Liquidity and Going Concern

In August 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern. This update provides guidance about management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. The Company adopted ASU 2014-15 during the year ended February 28, 2017. Subsequent to adoption, the Company is required to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern each reporting period, including interim periods.
In evaluating the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, management evaluated the conditions and events that could raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the interim financial statements were issued (October 12, 2017). Management considered the Company’s current projections of future cash flows, current financial condition, sources of liquidity and debt obligations due on or before October 12, 2018.
As of August 31, 2017, the Company classified its $5.0 million revolver debt as current because the revolver expires on August 31, 2018. The Company also classified $4.4 million of Term Loan debt associated with the proceeds received from the sale of Texas Monthly as current because it is due during the quarter ending November 30, 2017. The Company also expects to pay approximately $6.5 million of cash interest obligations related to our 2014 Credit Agreement and $3.2 million of income taxes to various tax jurisdictions prior to October 12, 2018. The Company’s current projections indicate that forecasted cash flows may be insufficient for the Company to settle all of these obligations in full and continue without a revolver subsequent to August 31, 2018.
Management is currently exploring a number of options that would allow the Company to meet all of the aforementioned obligations. Management believes that it is probable that it will refinance the debt outstanding under the 2014 Credit Agreement prior to August 31, 2018. The Company has successfully refinanced its credit agreement debt many times in the past. Recent asset sales and associated term loan repayments have significantly reduced the Company’s leverage ratio, which management believes will enhance its ability to refinance the debt. Management is also exploring several alternatives that would further reduce our leverage ratio, including the sale of WLIB-AM in New York City. While management does not believe the sale of this or any other asset is required to complete a refinancing, management believes it would likely improve the economics of a refinancing for the Company.
Management's intention and belief that the credit agreement debt will be refinanced during the next twelve months assumes, among other things, that the Company will continue to be successful in implementing its business strategy and that there will be no material adverse developments in its business, liquidity or capital requirements. If one or more of these factors do not occur as expected, it could cause a default under the Company's credit agreement.
