CLEAR CHANNEL OUTDOOR HOLDINGS, INC. REPORTS

RESULTS FOR 2015 THIRD QUARTER

San Antonio, TX, November 5, 2015 – Clear Channel Outdoor Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: CCO) today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2015.

“In an increasingly fragmented advertising landscape, outdoor is one of the most powerful mass-market visual mediums to reach consumers that are spending more time than ever outside of the home,” said Bob Pittman, Executive Chairman of Clear Channel Outdoor Holdings, Inc. “The investments we’ve made to bring our assets into the digital age enable us to push the boundaries of out-of-home campaigns and provide creative solutions for advertisers globally with the scale and flexibility they demand.”

“International Outdoor delivered another quarter of top line growth driven by strength in key European markets,” said International Outdoor Chief Executive Officer William Eccleshare. “We are pleased with the underlying performance of the business when excluding one-time costs associated with portfolio management initiatives, and we continue to focus expanding our digital footprint across key markets, such as the UK with our Storm digital brand.”

“We’ve further bolstered our management team with the addition of key talent across both sales and operational roles, and I am pleased to report another quarter of revenue growth,” said Americas Outdoor CEO Scott Wells. “We are focused on developing key strategies to drive tangible results for our advertising partners and proving the powerful value proposition of out of home advertising locally and nationally.”

Key Financial Highlights

The Company’s key financial highlights for the third quarter 2015 include:

• Consolidated revenues increased 1% to $752 million, excluding the unfavorable impact from movements in foreign exchange rates. On a reported basis, consolidated revenues decreased 6% to $696 million.

• Americas outdoor revenues increased $4 million, or 1%, excluding the unfavorable impact from movements in foreign exchange rates. On a reported basis, revenues decreased $3 million, or 1%.

• International outdoor revenues increased $5 million, or 1%, excluding the unfavorable impact from movements in foreign exchange rates. On a reported basis, revenues decreased $43 million, or 11%.

Key Non-Financial Highlights

The Company’s recent key non-financial highlights include:

• Installed 15 new digital billboards in North America for an end of quarter total of 1,220 across 38 markets (over 1,300 including Latin America) and 724 new digital displays in international markets for an end of quarter total of over 5,000 displays.

• Partnered with Vistar Media to use location data from mobile devices to understand consumer behavior, and then deliver relevant messages to these screens using Vistar’s ad serving platform. The partnership underscores Americas Outdoor’s dedication to using technology and data to connect its screens with digital media strategies and buyers.

• Launched multi-year partnership with Vertical Bridge for the management and marketing of antenna and small cell site deployment on Americas Outdoor billboards and other out-of-home assets in 45 of the top 50 U.S. markets – covering more geography and out-of-home inventory than any other such agreement in the U.S.

• Created one of the longest digital out-of-home advertising sites in Europe. The site, located on London’s Cromwell Road, is nearly 80 yards long with six consecutive 96-sheet screens sold together as single advertising opportunity.

• Won two contracts in Switzerland, including a street furniture contract in Lucerne (launching in Q1 2016) and a transport contract in Zurich (launching in Q1 2017).

Third Quarter 2015 Results

Consolidated revenues increased 1% to $752 million in 2015 compared to 2014 after adjusting for a $55 million unfavorable impact from movements in foreign exchange rates. On a reported basis, consolidated revenue decreased 6%.

After adjusting for movements in foreign exchange rates, the Company’s OIBDAN¹ was down 1% in the third quarter 2015 compared to the same period of 2014. Included in the 2015 third quarter OIBDAN¹ were $8 million of operating expenses and $1 million of corporate expenses associated with the Company’s strategic revenue and efficiency initiatives, $1 million lower than such expenses in the prior year. On a reported basis, OIBDAN¹ was down down 3% to $165 million for the third quarter compared to the same period in 2014.

The Company’s consolidated net loss totaled $15 million in the third quarter of 2015 compared to consolidated net income of $1 million in the same period of 2014. The decrease was primarily due to the foreign exchange impact on intercompany loans off set by the income tax benefit recorded in the third quarter 2015, compared to income tax expense recorded in the same period in 2014.

Americas

Americas outdoor revenues increased $4 million, or 1%, during the third quarter 2015 as compared to the third quarter 2014 after adjusting for a $7 million unfavorable impact from movements in foreign exchange rates. Growth was driven primarily by higher revenues from our Spectacolor and street furniture businesses, partially offset by lower advertising revenues from our static and digital bulletins and posters. On a reported basis, revenues decreased $3 million, or 1%.

3

Operating expenses increased $2 million during the third quarter 2015 as compared to the third quarter 2014 after adjusting for a $6 million favorable impact from movements in foreign exchange rates. The increase was primarily due to higher variable site lease expenses related to the increase in revenues. On a reported basis, operating expenses decreased $4 million, or 2%.

OIBDAN increased $2 million, or 1%, during the third quarter 2015 as compared to the third quarter 2014 after adjusting for a $1 million unfavorable impact from movements in foreign exchange rates. On a reported basis, OIBDAN was up $1 million, or 1%.

International

International outdoor revenues increased $5 million, or 1%, during the third quarter 2015 as compared to the third quarter 2014 after adjusting for a $48 million unfavorable impact from movements in foreign exchange rates. The increase in revenue was driven primarily by growth in certain European countries, including the UK, Norway and Italy, partially offset by a decrease in other countries, including France. On a reported basis, revenues decreased $43 million, or 11%.

Operating expenses increased $14 million, or 4%, during the third quarter 2015 as compared to the third quarter 2014 after adjusting for a $45 million impact from movements in foreign exchange rates. Operating expenses increased primarily due to site lease termination fees incurred in connection with strategic efficiency initiatives and higher compensation expense. On a reported basis, operating expenses decreased $31 million, or 10%.

OIBDAN decreased $9 million, or 13%, during the third quarter 2015 as compared to the third quarter 2014 after adjusting for a $3 million unfavorable impact from movements in foreign exchange rates. OIBDAN in the third quarter 2015 includes $7 million in expenses related to investments in strategic revenue and efficiency initiatives compared to $2 million in the 2014 period. On a reported basis, OIBDAN was down $12 million, or 19%, compared to the prior year period.

Liquidity and Financial Position

For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, cash flow provided by operating activities was $126 million, cash flow used for investing activities totaled $134 million, cash flow provided by financing activities of $5 million, and there was $11 million impact from movements in foreign exchange rates on cash. The net decrease in cash was $13 million.

Capital expenditures for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 were approximately $139 million compared to $135 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014.

The consolidated leverage ratio, defined as total debt divided by EBITDA (as defined by the Clear Channel Worldwide Holdings (“CCWH”) Senior Notes indentures) for the preceding four quarters was 6.7:1 at September 30, 2015, and the senior leverage ratio, defined as senior debt divided by EBITDA (as defined by the CCWH Senior Notes indentures) for the preceding four quarters was 3.7:1 at September 30, 2015. As required by the definition of EBITDA in the CCWH Senior Notes indentures, our EBITDA for the preceding four quarters of $740 million is calculated as operating income (loss) before depreciation, amortization, impairment charges and other operating income (expense), net, plus share-based compensation, and is further adjusted for the following items: (i) costs incurred in connection with the closure and/or consolidation of facilities, retention charges, consulting fees and other permitted activities; (ii) extraordinary, non-recurring or unusual gains or losses or expenses and severance; (iii) non-cash charges; (iv) cash received from nonconsolidated affiliates; and (v) various other items.

Supplemental Disclosure Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Information

The following tables set forth the Company’s OIBDAN for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014. The Company defines OIBDAN as consolidated net income (loss) adjusted to exclude non-cash compensation expenses and amortization of deferred system implementation costs as well as the following line items presented in its Statement of Operations: Income tax benefit (expense); Other income (expense), net; Equity in earnings (loss) of nonconsolidated affiliates; Interest expense; Interest income on Due from iHeartCommunications, Inc.; Other operating income, net; D&A; and Impairment charges.

The Company uses OIBDAN, among other things, to evaluate the Company’s operating performance. This measure is among the primary measures used by management for the planning and forecasting of future periods, as well as for measuring performance for compensation of executives and other members of management. We believe this measure is an important indicator of the Company’s operational strength and performance of its business because it provides a link between profitability and net income. It is also a primary measure used by management in evaluating companies as potential acquisition targets.

The Company believes the presentation of this measure is relevant and useful for investors because it allows investors to view performance in a manner similar to the method used by the Company’s management. The Company believes it helps improve investors’ ability to understand the Company’s operating performance and makes it easier to compare the Company’s results with other companies that have different capital structures, equity compensation structures or tax rates. In addition, the Company believes this measure is also among the primary measures used externally by the Company’s investors, analysts and peers in its industry for purposes of valuation and comparing the operating performance of the Company to other companies in its industry.

Since OIBDAN is not a measure calculated in accordance with GAAP, it should not be considered in isolation of, or as a substitute for, net income as an indicator of operating performance and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies. OIBDAN is not necessarily a measure of the Company’s ability to fund its cash needs. As it excludes certain financial information compared with operating income and net income (loss), the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, users of this financial information should consider the types of events and transactions which are excluded.

In addition, because a significant portion of the Company’s advertising operations are conducted in foreign markets, principally Europe, the U.K. and China, management reviews the operating results from its foreign operations on a constant dollar basis. A constant dollar basis (in which a foreign currency adjustment is made to show the 2015 actual foreign revenues, expenses and OIBDAN at average 2014 foreign exchange rates) allows for comparison of operations independent of foreign exchange rate movements.

7

As required by the SEC, the Company provides reconciliations below to the most directly comparable amounts reported under GAAP, including (i) OIBDAN for each segment to consolidated operating income (loss); (ii) Revenues excluding the effects of foreign exchange to revenues; (iii) Expenses excluding the effects of foreign exchange to expenses; (iv) OIBDAN excluding the effects of foreign exchange to OIBDAN; (v) Corporate expenses excluding non-cash compensation expenses to Corporate expenses; and (vi) OIBDAN to net income (loss).
