11. Asset Exchange

On January 4, 2016, the Company completed an asset exchange with International Broadcasting Corp. under which the Company agreed to exchange certain assets used or useful in the operations of WIOA-FM, WIOC-FM, and WZET-FM in Puerto Rico for certain assets used or useful in the operations of WTCV (DT), WVEO (DT), and WVOZ (TV) in Puerto Rico previously owned and operated by International Broadcasting Corp.

The asset exchange is being accounted for as a non-monetary exchange in accordance with ASC-845 Nonmonetary Transactions, as the Company did not acquire any significant processes to meet the definition of a business in accordance with ASC 805 Business Combinations. As the transaction involved significant monetary consideration, the Company recorded the exchange at fair value. The fair value of the assets received in the asset exchange was $2.9 million, as determined by an independent third party valuation. In addition, the Company paid $1.9 million in cash which we attribute to the value of the acquired television spectrum. Subsequently, we have filed an application to participate in the FCC’s Broadcast Incentive Auction with our Puerto Rico television stations to potentially generate cash proceeds that are expected to be created by the auction process.
