shares of common stock plus the effect of dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method.  The Company’s potentially dilutive securities include stock options and restricted stock. Diluted earnings per share considers the impact of potentially dilutive securities except in periods in which there is a net loss, as the inclusion of the potentially dilutive common shares would have an anti-dilutive effect.

The following table sets forth the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share from continuing operations (in thousands, except share and per share data):

	Three Months Ended  June 30,				Six Months Ended  June 30,

Net (loss) income attributable to common stockholders per share - diluted	$	(0.29)	$	0.85	$	(0.67)	$	(0.73)

All stock options and restricted stock awards were excluded from the diluted calculation for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, and for the six months ended June 30, 2012, as their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.  The following table summarizes the potential common shares excluded from the diluted calculation.

Fair Value Measurement, Policy [Policy Text Block]

(h) Fair Value Measurements

We report our financial and non-financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring and non-recurring basis under the provisions of ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures.” ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.

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

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

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

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

As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the fair values of our financial assets and liabilities are categorized as follows:

	Total		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
	(Unaudited)

Redeemable noncontrolling interests (d)	$	12,853	$	—	$	—	$	12,853

(a)    Where quoted market prices are available in an active market, securities are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are estimated using pricing models, quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics or discounted cash flows.

(b)   These balances are measured based on the estimated enterprise fair value of TV One. Significant inputs to the discounted cash flow analysis include forecasted operating results, discount rate and a terminal value. A third-party valuation firm assisted the Company in estimating TV One’s fair value. Significant inputs to the discounted cash flow analysis include forecasted operating results, discount rate and a terminal value. There are specific unit holders for which the enterprise fair value is fixed.

(c)   Pursuant to an employment agreement (the “Employment Agreement”) executed in April 2008, the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) is eligible to receive an award amount equal to 8% of any proceeds from distributions or other liquidity events in excess of the return of the Company’s aggregate investment in TV One. The Company reviews the factors underlying this award at the end of each quarter including the valuation of TV One and an assessment of the probability that the employment agreement will be renewed and contain this provision. There are probability factors included in the calculation of the award related to the likelihood that the award will be realized. The Company’s obligation to pay the award will be triggered only after the Company’s recovery of the aggregate amount of its capital contribution in TV One and only upon actual receipt of distributions of cash or marketable securities or proceeds from a liquidity event with respect to the Company’s membership interest in TV One. The CEO was fully vested in the award upon execution of the Employment Agreement, and the award lapses if the CEO voluntarily leaves the Company or is terminated for cause. A third-party valuation firm assisted the Company in estimating TV One’s fair value. Significant inputs to the discounted cash flow analysis include forecasted operating results, discount rate and a terminal value. The terms of the Employment Agreement remain in effect including eligibility for the TV One award.

(d)   The redeemable noncontrolling interest in Reach Media is measured at fair value using a discounted cash flow methodology.  A third-party valuation firm assisted the Company in estimating the fair value. Significant inputs to the discounted cash flow analysis include forecasted operating results, discount rate and a terminal value.

The following table presents the changes in Level 3 liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012:

	Incentive Award Plan		Employment Agreement Award		Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests

Redeemable noncontrolling interest	Discounted Cash Flow	Long-term Growth Rate		1.5	%		2.0	%		2.5	%

Any significant increases or decreases in discount rate or long-term growth rate inputs could result in significantly higher or lower fair value measurements.

Certain assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis using Level 3 inputs as defined in ASC 820.  These assets are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to fair value adjustments only in certain circumstances.  Included in this category are goodwill, radio broadcasting licenses and other intangible assets, net, that are written down to fair value when they are determined to be impaired, as well as content assets that are periodically written down to net realizable value. The Company recorded an impairment charge of approximately $9.8 million related to our Philadelphia, Cincinnati and Cleveland radio broadcasting licenses during the three months ended June 30, 2013. The Company recorded an impairment charge of approximately $11.2 million related to our Philadelphia, Cincinnati and Cleveland radio broadcasting licenses during the six months ended June 30, 2013. The Company recorded impairment of $313,000 related to our Charlotte radio broadcasting licenses during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012. See Note 4 – Goodwill and Radio Broadcasting Licenses.

New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block]

 (i) Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-04, which provides a consistent definition of fair value and ensures that the fair value measurement and disclosure requirements are similar between GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. ASU 2011-04 changes certain fair value measurement principles and enhances the disclosure requirements particularly for Level 3 fair value measurements. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2012, and it did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-05, “Presentation of Comprehensive Income,” which was subsequently modified in December 2011 by ASU 2011-12, “Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to the Presentation of Reclassifications of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05.” This ASU amends existing presentation and disclosure requirements concerning comprehensive income, most significantly by requiring that comprehensive income be presented with net income in a continuous financial statement, or in a separate but consecutive financial statement. The provisions of this ASU (as modified) are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements, other than presentation and disclosure.

In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-08, which provides companies with an option to perform a qualitative assessment that may allow them to skip the two-step impairment test. ASU 2011-08 amends existing guidance by giving an entity the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If this is the case, companies will need to perform a more detailed two-step goodwill impairment test which is used to identify potential goodwill impairments and to measure the amount of goodwill impairment losses to be recognized, if any. ASU 2011-08 is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2012, and it did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-02, which provides companies the option to perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired rather than calculating the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset. ASU 2012-02 is effective prospectively for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2013, and it did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-02, “Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income,” which adds new disclosure requirements for items reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income. ASU 2013-02 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2012. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2013, and it did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest Policy [Policy Text Block]

 (j) Redeemable noncontrolling interest

Redeemable noncontrolling interests are interests in subsidiaries that are redeemable outside of the Company’s control either for cash and/or registered Class D Common Stock of Radio One. These interests are classified as mezzanine equity and measured at the greater of estimated redemption value at the end of each reporting period or the historical cost basis of the noncontrolling interests adjusted for cumulative earnings allocations.  The resulting increases or decreases in the estimated redemption amount are affected by corresponding charges against retained earnings, or in the absence of retained earnings, additional paid-in-capital.

Investment, Policy [Policy Text Block]

(k) Investments

Investment Securities

Investments consist primarily of corporate fixed maturity securities and mutual funds.

Investments with original maturities in excess of three months and less than one year are classified as short-term investments. Long-term investments have original maturities in excess of one year.

Debt securities are classified as “available-for-sale” and reported at fair value. Investments in available-for-sale fixed maturity securities are classified as either current or noncurrent assets based on their contractual maturities. Fixed maturity securities are carried at estimated fair value based on quoted market prices for the same or similar instruments. Investment income is recognized when earned and reported net of investment expenses. Unrealized gains and losses are excluded from earnings and are reported as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) until realized, unless the losses are deemed to be other than temporary. Realized gains or losses, including any provision for other-than-temporary declines in value, are included in the statements of operations. For purposes of computing realized gains and losses, the specific-identification method of determining cost was used.

Evaluating Investments for Other than Temporary Impairments

The Company periodically performs evaluations, on a lot-by-lot and security-by-security basis, of its investment holdings in accordance with its impairment policy to evaluate whether any declines in the fair value of investments are other than temporary. This evaluation consists of a review of several factors, including but not limited to: length of time and extent that a security has been in an unrealized loss position, the existence of an event that would impair the issuer’s future earnings potential, and the near-term prospects for recovery of the market value of a security. The FASB has issued guidance for recognition and presentation of other than temporary impairment (“OTTI”), or FASB OTTI guidance. Accordingly, any credit-related impairment of fixed maturity securities that the Company does not intend to sell, and is not likely to be required to sell, is recognized in the consolidated statements of operations, with the noncredit-related impairment recognized in accumulated other comprehensive loss.

The Company believes that it has adequately reviewed its investment securities for OTTI and that its investment securities are carried at fair value. However, over time, the economic and market environment (including any ratings change for any such securities, including US treasuries and corporate bonds) may provide additional insight regarding the fair value of certain securities, which could change management’s judgment regarding OTTI. This could result in realized losses relating to other than temporary declines being charged against future income. Given the judgments involved, there is a continuing risk that further declines in fair value may occur and material OTTI may be recorded in future periods.

Content Assets [Policy Text Block]

(l) Content Assets

TV One has entered into contracts to acquire entertainment programming rights and programs from distributors and producers. The license periods granted in these contracts generally run from one year to perpetuity. Contract payments are made in installments over terms that are generally shorter than the contract period. Each contract is recorded as an asset and a liability at an amount equal to its gross contractual commitment when the license period begins and the program is available for its first airing.

Program rights are recorded at the lower of amortized cost or estimated net realizable value. Program rights are amortized based on the greater of the usage of the program or term of license. Estimated net realizable values are based on the estimated revenues directly associated with the program materials and related expenses. The Company recorded additional amortization expense of $0 and $508,000 as a result of evaluating its contracts for recoverability for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. All produced and licensed content is classified as a long-term asset, except for the portion of the unamortized content balance that will be amortized within one year which is classified as a current asset.

Derivatives, Policy [Policy Text Block]

(m) Derivatives

ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging,” establishes disclosure requirements related to derivative instruments and hedging activities with the intent to provide users of financial statements with an enhanced understanding of: (i) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments; (ii) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for and its related interpretations; and (iii) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. ASC 815 requires qualitative disclosures about objectives and strategies for using derivatives, quantitative disclosures about the fair value of gains and losses on derivative instruments, and disclosures about credit-risk-related contingent features in derivative instruments.

The Company recognizes all derivatives at fair value, whether designated in hedging relationships or not, on the balance sheet as either an asset or liability. The accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, depends on the intended use of the derivative and the resulting designation. If the derivative is designated as a fair value hedge, the changes in the fair value of the derivative and the hedged item are recognized in the statement of operations. If the derivative is designated as a cash flow hedge, changes in the fair value of the derivative are recorded in other comprehensive income and are recognized in the statement of operations when the hedged item affects net income. As of June 30, 2013, the Company has no such instruments. If a derivative does not qualify as a hedge, it is marked to fair value through the statement of operations. 

As of June 30, 2013, the Company was party to an Employment Agreement executed in April 2008 with the CEO. Pursuant to the Employment Agreement, the CEO is eligible to receive an award amount equal to 8% of any proceeds from distributions or other liquidity events in excess of the return of the Company’s aggregate investment in TV One. The Company estimated the fair value of the award at June 30, 2013, to be approximately $12.6 million, and accordingly, adjusted its liability to this amount. The Company’s obligation to pay the award will be triggered only after the Company’s recovery of the aggregate amount of its capital contribution in TV One and only upon actual receipt of distributions of cash or marketable securities or proceeds from a liquidity event with respect to the Company’s membership interest in TV One. The CEO was fully vested in the award upon execution of the Employment Agreement, and the award lapses if the CEO voluntarily leaves the Company, or is terminated for cause. The terms of the Employment Agreement remain in effect including eligibility for the TV One award.

The fair values and the presentation of the Company’s derivative instruments in the consolidated balance sheets are as follows: 

	Liability Derivatives
	As of June 30, 2013			As of December 31, 2012

Misclassifications Corrections And Prior Period Adjustment [Policy Text Block]

(n) Correction of Prior Period Misclassifications

In connection with preparing the quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2013, the Company identified misclassifications in its previously filed financial statements related to the condensed consolidating financial statements of guarantors in the notes to its previously filed financial statements in its quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2013 (the “First Quarter 10-Q”) and in its annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 (the “2012 10-K”).  The misclassifications primarily relate to: (i) including TV One in the “Radio One, Inc.” column in the condensed consolidating financial statements in each of the 2012 10-K and the First Quarter 10-Q although TV One is a non-guarantor subsidiary of the Company under its outstanding notes registered under the Securities Act of 1933; (ii) including Reach Media, Inc. (“Reach Media”) in the “Radio One, Inc.” column in the condensed consolidating financial statements in the 2012 10-K although Reach Media was a non-guarantor subsidiary for that reporting period; and (iii) after Reach Media became a guarantor under the Company’s outstanding registered notes on February 14, 2013, including Reach Media in the “Wholly-Owned Guarantor Subsidiaries” column in the condensed consolidating financial statements in the First Quarter 10-Q and the comparative period in 2012 rather than a separate column for “non-wholly owned guarantor subsidiaries”. Additionally, the Company determined separate financial statements for Reach Media should have been included in the First Quarter 10-Q because it is not wholly owned by the Company. The accompanying condensed consolidating financial statements for the current period reflect these corrections. In consultation with its audit committee, management has concluded it will amend the previously filed financial statements in its 2012 10-K and First Quarter 2013 10-Q to reflect these corrections in those filings.  These changes have no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, including its consolidated balance sheets, consolidated statements of operations, consolidated statements of comprehensive income, consolidated statements of changes in equity or consolidated statements of cash flows for any previously reported period.

Also in connection with preparing the quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2013, the Company identified an immaterial misclassification related to the cash flow statement presentation in its previously filed interim consolidated financial statements as of and for the three month period ended March 31, 2013. The Company improperly classified proceeds from the sale of its Columbus station (WJKR-FM) as cash flows from discontinued operations within operating activities rather than as a source of cash flows from investing activities. In connection with the filing of its Form 10-Q/A as of and for the three month period ended March 31, 2013, the Company intends to correct this misclassification. The impact on the financial statements was to overstate cash flows from operating activities by approximately $4.0 million and understate cash flows from investing activities by approximately $4.0 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2013. The misclassification had no effect on operating cash flows from continuing operations. Further, the misclassification had no effect on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet, consolidated statement of operations, consolidated  statement of comprehensive loss or consolidated statement of changes in equity as of and for the three month period ended March 31, 2013.

Reach Media, Inc. [Member]

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Consolidation, Policy [Policy Text Block]

(a) Organization

Reach Media, Inc. (“Reach Media” or the “Company”) is a leading cross-platform media company with networks and syndicated talent reaching a predominantly adult African-American audience of 12 million on a weekly basis, through radio broadcasts, digital media, events and initiatives. The Company features highly popular syndicated radio shows including The Tom Joyner Morning Show, The Rickey Smiley Morning Show, The Russ Parr Morning Show, The Yolanda Adams Morning Show, The James Fortune Show, and The Al Sharpton Show.  The Company provides a strong digital presence through BlackAmericaWeb.com, websites for the syndicated talent, online streaming and mobile applications.  Integrated marketing opportunities related to family, education, health and inspirational initiatives are accented by the personality’s commitment to the community.  The Company was founded in 2003 by Tom Joyner and CEO David Kantor, and is a subsidiary of Radio One, Inc. (“Radio One” or the “Parent Company”).

In February 2005, Radio One, Inc. acquired 51% of the common stock of Reach Media. In December 2009, the Parent Company’s ownership interest increased to 53.5% when Reach Media reacquired a noncontrolling interest from an unrelated third party.  On December 31, 2012, the Parent Company further increased its ownership interest in Reach Media from 53.5% to 80% by purchasing additional shares from certain minority shareholders. Immediately after increasing its ownership in Reach Media to 80%, the Parent Company consolidated its syndication operations within Reach Media to leverage that platform to create the leading syndicated radio network targeted to the African-American audience.  In connection with the consolidation, the Parent Company contributed its syndicated programming and combined its sales function associated with this programming with Reach Media. 

Basis of Accounting, Policy [Policy Text Block]

(b) Interim Financial Statements

The interim financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In management’s opinion, the interim financial data presented herein include all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year.

Revenue Recognition, Policy [Policy Text Block]

(c) Revenue Recognition

Reach Media primarily derives its revenue from the sale of advertising inventory in connection with its syndication agreements. The Company recognizes revenue for broadcast advertising when a commercial is broadcast and is reported, net of agency and outside sales representative commissions, in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 605, “Revenue Recognition.”  

Fair Value Measurement, Policy [Policy Text Block]

(e) Fair Value Measurements

We report our financial and non-financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring and non-recurring basis under the provisions of ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures.” ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.

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

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

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

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

As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the fair values of our financial assets and liabilities are categorized as follows:

	Total		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
	(Unaudited)
	(In thousands)
As of June 30, 2013
Mezzanine equity subject to fair value measurement:
Redeemable noncontrolling interests (a)	$	11,865	$	—	$	—	$	11,865
As of December 31, 2012
Mezzanine equity subject to fair value measurement:
Redeemable noncontrolling interests (a)	$	12,853	$	—	$	—	$	12,853

(a)    The redeemable noncontrolling interest is measured at fair value using a discounted cash flow methodology.  A third-party valuation firm assisted the Company in estimating the fair value. Significant inputs to the discounted cash flow analysis include forecasted operating results, discount rate and a terminal value.

The following table presents the changes in Level 3 liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis for the six months ended June 30, 2013:

	Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests
Balance at December 31, 2012	$	12,853
Change in enterprise fair value		(988)
Balance at June 30, 2013	$	11,865
The amount of total losses for the period included in earnings attributable to the change in unrealized losses relating to assets and liabilities still held at the reporting date	$	—

For Level 3 assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis, the significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurements were as follows:

			As of June 30, 2013			As of December 31, 2012			As of June 30, 2012
Level 3 liabilities	Valuation Technique	Significant Unobservable Inputs	Significant Unobservable Input Value
Redeemable noncontrolling interest	Discounted Cash Flow	Discount Rate		13.5	%		11.5	%		12.5	%
Redeemable noncontrolling interest	Discounted Cash Flow	Long-term Growth Rate		1.5	%		2.0	%		2.5	%

Any significant increases or decreases in discount rate or long-term growth rate inputs could result in significantly higher or lower fair value measurements.

Certain assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis using Level 3 inputs as defined in ASC 820.  These assets are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to fair value adjustments only in certain circumstances.  Included in this category are goodwill and other intangible assets, net, that are written down to fair value when they are determined to be impaired.

New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block]

(d) Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-08, which provides companies with an option to perform a qualitative assessment that may allow them to skip the two-step impairment test.  ASU 2011-08 amends existing guidance by giving an entity the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If this is the case, companies will need to perform a more detailed two-step goodwill impairment test which is used to identify potential goodwill impairments and to measure the amount of goodwill impairment losses to be recognized, if any. ASU 2011-08 is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2012, and it did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements. 

In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-02, which provides companies the option to perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired rather than calculating the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset. ASU 2012-02 is effective prospectively for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2013, and it did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets Disclosure [Text Block]

 4.  GOODWILL AND RADIO BROADCASTING LICENSES:

Impairment Testing

In the past, we have made acquisitions whereby a significant amount of the purchase price was allocated to radio broadcasting licenses, goodwill and other intangible assets. In accordance with ASC 350, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other,” we do not amortize our radio broadcasting licenses and goodwill. Instead, we perform a test for impairment annually or on an interim basis when events or changes in circumstances or other conditions suggest impairment may have occurred. Other intangible assets continue to be amortized on a straight-line basis over their useful lives. We perform our annual impairment test as of October 1 of each year.

Valuation of Broadcasting Licenses

We utilize the services of a third-party valuation firm to provide independent analysis when evaluating the fair value of our radio broadcasting licenses and reporting units. Fair value is estimated to be the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. We use the income approach to test for impairment of radio broadcasting licenses. A projection period of 10 years is used, as that is the time horizon in which operators and investors generally expect to recover their investments. When evaluating our radio broadcasting licenses for impairment, the testing is done at the unit of accounting level as determined by ASC 350, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other.” In our case, each unit of accounting is a clustering of radio stations into one of the 16 geographical radio markets that we own and/or operate.  Broadcasting license fair values are based on the estimated after-tax discounted future cash flows of the applicable unit of accounting assuming an initial hypothetical start-up operation which possesses FCC licenses as the only asset. Over time, it is assumed the operation acquires other tangible assets such as advertising and programming contracts, employment agreements and going concern value, and matures into an average performing operation in a specific radio market. The income approach model incorporates several variables, including, but not limited to: (i) radio market revenue estimates and growth projections; (ii) estimated market share and revenue for the hypothetical participant; (iii) likely media competition within the market; (iv) estimated start-up costs and losses incurred in the early years; (v) estimated profit margins and cash flows based on market size and station type; (vi) anticipated capital expenditures; (vii) probable future terminal values; (viii) an effective tax rate assumption; and (ix) a discount rate based on the weighted-average cost of capital for the radio broadcast industry. In calculating the discount rate, we considered: (i) the cost of equity, which includes estimates of the risk-free return, the long-term market return, small stock risk premiums and industry beta; (ii) the cost of debt, which includes estimates for corporate borrowing rates and tax rates; and (iii) estimated average percentages of equity and debt in capital structures. Since our annual October 2012 assessment, we have not made any changes to the methodology for valuing broadcasting licenses.

During the first and second quarters of 2013, the total market revenue growth for certain markets in which we operate was below that used in our 2012 annual impairment testing. We deemed that to be an impairment indicator that warranted interim impairment testing of certain market’s radio broadcasting licenses, which we performed as of March 31, 2013, and June 30, 2013. The Company recorded an impairment charge of approximately $1.4 million related to our Cincinnati FCC radio broadcasting licenses during the first quarter of 2013. In addition, the Company recorded an impairment charge of approximately $9.8 million related to our Philadelphia, Cincinnati and Cleveland radio broadcasting licenses during the second quarter of 2013. The remaining radio broadcasting licenses that were tested during the second quarter of 2013 were not impaired.

During the second quarter of 2012, the total market revenue growth for certain markets was below that used in our 2011 annual impairment testing. We deemed that to be an impairment indicator that warranted interim impairment testing of certain of our radio broadcasting licenses, which we performed as of June 30, 2012. The Company recorded an impairment charge of $313,000 related to our Charlotte radio broadcasting licenses. The remaining radio broadcasting licenses that were tested during the second quarter of 2012 were not impaired. The Company completed its annual impairment testing as of October 1, 2012, and concluded that our radio broadcasting licenses were not impaired. Below are some of the key assumptions used in the income approach model for estimating broadcasting licenses fair values for all annual impairment assessments and interim impairment assessments where impairment was identified, since January 2012.

(a) Reflects only key assumptions used in the interim testing for certain units of accounting.

Valuation of Goodwill

The impairment testing of goodwill is performed at the reporting unit level. In testing for the impairment of goodwill, with the assistance of a third-party valuation firm, we primarily rely on the income approach. The approach involves a 10-year model with similar variables as described above for broadcasting licenses, except that the discounted cash flows are generally based on the Company’s estimated and projected market revenue, market share and operating performance for its reporting units, instead of those for a hypothetical participant. The Company is not applying the qualitative assessment as allowed by ASU 2011-08. We follow a two-step process to evaluate if a potential impairment exists for goodwill. The first step of the process involves estimating the fair value of each reporting unit. If the reporting unit’s fair value is less than its carrying value, a second step is performed as per the guidance of ASC 805-10, “Business Combinations,” to allocate the fair value of the reporting unit to the individual assets and liabilities of the reporting unit in order to determine the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill as of the impairment assessment date. Any excess of the carrying value of the goodwill over the implied fair value of the goodwill is written off as a charge to operations. Since our annual assessment, we have not made any changes to the methodology of valuing or allocating goodwill when determining the carrying values of the radio markets, Reach Media, Interactive One or TV One. Due to the fact that there was an impairment charge recognized for certain FCC licenses, we deemed to that to be an impairment indicator and as such, we performed an interim analysis for certain radio markets’ goodwill. No goodwill impairment was noted during the three or six months ended June 30, 2013. There were no impairment indicators noted for the three or six months ended June 30, 2012.

Other intangible assets continue to be amortized on a straight-line basis over their useful lives. We perform our annual impairment test as of October 1 of each year.

In calculating the discount rate, we considered: (i) the cost of equity, which includes estimates of the risk-free return, the long-term market return, small stock risk premiums and industry beta; (ii) the cost of debt, which includes estimates for corporate borrowing rates and tax rates; and (iii) estimated average percentages of equity and debt in capital structures. The discount rate used in this assessment reflects a premium for a riskier and broader media business, with a heavier concentration and significantly higher amount of programming content related intangible assets that are highly dependent on the on-air personality Tom Joyner.

The Company is not applying the qualitative assessment as allowed by ASU 2011-08. We follow a two-step process to evaluate if a potential impairment exists for goodwill. The first step of the process involves estimating the fair value of each reporting unit. If the reporting unit’s fair value is less than its carrying value, a second step is performed as per the guidance of ASC 805-10, “Business Combinations,” to allocate the fair value of the reporting unit to the individual assets and liabilities of the reporting unit in order to determine the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill as of the impairment assessment date. Any excess of the carrying value of the goodwill over the implied fair value of the goodwill is written off as a charge to operations. Since our annual assessment, we have not made any changes to the methodology of valuing or allocating goodwill when determining the carrying value of Reach Media.  No goodwill impairment was noted during the six months ended June 30, 2013 and June 30, 2012.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]

7.  INCOME TAXES:

The Company recorded a tax expense of approximately $11.4 million on a pre-tax loss from continuing operations of approximately $10.5 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2013, based on the actual effective tax rate for the current period. Because our income tax expense does not have a correlation to our pre-tax earnings, changes in those earnings can have a significant impact on the income tax expense we recognize.  The Company continues to estimate a range of possible outcomes due to the proportion of deferred tax expense from indefinite-lived intangible assets over pre-tax earnings. As a result, we believe the actual effective tax rate best represents the estimated effective rate for the six month period ended June 30, 2013, in accordance with ASC 740-270, "Interim Reporting."

As of June 30, 2013, the Company continues to maintain a full valuation allowance for entities, including Reach Media, for its net deferred tax assets, but excludes deferred tax liabilities related to indefinite-lived intangible assets. In accordance with ASC 740, "Accounting for Income Taxes", the Company continually assesses the adequacy of the valuation allowance by assessing the likely future tax consequences of events that have been realized in the Company's financial statements or tax returns, tax planning strategies, and future profitability.  As of June 30, 2013, the Company does not believe it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be realized.  As part of the assessment, the Company has not included the deferred tax liability related to indefinite-lived intangible assets as a source of future taxable income to support realization of the deferred tax assets.

3.  INCOME TAXES:

The Company estimates the provision for income taxes, income tax liabilities, deferred tax assets and liabilities, and any valuation allowances in accordance with ASC 740, “Income Taxes,” as it relates to accounting for income taxes in interim periods. We estimate effective tax rates based on local tax laws and statutory rates, apportionment factors, taxable income for our filing jurisdictions and disallowable items, among other factors. Audits by the Internal Revenue Service or state and local tax authorities could yield different interpretations from our own, and differences between taxes recorded and taxes owed per our filed returns could cause us to record additional taxes.

The Company recorded a tax expense of approximately $472,000 on pre-tax income of approximately $470,000 for the six month period ended June 30, 2013, based on the annualized effective tax rate of approximately 42.0%. The difference between the effective rate for the period and the federal statutory rate of 35.0% primarily relates to state and local taxes, and prior year true-ups.

3.  DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS:

As of June 2011, our remaining Boston radio station was made the subject of an LMA whereby we made available, for a fee, air time on this station to another party. As of November 2012, our Columbus, Ohio radio station operating under the call letters WJKR was made the subject of an LMA and was subsequently sold on February 15, 2013. The remaining assets and liabilities of stations sold and stations that we do not operate as they are the subject of an LMA have been reclassified as discontinued operations as of June 30, 2013, and December 31, 2012. Thus, stations sold and stations that we do not operate that are the subject of an LMA results from operations for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, have been reclassified as discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

The following table summarizes the operating results for the stations sold and stations that we do not operate that are the subject of an LMA and are classified as discontinued operations for all periods presented:

Credit Facilities

On March 31, 2011, the Company entered into a senior secured credit facility (the “2011 Credit Agreement”) with a syndicate of banks and simultaneously borrowed $386.0 million to retire all outstanding obligations under the Company’s previous amended and restated credit agreement and to fund our obligation with respect to a capital call initiated by TV One.  The total amount available under the 2011 Credit Agreement is $411.0 million, consisting of a $386.0 million senior bank term debt that matures on March 31, 2016, and a $25.0 million revolving loan facility that matures on March 31, 2015. Borrowings under the credit facilities are subject to compliance with certain covenants including, but not limited to, certain financial covenants. Proceeds from the credit facilities can be used for working capital, capital expenditures made in the ordinary course of business, its common stock repurchase program, permitted direct and indirect investments and other lawful corporate purposes. On December 19, 2012, the Company entered into an amendment to the 2011 Credit Agreement (the “December 2012 Amendment”). The December 2012 Amendment: (i) modifies financial covenant levels with respect to the Company's total-leverage, secured-leverage, and interest-coverage ratios; (ii) increases the amount of cash the Company can net for determination of its net indebtedness tests; and (iii) extends the time for certain of the 2011 Credit Agreement's call premium while reducing the time for its later and lower premium.

The 2011 Credit Agreement, as amended, contains affirmative and negative covenants that the Company is required to comply with, including:

(a) maintaining an interest coverage ratio of no less than:

§	1.10 to 1.00 on December 31, 2012, and the last day of each fiscal quarter through December 31, 2013;
§	1.20 to 1.00 on March 31, 2014, and the last day of each fiscal quarter through September 30, 2014;
§	1.25 to 1.00 on December 31, 2014, and the last day of each fiscal quarter through September 30, 2015; and
§	1.50 to 1.00 on December 31, 2015, and the last day of each fiscal quarter thereafter.

(b)   maintaining a senior secured leverage ratio of no greater than:

§	4.50 to 1.00 on September 30, 2012, and the last day of each fiscal quarter through December 31, 2013;
§	4.25 to 1.00 on March 31, 2014, and the last day of each fiscal quarter through June 30, 2014;
§	4.00 to 1.00 on September  30, 2014;
§	3.75 to 1.00 on December 31, 2014;
§	3.25 to 1.00 on March 31, 2015, and the last day of each fiscal quarter through September 30, 2015; and
§	2.75 to 1.00 on December 31, 2015, and the last day of each fiscal quarter thereafter.

(c)   maintaining a total leverage ratio of no greater than:

§	8.50 to 1.00 on December 31, 2012, and the last day of each fiscal quarter through December 31, 2013;
§	8.25 to 1.00 on March 31, 2014, and June 30, 2014;
§	8.00 to 1.00 on September 30, 2014;
§	7.50 to 1.00 on December 31, 2014;
§	6.50 to 1.00 on March 31, 2015, and the last day of each fiscal quarter through September 30, 2015; and
§	6.00 to 1.00 on December 31, 2015, and the last day of each fiscal quarter thereafter.

(d)   limitations on:

§	liens;
§	sale of assets;
§	payment of dividends; and
§	mergers.

As of June 30, 2013, ratios calculated in accordance with the 2011 Credit Agreement, as amended, are as follows:

	As of June 30, 2013			Covenant  Limit		Excess Coverage
Pro Forma Last Twelve Months Covenant EBITDA (In millions)	$	92.7
Pro Forma Last Twelve Months Interest Expense (In millions)	$	71.4

Total Leverage
Total Debt / Covenant EBITDA		7.37	x	8.50	x	1.13	x
EBITDA - Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization

In accordance with the 2011 Credit Agreement, as amended, the calculations for the ratios above do not include the operating results and related debt of TV One.

As of June 30, 2013, the Company was in compliance with all of its financial covenants under the 2011 Credit Agreement, as amended.

Under the terms of the 2011 Credit Agreement, as amended, interest on base rate loans is payable quarterly and interest on LIBOR loans is payable monthly or quarterly. The base rate is equal to the greater of: (i) the prime rate; (ii) the Federal Funds Effective Rate plus 0.50%; or (iii) the LIBOR Rate for a one-month period plus 1.00%.  The applicable margin on the 2011 Credit Agreement is between (i) 4.50% and 5.50% on the revolving portion of the facility and (ii) 5.00% (with a base rate floor of 2.5% per annum) and 6.00% (with a LIBOR floor of 1.5% per annum) on the term portion of the facility. The average interest rate was 7.50% for the three months ended June 30, 2013. Quarterly installments of 0.25%, or $960,000, of the principal balance on the term loan are payable on the last day of each March, June, September and December.

As of June 30, 2013, the Company had approximately $24.0 million of borrowing capacity under its revolving credit facility. After taking into consideration the financial covenants under the 2011 Credit Agreement, as amended, approximately $24.0 million was available to be borrowed.

As of June 30, 2013, the Company had outstanding approximately $375.4 million on its term credit facility. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company repaid approximately $1.0 million and $1.9 million, respectively under the 2011 Credit Agreement, as amended. According to the terms of the Credit Agreement, as amended, there was no term loan principal repayment based on its December 31, 2012 excess cash flow calculation. The original issue discount is being reflected as an adjustment to the carrying amount of the debt obligation and amortized to interest expense over the term of the credit facility.

Senior Subordinated Notes

On November 24, 2010, we issued $286.8 million of our 12¹/₂%/15% Senior Subordinated Notes due May 2016 (the “12¹/₂%/15% Senior Subordinated Notes due May 2016”) in a private placement and exchanged and then cancelled approximately $97.0 million of $101.5 million in aggregate principal amount outstanding of our 8 ⅞% senior subordinated notes due 2011 (the “2011 Notes”) and approximately $199.3 million of $200.0 million in aggregate principal amount outstanding of our 6³/₈% Senior Subordinated Notes that matured in February 2013 (the “2013 Notes” and the 2013 Notes together with the 2011 Notes, the “Prior Notes”).  We entered into supplemental indentures in respect of each of the Prior Notes which waived any and all existing defaults and events of default that had arisen or may have arisen that may be waived and eliminated substantially all of the covenants in each indenture governing the Prior Notes, other than the covenants to pay principal and interest on the Prior Notes when due, and eliminated or modified the related events of default. Subsequently, all remaining outstanding 2011 Notes were repurchased pursuant to the indenture governing the 2011 Notes, effective as of December 24, 2010.

As of June 30, 2013, the Company had outstanding $327.0 million of our 12¹/₂%/15% Senior Subordinated Notes due May 2016. The 12¹/₂%/15% Senior Subordinated Notes due May 2016 had a carrying value of $327.0 million and a fair value of approximately $327.0 million as of June 30, 2013. The fair values were determined based on the trading value of the instruments as of the reporting date.

Interest payments under the terms of the 6³/₈% Senior Subordinated Notes that matured in February 2013, were due in February and August.  Based on the $747,000 principal balance of the 6³/₈% Senior Subordinated Notes outstanding at December 31, 2012, interest payments of $24,000 were paid each February and August through February 2013.

Interest on the 12¹/₂%/15% Senior Subordinated Notes was initially payable in cash, or at our election, partially in cash and partially through the issuance of additional 12¹/₂%/15% Senior Subordinated Notes (a “PIK Election”) on a quarterly basis in arrears on February 15, May 15, August 15 and November 15, commencing on February 15, 2011.  We made a PIK Election with respect to interest accruing up to but not including May 15, 2012. With respect to interest accruing from and after May 15, 2012, such interest accrues at a rate of 12¹/₂% payable in cash.

Interest on the 12¹/₂%/15% Senior Subordinated Notes due May 2016 accrued from the date of original issuance or, if interest had already been paid, from the date it was most recently paid.  Interest accrues for each quarterly period at a rate of 12¹/₂% for such quarterly period that interest is paid fully in cash.  However, during the period the PIK Election was in effect, the interest paid in cash and the interest paid-in-kind by issuance of additional 12¹/₂%/15% Senior Subordinated Notes due May 2016 (“PIK Notes”) accrued for such quarterly period at 6.0% cash per annum and 9.0% PIK per annum.

A PIK Election remained in effect until May 14, 2012. Beginning on May 15, 2012, interest accrued at a rate of 12¹/₂% and was payable wholly in cash and the Company no longer had an option to pay any portion of its interest through the issuance of PIK Notes. During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company issued approximately $14.2 million of additional 12¹/₂%/15% Senior Subordinated Notes in accordance with the PIK Election that was in effect through May 14, 2012.

The indentures governing the Company’s 12¹/₂%/15% Senior Subordinated Notes also contain covenants that restrict, among other things, the ability of the Company to incur additional debt, purchase common 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 Company conducts a portion of its business through its subsidiaries. Certain of the Company’s subsidiaries have fully and unconditionally guaranteed the Company’s 12¹/₂%/15% Senior Subordinated Notes, the 6³/₈% Senior Subordinated Notes and the Company’s obligations under the 2011 Credit Agreement, as amended.

TV One Senior Secured Notes

In connection with the Redemption Financing, TV One issued $119.0 million in senior secured notes on February 25, 2011. The notes were issued in connection with the repurchase of equity interests from certain financial investors and TV One management. The notes bear interest at 10.0% per annum, which is payable monthly, and the entire principal amount is due on March 15, 2016.

Future scheduled minimum principal payments of debt as of June 30, 2013, are as follows:

	Credit Facility		Senior Subordinated Notes		TV One Senior Secured Notes		Total

13.  SUBSEQUENT EVENTS:

On July 22, 2013, the Company received notice from Katz Communications, Inc. and various of its divisions and affiliates (collectively, “Katz”) that Katz was terminating its national sales representation of the Company effective fourteen (14) months from the date of the notice, as provided under the terms of various representation agreements and a master representation agreement.   While the termination notice would provide for a termination of the relationship between the Company and Katz effective September 23, 2014 (the “Effective Termination Date”), the parties are in continued negotiation with respect to a new sales representation agreement.  While the Company cannot guarantee that an agreement will be reached with respect to continued sales representation by Katz, the Company anticipates completing a new sales representation agreement with Katz or another sales representative prior to the Effective Termination Date and does not anticipate any interruption with respect to national sales representation.

Since July 1, 2013, and through the date of this filing, the Company repurchased 512,300 shares of Class D common stock in the amount of $1,209,108 at an average price of $2.36 per share and 1,100 shares of Class A common stock in the amount of $2,655 at an average price of $2.41 per share. As of the date of this filing, the Company had approximately $57,000 available under its repurchase authorizations.

Effective July 30, 2013, the Company changed the format of one of its Cincinnati stations.  The Company changed its 100.3 frequency from a sports format to “Old School 100.3”.

During the third quarter of 2013, TV One gave notice to the former CEO that it will buy his outstanding interest. Subsequent to this redemption of management interest, Radio One’s ownership of TV One will increase to approximately 51.9%.

CONDENSED CONSOLIDATING FINANCIAL STATEMENTS:

6 Months Ended

Jun. 30, 2013

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

Additional Financial Information Disclosure [Text Block]

11.  CONDENSED CONSOLIDATING FINANCIAL STATEMENTS:

The Company conducts a portion of its business through its subsidiaries. All of the Company’s Subsidiary Guarantors have fully and unconditionally guaranteed the Company’s 6³/₈% Senior Subordinated Notesdue February 2013, the 12¹/ ₂%/15% Senior Subordinated Notesdue May 2016, and the Company’s obligations under the 2011 Credit Agreement, as amended. 

On February 14, 2013, one of our subsidiaries, Reach Media, became a guarantor with respect to the 2011 Credit Agreement. This change in status has been retrospectively reflected in the accompanying consolidating financial statements.

Set forth below are consolidating balance sheets for the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors as of June 30, 2013, and December 31, 2012, and the related consolidating statements of operations, comprehensive loss and cash flows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012. We have applied the equity method of accounting to report our investments in subsidiaries. Separate financial statements for the subsidiary guarantors are not presented (except as described below) based on management’s determination that those financial statements do not provide additional information that is material to investors. 

The Radio One, Inc. column of the condensed consolidating financial statements reflects the assets directly owned by Radio One, Inc., which consist of assets for several radio markets, and also includes the FCC licenses associated with those markets whose assets are directly owned by Radio One, Inc.

The non-wholly owned subsidiaries column of the condensed consolidating financial information reflects the financial statement activity for Reach Media. The Company, through one of its guarantor subsidiaries, has an 80% ownership interest in Reach Media. We have also included separate financial statements for Reach Media for the financial statement periods covered by this filing.

The non-guarantor subsidiary column of the condensed consolidating financial information reflects the financial statement activity for TV One, LLC (“TV One”). Radio One, through one of its guarantor subsidiaries, has an approximately 51% ownership interest in TV One. The financial information within this column does not reflect the Company’s basis in TV One as the “push down” of this basis would not be required or permitted in separate financial statements of TV One.

The consolidation adjustments column reflects consolidating adjustments to: (i) eliminate the investment in subsidiaries, (ii), reflect the Company’s basis in TV One, (iii) allocate the consolidated net income to the noncontrolling interests, and (iv) eliminate intercompany transactions.

In connection with preparing the quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2013, the Company identified misclassifications in its previously filed financial statements related to the condensed consolidating financial statements of guarantors in the notes to its previously filed financial statements in its quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2013 (the “First Quarter 10-Q”) and in its annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 (the “2012 10-K”). The misclassifications primarily relate to: (i) including TV One in the “Radio One, Inc.” column in the condensed consolidating financial statements in each of the 2012 10-K and the First Quarter 10-Q although TV One is a non-guarantor subsidiary of the Company under its outstanding notes registered under the Securities Act of 1933; (ii) including Reach Media, Inc. (“Reach Media”) in the “Radio One, Inc.” column in the condensed consolidating financial statements in the 2012 10-K although Reach Media was a non-guarantor subsidiary for that reporting period; and (iii) after Reach Media became a guarantor under the Company’s outstanding registered notes on February 14, 2013, including Reach Media in the “Wholly-Owned Guarantor Subsidiaries” column in the condensed consolidating financial statements in the First Quarter 10-Q and the comparative period in 2012 rather than a separate column for “non-wholly owned guarantor subsidiaries”. Additionally, the Company determined separate financial statements for Reach Media should have been included in the First Quarter 10-Q because it is not wholly owned by the Company. The accompanying condensed consolidating financial statements for the current period reflect these corrections. In consultation with its audit committee, management has concluded it will amend the previously filed financial statements in its 2012 10-K and First Quarter 2013 10-Q to reflect these corrections in those filings. These changes have no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, including its consolidated balance sheets, consolidated statements of operations, consolidated statements of comprehensive income, consolidated statements of changes in equity or consolidated statements of cash flows for any previously reported period.

12. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:

Royalty Agreements

Effective December 31, 2009, our radio music license agreements with the two largest performance rights organizations, American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (“ASCAP”) and Broadcast Music, Inc. (“BMI”) expired. The Radio Music License Committee (“RMLC”), which negotiates music licensing fees for most of the radio industry with ASCAP and BMI, at that time, reached an agreement with these organizations on a temporary fee schedule that reflected a provisional discount of 7.0% against 2009 fee levels. The temporary fee reductions became effective in January 2010. In May 2010 and June 2010, the U.S. District Court’s judge charged with determining the licenses fees ruled to further reduce interim fees paid to ASCAP and BMI, respectively, down approximately another 11.0% from the previous temporary fees negotiated with the RMLC. In January 2012, the U.S. District Court approved a settlement between RMLC and ASCAP. The settlement determined the amount to be paid to ASCAP for usage through 2016. In addition, stations received a credit for overpayments made in 2010 and 2011 to ASCAP. In June 2012, RMLC and BMI reached a settlement agreement. The settlement covers the period through 2016 and determined a new fee structure based on percentage of revenue. In addition, stations received a credit for overpayments made in 2010 and 2011 to BMI.

The Company has entered into other fixed and variable fee music license agreements with other performance rights organizations, which expire as late as December 2016. In connection with all performance rights organization agreements, including ASCAP and BMI, the Company incurred expenses of approximately $2.5 million and $4.8 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2013, respectively, and approximately $2.6 million and $5.4 million, respectively, for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2012.

Other Contingencies

The Company has been named as a defendant in several legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. It is management’s opinion, after consultation with its legal counsel, that the outcome of these claims will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of June 30, 2013, the Company had four standby letters of credit totaling $1.0 million in connection with our annual insurance policy renewals and real estate leases.

Noncontrolling Interest Shareholders’ Put Rights

Beginning on February 28, 2012, the noncontrolling interest shareholders of Reach Media had an annual right to require Reach Media to purchase all or a portion of their shares at the then current fair market value for such shares (the “Put Right”).   Beginning in 2012, this annual right was exercisable for a 30-day period beginning February 28 of each year. The purchase price for such shares may be paid in cash and/or registered Class D Common Stock of Radio One, at the discretion of Radio One. On December 31, 2012, Reach Media and its noncontrolling interest shareholders amended the shareholder’s agreement governing their relationship. As part of that amendment, the noncontrolling interest shareholders agreed to delay the Put Right until January 1, 2018. The terms of the Put Right remain the same in all other respects.
