The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements are presented post-conversion as Townsquare Media, Inc. (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, except as the context may otherwise require, “we,” “us,” “our,” “Company,” or “Townsquare”). Pursuant to the conversion, each unit and warrant to purchase units of Townsquare Media, LLC was exchanged for a number of shares of Class A, Class B or Class C common stock of Townsquare Media Inc., and warrants to purchase shares of Class A common stock of Townsquare Media, Inc.
