Related Party Transactions [Abstract] |
Related Party | Note 15. Related Party The Company is party to a commercial agreement with TEGNA, who was considered a related party through the Separation date of May 31, 2017. Related party revenue earned from this agreement was zero, $3.4 million and $8.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The commercial agreement with TEGNA is effective until 2020. Prior to the Separation, TEGNA utilized a centralized approach to cash management and the financing of its operations, providing funds to its subsidiaries as needed. These transactions were recorded in “TEGNA’s investment, net” when advanced. Accordingly, none of TEGNA’s cash and cash equivalents were assigned to the Company in TEGNA’s financial statements. Cash and cash equivalents in the Company’s Consolidated and Combined Balance Sheets represent cash held locally by the Company. Equity in the Consolidated and Combined Balance Sheets represents the accumulated balance of transactions between the Company and TEGNA, the Company’s paid-in-capital and TEGNA’s interest in the Company’s cumulative retained earnings, and are presented within “TEGNA’s investment, net.” The amounts comprising the accumulated balance of transactions between the Company and TEGNA and TEGNA affiliates include (1) the cumulative net assets attributed to the Company by TEGNA and TEGNA affiliates; (2) the cumulative net advances to TEGNA representing the Company’s cumulative funds swept (net of funding provided by TEGNA and TEGNA affiliates to the Company) as part of the centralized cash management program; and (3) certain post-Separation transactions.
