ITEM 2.02.  Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
 
Urban One, Inc. (the "Company") issued a press release setting forth the results for its quarter ended March 31, 2021.  A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1.


ITEM 8.01.  Other Events

During the course of its earnings call for the quarter ended March 31, 2021, the Company noted that it expected to achieve Adjusted EBITDA of approximately $130 million for the year-ended December 31, 2021.  The Company further noted that this estimate was before the impact of any “chase costs” related to its bid to obtain a casino gaming license in Richmond, Virginia.  The Company estimated those costs to be up to approximately $4.0 million in the event the Company was selected as the preferred casino operator in the City of Richmond and was required to take the measure to the City’s November 2021 referendum.  In the event the Company was not selected, the amount of those costs would be expected to be closer to approximately $1.5 to $2.0 million. Finally, the Company noted that it expected the determination of the City of Richmond as to who was to be selected as the City’s preferred casino operator to be made in late May to mid-June 2021.
