Consolidated adjusted EBITDA means net income (loss) plus gain (loss) on sale of assets, depreciation and amortization, non-cash impairment charge, non-cash stock-based compensation included in operating and corporate expenses, net interest expense, gain (loss) on debt extinguishment, income tax (expense) benefit, equity in net income (loss) of nonconsolidated affiliate and syndication programming amortization less syndication programming payments. We use the term consolidated adjusted EBITDA because that measure is defined in our revolving credit facility 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, gain (loss) on debt extinguishment, income tax (expense) benefit, equity in net income (loss) of nonconsolidated affiliate and syndication programming amortization and does include syndication programming payments. While many in the financial community and we consider consolidated adjusted EBITDA to be important, it should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for or superior to, other measures of liquidity and financial performance prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, such as cash flows from operating activities, operating income and net income.  As consolidated adjusted EBITDA excludes non-cash gain (loss) on sale of assets, non-cash depreciation and amortization, non-cash impairment charge, non-cash stock-based compensation expense, net interest expense, gain (loss) on debt extinguishment, income tax (expense) benefit, equity in net income (loss) of nonconsolidated affiliate and syndication programming amortization and includes syndication programming payments, consolidated adjusted EBITDA has certain limitations because it excludes and includes several important non-cash financial line items. Therefore, we consider both non-GAAP and GAAP measures when evaluating our business.  Consolidated adjusted EBITDA is also used to make executive compensation decisions.
(4)  
Free cash flow is defined as consolidated adjusted EBITDA less cash paid for income taxes, net interest expense and capital expenditures. Net interest expense is defined as interest expense, less non-cash interest expense relating to amortization of debt finance costs, less non-cash interest expense relating to discount amortization on the Notes, less interest income and less the change in the fair value of our interest rate swaps. Free cash flow per share is defined as free cash flow divided by the basic or diluted weighted average common shares outstanding.
   
   Commenting on the Company’s earnings results, Walter F. Ulloa, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, “During the third quarter, we generated revenue growth primarily driven by retransmission consent revenue and World Cup and political advertising.  Our audience shares remain strong in the nation's most densely populated Hispanic markets, and we believe we are well positioned to benefit as the U.S. Hispanic market continues to expand and advertisers increasingly recognize the importance of reaching our audience.

Senior Secured Notes and Revolving Credit Facility
   
    On July 27, 2010, the Company completed the offering and sale of $400,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 8.75% Senior Secured First Lien Notes (the “Notes”).   Net proceeds from the Notes were used to pay all indebtedness outstanding under the Company’s then-existing syndicated bank credit facility, pay fees and expenses related to the offering of the Notes and for general corporate purposes.  Also on July 27, 2010, the Company entered into a new $50,000,000 revolving credit facility and terminated its then-existing syndicated bank credit facility.
 
    These transactions are more fully described in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on July 27, 2010.

    Net revenue increased to $149.8 million for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2010 from $141.2 million for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009, an increase of $8.6 million. Of the overall increase, $6.7 million came from our television segment and was primarily attributable to advertising revenue from the World Cup, retransmission consent revenue, and political advertising revenue. Additionally, $1.9 million of the overall increase came from our radio segment and was primarily attributable to advertising revenue from the World Cup, and political and census advertising revenue.

    Operating expenses increased to $92.1 million for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2010 from $92.0 million for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009, an increase of $0.1 million. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in national representation fees and other expenses associated with the increase in net revenue, partially offset by a decrease in salary expense due to reductions of personnel and salary reductions implemented in 2009.
   
    Corporate expenses increased to $11.0 million for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2010 from $10.6 million for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009, an increase of $0.4 million.
