Other Income
 
During the third quarter of 2016, the Company sold a tower in our Norfolk, Virginia market for approximately $1,619,000 to SBA Towers IX, LLC (“SBA”). Subsequently, we entered into a ten year lease for tower space from SBA with three renewal periods of five years each. The transactions described have been accounted for as a sale-leaseback transaction. Accordingly, the Company recognized a gain on the sale of assets of approximately $1,415,000, which is the amount of the gain on sale in excess of present value of future lease payments and will recognize the remaining approximately $65,000 in proportion to the related gross rental charged to expense over the term of the lease. The gain is recorded in the other operating (income) expense, net in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income.
 
During the second quarter of 2015, two transmitters in our Victoria, Texas market were significantly damaged by lightning. The Company’s insurance policy provided coverage for the replacement cost of the transmitters. The insurance settlement was finalized during the second quarter and the Company received cash proceeds of $777,000, resulting in a $417,000 gain. The gain on insurance settlement represents the difference between the replacement cost and carrying value of the transmitters. The gain is recorded in discontinued operations, in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income.
