21.       SUMMARIZED QUARTERLY FINANCIAL DATA (Unaudited)

 

       The following table presents unaudited operating results for each quarter within the two most recent years. The Company believes that all necessary adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, have been included in the amounts stated below to present fairly the following quarterly results when read in conjunction with the financial statements included elsewhere in this report. Results of operations for any particular quarter are not necessarily indicative of results of operations for a full year. The Company's financial results are also not comparable from quarter to quarter due to: (1) the seasonality of revenues, with revenues usually the lowest in the first quarter of each year; (2) the reversal of the full valuation allowance in the second quarter of 2011 as described in Note 13, Income Taxes; (3) the impairment of broadcast licenses recorded in the second quarter of

  • Basic and diluted net income per share is computed independently for each quarter and the full year based upon respective average shares outstanding. Therefore, the sum of the quarterly per share amounts may not equal the annual per share amounts reported.

     

  • During the second quarter of 2012, the Company recognized an impairment loss of $22.3 million as a result of a write-down in the carrying value of the broadcasting licenses in its Boston market.

     

  • In connection with the preparation of the Company's financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company identified a prior period error in the income taxes reported for the second quarter and year ended December 31, 2011. There was no impact to the first quarter of 2011 and inconsequential impact to the third and fourth quarters of 2011. The Company assessed the materiality of this error and concluded that it was not material to any of its previously issued financial statements. The Company has revised the affected period presented herein to reflect the correct accounting. The revision also decreased the net deferred tax assets included in the 2011 second and third quarter balance sheets by $2.2 million. This non-cash item did not impact the Company's operating income or operating cash flows for the current or prior period and had no impact on the Company's cash taxes. For further discussion, refer to Note 1.
