ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSITIONS |
ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSITIONS | 2. ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSITIONS: On October 30, 2020, we entered into a local marketing agreement (“LMA”) with Southeastern Ohio Broadcasting System for the operation of station WWCD-FM in Columbus, Ohio beginning November 2020. Under the terms of the LMA, we will pay a monthly fee as well as certain operating costs, and, in exchange, we will retain all revenues from the sale of the advertising within the programming. On November 6, 2020, the Company entered into a definitive asset exchange agreement with Audacy, Inc. (formerly Entercom Communications Corp.) whereby the Company would receive Charlotte stations: WLNK-FM (Adult Contemporary); WBT-AM & FM (News Talk Radio); and WFNZ-AM & 102.5 FM Translator (Sports Radio). As part of the transaction, the Company transferred three radio stations to Audacy: St. Louis, WHHL-FM (Urban Contemporary); Philadelphia, WPHI-FM (Urban Contemporary); and Washington, DC, WTEM-AM (Sports); as well as the intellectual property to its St. Louis radio station, WFUN-FM (Adult Urban Contemporary). The Company and Audacy began operation of the exchanged stations on or about November 23, 2020 under LMAs until FCC approval was obtained. The deal was subject to FCC approval and other customary closing conditions and, after obtaining the approvals, closed on April 20, 2021. In addition, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement with Gateway Creative Broadcasting, Inc. (“Gateway”) for the remaining assets of our WFUN station in a separate transaction which also closed on April 20, 2021. The Company received approximately $8.0 million in exchange for approximately $8.0 million in tangible and intangible assets as part of the transaction with Gateway. ​ The Company’s purchase accounting to reflect the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed consisted of approximately $21.1 million to radio broadcasting licenses, approximately $1.8 million to land and land improvements, approximately $2.0 million to towers and antennas, $517,000 to buildings, approximately $1.0 million to transmitters, $712,000 to studios, $53,000 to vehicles, $200,000 to furniture and fixtures, $67,000 to computer equipment, $19,000 to other equipment, approximately $1.7 million to right of use assets, $1.9 million advertising credit liability, $921,000 to operating lease liabilities, and $812,000 unfavorable lease liability. The fair value of the assets exchanged with Audacy approximate the carrying value of the assets. The Company recognized a net gain of $404,000 related to the Audacy and Gateway transactions during the year ended December 31, 2021.
