Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
Our disclosure and analysis in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q concerning our operations, cash flows and financial position, contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These forward-looking statements do not relay historical facts, but rather reflect our current expectations concerning future operations, results, and events. All statements other than statements of historical fact are “forward-looking statements” including any projections of earnings, revenues or other financial items; any statements of the plans, strategies and objectives of management for future operations; any statements concerning proposed new activities, services or developments; any statements regarding future economic conditions or performance; any statements of belief; and any statements of assumptions underlying any of the foregoing. You can identify some of these forward-looking statements by our use of words such as “anticipates,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “seeks,” “likely,” “may,” “estimates” and similar expressions. You can also identify a forward-looking statement in that such statements discuss matters in a way that anticipates operations, results or events that have not already occurred but rather will or may occur in future periods. We cannot guarantee that we will achieve any forward-looking plans, intentions, results, operations, or expectations. Because these statements apply to future events, they are subject to risks and uncertainties, some of which are beyond our control that could cause actual results to differ materially from those forecasted or anticipated in the forward-looking statements. These risks, uncertainties and factors include (in no particular order), but are not limited to:
•recession, economic volatility, financial market unpredictability and fluctuations in the United States and other world economies that may affect our business and financial condition, and the business and financial conditions of our advertisers;
•our degree of leverage, certain cash commitments related thereto, and potential inability to finance strategic transactions, including potential refinance transactions, given fluctuations in market conditions;
•fluctuations in the local economies of the markets in which we operate (particularly our largest markets, Atlanta; Baltimore; Charlotte; Dallas; Houston; Indianapolis; and Washington, DC) or fluctuations within individual business sectors experiencing a downturn even in the absence of a broader recession could negatively impact our ability to meet our cash needs;
•increased costs due to tariffs, inflation, or any changes in music royalty fees;
•risks associated with the implementation and execution of our business diversification strategy, including any strategic initiatives;
•risks associated with our investments or potential investment in gaming businesses;
•regulation by the Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) relative to maintaining our broadcasting licenses, enacting media ownership rules, enforcing of indecency rules, and any changes in enforcement priorities;
•changes in our key personnel and on-air talent;
•increases in competition for and in the costs of our programming and content, including on-air talent and content production or acquisitions availability/costs;
•financial losses that may be incurred due to impairment charges against our broadcasting licenses, goodwill, and other intangible assets;
•increased competition for advertising revenues with other radio stations, broadcast and cable television, newspapers and magazines, outdoor advertising, direct mail, internet radio, satellite radio, smart phones, tablets, and other wireless media, the internet, social media, and other forms of advertising;

•the impact of our acquisitions, dispositions, and similar transactions, as well as consolidation in industries in which we and our advertisers operate;
•public health crises, epidemics and pandemics and their impact on our business and the businesses of our advertisers, including disruptions and inefficiencies in the supply chain;
•developments and/or changes in laws and regulations, such as the California Consumer Privacy Act or other similar federal or state regulation through legislative action and revised rules and standards;
•disruptions to our technology network including computer systems and software, whether by human-caused or other disruptions of our operating systems, structures, or equipment, including as we further develop alternative work arrangements, as well as natural events such as pandemic, severe weather, fires, floods, and earthquakes;
•material weaknesses identified in our internal control over financial reporting which, if not remediated, could result in material misstatements in our condensed consolidated financial statements;
•failure to meet the continued listing standards of NASDAQ Stock Market (“NASDAQ”), which could cause our common stock to be delisted, and which could have a material adverse effect on the liquidity and market price of our common stock and expose the Company to litigation; and
•other factors mentioned in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) including the factors discussed in detail in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 (“Form 10-K”) filed on March 27, 2025.
You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which reflect our views based only on information currently available to us as of the date of this report. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements because of new information, future events or otherwise.

URBAN ONE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. ORGANIZATION
Urban One, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and its subsidiaries (collectively, “Urban One,” the “Company,” “we,” “our” and/or “us”) is an urban-oriented, multi-media Company that primarily targets African-American and urban consumers. Our core business is our radio broadcasting franchise which is the largest radio broadcasting operation that primarily targets African-American and urban listeners. As of March 31, 2025, the Company owned and/or operated 72 independently formatted, revenue producing broadcast stations (including 57 FM or AM stations, 13 HD stations, and the 2 low power television stations the Company operates), located in 13 of the most populous African-American markets in the United States. While a core source of our revenue has historically been and remains the sale of local and national advertising for broadcast on our radio stations, our strategy is to operate the premier multi-media entertainment and information content platform targeting African-American and urban consumers. Thus, the Company has diversified its revenue streams by making acquisitions and investments in other complementary media properties. Our diverse media and entertainment interests include TV One, LLC (“TV One”), which operates two cable television networks targeting African-American and urban viewers, TV One and CLEO TV; our 94.6% ownership interest in Reach Media, Inc. (“Reach Media”) which operates the Rickey Smiley Morning Show and our other syndicated programming assets, including the Get Up! Mornings with Erica Campbell Show and the DL Hughley Show; and Interactive One, LLC (“Interactive One”), our wholly owned digital platform serving the African-American community through social content, news, information, and entertainment websites, including its iONE Digital, Cassius and Bossip, HipHopWired and MadameNoire digital platforms and brands. Through our national multi-media operations, the Company provides advertisers with a unique and powerful delivery mechanism to communicate with African-American and urban audiences.
Our core radio broadcasting franchise operates under the brand “Radio One.” The Company also operates other brands, such as TV One, CLEO TV, Reach Media, iONE Digital, and One Solution, while developing additional branding reflective of our diverse media operations and our targeting of African-American and urban audiences.
As part of our condensed consolidated financial statements, consistent with our financial reporting structure and how the Company currently manages its businesses, the Company has provided selected financial information on the Company’s four reportable segments: (i) Radio Broadcasting; (ii) Reach Media; (iii) Digital; and (iv) Cable Television. See Note 13 – Segment Information of our condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion, including changes in our segment structure.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and under the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial information. In management’s opinion, the interim financial data presented herein includes all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair statement of its financial position as of March 31, 2025, and its results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related financial information should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto as of and for the year ended December 31, 2024 included in the Company’s Form 10-K. There has been no change to the Company’s accounting policies as described in Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, in the notes to the consolidated financial statements in Item 8 of Part II of Form 10-K.
All amounts presented in these condensed consolidated financial statements are expressed in thousands of U.S. dollars, except share and per share amounts and unless otherwise noted.

Table of Contents
The Company's results are subject to seasonal fluctuations and, typically, revenues are lowest in the first calendar quarter of the year. Due to this seasonality, the results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year. The Company experiences further seasonality in odd versus even years as there tends to be more political activity in even years which can have a positive impact on advertising revenues.
Principles of Consolidation
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts and operations of Urban One and subsidiaries in which Urban One has a controlling financial interest, which is generally determined to exist when the Company holds a majority voting interest. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Non-controlling interests have been recognized where a controlling interest exists, but the Company owns less than 100% of the controlled entity.
The Company is required to include the financial statements of variable interest entities (“VIE”) in its condensed consolidated financial statements. Under the VIE model, the Company consolidates an investment if it has control to direct the activities of the entity and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE.
Reclassification
Certain amounts in the prior year financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current quarter presentation. Specifically, Corporate selling, general and administrative expenses have been collapsed with Selling, general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions. The most significant estimates and assumptions are used in determining: (i) estimates of future cash flows, revenue growth, operating profit margin mature market share, royalty payment avoided, terminal growth rate used to evaluate and recognize impairments; (ii) estimates of fair value of the Employment Agreement Award (as defined below) and the redeemable non-controlling interest in Reach Media; and (iii) deferred taxes and related valuation allowance, including uncertain tax positions.
These estimates and assumptions may affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements. The Company bases these estimates on historical experience, the current economic environment or various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. However, economic uncertainty and any disruption in financial markets increase the possibility that actual results may differ from these estimates. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically, and the effects of revisions are reflected prospectively in the period they occur.

Table of Contents
Unbilled receivables consist of earned revenue that has not yet been billed. Contract assets are included in trade accounts receivable, net on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Customer advances and unearned income represent advance payments by customers for future services under contract that are generally fulfilled in the near term. For advertising sold based on audience guarantees, audience deficiency typically results in an obligation to deliver additional advertising units to the customer, generally within one year of the campaign end date. To the extent that audience guarantees are not met, a reserve for audience deficiency is recorded until such a time that the audience guarantee has been satisfied. Unearned event income represents payments by customers for upcoming events. Contract liabilities are included in other current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
For customer advances and unearned income as of January 1, 2025, approximately $1.8 million was recognized as revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2025. For the reserve for audience deficiency as of January 1, 2025, approximately $2.9 million was recognized as revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2025. For unearned event income as of January 1, 2025, no revenue was recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2025.
4. EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) attributable to common stockholders is presented in conformity with the two-class method required for participating securities: Class A, Class B, Class C and Class D common stock. The rights of the holders of Class A, Class B, Class C and Class D common stock are identical, except with respect to voting, conversion, and transfer rights.
The undistributed earnings or losses are allocated based on the contractual participation rights of Class A, Class B, Class C and Class D common shares as if the earnings or losses for the year have been distributed. As the liquidation and dividend rights are identical, the undistributed earnings or losses are allocated on a proportionate basis, and as such, diluted and basic earnings per share is the same for each class of common stock under the two-class method.
The following table sets forth the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share from continuing operations:

5. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The Company reports financial and non-financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring and non-recurring basis under the provisions of ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurement” (“ASC 820”) which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.
As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the fair values of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are categorized as follows:

| Total |  | Level 1 |  | Level 2 |  | Level 3

(a) On April 3, 2024, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Alfred C. Liggins, III, President and Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) pursuant to which he is eligible to receive an award (the “Employment Agreement Award”) amount equal to approximately 4.0% of any proceeds from distributions or other liquidity events in excess of the return of the Company’s aggregate investment in TV One. The Company reviews the factors underlying this award at the end of each reporting period including the valuation of TV One (based on the estimated enterprise fair value of TV One as determined by the income approach using a discounted cash flow analysis and the market approach using comparable public company multiples). Significant inputs to the discounted cash flow analysis include revenue growth rates, future operating profit, and discount rate. Significant inputs to the market approach include publicly held peer companies and recurring EBITDA multiples. The terms of the new employment agreement were effective as of January 1, 2022.
(b) The fair value is measured using a discounted cash flow methodology. Significant inputs to the discounted cash flow analysis include revenue growth rates, future operating profit margins, discount rate and terminal growth rate.
(c) The Company measures and reports its cash equivalents that are invested in money market funds and valued based on quoted market prices which approximate cost due to their short-term maturities.

(a)Any significant increases or decreases in unobservable inputs could result in significantly higher or lower fair value measurements. Changes in fair value measurements, if significant, may affect the Company’s performance of cash flows.
Certain assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis using Level 3 inputs as defined in ASC 820. These assets are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to fair value adjustments only in certain circumstances. Included in this category are goodwill, radio broadcasting licenses and other intangible assets, net, which are written down to fair value when they are determined to be impaired, as well as content assets that are periodically written down to net realizable value. See Note 9 – Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets of the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion.
Financial Instruments
As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company’s financial instruments consisted of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, trade accounts receivable, asset-backed credit facility, and long-term debt. The carrying amounts approximated fair value for each of these financial instruments as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, except for the Company’s long-term debt, which is disclosed in Note 10 - Long-Term Debt.

(1) Includes the allocation of goodwill relating to the reclassification of the portion of the Company's CTV offering previously within the iONE reportable segment to our TV One reportable segment. See Note 13 - Segment Information for information on this segment reclassification.
As of March 31, 2025 the Company performed a qualitative assessment for all of the radio broadcasting reporting units that contain goodwill. Based on the qualitative impairment assessment performed, no goodwill impairment losses were recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2025.
Radio Broadcasting Licenses
As of March 31, 2025, projected gross market revenues and operating profit margin declined in the Radio Broadcasting segment creating a triggering event indicating that the fair value of certain of the Company’s radio broadcasting licenses were more likely than not to be less than its carrying value.
To determine the fair value of the broadcasting licenses, the Company utilized the income approach which values a license by calculating the value of a hypothetical startup company that initially has no assets except the asset to be valued (the broadcasting license). The Company performed a discounted cash flow analysis for broadcasting licenses across relevant radio markets. The key assumptions used in the discounted cash flow analysis for broadcasting licenses include market revenue and projected revenue growth by market, mature market share, operating profit margin, terminal growth rate, and discount rate.
Based on this analysis, the Company recognized an impairment loss of approximately $6.4 million associated with five radio markets within the Radio Broadcasting segment, included in impairment of intangible assets, on the condensed consolidated statement of operations during the three months ended March 31, 2025.

Terminal growth rate | (0.5)%
Mature market share range | 0.8% - 30.0%
Operating profit margin range | 2.8% - 30.0%

TV One Trade Name
Due to industry and macro-economic conditions along with ongoing subscriber churn, and forecasted cash flows for TV One, the Company reassessed the useful life for the trade name TV One ( the “TV One Trade Name”). As a result of the reassessment, the Company concluded the useful life should change from indefinite-lived to a finite-lived intangible asset effective January 1, 2025. The Company has adopted an accelerated amortization method and will amortize this asset with a carrying value of $26.6 million over a 20-year period. This was considered a change in estimate, was accounted for prospectively, and resulted in amortization expense of $0.6 million included in depreciation and amortization, on the condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2025.
Future estimated amortization expense related to the TV One Trade Name for the years 2025 through 2030 and thereafter is as follows:

2028 Notes
On January 25, 2021, the Company closed on an offering (the “2028 Notes”) of $825.0 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2028 Notes in a private offering exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The 2028 Notes mature on February 1, 2028 and interest on the 2028 Notes accrues and is payable semiannually in arrears on February 1 and August 1 of each year at a rate of 7.375% per annum.
The 2028 Notes and the guarantees are secured, subject to permitted liens and except for certain excluded assets (i) on a first priority basis by substantially all of the Company’s and the guarantors’ current and future property and assets (other than accounts receivable, cash, deposit accounts, other bank accounts, securities accounts, inventory and related assets that secure the Company’s asset-backed revolving credit facility on a first priority basis (the “ABL Priority Collateral”), including the capital stock of each guarantor (collectively, the “Notes Priority Collateral”) and (ii) on a second priority basis by the ABL Priority Collateral. The 2028 Notes require the Company to file quarterly and annual reports with the SEC within a specified time period after the Company’s fiscal quarter end and year end. However, failure to comply does not constitute an event of default unless the Company does not comply within 120 days after receiving written notice from the Trustee. The Company has not received any such notice.
The Company conducts a portion of its business through its subsidiaries. Certain of the Company’s subsidiaries have fully and unconditionally guaranteed the Company’s 2028 Notes.
The deferred financing costs included in interest expense for all instruments, for each of the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, was approximately $0.5 million. The Company’s effective interest rate for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 was 7.84% and 7.73%, respectively.
From time to time, the Company may repurchase its debt securities in open market purchases. Under open authorizations, repurchases of the outstanding debt may be made from time to time on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. Repurchased debt is retired when repurchased. The timing and extent of any repurchases will depend upon prevailing market conditions, the trading price of the Company’s outstanding debt and other factors, and subject to restrictions under applicable law.
During the fourth quarter of 2023, the Board of Directors authorized and approved a note repurchase program for up to $75.0 million of the currently outstanding 2028 Notes (the “Q4 2023 Notes Repurchase Authorization”). During the second quarter of 2024, the Board of Directors authorized and approved a further note repurchase program for up to $75.0 million of the currently outstanding 2028 Notes (the “June 2024 Authorization”). During the first quarter of 2025, the Board of Directors authorized and approved a further note repurchase program for up to $75.0 million of the currently outstanding 2028 Notes (the “March 2025 Authorization”).
During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company repurchased approximately $140.4 million of its 2028 Notes at a weighted average price of approximately 82.3% of par. The repurchase activity during the year ended December 31, 2024 exhausted the Q4 2023 Notes Repurchase Authorization and left approximately $9.6 million remaining under the June 2024 Authorization.

Table of Contents
During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company repurchased approximately $28.2 million of its 2028 Notes at a weighted average price of approximately 58.0% of par, resulting in a net gain on retirement of debt of approximately $11.6 million, exhausting the June 2024 Authorization and leaving $56.4 million remaining under the March 2025 Authorization.
See Note 15 - Subsequent Events of our condensed consolidated financial statements for additional debt repurchases subsequent to March 31, 2025.
The 2028 Notes had fair values of approximately $286.5 million and $341.5 million as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. The fair values of the 2028 Notes, classified as a Level 2 instrument, were determined based on the trading values of this instrument in an inactive market as of the reporting date.
Asset-Backed Credit Facilities
On February 19, 2021, the Company closed on its current asset backed credit facility (the “Current ABL Facility”). The Current ABL Facility is governed by a credit agreement by and among the Company, the other borrowers party thereto, the lenders party thereto from time to time and Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent. The Current ABL Facility provides for up to $50.0 million revolving loan borrowings in order to provide for the working capital needs and general corporate requirements of the Company. The Current ABL Facility also provides for a letter of credit facility up to $5.0 million as a part of the overall $50.0 million in capacity. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, there was no balance outstanding on the Current ABL Facility.
At the Company’s election, the interest rate on borrowings under the Current ABL Facility are based on either (i) the then applicable margin relative to Base Rate Loans (as defined in the Current ABL Facility) or (ii) until the Waiver and Amendment (as defined below) took effect, the then applicable margin relative to LIBOR Loans (as defined in the Current ABL Facility) corresponding to the average availability of the Company for the most recently completed fiscal quarter.
Advances under the Current ABL Facility are limited to (a) eighty-five percent (85%) of the amount of Eligible Accounts (as defined in the Current ABL Facility), less the amount, if any, of the Dilution Reserve (as defined in the Current ABL Facility), minus (b) the sum of (i) the Bank Product Reserve (as defined in the Current ABL Facility), plus (ii) the AP and Deferred Revenue Reserve (as defined in the Current ABL Facility), plus (iii) without duplication, the aggregate amount of all other reserves, if any, established by the Administrative Agent.
All obligations under the Current ABL Facility are secured by a first priority lien on all (i) deposit accounts (related to accounts receivable), (ii) accounts receivable, and (iii) all other property which constitutes ABL Priority Collateral (as defined in the Current ABL Facility). The obligations are also guaranteed by all material restricted subsidiaries of the Company. The Current ABL Facility includes a covenant requiring the Company’s fixed charge coverage ratio, as defined in the agreement, to not be less than 1.00 to 1.00. The Company is in compliance with its covenant as of March 31, 2025.
Additionally, under a Waiver and Amendment dated April 30, 2023, the Current ABL Facility was amended to provide that from and after the date thereof, any request for a new London Interbank Offer Rate, (“LIBOR Loan”) (as defined in the Current ABL Facility), for a continuation of an existing LIBOR Loan (as defined in the Current ABL Facility) or for a conversion of a Loan to a LIBOR Loan (as defined in the Current ABL Facility) shall be deemed to be a request for a loan bearing interest at Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate Data (“SOFR”) (as defined in the Amended Current ABL Facility) (the “SOFR Interest Rate Change”). As the Company was undrawn under the Current ABL Facility as of the date of the Waiver and Amendment, the SOFR Interest Rate Change would only bear upon future borrowings by the Company such that they bear an interest rate relating to the secured overnight financing rate. These provisions of the Waiver and Amendment are intended to transition loans under the Current ABL Facility to the new secured overnight financing rate as the benchmark rate.
The Current ABL Facility matures on the earlier to occur of: (a) the date that is five years from the effective date of the Current ABL Facility, and (b) 91 days prior to the maturity of the Company’s 2028 Notes.
The Current ABL Facility is subject to the terms of the Revolver Intercreditor Agreement (as defined in the Current ABL Facility) by and among the Administrative Agent and Wilmington Trust, National Association.

11. INCOME TAXES
The Company uses the estimated annual effective tax rate method under ASC 740-270, “Interim Reporting” to calculate the provision for income taxes. The Company recorded expense for income taxes of approximately $15.7 million on pre-tax income from consolidated operations of approximately $3.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. This results in an effective tax rate of approximately 399.5%, which includes approximately $14.6 million of discrete tax expense related to valuation allowance for net operating losses, and approximately $0.2 million of discrete tax expense related to stock-based compensation for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The estimated annual effective tax rate differs from the federal statutory tax rate of 21% primarily due to the impact of state taxes, non-deductible expenses, and the impact of the valuation allowance against disallowed interest expense and net operating losses.
In accordance with ASC 740, “Accounting for Income Taxes,” the Company continues to evaluate the realizability of its net deferred tax assets (“DTAs”) by assessing the future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company’s financial statements or tax returns, tax planning strategies, and future profitability. Management considers all available evidence, both negative and positive, that could impact the future realization of these DTAs including the continued impact of impairment charges on our operating results. As of March 31, 2025, the Company has a valuation allowance on its DTAs, most significantly its net operating losses and disallowed interest expense assets, after taking into consideration future taxable income from reversing deferred tax liabilities.
The Company is subject to continuous examination of the Company’s income tax returns by the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") and other domestic tax authorities. The Company believes that an adequate provision has been made for any adjustments that may result from tax examinations.

On February 21, 2025, our Board of Directors authorized a reverse stock split across all classes of the Company’s outstanding common stock. The Board's authorization is subject to the approval of the Company's stockholders and, upon approval by the stockholders, the ratio and timing will be determined by the Audit Committee of the Board. The Company currently anticipates submitting the matter for stockholder approval at the Company's 2025 annual meeting but also notes that the Company's majority stockholders may act by written consent. In its authorization, the Board reserved the right to abandon the reverse stock split, even if approved by the stockholders, if the Board, in its discretion, determines that the reverse stock split is no longer in the best interests of the Company or its stockholders.

Stock Repurchase Program
From time to time, the Company may repurchase its equity securities in open market purchases. Under open authorizations, repurchases of the Company's equity securities may be made from time to time in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. Repurchased equity securities are retired when repurchased. The timing and extent of any repurchases will depend upon prevailing market conditions, the trading price of the Company’s outstanding equity securities and other factors, and subject to restrictions under applicable law.
On September 27, 2022, the Compensation Committee authorized the repurchase of up to $0.5 million worth of shares in the aggregate from employees who want to sell in connection with the Company’s most recent employee stock grant (the "Employee Stock Repurchase Authorization"). During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company did not repurchase any shares of Class A common stock under the Stock Grant Authorization. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company repurchased 98,976 shares of Class D Common Stock for approximately $0.1 million at an average price of $0.98 per share. After giving effect to the above transactions, the repurchase program has approximately $0.1 million remaining under the Employee Stock Repurchase Authorization.
On June 10, 2024, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a share repurchase authorization to repurchase up to $20.0 million of the Company's outstanding Class A and/or Class D common stock (collectively, the “2024 Stock Repurchase Program”). The 2024 Stock Repurchase Program will remain in effect for up to 24 months or until the authorization is exhausted.
The following table details our stock repurchases under the 2024 Stock Repurchase Program during the three months ended March 31, 2025:

| Class A |  | Class D
Shares of common stock repurchased | 449,252 |  |  | 204,646 |
Average price paid per share | $ | 1.48 |  |  | $ | 0.82 |
Total cost | $ | 665,829 |  |  | $ | 167,493 |

After giving effect to the above transaction and prior activity, the 2024 Stock Repurchase Program has approximately $12.7 million remaining under the authorization.
See Note 15 - Subsequent Events of our condensed consolidated financial statements for additional purchases subsequent to March 31, 2025.
Stock Option and Restricted Stock Grant Plan
The 2019 Equity and Performance Incentive Plan is an equity performance incentive plan for stock options and restricted stock. Both Class A and Class D common stock are available for grant. The Company settles stock options, net of tax, upon exercise by issuing stock.
On October 1, 2024, the Company held its 2024 Annual Stockholders meeting. At that meeting, the stockholders approved a second amendment and restatement (the "2024 Second Incentive Plan Amendment and Restatement") of the Urban One 2019 Equity and Performance Incentive Plan (the "2019 Plan") to (i) correct a typographical error with respect to the duration of options and (ii) increase the number of Class A and Class D shares available for issuance. The 2024 Second Incentive Plan Amendment and Restatement was approved and, as a result, 750,000 shares of Class A common stock and 7,000,000 shares of Class D common stock were added to the 2019 Plan. The total number of shares authorized for issuance under the 2019 Incentive Plan, giving effect to its original authorization of 5,500,000 Class D Shares, the first amendment and restatement in 2021 with its 2,000,000 Class A Shares and 5,519,575 Class D Shares and the 2024 Second Incentive Plan Amendment and Restatement is (i) 750,000 shares of the Company's Class A common stock and (ii) 18,019,575 shares of the Company's Class D common stock. After giving effect to the 2024 Second Incentive Plan Amendment and Restatement 2,000,000 shares of the Company's Class A common stock are ungranted and in reserve and (ii) 7,000,000 shares of the Company's Class D common stock are ungranted and in reserve under the 2019 Plan. As of March 31, 2025, the Company had 6,570,707 shares available to grant under the 2024 Second Incentive Plan Amendment and Restatement.

This amount changes based on the fair market value of the Company’s stock.
As of March 31, 2025, approximately $0.2 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to Class D stock options is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 5 months. The weighted-average grant date fair value of options granted during the three months ended March 31, 2025 was $0.60.
The Company did not grant any options to purchase shares of Class A common stock during the three months ended March 31, 2025.

Restricted stock grants for Class A and Class D shares are included in the Company’s outstanding share numbers on the effective date of grant. As of March 31, 2025, approximately $0.6 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to awards of restricted Class D common stock is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 6 months.
13. SEGMENT INFORMATION
Reportable segments represent components of a company for which separate financial information is available that is regularly reviewed by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), which is our President and Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), in determining how to allocate resources and assess performance. Our four reportable segments include the following:
25

Table of Contents
(i) Radio Broadcasting consists of all radio broadcast results of operations as well as low powered television operations.
(ii) Reach Media consists of the results of operations for the related activities and operations of the Company’s syndicated radio shows.
(iii) Digital includes the results of the Company’s online business, including the operations of Interactive One, as well as the digital components of the Company’s other reportable segments.
(iv) Cable Television includes the results of operations of TV One and CLEO TV.
Effective January 1, 2025, the Company modified the composition of two of our reportable segments to reflect changes in how they operate their business. The Company transferred the CTV offering within our Digital segment to our Cable Television segment. This change aligns the CTV offering with the results of operations within our Cable Television segment. Prior period Cable Television and Digital segment information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q has been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. In addition, prior period segment information has been recast between the Sales and marketing and the General and administrative significant segment expenses across the four segments to conform the presentation of significant segment expenses used to evaluate segment performance by the CODM.
In addition to the reportable segments above, the Company has a "corporate/eliminations/other” category that includes business activities not directly attributable to a specific reportable segment. These four segments operate in the United States and are consistently aligned with the Company’s management of its businesses and its financial reporting structure.
In the ordinary course of business, our reportable segments enter into transactions with one another. While intercompany transactions are treated like third-party transactions to determine segment performance, the revenues and expenses recognized by the segment that is counterparty to the transaction are eliminated in consolidation and do not affect consolidated results.
This segment structure reflects the financial information and reports used by the Company’s management, specifically its CODM, who is responsible for reviewing segment performance and making decisions regarding resource allocations, performance assessments, as well as our current operating focus. Asset and asset related information are not key measures used by the CODM. The CODM does not regularly receive or review information pertaining to assets by segments or in totality.
The Company evaluates the operating performance of its reportable segments based on financial measures such as segment net revenue and Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure. The CODM evaluates each segment’s performance based on Adjusted EBITDA, guiding strategic decisions to align with company-wide goals, assessing the operating results and performance of the segments, identifying strategies to improve performance, and allocating resources to each segment. Adjusted EBITDA is used to facilitate a comparison of the ordinary, ongoing and customary course of our operations on a consistent basis from period to period and provide an additional understanding of factors and trends affecting our business segments. Significant segment expenses provided to the CODM and included within Adjusted EBITDA include programming and technical, sales and marketing, and general and administrative. Prior year information was revised to reflect Adjusted EBITDA as the segment profit measure.

Radio Broadcasting Licenses
Each of the Company’s radio stations operates pursuant to one or more licenses issued by the FCC that have a maximum term of eight years prior to renewal. The Company’s radio broadcasting licenses expire at various times beginning in October 2027 through August 2030. Although the Company may apply to renew its radio broadcasting licenses, third parties may challenge the Company’s renewal applications. The Company is not aware of any facts or circumstances that would prevent the Company from having its current licenses renewed. A station may continue to operate beyond the expiration date of its license if a timely filed license renewal application is filed and is pending.

Royalty Agreements
Musical works rights holders, songwriters and music publishers, have been traditionally represented by performing rights organizations, such as the American Society of Composers Authors and Publishers (“ASCAP”), Broadcast Music, Inc. (“BMI”) and SESAC, Inc. (“SESAC”). The market for rights relating to musical works is changing rapidly. Songwriters and music publishers have withdrawn from the traditional performing rights organizations (“PRO”), particularly ASCAP and BMI, and new entities, such as Global Music Rights Inc. (“GMR”), have been formed to represent rights holders. These organizations negotiate fees with copyright users, collect royalties and distribute them to the rights holders. These licenses periodically come up for renewal and, as a result, certain of the Company’s PRO licenses are currently the subject of renewal negotiations. The outcome of these renewal negotiations could impact, and potentially increase, the Company’s music license fees. In addition, there is no guarantee that additional PROs will not emerge, which could impact, and in some circumstances increase, the Company’s royalty rates and negotiation costs.
The Radio Music Licensing Committee (“RMLC”), of which the Company is a represented participant has negotiated and entered into, on behalf of participating members, an Interim License Agreement with ASCAP effective January 1, 2022 and to remain in effect until the date on which the parties reach agreement as to, or there is court determination of, new interim or final fees, terms, and conditions of a new license for the five year period commencing on January 1, 2022 and concluding on December 31, 2026. On February 7, 2022, the RMLC and GMR reached a settlement and achieved certain conditions which effectuate a four-year license to which the Company is a party for the period April 1, 2022 to March 31, 2026. The license includes an optional three-year extended term that the Company may effectuate prior to the end of the initial term.
On November 1, 2024, RMLC announced that it had won a ruling in its rate determination proceedings with SESAC with respect to fees paid by RMLC-represented stations. The determination sets the rates for the period January 1, 2023, through December 31, 2026, and is retroactive in its application. RMLC-Represented Stations that have paid SESAC interim license fees at higher previous rates may receive a true-up adjustment in order to bring rates into conformity with the now-final rates. This ruling did not have a material impact on the Company's operations. The RMLC is currently negotiating with BMI.
Reach Media Redeemable Non-controlling Interests
Beginning on January 1, 2018, the non-controlling interest shareholders of Reach Media have had an annual right to require Reach Media to purchase all or a portion of their shares at the then current fair market value for such shares (the “Put Right”). This annual right is exercisable for a 30-day period beginning January 1 of each year. The purchase price for such shares may be paid in cash and/or registered Class D common stock of Urban One, at the discretion of Urban One. The non-controlling interest shareholders of Reach Media exercised 50% of their Put Right on January 26, 2024. On March 8, 2024, Reach Media closed on the Put Interest increasing the Company’s interest in Reach Media to approximately 90% and decreasing the interest of the non-controlling interest shareholders from approximately 20% to approximately 10%. Reach Media paid the non-controlling interest shareholders approximately $7.6 million for the 10% interest. On February 14, 2025, certain non-controlling interest shareholders of Reach Media exercised their annual Put Right for approximately $3.2 million, increasing the Company’s interest in Reach Media to approximately 94.6% and decreasing the interest of the non-controlling interest shareholders from approximately 10.0% to approximately 5.4%.
Management, at this time, cannot reasonably determine the period when and if the remaining portion of the Put Right will be exercised by the non-controlling interest shareholders.
Other Contingencies
On March 18, 2025, the Company entered into an operating lease for office space with a total minimum future lease payments of $7.4 million. This operating lease commenced in the first quarter of 2025 and has a term of eight years, subject to early termination provision.
The Company has been named as a defendant in several legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. It is management’s opinion, after consultation with its legal counsel, that the outcome of these claims will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

On March 16, 2025, the Company began investigating an incident involving an unauthorized third party who had gained access to the Company’s IT systems on or around February 10, 2025, and exfiltrated certain information from our information technology systems. Upon discovery, the Company activated our incident response team, comprised of internal personnel and external cybersecurity experts. The investigation of the incident response team and related remediation is ongoing. The Company is actively conducting forensic analysis and reviewing the information accessed to determine the nature and extent of the incident. As of the date of this filing, the incident has not impacted the Company’s operations or ability to conduct business in the ordinary course. Based on the information currently known at this time, the Company does not expect the incident to have a material impact on its business, operations, ability to serve its customers, or financial results. The Company carries insurance, including cyber insurance, commensurate with its size and the nature of its operations. Because of the preliminary nature of the investigation into this incident, the Company is unable to reasonably estimate the potential costs, including remediation and other expenses related to this incident.
15. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Since April 1, 2025, and through the date of this filing, the Company repurchased approximately $60.4 million of its 2028 Notes at an average price of approximately 52.0% of par.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Introduction
Revenue
Within our core radio business, we primarily derive revenue from the sale of advertising time and program sponsorships to local and national advertisers on our radio stations. Advertising revenue is affected primarily by the advertising rates our radio stations are able to charge, as well as the overall demand for radio advertising time in a market. These rates are largely based upon a radio station’s audience share in the demographic groups targeted by advertisers, the number of radio stations in the related market, and the supply of, and demand for, radio advertising time. Advertising rates are generally highest during morning and afternoon commuting hours.
Net revenue consists of gross revenue, net of local and national agency and outside sales representative commissions. Agency and outside sales representative commissions are calculated based on a stated percentage applied to gross billing.
The following table shows the percentage of consolidated net revenue generated by each reporting segment.

| Three Months Ended March 31, |  |
| 2025 |  | 2024 |  |  |  |
Radio Broadcasting segment | 35.4% |  | 34.8% |  |  |  |
Reach Media segment | 6.3% |  | 8.1% |  |  |  |
Digital segment(1) | 11.1% |  | 11.7% |  |  |  |
Cable Television segment(1) | 47.9% |  | 46.0% |  |  |  |
All other - corporate/eliminations | (0.7)% |  | (0.6) | % |  |  |  |

(1) Effective January 1, 2025, segment information for the prior periods has been recast in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to include reclassification of a portion of revenues from our CTV offering from the Digital segment to the Cable Television segment.
The following table shows the percentages generated from local and national advertising as a subset of net revenue from our core radio business.

| Three Months Ended March 31, |  |
| 2025 |  | 2024 |  |  |  |
Percentage of core radio business generated from local advertising | 66.1% |  | 65.3% |  |  |  |
Percentage of core radio business generated from national advertising, including network advertising | 29.6% |  | 30.7% |  |  |  |

National and local advertising also includes advertising revenue generated from our Digital segment and low power television revenue. The balance of net revenue from our Radio Broadcasting segment is generated from ticket sales and revenue related to our sponsored events, management fees and other revenue.

In the Broadcasting industry, radio stations and television stations often utilize trade or barter agreements to reduce cash expenses by exchanging advertising time for goods or services. In order to maximize cash revenue for our spot inventory, we closely manage the use of trade and barter agreements.
Reach Media primarily derives its revenue from the sale of advertising in connection with its syndicated radio shows, including the Rickey Smiley Morning Show and the DL Hughley Show. Reach Media also operates www.BlackAmericaWeb.com, an African-American targeted news and entertainment website, in addition to providing various other event-related activities.
Within our Digital segment, Interactive One generates the majority of the Company’s digital revenue. Our digital revenue is principally derived from advertising services on non-radio station branded, but Company-owned websites. Advertising services include the sale of banner and sponsorship advertisements. As the Company runs its advertising campaigns, the customer simultaneously receives benefits as impressions are delivered, and revenue is recognized. The amount of revenue recognized each month is based on the number of impressions delivered multiplied by the effective per impression unit price and is equal to the net amount receivable from the customer.
Our Cable Television segment generates the Company’s cable television revenue and derives its revenue principally from advertising and affiliate revenue. Advertising revenue is derived from the sale of television airtime to advertisers and is recognized when the advertisements are run. Our Cable Television segment also derives revenue from affiliate fees under the terms of various multi-year affiliation agreements generally based on a per subscriber royalty for the right to distribute the Company’s programming under the terms of the distribution contracts.
Expenses
Our significant expenses are: (i) employee salaries and commissions; (ii) programming expenses; (iii) marketing and promotional expenses; (iv) rental of premises for office facilities and studios; (v) rental of transmission tower space; (vi) music license royalty fees; and (vii) content amortization. We strive to control these expenses by centralizing certain functions such as finance, accounting, legal, human resources, and management information systems and, in certain markets, the programming management function. We also use our multiple stations, market presence and purchasing power to negotiate favorable rates with certain vendors and national representative selling agencies. In addition to salaries and commissions, major expenses for our internet business include membership traffic acquisition costs, software product design, post-application software development and maintenance, database and server support costs, the help desk function, data center expenses connected with internet service provider (“ISP”) hosting services and other internet content delivery expenses. Major expenses for our Cable Television segment include content acquisition and amortization, sales, and marketing.
32

Table of Contents
We generally incur marketing and promotional expenses to increase and maintain our audiences. However, because Nielsen reports ratings either monthly or quarterly, depending on the particular market, any changed ratings and the effect on advertising revenue tends to lag behind both the reporting of the ratings and the incurrence of advertising and promotional expenditures.

Net revenue

Three Months Ended March 31, |  | Change |
2025 |  | 2024 |  |  |  |  |
$ | 92,235 |  | $ | 104,410 |  | $ | (12,175) |  |  | (11.7) | % |

During the three months ended March 31, 2025, we recognized approximately $92.2 million in net revenue compared to approximately $104.4 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024. These amounts are net of agency and outside sales representative commissions. We recognized approximately $32.6 million of revenue from our Radio Broadcasting segment during the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to approximately $36.4 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024, a decrease of approximately $3.8 million. This decrease was primarily driven by weaker overall market demand from the national advertisers and lower political revenues. We recognized approximately $5.9 million of rev enue from our Reach Media segment during the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to approximately $8.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, a decrease of approximately $2.6 million. This decrease was primarily driven by the decrease in overall demand and attrition of advertisers. We recognized approximately $10.2 million of revenue from our Digital segment during the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to approximately $12.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, a decrease of approximately $2.0 million. This decrease was primarily driven by the decrease in national digital sales offset by increase in podcast revenue. We recognized approximately $44.2 million of revenue from our Cable Television segment during the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to approximately $48.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, a decrease of approximately $3.8 million. This decrease was primarily driven by the churn of subscribers.

$ | 30,598 |  | $ | 32,659 |  | $ | (2,061) |  |  | (6.3) | % |

Programming and technical expenses include expenses associated with on-air talent and the management and maintenance of the systems, tower facilities, and studios used in the creation, distribution, and broadcast of programming content on our radio stations. Programming and technical expenses for the Radio Broadcasting segment also include expenses associated with our programming research activities and music royalties. For our Digital segment, programming and technical expenses include software product design, post-application software development and maintenance, database and server support costs, the help desk function, data center expenses connected with ISP hosting services and other internet content delivery expenses. For our Cable Television segment, programming and technical expenses include expenses associated with technical, programming, production, and content management. Programming and technical expenses were approximately $30.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to $32.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, respectively. This decrease was mainly driven by our Cable Television and Digital segments with small decreases attributable to our Radio Broadcasting and Reach Media segments. For our Cable Television segment, the $1.7 million decrease was mainly due to lower program production cost partially offset by higher programming cost. The $0.3 million decrease in our Digital segment was due to lower headcount.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The presentation of non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation from, as a substitute for, or superior to the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). We use non-GAAP financial measures including broadcast and digital operating income and Adjusted EBITDA as additional means to evaluate our business and operating results through period-to-period comparisons. Reconciliations of our non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included below for review. Reliance should not be placed on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.
Measurement of Performance
We monitor and evaluate the growth and operational performance of our business using net (loss) income and the following key metrics:
(a)Net revenue: The performance of an individual radio station or group of radio stations in a particular market is customarily measured by its ability to generate net revenue. Net revenue consists of gross revenue, net of local and national agency and outside sales representative commissions consistent with industry practice. Net revenue is recognized in the period in which advertisements are broadcast. Net revenue also includes advertising aired in exchange for goods and services, which is recorded at fair value, revenue from sponsored events and other revenue. Net revenue is recognized for our online business as impressions are delivered. Net revenue is recognized for our Cable Television segment as advertisements are run or impressions delivered, and during the term of the affiliation agreements at levels appropriate for the most recent subscriber counts reported by the affiliate, net of launch support.
(b)Broadcast and digital operating income: The Radio Broadcasting industry commonly refers to “station operating income” which consists of net (loss) income before depreciation and amortization, income taxes, interest expense, interest and investment income, non-controlling interests in income of subsidiaries, other income, net, loss from unconsolidated joint venture, corporate selling, general and administrative expenses, stock-based compensation, impairment of intangible assets, and (gain) loss on retirement of debt. However, given the diverse nature of our business, station operating income is not truly reflective of our multi-media operation and, therefore, we use the term “broadcast and digital operating income.” Broadcast and digital operating income is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP. Nevertheless, broadcast and digital operating income is a significant measure used by our management to evaluate the operating performance of our core operating segments. Broadcast and digital operating income provides helpful information about our results of operations, apart from expenses associated with our fixed assets and goodwill and intangible assets, income taxes, investments, impairment charges, debt financings and retirements, corporate overhead, and stock-based compensation. Our measure of broadcast and digital operating income is similar to industry use of station operating income; however, it reflects our more diverse business and therefore is not completely analogous to “station operating income” or other similarly titled measures as used by other companies. Broadcast and digital operating income does not represent operating income or loss, or cash flow from operating activities, as those terms are defined under GAAP, and should not be considered as an alternative to those measurements as an indicator of our performance.
Broadcast and digital operating income decreased to approximately $23.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to approximately $32.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, a decrease of approximately $9.0 million or 28.1%. This decrease was primarily due to lower broadcast and digital operating income at all segments but our Cable Television segment. Our Digital segment generated approximately $0.1 million of broadcast and digital operating income during the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to approximately $3.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024, primarily due to lower revenues and higher selling, general and administrative expenses offset by lower programming and technical costs. Reach Media generated approximately $0.7 million of broadcast and digital operating income during the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to approximately $2.5 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024, primarily due to lower revenues offset by lower expenses. Our Radio Broadcasting segment generated approximately $2.7 million of broadcast and digital operating income during the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to approximately $6.6 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024, primarily due to lower revenues offset by lower expenses. Finally, Cable Television generated approximately $18.6 million of broadcast and digital operating income during the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to approximately $19.5 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024. The increase in the Cable Television segment’s broadcast and digital operating income was primarily due to lower expenses offset by lower net revenues.

(c)Adjusted EBITDA: Adjusted EBITDA consists of net (loss) income plus (1) depreciation and amortization, income taxes, interest expense, net income attributable to non-controlling interests, impairment of intangible assets, stock-based compensation, (gain) loss on retirement of debt, corporate development costs, severance-related costs, investment income, loss from unconsolidated joint venture, loss from ceased non-core business initiatives less (2) othe r income, net and interest and investment income. Net (loss) income before interest income, interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization is commonly referred to in our business as “EBITDA.” Adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA are not measures of financial performance under GAAP. We believe Adjusted EBITDA is often a useful measure of a company’s operating performance and is a significant measure used by our management to evaluate the operating performance of our business. Accordingly, based on the previous description of Adjusted EBITDA, we believe that it provides useful information about the operating performance of our business, apart from the expenses associated with our fixed assets and goodwill and intangible assets, or capital structure. Adjusted EBITDA is frequently used as one of the measures for comparing businesses in the broadcasting industry, although our measure of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, including, but not limited to the fact that our definition includes the results of all four of our operating segments (Radio Broadcasting, Reach Media, Digital and Cable Television). Business activities unrelated to these four segments are included in "Corporate/Eliminations/ Other" line item in the reconciliation to the pre-tax income. Adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA do not purport to represent operating income or cash flow from operating activities, as those terms are defined under GAAP, and should not be considered as alternatives to those measurements as an indicator of our performance.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Our primary source of liquidity is cash provided by operations and, to the extent necessary, borrowings available under our asset-backed credit facility. Our cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash balance was approximately $115.6 million as of March 31, 2025. As of March 31, 2025, there were no borrowings outstanding on the Current ABL Facility (as defined below) which has $50.0 million in overall capacity.
The Company regularly considers the impact of macroeconomic conditions on our business. Uncertainty in the macroeconomic environment with newly implemented tariffs, continued increases in inflation and interest rates, along with banking volatility, may have an adverse effect on our revenues.
From time to time, the Company may repurchase its outstanding debt and/or equity securities in open market purchases. Under open authorizations, repurchases of our outstanding debt and/or equity securities may be made from time to time in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. Repurchased debt and equity securities are retired when repurchased. The timing and extent of any repurchases will depend upon prevailing market conditions, the trading price of the Company’s outstanding debt and/or equity securities and other factors, and subject to restrictions under applicable law.
On September 27, 2022, the Compensation Committee authorized the repurchase of up to approximately $0.5 million (the “Employee Stock Repurchase Authorization”) worth of shares in the aggregate from employees who want to sell in connection with the Company’s most recent employee stock grant. During the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company did not repurchase any shares of Class A stock in connection with the Employee Stock Repurchase Authorization. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company repurchased 98,976 shares of Class D stock under the Employee Stock Repurchase Authorization at an average price of $0.98 for a total amount of approximately $0.1 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company repurchased 25,285 shares of Class D stock under the authorization at an average price of $3.76 for a total amount of approximately $0.1 million. The Company has approximately $0.1 million remaining under the Employee Stock Repurchase Authorization.
In addition, the Company has limited but ongoing authority to purchase shares of Class D common stock (in one or more transactions at any time there remain outstanding grants) under the 2019 Equity and Performance Incentive Plan. This limited authority is used to satisfy any employee or other recipient tax obligations in connection with the exercise of an option or a share grant under the 2019 Equity and Performance Incentive Plan, to the extent that the Company has capacity under its financing agreements (i.e., its current credit facilities and indentures) (each a “Stock Vest Tax Repurchase”).
On June 10, 2024, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a share repurchase authorization to repurchase up to $20.0 million of the Company's outstanding Class A and/or Class D common stock (collectively, the “2024 Stock Repurchase Program”).

On January 25, 2021, the Company closed on an offering (the “2028 Notes”) of $825.0 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2028 Notes in a private offering exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The 2028 Notes are general senior secured obligations of the Company and are guaranteed on a senior secured basis by certain of the Company’s direct and indirect restricted subsidiaries. The 2028 Notes mature on February 1, 2028, and interest on the Notes accrues and is payable semi-annually in arrears on February 1 and August 1 of each year, commencing on August 1, 2021 at the rate of 7.375% per annum.
The 2028 Notes Offering and the guarantees are secured, subject to permitted liens and except for certain excluded assets (i) on a first priority basis by substantially all of the Company’s and the guarantors’ current and future property and assets (other than accounts receivable, cash, deposit accounts, other bank accounts, securities accounts, inventory and related assets that secure our asset-backed revolving credit facility on a first priority basis (the “ABL Priority Collateral”), including the capital stock of each guarantor (collectively, the “Notes Priority Collateral”) and (ii) on a second priority basis by the ABL Priority Collateral.
During the three months ended March 31, 2025 the Company repurchased approximately $28.2 million of its 2028 Notes at an average price of approximately 58.0% of par, resulting in a net gain on retirement of debt of approximately $11.6 million. There is approximately $56.4 million remaining under the March 2025 Authorization as defined in Note 10 – Long-Term Debt of our condensed consolidated financial statements. During the three months March 31, 2024, the Company repurchased approximately $75.0 million of its 2028 Notes at an average price of approximately 88.3% of par, resulting in a net gain on retirement of debt of approximately $7.9 million. As of March 31, 2025, the total aggregate principal amount of the senior secured notes due 2028 is $556.3 million.
On February 19, 2021, the Company closed on an asset backed credit facility (the “Current ABL Facility”). The Current ABL Facility is governed by a credit agreement by and among the Company, the other borrowers party thereto, the lenders party thereto from time to time and Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent. The Current ABL Facility provides for up to $50.0 million revolving loan borrowings in order to provide for the working capital needs and general corporate requirements of the Company. The Current ABL Facility also provides for a letter of credit facility up to $5.0 million as a part of the overall $50.0 million in capacity. As of March 31, 2025, there was no balance outstanding on the Current ABL Facility.
At the Company’s election, the interest rate on borrowings under the Current ABL Facility are based on either (i) the then applicable margin relative to Base Rate Loans (as defined in the Current ABL Facility) or (ii) until the Waiver and Amendment (as defined below) took effect, the then applicable margin relative to LIBOR Loans (as defined in the Current ABL Facility) corresponding to the average availability of the Company for the most recently completed fiscal quarter.
On April 30, 2023, the Company entered into a waiver and amendment (the “Waiver and Amendment”) to the Current ABL Facility. The Waiver and Amendment waived certain events of default under the Current ABL Facility related to the Company’s failure to timely deliver certain Annual Financial Deliverables for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. Additionally, under the Waiver and Amendment, the Current ABL Facility was amended to provide that from and after the date thereof, any request for a new LIBOR Loan (as defined in the Current ABL Facility), for a continuation of an existing LIBOR Loan (as defined in the Current ABL Facility) or for a conversion of a Loan to a LIBOR Loan (as defined in the Current ABL Facility) shall be deemed to be a request for a loan bearing interest at Term SOFR (as defined in the Amended Current ABL Facility) (the “SOFR Interest Rate Change”).
As the Company was undrawn under the Current ABL Facility as of the date of the Waiver and Amendment, the SOFR Interest Rate Change would only bear upon future borrowings by the Company such that they bear an interest rate relating to the secured overnight financing rate. These provisions of the Waiver and Amendment are intended to transition loans under the Current ABL Facility to the new secured overnight financing rate as the benchmark rate.
Advances under the Current ABL Facility are limited to (a) eighty-five percent (85%) of the amount of Eligible Accounts (as defined in the Current ABL Facility), less the amount, if any, of the Dilution Reserve (as defined in the Current ABL Facility), minus (b) the sum of (i) the Bank Product Reserve (as defined in the Current ABL Facility), plus (ii) the AP and Deferred Revenue Reserve (as defined in the Current ABL Facility), plus (iii) without duplication, the aggregate amount of all other reserves, if any, established by the Administrative Agent.

All obligations under the Current ABL Facility are secured by a first priority lien on all (i) deposit accounts (related to accounts receivable), (ii) accounts receivable, and (iii) all other property which constitutes ABL Priority Collateral (as defined in the Current ABL Facility). The obligations are also guaranteed by all material restricted subsidiaries of the Company.
The Current ABL Facility matures on the earlier to occur of: (a) the date that is five years from the effective date of the Current ABL Facility, and (b) 91 days prior to the maturity of the Company’s 2028 Notes. The Current ABL Facility is subject to the terms of the Revolver Intercreditor Agreement (as defined in the Current ABL Facility) by and among the Administrative Agent and Wilmington Trust, National Association.
The following table provides a summary of our statements of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2025, and 2024, respectively:

| Three Months Ended March 31,
| 2025 |  | 2024
| (In thousands)
Net cash flows provided by (used in) operating activities | $ | 2,085 |  |  | $ | (2,477) |
Net cash flows (used in) provided by investing activities | (2,547) |  |  | 406 |
Net cash flows used in financing activities | (21,544) |  |  | (75,753) |

Net cash flows provided by (used in) operating activities were approximately $2.1 million and $(2.5) million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, and 2024, respectively. Net cash flow from operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2025 increased from the prior year primarily due to increased collection of accounts receivable and lower payments for content, offset by the decrease in reserve for audience deficiency.
Cash flows from operations, cash and cash equivalents, and other sources of liquidity are expected to be available and sufficient to meet foreseeable cash requirements.
Net cash flows (used in) provided by investing activities were approximately $(2.5) million and $0.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, and 2024, respectively. Net cash flows (used in) investing activities primarily increased from prior year due to an increase in capital expenditures, offset by the cash receipts on disposition of station for $2.0 million.
Net cash flows used in financing activities were approximately $21.5 million and $75.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, and 2024, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, and 2024, we paid approximately $16.4 million and $66.2 million, respectively, to repurchase approximately $28.2 million and $75.0 million of our 2028 Notes. We repurchased approximately $1.0 million of our Class A and D Common Stock during the three months ended March 31, 2025. We repurchased approximately $1.4 million of our Class A and D Common Stock during the three months ended March 31, 2024. In addition, certain non-controlling interest shareholders of Reach Media exercised their annual Put Right on February 14, 2025 for $3.2 million, which resulted in an increase of the Company’s interest in Reach Media to 94.6% and decreasing the interest of the non-controlling interest shareholders from 10.0% to 5.4%. Finally, Reach Media paid approximately $0.9 million and $1.8 million in dividends to non-controlling interest shareholders during the three months ended March 31, 2025, and 2024, respectively.
Credit Rating Agencies
On a continuing basis, Standard and Poor’s, Moody’s Investor Services, and other rating agencies may evaluate our indebtedness in order to assign a credit rating. Our corporate credit ratings by Standard & Poor's Rating Services and Moody's Investors Service are speculative-grade and have been downgraded and upgraded at various times during the last several years. Any reductions in our credit ratings could increase our borrowing costs, reduce the availability of financing to us or increase our cost of doing business or otherwise negatively impact our business operations.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
Our critical accounting estimates are described in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, under the heading Part II - Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting estimates from those presented in our Form 10-K.
Radio Broadcasting Licenses
As of March 31, 2025, projected gross market revenues and operating profit margin declined creating a triggering event indicating that the fair value of the Company’s radio broadcasting licenses were more likely than not to be less than its carrying value.
To determine the fair value of the broadcasting licenses, the Company utilized the income approach which values a license by calculating the value of a hypothetical startup company that initially has no assets except the asset to be valued (the broadcasting license). The Company performed a discounted cash flow analysis for broadcasting licenses across relevant radio markets. The key assumptions used in the discounted cash flow analysis for broadcasting licenses include market revenue and projected revenue growth by market, mature market share, operating profit margin, terminal growth rate, and discount rate.
Based on this analysis, the Company recognized an impairment loss of approximately $6.4 million associated with five radio markets within the Radio Broadcasting segment, included in impairment of intangible assets, on the condensed consolidated statement of operations during the three months ended March 31, 2025.
Below are the key assumptions used in the income approach model for estimating the fair value of the broadcasting licenses for the five largest radio markets in the most recent interim impairment assessment performed as of March 31, 2025. The aggregate impairment recorded for the remaining markets was less than $1.0 million and the key assumptions are not presented for those markets.

Market |  |  |  |  |  | Discount Rate |  | Revenue Growth Rate |  | Terminal Growth Rate |  | Mature Market Share |  | Operating Profit Margin
1 |  |  |  |  |  | 9.5% |  | (1.5)%- 0.1% |  | (0.5)% |  | 2.5% - 15.0% |  | 5.0% - 30.0%
2 |  |  |  |  |  | 9.5% |  | (1.6)% - 0.0% |  | (0.5)% |  | 0.8% - 5.0% |  | 3.0% - 18.0%
3 |  |  |  |  |  | 9.5% |  | (1.8)% - (0.1)% |  | (0.5)% |  | 3.7% - 22.0% |  | 5.0% - 30.0%
4 |  |  |  |  |  | 9.5% |  | (1.9)% - (0.4)% |  | (0.5)% |  | 5.0% - 30.0% |  | 2.8% - 17.0%
5 |  |  |  |  |  | 9.5% |  | (1.9)% - (0.2)% |  | (0.5)% |  | 2.3% - 14.0% |  | 3.3% - 20.0%

Table of Contents
To the extent that there is a potential recession that further disrupts the economic environment impacting the financial performance, market share, or changes in interest rates, these events could negatively affect the key assumptions and result in significantly lower fair value of the broadcasting licenses. Additionally, given limited differences between assessed fair values of each radio broadcasting license and their current carrying value in the quarter ended March 31, 2025, continued declining market share, revenues, growth rates, or changes in the discount rate in applicable radio markets may lead to subsequent impairment.
The following table presents sensitivity analyses for radio broadcasting licenses and goodwill of reporting units within the Radio Broadcasting segment showing the impact on our most recent quantitative impairment assessment resulting from: (i) a 100 basis point decrease in industry or reporting unit terminal growth rates; (ii) a 100 basis point decrease in operating profit margins; (iii) a 100 basis point increase in the discount rate; and (iv) both a 5.0% and 10.0% reduction in the fair values of broadcasting licenses.

See Note 9 – Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets of our condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion.
TV One Trade Name
Due to industry and macro-economic conditions along with ongoing subscriber churn, and forecasted cash flows for TV One, the Company reassessed the useful life for the TV One Trade Name. As a result of the reassessment, the Company concluded the useful life should change from indefinite-lived to a definite-lived intangible asset effective January 1, 2025, and the Company has adopted an accelerated amortization method and will amortize this asset with a carrying value of $26.6 million over a 20-year period. This was considered a change in estimate, was accounted for prospectively, and resulted in amortization expense of $0.6 million included in depreciation and amortization, on the condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2025.
Goodwill
As of March 31, 2025 the Company performed a qualitative assessment at all of the radio broadcasting reporting units that contain goodwill. Based on the qualitative impairment assessment performed, no goodwill impairment losses were recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

Fair Value Measurements
The Company estimated the fair value of the Employment Agreement Award as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, at approximately $11.1 million and $10.4 million, respectively, and, accordingly, adjusted the liability to that amount. The fair value estimate incorporated a number of assumptions and estimates, including but not limited to revenue growth rates, future operating profit margins, discount rate, peer companies, average recurring EBITDA multiples and weighting of the income and market approach. As the Company will measure changes in the fair value of this award at each reporting period as warranted by certain circumstances, different estimates or assumptions may result in a change to the fair value of the award amount previously recorded.
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
See Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies of our condensed consolidated financial statements for a summary of recent accounting pronouncements.
CAPITAL AND COMMERCIAL COMMITMENTS
Radio Broadcasting Licenses
Each of the Company’s radio stations operates pursuant to one or more licenses issued by the Federal Communications Commission that have a maximum term of eight years prior to renewal. The Company’s radio broadcasting licenses expire at various times beginning in October 2027, through August 2030. Although the Company may apply to renew its radio broadcasting licenses, third parties may challenge the Company’s renewal applications. The Company is not aware of any facts or circumstances that would prevent the Company from having its current licenses renewed. A station may continue to operate beyond the expiration date of its license if a timely filed license renewal application was filed and is pending.
Indebtedness
As of March 31, 2025, we had approximately $556.3 million of our 2028 Notes outstanding within our corporate structure. See Note 10 - Long-Term Debt of our condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company had no other indebtedness.
Royalty Agreements
Musical works rights holders, songwriters and music publishers, have been traditionally represented by performing rights organizations, such as the American Society of Composers Authors and Publishers (“ASCAP”), Broadcast Music, Inc. (“BMI”) and SESAC, Inc. (“SESAC”). The market for rights relating to musical works is changing rapidly. Songwriters and music publishers have withdrawn from the traditional performing rights organizations, particularly ASCAP and BMI, and new entities, such as Global Music Rights Inc. ("GMR"), have been formed to represent rights holders. These organizations negotiate fees with copyright users, collect royalties and distribute them to the rights holders. These licenses periodically come up for renewal and, as a result, certain of our performing rights organizations (“PRO”) licenses are currently the subject of renewal negotiations. The outcome of these renewal negotiations could impact, and potentially increase, our music license fees. In addition, there is no guarantee that additional PRO's will not emerge, which could impact, and in some circumstances increase, our royalty rates and negotiation costs.
The Radio Music Licensing Committee (“RMLC”), of which we are a represented participant, has negotiated and entered into, on behalf of participating members, an Interim License Agreement with ASCAP effective January 1, 2022 and to remain in effect until the date on which the parties reach agreement as to, or there is court determination of, new interim or final fees, terms, and conditions of a new license for the five year period commencing on January 1, 2022 and concluding on December 31, 2026. On February 7, 2022, the RMLC and GMR reached a settlement and achieved certain conditions which effectuate a four-year license to which the Company is a party for the period April 1, 2022, to March 31, 2026. The license includes an optional three-year extended term that the Company may effectuate prior to the end of the initial term.
47

Table of Contents
On November 1, 2024, RMLC announced that it had won a ruling in its rate determination proceedings with SESAC with respect to fees paid by RMLC-represented stations. The determination sets the rates for the period January 1, 2023, through December 31, 2026, and is retroactive in its application. RMLC-Represented Stations that have paid SESAC interim license fees at higher previous rates may receive a true-up adjustment in order to bring rates into conformity with the now-final rates. This ruling did not have a material impact on the Company's operations. The RMLC is currently negotiating with BMI.
Lease Obligations
We have non-cancelable operating leases for office space, studio space, broadcast towers and transmitter facilities that expire over the next forty-eight years. See Note 14 - Commitments and Contingencies of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion.
Operating Contracts and Agreements
We have other operating contracts and agreements including employment contracts, on-air talent contracts, severance obligations, retention bonuses, consulting agreements, equipment rental agreements, programming-related agreements, and other general operating agreements that expire over the next five years.
Reach Media Non-controlling Interest
Beginning on January 1, 2018, the non-controlling interest shareholders of Reach Media have had an annual right to require Reach Media to purchase all or a portion of their shares at the then current fair market value for such shares (the “Put Right”). This annual right is exercisable for a 30-day period beginning January 1 of each year. The purchase price for such shares may be paid in cash and/or registered Class D common stock of the Company, at the discretion of the Company. The non-controlling interest shareholders of Reach Media exercised 50.0% of their Put Right on January 29, 2024 for $7.6 million. On February 14, 2025, certain non-controlling interest shareholders of Reach Media exercised their annual Put Right for approximately $3.2 million, increasing the Company’s interest in Reach Media to approximately 94.6% and decreasing the interest of the non-controlling interest shareholders from approximately 10.0% to approximately 5.4%.
Management, at this time, cannot reasonably determine the period when and if the non-controlling interest shareholders will exercise the remaining portion of the Put Right.

Approximately $12.6 million relates to certain commitments for content agreements for our Cable Television segment, approximately $19.9 million relates to employment agreements, and the remainder relates to other agreements.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Current ABL Facility provides for up to $50.0 million revolving loan borrowings in order to provide for the working capital needs and general corporate requirements of the Company. The Current ABL Facility also provides for a letter of credit facility up to $5.0 million as a part of the overall $50.0 million in capacity. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, there was no balance outstanding on the Current ABL Facility.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Not required for smaller reporting companies.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
(a)Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures
We have carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and the Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period ended March 31, 2025. Disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, are controls and procedures that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide a reasonable level of assurance of reaching our desired disclosure controls objectives. Based on this evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2025 as a result of material weaknesses as described below.
Considering the material weaknesses in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, we performed additional procedures to ensure that our consolidated financial statements included in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q were prepared in accordance with GAAP. Following such additional procedures, our management, including our CEO and CFO, has concluded that our consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented in the quarterly report on Form 10-Q, in conformity with GAAP.
(b) Material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting
Management identified the following material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2025. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our consolidated annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
•Control Environment, Information and Communication, and Monitoring – We did not design and maintain effective entity-level controls impacting the (1) control environment, (2) identification of control activities, and (3) monitoring activities to prevent or detect material misstatements to the consolidated financial statements and assess whether the components of internal control were present and functioning. We did not adequately communicate the relevant information, including objectives and responsibilities, necessary to support the functioning of internal control over financial reporting. We did not develop and perform sufficient ongoing evaluations to ascertain whether the components of internal control were present and functioning.
49

Table of Contents
•Control Activities and Information and Communication – We did not have adequate selection and development of effective control activities resulting in the following material weaknesses:
◦We did not design and maintain effective controls over our financial statement close process. This includes an inadequate level of precision in management’s review during the financial statement close process, an inadequate evaluation and review of the accounting for significant and non-recurring transactions, ineffective design and operating effectiveness of controls to support proper segregation of duties related to the review of manual journal entries and account reconciliations and an inadequate review as part of its reporting and disclosure process.
◦We did not design and maintain management review controls over transactions that require significant judgment. Specifically, controls are not designed to sufficiently evaluate the completeness and accuracy of data used in account analyses related to judgmental areas. Additionally, the Company’s management review controls are not operating effectively, as sufficient evidence was not maintained to demonstrate that reviews occurred with a sufficient level of precision to detect a material misstatement.
These material weaknesses resulted in immaterial errors primarily related to stock-based compensation and the Company’s investment in the operations of RVA Entertainment Holdings, LLC (“RVAEH”) and related income tax accounts, which resulted in the revision of the Company’s financial statements for fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. The Company, in the process of correcting these immaterial errors, recorded other immaterial adjustments previously identified during fiscal year 2022. The adjustments, in aggregate, impacted trade accounts receivable, net, accounts payable, other long-term liabilities, and accumulated deficit in the consolidated balance sheets and selling, general and administrative expenses, and related tax effect in the consolidated statements of operations. Additionally, the material weaknesses could result in a misstatement of substantially all account balances or disclosures that would result in a material misstatement of the annual or interim consolidated financial statements that would not be prevented or detected.
•IT General Control Activities – We did not design and maintain information technology ("IT") general controls in the areas of user access, program change management, and IT operations for information technology systems that support the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Specifically, we did not design and maintain (1) user access controls that adequately restrict privileged and end-user access to financial applications, system infrastructure including intrusion detection and incident response capability, programs, and data to appropriate company personnel, including consideration of segregation of incompatible duties; (2) change management controls for financial applications and related system infrastructure to provide reasonable assurance that IT program and data changes are authorized, sufficiently tested, approved, and implemented appropriately; and (3) IT operations controls for certain financial applications to monitor that scheduled financial programs have run and were operating as intended and data backups and recovery are monitored.
These IT deficiencies did not result in a material misstatement to the financial statements, however, the deficiencies, when aggregated, could impact maintaining effective segregation of duties, as well as the effectiveness of IT-dependent controls (such as automated controls that address the risk of material misstatement to one or more assertions, along with the IT controls and underlying data that support the effectiveness of system-generated data and reports) that could result in misstatements potentially impacting all financial statement accounts and disclosures that would not be prevented or detected. Accordingly, management has determined these deficiencies in the aggregate constitute material weaknesses.
(c) Changes in internal control over financial reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended March 31, 2025, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
