Exhibit 99.1 MEREDITH REPORTS FISCAL 2021 FOURTH QUARTER AND FULL YEAR RESULTS Fiscal 2021 Features Digital Advertising Revenue Surpassing Magazine; $254 Million Debt Reduction; and Agreement to Sell Local Media Group Digital and Non-Political Advertising, Digital Consumer, and Licensing Drive Strong 4th Quarter Growth DES MOINES, IA (August 12, 2021) – Meredith Corporation (NYSE: MDP) today reported fiscal 2021 fourth quarter and full year results as summarized below. All financial results refer to fiscal 2021 fourth quarter or full year and the comparable prior-year period unless otherwise stated. Three Months Twelve Months Periods ended June 30, 2021 Results Variance from Prior Year Results Variance from Prior Year (In millions) Total revenues................................................................................. $ 717.9 17 % $ 2,977.4 5 % Earnings from continuing operations.............................................. 36.7 F 306.6 F Net special items 1,2......................................................................... 17.8 F (22.9) F Earnings from continuing operations before special items 2........... 54.5 F 283.7 91 % Adjusted EBITDA 2......................................................................... 123.6 55 % 682.9 25 % Net cash provided by operating activities........................................ 60.8 (51) % 398.6 30 % Free cash flow 2............................................................................... 51.2 (55) % 363.4 45 % F represents favorable improvements greater than 100%. 1 Special items for the three months ended June 30, 2021, primarily consisted of transaction costs. Special items for the twelve months ended June 30, 2021, primarily consisted of the gain from the sale of Travel + Leisure brand, partially offset by transaction costs, severance and related benefit costs, integration and restructuring costs, and debt redemption costs. 2 See Tables 1-5 for supplemental disclosures regarding non-GAAP financial measures. “We delivered strong operational performance in fiscal 2021 despite the many challenges presented by the COVID-19 pandemic, ending the year in a stronger financial and competitive position than when we started,” said Meredith Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Tom Harty. “From a strategic standpoint, fiscal 2021 was transformative. Our digital businesses are delivering record performance, and our agreed sale of the Local Media Group significantly strengthens our financial position.” Driving strategic transformation in fiscal 2021 Revenues grew to $3.0 billion, up 5 percent. Earnings from continuing operations were $307 million, compared to a loss of $209 million. Adjusted EBITDA was $683 million, compared to $548 million. Key accomplishments included: • Digital advertising revenues surpassing magazine for the first time in Meredith’s history. Digital advertising grew 31 percent. Additionally, Meredith’s licensing and digital and other consumer driven revenues grew 27 percent and 25 percent, respectively. • $254 million debt reduction, enabled by record Cash Flow from Operations and Free Cash Flow. Debt reduction was enabled by total company revenue performance along with proactive actions to enhance Meredith’s financial flexibility. 1

• Agreeing to sell Meredith’s Local Media Group for $2.825 billion, representing a 10x valuation. The transaction, which also includes spinning Meredith’s National Media Group, comprising digital and magazine, out to shareholders, is expected to advance the company’s financial priorities including reducing net debt, improving financial flexibility, optimizing capital allocation to high-potential opportunities, and providing returns to shareholders. Delivering strong fiscal 2021 fourth quarter revenue and profit growth Fiscal 2021 fourth quarter revenues grew 17 percent to $718 million. Key highlights included: • 80 percent increase in digital advertising revenues, driving 26 percent growth in total National Media Group advertising related revenues. Meredith continues to benefit from its proprietary technology platform that brings together strong content and trusted brands, unique taxonomy, and first party data. • 19 percent increase in licensing/digital and other consumer driven revenues. Performance was driven by Apple News+, strong sales of Better Homes & Gardens-branded products at Walmart, and performance marketing via retail partners, including Walmart, Amazon, and Target. • 50 percent increase in non-political spot advertising and a 5 percent increase in retransmission revenues. Non-political spot advertising growth was driven primarily by professional services, automotive, and gaming categories, while retransmission was driven primarily by renewals and annual escalation. • 7 percent increase in combined newsstand and subscription revenues. Newsstand performance was driven by more titles published and stronger consumer demand as the channel recovers from COVID-19-related declines. Subscription performance benefited from strong growth in solicitation channels that drive high lifetime subscriber value, including owned and operated digital properties, paid search, direct mail, and renewal campaigns. Earnings from continuing operations were $37 million, compared to $6 million. Results included $18 million of special items, primarily transaction costs, compared to $6 million. Adjusted EBITDA was $124 million, compared to $80 million, reflecting strong digital, non-political advertising, and consumer revenue growth and positive cost leverage, partially offset by lower magazine advertising revenues. Cash Flows from Operations and Free Cash Flow were $61 million and $51 million, respectively, compared to $124 million and $114 million, reflecting earnings growth and strong cash conversion driven by continued working capital improvements, however down as prior-year collections significantly outpaced revenue in the COVID period. “We concluded the year with a strong fourth quarter performance as our digital business again delivered record results, including digital advertising revenues that surpassed magazine advertising for the third consecutive quarter, coupled with another quarter of licensing and digital consumer related growth,” Harty said. “Looking ahead, we believe Meredith is well-positioned for growth through the combination of our broad audience engagement and trusted brands across media platforms, our proprietary digital platform, and a stronger balance sheet we expect will enable future digital and consumer investments and capital returns to shareholders.” CONFERENCE CALL PRESENTATION SLIDES AND WEBCAST Visit ir.meredith.com to view a presentation related to fiscal 2021 fourth quarter and full year results and also listen to a conference call scheduled to begin this morning at 9:00 a.m. EDT. RATIONALE FOR USE AND ACCESS TO NON-GAAP RESULTS Management uses and presents GAAP and non-GAAP results to evaluate and communicate its performance. While non-GAAP measures should not be construed as alternatives to GAAP measures, management believes these non-GAAP measures are useful as an aid to further understand Meredith’s current performance, performance trends, and financial condition. 2

Free Cash Flow, earnings from continuing operations before special items, operating profit before special items, consolidated and segment adjusted EBITDA, consolidated and segment adjusted EBITDA margin, and net debt are common supplemental measures of performance used by investors and financial analysts. Management believes these measures provide additional analytical tools. Free Cash Flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures. This metric has been included as a measure of the Company’s liquidity and ability to fund its operations. Earnings from continuing operations before special items and operating profit before special items remove the impact of special items on earnings (loss) from continuing operations and operating profit (loss). Consolidated adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings (loss) from continuing operations before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, and special items. Segment adjusted EBITDA is defined as segment operating profit (loss) and non-operating income (expense), net before depreciation, amortization, and special items. These special items have been removed as they have been deemed to be non-operational in nature. Management does not use adjusted EBITDA as a measure of liquidity or funds available for management’s discretionary use because it excludes certain contractual and nondiscretionary expenditures. Net debt is defined as carrying value of total long-term debt less cash and cash equivalents. Net debt provides additional insight to the Company’s financial position. Reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP measures are attached to this press release and at Meredith.com.

Fiscal 2021 Fourth Quarter Earnings Presentation August 12, 2021 Exhibit 99.2

2 Safe Harbor Statement and Non-GAAP Financial Measures CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS This presentation contains certain forward-looking statements, as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, that are subject to risks and uncertainties. These statements are based on management’s current knowledge and estimates of factors affecting the Company and its operations. Statements in this presentation that are forward-looking include, but are not limited to, statements related to the timing and benefits of the proposed sale of the Local Media Group, segment reporting, and the Company’s expectations for fiscal 2022 first quarter. Forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as may, should, expects, provides, anticipates, assumes, can, will, meets, could, likely, intends, might, predicts, seeks, would, believes, estimates, plans, continues, guidance or outlook, or variations of these words or similar expressions. Actual results may differ materially from those currently anticipated. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements include the following: market conditions; the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic; downturns in global, national, and/or local economies; a softening of the domestic advertising market; world, national, or local events that could disrupt broadcast television; increased consolidation among major advertisers or other events depressing the level of advertising spending; the unexpected loss or insolvency of one or more major clients or vendors; the integration of acquired businesses; changes in consumer reading, purchasing, and/or television viewing patterns; increases in paper, postage, printing, syndicated programming, or other costs; changes in television network affiliation agreements; technological developments affecting products or methods of distribution; changes in government regulations affecting the Company's industries; the parties’ ability to consummate the previously announced proposed merger and spin-off; the conditions to the completion of the transactions, including the receipt of approval of Meredith’s shareholders; the regulatory approvals required for the proposed merger not being obtained on the terms expected or on the anticipated schedule; the parties’ ability to meet expectations regarding the timing, completion, and accounting and tax treatments of the transactions; potential inability to retain key employees; Meredith’s ability to operate successfully as a standalone business post-transaction; the ability to obtain financing on the expected terms; changes in interest rates; the consequences of acquisitions and/or dispositions; and Meredith’s ability to comply with the terms of its debt financing. Additional information concerning these and other risk factors can be found in Meredith’s and Gray Television Inc.’s (“Gray”) filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), which are available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. Such risk factors may be amplified by the COVID-19 pandemic and its potential impact on the Company’s business and the global economy. Meredith, SpinCo (defined on the following page) and Gray assume no obligation to update or revise publicly the information in this communication, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, except as otherwise required by law. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements that speak only as of the date hereof. RATIONALE FOR USE AND ACCESS TO NON-GAAP RESULTS Management uses and presents GAAP and non-GAAP results to evaluate and communicate its performance. While non-GAAP measures should not be construed as alternatives to GAAP measures, management believes these non-GAAP measures are useful as an aid to further understand Meredith’s current performance, performance trends, and financial condition. Free cash flow, earnings from continuing operations before special items, operating profit before special items, consolidated and segment adjusted EBITDA, consolidated and segment adjusted EBITDA margin, comparable revenues, net debt, and net debt leverage are common supplemental measures of performance used by investors and financial analysts. Management believes these measures provide additional analytical tools. Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures. This metric has been included as a measure of the Company’s liquidity and ability to fund its operations. Earnings from continuing operations before special items and operating profit before special items remove the impact of special items on earnings (loss) from continuing operations and operating profit (loss). Consolidated adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings (loss) from continuing operations before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, and special items. Segment adjusted EBITDA is defined as segment operating profit (loss) and non-operating income (expense), net before depreciation, amortization, and special items. These special items have been removed as they have been deemed to be non-operational in nature. Management does not use adjusted EBITDA as a measure of liquidity or funds available for management’s discretionary use because it excludes certain contractual and nondiscretionary expenditures. Comparable revenues remove the impact of portfolio changes in our magazine business to facilitate year-over-year comparisons. Net debt is defined as carrying value of total long-term debt less cash and cash equivalents. Net debt leverage is defined as net debt divided by the trailing twelve months Adjusted EBITDA. Net debt and net debt leverage provide additional insight to the Company’s financial position. Reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP measures are attached to this presentation and at Meredith.com.
