ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSITIONS |
ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSITIONS | 4. ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSITIONS: On April 11, 2023, the Company entered into a definitive asset purchase agreement with Cox Media Group (“CMG”) to purchase its Houston radio cluster. Under the terms of the agreement, Urban One agreed to acquire 93Q Country KKBQ-FM, classic rock station The Eagle 106.9 & 107.5 KHPT-FM and KGLK-FM, and Country Legends 97.1 KTHT-FM. The transaction price was $27.5 million. The acquisition was completed on August 1, 2023. Please refer to Note 12 – Subsequent Events of our consolidated financial statements for further details. In anticipation of the transaction with CMG, the Company agreed to sell its KROI-FM radio broadcasting license along with the associated station assets from the radio broadcasting segment to a third party for approximately $7.5 million, which represents estimated fair value as of March 31, 2023. As part of customary closing terms, the KROI assets are held in an irrevocable trust until the transaction is complete, which is anticipated to close in 2024. The identified assets and liabilities, with a combined carrying value of approximately $9.9 million (net of impairments of approximately $16.8 million) and $2.4 million, respectively, were classified as held for sale in the consolidated balance sheet at March 31, 2023. The major category of the assets held for sale included radio broadcasting licenses in the amount of approximately $7.3 million (net of impairments). The Company recognized an impairment charge of approximately $16.8 million related to the held-for-sale assets during the three months ended March 31, 2023. In addition, the Company is required to divest of KTHT-FM as part of the closing conditions of the CMG transaction. The assets are held in a trust until the divestiture is complete, which is anticipated to close in 2024. ​ On June 13, 2022, the Company entered into a definitive asset purchase agreement with Emmis Communications (“Emmis”) to purchase its Indianapolis Radio Cluster to expand the Company’s market presence. The deal was subject to FCC approval and other customary closing conditions and, after obtaining the approvals, closed on August 31, 2022. Urban One acquired radio stations WYXB (B105.7FM), WLHK (97.1FM), WIBC (93.1FM), translators W228CX and W298BB (The Fan 93.5FM and 107.5FM), and Network Indiana for $25 million. As part of the transaction, the Company disposed of its former WHHH radio broadcasting license along with the intellectual property related to WNOW (there was a call letter change from WHHH to WNOW immediately prior to the close) to a third party for approximately $3.2 million. The fair value of the assets disposed approximated the carrying value of the assets. The Company recognized a net loss of approximately $0.1 million related to the disposal transaction during the year ended December 31, 2022. ​ The Company’s purchase accounting to reflect the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the Emmis transaction consisted of approximately $23.6 million to radio broadcasting licenses, $0.2 million to towers and antennas, $0.3 million to transmitters, $0.2 million to studios, $0.1 million to vehicles, $27,000 to furniture, fixtures, computer equipment and computer software, $0.1 million to acquired advertising contracts, $0.4 million to goodwill, and $1.2 million to right of use assets and operating lease liabilities. The purchase price allocation was finalized during fiscal year 2022, and no significant changes were recorded from the original estimation. Unaudited Pro Forma Information ​ The table below sets forth unaudited pro forma results of operations, assuming that the Emmis acquisition occurred on January 1, 2022: ​

​ This pro forma financial information is based on historical results of operations, adjusted for the allocation of the purchase price and other accounting adjustments, and is not indicative of what our results would have been had we operated Emmis for the period presented because the pro forma results do not reflect expected synergies. The pro forma adjustments primarily reflect depreciation expense and amortization of tangible and intangible assets related to the fair value adjustments of the assets acquired. The pro forma adjustments are based on available information and assumptions that the Company believes are reasonable to reflect the impact of this acquisition on the Company’s historical financial information on a supplemental pro forma basis.
