313/886-7070
Grosse Pointe Farms, MI — February 27, 2007 — Saga Communications, Inc. (NYSE-SGA) today reported net operating revenue for the quarter ended December 31, 2006 increased 7.8% over the comparable period in 2005 to $38.2 million, operating income increased 68.8% to $8.8 million and station operating expense increased 2.3% to $27.6 million (station operating expense includes depreciation and amortization attributable to the stations). Net income increased 94.3% to $3.7 million ($.18 per fully diluted share) for the quarter ended December 31, 2006 compared to $1.9 million ($.09 per fully diluted share) for 2005. Free cash flow decreased 9.9% to $4.8 million for the quarter. On a same station basis for the quarter, net operating revenue increased 7.6% to $38.2 million, operating income increased 70.0% to $8.9 million and station operating expense increased 1.9% to $27.5 million.
For the year ended December 31, 2006 net operating revenue increased 1.5% over the comparable period in 2005 to $143.0 million, operating income increased 10.9% to $30.0 million and station operating expense was approximately even with 2005 at $104.4 million (station operating expense includes depreciation and amortization attributable to the stations). Net income increased 17.8% to $12.5 million ($.61 per fully diluted share) for the year ended December 31, 2006 compared to $10.6 million ($.51 per fully diluted share) for the same period in 2005. Free cash flow decreased 4.7% to $16.1 million for the year. On a same station basis for the year, net operating revenue increased 0.8% to $140.1 million, operating income increased 10.8% to $29.7 million and station operating expense decreased 1.0% to $101.9 million.
The increase in net income for the twelve month period ended December 31, 2006 is partially due to charges recognized for the same period ended December 31, 2005, including a $1.2 million impairment charge related to goodwill and FCC license values. Additionally, in 2005 the Company reported $2.7 million in other losses relating to disposal of assets including the disposal of a television tower in Victoria, TX, and the sale of land in Columbus, OH from which the Company received $1.5 million in cash

 


 

proceeds and a $700 thousand tax benefit. In 2006 the Company realized $500 thousand in other income primarily due to income received from altering one of our FM licenses in Keene, NH.
Capital expenditures in the fourth quarter of 2006 were $3.7 million with $1.8 million being spent as a result of acquisitions. For the 2006 fiscal year total capital expenditures were approximately $10.5 million with approximately $3.3 million being spent as a result of acquisitions. Additionally, capital expenditures for the year include $740 thousand relative to rebuilding a tower and transmitter building in Springfield, IL that were destroyed by a tornado. The Company received $370 thousand in funds from insurance reimbursement related to this incident.
The attached Selected Supplemental Financial Data table discloses “as reported,” “same station” and “pro forma” information by segment. The “as reported” amounts reflect our historical financial results and include the results of operations for stations that we did not own for the entire comparable period. The “same station” amounts reflect only the results of operations for stations that we owned for the entire comparable period. The “pro forma” amounts assume the 2006 and 2005 acquisitions and dispositions occurred as of January 1, 2005.
Saga Communications utilizes certain financial measures that are not calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) to assess its financial performance. Such non-GAAP measures include same station financial information and free cash flow. These non-GAAP measures are generally recognized by the broadcasting industry as measures of performance and are used by Saga to assess its financial performance including but not limited to evaluating individual station and market-level performance, evaluating overall operations and as a primary measure for incentive based compensation of executives and other members of management. Saga’s management believes these non-GAAP measures are used by analysts who report on the industry and by investors to provide meaningful comparisons between broadcasting groups, as well as an indicator of their market value. These measures are not measures of liquidity or of performance in accordance with GAAP, and should be viewed as a supplement to and not as a substitute for the results of operations presented on a GAAP basis including net operating revenue, operating income, and net income. Reconciliations for all of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure are attached in the Selected Financial Data Non-GAAP Disclosures tables.
Saga Communications, Inc. is a broadcasting company whose business is devoted to acquiring, developing and operating broadcast properties. The Company owns or operates broadcast properties in 26 markets, including 59 FM and 30 AM radio stations, 3 state radio networks, 2 farm radio networks, 5 television stations and 4 low-power television stations. As previously disclosed, the Company has entered into agreements to acquire an FM station serving the Asheville, NC radio market and an AM station and a FM station serving the Courtland, NY radio market. The closing of this transaction is subject to receiving FCC approval. For additional information, contact us at (313) 886-7070 or visit our website at www.sagacommunications.com.
