FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT FOR PURPOSES OF THE “SAFE HARBOR” PROVISIONS OF THE PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995.

Statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Quarterly Report”), including the exhibits attached hereto, future filings by us with the Securities and Exchange Commission, our press releases and oral statements made by, or with the approval of, our authorized personnel, that relate to our future performance or future events, may contain certain statements about Hemisphere Media Group, Inc. (the “Company”) and its consolidated subsidiaries that do not directly or exclusively relate to historical facts. These statements are, or may be deemed to be, “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

These forward-looking statements are necessarily estimates reflecting the best judgment and current expectations, plans, assumptions and beliefs about future events (in each case subject to change) of our senior management and management of our subsidiaries (including target businesses) and involve a number of risks, uncertainties and other factors, some of which may be beyond our control that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in such forward-looking statements. Without limitation, any statements preceded or followed by or that include the words “targets,” “plans,” “believes,” “expects,” “intends,” “will,” “likely,” “may,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “projects,” “should,” “would,” “could,” “might,” “expect,” “positioned,” “strategy,” “future,” “potential,” “forecast,” or words, phrases or terms of similar substance or the negative thereof, are forward-looking statements. These include, but are not limited to, the Company’s future financial and operating results (including growth and earnings), plans, objectives, expectations and intentions and other statements that are not historical facts.

We claim the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 for all forward-looking statements.

Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of performance. If one or more of these factors materialize, or if any underlying assumptions prove incorrect, our actual results, performance, or achievements may vary materially from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Additionally, many of these risks are currently amplified by and may, in the future, continue to be amplified by the prolonged impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition to the risk factors described in “Item 1A-Risk Factors” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, those factors include:

● the deterioration of general economic conditions, political instability, social unrest, and public health crises, such as the occurrence of a global pandemic like COVID-19, including measures taken by governmental authorities to address the pandemic, which may precipitate or exacerbate other risks and/or uncertainties, recent increases in, and any additional waves of, COVID-19 cases, new variants of the virus, such as the Delta variant, as well as the availability and efficacy of a vaccine and treatments for the disease and whether individuals choose to vaccinate themselves, either nationally or in the local markets in which we operate, including, without limitation, in the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico;

● Puerto Rico’s uncertain political climate, as well as delays in the disbursement of earmarked federal funds on the local economy and advertising market;

● the effects of extreme weather and climate events on our Business as well as our counterparties, customers, employees, third-party vendors and suppliers;

● changes in technology, including changes in the distribution and viewing of television programming, including expanded deployment of personal video recorders, subscription and advertising video on-demand, internet protocol television, mobile personal devices and personal tablets and their impact on subscription and television advertising revenue;

● the reaction by advertisers, programming providers, strategic partners, the Federal Communications Commission (the “FCC”) or other government regulators to businesses that we acquire;

● the potential for viewership of our Networks or Pantaya’s programming to decline or unexpected reductions in the number of subscribers to our Networks or Pantaya;

● the risk that we may fail to secure sufficient or additional advertising and/or subscription revenue;

4

● the inability of advertisers or affiliates to remit payment to us in a timely manner or at all;

● the risk that we may become responsible for certain liabilities of the businesses that we acquire, including our recent acquisition of Pantaya, or joint ventures we enter into;

● future financial performance, including our ability to obtain additional financing in the future on favorable terms;

● the failure of our Business to produce projected revenues or cash flows;

● reduced access to capital markets or significant increases in borrowing costs;

● our ability to successfully manage relationships with customers and Distributors and other important third parties;

● continued consolidation of Distributors in the marketplace;

● a failure to secure affiliate agreements or the renewal of such agreements on less favorable terms;

● disagreements with our Distributors over contract interpretation;

● our success in acquiring, investing in and integrating businesses;

● the outcome of any pending or threatened litigation;

● the loss of key personnel and/or talent or expenditure of a greater amount of resources attracting, retaining and motivating key personnel than in the past;

● strikes or other union job actions that affect our operations, including, without limitation, failure to renew our collective bargaining agreements on mutually favorable terms;

● the failure or destruction of satellites or transmitter facilities that we depend upon to distribute our Networks;

● uncertainties inherent in the development of new business lines and business strategies;

● changes in pricing and availability of products and services;

● uncertainties regarding the financial results of equity method investees and changes in the nature of key strategic relationships with partners and Distributors;

● changes in domestic and foreign laws or regulations under which we operate;

● changes in laws or treaties relating to taxation, or the interpretation thereof, in the U.S. or in the countries in which we operate;

● the ability of suppliers and vendors to deliver products and services;

● our ability to timely and fully recover proceeds under our insurance policies;

● fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and political unrest and regulatory changes in the international markets in which we operate;

● changes in the size of the U.S. Hispanic population, including the impact of federal and state immigration legislation and policies on both the U.S. Hispanic population and persons emigrating from Latin America;

● changes in, or failure or inability to comply with, government regulations including, without limitation, regulations of the FCC, and adverse outcomes from regulatory proceedings; and

5

● competitor responses to our products and services.

The list of factors above is illustrative, but by no means exhaustive. All forward-looking statements should be evaluated with the understanding of their inherent uncertainty. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements concerning the matters addressed in this Quarterly Report and attributable to us or any person acting on our behalf are qualified by these cautionary statements.

The forward-looking statements are based on current expectations about future events and are not guarantees of future performance, and are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, these expectations may not be achieved. We may change our intentions, beliefs or expectations at any time and without notice, based upon any change in our assumptions or otherwise. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 1. Nature of Business

Nature of business: The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Hemisphere Media Group, Inc. (“Hemisphere” or the “Company”), the parent holding company of Cine Latino, Inc. (“Cinelatino”), WAPA Holdings, LLC (formerly known as InterMedia Español Holdings, LLC) (“WAPA Holdings”), HMTV Cable, Inc. (“HMTV Cable”), the parent company of the entities for the acquired networks consisting of Pasiones, TV Dominicana, and Centroamerica TV, HMTV Distribution, LLC (“HMTV Distribution”), the parent of Snap Global, LLC, and its wholly owned subsidiaries (“Snap Media”), which we acquired a 75% interest on November 26, 2018, and HMTV DTC, LLC (“HMTV DTC”), the parent company of Pantaya, LLC, and its subsidiaries (“Pantaya”), including a joint venture, ASG Latin, LLC, which we acquired on March 31, 2021 (see below). Hemisphere was formed on January 16, 2013 for purposes of effecting its initial public offering, which was consummated on April 4, 2013. In these notes, the terms “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our” mean Hemisphere and all subsidiaries included in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Prior to March 31, 2021, the Company owned a 25% equity interest in Pantaya, which was accounted for as an equity method investment. On March 31, 2021, the Company acquired the remaining 75% equity interest in Pantaya (the “Pantaya Acquisition”), for a cash purchase price of $123.6 million. As a result of the acquisition, Pantaya is now a wholly owned consolidated subsidiary. For more information, see Note 3, “Business Combination” of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Reclassification: Certain prior year amounts on the presented Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation.

Basis of presentation: The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for Hemisphere and its subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations, although we believe that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading. In our opinion, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair statement have been included. Our financial condition as of, and operating results, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the financial condition or results that may be expected for any future interim period or for the year ending December 31, 2021. These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Net (loss) income per common share: Basic (loss) income per share is computed by dividing loss attributable to Hemisphere Media Group, Inc. common stockholders by the number of weighted-average outstanding shares of common stock. Diluted (loss) income per share reflects the effect of the assumed exercise of stock options and vesting of restricted shares only in the periods in which such effect would have been dilutive.

13

The following table sets forth the computation of the common shares outstanding used in determining basic and diluted (loss) income per share attributable to Hemisphere Media Group, Inc. (amounts in thousands, except per share amounts):

	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2021		2020		2021		2020
Numerator for (loss) income per common share calculation:
Net (loss) income attributable to Hemisphere Media Group, Inc.	$	(6,286)	$	(6,682)	$	27,072	$	(16,110)
Denominator for (loss) income per common share calculation:
Weighted-average common shares, basic		39,641		39,444		39,511		39,378
Effect of dilutive securities
Stock options and restricted stock		—		—		389		—
Weighted-average common shares, diluted		39,641		39,444		39,900		39,378
(Loss) income per share attributable to Hemisphere Media Group, Inc.
Basic	$	(0.16)	$	(0.17)	$	0.69	$	(0.41)
Diluted	$	(0.16)	$	(0.17)	$	0.68	$	(0.41)

We apply the treasury stock method to measure the dilutive effect of our outstanding stock options and restricted stock awards and include the respective common share equivalents in the denominator of our diluted (loss) income per common share calculation. Per the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 260, under the treasury stock method, the incremental shares (difference between the number of shares assumed issued and the number of shares assumed purchased) shall be included in the denominator of the diluted (loss) income per share computation (ASC 260-10-45-23). The assumed exercise only occurs when the options are “In the Money” (exercise price is lower than the average market price for the period). If the options are “Out of the Money” (exercise price is higher than the average market price for the period), the exercise is not assumed since the result would be anti-dilutive. Potentially dilutive securities representing 1.6 million and 3.9 million shares of common stock for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, were excluded from the computation of diluted loss per common share for these periods because their effect would have been anti-dilutive. Potentially dilutive securities representing 2.1 million and 2.8 million shares of common stock for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, were excluded from the computation of diluted (loss) income per common share for these periods because their effects would have been anti-dilutive. The net (loss) income per share attributable to Hemisphere Media Group, Inc. amounts are the same for our Class A and Class B common stock because the holders of each class are legally entitled to equal per share distributions whether through dividends or in liquidation.

As a result of the loss from operations for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, 0.4 million and 0.0 million, respectively, outstanding awards were excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share because their effect was anti-dilutive. As a result of the loss from operations for the six months ended June 30, 2020, 0.3 million outstanding awards were excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share because their effect was anti-dilutive.

Risks and uncertainties: In March 2020, the World Health Organization characterized the coronavirus (“COVID-19”) as a pandemic, and the President of the United States declared the COVID-19 outbreak a national emergency. The rapid spread of COVID-19 and the continuously evolving responses to combat it have had a negative impact on the global economy. Even during these unprecedented times, we have continued the production of news and entertainment programming, as our viewers rely on our Networks to keep them informed.

14

The impact of COVID-19 and measures to prevent its spread have continued to affect our businesses in a number of ways. Beginning in March 2020, the Company experienced adverse advertising revenue impacts. Operationally, most non-production and programming personnel are working remotely, and the Company has restricted business travel. The Company has managed the remote workforce transition effectively and there have been no material adverse impacts on operations through June 30, 2021. While the Company’s advertising revenue improved in second half of 2020 and continued into the first half of 2021, the Company is unable to reasonably predict the impact that a significant change in circumstances, including the ability of our workforce and/or key personnel to work effectively because of illness, government actions or other restrictions in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic, may have on our businesses in the future. The nature and full extent of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our future operations will depend on numerous factors, all of which are highly uncertain and cannot be reasonably predicted. These factors include the length and severity of the outbreak, including the extent of surges in positive cases related to variants of COVID-19, such as the Delta variant, as well as the availability and efficacy of vaccines and treatments for the disease and whether individuals choose to vaccinate themselves, the responses of private sector businesses and governments, including the timing and amount of government stimulus, the impact on economic activity and the impact on our customers, employees and suppliers. For more information on the risks associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, see “Item 1A-Risk Factors” included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.

The Company has evaluated and continues to evaluate the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, including the impairment of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets and the fair value of equity method investments. The ultimate impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, including the extent of any adverse impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition, remains uncertain.

Use of estimates: In preparing these financial statements, management had to make estimates and assumptions that affected the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the balance sheet dates, and the reported revenues and expenses for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. Such estimates are based on historical experience and other assumptions that are considered appropriate in the circumstances. However, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Recently adopted Accounting Standards: On January 1, 2021, we adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“the FASB”) ASU 2019-12—Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. The updated guidance simplifies the accounting for income taxes in several areas by removing certain exceptions and by clarifying and amending existing guidance applicable to accounting for income taxes. The adoption of this ASU did not have an impact on our accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Accounting guidance not yet adopted: In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04-Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. The update provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP principles to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) or another reference rate expected to be discontinued due to reference rate reform. This guidance was effective beginning on March 12, 2020, and can be adopted on a prospective basis no later than December 31, 2022, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact, if any, that the updated accounting guidance will have on our accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Note 2. Revenue Recognition

The following is a description of principal activities from which we generate our revenue:

Subscriber revenue: We enter into arrangements with multi-channel video distributors, such as cable, satellite and telecommunications companies (referred to as “MVPDs”) to provide a continuous feed of our Networks generally based on a per subscriber fee pursuant to multi-year contracts, referred to as “affiliation agreements”, which typically provide for annual rate increases. We have used the practical expedient related to the right to invoice and recognize revenue at the amount to which we have the right to invoice for services performed. The specific subscriber revenue we earn varies from period to period, distributor to distributor and also vary among our Networks, but are generally based upon the number of each distributor’s paying subscribers who subscribe to our Networks. Changes in subscriber revenue are primarily derived from changes in contractual per subscriber rates charged for our Networks and changes in the number of subscribers. MVPDs report their subscriber numbers to us generally on a two month lag. We record revenue based on estimates of the number of subscribers utilizing the most recently received remittance reporting of each MVPD, which is consistent with our past practice and industry practice. Revenue is recognized on a month by month basis when the performance obligations to provide service to the MVPDs is satisfied. Payment is typically received within sixty days of the remittance. We also generate subscriber revenue from monthly subscriptions to Pantaya, our subscription video on demand (“SVOD”) service. The SVOD service is available directly to consumers through our web application as well as through distribution partners. Certain distribution partners charge a fee, which is recorded in cost of revenues. Subscribers are billed at the start of their monthly or annual membership and revenue is recognized ratably over each applicable membership period. Subscriber revenue varies from period to period and is generally based upon the number of paying subscribers to our SVOD service. Estimates of revenue generated but not yet reported by the Company’s third party distributors are made based on the estimated number of subscribers using recent reporting.

Advertising revenue: Advertising revenue is generated from the sale of commercial time, which is typically sold pursuant to sale orders with advertisers providing for an agreed upon commitment and price per spot. We recognize revenue from the sale of advertising as performance obligations are satisfied upon airing of the advertising; therefore, revenue is recognized at a point in time when each advertising spot is transmitted. Agency fees are calculated based on a stated percentage applied to gross billing revenue for our advertising inventory and are reported as a reduction of advertising revenue. Payment is typically due and received within thirty days of the invoice date.

Other revenue: Other revenues are derived primarily through the licensing of content to third parties. We enter into agreements to license content and recognize revenue when the performance obligation is satisfied and control is transferred, which is generally upon delivery of the content.

The following table presents the revenues disaggregated by revenue source (amounts in thousands):

	Three months ended June 30,
Revenues by type	2021		2020
Subscriber revenue	$	32,218	$	19,273
Advertising revenue		17,269		12,378
Other revenue		973		3,084
Total revenue	$	50,460	$	34,735

	Six months ended June 30,
Revenues by type	2021		2020
Subscriber revenue	$	52,167	$	39,106
Advertising revenue		33,175		24,194

Note 3. Business Combination

Prior to March 31, 2021, the Company owned a 25% equity interest in Pantaya, which was accounted for as an equity method investment. On March 31, 2021, the Company acquired the remaining 75% equity interest in Pantaya (the “Pantaya Acquisition”). As a result of the acquisition, Pantaya is now a wholly owned consolidated subsidiary. Pantaya is the leading U.S. Hispanic subscription streaming service offering the largest selection of current and classic, commercial free blockbusters and critically acclaimed movies and series from Latin America and the U.S. including original productions from Pantaya’s production arm, Pantelion, and titles from our library, as well as titles from third party providers such as Lionsgate and Grupo Televisa.

Total cash purchase price in connection with the Pantaya Acquisition was $123.6 million. Under the terms of the purchase agreement (“Securities Purchase Agreement”), control of Pantaya transferred to the Company on March 31, 2021 (“Acquisition Date”), with cash consideration transferred on April 1, 2021. Cash consideration was funded with a combination of cash on hand and an add-on to our Term Loan Facility. For more information, see Note 8, “Long-Term Debt” of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Pantaya Acquisition were $1.4 million and $8.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, consisting primarily of professional fees and certain non-cash charges, which are included in other expenses in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.

Prior to the closing of the Pantaya Acquisition, the Company accounted for the existing 25% equity interest in Pantaya using the equity method, and the net book value was $0 as of March 31, 2021. The Company accounted for the acquisition of the 75% equity interest of Pantaya as a step acquisition, which required remeasurement of the Company’s existing 25% ownership interest in Pantaya to fair value prior to completing the acquisition method of accounting. Using step acquisition accounting, the Company increased the value of its existing equity interest to its fair value resulting in the recognition of a non-cash gain of $30.1 million, which was included in gain (loss) on equity method investment activity in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the six months ended June 30, 2021. For more information, see Note 10, “Fair Value Measurements” of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

The Pantaya Acquisition was accounted for as a business combination by applying the acquisition method of accounting pursuant to ASC Topic 805, “Business Combinations”. Due to the timing of the Pantaya Acquisition, the amounts recorded for assets acquired, liabilities assumed, total consideration, and our existing 25% equity interest in Pantaya reflects preliminary fair value estimates based on management analysis, which the Company is still in the process of reviewing and finalizing. Until the Company finalizes the valuation process, there may be adjustments during the measurement period.

The following table summarizes the purchase price consideration in connection with the Pantaya Acquisition as of March 31, 2021 (amounts in thousands):

Total cash consideration	$	123,605
Class A common stock consideration(a)		2,188
Effective settlement of pre-existing receivables and payables, net(b)		1,499
Total consideration		127,292
Fair value of existing 25% equity interest		30,092
Total	$	157,384

(a)Calculated as 238,436 shares issued to certain employees, who held Pantaya stock-based compensation awards, multiplied by $11.65, which was the closing price of a share of the Company’s common stock on March 31, 2021, reduced by post-combination expense of approximately $0.6 million associated with the excess fair value over replacement awards.

(b)Effective settlement of pre-existing accounts receivable of $2.3 million for content licensed to Pantaya and programming rights payable of $0.8 million for content licensed from Pantaya prior to the Acquisition Date.

17

The following table summarizes the preliminary fair values of the assets acquired, liabilities assumed and resulting goodwill in the Pantaya Acquisition as of March 31, 2021 (amounts in thousands):

	March 31, 2021
Cash	$	985
Accounts receivable		5,203
Fixed assets		602
Finite-lived intangible assets – programming rights		30,767
Other assets		6,731
Accounts payable		(2,807)
Accrued expenses		(13,049)
Film obligations		(15,225)
Goodwill		144,177
Fair value of net assets acquired	$	157,384

The preliminary fair value of the accounts receivable is based on the net realizable value and no amounts are believed to be uncollectible.

The preliminary fair value of the finite-lived intangible assets, which consists of programming rights, is $30.8 million. This finite-lived intangible asset will be amortized on a straight-line basis over the weighted-average useful life of 4.6 years. The Company has not yet finalized the estimated fair values of the net assets acquired.

Goodwill of $144.2 million represents Company-specific operational synergies and the future growth opportunities of Pantaya’s subscription streaming service. The goodwill associated with the transaction is expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

Note 6. Equity Method Investments

The Company makes investments that support its underlying business strategy and enables it to enter new markets. The Company holds equity investments in Canal 1 and Snap JV (in each case, as defined and discussed below), which are variable interest entities (“VIEs”), for which the Company is not the primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary is the party involved with the VIE that (i) has the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance, and (ii) has the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The activities of each VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance are controlled by the VIE’s board of directors and the Company’s representation on the board of directors of each VIE is commensurate with its voting equity interest. As the Company does not hold a majority voting interest or disproportionate voting or other rights, it does not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of any of these VIEs.

On November 30, 2016, we, in partnership with Colombian content producers, Radio Television Interamericana S.A., Compania de Medios de Informacion S.A.S. and NTC Nacional de Television y Comunicaciones S.A., were awarded a ten (10) year renewable television broadcast concession license for Canal 1 in Colombia. The partnership began operating Canal 1 on May 1, 2017. On February 7, 2018, Colombian regulatory authorities approved an increase in our ownership in the joint venture from 20% to 40%. In July 2019, the Colombian government enacted legislation resulting in the extension of the concession license for Canal 1 for an additional ten years for no additional consideration. The concession is now due to expire on April 30, 2037 and is renewable for an additional 20-year period. The joint venture is deemed a VIE that is accounted for under the equity method. As of June 30, 2021, we have funded $121.1 million in capital contributions to Canal 1. The Canal 1 joint venture losses-to-date have exceeded the capital contributions of the common equity partners and in accordance with equity method accounting, losses in excess of the common equity have been recorded against the next layer of the capital structure, in this case, preferred equity. The Company is currently the sole preferred equity holder in Canal 1 and therefore, the Company has recorded nearly 100% of the losses of the joint venture. We record the income or loss on investment on a one quarter lag. For the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, we recorded $8.6 million and $10.2 million in loss on equity method investment in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, we recorded $6.0 million and $17.0 million in loss on equity method investment activity in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, respectively. The net balance recorded in equity method investments related to the Canal 1 joint venture was $25.4 million and $29.9 million as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, and is included in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we had a receivable balance from Canal 1 of $2.6 million, and is included in other assets in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

On April 28, 2017, we acquired a 25.5% interest in REMEZCLA, a digital media company targeting English speaking and bilingual U.S. Hispanic millennials through innovative content, for $5.0 million. At March 31, 2020, given the negative impacts caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and the associated liquidity and going-concern uncertainties related to REMEZCLA, the Company determined that the investment in REMEZCLA was other-than-temporarily impaired and recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $5.5 million reflecting the write-off of the full carrying amount of our investment. The write-off was recorded in impairment of equity method investment in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Due to the write-off of the investment carrying value, we did not record any share of the loss from the investment for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. The net balance recorded in equity method investments related to REMEZCLA was $0 million as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

On November 26, 2018, Snap Media acquired a 50% interest in Snap JV, LLC (“Snap JV”) (we own 75% of Snap Media), a newly formed joint venture with Mar Vista Entertainment, LLC (“MarVista”), to co-produce original movies and series. The investment is deemed a VIE that is accounted for under the equity method. As of June 30, 2021, we have funded $0.4 million into Snap JV. We record the income or loss on investment on a one quarter lag. For each of the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, we recorded $0 million in loss on equity method investments in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, we recorded $0 million and $0.2 million, respectively, in loss on equity method investments in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The net balance recorded in equity method investments related to Snap JV was $0.1 million as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, and is included in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

On March 31, 2021, the Company acquired the remaining 75% equity interest in Pantaya. As a result of the acquisition, Pantaya is now a wholly owned consolidated subsidiary, and as of April 1, 2021, is no longer treated as an equity method investment. For more information, see Note 3, “Business Combination” of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Note 7. Income Taxes

The 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“Jobs Act”) was enacted on December 22, 2017. The Jobs Act revised the U.S. corporate income tax by lowering the statutory corporate tax rate from 35% to 21% in 2018. The Company generates income in higher tax rate foreign locations, which result in foreign tax credits. The lower federal corporate tax rate reduces the likelihood of our utilization of foreign tax credits created by income taxes paid in Puerto Rico and Latin America, resulting in a valuation allowance. Additionally, the Company evaluated the potential interest limitation established under the tax act and determined that no limitation would affect the 2021 provision for income taxes.

For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, our income tax expense has been computed utilizing an estimated annual effective tax rate of 46.7% and 35.7%, respectively. The difference between the annual effective rate of 46.7% and the statutory Federal income tax rate of 21% in the six month period ended June 30, 2021, is primarily due to the impact of the Tax Act, which impacted the valuation allowance on foreign tax credits, and limitations on the deductibility of executive compensation under Internal Revenue Code Section 162(m). The annual effective tax rate related to income generated in the U.S. is 31.8%. Due to the reduced U.S. tax rate, the Company determined that a portion of its foreign income, which is taxed at a higher rate, will result in the generation of excess foreign tax credits that will not be available to offset U.S. income tax. As a result, 14.9% of the annual effective rate relates to the required valuation allowance against the excess foreign tax credits, bringing the annual effective tax rate for the six month period ended June 30, 2021 to 46.7%. Additionally, the gain related to the step acquisition of Pantaya of $30.1 million was determined to be significant and infrequent, and as a result, this item has not been included in the annual effective tax rate.

The difference between the annual effective rate of 35.7% and the statutory Federal income tax rate of 21% in the six month period ended June 30, 2020, is primarily due to the impact of the Tax Act , which impacted the valuation allowance on foreign tax credits, and limitations on the deductibility of executive compensation under Internal Revenue Code Section 162(m). The annual effective tax rate related to income generated in the U.S. is 26.3%. Due to the reduced U.S. tax rate, the Company determined that a portion of its foreign income, which is taxed at a higher rate, will result in the generation of excess foreign tax credits that will not be available to offset U.S. income tax. As a result, 9.4% of the annual effective rate relates to the required valuation allowance against the excess foreign tax credits, bringing the annual effective tax rate for the six month period ended June 30, 2020 to 35.7%.

Income tax expense was $1.8 million and $2.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Income tax expense was $3.1 million and $1.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Note 8. Long-Term Debt

Long-term debt as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 consists of the following (amounts in thousands):

	June 30, 2021		December 31, 2020
Senior Notes due February 2024	$	250,289	$	202,990
Less: Current portion		2,686		2,134
	$	247,603	$	200,856

On February 14, 2017, Hemisphere Media Holdings, LLC (“Holdings”) and InterMedia Español, Inc. (together with Holdings, the “Borrowers”), both wholly owned, indirect subsidiaries of the Company, amended the Term Loan Facility (the “Second Amended Term Loan Facility”). The Second Amended Term Loan Facility provides for a $213.3 million senior secured term loan B facility, and matures on February 14, 2024. The Second Amended Term Loan Facility bore interest at the Borrowers’ option of either (i) London Inter-bank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus a margin of 3.50% or (ii) an Alternate Base Rate (“ABR”) plus a margin of 2.50%.

On March 31, 2021 (the “Closing Date”), the Borrowers amended the Term Loan Facility, as previously amended (the “Third Amended Term Loan Facility”), for the borrowing of a new tranche of term loans in the aggregate principal amount of $50.0 million and matures on February 14, 2024. The Third Amended Term Loan Facility bears interest at the Borrowers’ option of either (i) LIBOR plus a margin of 3.50% or (ii) an ABR plus a margin of 2.50%. There is no LIBOR floor. The add-on to the term loan B facility was issued with 4.0% of original issue discount (“OID”).

22

Additionally, the Third Amended Term Loan Facility provides for a revolving loan (the “Revolving Facility”) allowing for an aggregate principal amount of up to $30.0 million. The Revolving Facility is secured on a pari passu basis by the collateral securing the Third Amended Term Loan Facility and will mature on November 15, 2023. The Revolving Facility will bear interest at the Borrowers’ option of either (i) LIBOR (which will not be less than zero) plus a margin of 2.75% or (ii) or an ABR plus a margin of 1.75%, in each case, with a 25 basis points (“bps”) step-up at a First Lien Net Leverage Ratio level of 3.50:1.00 and two 25 bps step-downs at a First Lien Net Leverage Ratio level of 2.50:1.00 and 1.50:1.00. The First Lien Net Leverage Ratio limits the amount of cash netted against debt to a maximum amount of $60.0 million. The Borrowers are also required to pay a quarterly commitment fee on the undrawn balance of the Revolving Facility at 37.5 bps per annum. As of June 30, 2021, the Revolving Facility was undrawn.

The Third Amended Term Loan Facility does not have any maintenance covenants. The Revolving Facility will have a springing First Lien Net Leverage Ratio of no greater than 5.00:1.00, tested commencing with the last day of the fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2021, and the last day of each fiscal quarter thereafter, solely to the extent that on such day, the aggregate amount of revolving loans and letter of credit exposure (excluding up to $5.0 million of undrawn letters of credit and cash collateralized or backstopped letters of credit) exceeds 35% of the aggregate commitments under the Revolving Facility.

The Third Amended Term Loan Facility requires the Borrowers to make amortization payments (in quarterly installments) equal to 1.00% per annum with respect to the Third Amended Term Loan Facility with any remaining amount due at final maturity. The Third Amended Term Loan Facility principal payments commenced on June 30, 2021, with a final installment due on February 14, 2024. Voluntary prepayments are permitted, in whole or in part, subject to certain minimum prepayment requirements.

Within 90 days after the end of each fiscal year, the Borrowers are required to make a prepayment of the loan principal in an amount equal to a percentage of the excess cash flow of the most recently completed fiscal year. Excess cash flow is generally defined as net income plus depreciation and amortization expense, less mandatory prepayments of the term loan, income taxes and capital expenditures, and adjusted for the change in working capital. The percentage of the excess cash flow used to determine the amount of the prepayment of the loan declines from 50% to 25%, and again to 0% at lower leverage ratios. Pursuant to the terms of the Second Amended Term Loan Facility, our Net Leverage Ratio was 2.3x at December 31, 2020, resulting in an excess cash flow percentage of 0% and therefore, no excess cash flow payment was due in March 2021.

In accordance with ASC 470 – Debt, the Incremental Facility borrowing was deemed a modification of the Second Term Loan Facility and as such, an additional $2.0 million of OID incurred in connection with the Third Amended Term Loan Facility was added to the existing OID. As of June 30, 2021, the original issue discount balance was $2.7 million, net of accumulated amortization of $2.8 million and was recorded as a reduction to the principal amount of the long-term debt outstanding as presented on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and will be amortized as a component of interest expense over the term of the Third Amended Term Loan Facility. Financing costs of $0.6 million incurred in connection with the Third Amended Term Loan Facility were expensed in accordance with ASC 470 – Debt and are included in other expenses in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations at June 30, 2021. In accordance with ASU 2015-15 Interest—Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30) Presentation and Subsequent Measurement of Debt Issuance Costs Associated with Line of Credit Arrangements, deferred financing fees of $0.7 million, net of accumulated amortization of $2.6 million, are presented as a reduction to the Third Amended Term Loan Facility outstanding at June 30, 2021 as presented on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, and will be amortized as a component of interest expense over the term of the Third Amended Term Loan Facility. An additional $0.6 million of deferred costs incurred on the Revolving Facility, in connection with the Third Amended Term Loan Facility, was recorded to prepaid and other current assets and other non-current assets in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and will be amortized on a straight-line basis through maturity on November 15, 2023. As of June 30, 2021, deferred costs for the Revolving Facility were $0.6 million, net of accumulated amortization of $0.1 million.

23

The carrying value of the long-term debt approximates fair value at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, and was derived from quoted market prices by independent dealers (Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy under ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures). The following are the maturities of our long-term debt as of June 30, 2021 (amounts in thousands):

Year Ending December 31,	Amount
Remainder of 2021	$	1,358
2022		2,656
2023		2,656
2024		246,976
Total	$	253,646

Note 9. Derivative Instruments

We use derivative financial instruments in the management of our interest rate exposure. Our strategy is to eliminate the cash flow risk on a portion of the variable rate debt caused by changes in the designated benchmark interest rate, LIBOR. The Company does not enter into or hold derivative financial instruments for speculative trading purposes.

On May 4, 2017, we entered into two identical pay-fixed, receive-variable, interest rate swaps with two different counterparties, to hedge the variability in the LIBOR interest payments on an aggregate notional value of $100.0 million of our Senior Notes, through the expiration of the swaps on March 31, 2022. At inception, these interest rate swaps were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk, and as such, the unrealized changes in fair value are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”).

The change in the fair value of the interest rate swap agreements for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, resulted in an unrealized gain of $0.4 million and $0.1 million, respectively, and was included in AOCI net of taxes. The change in the fair value of the interest rate swap agreements for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, resulted in an unrealized gain of $0.9 million and an unrealized loss of $2.3 million, respectively, which were included in AOCI net of taxes. The Company paid $0.5 million and $0.4 million of net interest on the settlement of the interest rate swap agreements for each of the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The Company paid $0.9 million and $0.4 million of net interest on the settlement of the interest rate swap agreements for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. As of June 30, 2021, the Company estimates that none of the unrealized loss included in AOCI related to these interest rate swap agreements will be realized and reported in operations within the next twelve months. No gain or loss was recorded in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020.

The aggregate fair value of the interest rate swaps was $1.4 million and $2.2 million as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, and was recorded in other long-term liabilities on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

By entering into derivative instrument contracts, we are exposed to counterparty credit risk. Counterparty credit risk is the failure of the counterparty to perform under the terms of the derivative contract. When the fair value of a derivative contract is in an asset position, the counterparty has a liability to us, which creates credit risk for us. We attempt to minimize this risk by selecting counterparties with investment grade credit ratings and regularly monitoring our market position with each counterparty. Our derivative instruments do not contain any credit-risk related contingent features.

Note 10. Fair Value Measurements

Our derivatives are valued using a discounted cash flow analysis that incorporates observable market parameters, such as interest rate yield curves, classified as Level 2 within the valuation hierarchy. Derivative valuations incorporate credit risk adjustments that are necessary to reflect the probability of default by us or the counterparty.

24

The following table presents our assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and the levels of inputs used to measure fair value, which include derivatives designated as cash flow hedging instruments, as well as their location on our accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 (amounts in thousands):

		Estimated Fair Value
		June 30, 2021
Category	Balance Sheet Location	Level 1	Level 2		Level 3	Total
Cash flow hedges:
Interest rate swap	Other long-term liabilities	—	$	1,355	—	$	1,355

		Estimated Fair Value
		December 31, 2020
Category	Balance Sheet Location	Level 1	Level 2		Level 3	Total
Cash flow hedges:
Interest rate swap	Other long-term liabilities	—	$	2,231	—	$	2,231

Certain non-financial assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. These assets and liabilities are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to periodic impairment tests. These items primarily include long-lived assets, goodwill, other intangible assets, and equity method investments. On March 31, 2021, the Company acquired the remaining 75% equity interest in Pantaya. The Company accounted for the acquisition of the remaining 75% equity interest of Pantaya as a step acquisition, which required remeasurement of the Company’s existing 25% equity interest to fair value prior to completing the acquisition method of accounting. The Company utilized a market-based valuation approach to determine the fair value of the existing equity interest by adjusting for a control premium, which was based on comparable market transactions. As a result, the Company increased the value of its existing equity interest to its fair value resulting in the recognition of a non-cash gain of $30.1 million, which was included in (loss) gain on equity method investment activity in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the six months ended June 30, 2021. For more information, see Note 3, “Business Combination” of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. There were no other changes to the fair value of non-financial assets and liabilities measured on a nonrecurring basis.

The carrying amounts of cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value because of the short maturity of these items. The carrying value of the long-term debt approximates fair value because this instrument bears interest at a variable rate, is pre-payable, and is at terms currently available to the Company.

Note 11. Stockholders’ Equity

Capital stock

As of June 30, 2021, the Company had 20,484,602 shares of Class A common stock, and 19,720,381 shares of Class B common stock, issued and outstanding.

On November 18, 2020, the Company announced that its Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $20.0 million of the Company’s Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class A common stock”). Under the Company’s stock repurchase program, management is authorized to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock from time to time through open market purchases at prevailing prices, subject to stock price, business and market conditions and other factors. The expiration date for the repurchase plan is November 19, 2021. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company repurchased 127,458 shares of Class A common stock under the repurchase program for an aggregate purchase price of $1.3 million. As of June 30, 2021, the Company repurchased 0.2 million shares of Class A common stock under the repurchase program for an aggregate purchase price of $1.7 million, and the repurchased shares were recorded as treasury stock on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of June 30, 2021, the Company had $18.3 million remaining for future repurchases under the existing stock repurchase program.

Equity incentive plans

Effective May 25, 2021, the stockholders of all classes of capital stock of the Company approved at the annual stockholder meeting the Hemisphere Media Group, Inc. Amended and Restated 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Equity Incentive Plan”) to increase the number of shares of Class A common stock that may be delivered under the Equity Incentive Plan to an aggregate of 10.2 million shares of our Class A common stock. At June 30, 2021, 3.2 million shares remained available for issuance of stock options or other stock-based awards under our Equity Incentive Plan (including shares of restricted Class A common stock surrendered to the Company in payment of taxes required to be withheld in respect of vested shares of restricted Class A common stock, which are available for re-issuance). The expiration date of the Equity Incentive Plan, on and after which date no awards may be granted, is April 4, 2023. The Company’s Board of Directors, or a committee thereof, administers the Equity Incentive Plan and has the sole and plenary authority to, among other things: (i) designate participants; (ii) determine the type, size, and terms and conditions of awards to be granted; and (iii) determine the method by which an award may be settled, exercised, canceled, forfeited or suspended.

The Company’s time-based restricted stock awards and option awards generally vest in three equal annual installments beginning on the first anniversary of the grant date, subject to the grantee’s continued employment or service with the Company. The Company’s performance-based option awards vest based on the achievement of certain non-market-based performance metrics of the Company, subject to the grantee’s continued employment or service with the Company. The event-based restricted stock awards granted to certain members of our Board vest on the day preceding the Company’s annual stockholder meeting.

Stock-based compensation

Stock-based compensation expense related to stock options and restricted stock was $1.5 million and $1.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and $2.8 million and $2.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. As of June 30, 2021, there was $3.9 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested stock options, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.0 years. As of June 30, 2021, there was $5.0 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested restricted stock, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.8 years.

Stock options

The fair value of stock options granted is estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes pricing model for time-based options and performance-based options, and the Monte Carlo simulation model for event-based options. The expected term of options granted is derived using the simplified method under ASC 718-10-S99-1/SEC Topic 14.D for “plain vanilla” options and the Monte Carlo simulation for event-based options. Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s competitors given its lack of trading history. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield for a period consistent with the expected term of the option in effect at the time of the grant. The Company has estimated forfeitures of 1.5%, as the awards are granted to management for which the Company expects lower turnover, and has assumed no dividend yield, as dividends have never been paid to stock or option holders and will not be paid for the foreseeable future.

	Six Months Ended		Year Ended

Note 12. Contingencies

We are involved in various legal actions, generally related to our operations. Management believes, based on advice from legal counsel, that the outcomes of such legal actions will not adversely affect our financial condition.

Note 13. Leases

The Company is a lessee under leases for land, office space and equipment with third parties, all of which are accounted for as operating leases. These leases generally have an initial term of one to seven years and provide for fixed monthly payments. Some of these leases provide for future rent escalations and renewal options and certain leases also obligate us to pay the cost of maintenance, insurance and property taxes. Total lease cost was $0.3 million and $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and $0.5 million and $0.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Leases with a term of one year or less are classified as short-term and are not recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

OVERVIEW

Our Company

We are a leading U.S. Spanish-language media company serving the fast growing and highly attractive U.S. Hispanic and Latin American markets with streaming, broadcast and cable television platforms including five Spanish-language cable television networks distributed in the U.S., two Spanish-language cable television networks distributed in Latin America, the #1-rated broadcast television network in Puerto Rico, the leading Spanish-language subscription streaming service in the U.S., a leading distributor of content to television and digital media platforms in Latin America, and have an ownership interest in a leading broadcast television network in Colombia.

Headquartered in Miami, Florida, our portfolio consists of the following:

● Cinelatino: the leading Spanish-language cable movie network with approximately 3.6 million⁽¹⁾ subscribers in the U.S. and 14.0 million⁽¹⁾ subscribers across Latin America and Canada.

Driven by the strength of its programming and distribution, Cinelatino is the highest rated Spanish-language original movie network in the U.S.

● WAPA: the leading broadcast television network and television content producer in Puerto Rico. WAPA has been the #1-rated broadcast television network in Puerto Rico since the start of Nielsen audience measurement eleven years ago. WAPA is Puerto Rico’s news leader and the largest local producer of news and entertainment programming, producing over 67 hours in the aggregate each week. Additionally, we operate WAPA.TV, a leading news and entertainment website in Puerto Rico, as well as mobile apps, featuring content produced by WAPA.

● WAPA Deportes: through its multicast signal, WAPA distributes WAPA Deportes, a leading sports television network in Puerto Rico, featuring MLB, NBA and professional sporting events from Puerto Rico.

● WAPA America: a cable television network serving primarily Puerto Ricans and other Caribbean Hispanics living in the U.S. WAPA America’s programming features news and entertainment programming produced by WAPA. WAPA America is distributed in the U.S. to over 3.4 million⁽¹⁾ subscribers, excluding digital basic subscribers.

● Pasiones: a cable television network dedicated to showcasing the most popular telenovelas and serialized dramas, distributed in the U.S. and Latin America. Pasiones features top-rated telenovelas from Latin America, Turkey, India, and South Korea (dubbed into Spanish), and is currently the highest rated telenovela cable television network in primetime. Pasiones has approximately 3.9 million⁽¹⁾ subscribers in the U.S. and 15.5 million⁽¹⁾ subscribers in Latin America.

● Pantaya: the first ever premium subscription streaming service of Spanish-language offering the largest selection of current and classic, commercial free blockbusters and critically acclaimed movies and series from Latin America and the U.S. including original productions from Pantaya’s production arm, Pantelion, and titles from our library, as well as titles from third party providers such as Lionsgate and Grupo Televisa. The Company formed Pantaya in partnership with Lionsgate and launched the service in August 2017. On March 31, 2021, the Company acquired the remaining 75% equity interest from Lionsgate, and is now a consolidated subsidiary of the Company effective as of the Acquisition Date. As of June 30, 2021, Pantaya had nearly 1.0 million subscribers.

● Snap Media: a distributor of content to broadcast and cable television networks and OTT, SVOD and AVOD platforms in Latin America. On November 26, 2018, we acquired a 75% interest in Snap Media, and in connection with the acquisition, Snap Media entered into a joint venture with MarVista, an independent entertainment studio and a shareholder of Snap Media, to produce original movies and series. Snap Media is responsible for the distribution of content owned and/or controlled by our Networks, as well as content to be produced by the production joint venture between Snap Media and MarVista.

● Canal 1: the #3-rated broadcast television network in Colombia. We own a 40% interest in Canal 1 in partnership with leading producers of news and entertainment content in Colombia. The partnership was awarded a 10-year renewable broadcast television concession in 2016. The partnership began operating Canal 1 on May 1, 2017 and launched a new programming lineup on August 14, 2017. In July 2019, the Colombian government enacted legislation resulting in the extension of the concession license for an additional ten years for no additional consideration. The concession is now due to expire on April 30, 2037 and is renewable for an additional 20-year period.

● REMEZCLA: a digital media company targeting English speaking and bilingual U.S. Hispanic millennials through innovative content. On April 28, 2017, we acquired a 25.5% interest in REMEZCLA.

⁽¹⁾ Subscriber amounts are based on most recent remittances received from our Distributors as of the period end date, which are typically two months prior to the period end date.

Our two primary sources of revenues are advertising revenue and subscriber revenue. All of our Networks derive revenues from advertising. Advertising revenue is generated from the sale of advertising time, which is typically sold pursuant to advertising orders with advertisers providing for an agreed upon advertising commitment and price per spot. Our advertising revenue is tied to the success of our programming, including the popularity of our programming with our target audience. Our advertising is variable in nature and tends to reflect seasonal patterns of our advertisers’ demand, which is generally greatest during the fourth quarter of each year, driven by the holiday buying season. In addition, Puerto Rico’s political election cycle occurs every four years and we benefit from increased advertising sales in an election year. For example, in 2020, we experienced higher advertising sales as a result of political advertising spending during the 2020 gubernatorial elections. The next election in Puerto Rico will be in 2024.

31

All of our Networks receive fees paid by distributors, including cable, satellite and telecommunications service providers. These revenues are generally based on a per subscriber fee pursuant to multi-year contracts, commonly referred to as “affiliation agreements,” which typically provide for annual rate increases. The specific subscriber revenue we earn varies from period to period, distributor to distributor and also varies among our Networks, but is generally based upon the number of each distributor’s paying subscribers who receive our Networks. The terms of certain non-U.S. affiliation agreements provide for payment of a fixed contractual monthly fee. Changes in subscriber revenue are primarily derived from changes in contractual affiliation rates charged for our Networks and changes in the number of subscribers. Accordingly, we continually review the quality of our programming to ensure that it is maximizing our Networks’ viewership and giving our Networks’ subscribers a premium, high-value experience. The growth in our subscriber revenue will, to a certain extent, be dependent on the growth in subscribers of the cable, satellite and telecommunication service providers distributing our Networks, new system launches and continued carriage of our channels by our distribution partners. Additionally, our revenues benefit from contractual rate increases stipulated in most of our affiliation agreements. We also generate subscriber revenue from monthly subscriptions to Pantaya, our subscription video on demand (“SVOD”) service. The SVOD service is available directly to consumers through our web application as well as through distribution partners. Certain distribution partners charge a fee, which is recorded in cost of revenues. Subscribers are billed at the start of their monthly or annual membership and revenue is recognized ratably over each applicable membership period. Subscriber revenue varies from period to period and is generally based upon the number of paying subscribers to our SVOD service. Estimates of revenue generated but not yet reported by the Company’s third party distributors are made based on the estimated number of subscribers using recent reporting.

WAPA has been the #1-rated broadcast television network in Puerto Rico since the start of Nielsen audience measurement eleven years ago and management believes it is highly valued by its viewers and cable, satellite and telecommunications service providers. WAPA is distributed by all pay-TV distributors in Puerto Rico and has been successfully growing subscriber revenue. WAPA’s primetime household rating in 2020 was nearly five times higher than the most highly rated English-language U.S. broadcast network in the U.S., CBS, and higher than the combined ratings of CBS, NBC, ABC, FOX and the CW. As a result of its ratings success since the start of Nielsen audience measurement, management believes WAPA is well positioned for future growth in subscriber revenue.

WAPA America, Cinelatino, Pasiones, Centroamerica TV and Television Dominicana occupy a valuable and unique position, as they are among the small group of Hispanic cable networks to have achieved broad distribution in the U.S. As a result, management believes our U.S. cable networks are well-positioned to benefit from growth in both the growing national advertising spend targeted at the highly sought-after U.S. Hispanic audience, and growth in the U.S. Hispanic population, which is expected to continue its long-term upward trajectory.

Hispanics represent over 18% of the total U.S. population and 11% of the total U.S. buying power, but the aggregate media spend targeted at U.S. Hispanics significantly under-indexes both of these metrics. As a result, advertisers have been allocating a higher proportion of marketing dollars to the Hispanic market, but U.S. Hispanic cable advertising still under-indexes relative to its consumption.

Management expects Pantaya and our U.S. television networks to benefit from growth in the U.S. Hispanic population, as it continues its long-term growth. The U.S. Census Bureau estimated that nearly 60.5 million Hispanics resided in the United States in 2019, representing an increase of more than 25 million people between 2000 and 2019, and that number is projected to grow to 75 million by 2030. U.S. Hispanic television households grew by 36% during the period from 2010 to 2021, from 12.9 million households to 17.6 million households.

Similarly, management expects Cinelatino and Pasiones to benefit from growth in Latin America. Pay-TV subscribers in Latin America (excluding Brazil) are projected to grow from 55 million in 2020 to 60 million by 2025. Furthermore, as of December 31, 2020, Cinelatino and Pasiones were each distributed to only 26% of total pay-TV subscribers throughout Latin America (excluding Brazil).

Colombia, where we own 40% of Canal 1, the #3-rated broadcast television network, is a large and attractive market for broadcast television. Colombia had a population of 51 million as of December 31, 2020, the second largest in Latin America (excluding Brazil). According to IBOPE, the three major broadcast networks in Colombia receive a 59% share of overall television

32

viewing. These factors resulted in an annual market for free-to-air television advertising of approximately $207 million for 2020 (as converted utilizing the average foreign exchange rate during the period).

MVS, one of our stockholders, provides operational, technical and distribution services to Cinelatino pursuant to several agreements, including an agreement pursuant to which MVS provides satellite and technical support and other administrative support services, an agreement that grants MVS the non-exclusive right to distribute the Cinelatino service to third party distributors in Mexico, and an agreement between Cinelatino and Dish Mexico (an affiliate of MVS), pursuant to which Dish Mexico distributes Cinelatino and pays subscriber fees to Cinelatino.

COVID-19 Pandemic

In March 2020, the World Health Organization characterized the coronavirus (“COVID-19”) as a pandemic, and the President of the United States declared the COVID-19 outbreak a national emergency. The rapid spread of COVID-19 and the continuously evolving responses to combat it have had a negative impact on the global economy. Even during these unprecedented times, we have continued the production of news and entertainment programming, as our viewers rely on our Networks to keep them informed.

The impact of COVID-19 and measures to prevent its spread have continued to affect our businesses in a number of ways. Beginning in March 2020, the Company experienced adverse advertising revenue impacts. Operationally, most non-production and programming personnel are working remotely, and the Company has restricted business travel. The Company has managed the remote workforce transition effectively and there have been no material adverse impacts on operations through June 30, 2021. While the Company’s advertising revenue improved in second half of 2020 and continued into the first half of 2021, the Company is unable to reasonably predict the impact that a significant change in circumstances, including the ability of our workforce and/or key personnel to work effectively because of illness, government actions or other restrictions in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic, may have on our businesses in the future. The nature and full extent of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our future operations will depend on numerous factors, all of which are highly uncertain and cannot be reasonably predicted. These factors include the length and severity of the outbreak, including the extent of surges in positive cases related to variants of COVID-19 , such as the Delta variant, as well as the availability and efficacy of vaccines and treatments for the disease and whether individuals choose to vaccinate themselves, the responses of private sector businesses and governments, including the timing and amount of government stimulus, the impact on economic activity and the impact on our customers, employees and suppliers.

The Company has evaluated and continues to evaluate the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, including the impairment of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets and the fair value of equity method investments. The ultimate impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, including the extent of any adverse impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition, remains uncertain. The Company believes it has substantial liquidity to satisfy its financial commitments.

Given the global nature of the COVID-19 pandemic, our investment in Canal 1, which operates in Colombia, is also negatively impacted. Colombia’s President Ivan Duque declared a state of emergency, locking down the country on March 20, 2020. Since then, the restrictions on business and other activities have been lifted gradually but have never been totally eliminated, and the state of emergency declaration has been extended to November 25, 2021. Currently, restrictions remain, including limiting operating capacity of the airline industry, restaurants, and hotels to a maximum of 30%, while movie theaters are partially open, other entertainment venues remain closed, and most government discretionary spending continues to be frozen. All of these circumstances have had a material adverse impact on advertising spending, and accordingly, have had a material adverse impact on Canal 1’s advertising revenue. It remains unclear when advertising will return to pre-COVID-19 levels. In May 2021, the third wave of the pandemic hit the country severely. As of July 20, 2021, 31 million vaccine dozes have arrived, and only 31% of the population target have received the full vaccination cycle.

Net Revenues

Net revenues were $50.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, an increase of $15.7 million, or 45%, as compared to $34.7 million for the comparable period in 2020, due to increases in both subscriber revenue and advertising revenue. Subscriber revenue increased $12.9 million, or 67%, primarily due to the inclusion of Pantaya, which the Company acquired on March 31, 2021, as well as, contractual rate increases and new launches of our television Networks, offset in part by a decline in U.S. cable subscribers. Advertising revenue increased $4.9 million, or 40%, primarily due to growth in the Puerto Rico television advertising market, coupled with an increase in WAPA’s share of the market, as well as an increase in advertising revenue at our Cable Networks. Other revenue decreased $2.1 million, or 69%, driven primarily by the timing of the licensing of content.

Net revenues were $88.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, an increase of $20.9 million, or 31%, as compared to $67.1 million for the comparable period in 2020, due to increases in both subscriber revenue and advertising revenue. Subscriber revenue increased $13.1 million, or 33%, primarily due to the inclusion of Pantaya, which the Company acquired on March 31, 2021, as well as, contractual rate increases and new launches of our television Networks, offset in part by a decline in U.S. cable subscribers. Advertising revenue increased $9.0 million, or 37%, primarily due to growth in the Puerto Rico television advertising market, coupled with an increase in WAPA’s share of the market, as well as an increase in advertising revenue at our Cable Networks. Other revenue decreased $1.1 million, or 30%, driven primarily by the timing of the licensing of content.

34

Operating Expenses

Cost of Revenues: Cost of revenues consists primarily of programming and production costs, programming amortization, participation and residual costs, streaming delivery costs and distribution fees. Cost of revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2021, were $14.8 million, an increase of $2.2 million, or 18%, compared to $12.6 million for the comparable period in 2020. Cost of revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2021, were $26.6 million, an increase of $3.1 million, or 13%, compared to $23.5 million for the comparable period in 2020. These increases were due to the inclusion of Pantaya, primarily content and streaming delivery costs and distribution expenses. Additionally, programming and production costs increased due to the postponement or cancelation of certain programming and sporting events in the prior year periods due to the pandemic.

Selling, General and Administrative: Selling, general and administrative expenses consist principally of marketing and research, stock-based compensation, employee costs, occupancy costs and other general administrative costs. Selling, general, and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2021, were $24.9 million, an increase of $14.7 million compared to $10.2 million for the comparable period in 2020. Selling, general, and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2021, were $36.3 million, an increase of $14.9 million, or 69%, compared to $21.4 million for the comparable period in 2020. These increases were due to the inclusion of Pantaya, primarily marketing and personnel expenses, as well as higher advertising sales commissions due to higher advertising revenue, and higher stock-based compensation. The increases were also due to cost reductions implemented in the prior year periods in response to the pandemic that we did not have in the current year periods including voluntary salary reductions and employee retention credits.

Depreciation and Amortization: Depreciation and amortization expense consists of depreciation of fixed assets and amortization of intangibles. Depreciation and amortization for the three months ended June 30, 2021, was $4.3 million, an increase of $1.5 million, or 55%, compared to $2.8 million for the comparable period in 2020. Depreciation and amortization for the six months ended June 30, 2021, was $7.0 million, an increase of $1.1 million, or 18%, compared to $5.9 million for the comparable period in 2020. These increases were due to the amortization of intangible assets recognized as part of the Pantaya Acquisition, offset in part by the amortization of certain intangible assets that were fully amortized in during the prior year.

Other Expenses: Other expenses include legal, financial advisory and other fees incurred in connection with acquisitions and corporate finance activities, including debt and equity financings. Other expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2021, were $1.4 million, an increase of $1.4 million, compared to $0.0 million in the comparable period in 2020, due to expenses incurred in connection with the Pantaya Acquisition. Other expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2021, were $8.1 million, an increase of $5.1 million, compared to $3.0 million in the comparable period in 2020, due to expenses incurred in connection with the Pantaya Acquisition and the incremental borrowing on our Third Amended Term Loan Facility.

(Gain) Loss from FCC repack and other: (Gain) loss from FCC spectrum repack and other primarily reflects reimbursements we have received from the FCC for equipment we have purchased as a result of the FCC mandated spectrum repack, and gain or loss from the sale of assets no longer utilized in the operations of the business. Gain from FCC spectrum repack and other for the three months ended June 30, 2021, was $2.1 million as compared to a loss of $0.2 million in the comparable period of 2020. Gain from FCC spectrum repack and other for the six months ended June 30, 2021, was $2.2 million as compared to a loss of $0.2 million in the comparable period of 2020. These increases were due to reimbursements received from the FCC for equipment purchases required as a result of the FCC mandated spectrum repack and the disposal of assets no longer utilized in the operations of the business during the prior year period.

Other Expenses

Interest Expense and other, net: Interest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, increased $0.7 million, or 27% and $0.2 million, or 5%, respectively. These increases were due to incremental borrowing on our Third Amended Term Loan Facility and the unfavorable impact from our swaps, offset in part by lower average interest rates due to the decline in LIBOR.

35

(Loss) Gain on Equity Method Investment Activity: Loss on equity method investment activity for the three months ended June 30, 2021, was $8.6 million, a decrease of $1.6 million compared to $10.2 million for the comparable period in 2020, due to lower losses at Canal 1 as a result of the favorable impact of unrealized foreign currency gains on U.S. dollar denominated obligations and improved operating results. Gain on equity method investment activity for the six months ended June 30, 2021, was $24.0 million, as compared to a loss of $17.2 million for the comparable period in 2020, primarily due to a $30.1 million one-time non-cash gain recognized on the existing 25% equity interest in Pantaya upon the step acquisition of the remaining 75% equity interest on March 31, 2021. The improvement was also due to lower losses at Canal 1 due to a non-recurring non-cash charge in the prior year period, the favorable impact of unrealized foreign currency gains on U.S. dollar denominated obligations and improved operating results. For more information, see Note 3, “Business Combination” of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.

Impairment of Equity Method Investment: As of March 31, 2020, we deemed our investment in REMEZCLA to be impaired given the uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and the associated going-concern risks. As a result, we recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $5.5 million reflecting the write-off of the full valuation of our investment in REMEZCLA. For more information, see Note 6, “Equity Method Investments” of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.

Other expense, net: Other expense, net for the six months ended June 30, 2021, was $0.7 million due to the write-off of the net book value of programming rights at the Company for content licensed from Pantaya prior to the Acquisition Date.

Income Tax Expense

Income tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2021, was $1.8 million as compared to $2.9 million for the comparable period in 2020, due to lower taxable income in the current year period. Income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2021, was $3.1 million as compared to income tax expense of $1.2 million for the comparable period in 2020, due to higher taxable income in the current year period. For more information, see Note 7, “Income Taxes” of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.

Net (Loss) Income

Net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2021, was $6.3 million as compared to $6.6 million for the comparable period in 2020. Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2021, was $27.0 million as compared to net loss of $16.1 million for the comparable period in 2020, as the current year period benefitted from a one-time non-cash gain of $30.1 million recognized on the existing 25% equity interest in Pantaya upon the step acquisition of the remaining 75% equity interest.

Net Loss (Income) Attributable to Non-controlling Interest

Net loss attributable to non-controlling interest, related to the 25% interest in Snap Media held by minority shareholders, for the three months ended June 30, 2021, was $0.1 million as compared to net income attributable to non-controlling interest of $0.1 million for the comparable period in 2020.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Sources and Uses of Cash

Our principal sources of cash are cash on hand and cash flows from operating activities. At June 30, 2021, we had $72.4 million of cash on hand and $30.0 million undrawn and available under our Revolving Facility. Our primary uses of cash include the production and acquisition of programming, operational costs, personnel costs, equipment purchases, principal and interest payments on our outstanding debt and income tax payments, and cash may be used to fund investments, acquisitions and repurchases of common stock.

Cash Flows

	Six Months Ended June 30,
Amounts in thousands:	2021		2020
Cash provided by (used in):
Operating activities	$	19,899	$	21,434
Investing activities		(124,859)		(7,024)
Financing activities		42,928		(1,578)
Net (decrease) increase in cash	$	(62,032)	$	12,832

Comparison for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020

Operating Activities

Cash provided by operating activities was primarily driven by our net income or loss, adjusted for non-cash items and changes in working capital. Non-cash items consist primarily of depreciation of property and equipment, amortization of intangibles, programming amortization, amortization of deferred financing costs, stock-based compensation expense, gain or loss on equity method investment activity, impairment of equity method investments, amortization of operating lease right-of-use assets, provision for bad debts, and other non-cash acquisition charges.

Net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was $19.9 million, a decrease of $1.5 million, as compared to $21.4 million in the prior year period, due to a decrease in non-cash items of $48.6 million, offset in part by an improvement in net income of $43.2 million and an increase in net working capital of $3.9 million. The decrease in non-cash items is due to a $41.2 million improvement in gain on equity method investment activity primarily due to a $30.1 million one-time gain recognized on the existing 25% equity interest in Pantaya upon the step acquisition of the remaining 75% equity interest, a $5.5 million impairment of equity method investment related to REMEZCLA in the prior year period, an increase in gain from FCC spectrum repack and other of $2.3 million, and decreases in programming amortization of $1.4 million and provision for bad debt of $0.9 million, offset in part by an increase in depreciation and amortization of $1.1 million, and other non-cash acquisition related charges of $1.3 million. The increase in net working capital is due to a decrease in accounts receivable of $4.2 million and increases in other accrued expenses of $7.2 million, accounts payable of $6.0 million, income taxes payable of $2.6 million and other liabilities of $0.5 million, offset in part by a decrease in programming rights payable of $6.4 million and increases in programming rights of $6.2 million, prepaids and other assets of $3.5 million, and due to/from related parties of $0.4 million.

For more information, see Note 6, “Equity Method Investments” of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.

37

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2021, was $124.9 million, an increase of $117.8 million as compared to $7.0 million in the prior year period. The increase was primarily due to the net cash paid for the Pantaya Acquisition of $122.6 million and an increase in capital expenditures of $2.2 million, offset in part by a decline in funding of equity investments of $4.9 million and increased proceeds received from the FCC related to the spectrum repack of $2.1 million.

Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2021, was $42.9 million, an increase of $44.5 million as compared to net cash used of $1.6 million in the prior year period. The increase is due to net proceeds of $47.4 million received from incremental borrowing under our Third Amended Term Loan Facility in connection with the Pantaya Acquisition, offset in part by an increase in repurchases of our Class A common stock of $2.8 million.

For more information, see Note 8, “Long-Term Debt” of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Not applicable.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated our disclosure controls and procedures, as of June 30, 2021. Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2021, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that all information required to be disclosed is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified, and that information required to be filed in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs.

Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error and mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people or by management override of controls.

The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, a control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or because the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and may not be detected.

38

Changes in Internal Controls

There were no changes to the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f)) during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

From time to time, we or our subsidiaries may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings which arise in the ordinary course of business. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties and determination as to the amount of the accrual required for such contingencies is highly subjective and requires judgments about future events. An adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm our Business. Neither we nor any of our subsidiaries are presently a party to any material litigation, nor to the knowledge of management is any litigation threatened against us or our subsidiaries, which may materially affect us.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

You should carefully consider the risk factors included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, in addition to other information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including under the section entitled, “Forward-Looking Statements,” and in other documents we file with the SEC, in evaluating our Company and our Business. If any of the risks occur, our Business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations could be materially adversely affected. We caution the reader that these risk factors may not be exhaustive. We operate in a continually changing business environment and new risks emerge from time to time. Management cannot predict such new risk factors, nor can we assess the impact, if any, of such new risk factors on our Business or the extent to which any factor or combination of factors may impact our Business. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our Business, financial condition and/or operating results.

There have not been any material changes during the quarter ended June 30, 2021 from the risk factors disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, as updated in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2021; provided, however, certain risks applicable to our Networks or our Business disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, may also be applicable to Pantaya effective as of the Acquisition Date, unless the context requires otherwise.

Nature of Business

Note 1. Nature of Business

Nature of business: The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Hemisphere Media Group, Inc. (“Hemisphere” or the “Company”), the parent holding company of Cine Latino, Inc. (“Cinelatino”), WAPA Holdings, LLC (formerly known as InterMedia Español Holdings, LLC) (“WAPA Holdings”), HMTV Cable, Inc. (“HMTV Cable”), the parent company of the entities for the acquired networks consisting of Pasiones, TV Dominicana, and Centroamerica TV, HMTV Distribution, LLC (“HMTV Distribution”), the parent of Snap Global, LLC, and its wholly owned subsidiaries (“Snap Media”), which we acquired a 75% interest on November 26, 2018, and HMTV DTC, LLC (“HMTV DTC”), the parent company of Pantaya, LLC, and its subsidiaries (“Pantaya”), including a joint venture, ASG Latin, LLC, which we acquired on March 31, 2021 (see below). Hemisphere was formed on January 16, 2013 for purposes of effecting its initial public offering, which was consummated on April 4, 2013. In these notes, the terms “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our” mean Hemisphere and all subsidiaries included in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Prior to March 31, 2021, the Company owned a 25% equity interest in Pantaya, which was accounted for as an equity method investment. On March 31, 2021, the Company acquired the remaining 75% equity interest in Pantaya (the “Pantaya Acquisition”), for a cash purchase price of $123.6 million. As a result of the acquisition, Pantaya is now a wholly owned consolidated subsidiary. For more information, see Note 3, “Business Combination” of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Reclassification: Certain prior year amounts on the presented Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation.

Basis of presentation: The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for Hemisphere and its subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations, although we believe that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading. In our opinion, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair statement have been included. Our financial condition as of, and operating results, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the financial condition or results that may be expected for any future interim period or for the year ending December 31, 2021. These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Net (loss) income per common share: Basic (loss) income per share is computed by dividing loss attributable to Hemisphere Media Group, Inc. common stockholders by the number of weighted-average outstanding shares of common stock. Diluted (loss) income per share reflects the effect of the assumed exercise of stock options and vesting of restricted shares only in the periods in which such effect would have been dilutive.

The following table sets forth the computation of the common shares outstanding used in determining basic and diluted (loss) income per share attributable to Hemisphere Media Group, Inc. (amounts in thousands, except per share amounts):

	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2021		2020		2021		2020
Numerator for (loss) income per common share calculation:
Net (loss) income attributable to Hemisphere Media Group, Inc.	$	(6,286)	$	(6,682)	$	27,072	$	(16,110)
Denominator for (loss) income per common share calculation:
Weighted-average common shares, basic		39,641		39,444		39,511		39,378
Effect of dilutive securities
Stock options and restricted stock		—		—		389		—
Weighted-average common shares, diluted		39,641		39,444		39,900		39,378
(Loss) income per share attributable to Hemisphere Media Group, Inc.
Basic	$	(0.16)	$	(0.17)	$	0.69	$	(0.41)
Diluted	$	(0.16)	$	(0.17)	$	0.68	$	(0.41)

We apply the treasury stock method to measure the dilutive effect of our outstanding stock options and restricted stock awards and include the respective common share equivalents in the denominator of our diluted (loss) income per common share calculation. Per the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 260, under the treasury stock method, the incremental shares (difference between the number of shares assumed issued and the number of shares assumed purchased) shall be included in the denominator of the diluted (loss) income per share computation (ASC 260-10-45-23). The assumed exercise only occurs when the options are “In the Money” (exercise price is lower than the average market price for the period). If the options are “Out of the Money” (exercise price is higher than the average market price for the period), the exercise is not assumed since the result would be anti-dilutive. Potentially dilutive securities representing 1.6 million and 3.9 million shares of common stock for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, were excluded from the computation of diluted loss per common share for these periods because their effect would have been anti-dilutive. Potentially dilutive securities representing 2.1 million and 2.8 million shares of common stock for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, were excluded from the computation of diluted (loss) income per common share for these periods because their effects would have been anti-dilutive. The net (loss) income per share attributable to Hemisphere Media Group, Inc. amounts are the same for our Class A and Class B common stock because the holders of each class are legally entitled to equal per share distributions whether through dividends or in liquidation.

As a result of the loss from operations for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, 0.4 million and 0.0 million, respectively, outstanding awards were excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share because their effect was anti-dilutive. As a result of the loss from operations for the six months ended June 30, 2020, 0.3 million outstanding awards were excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share because their effect was anti-dilutive.

Risks and uncertainties: In March 2020, the World Health Organization characterized the coronavirus (“COVID-19”) as a pandemic, and the President of the United States declared the COVID-19 outbreak a national emergency. The rapid spread of COVID-19 and the continuously evolving responses to combat it have had a negative impact on the global economy. Even during these unprecedented times, we have continued the production of news and entertainment programming, as our viewers rely on our Networks to keep them informed.

The impact of COVID-19 and measures to prevent its spread have continued to affect our businesses in a number of ways. Beginning in March 2020, the Company experienced adverse advertising revenue impacts. Operationally, most non-production and programming personnel are working remotely, and the Company has restricted business travel. The Company has managed the remote workforce transition effectively and there have been no material adverse impacts on operations through June 30, 2021. While the Company’s advertising revenue improved in second half of 2020 and continued into the first half of 2021, the Company is unable to reasonably predict the impact that a significant change in circumstances, including the ability of our workforce and/or key personnel to work effectively because of illness, government actions or other restrictions in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic, may have on our businesses in the future. The nature and full extent of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our future operations will depend on numerous factors, all of which are highly uncertain and cannot be reasonably predicted. These factors include the length and severity of the outbreak, including the extent of surges in positive cases related to variants of COVID-19, such as the Delta variant, as well as the availability and efficacy of vaccines and treatments for the disease and whether individuals choose to vaccinate themselves, the responses of private sector businesses and governments, including the timing and amount of government stimulus, the impact on economic activity and the impact on our customers, employees and suppliers. For more information on the risks associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, see “Item 1A-Risk Factors” included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.

The Company has evaluated and continues to evaluate the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, including the impairment of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets and the fair value of equity method investments. The ultimate impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, including the extent of any adverse impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition, remains uncertain.

Use of estimates: In preparing these financial statements, management had to make estimates and assumptions that affected the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the balance sheet dates, and the reported revenues and expenses for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. Such estimates are based on historical experience and other assumptions that are considered appropriate in the circumstances. However, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Recently adopted Accounting Standards: On January 1, 2021, we adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“the FASB”) ASU 2019-12—Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. The updated guidance simplifies the accounting for income taxes in several areas by removing certain exceptions and by clarifying and amending existing guidance applicable to accounting for income taxes. The adoption of this ASU did not have an impact on our accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Accounting guidance not yet adopted: In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04-Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. The update provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP principles to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) or another reference rate expected to be discontinued due to reference rate reform. This guidance was effective beginning on March 12, 2020, and can be adopted on a prospective basis no later than December 31, 2022, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact, if any, that the updated accounting guidance will have on our accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Note 2. Revenue Recognition

The following is a description of principal activities from which we generate our revenue:

Subscriber revenue: We enter into arrangements with multi-channel video distributors, such as cable, satellite and telecommunications companies (referred to as “MVPDs”) to provide a continuous feed of our Networks generally based on a per subscriber fee pursuant to multi-year contracts, referred to as “affiliation agreements”, which typically provide for annual rate increases. We have used the practical expedient related to the right to invoice and recognize revenue at the amount to which we have the right to invoice for services performed. The specific subscriber revenue we earn varies from period to period, distributor to distributor and also vary among our Networks, but are generally based upon the number of each distributor’s paying subscribers who subscribe to our Networks. Changes in subscriber revenue are primarily derived from changes in contractual per subscriber rates charged for our Networks and changes in the number of subscribers. MVPDs report their subscriber numbers to us generally on a two month lag. We record revenue based on estimates of the number of subscribers utilizing the most recently received remittance reporting of each MVPD, which is consistent with our past practice and industry practice. Revenue is recognized on a month by month basis when the performance obligations to provide service to the MVPDs is satisfied. Payment is typically received within sixty days of the remittance. We also generate subscriber revenue from monthly subscriptions to Pantaya, our subscription video on demand (“SVOD”) service. The SVOD service is available directly to consumers through our web application as well as through distribution partners. Certain distribution partners charge a fee, which is recorded in cost of revenues. Subscribers are billed at the start of their monthly or annual membership and revenue is recognized ratably over each applicable membership period. Subscriber revenue varies from period to period and is generally based upon the number of paying subscribers to our SVOD service. Estimates of revenue generated but not yet reported by the Company’s third party distributors are made based on the estimated number of subscribers using recent reporting.

Advertising revenue: Advertising revenue is generated from the sale of commercial time, which is typically sold pursuant to sale orders with advertisers providing for an agreed upon commitment and price per spot. We recognize revenue from the sale of advertising as performance obligations are satisfied upon airing of the advertising; therefore, revenue is recognized at a point in time when each advertising spot is transmitted. Agency fees are calculated based on a stated percentage applied to gross billing revenue for our advertising inventory and are reported as a reduction of advertising revenue. Payment is typically due and received within thirty days of the invoice date.

Other revenue: Other revenues are derived primarily through the licensing of content to third parties. We enter into agreements to license content and recognize revenue when the performance obligation is satisfied and control is transferred, which is generally upon delivery of the content.

The following table presents the revenues disaggregated by revenue source (amounts in thousands):

	Three months ended June 30,

Note 3. Business Combination

Prior to March 31, 2021, the Company owned a 25% equity interest in Pantaya, which was accounted for as an equity method investment. On March 31, 2021, the Company acquired the remaining 75% equity interest in Pantaya (the “Pantaya Acquisition”). As a result of the acquisition, Pantaya is now a wholly owned consolidated subsidiary. Pantaya is the leading U.S. Hispanic subscription streaming service offering the largest selection of current and classic, commercial free blockbusters and critically acclaimed movies and series from Latin America and the U.S. including original productions from Pantaya’s production arm, Pantelion, and titles from our library, as well as titles from third party providers such as Lionsgate and Grupo Televisa.

Total cash purchase price in connection with the Pantaya Acquisition was $123.6 million. Under the terms of the purchase agreement (“Securities Purchase Agreement”), control of Pantaya transferred to the Company on March 31, 2021 (“Acquisition Date”), with cash consideration transferred on April 1, 2021. Cash consideration was funded with a combination of cash on hand and an add-on to our Term Loan Facility. For more information, see Note 8, “Long-Term Debt” of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Pantaya Acquisition were $1.4 million and $8.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, consisting primarily of professional fees and certain non-cash charges, which are included in other expenses in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.

Prior to the closing of the Pantaya Acquisition, the Company accounted for the existing 25% equity interest in Pantaya using the equity method, and the net book value was $0 as of March 31, 2021. The Company accounted for the acquisition of the 75% equity interest of Pantaya as a step acquisition, which required remeasurement of the Company’s existing 25% ownership interest in Pantaya to fair value prior to completing the acquisition method of accounting. Using step acquisition accounting, the Company increased the value of its existing equity interest to its fair value resulting in the recognition of a non-cash gain of $30.1 million, which was included in gain (loss) on equity method investment activity in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the six months ended June 30, 2021. For more information, see Note 10, “Fair Value Measurements” of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

The Pantaya Acquisition was accounted for as a business combination by applying the acquisition method of accounting pursuant to ASC Topic 805, “Business Combinations”. Due to the timing of the Pantaya Acquisition, the amounts recorded for assets acquired, liabilities assumed, total consideration, and our existing 25% equity interest in Pantaya reflects preliminary fair value estimates based on management analysis, which the Company is still in the process of reviewing and finalizing. Until the Company finalizes the valuation process, there may be adjustments during the measurement period.

The following table summarizes the purchase price consideration in connection with the Pantaya Acquisition as of March 31, 2021 (amounts in thousands):

Total cash consideration	$	123,605
Class A common stock consideration(a)		2,188
Effective settlement of pre-existing receivables and payables, net(b)		1,499
Total consideration		127,292
Fair value of existing 25% equity interest		30,092
Total	$	157,384

(a)Calculated as 238,436 shares issued to certain employees, who held Pantaya stock-based compensation awards, multiplied by $11.65, which was the closing price of a share of the Company’s common stock on March 31, 2021, reduced by post-combination expense of approximately $0.6 million associated with the excess fair value over replacement awards.

(b)Effective settlement of pre-existing accounts receivable of $2.3 million for content licensed to Pantaya and programming rights payable of $0.8 million for content licensed from Pantaya prior to the Acquisition Date.

The following table summarizes the preliminary fair values of the assets acquired, liabilities assumed and resulting goodwill in the Pantaya Acquisition as of March 31, 2021 (amounts in thousands):

	March 31, 2021
Cash	$	985
Accounts receivable		5,203
Fixed assets		602
Finite-lived intangible assets – programming rights		30,767
Other assets		6,731
Accounts payable		(2,807)
Accrued expenses		(13,049)
Film obligations		(15,225)
Goodwill		144,177
Fair value of net assets acquired	$	157,384

The preliminary fair value of the accounts receivable is based on the net realizable value and no amounts are believed to be uncollectible.

The preliminary fair value of the finite-lived intangible assets, which consists of programming rights, is $30.8 million. This finite-lived intangible asset will be amortized on a straight-line basis over the weighted-average useful life of 4.6 years. The Company has not yet finalized the estimated fair values of the net assets acquired.

Goodwill of $144.2 million represents Company-specific operational synergies and the future growth opportunities of Pantaya’s subscription streaming service. The goodwill associated with the transaction is expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

Supplemental Pro Forma Information (Unaudited)

The following table sets forth the unaudited supplemental pro forma results of operations assuming that the Pantaya Acquisition occurred on January 1, 2020:

	Three months ended June 30,

Note 6. Equity Method Investments

The Company makes investments that support its underlying business strategy and enables it to enter new markets. The Company holds equity investments in Canal 1 and Snap JV (in each case, as defined and discussed below), which are variable interest entities (“VIEs”), for which the Company is not the primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary is the party involved with the VIE that (i) has the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance, and (ii) has the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The activities of each VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance are controlled by the VIE’s board of directors and the Company’s representation on the board of directors of each VIE is commensurate with its voting equity interest. As the Company does not hold a majority voting interest or disproportionate voting or other rights, it does not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of any of these VIEs.

On November 30, 2016, we, in partnership with Colombian content producers, Radio Television Interamericana S.A., Compania de Medios de Informacion S.A.S. and NTC Nacional de Television y Comunicaciones S.A., were awarded a ten (10) year renewable television broadcast concession license for Canal 1 in Colombia. The partnership began operating Canal 1 on May 1, 2017. On February 7, 2018, Colombian regulatory authorities approved an increase in our ownership in the joint venture from 20% to 40%. In July 2019, the Colombian government enacted legislation resulting in the extension of the concession license for Canal 1 for an additional ten years for no additional consideration. The concession is now due to expire on April 30, 2037 and is renewable for an additional 20-year period. The joint venture is deemed a VIE that is accounted for under the equity method. As of June 30, 2021, we have funded $121.1 million in capital contributions to Canal 1. The Canal 1 joint venture losses-to-date have exceeded the capital contributions of the common equity partners and in accordance with equity method accounting, losses in excess of the common equity have been recorded against the next layer of the capital structure, in this case, preferred equity. The Company is currently the sole preferred equity holder in Canal 1 and therefore, the Company has recorded nearly 100% of the losses of the joint venture. We record the income or loss on investment on a one quarter lag. For the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, we recorded $8.6 million and $10.2 million in loss on equity method investment in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, we recorded $6.0 million and $17.0 million in loss on equity method investment activity in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, respectively. The net balance recorded in equity method investments related to the Canal 1 joint venture was $25.4 million and $29.9 million as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, and is included in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we had a receivable balance from Canal 1 of $2.6 million, and is included in other assets in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

On April 28, 2017, we acquired a 25.5% interest in REMEZCLA, a digital media company targeting English speaking and bilingual U.S. Hispanic millennials through innovative content, for $5.0 million. At March 31, 2020, given the negative impacts caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and the associated liquidity and going-concern uncertainties related to REMEZCLA, the Company determined that the investment in REMEZCLA was other-than-temporarily impaired and recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $5.5 million reflecting the write-off of the full carrying amount of our investment. The write-off was recorded in impairment of equity method investment in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Due to the write-off of the investment carrying value, we did not record any share of the loss from the investment for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. The net balance recorded in equity method investments related to REMEZCLA was $0 million as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

On November 26, 2018, Snap Media acquired a 50% interest in Snap JV, LLC (“Snap JV”) (we own 75% of Snap Media), a newly formed joint venture with Mar Vista Entertainment, LLC (“MarVista”), to co-produce original movies and series. The investment is deemed a VIE that is accounted for under the equity method. As of June 30, 2021, we have funded $0.4 million into Snap JV. We record the income or loss on investment on a one quarter lag. For each of the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, we recorded $0 million in loss on equity method investments in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, we recorded $0 million and $0.2 million, respectively, in loss on equity method investments in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The net balance recorded in equity method investments related to Snap JV was $0.1 million as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, and is included in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

On March 31, 2021, the Company acquired the remaining 75% equity interest in Pantaya. As a result of the acquisition, Pantaya is now a wholly owned consolidated subsidiary, and as of April 1, 2021, is no longer treated as an equity method investment. For more information, see Note 3, “Business Combination” of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Income Taxes

Note 7. Income Taxes

The 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“Jobs Act”) was enacted on December 22, 2017. The Jobs Act revised the U.S. corporate income tax by lowering the statutory corporate tax rate from 35% to 21% in 2018. The Company generates income in higher tax rate foreign locations, which result in foreign tax credits. The lower federal corporate tax rate reduces the likelihood of our utilization of foreign tax credits created by income taxes paid in Puerto Rico and Latin America, resulting in a valuation allowance. Additionally, the Company evaluated the potential interest limitation established under the tax act and determined that no limitation would affect the 2021 provision for income taxes.

For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, our income tax expense has been computed utilizing an estimated annual effective tax rate of 46.7% and 35.7%, respectively. The difference between the annual effective rate of 46.7% and the statutory Federal income tax rate of 21% in the six month period ended June 30, 2021, is primarily due to the impact of the Tax Act, which impacted the valuation allowance on foreign tax credits, and limitations on the deductibility of executive compensation under Internal Revenue Code Section 162(m). The annual effective tax rate related to income generated in the U.S. is 31.8%. Due to the reduced U.S. tax rate, the Company determined that a portion of its foreign income, which is taxed at a higher rate, will result in the generation of excess foreign tax credits that will not be available to offset U.S. income tax. As a result, 14.9% of the annual effective rate relates to the required valuation allowance against the excess foreign tax credits, bringing the annual effective tax rate for the six month period ended June 30, 2021 to 46.7%. Additionally, the gain related to the step acquisition of Pantaya of $30.1 million was determined to be significant and infrequent, and as a result, this item has not been included in the annual effective tax rate.

The difference between the annual effective rate of 35.7% and the statutory Federal income tax rate of 21% in the six month period ended June 30, 2020, is primarily due to the impact of the Tax Act , which impacted the valuation allowance on foreign tax credits, and limitations on the deductibility of executive compensation under Internal Revenue Code Section 162(m). The annual effective tax rate related to income generated in the U.S. is 26.3%. Due to the reduced U.S. tax rate, the Company determined that a portion of its foreign income, which is taxed at a higher rate, will result in the generation of excess foreign tax credits that will not be available to offset U.S. income tax. As a result, 9.4% of the annual effective rate relates to the required valuation allowance against the excess foreign tax credits, bringing the annual effective tax rate for the six month period ended June 30, 2020 to 35.7%.

Income tax expense was $1.8 million and $2.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Income tax expense was $3.1 million and $1.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

On February 14, 2017, Hemisphere Media Holdings, LLC (“Holdings”) and InterMedia Español, Inc. (together with Holdings, the “Borrowers”), both wholly owned, indirect subsidiaries of the Company, amended the Term Loan Facility (the “Second Amended Term Loan Facility”). The Second Amended Term Loan Facility provides for a $213.3 million senior secured term loan B facility, and matures on February 14, 2024. The Second Amended Term Loan Facility bore interest at the Borrowers’ option of either (i) London Inter-bank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus a margin of 3.50% or (ii) an Alternate Base Rate (“ABR”) plus a margin of 2.50%.

On March 31, 2021 (the “Closing Date”), the Borrowers amended the Term Loan Facility, as previously amended (the “Third Amended Term Loan Facility”), for the borrowing of a new tranche of term loans in the aggregate principal amount of $50.0 million and matures on February 14, 2024. The Third Amended Term Loan Facility bears interest at the Borrowers’ option of either (i) LIBOR plus a margin of 3.50% or (ii) an ABR plus a margin of 2.50%. There is no LIBOR floor. The add-on to the term loan B facility was issued with 4.0% of original issue discount (“OID”).

Additionally, the Third Amended Term Loan Facility provides for a revolving loan (the “Revolving Facility”) allowing for an aggregate principal amount of up to $30.0 million. The Revolving Facility is secured on a pari passu basis by the collateral securing the Third Amended Term Loan Facility and will mature on November 15, 2023. The Revolving Facility will bear interest at the Borrowers’ option of either (i) LIBOR (which will not be less than zero) plus a margin of 2.75% or (ii) or an ABR plus a margin of 1.75%, in each case, with a 25 basis points (“bps”) step-up at a First Lien Net Leverage Ratio level of 3.50:1.00 and two 25 bps step-downs at a First Lien Net Leverage Ratio level of 2.50:1.00 and 1.50:1.00. The First Lien Net Leverage Ratio limits the amount of cash netted against debt to a maximum amount of $60.0 million. The Borrowers are also required to pay a quarterly commitment fee on the undrawn balance of the Revolving Facility at 37.5 bps per annum. As of June 30, 2021, the Revolving Facility was undrawn.

The Third Amended Term Loan Facility does not have any maintenance covenants. The Revolving Facility will have a springing First Lien Net Leverage Ratio of no greater than 5.00:1.00, tested commencing with the last day of the fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2021, and the last day of each fiscal quarter thereafter, solely to the extent that on such day, the aggregate amount of revolving loans and letter of credit exposure (excluding up to $5.0 million of undrawn letters of credit and cash collateralized or backstopped letters of credit) exceeds 35% of the aggregate commitments under the Revolving Facility.

The Third Amended Term Loan Facility requires the Borrowers to make amortization payments (in quarterly installments) equal to 1.00% per annum with respect to the Third Amended Term Loan Facility with any remaining amount due at final maturity. The Third Amended Term Loan Facility principal payments commenced on June 30, 2021, with a final installment due on February 14, 2024. Voluntary prepayments are permitted, in whole or in part, subject to certain minimum prepayment requirements.

Within 90 days after the end of each fiscal year, the Borrowers are required to make a prepayment of the loan principal in an amount equal to a percentage of the excess cash flow of the most recently completed fiscal year. Excess cash flow is generally defined as net income plus depreciation and amortization expense, less mandatory prepayments of the term loan, income taxes and capital expenditures, and adjusted for the change in working capital. The percentage of the excess cash flow used to determine the amount of the prepayment of the loan declines from 50% to 25%, and again to 0% at lower leverage ratios. Pursuant to the terms of the Second Amended Term Loan Facility, our Net Leverage Ratio was 2.3x at December 31, 2020, resulting in an excess cash flow percentage of 0% and therefore, no excess cash flow payment was due in March 2021.

In accordance with ASC 470 – Debt, the Incremental Facility borrowing was deemed a modification of the Second Term Loan Facility and as such, an additional $2.0 million of OID incurred in connection with the Third Amended Term Loan Facility was added to the existing OID. As of June 30, 2021, the original issue discount balance was $2.7 million, net of accumulated amortization of $2.8 million and was recorded as a reduction to the principal amount of the long-term debt outstanding as presented on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and will be amortized as a component of interest expense over the term of the Third Amended Term Loan Facility. Financing costs of $0.6 million incurred in connection with the Third Amended Term Loan Facility were expensed in accordance with ASC 470 – Debt and are included in other expenses in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations at June 30, 2021. In accordance with ASU 2015-15 Interest—Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30) Presentation and Subsequent Measurement of Debt Issuance Costs Associated with Line of Credit Arrangements, deferred financing fees of $0.7 million, net of accumulated amortization of $2.6 million, are presented as a reduction to the Third Amended Term Loan Facility outstanding at June 30, 2021 as presented on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, and will be amortized as a component of interest expense over the term of the Third Amended Term Loan Facility. An additional $0.6 million of deferred costs incurred on the Revolving Facility, in connection with the Third Amended Term Loan Facility, was recorded to prepaid and other current assets and other non-current assets in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and will be amortized on a straight-line basis through maturity on November 15, 2023. As of June 30, 2021, deferred costs for the Revolving Facility were $0.6 million, net of accumulated amortization of $0.1 million.

The carrying value of the long-term debt approximates fair value at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, and was derived from quoted market prices by independent dealers (Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy under ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures).

Note 9. Derivative Instruments

We use derivative financial instruments in the management of our interest rate exposure. Our strategy is to eliminate the cash flow risk on a portion of the variable rate debt caused by changes in the designated benchmark interest rate, LIBOR. The Company does not enter into or hold derivative financial instruments for speculative trading purposes.

On May 4, 2017, we entered into two identical pay-fixed, receive-variable, interest rate swaps with two different counterparties, to hedge the variability in the LIBOR interest payments on an aggregate notional value of $100.0 million of our Senior Notes, through the expiration of the swaps on March 31, 2022. At inception, these interest rate swaps were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk, and as such, the unrealized changes in fair value are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”).

The change in the fair value of the interest rate swap agreements for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, resulted in an unrealized gain of $0.4 million and $0.1 million, respectively, and was included in AOCI net of taxes. The change in the fair value of the interest rate swap agreements for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, resulted in an unrealized gain of $0.9 million and an unrealized loss of $2.3 million, respectively, which were included in AOCI net of taxes. The Company paid $0.5 million and $0.4 million of net interest on the settlement of the interest rate swap agreements for each of the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The Company paid $0.9 million and $0.4 million of net interest on the settlement of the interest rate swap agreements for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. As of June 30, 2021, the Company estimates that none of the unrealized loss included in AOCI related to these interest rate swap agreements will be realized and reported in operations within the next twelve months. No gain or loss was recorded in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020.

The aggregate fair value of the interest rate swaps was $1.4 million and $2.2 million as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, and was recorded in other long-term liabilities on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

By entering into derivative instrument contracts, we are exposed to counterparty credit risk. Counterparty credit risk is the failure of the counterparty to perform under the terms of the derivative contract. When the fair value of a derivative contract is in an asset position, the counterparty has a liability to us, which creates credit risk for us. We attempt to minimize this risk by selecting counterparties with investment grade credit ratings and regularly monitoring our market position with each counterparty. Our derivative instruments do not contain any credit-risk related contingent features.

Fair Value Measurements

Note 10. Fair Value Measurements

Our derivatives are valued using a discounted cash flow analysis that incorporates observable market parameters, such as interest rate yield curves, classified as Level 2 within the valuation hierarchy. Derivative valuations incorporate credit risk adjustments that are necessary to reflect the probability of default by us or the counterparty.

The following table presents our assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and the levels of inputs used to measure fair value, which include derivatives designated as cash flow hedging instruments, as well as their location on our accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 (amounts in thousands):

Category	Balance Sheet Location	Level 1	Level 2		Level 3	Total
Cash flow hedges:
Interest rate swap	Other long-term liabilities	—	$	2,231	—	$	2,231

Certain non-financial assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. These assets and liabilities are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to periodic impairment tests. These items primarily include long-lived assets, goodwill, other intangible assets, and equity method investments. On March 31, 2021, the Company acquired the remaining 75% equity interest in Pantaya. The Company accounted for the acquisition of the remaining 75% equity interest of Pantaya as a step acquisition, which required remeasurement of the Company’s existing 25% equity interest to fair value prior to completing the acquisition method of accounting. The Company utilized a market-based valuation approach to determine the fair value of the existing equity interest by adjusting for a control premium, which was based on comparable market transactions. As a result, the Company increased the value of its existing equity interest to its fair value resulting in the recognition of a non-cash gain of $30.1 million, which was included in (loss) gain on equity method investment activity in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the six months ended June 30, 2021. For more information, see Note 3, “Business Combination” of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. There were no other changes to the fair value of non-financial assets and liabilities measured on a nonrecurring basis.

The carrying amounts of cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value because of the short maturity of these items. The carrying value of the long-term debt approximates fair value because this instrument bears interest at a variable rate, is pre-payable, and is at terms currently available to the Company.

As of June 30, 2021, the Company had 20,484,602 shares of Class A common stock, and 19,720,381 shares of Class B common stock, issued and outstanding.

On November 18, 2020, the Company announced that its Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $20.0 million of the Company’s Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class A common stock”). Under the Company’s stock repurchase program, management is authorized to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock from time to time through open market purchases at prevailing prices, subject to stock price, business and market conditions and other factors. The expiration date for the repurchase plan is November 19, 2021. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company repurchased 127,458 shares of Class A common stock under the repurchase program for an aggregate purchase price of $1.3 million. As of June 30, 2021, the Company repurchased 0.2 million shares of Class A common stock under the repurchase program for an aggregate purchase price of $1.7 million, and the repurchased shares were recorded as treasury stock on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of June 30, 2021, the Company had $18.3 million remaining for future repurchases under the existing stock repurchase program.

Equity incentive plans

Effective May 25, 2021, the stockholders of all classes of capital stock of the Company approved at the annual stockholder meeting the Hemisphere Media Group, Inc. Amended and Restated 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Equity Incentive Plan”) to increase the number of shares of Class A common stock that may be delivered under the Equity Incentive Plan to an aggregate of 10.2 million shares of our Class A common stock. At June 30, 2021, 3.2 million shares remained available for issuance of stock options or other stock-based awards under our Equity Incentive Plan (including shares of restricted Class A common stock surrendered to the Company in payment of taxes required to be withheld in respect of vested shares of restricted Class A common stock, which are available for re-issuance). The expiration date of the Equity Incentive Plan, on and after which date no awards may be granted, is April 4, 2023. The Company’s Board of Directors, or a committee thereof, administers the Equity Incentive Plan and has the sole and plenary authority to, among other things: (i) designate participants; (ii) determine the type, size, and terms and conditions of awards to be granted; and (iii) determine the method by which an award may be settled, exercised, canceled, forfeited or suspended.

The Company’s time-based restricted stock awards and option awards generally vest in three equal annual installments beginning on the first anniversary of the grant date, subject to the grantee’s continued employment or service with the Company. The Company’s performance-based option awards vest based on the achievement of certain non-market-based performance metrics of the Company, subject to the grantee’s continued employment or service with the Company. The event-based restricted stock awards granted to certain members of our Board vest on the day preceding the Company’s annual stockholder meeting.

Stock-based compensation

Stock-based compensation expense related to stock options and restricted stock was $1.5 million and $1.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and $2.8 million and $2.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. As of June 30, 2021, there was $3.9 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested stock options, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.0 years. As of June 30, 2021, there was $5.0 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested restricted stock, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.8 years.

Stock options

The fair value of stock options granted is estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes pricing model for time-based options and performance-based options, and the Monte Carlo simulation model for event-based options. The expected term of options granted is derived using the simplified method under ASC 718-10-S99-1/SEC Topic 14.D for “plain vanilla” options and the Monte Carlo simulation for event-based options. Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s competitors given its lack of trading history. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield for a period consistent with the expected term of the option in effect at the time of the grant. The Company has estimated forfeitures of 1.5%, as the awards are granted to management for which the Company expects lower turnover, and has assumed no dividend yield, as dividends have never been paid to stock or option holders and will not be paid for the foreseeable future.

Restricted stock

Certain employees and directors have been awarded restricted stock under the Equity Incentive Plan. The time-based restricted stock grants vest primarily over a period of three years. The fair value and expected term of event-based restricted stock grants is estimated at the grant date using the Monte Carlo simulation model.

Leases

Note 13. Leases

The Company is a lessee under leases for land, office space and equipment with third parties, all of which are accounted for as operating leases. These leases generally have an initial term of one to seven years and provide for fixed monthly payments. Some of these leases provide for future rent escalations and renewal options and certain leases also obligate us to pay the cost of maintenance, insurance and property taxes. Total lease cost was $0.3 million and $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and $0.5 million and $0.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Leases with a term of one year or less are classified as short-term and are not recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Reclassification:

Reclassification: Certain prior year amounts on the presented Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation.

Basis of presentation:

Basis of presentation: The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for Hemisphere and its subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations, although we believe that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading. In our opinion, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair statement have been included. Our financial condition as of, and operating results, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the financial condition or results that may be expected for any future interim period or for the year ending December 31, 2021. These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Net (loss) income per common share:

Net (loss) income per common share: Basic (loss) income per share is computed by dividing loss attributable to Hemisphere Media Group, Inc. common stockholders by the number of weighted-average outstanding shares of common stock. Diluted (loss) income per share reflects the effect of the assumed exercise of stock options and vesting of restricted shares only in the periods in which such effect would have been dilutive.

The following table sets forth the computation of the common shares outstanding used in determining basic and diluted (loss) income per share attributable to Hemisphere Media Group, Inc. (amounts in thousands, except per share amounts):

	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2021		2020		2021		2020
Numerator for (loss) income per common share calculation:
Net (loss) income attributable to Hemisphere Media Group, Inc.	$	(6,286)	$	(6,682)	$	27,072	$	(16,110)
Denominator for (loss) income per common share calculation:
Weighted-average common shares, basic		39,641		39,444		39,511		39,378
Effect of dilutive securities
Stock options and restricted stock		—		—		389		—
Weighted-average common shares, diluted		39,641		39,444		39,900		39,378
(Loss) income per share attributable to Hemisphere Media Group, Inc.
Basic	$	(0.16)	$	(0.17)	$	0.69	$	(0.41)
Diluted	$	(0.16)	$	(0.17)	$	0.68	$	(0.41)

We apply the treasury stock method to measure the dilutive effect of our outstanding stock options and restricted stock awards and include the respective common share equivalents in the denominator of our diluted (loss) income per common share calculation. Per the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 260, under the treasury stock method, the incremental shares (difference between the number of shares assumed issued and the number of shares assumed purchased) shall be included in the denominator of the diluted (loss) income per share computation (ASC 260-10-45-23). The assumed exercise only occurs when the options are “In the Money” (exercise price is lower than the average market price for the period). If the options are “Out of the Money” (exercise price is higher than the average market price for the period), the exercise is not assumed since the result would be anti-dilutive. Potentially dilutive securities representing 1.6 million and 3.9 million shares of common stock for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, were excluded from the computation of diluted loss per common share for these periods because their effect would have been anti-dilutive. Potentially dilutive securities representing 2.1 million and 2.8 million shares of common stock for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, were excluded from the computation of diluted (loss) income per common share for these periods because their effects would have been anti-dilutive. The net (loss) income per share attributable to Hemisphere Media Group, Inc. amounts are the same for our Class A and Class B common stock because the holders of each class are legally entitled to equal per share distributions whether through dividends or in liquidation.

As a result of the loss from operations for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, 0.4 million and 0.0 million, respectively, outstanding awards were excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share because their effect was anti-dilutive. As a result of the loss from operations for the six months ended June 30, 2020, 0.3 million outstanding awards were excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share because their effect was anti-dilutive.

Risks and uncertainties:

Risks and uncertainties: In March 2020, the World Health Organization characterized the coronavirus (“COVID-19”) as a pandemic, and the President of the United States declared the COVID-19 outbreak a national emergency. The rapid spread of COVID-19 and the continuously evolving responses to combat it have had a negative impact on the global economy. Even during these unprecedented times, we have continued the production of news and entertainment programming, as our viewers rely on our Networks to keep them informed.

The impact of COVID-19 and measures to prevent its spread have continued to affect our businesses in a number of ways. Beginning in March 2020, the Company experienced adverse advertising revenue impacts. Operationally, most non-production and programming personnel are working remotely, and the Company has restricted business travel. The Company has managed the remote workforce transition effectively and there have been no material adverse impacts on operations through June 30, 2021. While the Company’s advertising revenue improved in second half of 2020 and continued into the first half of 2021, the Company is unable to reasonably predict the impact that a significant change in circumstances, including the ability of our workforce and/or key personnel to work effectively because of illness, government actions or other restrictions in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic, may have on our businesses in the future. The nature and full extent of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our future operations will depend on numerous factors, all of which are highly uncertain and cannot be reasonably predicted. These factors include the length and severity of the outbreak, including the extent of surges in positive cases related to variants of COVID-19, such as the Delta variant, as well as the availability and efficacy of vaccines and treatments for the disease and whether individuals choose to vaccinate themselves, the responses of private sector businesses and governments, including the timing and amount of government stimulus, the impact on economic activity and the impact on our customers, employees and suppliers. For more information on the risks associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, see “Item 1A-Risk Factors” included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.

The Company has evaluated and continues to evaluate the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, including the impairment of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets and the fair value of equity method investments. The ultimate impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, including the extent of any adverse impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition, remains uncertain.

Use of estimates:

Use of estimates: In preparing these financial statements, management had to make estimates and assumptions that affected the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the balance sheet dates, and the reported revenues and expenses for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. Such estimates are based on historical experience and other assumptions that are considered appropriate in the circumstances. However, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Recently adopted Accounting Standards and Accounting guidance not yet adopted:

Recently adopted Accounting Standards: On January 1, 2021, we adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“the FASB”) ASU 2019-12—Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. The updated guidance simplifies the accounting for income taxes in several areas by removing certain exceptions and by clarifying and amending existing guidance applicable to accounting for income taxes. The adoption of this ASU did not have an impact on our accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Accounting guidance not yet adopted: In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04-Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. The update provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP principles to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) or another reference rate expected to be discontinued due to reference rate reform. This guidance was effective beginning on March 12, 2020, and can be adopted on a prospective basis no later than December 31, 2022, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact, if any, that the updated accounting guidance will have on our accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
