The Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation under a contract with an advertiser. The transaction price is allocated to performance obligations based on executed contracts, which represent relative standalone selling prices. Payment is generally due within 30 days, although certain advertisers are required to pay in advance. Revenues are reported at the amount the Company expects to be entitled to receive under the contract. The Company has elected to use the practical expedient to expense sales commissions as incurred. Payments received from advertisers before the performance obligation is satisfied are recorded as deferred revenue in the balance sheets. Substantially all deferred revenue is recognized within 12 months of the payment date.

Deferred revenue |  | $ | 4,835,984 |  |  | $ | 4,832,273 |

Audio revenue includes revenue from the sale or trade of aired commercial spots to advertisers directly or through national, regional or local advertising agencies. Each commercial spot is considered a performance obligation. Revenue is recognized when the commercial spots have aired. Trade sales are recorded at the estimated fair value of the goods or services received. If commercial spots are aired before the goods or services are received, then a trade sales receivable is recorded. If goods or services are received before the commercial spots are aired, then a trade sales payable is recorded. Other revenue includes revenue from concerts, promotional events, talent fees and other miscellaneous items. Such revenue is generally recognized when the concert, promotional event, or talent services are completed.

Digital revenue includes revenue from the sale of streamed commercial spots, station-owned assets and third-party products. Each streamed commercial spot, station-owned asset and third-party product is considered a performance obligation. Revenue is recognized when the commercial spots have streamed. Station-owned assets are generally scheduled over a period of time and revenue is recognized over time as the digital items are used for advertising content, except for streamed commercial spots. Third-party products are generally scheduled over a period of time with an impression target each month. Revenue from the sale of third-party products is recognized over time as the digital items are used for advertising content and impression targets are met each month. The Company assesses each digital sales order to determine if the Company is operating as the principal or an agent. The Company currently operates as the principal for digital revenue.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Beasley Broadcast Group, Inc. 2007 Equity Incentive Award Plan (the “2007 Plan”) permits the Company to issue up to 7.5 million shares of Class A common stock. The 2007 Plan allows for eligible employees, directors and certain consultants of the Company to receive restricted stock units, shares of restricted stock, stock options or other stock-based awards. The restricted stock units that have been granted under the 2007 Plan generally vest over one to five years of service.

A summary of restricted stock unit activity is presented below:

|  | Units |  |  | Weighted-Average Grant-Date Fair Value |
Unvested as of April 1, 2024 |  |  | 726,084 |  |  | $ | 1.50 |
Granted |  |  | 390,661 |  |  |  | 0.66 |

Unvested as of June 30, 2024 |  |  | 948,745 |  |  | $ | 1.07 |

As of June 30, 2024, there was $0.6 million of total unrecognized compensation cost for restricted stock units granted under the 2007 Plan. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.8 years.

These rates differ from the federal statutory rate of 21% due to the effect of state income taxes and certain expenses that are not deductible for tax purposes.

Financial Statement Presentation

The following discussion provides a brief description of certain key items that appear in our financial statements and general factors that impact these items.

Net Revenue. Our net revenue is primarily derived from the sale of commercial spots to advertisers directly or through national, regional or local advertising agencies. Revenues are reported at the amount we expect to be entitled to receive under the contract. Local revenue generally consists of commercial advertising sales, digital advertising sales and other sales to advertisers in a station’s local market, either directly to the advertiser or through the advertiser’s agency. National revenue generally consists of commercial advertising sales through advertiser agencies. National advertiser agencies generally purchase advertising for multiple markets. National sales are generally facilitated by our national representation firm, which serves as our agent in these transactions.

Our net revenue is generally determined by the advertising rates that we are able to charge and the number of advertisements that we can broadcast without jeopardizing listener levels. Advertising rates are primarily based on the following factors:

•
a station’s audience share in the demographic groups targeted by advertisers as measured principally by periodic reports issued by Nielsen Audio;
•
the number of stations, as well as other forms of media, in the market competing for the attention of the same demographic groups;
•
the supply of, and demand for, radio advertising time; and
•
the size of the market.

13

Our net revenue is affected by general economic conditions, competition and our ability to improve operations at our radio market clusters. Seasonal revenue fluctuations are also common in the radio broadcasting industry and are primarily due to variations in advertising expenditures by local and national advertisers. Our revenues typically are lowest in the first calendar quarter of the year. In addition, our revenues tend to fluctuate between years, consistent with, among other things, increased advertising expenditures in even-numbered years by political candidates, political parties and special interest groups. This political spending typically is heaviest during the fourth quarter of such years.

We use trade sales agreements to reduce cash paid for operating costs and expenses by exchanging advertising airtime for goods or services; however, we endeavor to minimize trade revenue in order to maximize cash revenue from our available airtime.

We also continue to invest in digital support services to develop and promote our station websites, applications, and other distribution platforms. We derive revenue from our websites through the sale of advertiser promotions and advertising on our websites and the sale of advertising airtime during audio streaming of our stations over the internet. We also generate revenue from selling third-party digital products and services.

Operating Expenses. Our operating expenses consist primarily of programming, engineering, sales, advertising and promotion, and general and administrative expenses incurred at our stations. We strive to control our operating expenses by centralizing certain functions at our corporate offices and consolidating certain functions in each of our market clusters.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect
reported amounts and related disclosures. We consider an accounting estimate to be critical if:

•
it involves a significant level of estimation uncertainty; and
•
changes in the estimate or different estimates that could have been selected have had or are reasonably likely to have a material impact on our results of operations or financial condition.

Our critical accounting estimates are described in Part II, Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. There have been no additional material changes to our critical accounting estimates during the six months ended June 30, 2024.

Net Revenue. Net revenue decreased $3.0 million during the three months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023. Audio revenue decreased $3.0 million during the three months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023, primarily due to a decrease in local agency and direct revenue and the disposition of WJBR-FM in Wilmington, DE in October 2023. Digital revenue increased $0.7 million during the three months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023, primarily due to continued growth in the digital segment. Other revenue decreased $0.7 million during the three months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023, due to the termination of our esports operations in December 2023.

Operating Expenses. Operating expenses decreased $2.0 million during the three months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023. Audio operating expenses increased $0.1 million during the three months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023, primarily due to an increase in compensation expense related to workforce reductions, partially offset by the disposition of WJBR-FM in Wilmington, DE in October 2023. Digital operating expenses decreased $0.9 million during the three months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023, primarily due to expense management in the digital segment. Other operating expenses decreased $1.2 million during the three months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023, due to the termination of our esports operations in December 2023.

Corporate Expenses. Corporate expenses decreased $0.5 million during the three months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023, primarily due to an increase in digital expenses allocated to operating expenses.

Impairment Loss. During the second quarter of 2023, due to the potential sale of substantially all of the assets used in the operations of WJBR-FM in Wilmington, DE, we recorded an impairment loss of $10.0 million related to the FCC license.

Interest Expense. Interest expense decreased $0.6 million during the three months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023 due to repurchases of the Notes throughout 2023.

Income Tax Benefit. Our effective tax rate was approximately (7)% and (21)% for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2024, respectively. These rates differ from the federal statutory rate of 21% due to the effect of state income taxes and certain expenses that are not deductible for tax purposes.

Net Loss. Net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was $0.3 million compared to a net loss of $10.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, as a result of the factors described above.

Income Tax Benefit. Our effective tax rate was approximately (18)% and (64)% for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2024, respectively. These rates differ from the federal statutory rate of 21% due to the effect of state income taxes and certain expenses that are not deductible for tax purposes.

Net Loss. Net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $0.3 million compared to a net loss of $14.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, as a result of the factors described above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview. Our primary sources of liquidity are internally generated cash flow and cash on hand. Our primary liquidity needs have been, and for the next 12 months and thereafter are expected to continue to be, for working capital, debt service, and other general corporate purposes, including capital expenditures and station acquisitions. Historically, our capital expenditures have not been significant. In addition to property and equipment associated with station acquisitions, our capital expenditures have generally been, and are expected to continue to be, related to the maintenance of our office and studio space, the maintenance of our towers and equipment, and digital products and information technology. We have also purchased or constructed office and studio space in some of our markets to facilitate the consolidation of our operations.

Our board of directors has suspended future quarterly dividend payments until it is determined that resumption of dividend
payments is in the best interest of the Company’s stockholders. In addition, as discussed in “Secured Notes” below, the Indenture
governing our Notes limits our ability to pay dividends.

Secured Notes. On February 2, 2021, we issued $300.0 million aggregate principal amount of 8.625% senior secured notes due on February 1, 2026 (the “Notes”) under an indenture dated February 2, 2021 (the “Indenture”). Interest on the Notes accrues at the rate of 8.625% per annum and is payable semiannually in arrears on February 1 and August 1 of each year. The Notes are secured on a first-lien priority basis by substantially all assets of the Company and its majority-owned subsidiaries and are guaranteed jointly and severally by the Company and its majority-owned subsidiaries. The Indenture contains restrictive covenants that limit the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to, among other things, incur additional indebtedness, guarantee indebtedness or issue disqualified stock or, in the case of such subsidiaries, preferred stock; pay dividends on, repurchase or make distributions in respect of our capital stock or make other restricted payments; make certain investments or acquisitions; sell, transfer or otherwise convey certain assets; create liens; enter into agreements restricting certain subsidiaries’ ability to pay dividends or make other intercompany transfers; consolidate, merge, sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of our assets; enter into transactions with affiliates; prepay certain kinds of indebtedness; and issue or sell stock of our subsidiaries.

In the second quarter of 2023, we repurchased $3.0 million principal amount of the Notes for a price equal to 66% of the principal amount and recorded a gain of $1.0 million as a result of the repurchase.

From time to time, we repurchase sufficient shares of our Class A common stock to fund withholding taxes in connection with the vesting of restricted stock units. We paid approximately $37,000 to repurchase 52,579 shares during the six months ended June 30, 2024. From time to time, we may seek to repurchase, redeem or otherwise retire our Notes through cash purchases and/or exchanges for equity securities, in open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, tender offers or otherwise. Such repurchases, redemptions or other transactions, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions, and other factors. The amounts involved may be material.

We expect to provide for future liquidity needs through one or a combination of the following sources of liquidity:

•
internally generated cash flow;
•
additional borrowings or notes offerings, to the extent permitted under the Indenture governing our Notes; and
•
additional equity offerings.

We believe we will have sufficient liquidity and capital resources to permit us to provide for our liquidity requirements and meet our financial obligations for the next 12 months and thereafter. However, poor financial results or unanticipated expenses could give rise to default under the Notes, additional debt servicing requirements or other additional financing or liquidity requirements sooner than we expect, and we may not secure financing when needed or on acceptable terms.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements. We did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as of June 30, 2024.

Cash Flows. The following summary table presents a comparison of our cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2024 with respect to certain of our key measures affecting our liquidity. The changes set forth in the table are discussed in greater detail below. This section should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and notes to condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this report.

Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents |  | $ | (4,043,991 | ) |  | $ | 6,560,266 |

Net Cash Provided By Operating Activities. Net cash provided by operating activities was $2.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to net cash provided by operating activities of approximately $24,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2023. The $2.5 million increase in net cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to a $1.1 million decrease in interest payments, a $1.0 million increase in other income, net, a $0.9 million decrease in income tax payments, and a $0.7 million decrease in cash paid for corporate expenses, partially offset by a $1.0 decrease in cash receipts from revenue.

Net Cash Provided By (Used In) Investing Activities. Net cash provided by investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2024 included proceeds of $6.0 million from the sale of an investment, partially offset by payments of $2.0 million for capital expenditures. Net cash used in investing activities for the same period in 2023 included payments of $2.0 million for capital expenditures.

Net Cash Used In Financing Activities. Net cash used in financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2023 included Notes repurchases of $2.0 million.

PART II OTHER IN FORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

We currently and from time to time are involved in ordinary routine litigation and are the subject of threats of litigation that are incidental to the conduct of our business. These include indecency claims and related proceedings at the FCC, as well as claims and threatened claims by private third parties. However, we are not a party to any lawsuit or other proceedings, or the subject of any threatened lawsuit or other proceedings, which, in the opinion of management, is likely to have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

ITEM 1A. RIS K FACTORS.

Except for the risk factor discussed below, there have been no material changes to the risks affecting our Company as previously
disclosed in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” of our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

There can be no assurance that we will be able to comply with the continued listing standards of the Nasdaq Capital Market.

Our Class A common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”) is currently listed for trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market, and we must satisfy certain continued listing requirements to maintain the listing. On April 27, 2023, we received a written notice from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) notifying us that, for the last 30 consecutive business days, the bid price for the Common Stock had closed below the $1.00 per share minimum bid price requirement for continued inclusion on the Nasdaq Global Market pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(a)(1) (the “Minimum Bid Price Requirement”). On May 19, 2023, we received a notice from Nasdaq notifying us that we had regained compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement and that the matter was closed.

On October 13, 2023, we received a written notice from the Listing Qualifications Department of Nasdaq notifying us that, for the last 30 consecutive business days, the bid price for the Common Stock had closed below the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. In accordance with Nasdaq rules, we were provided with a period of 180 calendar days, or until April 10, 2024, to regain compliance.

On April 16, 2024, we received approval from Nasdaq to transfer the listing of the Common Stock from the Nasdaq Global Market to the Nasdaq Capital Market (the “Approval”). The Common Stock was transferred to the Nasdaq Capital Market at the opening of business on April 18, 2024, and continues to trade under the symbol “BBGI.” As a result of the Approval, we were granted an additional 180-day compliance period, or until October 7, 2024, to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. To regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement and qualify for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market, the minimum bid price per share of the Company’s Common Stock must be at least $1.00 for at least ten consecutive business days during the additional 180-day compliance period.

We intend to actively monitor the closing bid price of the Common Stock and will consider all reasonable available options to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement, which may include seeking stockholder approval to effect a reverse stock split. There can be no assurance that we will regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement by October 7, 2024, maintain compliance with the other Nasdaq listing requirements or be successful in appealing any delisting determination.

If we are delisted from Nasdaq but obtain a substitute listing for the Common Stock, it will likely be on a market with less liquidity, and therefore experience potentially more price volatility than experienced on Nasdaq. Stockholders may not be able to sell their shares of the Common Stock on any such substitute market in the quantities, at the times, or at the prices that could potentially be available on a more liquid trading market. As a result of these factors, if the Common Stock is delisted from Nasdaq, the value and liquidity of the Common Stock would likely be significantly adversely affected.

On March 27, 2007, our board of directors approved the Beasley Broadcast Group, Inc. 2007 Equity Incentive Award Plan (the “2007 Plan”). The original 10-year term of the 2007 Plan ended on March 27, 2017. Our stockholders approved an amendment to the 2007 Plan at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders on June 8, 2017 to, among other things, extend the term of the 2007 Plan until March 27, 2027. The 2007 Plan permits us to purchase sufficient shares to fund withholding taxes in connection with the vesting of restricted stock units. All shares purchased during the three months ended June 30, 2024 were purchased to fund withholding taxes in connection with the vesting of restricted stock units.
