    SANTA MONICA, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–

For the 9th consecutive season, Entravision will broadcast 51 prime NFL games in Spanish across its US owned-and-operated radio stations and in key markets through affiliate partnerships that include Latino Media Network.

    Entravision will begin with the NFL Kickoff game on Thursday, September 7th, featuring a match-up between the Detroit Lions and the defending Super Bowl champions, the Kansas City Chiefs. Radio coverage continues across the expanded 18-week NFL season, including all Sunday Night Football and Monday Night Football games, and will continue through the postseason, including the AFC Championship, NFC Championship, and, for the very first time, culminating with Super Bowl LVIII in Las Vegas on February 11, 2024. Super Bowl LVIII will be played at Allegiant Stadium, home of the NFL’s Las Vegas Raiders.

    Entravision’s game day broadcasts include a pre-game show, followed by the live game broadcast and post-game analysis. In addition, Sunday broadcasts start with a 30-minute signature analysis show, Pase Completo, prior to the pre-game show, featuring veteran multi-sport announcer Ricardo Celis and game analyst Tony Nuñez. The Pase Completo program will also be streamed live on Facebook Live.

    “We are thrilled to extend our long-term partnership with the NFL and bring our listeners the most extensive Spanish language radio broadcast of the National Football League,” said Jeffery Liberman, President and Chief Operating Officer of Entravision Communications Corporation. “The fastest-growing fan base for the NFL is the Latino consumer which is passionately awaiting the start of the season. We have had a great partnership with the NFL, and we will continue to build upon this momentum to provide best-in-class coverage and unique cross-promotions that amplify key NFL initiatives.”

    “Our partnership with Entravision is vital, as it helps bring the NFL to Spanish-speaking fans across the country, one of the fastest growing segments of our football fan base,” said Marissa Solis, NFL SVP Global Brand and Consumer Marketing. “Providing Spanish language calls of a large slate of NFL games, including Sunday Night and Monday Night Football, as well as the postseason and the Super Bowl, Entravision will ensure that our Latino fans have the access to the NFL that they deserve.”

    Net revenue in the second quarter of 2023 totaled $273.4 million, up 23% from $221.7 million in the prior-year period. Of the overall increase, $55.5 million was attributable to our digital segment and was primarily due to advertising revenue growth from our digital commercial partnerships business, and due to various acquisitions, which did not contribute to our financial results in our digital segment in the comparable period. The overall increase was partially offset by a decrease of $2.5 million attributable to our television segment, primarily due to decreases in political advertising revenue and national advertising revenue, partially offset by increases in local advertising revenue, spectrum usage rights revenue and retransmission consent revenue. In addition, the overall increase was partially offset by a decrease of $1.4 million attributable to our audio segment, primarily due to a decrease in political advertising revenue, and decreases in local and national advertising revenue.

    Cost of revenue in the second quarter of 2023 totaled $195.8 million, up 35% from $145.0 million in the prior-year period. The increase was primarily due to increased cost of revenue related to advertising revenue growth from our digital commercial partnerships business, and due to various acquisitions, which did not contribute to our financial results in our digital segment in the comparable period.

    Operating expenses in the second quarter of 2023 totaled $56.6 million, up 20% from $47.4 million in the prior-year period. Of the overall increase, $7.8 million was attributable to our digital segment and was primarily due to an increase in non-cash stock-based compensation, which is mainly a result of the timing of the 2023 annual restricted stock unit (“RSU”) grant to certain employees, which was made in February 2023 compared to the 2022 annual grant, which was made in December 2022, and due to an increase in expenses associated with the increase in digital advertising revenue, an increase in salary expense, and due to various acquisitions, which did not contribute to our financial results in our digital segment in the comparable period. Additionally, of the overall increase in operating expenses, $0.1 million was attributable to our television segment primarily due to an increase in non-cash stock-based compensation, which is mainly a result of the 2023 annual RSU grant timing mentioned above, partially offset by a decrease in bad debt expense. In addition, of the overall increase in operating expenses, $1.3 million was attributable to our audio segment primarily due to an increase in non-cash stock-based compensation, which is mainly a result of the 2023 annual RSU grant timing mentioned above, and due to an increase in salaries and increased rent expense in the temporary office space until the move to our new permanent offices, which was completed in June 2023.

    Corporate expenses in the second quarter of 2023 totaled $12.0 million, up 41% from $8.5 million in the prior-year period. The increase was primarily due to an increase in non-cash stock-based compensation, which is mainly a result of the 2023 annual RSU grant timing mentioned above, and increases in professional service fees.

    SANTA MONICA, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
    Entravision (NYSE: EVC) (“Entravision” or the “Company”), a leading global advertising solutions, media and technology company, today announced that the Board of Directors of Entravision granted restricted stock unit awards covering an aggregate of 1,000,000 shares of its common stock (the “RSU Award”) and performance unit awards covering 1,000,000 shares of its common stock (the “PSU Award” and together, the “Awards”) to Michael Christenson effective as of July 1, 2023, the date that he joins Entravision as its Chief Executive Officer.

    The Awards were granted under the recently adopted Entravision Communications Corporation 2023 Inducement Plan (the “Inducement Plan”) as an inducement material to Mr. Christenson entering into employment with Entravision in accordance with New York Stock Exchange Listing Rule 303A.08. The Inducement Plan may be used exclusively for the grant of equity awards to individuals who were not previously employees of Entravision, or following a bona fide period of non-employment, as an inducement material to such individuals’ entering into employment with Entravision, pursuant to New York Stock Exchange Listing Rule 303A.08.

    The RSU Award will vest over five years, with 20% of the RSUs vesting on July 1, 2024, and the remaining 80% of the RSUs vesting in eight equal semi-annual installments thereafter. The foregoing vesting is subject to Mr. Christenson’s continuous service through the applicable vesting date, except that vesting is fully accelerated in the event of Mr. Christenson’s death or disability or his termination of service within three months prior to or two years after a change of control by either the Company without cause or by Mr. Christenson for good reason.

The market-based vesting conditions will be satisfied in five equal tranches, in each case if the Company’s average closing price over 30 consecutive trading days prior to July 1, 2028 equals or exceeds the specified hurdle price for such tranche. For each tranche, the time-based vesting conditions will be satisfied over five years, with 20% of each tranche satisfying the time-based vesting conditions on July 1, 2024, and the remaining 80% of such tranche satisfying the time-based vesting conditions in eight equal semi-annual installments thereafter.

In addition, in the event of a change of control of the Company, the PSUs will convert into a time-based award with market-based conditions deemed to be achieved if the sale price equals or exceeds the applicable hurdle prices.

    SANTA MONICA, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
    Entravision Communications Corporation (NYSE: EVC), a leading global advertising solutions, media and technology company, today announced financial results for the three-month period ended March 31, 2023.

    “Entravision saw continued growth in the first quarter of 2023, with revenue up 21% year-over-year,” said Chris Young, Interim Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. “Growth for the quarter was led by our digital segment, which is impressive given difficult macro conditions and decreased political advertising revenue from last year.”

As we progress through additional quarters, we will continue to seek out opportunities, including acquisitions, that will enhance our digital offerings and strengthen our ability to compete internationally.”

    Quarterly Cash Dividend

    The Company announced today that its Board of Directors approved a quarterly cash dividend to shareholders of $0.05 per share on the Company’s Class A and Class U common stock, in an aggregate amount of $4.4 million. The quarterly dividend will be payable on June 30, 2023 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on June 16, 2023, and the common stock will trade ex-dividend on June 15, 2023. The Company currently anticipates that future cash dividends will be paid on a quarterly basis; however, any decision to pay future cash dividends will be subject to approval by the Board.

    $275 Million Credit Facility

    On March 17, 2023, the Company entered into the 2023 Amended and Restated Credit Facility (the “2023 Credit Facility”), which consists of a $200 million senior secured Term A Facility, which was drawn in full, and a $75 million Revolving Credit Facility, of which $11.5 million was drawn. In addition, the 2023 Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “2023 Credit Agreement”) provides that the Company may increase the aggregate principal amount of the 2023 Credit Facility by an additional amount equal to $100 million plus the amount that would result in the Company’s first lien net leverage ratio (as such term is used in the 2023 Credit Agreement) not exceeding 2.25 to 1.0, subject to the Company satisfying certain conditions.

We use the term consolidated EBITDA because that measure is defined in our 2017 Credit Agreement and 2023 Credit Agreement, and does not include gain (loss) on sale of assets, depreciation and amortization, non-cash impairment charge, non-cash stock-based compensation, net interest expense, other income (loss), gain (loss) on debt extinguishment, income tax (expense) benefit, equity in net income (loss) of nonconsolidated affiliate, non-cash losses, syndication programming amortization less syndication programming payments, revenue from FCC spectrum incentive auction less related expenses, expenses associated with investments, EBITDA attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interest, acquisitions and dispositions and certain pro-forma cost savings.

    (5)

    Free cash flow is defined as consolidated EBITDA less cash paid for income taxes, net interest expense, capital expenditures (less amounts reimbursed by landlord) and non-recurring cash expenses plus dividend income, and other operating gain (loss). Net interest expense is defined as interest expense, less non-cash interest expense relating to amortization of debt finance costs, and less interest income.

    Net revenue in the first quarter of 2023 totaled $239.0 million, up 21% from $197.2 million in the prior-year period. Of the overall increase, $42.8 million was attributable to our digital segment and was primarily due to advertising revenue growth from our digital commercial partnerships business, and due to our VIEs, which did not contribute to our financial results in our digital segment in the comparable period. The overall increase was partially offset by a decrease of $0.6 million attributable to our television segment, primarily due to decreases in political advertising revenue and national advertising revenue, partially offset by increases in local advertising revenue, spectrum usage rights revenue and retransmission consent revenue. In addition, the overall increase was partially offset by a decrease of $0.4 million attributable to our audio segment, primarily due to a decrease in political advertising revenue, and decreases in local and national advertising revenue.

    Cost of revenue in the first quarter of 2023 totaled $167.8 million, up 29% from $129.9 million in the prior-year period. The increase was primarily due to increased cost of revenue related to advertising revenue growth from our digital commercial partnerships business, and due to our VIEs, which did not contribute to our financial results in our digital segment in the comparable period.

    Operating expenses in the first quarter of 2023 totaled $52.6 million, up 20% from $43.9 million in the prior-year period. Of the overall increase, $6.3 million was attributable to our digital segment and was primarily due to our VIEs, which did not contribute to our financial results in our digital segment in the comparable period, an increase in salary expense, an increase in non-cash stock-based compensation, and an increase in expenses associated with the increase in digital advertising revenue. Additionally, of the overall increase in operating expenses, $0.9 million was attributable to our television segment primarily due to an increase in non-cash stock-based compensation, increased rent expense in the temporary office space until the move to our new permanent offices is completed, and an increase in bad debt expense. In addition, of the overall increase in operating expenses, $1.6 million was attributable to our audio segment primarily due to increases in salaries and music license fees, and increased rent expense in the temporary office space until the move to our new permanent offices is completed. The increases in non-cash stock-based compensation are mainly a result of the 2023 annual restricted stock unit (“RSU”) grant, which was made in February 2023 compared to the 2022 annual grant, which was made in December 2022.

    Corporate expenses in the first quarter of 2023 totaled $10.5 million, up 20% from $8.7 million in the prior-year period. The increase was primarily due to an increase in non-cash stock-based compensation, which is mainly a result of the 2023 annual RSU grant, which was made in February 2023 compared to the 2022 annual grant, which was made in December 2022, an increase in professional service fees, and an increase in audit fees.
