PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

General

Lamar Advertising Company, referred to in this Annual Report as the “Company” or “Lamar Advertising” or “we” is one of the largest outdoor advertising companies in the United States based on number of displays and has operated under the Lamar name since 1902. We operate in a single operating and reporting segment, advertising. We sell advertising on billboards, buses, shelters, benches and logo plates. As of December 31, 2012, we owned and operated over 144,000 billboard advertising displays in 44 states, Canada and Puerto Rico, over 115,000 logo advertising displays in 22 states and the province of Ontario, Canada, and operated over 34,000 transit advertising displays in 15 states, Canada and Puerto Rico. We offer our customers a fully integrated service, satisfying all aspects of their billboard display requirements from ad copy production to placement and maintenance.

Our Business

We operate three types of outdoor advertising displays: billboards, logo signs and transit advertising displays.

Billboards. We sell most of our advertising space on two types of billboards: bulletins and posters.

• Bulletins are generally large, illuminated advertising structures that are located on major highways and target vehicular traffic.

• Posters are generally smaller advertising structures that are located on major traffic arteries and city streets and target vehicular and pedestrian traffic.

In addition to these traditional billboards, we also sell digital billboards, which are generally located on major traffic arteries and city streets. As of December 31, 2012, we owned and operated over 1,700 digital billboard advertising displays in 40 states, Canada and Puerto Rico.

Logo signs. We sell advertising space on logo signs located near highway exits.

• Logo signs generally advertise nearby gas, food, camping, lodging and other attractions.

We are the largest provider of logo signs in the United States, operating 22 of the 26 privatized state logo sign contracts. As of December 31, 2012, we operated over 115,000 logo sign advertising displays in 22 states and Canada.

Transit advertising displays. We also sell advertising space on the exterior and interior of public transportation vehicles, transit shelters and benches in over 60 markets. As of December 31, 2012, we operated over 34,000 transit advertising displays in 15 states, Canada and Puerto Rico.

Corporate History

We have operated under the Lamar name since our founding in 1902 and have been publicly traded on NASDAQ under the symbol “LAMR” since 1996. We completed a reorganization on July 20, 1999 that created our current holding company structure. At that time, the operating company (then called Lamar Advertising Company) was renamed Lamar Media Corp., and all of the operating company’s stockholders became stockholders of a new holding company. The new holding company then took the Lamar Advertising Company name, and Lamar Media Corp. became a wholly owned subsidiary of Lamar Advertising Company.

In this Annual Report, we refer to Lamar Advertising Company and its consolidated subsidiaries, unless the context otherwise requires, as the “Company” or “we” and Lamar Advertising’s wholly owned subsidiary Lamar Media Corp. as “Lamar Media.”

We make our annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K, and amendments to these reports available free of charge through our website, www.lamar.com, as soon as reasonably practicable after filing them with, or furnishing them to, the Securities and Exchange Commission. Information contained on the website is not part of this Annual Report.

Operating Strategies

We strive to be a leading provider of outdoor advertising services in each of the markets that we serve, and our operating strategies for achieving that goal include:

Continuing to provide high quality local sales and service. We seek to identify and closely monitor the needs of our customers and to provide them with a full complement of high quality advertising services. Local advertising constituted approximately 78% of our net revenues for the year ended December 31, 2012, which management believes is higher than the industry average. We believe that the experience of our regional, territory and local managers has contributed greatly to our success. For example, our regional managers have been with us for an average of 29 years. In an effort to provide high quality sales and service at the local level, we employed approximately 800 local account executives as of December 31, 2012. Local account executives are typically supported by additional local staff and have the ability to draw upon the resources of our central office, as well as our offices in other markets, in the event business opportunities or customers’ needs support such an allocation of resources.

Continuing a centralized control and decentralized management structure. Our management believes that, for our particular business, centralized control and a decentralized organization provide for greater economies of scale and are more responsive to local market demands. Therefore, we maintain centralized accounting and financial control over our local operations, but our local managers are responsible for the day-to-day operations in each local market and are compensated according to that market’s financial performance.

Continuing to focus on internal growth. Within our existing markets, we seek to increase our revenue and improve cash flow by employing highly-targeted local marketing efforts to improve our display occupancy rates and by increasing advertising rates where and when demand can absorb rate increases. Our local offices spearhead this effort and respond to local customer demands quickly.

In addition, we routinely invest in upgrading our existing displays and constructing new displays. During the last ten years we invested approximately $1.2 billion in capitalized expenditures, which include improvements to our existing displays and in constructing new displays. Our regular improvement and expansion of our advertising display inventory allows us to provide high quality service to our current advertisers and to attract new advertisers.

Continuing to pursue other outdoor advertising opportunities. We plan to pursue additional logo sign contracts. Logo sign opportunities arise periodically, both from states initiating new logo sign programs and states converting from government-owned and operated programs to privately-owned and operated programs. Furthermore, we plan to pursue additional tourist oriented directional sign programs in both the United States and Canada and also other motorist information signing programs as opportunities present themselves. In addition, in an effort to maintain market share, we continue to pursue attractive transit advertising opportunities as they become available.

Reinvesting in capital expenditures including digital technology. We have historically invested in capital expenditures, however, during 2009 and 2010, we significantly reduced our capital expenditures to position the Company to manage through the economic recession. As a result of the economic recovery, the Company began to reinvest in capital expenditures beginning in 2011. We spent approximately $106 million in total capital expenditures in fiscal 2012, of which $42.1 million was spent on digital technology. We expect our 2013 capitalized expenditures to approximate our spending in 2012.

COMPANY OPERATIONS

Billboard Advertising

We sell most of our advertising space on two types of billboard advertising displays: bulletins and posters. As of December 31, 2012, we owned and operated over 144,000 billboard advertising displays in 44 states, Canada and Puerto Rico. In 2012, we derived approximately 72% of our billboard advertising net revenues from bulletin sales and 28% from poster sales.

Bulletins are large, advertising structures (the most common size is fourteen feet high by forty-eight feet wide, or 672 square feet) consisting of panels on which advertising copy is displayed. We wrap advertising copy printed with computer-generated graphics on a single sheet of vinyl around the structure. To attract more attention, some of the panels may extend beyond the linear edges of the display face and may include three-dimensional embellishments. Because of their greater impact and higher cost, bulletins are usually located on major highways and target vehicular traffic. At December 31, 2012, we operated approximately 68,000 bulletin displays.

We generally sell individually-selected bulletin space to advertisers for the duration of the contract (usually one to twelve months). We also sell bulletins as part of a rotary plan under which we rotate the advertising copy from one bulletin location to another within a particular market at stated intervals (usually every sixty to ninety days) to achieve greater reach within that market.

5

Posters are smaller advertising structures (the most common size is eleven feet high by twenty-three feet wide, or 250 square feet; we also operate junior posters, which are five feet high by eleven feet wide, or 55 square feet). Poster panels utilize a single flexible sheet of polyethylene material that inserts into the face of the panel. Posters are concentrated on major traffic arteries and target vehicular traffic, and junior posters are concentrated on city streets and target hard-to-reach pedestrian traffic and nearby residents. At December 31, 2012, we operated approximately 76,000 poster displays.

We generally sell poster space for thirty- and sixty-day periods in packages called “showings,” which comprise a given number of displays in a specified market area. We place and spread out the displays making up a showing in well-traveled areas to reach a wide audience in the particular market.

In addition to the traditional displays described above, we also sell digital billboards. Digital billboards are large electronic light emitting diode (LED) displays (the most common sizes are fourteen feet high by forty feet wide, or 560 square feet; ten and a half feet high by thirty six feet wide, or 378 square feet; and ten feet high by twenty-one feet wide, or 210 square feet) that are generally located on major traffic arteries and city streets. Digital billboards are capable of generating over one billion colors and vary in brightness based on ambient conditions. They display completely digital advertising copy from various advertisers in a slide show fashion, rotating each advertisement approximately every 6 to 8 seconds. At December 31, 2012, we operated over 1,700 digital billboards in various markets, which represents approximately 15% of billboard advertising net revenue.

We own the physical structures on which the advertising copy is displayed. We build the structures on locations we either own or lease. In each local office one employee typically performs site leasing activities for the markets served by that office. See Item 2. — “Properties.”

In the majority of our markets, our local production staffs perform the full range of activities required to create and install billboard advertising displays. Production work includes creating the advertising copy design and layout, coordinating its printing and installing the designs on the displays. We provide our production services to local advertisers and to advertisers that are not represented by advertising agencies, as most national advertisers represented by advertising agencies use preprinted designs that require only our installation. Our talented design staff uses state-of-the-art technology to prepare creative, eye-catching displays for our customers. We can also help with the strategic placement of advertisements throughout an advertiser’s market by using software that allows us to analyze the target audience and its demographics. Our artists also assist in developing marketing presentations, demonstrations and strategies to attract new customers.

In marketing billboard displays to advertisers, we compete with other forms of out-of-home advertising and other media. When selecting the media and provider through which to advertise, advertisers consider a number of factors and advertising providers which are described in the section entitled — “Competition” below.

Logo Sign Advertising

We entered the logo sign advertising business in 1988 and have become the largest provider of logo sign services in the United States, operating 22 of the 26 privatized state logo contracts. We erect logo signs, which generally advertise nearby gas, food, camping, lodging and other attractions, and directional signs, which direct vehicle traffic to nearby services and tourist attractions, near highway exits. As of December 31, 2012, we operated over 38,000 logo sign structures containing over 115,000 logo advertising displays in the United States and Canada.

We operate the logo sign contracts in the province of Ontario, Canada and in the following states:

Colorado	Georgia	Louisiana	Minnesota	Montana	New Jersey	Oklahoma
Delaware	Kansas	Maine	Mississippi	Nebraska	New Mexico	South Carolina
Florida	Kentucky	Michigan	Missouri(1)	Nevada	Ohio	Utah
Virginia

(1) The logo sign contract in Missouri is operated by a 66 2/3% owned partnership.

We also operate the tourist oriented directional signing (“TODS”) programs for the states of Colorado, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Michigan, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Jersey, Ohio, Virginia and the province of Ontario, Canada.

Our logo and TODS operations are decentralized. Generally, each office is staffed with an experienced local general manager, local sales and office staff and a local signing sub-contractor. This decentralization allows the management staff of Interstate Logos, L.L.C. (the subsidiary that operates all of the logo and directional sign-related businesses) to travel extensively to the various operations and serve in a technical and management advisory capacity and monitor regulatory and contract compliance. We also run a silk screening operation in Baton Rouge, Louisiana and a display construction company in Atlanta, Georgia.

6

State logo sign contracts represent the exclusive right to erect and operate logo signs within a state for a period of time. The terms of the contracts vary, but generally range from five to ten years, with additional renewal terms. Each logo sign contract generally allows the state to terminate the contract prior to its expiration and, in most cases, with compensation for the termination to be paid to the company. When a logo sign contract expires, we transfer ownership of the advertising structures to the state. Depending on the contract, we may or may not be entitled to compensation at that time. Of our twenty-three logo sign contracts in place, in the United States and Canada, at December 31, 2012, three are subject to renewal in 2013.

States usually award new logo sign contracts and renew expiring logo sign contracts through an open proposal process. In bidding for new and renewal contracts, we compete against three other national logo sign providers, as well as local companies based in the state soliciting proposals.

In marketing logo signs to advertisers, we compete with other forms of out-of-home advertising and other media. When selecting the media and provider through which to advertise, advertisers consider a number of factors and advertising providers which are described in the section entitled — “Competition” below.

Transit Advertising

We entered into the transit advertising business in 1993 as a way to complement our existing business and maintain market share in certain markets. We provide transit advertising displays on bus shelters, benches and buses in over 60 transit markets, and our production staff provides a full range of creative and installation services to our transit advertising customers. As of December 31, 2012, we operated over 34,000 transit advertising displays in 15 states, Canada and Puerto Rico.

Municipalities usually award new transit advertising contracts and renew expiring transit advertising contracts through an open bidding process. In bidding for new and renewal contracts, we compete against national outdoor advertising providers and local, on-premise sign providers and sign construction companies. Transit advertising operators incur significant start-up costs to build and install the advertising structures (such as transit shelters) upon being awarded contracts.

In marketing transit advertising displays to advertisers, we compete with other forms of out-of-home advertising and other media. When selecting the media and provider through which to advertise, advertisers consider a number of factors and advertising providers which are described in the section entitled — “Competition” below.

COMPETITION

Although the outdoor advertising industry has encountered a wave of consolidation, the industry remains fragmented. The industry is comprised of several large outdoor advertising and media companies with operations in multiple markets, as well as smaller, local companies operating a limited number of structures in one or a few local markets.

Although we primarily focus on small to mid-size markets where we can attain a strong market share, in each of our markets, we compete against other providers of outdoor advertising and other types of media, including:

• Larger outdoor advertising providers, such as (i) Clear Channel Outdoor Holdings, Inc., which operates billboards, street furniture displays, transit displays and other out-of-home advertising displays in North America and worldwide and (ii) CBS Outdoor, a division of CBS Corporation, which operates traditional outdoor, street furniture and transit advertising properties in North America and worldwide. Clear Channel Outdoor and CBS Outdoor each have corporate relationships with large media conglomerates and may have greater total resources, product offerings and opportunities for cross-selling than we do.

• Other forms of media, such as broadcast and cable television, radio, print media, direct mail marketing, telephone directories and the Internet.

• An increasing variety of out-of-home advertising media, such as advertising displays in shopping centers, malls, airports, stadiums, movie theaters and supermarkets and advertising displays on taxis, trains and buses.

In selecting the form of media through which to advertise, advertisers evaluate their ability to target audiences having a specific demographic profile, lifestyle, brand or media consumption or purchasing behavior or audiences located in, or traveling through, a particular geography. Advertisers also compare the relative costs of available media, evaluating the number of impressions (potential viewings), exposure (the opportunity for advertising to be seen) and circulation (traffic volume in a market), as well as potential effectiveness, quality of related services (such as advertising copy design and layout) and customer service. In competing with other media, we believe that outdoor advertising is relatively more cost-efficient than other media, allowing advertisers to reach broader audiences and target specific geographic areas or demographics groups within markets.

7

We believe that our strong emphasis on sales and customer service and our position as a major provider of advertising services in each of our primary markets enables us to compete effectively with the other outdoor advertising companies, as well as with other media, within those markets.

CUSTOMERS

Our customer base is diverse. The table below sets forth the ten industries from which we derived most of our billboard advertising revenues for the year ended December 31, 2012, as well as the percentage of billboard advertising revenues attributable to the advertisers in those industries. The individual advertisers in these industries accounted for approximately 74% of our billboard advertising net revenues in the year ended December 31, 2012. No individual advertiser accounted for more than 1.0% of our billboard advertising net revenues in that period.

REGULATION

Outdoor advertising is subject to governmental regulation at the federal, state and local levels. Regulations generally restrict the size, spacing, lighting and other aspects of advertising structures and pose a significant barrier to entry and expansion in many markets.

Federal law, principally the Highway Beautification Act of 1965 (the “HBA”), regulates outdoor advertising on Federal — Aid Primary, Interstate and National Highway Systems roads. The HBA requires states to “effectively control” outdoor advertising along these roads, and mandates a state compliance program and state standards regarding size, spacing and lighting. The HBA requires any state or political subdivision that compels the removal of a lawful billboard along a Federal — Aid Primary or Interstate highway to pay just compensation to the billboard owner.

All states have passed billboard control statutes and regulations at least as restrictive as the federal requirements, including laws requiring the removal of illegal signs at the owner’s expense (and without compensation from the state). Although we believe that the number of our billboards that may be subject to removal as illegal is immaterial, and no state in which we operate has banned billboards entirely, from time to time governments have required us to remove signs and billboards legally erected in accordance with federal, state and local permit requirements and laws. Municipal and county governments generally also have sign controls as part of their zoning laws and building codes. We contest laws and regulations that we believe unlawfully restrict our constitutional or other legal rights and may adversely impact the growth of our outdoor advertising business.

Using federal funding for transportation enhancement programs, state governments have purchased and removed billboards for beautification, and may do so again in the future. Under the power of eminent domain, state or municipal governments have laid claim to property and forced the removal of billboards. Under a concept called amortization by which a governmental body asserts that a billboard operator has earned compensation by continued operation over time, local governments have attempted to force removal of legal but nonconforming billboards (i.e., billboards that conformed with applicable zoning regulations when built but which do not conform to current zoning regulations). Although the legality of amortization is questionable, it has been upheld in some instances. Often, municipal and county governments also have sign controls as part of their zoning laws, with some local governments prohibiting construction of new billboards or allowing new construction only to replace existing structures. Although we have generally been able to obtain satisfactory compensation for those of our billboards purchased or removed as a result of governmental action, there is no assurance that this will continue to be the case in the future.

8

We have also introduced and intend to expand the deployment of digital billboards that display static digital advertising copy from various advertisers that change every 6 to 8 seconds. We have encountered some existing regulations that restrict or prohibit these types of digital displays but it has not yet materially impacted our digital deployment. Since digital billboards have only recently been developed and introduced into the market on a large scale, existing regulations that currently do not apply to them by their terms could be revised to impose greater restrictions. These regulations may impose greater restrictions on digital billboards due to alleged concerns over aesthetics or driver safety.

In January 2013, Scenic America, Inc., a nonprofit membership organization, filed a lawsuit against the United States Department of Transportation (USDOT) and the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA). The complaint alleges that the FHWA exceeded its authority when, in 2007, the agency issued guidance to assist its division offices in evaluating state regulations that authorize the construction and operation of digital billboards that are in conformance with restrictions on “intermittent”, “flashing” or “moving” lights, which restrictions are contained in the individual federal-state agreements that implement the provisions of the HBA. The complaint also alleges that in issuing the digital billboard guidance, the FHWA violated the Administrative Procedures Act by not first engaging in formal rulemaking. The complaint further alleges that the FHWA guidance violated the HBA because it adopted “a new lighting standard” without first amending the provisions of the federal-state agreements. Finally, the complaint alleges that the guidance violates the HBA because digital billboards are themselves “inconsistent with customary use” of outdoor advertising, as that term is used in the HBA. As the principal remedy for these alleged violations, the complaint seeks an injunction vacating the FHWA guidance. If the FHWA guidance is vacated, the agency could then elect to undertake rulemaking or other new administrative action with respect to digital billboards that, if enacted in a way that placed additional restrictions on digital billboards, ultimately could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

In addition, due to their recent development, relatively few large scale studies have been conducted regarding driver safety issues, if any, related to digital billboards. The U.S. Department of Transportation Federal Highway Administration conducted a study on whether the presence of digital billboards along roadways is associated with a reduction of driver safety for the public. We understand that this study is currently under internal review and the date of its public release is unknown. If the results of this study include adverse findings, it may result in regulations at the federal or state level that impose greater restrictions on digital billboards.

EMPLOYEES

We employed approximately 3,000 people as of December 31, 2012. Approximately 200 employees were engaged in overall management and general administration at our management headquarters in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, and the remainder, including approximately 800 local account executives, were employed in our operating offices.

Fifteen of our local offices employ billposters and construction personnel who are covered by collective bargaining agreements. We believe that our relationship with our employees, including our 116 unionized employees, is good, and we have never experienced a strike or work stoppage.

INFLATION

In the last three years, inflation has not had a significant impact on us.

Our revenues and operating results are subject to seasonality. Typically, we experience our strongest financial performance in the summer and fall, and our weakest financial performance in the first quarter of the calendar year, partly because retailers cut back their advertising spending immediately following the holiday shopping season. We expect this trend to continue in the future. Because a significant portion of our expenses is fixed, a reduction in revenues in any quarter is likely to result in a period-to-period decline in operating performance and net earnings.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

The Company’s substantial debt may adversely affect its business, financial condition and financial results.

The Company has borrowed substantially in the past and will continue to borrow in the future. At December 31, 2012, Lamar Advertising Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Lamar Media, had approximately $2.16 billion of total debt outstanding, consisting of approximately $384.7 million in bank debt, $339.1 million of senior notes and $1.4 billion in various series of senior subordinated notes. Despite the level of debt presently outstanding, the terms of the indentures governing Lamar Media’s notes and the terms of the senior credit facility allow Lamar Media to incur substantially more debt, including approximately $242.3 million available for borrowing as of December 31, 2012 under the revolving senior credit facility.

The Company’s substantial debt and its use of cash flow from operations to make principal and interest payments on its debt may, among other things:

• make it more difficult for the Company to comply with the financial covenants in its senior credit facility, which could result in a default and an acceleration of all amounts outstanding under the facility;

• limit the cash flow available to fund the Company’s working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions or other general corporate requirements;

• limit the Company’s ability to obtain additional financing to fund future working capital, capital expenditures or other general corporate requirements;

• place the Company at a competitive disadvantage relative to those of its competitors that have less relative debt;

• force the Company to seek and obtain alternate or additional sources of funding, which may be unavailable, or may be on less favorable terms, or may require the Company to obtain the consent of lenders under its senior credit facility or the holders of its other debt;

• limit the Company’s flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in its business and industry; and

• increase the Company’s vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions.

Any of these problems could adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition and financial results.

Restrictions in the Company’s and Lamar Media’s debt agreements reduce operating flexibility and contain covenants and restrictions that create the potential for defaults, which could adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition and financial results.

The terms of the indentures relating to Lamar Media’s senior credit facility and the indentures relating to Lamar Media’s outstanding notes restrict the ability of the Company and Lamar Media to, among other things:

• incur or repay debt;

• dispose of assets;

• create liens;

• make investments;

• enter into affiliate transactions; and

• pay dividends and make inter-company distributions.

The terms of Lamar Media’s senior credit facility also restrict it from exceeding specified total holdings debt ratio and senior debt ratio and require it to maintain a specified minimum fixed charges coverage ratio. Please see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Liquidity and Capital Resources” for a description of the specific financial ratio requirements under the senior credit facility.

10

The Company’s ability to comply with the financial covenants in the senior credit facility and the indentures governing Lamar Media’s outstanding notes (and to comply with similar covenants in any future agreements) depends on its operating performance, which in turn depends significantly on prevailing economic, financial and business conditions and other factors that are beyond the Company’s control. Therefore, despite its best efforts and execution of its strategic plan, the Company may be unable to comply with these financial covenants in the future.

Although we are currently in compliance with all financial covenants, the Company’s operating results were negatively impacted by the recent economic recession and there can be no assurance that the current economic environment will not further impact the Company’s results and, in turn, its ability to meet these requirements in the future. If Lamar Media fails to comply with its financial covenants, the lenders under the senior credit facility could accelerate all of the debt outstanding, which would create serious financial problems and could lead to a default under the indentures governing Lamar Media’s outstanding notes. Any of these events could adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition and financial results.

In addition, these restrictions reduce the Company’s operating flexibility and could prevent the Company from exploiting investment, acquisition, marketing, or other time-sensitive business opportunities.

The Company’s revenues are sensitive to general economic conditions and other external events beyond the Company’s control.

The Company sells advertising space on outdoor structures to generate revenues. Advertising spending is particularly sensitive to changes in economic conditions and has been adversely affected by the most recent economic recession, as evidenced by a 11.9% decline in the Company’s advertising revenues in the year ended December 31, 2009.

Additionally, the occurrence of any of the following external events could further depress the Company’s revenues:

• a widespread reallocation of advertising expenditures to other available media by significant users of the Company’s displays; and

• a decline in the amount spent on advertising in general or outdoor advertising in particular.

There is no guaranty that the potential conversion to a REIT that we are currently evaluating will be implemented or will be successful if implemented.

As previously disclosed, we are actively considering an election to real estate investment trust (REIT) status. On November 16, 2012, in conjunction with our review regarding a potential REIT election, we submitted a private letter ruling to the Internal Revenue Service. If we receive a favorable response and decide to proceed with a REIT election, we intend to make the election for the taxable year beginning January 1, 2014, subject to the approval of our board of directors. A favorable IRS ruling, if received, does not guarantee that we would succeed in qualifying as a REIT and there is no certainty as to the timing of a REIT election. We may not ultimately pursue a conversion to a REIT, and we can provide no assurance that a REIT conversion, if completed, will be successfully implemented or achieve the intended benefits.

If we are unable to continue to grow through acquisitions, it could adversely affect our future financial performance. In addition, if we are unable to successfully integrate any completed acquisitions, our financial performance would also be adversely affected.

The Company has historically grown through acquisitions. Due to factors related to the recent economic recession, our acquisition activity decreased starting in 2009. During the year ended December 31, 2012, we completed acquisitions for a total cash purchase price of approximately $206 million. We intend to continue to evaluate strategic acquisition opportunities as they arise.

The future success of our acquisition strategy could be adversely affected by many factors, including the following:

• the pool of suitable acquisition candidates is dwindling, and we may have a more difficult time negotiating acquisitions on favorable terms;

• we may face increased competition for acquisition candidates from other outdoor advertising companies, some of which have greater financial resources than we do, which may result in higher prices for those businesses and assets;

11

• we may not have access to the capital needed to finance potential acquisitions and may be unable to obtain any required consents from our current lenders to obtain alternate financing;

• we may be unable to integrate acquired businesses and assets effectively with our existing operations and systems as a result of unforeseen difficulties that could divert significant time, attention and effort from management that could otherwise be directed at developing existing business;

• we may be unable to retain key personnel of acquired businesses;

• we may not realize the benefits and cost savings anticipated in our acquisitions; and

• as the industry consolidates further, larger mergers and acquisitions may face substantial scrutiny under antitrust laws.

These obstacles to our opportunistic acquisition strategy may have an adverse effect on our future financial results.

The Company could suffer losses due to asset impairment charges for goodwill and other intangible assets.

The Company tested goodwill for impairment on December 31, 2012. Based on the Company’s review at December 31, 2012, no impairment charge was required. The Company continues to assess whether factors or indicators become apparent that would require an interim impairment test between our annual impairment test dates. For instance, if our market capitalization is below our equity book value for a period of time without recovery, we believe there is a strong presumption that would indicate a triggering event has occurred and it is more likely than not that the fair value of one or both of our reporting units are below their carrying amount. This would require us to test the reporting units for impairment of goodwill. If this presumption cannot be overcome a reporting unit could be impaired under ASC 350 “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” and a non-cash charge would be required. Any such charge could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s net earnings.

The Company faces competition from larger and more diversified outdoor advertisers and other forms of advertising that could hurt its performance.

While the Company enjoys a significant market share in many of its small and medium-sized markets, the Company faces competition from other outdoor advertisers and other media in all of its markets. Although the Company is one of the largest companies focusing exclusively on outdoor advertising in a relatively fragmented industry, it competes against larger companies with diversified operations, such as television, radio and other broadcast media. These diversified competitors have the advantage of cross-selling complementary advertising products to advertisers.

The Company also competes against an increasing variety of out-of-home advertising media, such as advertising displays in shopping centers, malls, airports, stadiums, movie theaters and supermarkets, and on taxis, trains and buses. To a lesser extent, the Company also faces competition from other forms of media, including radio, newspapers, direct mail advertising, telephone directories and the Internet. The industry competes for advertising revenue along the following dimensions: exposure (the number of “impressions” an advertisement makes), advertising rates (generally measured in cost-per-thousand impressions), ability to target specific demographic groups or geographies, effectiveness, quality of related services (such as advertising copy design and layout) and customer service. The Company may be unable to compete successfully along these dimensions in the future, and the competitive pressures that the Company faces could adversely affect its profitability or financial performance.

Federal, state and local regulation impact the Company’s operations, financial condition and financial results.

Outdoor advertising is subject to governmental regulation at the federal, state and local levels. Regulations generally restrict the size, spacing, lighting and other aspects of advertising structures and pose a significant barrier to entry and expansion in many markets.

Federal law, principally the Highway Beautification Act of 1965 (the “HBA”), regulates outdoor advertising on Federal — Aid Primary, Interstate and National Highway Systems roads. The HBA requires states to “effectively control” outdoor advertising along these roads, and mandates a state compliance program and state standards regarding size, spacing and lighting. The HBA requires any state or political subdivision that compels the removal of a lawful billboard along a Federal — Aid Primary or Interstate highway to pay just compensation to the billboard owner.

12

All states have passed billboard control statutes and regulations at least as restrictive as the federal requirements, including laws requiring the removal of illegal signs at the owner’s expense (and without compensation from the state). Although we believe that the number of our billboards that may be subject to removal as illegal is immaterial, and no state in which we operate has banned billboards entirely, from time to time governments have required us to remove signs and billboards legally erected in accordance with federal, state and local permit requirements and laws. Municipal and county governments generally also have sign controls as part of their zoning laws and building codes. We contest laws and regulations that we believe unlawfully restrict our constitutional or other legal rights and may adversely impact the growth of our outdoor advertising business.

Using federal funding for transportation enhancement programs, state governments have purchased and removed billboards for beautification, and may do so again in the future. Under the power of eminent domain, state or municipal governments have laid claim to property and forced the removal of billboards. Under a concept called amortization by which a governmental body asserts that a billboard operator has earned compensation by continued operation over time, local governments have attempted to force removal of legal but nonconforming billboards (i.e., billboards that conformed with applicable zoning regulations when built but which do not conform to current zoning regulations). Although the legality of amortization is questionable, it has been upheld in some instances. Often, municipal and county governments also have sign controls as part of their zoning laws, with some local governments prohibiting construction of new billboards or allowing new construction only to replace existing structures. Although we have generally been able to obtain satisfactory compensation for those of our billboards purchased or removed as a result of governmental action, there is no assurance that this will continue to be the case in the future.

We have also introduced and intend to expand the deployment of digital billboards that display static digital advertising copy from various advertisers that change every 6 to 8 seconds. We have encountered some existing regulations that restrict or prohibit these types of digital displays but it has not yet materially impacted our digital deployment. Since digital billboards have only recently been developed and introduced into the market on a large scale, existing regulations that currently do not apply to them by their terms could be revised to impose greater restrictions. These regulations may impose greater restrictions on digital billboards due to alleged concerns over aesthetics or driver safety.

In January 2013, Scenic America, Inc., a nonprofit membership organization, filed a lawsuit against the United States Department of Transportation (USDOT) and the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA). The complaint alleges that the FHWA exceeded its authority when, in 2007, the agency issued guidance to assist its division offices in evaluating state regulations that authorize the construction and operation of digital billboards that are in conformance with restrictions on “intermittent”, “flashing” or “moving” lights, which restrictions are contained in the individual federal-state agreements that implement the provisions of the HBA. The complaint also alleges that in issuing the digital billboard guidance, the FHWA violated the Administrative Procedures Act by not first engaging in formal rulemaking. The complaint further alleges that the FHWA guidance violated the HBA because it adopted “a new lighting standard” without first amending the provisions of the federal-state agreements. Finally, the complaint alleges that the guidance violates the HBA because digital billboards are themselves “inconsistent with customary use” of outdoor advertising, as that term is used in the HBA. As the principal remedy for these alleged violations, the complaint seeks an injunction vacating the FHWA guidance. If the FHWA guidance is vacated, the agency could then elect to undertake rulemaking or other new administrative action with respect to digital billboards that, if enacted in a way that placed additional restrictions on digital billboards, ultimately could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

In addition, due to their recent development, relatively few large scale studies have been conducted regarding driver safety issues, if any, related to digital billboards. The U.S. Department of Transportation Federal Highway Administration conducted a study on whether the presence of digital billboards along roadways is associated with a reduction of driver safety for the public. We understand that this study is currently under internal review and the date of its public release is currently unknown. If the results of this study include adverse findings, it may result in regulations at the federal or state level that impose greater restrictions on digital billboards. Any new restrictions could materially adversely affect both our existing inventory of digital billboards and our plans to expand our digital deployment.

The Company’s logo sign contracts are subject to state award and renewal.

In 2012, the Company generated approximately 5% of its revenues from state-awarded logo sign contracts. In bidding for these contracts, the Company competes against three other national logo sign providers, as well as numerous smaller, local logo sign providers. A logo sign provider incurs significant start-up costs upon being awarded a new contract. These contracts generally have a term of five to ten years, with additional renewal periods. Some states reserve the right to terminate a contract early, and most contracts require the state to pay compensation to the logo sign provider for early termination. At the end of the contract term, the logo sign provider transfers ownership of the logo sign structures to the state. Depending on the contract, the logo provider may or may not be entitled to compensation for the structures at the end of the contract term.

Of the Company’s 23 logo sign contracts in place at December 31, 2012, three are subject to renewal in 2013. The Company may be unable to renew its expiring contracts. The Company may also lose the bidding on new contracts.

13

The Company is controlled by significant stockholders who have the power to determine the outcome of all matters submitted to the stockholders for approval and whose interest in the Company may be different than yours.

As of December 31, 2012, members of the Reilly family, including Kevin P. Reilly, Jr., the Company’s Chairman and President, and Sean Reilly, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, owned in the aggregate approximately 17% of the Company’s outstanding common stock, assuming the conversion of all Class B common stock to Class A common stock. As of that date, their combined holdings represented 66% of the voting power of Lamar Advertising’s outstanding capital stock, which would give the Reilly family the power to:

• elect the Company’s entire board of directors;

• control the Company’s management and policies; and

• determine the outcome of any corporate transaction or other matter requiring stockholder approval, including charter amendments, mergers, consolidations and asset sales.

The Reilly family may have interests that are different than yours in making these decisions.

If the Company’s contingency plans relating to hurricanes fail, the resulting losses could hurt the Company’s business.

The Company has determined that it is uneconomical to insure against losses resulting from hurricanes and other natural disasters. Although the Company has developed contingency plans designed to mitigate the threat posed by hurricanes to advertising structures (e.g., removing advertising faces at the onset of a storm, when possible, which better permits the structures to withstand high winds during the storm), these plans could fail and significant losses could result.

ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS

None.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

Our management headquarters is located in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. We also own approximately 120 local operating facilities with front office administration and sales office space connected to back-shop poster and bulletin production space. In addition, the Company leases an additional 133 operating facilities at an aggregate lease expense for 2012 of approximately $7.2 million.

We own approximately 6,900 parcels of property beneath our outdoor advertising structures. As of December 31, 2012, we leased approximately 75,900 active outdoor sites, accounting for a total annual lease expense of approximately $195.1 million. This amount represented approximately 19% of billboard advertising net revenues for that period. These leases are for varying terms ranging from month-to-month to a term of over ten years, and many provide the Company with renewal options. There is no significant concentration of displays under any one lease or subject to negotiation with any one landlord. An important part of our management activity is to manage our lease portfolio and negotiate suitable lease renewals and extensions.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The Company from time to time is involved in litigation in the ordinary course of business, including disputes involving advertising contracts, site leases, employment claims and construction matters. The Company is also involved in routine administrative and judicial proceedings regarding billboard permits, fees and compensation for condemnations. The Company is not a party to any lawsuit or proceeding which, in the opinion of management, is likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR THE REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF SECURITIES

The Company’s Class A common stock has been publicly traded since August 2, 1996 and is currently listed on the NASDAQ Global Select Market under the symbol “LAMR.” As of December 31, 2012, the Class A common stock was held by 174 shareholders of record. The Company believes, however, that the actual number of beneficial holders of the Class A common stock may be substantially greater than the stated number of holders of record because a substantial portion of the Class A common stock is held in street name.

The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, the high and low sale prices for the Class A common stock:

	High		Low
Year ended December 31, 2011
First Quarter	$	41.88	$	34.67
Second Quarter		37.47		25.80
Third Quarter		28.96		16.49
Fourth Quarter		27.65		16.50
Year ended December 31, 2012
First Quarter	$	34.19	$	27.08
Second Quarter		32.85		23.37
Third Quarter		37.75		26.21
Fourth Quarter		41.49		36.08

The Company’s Class B common stock is not publicly traded and is held of record by members of the Reilly family and the Reilly Family Limited Partnership (the “RFLP”). Kevin P. Reilly, Jr., our President and Chairman of the Board, is the managing general partner of the RFLP and Sean E. Reilly, our Chief Executive Officer, and Wendell Reilly and Anna Reilly, each of whom is a member of our board of directors are also general partners in the RFLP.

The Company’s Series AA preferred stock is entitled to preferential dividends, in an annual aggregate amount of $364,904, before any dividends may be paid on the common stock. All dividends related to the Company’s preferred stock are paid on a quarterly basis. In addition, the Company’s senior credit facility and other indebtedness have terms restricting the payment of dividends. The Company declared a special cash dividend of $3.25 per share of its common stock in February 2007 to stockholders of record on March 22, 2007, which was paid on March 30, 2007. Any future determination as to the payment of dividends will be subject to the limitations described above, will be at the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors and will depend on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition, capital requirements and other factors deemed relevant by the Board of Directors, including the potential determination to elect REIT status.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

This report contains forward-looking statements. These statements are subject to risks and uncertainties including those described in Item 1A under the heading “Risk Factors,” and elsewhere in this Annual Report, that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in these forward-looking statements. The Company cautions investors not to place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements contained in this document. These statements speak only as of the date of this document, and the Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise the statements, except as may be required by law.

Lamar Advertising Company

The following is a discussion of the consolidated financial condition and results of operations of the Company for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of the Company and the related notes.

OVERVIEW

The Company’s net revenues are derived primarily from the sale of advertising on outdoor advertising displays owned and operated by the Company. The Company relies on sales of advertising space for its revenues. Revenue growth is based on many factors that include the Company’s ability to increase occupancy of its existing advertising displays; raise advertising rates; and acquire new advertising displays and its operating results are therefore affected by general economic conditions, as well as trends in the advertising industry. Advertising spending is particularly sensitive to changes in general economic conditions, which affect the rates that the Company is able to charge for advertising on its displays and its ability to maximize advertising sales or occupancy on its displays.

Historically, the Company made strategic acquisitions of outdoor advertising assets to increase the number of outdoor advertising displays it operates in existing and new markets. While the Company has significantly reduced its acquisition activity over the last three years, it will continue to evaluate and pursue strategic acquisition opportunities as they arise. The Company has financed its historical acquisitions and intends to finance any future acquisition activity from available cash, borrowings under its senior credit facility or the issuance of debt or equity securities. See “Liquidity and Capital Resources” below. During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company completed acquisitions for a total cash purchase price of approximately $206 million, which included the purchase of NextMedia Outdoor, Inc. that closed October 31, 2012.

The Company’s business requires expenditures for maintenance and capitalized costs associated with the construction of new billboard displays, the entrance into and renewal of logo sign and transit contracts, and the purchase of real estate and operating equipment. The following table presents a breakdown of capitalized expenditures for the past three years:

	2012		2011		2010
	(In thousands)
Billboard — Traditional	$	29,061	$	34,425	$	9,506
Billboard — Digital		42,134		41,250		13,214
Logos		8,704		10,141		8,483
Transit		259		817		876
Land and buildings		12,797		4,501		2,531
PP&E		12,615		15,936		8,842
Total capital expenditures	$	105,570	$	107,070	$	43,452

We expect our capital expenditures to be approximately $100 million in 2013.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following table presents certain items in the Consolidated Statements of Operations as a percentage of net revenues for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010:

	Year Ended December 31,
	2012			2011			2010
Net revenues		100.0	%		100.0	%		100.0	%
Operating expenses:
Direct advertising expenses		35.4			36.1			36.5
General and administrative expenses		17.9			17.9			18.2
Corporate expenses		4.5			4.1			4.3
Depreciation and amortization		25.0			26.4			28.6
Operating income		18.4			16.4			12.8

Interest expense		13.3			15.1			17.0
Net income (loss)		0.8			0.8			(3.7	)

Year ended December 31, 2012 compared to Year ended December 31, 2011

Net revenues increased $49.4 million or 4.4% to $1.18 billion for the year ended December 31, 2012 from $1.13 billion for the same period in 2011. This increase was attributable primarily to an increase in billboard net revenues of $39.1 million or 3.8% over the prior period, an increase in logo sign revenue of $3.7 million, which represents an increase of 6.5% over the prior period, and a $6.6 million increase in transit revenue, which represents an increase of 10.9% over the prior period.

For the year ended December 31, 2012, there was a $35.2 million increase in net revenues as compared to acquisition-adjusted net revenue for the year ended December 31, 2011. The $35.2 million increase in revenue primarily consists of a $28.0 million increase in billboard revenue, a $2.2 million increase in logo revenue and a $5.0 million increase in transit revenue over the acquisition-adjusted net revenue for the comparable period in 2011. This increase in revenue represents an increase of 3.1% over the comparable period in 2011. See “Reconciliations” below.

Operating expenses, exclusive of depreciation and amortization and gain on sale of assets, increased $24.9 million or 3.8% to $682.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2012 from $658.0 million for the same period in 2011. There was an $18.3 million increase in operating expenses related to the operations of our outdoor advertising assets and a $6.6 million increase in corporate expenses.

Depreciation and amortization expense decreased $3.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2012 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2011, primarily due to a reduction in the number of non-performing structures that were dismantled during the period as compared to the year ended December 31, 2012.

The Company recorded a gain on disposition of assets of $13.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, which includes a gain of $9.8 million related to two asset swap transactions during the year.

Due to the above factors, operating income increased $31.3 million to $217.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2012 compared to $186.4 million for the same period in 2011.

During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company recognized a $41.6 million loss on debt extinguishment related to the early extinguishment of Lamar Media’s 6 5/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2015, 6 5/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2015—Series B and 6 5/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2015—Series C (collectively, the “6 5/8% Senior Subordinated Notes”) and the prepayment of $295 million of the Term B Loan under Lamar Media’s senior credit facility. Approximately $23.2 million of the loss is a non-cash expense attributable to the write off of unamortized debt issuance fees and unamortized discounts associated with the retired debt. See — “Uses of Cash — Tender Offers and Debt Repayment” for more information.

Interest expense decreased approximately $14.0 million from $171.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 to $157.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, due to the reduction in total debt outstanding as well as a decrease in interest rates resulting from the Company’s recent refinancing transactions. See —“Uses of Cash — Tender Offers and Debt Repayment” for more information.

18

The increase in operating income and decrease in interest expense offset by the loss on extinguishment of debt discussed above resulted in a $4.1 million increase in net income before income taxes. The Company recorded income tax expense of $9.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2012. The effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2012 was 49.1%, which is higher than the statutory rate due to permanent differences resulting from non-deductible expenses and amortization, primarily non-deductible compensation expense related to stock based compensation calculated in accordance with ASC718.

As a result of the above factors, the Company recognized net income for the year ended December 31, 2012 of $9.8 million, as compared to net income of $8.6 million for the same period in 2011.

Reconciliations:

Because acquisitions occurring after December 31, 2010 (the “acquired assets”) have contributed to our net revenue results for the periods presented, we provide 2011 acquisition-adjusted net revenue, which adjusts our 2011 net revenue for the year ended December 31, 2011 by adding to it the net revenue generated by the acquired assets prior to our acquisition of these assets for the same time frame that those assets were owned in the year ended December 31, 2012. We provide this information as a supplement to net revenues to enable investors to compare periods in 2012 and 2011 on a more consistent basis without the effects of acquisitions. Management uses this comparison to assess how well we are performing within our existing assets.

Acquisition-adjusted net revenue is not determined in accordance with GAAP. For this adjustment, we measure the amount of pre-acquisition revenue generated by the assets during the period in 2011 that corresponds with the actual period we have owned the assets in 2012 (to the extent within the period to which this report relates). We refer to this adjustment as “acquisition net revenue.”

Adjusted totals	$	1,182,901	$	1,147,744

Year ended December 31, 2011 compared to Year ended December 31, 2010

Net revenues increased $41.2 million or 3.8% to $1.13 billion for the year ended December 31, 2011 from $1.09 billion for the same period in 2010. This increase was attributable primarily to an increase in billboard net revenues of $31.0 million, or 3.1%, over the prior period, a $2.4 million increase in transit revenue, or 4.2%, over the prior period and a $7.9 million increase in logo revenue, or 15.9%, over the prior period.

Of the $31.0 million increase in billboard net revenue $8.2 million was generated by adding approximately 240 new digital display panels and approximately $22.8 million was a result of increased rate and occupancy, over the comparable period in 2010. The $7.9 million increase in logo revenue consists of a $4.0 million increase due to changes in logo contracts and an increase in internal growth of $3.9 million.

Net revenues for the year ended December 31, 2011, as compared to acquisition-adjusted net revenue for the year ended December 31, 2010, increased $36.4 million or 3.3% primarily as a result of increased rate and occupancy, as compared to the same period in 2010. See “Reconciliations” below.

Operating expenses, exclusive of depreciation and amortization and gain on sale of assets, increased $13.0 million, or 2.0%, to $658.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 from $645.0 million for the same period in 2010. There was a $6.2 million decrease in non-cash compensation expense related to equity based compensation, offset by a $16.2 million increase in operating expenses related to the cost of operating the Company’s core assets and a $3.0 million increase in corporate expenses.

Depreciation and amortization expense decreased $13.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2010. The decrease is primarily a result of the reduction in the number of non performing structures dismantled during 2011 as compared to the same period in 2010.

19

Due to the above factors, operating income increased $46.9 million to $186.4 million for year ended December 31, 2011 compared to $139.5 million for the same period in 2010.

Interest expense decreased $14.9 million from $186.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 to $171.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 primarily resulting from the reduction in total debt outstanding as well as a decrease in interest rates resulting from the refinancing of the Company’s senior credit facility during 2010.

During the period ended December 31, 2011, the Company repurchased an aggregate principal amount of $47,900 of its outstanding 6 5/8% Senior Subordinated Notes. The Company repurchased the 6 5/8% Senior Subordinated Notes at an average price of 98.5% of the original amount of the notes through open-market transactions. As a result of the repurchases, the Company recorded a $0.7 million loss on early extinguishment of debt for the year ended December 31, 2011 of which approximately $1.4 million was a non-cash expense related to the previously capitalized unamortized debt issuance fees and discounts. During the comparable period in 2010, the Company recognized a $17.4 million loss on the early extinguishment of debt resulting from its 2010 refinancing transactions. Approximately $12.6 million of the 2010 loss is a non-cash expense attributable to the write off of unamortized debt issuance fees related to the tender offer to repurchase Lamar Media’s 7 1/4% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2013 (the “7 1/4% Senior Subordinated Notes”) and refinancing of its senior credit facility. The remaining $4.8 million represented the net cash loss related to the tender offer and extinguishment of the 7 1/4% Senior Subordinated Notes.

The increase in operating income and decrease in interest expense and loss on extinguishment of debt resulted in a $78.7 million increase in net income before income taxes. The increase in net income for the period resulted in an increase in income tax expense as compared to the same period during 2010. The effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2011 was 43.6%, which is higher than the statutory rate due to permanent differences resulting from non-deductible compensation expense related to stock options in accordance with ASC 718 and other non-deductible expenses and amortization.

As a result of the above factors, the Company recognized net income for the year ended December 31, 2011 of $8.6 million, as compared to a net loss of $40.1 million for the same period in 2010.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Overview

The Company has historically satisfied its working capital requirements with cash from operations and borrowings under its senior credit facility. The Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Lamar Media Corp., is the principal borrower under the senior credit facility and maintains all corporate cash balances. Any cash requirements of the Company, therefore, must be funded by distributions from Lamar Media.

Sources of Cash

Total Liquidity at December 31, 2012. As of December 31, 2012 we had approximately $301.2 million of total liquidity, which is comprised of approximately $58.9 million in cash and cash equivalents and approximately $242.3 million of availability under the revolving portion of our senior credit facility. We are currently in compliance with all applicable restrictive covenants under the senior credit facility and we would remain in compliance after giving effect to borrowing the full amount available to us under the revolving portion of the senior credit facility.

Cash Generated by Operations. For the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010 our cash provided by operating activities was $375.9 million, $318.8 million and $322.8 million, respectively. While our net income was approximately $9.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company generated cash from operating activities of $375.9 million during 2012 primarily due to adjustments needed to reconcile net income to cash provided by operating activities, which includes depreciation and amortization of $296.1 million. We generated cash flows from operations during 2012 in excess of our cash needs for operations and capital expenditures as described herein. We used the excess cash generated principally to reduce our outstanding indebtedness and fund our acquisitions. See — “Cash Flows” for more information.

During 2013, the Company intends to use excess cash on hand primarily to reduce outstanding indebtedness.

Credit Facilities. On February 9, 2012, Lamar Media entered into a restatement agreement with respect to its existing senior credit facility in order to fund a new $100 million Term loan A facility and to make certain covenant changes to the senior credit facility, which was entered into on April 28, 2010, as amended on June 11, 2010, November 18, 2010 and February 9, 2012 (the “senior credit facility”), for which JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. serves as administrative agent. The senior credit facility consists of a $250 million revolving credit facility, a $270 million term loan A-1 facility, a $30 million term loan A-2 facility, a $100 million term loan A-3 facility, a $575 million term loan B facility and a $300 million incremental facility, which may be increased by up to an additional $200 million, based upon our satisfaction of a senior debt ratio test (as described below), of less than or equal to 3.25 to 1. Lamar Media is the borrower under the senior credit facility, except with respect to the $30 million term loan A-2 facility for which Lamar Media’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Lamar Advertising of Puerto Rico, Inc. is the borrower. We may also from time to time designate additional wholly-owned subsidiaries as subsidiary borrowers under the incremental loan facility that can borrow up to $110 million of the incremental facility. Incremental loans may be in the form of additional term loan tranches or increases in the revolving credit facility. Our lenders have no obligation to make additional loans to us, or any designated subsidiary borrower, under the incremental facility, but may enter into such commitments in their sole discretion.

As of December 31, 2012, Lamar Media had approximately $242.3 million of unused capacity under the revolving credit facility included in the senior credit facility and the aggregate balance outstanding under the senior credit facility was $384.7 million.

Note Offerings. On October 30, 2012, Lamar Media completed an institutional private placement of $535 million aggregate principal amount of 5% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2023 (the “5% Senior Subordinated Notes”). The institutional private placement resulted in net proceeds to Lamar Media, after the payment fees and expenses, of approximately $527.1 million. Lamar Media used the proceeds of this offering to (i) repurchase in full its remaining 6 5/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2015—Series B and remaining 6 5/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2015—Series C, (ii) to fund the acquisition of NextMedia Outdoor, Inc., which closed on October 31, 2012 and (iii) to repay $295 million of the Term B loan outstanding under our senior credit facility.

On February 9, 2012, Lamar Media completed an institutional private placement of $500 million aggregate principal amount of 5 7/8% Senior Subordinated Notes, due 2022 (the “5 7/8% Senior Subordinated Notes”). The institutional private placement resulted in net proceeds to Lamar Media of approximately $489 million. The Company used the proceeds of this offering, after the payment of fees and expenses together with approximately $99 million of net proceeds from its term loan A-3 facility to repurchase $583.1 million of its outstanding 6 5/8% Senior Subordinated Notes, as described below under the heading “ — Uses of Cash — Tender Offers and Debt Repayment”.

21

On April 22, 2010, Lamar Media completed an institutional private placement of $400 million aggregate principal amount of 7 7/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2018 the (“7 7/8% Senior Subordinated Notes”). The institutional private placement resulted in net proceeds to Lamar Media of approximately $392 million. The Company used the proceeds of the offering, after the payment of fees and expenses, to repurchase all of its outstanding 7 1/4% Senior Subordinated Notes, as described below under the heading “— Uses of Cash — Tender Offers and Debt Repayment”.

Factors Affecting Sources of Liquidity

Internally Generated Funds. The key factors affecting internally generated cash flow are general economic conditions, specific economic conditions in the markets where the Company conducts its business and overall spending on advertising by advertisers.

Credit Facilities and Other Debt Securities. Lamar must comply with certain covenants and restrictions related to the senior credit facility and its outstanding debt securities.

Restrictions Under Debt Securities. Lamar must comply with certain covenants and restrictions related to its outstanding debt securities. Currently Lamar Media has outstanding approximately $350 million 9 3/4% Senior Notes due 2014 issued in March 2009 (the “9 3/4% Senior Notes), $400 million 7 7/8% Senior Subordinated Notes issued in April 2010, $500 million 5 7/8% Senior Subordinated Notes issued in February 2012 and $535 million 5% Senior Subordinated Notes issued in October 2012.

The indentures relating to Lamar Media’s outstanding notes restrict its ability to incur additional indebtedness but permit the incurrence of indebtedness (including indebtedness under the senior credit facility), (i) if no default or event of default would result from such incurrence and (ii) if after giving effect to any such incurrence, the leverage ratio (defined as total consolidated debt to trailing four fiscal quarter EBITDA (as defined in the indentures)) would be less than (a) 6.5 to 1, pursuant to the 9 3/4% Senior Notes indenture, and (b) 7.0 to 1, pursuant to the 7 7/8% Senior Subordinated Notes, 5 7/8% Senior Subordinated Notes and 5% Senior Subordinated Notes indentures. Currently, Lamar Media is not in default under the indentures of any of its outstanding notes and, therefore, would be permitted to incur additional indebtedness subject to the foregoing provisions.

In addition to debt incurred under the provisions described in the preceding paragraph, the indentures relating to Lamar Media’s outstanding notes permit Lamar Media to incur indebtedness pursuant to the following baskets:

• up to $1.4 billion of indebtedness under the senior credit facility allowable under the 9 3/4% Senior Notes indenture (up to $1.5 billion of indebtedness under the senior credit facility allowable under the 7 7/8% Senior Subordinated Notes, 5 7/8% Senior Subordinated Notes and 5% Senior Subordinated Notes indentures);

• currently outstanding indebtedness or debt incurred to refinance outstanding debt;

• inter-company debt between Lamar Media and its subsidiaries or between subsidiaries;

• certain purchase money indebtedness and capitalized lease obligations to acquire or lease property in the ordinary course of business that cannot exceed the greater of $50 million or 5% of Lamar Media’s net tangible assets; and

• additional debt not to exceed $50 million ($75 million under the 7 7/8% Senior Subordinated Notes, 5 7/8% Senior Subordinated Notes and 5% Senior Subordinated Notes indentures).

Restrictions under Senior Credit Facility. Lamar Media is required to comply with certain covenants and restrictions under the senior credit facility. If the Company fails to comply with these tests, the long term debt payments may be accelerated. At December 31, 2012, and currently, we were in compliance with all such tests under the senior credit facility. We are subject to the following financial ratios:

• a total holdings debt ratio, defined as total consolidated debt of Lamar Advertising Company and its restricted subsidiaries as of any date to EBITDA, as defined below, for the most recent four fiscal quarters then ended as set forth below:

Period	Ratio
March 31, 2012 through and including March 30, 2013	6.25 to 1.00
From and after March 31, 2013	6.00 to 1.00

• a senior debt ratio, defined as total consolidated senior debt of Lamar Media and its restricted subsidiaries to EBITDA, as defined below, for the most recent four fiscal quarters then ended of less than or equal to 3.25 to 1.00 and,

• a fixed charges coverage ratio, defined as the ratio of EBITDA, (as defined below), for the most recent four fiscal quarters to the sum of (1) the total payments of principal and interest on debt for such period, plus (2) capital expenditures made during such period, plus (3) income and franchise tax payments made during such period, plus (4) dividends, of greater than 1.05 to 1.

22

The definition of “EBITDA” under the senior credit facility is as follows: “EBITDA” means, for any period, operating income for the Company and its restricted subsidiaries (determined on a consolidated basis without duplication in accordance with GAAP) for such period (calculated before taxes, interest expense, depreciation, amortization and any other non-cash income or charges accrued for such period, one-time cash restructuring and cash severance changes in the fiscal year ending December 31, 2009 of up to $2,500,000 aggregate amount, charges and expenses in connection with the credit facility transactions and the repurchase or redemption of our 7 1/4% Senior Subordinated Notes and (except to the extent received or paid in cash by us or any of our restricted subsidiaries) income or loss attributable to equity in affiliates for such period) excluding any extraordinary and unusual gains or losses during such period and excluding the proceeds of any casualty events whereby insurance or other proceeds are received and certain dispositions not in the ordinary course. For purposes of calculating EBITDA, the effect on such calculation of any adjustments required under Statement of Accounting Standards No. 141R is excluded.

Excess Cash Flow Payments. Lamar Media may be required to make certain mandatory prepayments on loans outstanding under the senior credit facility that would be applied first to any outstanding term loans, commencing with the year ended December 31, 2010. These payments, if any, are determined annually and are calculated based on a percentage of Consolidated Excess Cash Flow (as defined in the senior credit facility) at the end of each fiscal year. The percentage of Consolidated Excess Cash Flow that must be applied to repay outstanding loans was set at 50% for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010. For fiscal years ending after December 31, 2010, this percentage is subject to a reduction to 0% if the total holdings debt ratio, as described above, is less than or equal to 5.00 to 1.00 as of the last day of such fiscal year. The Company will not be required to make a mandatory prepayment in respect of Consolidated Excess Cash Flow for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012 since there was a consolidated cash flow deficit, in accordance with the calculation as defined in the senior credit facility and the total holdings debt ratio was less than 5.0 to 1.0.

The Company believes that its current level of cash on hand, availability under the senior credit facility and future cash flows from operations are sufficient to meet its operating needs through fiscal 2013. All debt obligations are reflected on the Company’s balance sheet.

Uses of Cash

Capital Expenditures. Capital expenditures excluding acquisitions were approximately $105.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2012. We anticipate our 2013 total capital expenditures will be approximately $100 million.

Acquisitions. During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company financed its acquisition activity of approximately $206.1 million with cash on hand and net proceeds from the 5% Senior Subordinated Notes offering. The aggregate acquisition activity includes the acquisition of NextMedia Outdoor, Inc., which was purchased in October 2012 for a cash purchase price of $145 million.

Tender Offers and Debt Repayment. On January 26, 2012, Lamar Media commenced a tender offer to purchase for cash, up to $700 million in aggregate principal amount of its outstanding 6 5/8% Senior Subordinated Notes. On February 9, 2012, Lamar Media accepted tenders for approximately $483.7 million in aggregate principal amount of the 6 5/8% Senior Subordinated Notes, out of approximately $582.9 million tendered, in connection with the early settlement date of the tender offer. On February 27, 2012, Lamar Media accepted tenders for approximately $99.2 million previously tendered and not accepted for payment and an additional $220 thousand tendered following the early settlement date. The holders of the notes tendered on or before midnight on February 8, 2012 received a total consideration of $1,025.83 per $1,000 principal amount of the notes tendered; holders of notes tendered after such date received a total consideration of $1,005.83 per $1,000 principal amount of the notes tendered. The total cash payment to purchase the tendered 6 5/8% Senior Subordinated Notes on February 9, 2012, including accrued interest up to but excluding February 9, 2012 was approximately $511.6 million and the total cash payment to purchase the tendered notes on February 27, 2012, including accrued interest up to but excluding February 27, 2012 was approximately $102.3 million, resulting in an aggregate payment in respect of the 6 5/8% Senior Subordinated Notes tender offer of approximately $613.9 million.

On July 30, 2012, Lamar Media provided notice of its intent to redeem in full all $122.76 million of its 6 5/8% Senior Subordinated Notes at a redemption price equal to 101.104% of the principal amount outstanding, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the redemption date of August 29, 2012. The redemption price will be due and payable on the redemption date upon surrender of the 6 5/8% Senior Subordinated Notes in accordance with the terms of the indenture governing the notes. Lamar Media used cash on hand and borrowings under its senior credit facility to fund the redemption. Following the redemption, Lamar Media had approximately $137.2 million in aggregate principal amount of its 6 5/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2015—Series B and 6 5/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2015—Series C outstanding.

23

On October 9, 2012, Lamar Media provided notice of its intent to redeem $36.1 million of its 6 5/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2015—Series B and $30 million of its 6 5/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2015—Series C on November 8, 2012 at a redemption price equal to 101.104% of the principal amount of outstanding notes plus accrued and unpaid interest up to but not including the redemption date.

On October 30, 2012, Lamar Media provided notice of its intent to redeem in full on November 29, 2012, the remaining $71.1 million in aggregate principal amount outstanding of its 6 5/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2018—Series C at a redemption price equal to 101.104% of the principal amount of outstanding notes plus accrued and unpaid interest up to but not including the redemption date.

On December 14, 2012, Lamar Media repaid $295 million of its Term B loan outstanding under its senior credit facility. Lamar Media recorded a $3.9 million loss related to this prepayment due to the write off of previously capitalized and unamortized debt issuance costs. As of December 31, 2012, $22.2 million remains outstanding under the Term B loans.

During September and October of 2011, the Company repurchased an aggregate principal amount of $47.9 million of its outstanding 6 5/8% Senior Subordinated Notes at an average price of 98.5% of the original amount of the notes through open-market transactions.

On April 8, 2010, Lamar Media commenced a tender offer to purchase for cash any and all of its outstanding 7 1/4% Senior Subordinated Notes. In conjunction with the tender offer, Lamar Media also solicited consents from the holders of the 7 1/4% Senior Subordinated Notes to amend the 7 1/4% Senior Subordinated Notes to eliminate certain covenants and amend certain provisions of the indenture governing the 7 1/4% Senior Subordinated Notes. On April 22, 2010 Lamar Media accepted tenders for approximately $365.4 million in aggregate principal amount of the 7 1/4% Senior Subordinated Notes in connection with the early settlement date of the tender offer. The holders of accepted notes received a total consideration of $1,012.08 per $1,000 principal amount of the notes tendered. The total cash payment to purchase the tendered 7 1/4% Senior Subordinated Notes, including accrued and unpaid interest up to but excluding April 22, 2010 was approximately $378 million. Tendering holders also delivered the requisite consents authorizing Lamar Media to remove certain covenants in the 7 1/4% Senior Subordinated Notes. These consents authorized entry into a Supplemental Indenture, which reflects the amendments to the 7 1/4% Senior Subordinated Notes discussed above. On May 6, 2010, Lamar Media accepted tenders for an additional $169 thousand in aggregate principal amount of 7 1/4% Senior Subordinated Notes in connection with the final settlement of the tender offer. On June 7, 2010, Lamar Media redeemed the remaining $19.4 million in outstanding 7 1/4% Senior Subordinated Notes.

Debt Service and Contractual Obligations. As of December 31, 2012, we had outstanding debt of approximately $2.16 billion. In the future, Lamar Media has principal reduction obligations and revolver commitment reductions under the senior credit facility. In addition, it has fixed commercial commitments. These commitments are detailed as follows:

			Payments Due by Period
Contractual Obligations	Total		Less Than 1 Year		1 - 3 Years		3 - 5 Years		After 5 Years
	(In millions)

REIT Election

We are actively considering an election to real estate investment trust (REIT) status. On November 16, 2012, in conjunction with our review regarding a potential REIT election, we submitted a private letter ruling to the Internal Revenue Service. If we receive a favorable response and decide to proceed with a REIT election, we intend to make the election for the taxable year beginning January 1, 2014, subject to the approval of our board of directors. A favorable IRS ruling, if received, does not guarantee that we would succeed in qualifying as a REIT and there is no certainty as to the timing of a REIT election. We may not ultimately pursue a conversion to a REIT, and we can provide no assurance that a REIT conversion, if completed, will be successfully implemented or achieve the intended benefits.

Cash Flows

The Company’s cash flows provided by operating activities increased by $57.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2012 primarily resulting from an increase in operating income of $31.3 million as described in “Results of Operations” and by a decrease in changes to operating net assets of $17.9 million.

Cash flows used in investing activities increased $186.1 million from $117.3 million in 2011 to $303.4 million in 2012 primarily due to an increase in acquisition activity of $182.6 million as compared to the same period in 2011.

Cash flows used in financing activities was $47.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, primarily due to the debt issuance costs related to the Company’s refinancing transactions.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

Our discussion and analysis of our results of operations and liquidity and capital resources are based on our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments, including those related to long-lived asset recovery, intangible assets, goodwill impairment, deferred taxes, asset retirement obligations, stock-based compensation and allowance for doubtful accounts. We base our estimates on historical and anticipated results and trends and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, including assumptions as to future events and, where applicable, established valuation techniques. These estimates form the basis for making judgments about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. By their nature, estimates are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. Actual results may differ from our estimates. We believe that the following significant accounting policies and assumptions may involve a higher degree of judgment and complexity than others.

Long-Lived Asset Recovery. Long-lived assets, consisting primarily of property, plant and equipment and intangibles comprise a significant portion of the Company’s total assets. Purchases of property, plant and equipment are recorded at purchase cost, while acquired property, plant and equipment is recorded at fair value determined primarily through estimates of replacement costs. Property, plant and equipment of $1.2 billion and intangible assets of $468.3 million are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances have indicated that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by that asset before interest expense. These undiscounted cash flow projections are based on management’s assumptions surrounding future operating results and the anticipated future economic environment. If actual results differ from management’s assumptions, an impairment of these intangible assets may exist and a charge to income would be made in the period such impairment is determined. During the year ended December 31, 2012, there were no indications that an impairment test was necessary.

Intangible Assets. The Company has significant intangible assets recorded on its balance sheet. Intangible assets primarily represent site locations of $439.6 million and customer relationships of $27.3 million associated with the Company’s acquisitions. The fair values of intangible assets recorded are determined using discounted cash flow models that require management to make assumptions related to future operating results, including projecting net revenue growth discounted using current cost of capital rates, of each acquisition and the anticipated future economic environment. If actual results differ from management’s assumptions, an impairment of these intangibles may exist and a charge to income would be made in the period such impairment is determined. Historically no impairment charge has been required with respect to the Company’s intangible assets.

Goodwill Impairment. The Company has a significant amount of goodwill on its balance sheet and must perform an impairment test of goodwill annually or on a more frequent basis if events and circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. The first step of the impairment test requires management to determine the implied fair value of its reporting units and compare it to its book value (including goodwill). To the extent the book value of a reporting unit exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, the Company would be required to perform the second step of the impairment test, as this is an indicator that the reporting unit may be impaired. Impairment testing involves various estimates and assumptions, which could vary, and an analysis of relevant market data and market capitalization.

25

We have identified two reporting units (Logo operations and Billboard operations) in accordance with ASC 350. No changes have been made to our reporting units from the prior period. The reporting units and their carrying amounts of goodwill as of December 31, 2012 and 2011 are as follows:

	Carrying Value of Goodwill (in thousands)
	December 31, 2012		December 31, 2011
Billboard operations		1,484,189		1,425,887
Logo operations		961		961

We believe there are numerous facts and circumstances that need to be considered when estimating the reasonableness of the reporting unit’s estimated fair value. In conducting our impairment test, we assessed the reasonableness of the reporting unit’s estimated fair value based on both market capitalization and discounted future cash flows. The discounted cash flow analysis incorporated various growth rate assumptions and discounting based on a present value factor.

Consideration of market capitalization

The Company first considered its market capitalization as of its annual impairment testing date of December 31. The market capitalization of its Class A common stock as of December 31, 2012 was $3.7 billion compared to stockholders’ equity of $874.8 million as of that date, resulting in an excess of approximately $2.8 billion, which is substantially in excess of our book value. The Company considers market capitalization over book value a strong indicator that no impairment of goodwill exists as of the measurement date of December 31, 2012. The following table presents the market capitalization and aggregate book value of the reporting units as of December 31, 2012:

	Equity Book Value		Market Capitalization(1)
	(in thousands)
Aggregate Values as of December 31, 2012	$	874,833	$	3,683,523

⁽¹⁾ Market capitalization was calculated using a 10-day average of the closing prices of the Class A common stock beginning 5 trading days prior to the measurement date.

Calculations of Fair Value using Discounted Cash Flow Analysis

We also estimate fair value using a discounted cash flow analysis that compares the estimated future cash flows of each reporting unit to the book value of the reporting unit. The discount rate and projected revenue and EBITDA (earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization) growth rates are significant assumptions utilized in our calculation of the present value of cash flows used to estimate fair value of the reporting units. These assumptions could be adversely impacted by certain risks including deterioration in industry and economic conditions. See discussion in “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of this Annual Report. For additional information about goodwill, see Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Our discount rate assumption is based on our cost of capital, which we determine annually based on our estimated costs of debt and equity relative to our capital structure. As of December 31, 2012 our weighted average cost of capital (WACC) was approximately 9.5%.

In developing our revenue and EBITDA growth rates, we consider our historical performance and current market trends in the markets in which we operate. The five year projected Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) used in our discounted cash flow analysis for billboard revenue and billboard EBITDA was 3.6% and 4.1%, respectively, and our logo operations revenue and EBITDA CAGR was 1.8% and 1.7%, respectively. The projected CAGR for revenue and EBITDA discussed above would have to deteriorate significantly, among other factors, before further testing of goodwill impairment would be necessary for our reporting units.

The fair values calculated as of December 31, 2012, using the discounted cash flow analysis described above for both reporting units were substantially in excess of their book values. Assumptions used in our impairment test, such as forecasted growth rates and our cost of capital, are based on the best available market information and are consistent with our internal forecast and operating plans. The following table presents the aggregate fair value of our reporting units and aggregate book value of the reporting units as of December 31, 2012:

	Equity Book Value		Fair Value  (1)
	(in thousands)
Aggregate Values as of December 31, 2012	$	874,833	$	3,510,055

⁽¹⁾ Fair Value is calculated using the discounted cash flow analysis described above.

26

Based upon the Company’s annual review as of December 31, 2012, using both the market capitalization approach and discounted cash flow analysis, there was no indication of a potential impairment and, therefore, the second step of the impairment test was not required and no impairment charge was necessary.

Deferred Taxes. As of December 31, 2012, the Company had deferred tax assets of $260.6 million, a component of which is the Company’s operating loss carry forward, net of existing valuation allowances. In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income in those jurisdictions during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities (including the impact of available carry back and carry forward periods), projected future taxable income, and tax-planning strategies in making this assessment. In order to fully realize the deferred tax assets, the company will need to generate future taxable income before the expiration of the carry forwards governed by the tax code. Based on the current level of pretax earnings for financial reporting purposes and projected decreases in future depreciation and amortization, we will generate the minimum amount of future taxable income to support the realization of the deferred tax assets. Additionally, the company has a significant amount of deferred tax liabilities that will reverse during the same period and jurisdiction and is of the same character as the temporary differences giving rise to the deferred tax assets. As a result, management believes that it is more likely than not that we will realize the benefits of these deferred tax assets, net of the existing valuation allowances at December 31, 2012. The amount of the deferred tax asset considered realizable, however, could be reduced in the near term if estimates of future taxable income during the carry forward period are reduced. Should the Company determine that it would not be able to realize all or part of its net deferred tax assets in the future, an adjustment to the deferred tax asset would be charged to income in the period such determination was made. For a more detailed description, see Note 11 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Asset Retirement Obligations. The Company had an asset retirement obligation of $189.7 million as of December 31, 2012. This liability relates to the Company’s obligation upon the termination or non-renewal of a lease to dismantle and remove its billboard structures from the leased land and to reclaim the site to its original condition. The Company records the present value of obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets in the period in which they are incurred. The liability is capitalized as part of the related long-lived asset’s carrying amount. Over time, accretion of the liability is recognized as an operating expense and the capitalized cost is depreciated over the expected useful life of the related asset. In calculating the liability, the Company calculates the present value of the estimated cost to dismantle using an average cost to dismantle, adjusted for inflation and market risk.

This calculation includes 100% of the Company’s billboard structures on leased land (which currently consist of approximately 72,000 structures). The Company uses a 15-year retirement period based on historical operating experience in its core markets, including the actual time that billboard structures have been located on leased land in such markets and the actual length of the leases in the core markets, which includes the initial term of the lease, plus consideration of any renewal period. Historical third-party cost information is used to estimate the cost of dismantling of the structures and the reclamation of the site. The interest rate used to calculate the present value of such costs over the retirement period is based on the Company’s historical credit-adjusted risk free rate.

Stock-based Compensation. Share-based compensation expense is based on the value of the portion of share-based payment awards that is ultimately expected to vest. Share-Based Payment Accounting requires the use of a valuation model to calculate the fair value of share-based awards. The Company has elected to use the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The Black-Scholes option-pricing model incorporates various assumptions, including volatility, expected life and interest rates. The expected life is based on the observed and expected time to post-vesting exercise and forfeitures of stock options by our employees. Upon the adoption of Share-Based Payment Accounting, we used a combination of historical and implied volatility, or blended volatility, in deriving the expected volatility assumption as allowed under Share-Based Payment Accounting. The risk-free interest rate assumption is based upon observed interest rates appropriate for the term of our stock options. The dividend yield assumption is based on our history and expectation of dividend payouts. Share-Based Payment Accounting requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. Forfeitures were estimated based on our historical experience. If factors change and we employ different assumptions in the application of Share-Based Payment Accounting in future periods, the compensation expense that we record under Share-Based Payment Accounting may differ significantly from what we have recorded in the current period. During 2012, we recorded $6.2 million as compensation expense related to stock options and employee stock purchases. We evaluate and adjust our assumptions on an annual basis. See Note 14 “Stock Compensation Plans” of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts. The Company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts based on the payment patterns of its customers. Management analyzes historical results, the economic environment, changes in the credit worthiness of its customers, and other relevant factors in determining the adequacy of the Company’s allowance. Bad debt expense was $5.5 million, $7.6 million and $8.7 million or approximately 0.5%, 0.7% and 0.8% of net revenue for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010, respectively. If the future economic environment declines, the inability of customers to pay may occur and the allowance for doubtful accounts may need to be increased, which will result in additional bad debt expense in future years.

Lamar Media Corp.

The following is a discussion of the consolidated financial condition and results of operations of Lamar Media for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of Lamar Media and the related notes.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following table presents certain items in the Consolidated Statements of Operations as a percentage of net revenues for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010:

	Year Ended December 31,
	2012			2011			2010
Net revenues		100.0	%		100.0	%		100.0	%
Operating expenses:
Direct advertising expenses		35.4			36.1			36.5
General and administrative expenses		17.9			17.9			18.2
Corporate expenses		4.5			4.1			4.3
Depreciation and amortization		25.0			26.4			28.6
Operating income		18.4			16.5			12.8
Loss on extinguishment of debt		3.5			—			1.6
Interest expense		13.3			15.1			17.0
Net income (loss)		0.8			0.8			(3.7	)

Year ended December 31, 2012 compared to Year ended December 31, 2011

Net revenues increased $49.4 million or 4.4% to $1.18 billion for the year ended December 31, 2012 from $1.13 billion for the same period in 2011. This increase was attributable primarily to an increase in billboard net revenues of $39.1 million or 3.8% over the prior period, an increase in logo sign revenue of $3.7 million, which represents an increase of 6.5% over the prior period, and a $6.6 million increase in transit revenue, which represents an increase of 10.9% over the prior period.

For the year ended December 31, 2012, there was a $35.2 million increase in net revenues as compared to acquisition-adjusted net revenue for the year ended December 31, 2011. The $35.2 million increase in revenue primarily consists of a $28.0 million increase in billboard revenue, a $2.2 million increase in logo revenue and a $5.0 million increase in transit revenue over the acquisition-adjusted net revenue for the comparable period in 2011. This increase in revenue represents an increase of 3.1% over the comparable period in 2011. See “Reconciliations” below.

Operating expenses, exclusive of depreciation and amortization and gain on sale of assets, increased $24.9 million or 3.8% to $682.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2012 from $657.7 million for the same period in 2011. There was an $18.3 million increase in operating expenses related to the operations of our outdoor advertising assets and a $6.6 million increase in corporate expenses.

Depreciation and amortization expense decreased $3.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2012 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2011, primarily due to a reduction in the number of non-performing structures that were dismantled during the period as compared to the year ended December 31, 2012.

The Company recorded a gain on disposition of assets of $13.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, which includes a gain of $9.8 million related to two asset swap transactions during the year.

Due to the above factors, operating income increased $31.3 million to $218.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2012 compared to $186.7 million for the same period in 2011.

During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company recognized a $41.6 million loss on debt extinguishment related to the early extinguishment of the 6 5/8% Senior Subordinated Notes and the prepayment of $295 million of Lamar Media’s Term B Loan. Approximately $23.2 million of the loss is a non-cash expense attributable to the write off of unamortized debt issuance fees and unamortized discounts associated with the retired notes. See — “Uses of Cash — Tender Offers and Debt Repayment” for more information.

28

Interest expense decreased approximately $14.0 million from $171.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 to $157.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, due to the reduction in total debt outstanding as well as a decrease in interest rates resulting from the Company’s recent refinancing transactions. See — “Uses of Cash — Tender Offers and Debt Repayment” for more information.

The increase in operating income and decrease in interest expense offset by the loss on extinguishment of debt discussed above resulted in a $4.1 million increase in net income before income taxes. The Company recorded income tax expense of $9.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2012. The effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2012 was 48.8%, which is higher than the statutory rate due to permanent differences resulting from non-deductible expenses and amortization, primarily non-deductible compensation expense related to stock based compensation calculated in accordance with ASC718.

As a result of the above factors, the Company recognized net income for the year ended December 31, 2012 of $10.0 million, as compared to net income of $8.6 million for the same period in 2011.

Reconciliations:

Because acquisitions occurring after December 31, 2010 (the “acquired assets”) have contributed to our net revenue results for the periods presented, we provide 2011 acquisition-adjusted net revenue, which adjusts our 2011 net revenue for the three and year ended December 31, 2012 by adding to it the net revenue generated by the acquired assets prior to our acquisition of these assets for the same time frame that those assets were owned in the year ended December 31, 2012. We provide this information as a supplement to net revenues to enable investors to compare periods in 2012 and 2011 on a more consistent basis without the effects of acquisitions. Management uses this comparison to assess how well we are performing within our existing assets.

Acquisition-adjusted net revenue is not determined in accordance with GAAP. For this adjustment, we measure the amount of pre-acquisition revenue generated by the assets during the period in 2011 that corresponds with the actual period we have owned the assets in 2012 (to the extent within the period to which this report relates). We refer to this adjustment as “acquisition net revenue.”

Reconciliations of 2011 reported net revenue to 2011 acquisition-adjusted net revenue for the year ended December 31, 2012 as well as a comparison of 2011 acquisition-adjusted net revenue to 2012 reported net revenue for the year ended December 31, 2012, are provided below:

	Year ended December 31,
	2012		2011
	(in thousands)
Reported net revenue	$	1,182,901	$	1,133,487
Acquisition net revenue		—		14,257
Adjusted totals	$	1,182,901	$	1,147,744

Year ended December 31, 2011 compared to Year ended December 31, 2010

Net revenues increased $41.2 million or 3.8% to $1.13 billion for the year ended December 31, 2011 from $1.09 billion for the same period in 2010. This increase was attributable primarily to an increase in billboard net revenues of $31.0 million, or 3.1%, over the prior period, a $2.4 million increase in transit revenue, or 4.2%, over the prior period and a $7.9 million increase in logo revenue, or 15.9%, over the prior period.

Of the $31.0 million increase in billboard net revenue $8.2 million was generated by adding approximately 240 new digital display panels and approximately $22.8 million was a result of increased rate and occupancy, over the comparable period in 2010. The $7.9 million increase in logo revenue consists of a $4.0 million increase due to changes in logo contracts and an increase in internal growth of $3.9 million.

Net revenues for the year ended December 31, 2011, as compared to acquisition-adjusted net revenue for the year ended December 31, 2010, increased $36.4 million or 3.3% primarily as a result of increased rate and occupancy, as compared to the same period in 2010. See “Reconciliations” below.

Operating expenses, exclusive of depreciation and amortization and gain on sale of assets, increased $12.7 million, or 2.0%, to $657.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 from $645.0 million for the same period in 2010. There was a $6.2 million decrease in non-cash compensation expense related to equity based compensation, offset by a $16.2 million increase in operating expenses related to the cost of operating the Company’s core assets and a $2.7 million increase in corporate expenses.

29

Depreciation and amortization expense decreased $13.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2010. The decrease is primarily a result of the reduction in the number of non performing structures dismantled during 2011 as compared to the same period in 2010.

Due to the above factors, operating income increased $47.2 million to $186.7 million for year ended December 31, 2011 compared to $139.5 million for the same period in 2010.

Interest expense decreased $14.8 million from $185.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 to $171.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 primarily resulting from the reduction in total debt outstanding as well as a decrease in interest rates resulting from the refinancing of the Company’s senior credit facility during 2010.

During the period ended December 31, 2011, Lamar Media repurchased an aggregate principal amount of $47.9 million of its outstanding 6 5/8% Senior Subordinated Notes. The Company repurchased the 6 5/8% Senior Subordinated Notes at an average price of 98.5% of the original amount of the notes through open-market transactions. As a result of the repurchases, the Company recorded a $0.7 million loss on early extinguishment of debt for the year ended December 31, 2011 of which approximately $1.4 million was a non-cash expense related to the previously capitalized unamortized debt issuance fees and discounts. During the comparable period in 2010, the Company recognized a $17.4 million loss on the early extinguishment of debt resulting from its 2010 refinancing transactions. Approximately $12.6 million of the 2010 loss is a non-cash expense attributable to the write off of unamortized debt issuance fees related to the tender offer to repurchase Lamar Media’s 7 1/4% Senior Subordinated Notes and refinancing of its senior credit facility. The remaining $4.8 million represented the net cash loss related to the tender offer and extinguishment of the 7 1/4% Senior Subordinated Notes.

The increase in operating income and decrease in interest expense and loss on extinguishment of debt resulted in a $78.9 million increase in net income before income taxes. The increase in net income for the period resulted in an increase in income tax expense as compared to the same period during 2010. The effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2011 was 44.5%, which is higher than the statutory rate due to permanent differences resulting from non-deductible compensation expense related to stock options in accordance with ASC 718 and other non-deductible expenses and amortization.

As a result of the above factors, Lamar Media recognized net income for the year ended December 31, 2011 of $8.6 million, as compared to a net loss of $40.2 million for the same period in 2010.

Reconciliations:

Because acquisitions occurring after December 31, 2009 (the “acquired assets”) have contributed to our net revenue results for the periods presented, we provide 2010 acquisition-adjusted net revenue, which adjusts our 2010 net revenue by adding to it the net revenue generated by the acquired assets prior to our acquisition of these assets for the same time frame that those assets were owned in 2011. We provide this information as a supplement to net revenues to enable investors to compare periods in 2011 and 2010 on a more consistent basis without the effects of acquisitions. Management uses this comparison to assess how well our core assets are performing.

Acquisition-adjusted net revenue is not determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). For this adjustment, we measure the amount of pre-acquisition revenue generated by the acquired assets during the period in 2010 that corresponds with the actual period we have owned the acquired assets in 2011 (to the extent within the period to which this report relates). We refer to this adjustment as “acquisition net revenue.”

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Lamar Advertising Company and Lamar Media Corp.

Lamar Advertising Company is exposed to interest rate risk in connection with variable rate debt instruments issued by its wholly owned subsidiary Lamar Media Corp. The information below summarizes the Company’s interest rate risk associated with its principal variable rate debt instruments outstanding at December 31, 2012, and should be read in conjunction with Note 8 of the Notes to the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

Loans under Lamar Media Corp.’s senior credit facility bear interest at variable rates equal to the JPMorgan Chase Prime Rate or LIBOR plus the applicable margin. Because the JPMorgan Chase Prime Rate or LIBOR may increase or decrease at any time, the Company is exposed to market risk as a result of the impact that changes in these base rates may have on the interest rate applicable to borrowings under the senior credit facility. Increases in the interest rates applicable to borrowings under the senior credit facility would result in increased interest expense and a reduction in the Company’s net income.

At December 31, 2012 there was approximately $384.7 million of aggregate indebtedness outstanding under the senior credit facility, or approximately 17.8% of the Company’s outstanding long-term debt on that date, bearing interest at variable rates. The aggregate interest expense for 2012 with respect to borrowings under the senior credit facility was $25.1 million, and the weighted average interest rate applicable to borrowings under this credit facility during 2012 was 3.3%. Assuming that the weighted average interest rate was 200 basis points higher (that is 5.3% rather than 3.3%), then the Company’s 2012 interest expense would have been approximately $13.7 million higher resulting in an $8.3 million decrease in the Company’s 2012 net income.

The Company attempted to mitigate the interest rate risk resulting from its variable interest rate long-term debt instruments by issuing fixed rate long-term debt instruments and maintaining a balance over time between the amount of the Company’s variable rate and fixed rate indebtedness. In addition, the Company has the capability under the senior credit facility to fix the interest rates applicable to its borrowings at an amount equal to LIBOR plus the applicable margin for periods of up to twelve months (in certain cases with the consent of the lenders), which would allow the Company to mitigate the impact of short-term fluctuations in market interest rates. In the event of an increase in interest rates, the Company may take further actions to mitigate its exposure. The Company cannot guarantee, however, that the actions that it may take to mitigate this risk will be feasible or that, if these actions are taken, that they will be effective.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

The management of Lamar Advertising Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act.

Lamar Advertising’s management assessed the effectiveness of Lamar Advertising’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework. Based on this assessment, Lamar Advertising’s management has concluded that, as of December 31, 2012, Lamar Advertising’s internal control over financial reporting is effective based on those criteria. The effectiveness of Lamar Advertising’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012 has been audited by KPMG LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report, which is included in Item 8 to this Annual Report.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Board of Directors and Stockholders

Lamar Advertising Company:

We have audited Lamar Advertising Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Lamar Advertising Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In our opinion, Lamar Advertising Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets of Lamar Advertising Company and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), stockholders’ equity and comprehensive income (deficit), and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2012, and the financial statement schedule, and our report dated February 28, 2013 expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements and schedule.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Board of Directors and Stockholders

Lamar Advertising Company:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Lamar Advertising Company and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), stockholders’ equity and comprehensive income (deficit), and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2012. In connection with our audits of the consolidated financial statements, we also have audited the financial statement schedule. These consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Lamar Advertising Company and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2012, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Also in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), Lamar Advertising Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO), and our report dated February 28, 2013 expressed an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

LAMAR ADVERTISING COMPANY

AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Dollars in thousands, except share and per share data)

(1) Significant Accounting Policies

(a) Nature of Business

Lamar Advertising Company (the Company) is engaged in the outdoor advertising business, operating approximately 144,000 billboard advertising displays in 44 states, Canada and Puerto Rico. The Company’s operating strategy is to be the leading provider of outdoor advertising services in the markets it serves.

In addition, the Company operates a logo sign business in 22 states throughout the United States and the province of Ontario, Canada and a transit advertising business in over 60 markets. Logo signs are erected pursuant to state-awarded service contracts on public rights-of-way near highway exits and deliver brand name information on available gas, food, lodging and camping services. Included in the Company’s logo sign business are tourism signing contracts. The Company provides transit advertising on bus shelters, benches and buses in the markets it serves.

(b) Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include Lamar Advertising Company, its wholly owned subsidiary, Lamar Media Corp. (Lamar Media), and its majority-owned subsidiaries. All inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

An operating segment is a component of an enterprise:

• that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses;

• whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the enterprise’s chief operating decision maker to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance; and

• for which discrete financial information is available.

We define the term ‘chief operating decision maker’ to be our executive management group, which consist of our Chief Executive Officer, President and Chief Financial Officer. Currently, all operations are reviewed on a consolidated basis for budget and business plan performance by our executive management group. Additionally, operational performance at the end of each reporting period is viewed in the aggregate by our management group. Any decisions related to changes in invested capital, personnel, operational improvement or training, or to allocate other company resources are made based on the combined results.

We operate in a single operating and reporting segment, advertising. We sell advertising on billboards, buses, shelters and benches and logo plates.

(c) Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is calculated using accelerated and straight-line methods over the estimated useful lives of the assets.

(d) Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill is subject to an annual impairment test. The Company designated December 31 as the date of its annual goodwill impairment test. Impairment testing involves various estimates and assumptions, which could vary, and an analysis of relevant market data and market capitalization. If industry and economic conditions deteriorate, the Company may be required to assess goodwill impairment before the next annual test, which could result in impairment charges.

LAMAR ADVERTISING COMPANY

AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Dollars in thousands, except share and per share data)

The Company is required to identify its reporting units and determine the carrying value of each reporting unit by assigning the assets and liabilities, including the existing goodwill and intangible assets, to those reporting units. The Company is required to determine the fair value of each reporting unit and compare it to the carrying amount of the reporting unit. To the extent the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, the Company would be required to perform the second step of the impairment test, as this is an indication that the reporting unit goodwill may be impaired. The fair value of each reporting unit exceeded its carrying amount at its annual impairment test date on December 31, 2012 and 2011, therefore, the Company was not required to recognize an impairment loss.

Intangible assets, consisting primarily of site locations, customer lists and contracts, and non-competition agreements are amortized using the straight-line method over the assets estimated useful lives, generally from 3 to 15 years.

(e) Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets, such as property, plant and equipment, and purchased intangibles subject to amortization, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset before interest expense. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. Assets to be disposed of would be separately presented in the balance sheet and reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell, and are no longer depreciated. The assets and liabilities of a disposed group classified as held for sale would be presented separately in the appropriate asset and liability sections of the balance sheet.

(f) Deferred Income

Deferred income consists principally of advertising revenue invoiced in advance and gains resulting from the sale of certain assets to related parties. Deferred advertising revenue is recognized in income as services are provided over the term of the contract.

(g) Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes outdoor advertising revenue on an accrual basis ratably over the term of the contracts, as services are provided. Production revenue and the related expense for the advertising copy are recognized upon completion of the sale.

The Company engages in barter transactions where the Company trades advertising space for goods and services. The Company recognizes revenues and expenses from barter transactions at fair value, which is determined based on the Company’s own historical practice of receiving cash for similar advertising space from buyers unrelated to the party in the barter transaction. The amount of revenue and expense recognized for advertising barter transactions is as follows:

	2012		2011		2010
Net revenues	$	6,798	$	7,153	$	6,608
Direct advertising expenses	$	2,900	$	2,766	$	2,768
General and administrative expenses	$	3,699	$	3,524	$	3,242

(h) Income Taxes

The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under the asset and liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Dollars in thousands, except share and per share data)

(i) Earnings Per Share

The calculation of basic earnings per share excludes any dilutive effect of stock options and convertible debt, while diluted earnings per share includes the dilutive effect of stock options and convertible debt. For the years ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, there were no dilutive shares excluded from the calculation. For the year ended December 31, 2010, there were $465,820 shares excluded from the calculation due to their anti-dilutive effect.

(j) Stock Based Compensation

Compensation expense for share-based awards is recognized based on the grant date fair value of those awards. Stock-based compensation expense includes an estimate for pre-vesting forfeitures and is recognized over the requisite service periods of the awards on a straight-line basis, which is generally commensurate with the vesting term. Non-cash compensation expense recognized during the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010 were $14,466, $11,650 and $17,839. The $14,466 expensed during the year ended December 31, 2012 consists of (i) $6,249 related to stock options, (ii) $7,970 related to stock grants, made under the Company’s performance-based stock incentive program in 2012 (iii) $247 related to stock awards to directors. See Note 14 for information on the assumptions we used to calculate the fair value of stock-based compensation.

(k) Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly-liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

(l) Foreign Currency Translation

Local currencies generally are considered the functional currencies outside the United States. Assets and liabilities for operations in local-currency environments are translated at year-end exchange rates. Income and expense items are translated at average rates of exchange prevailing during the year. Foreign currency translation adjustments are recorded as a component of other comprehensive income in the Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) and as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (deficit) in Consolidated Statement of Stockholders’ Equity and Comprehensive Income (Deficit).

(m) Asset Retirement Obligations

The Company is required to record the present value of obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets in the period in which it is incurred. The liability is capitalized as part of the related long-lived asset’s carrying amount. Over time, accretion of the liability is recognized as an operating expense and the capitalized cost is depreciated over the expected useful life of the related asset. The Company’s asset retirement obligations relate primarily to the dismantlement, removal, site reclamation and similar activities of its properties.

(n) Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

(o) Comprehensive Income

Total comprehensive income is presented in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) and the components of accumulated other comprehensive income (deficit) are presented in the Consolidated Statement of Stockholders’ Equity and Comprehensive Income (Deficit). Comprehensive Income (Loss) is composed of foreign currency translation effects.

(p) Subsequent Events

The Company has performed an evaluation of subsequent events through the date on which the financial statements are issued.

In addition to the amortizations of our Term facilities, Lamar Media may be required to make certain mandatory prepayments on loans outstanding under the senior credit facility that would be applied first to any outstanding term loans, commencing with the year ended December 31, 2010. These payments, if any, are determined annually and are calculated based on a percentage of Consolidated Excess Cash Flow (as defined in the senior credit facility) at the end of each fiscal year. The percentage of Consolidated Excess Cash Flow that must be applied to repay outstanding loans was set at 50% for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010. For fiscal years ending on or after December 31, 2011, this percentage is subject to a reduction to 0% if the total holdings debt ratio, as described above, is less than or equal to 5.00 to 1.00 as of the last day of such fiscal year. The Company will not be required to make a mandatory prepayment in respect of Consolidated Excess Cash Flow for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012 since there was a consolidated cash flow deficit, in accordance with the calculation as defined in the senior credit facility and the total holdings debt ratio was less than 5.0 to 1.0.

As of December 31, 2012, there was $0 revolving credit loans outstanding under the revolving facility. The revolving facility terminates April 28, 2015. Availability of the revolving facility is reduced by the amount of letters of credit outstanding. The Company had $7,689 letters of credit outstanding as of December 31, 2012 and $242,311 availability under its revolving facility. Revolving credit loans may be requested under the revolving credit facility at any time prior to maturity. The loans bear interest, at the Company’s option, at the LIBOR Rate or JPMorgan Chase Prime Rate plus applicable margins, such margins being set from time to time based on the Company’s ratio of debt to trailing twelve month EBITDA, as defined in the agreement.

The terms of the indenture relating to Lamar Advertising’s outstanding notes, Lamar Media’s senior credit facility and the indenture relating to Lamar Media’s outstanding notes restrict, among other things, the ability of Lamar Advertising and Lamar Media to:

• dispose of assets;

• incur or repay debt;

• create liens;

• make investments; and

• pay dividends.

Lamar Media’s ability to make distributions to Lamar Advertising is also restricted under the terms of these agreements. Under Lamar Media’s senior credit facility the Company must maintain specified financial ratios and levels including:

• fixed charges coverage ratio;

• senior debt ratio; and

• total holdings debt ratio.

Lamar Advertising and Lamar Media were in compliance with all of the terms of all of the indentures and the applicable senior credit agreement during the periods presented.

As of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the Company had income taxes (payable) receivable of $(252) and $381, included in accrued expenses and other current assets, respectively.

The U.S. and foreign components of earnings (loss) before income taxes are as follows:

	2012			2011			2010

Income tax expense (benefit)	$	9,476		$	6,623		$	(23,469	)

(a) For the period ended December 31, 2011, management asserted that the undistributed earnings of our Canadian subsidiaries were permanently reinvested and a deferred tax benefit of $4,023 was recognized from the release of the December 31, 2010 deferred tax liability. In periods prior to December 31, 2011, the undistributed earnings of our Canadian subsidiaries were not designated as permanently reinvested.

(b) In 2012, Ontario Bill 114 was signed into law. The enacted legislation freezes the general corporate income tax rate at 11.5%, cancelling the previously enacted rate reductions for 2012 and 2013 to 11% and 10%, respectively. As a result, a non-cash charge of $49 to income tax expense was recorded for the increase of the Canadian net deferred tax liability.

In 2011, the “Internal Revenue Code for a New Puerto Rico” was signed into law. Under the enacted legislation, the Puerto Rico corporate income tax rate was lowered from 39% to 30%. As a result, a non-cash charge of $1,743 to income tax expense was recorded for the reduction of the Puerto Rico net deferred tax asset.

During 2012, we generated $7,065 of U.S. net operating losses, primarily attributable to the accelerated tax depreciation provisions available under the Tax Relief, Unemployment Insurance Reauthorization, and Job Creation Act of 2010 that was signed into law by the President on December 17, 2010. As of December 31, 2012, we had approximately $356,149 of U.S. net operating loss carry forwards remaining to offset future taxable income. Of this amount, $22,403 is subject to an IRC §382 limitation, but will be available to be fully utilized by no later than 2017. These carry forwards expire between 2020 through 2032. In addition, we have $3,512 of various credits available to offset future U.S. federal income tax.

As of December 31, 2012, we have approximately $466,749 of state net operating loss carry forwards before valuation allowances. These state net operating losses are available to reduce future taxable income and expire at various times and amounts. In addition, we have $253 of various credits available to offset future state income tax. Management has determined that a valuation allowance related to state net operating loss carry forwards in certain jurisdictions is necessary. The valuation allowance for these deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 was $3,410 and $3,742, respectively. The net change in the total valuation allowance for each of the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010 was a (decrease) increase of $(332), $410 and $1,653, respectively.

During 2012, we generated $3,263 of Puerto Rico net operating losses. As of December 31, 2012, we had approximately $25,258 of Puerto Rico net operating losses available to offset future taxable income. These carry forwards expire between 2016 and 2022.

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income in those jurisdictions during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities (including the impact of available carry back and carry forward periods), projected future taxable income, and tax-planning strategies in making this assessment. In order to fully realize the deferred tax assets,

52

AND SUBSIDIARIES

(Dollars in thousands, except share and per share data)

the Company will need to generate future taxable income before the expiration of the carry forwards governed by the tax code. Based on the current level of pretax earnings and projected decreases in future depreciation and amortization, the Company will generate the minimum amount of future taxable income to support the realization of the deferred tax assets. Additionally, the company has a significant amount of deferred tax liabilities that will reverse during the same period and jurisdiction and are of the same character as the temporary differences giving rise to the deferred tax assets. As a result, management believes that it is more likely than not that we will realize the benefits of these deferred tax assets, net of the existing valuation allowances at December 31, 2012. The amount of the deferred tax asset considered realizable, however, could be reduced in the near term if estimates of future taxable income during the carry forward period are reduced.

We have not recognized a deferred tax liability of approximately $6,741 for the undistributed earnings of our Canadian operations that arose in 2012 and prior years as management considers these earnings to be indefinitely invested outside the U.S. As of December 31, 2012, the undistributed earnings of these subsidiaries were approximately $19,261.

Under ASC 740, we provide for uncertain tax positions, and the related interest, and adjust recognized tax benefits and accrued interest accordingly. A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits is as follows:

Balance as of December 31, 2010	$	322
Additions for tax positions related to current year		7
Additions for tax positions related to prior years		—
Reductions for tax positions related to prior years		—
Lapse of statute of limitations		(194	)
Settlements		—
Balance as of December 31, 2011	$	135
Additions for tax positions related to current year		3
Additions for tax positions related to prior years		—
Reductions for tax positions related to prior years		—
Lapse of statute of limitations		(63	)
Settlements		—
Balance as of December 31, 2012	$	75

Included in the balance of unrecognized benefits at December 31, 2012 is $75 of tax benefits that, if recognized in future periods, would impact our effective tax rate.

During the years ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we recognized interest and penalties of $3 and $7, respectively, as components of income tax expense in connection with our liabilities related to uncertain tax positions. Interest and penalties included in the balance at December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, was $14 and $27, respectively.

We are subject to income taxes in the U.S. and nearly all states. In addition, the Company is subject to income taxes in Canada and the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. We are no longer subject to U.S federal income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2010 since the IRS has completed review of our income tax returns through 2009, or for any U.S. state income tax audit prior to 2002. With respect to Canada and Puerto Rico, we are no longer subject to income tax audits for years before 2008 and 2007, respectively.

Within the next twelve months, it is reasonably possible, that we could decrease our unrecognized tax benefits up to $40 as a result of the expiration of statute of limitations.

(12) Related Party Transactions

Affiliates, as used within these statements, are persons or entities that are affiliated with Lamar Advertising Company or its subsidiaries through common ownership and directorate control.

Prior to 1996, the Company entered into various related party transactions for the purchase and sale of advertising structures whereby any resulting gains were deferred at that date. As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, the deferred gains related to these transactions were $85 and $941, respectively, and are included in deferred income on the balance sheets. No gains related to these transactions have been realized in the Statement of Operations for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010.

In addition, the Company had receivables from employees of $57 and $230 at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. These receivables are primarily relocation loans for employees. The Company does not have any receivables from its current executive officers.

Effective July 1, 1996, the Lamar Texas Limited Partnership, one of the Company’s subsidiaries, and Reilly Consulting Company, L.L.C., which was controlled by Kevin P. Reilly, Sr., entered into a consulting agreement, which was amended January 1, 2004. This consulting agreement as amended has a term through December 31, 2008 with automatic renewals for successive one year periods after that date unless either party provides written termination to the other. The amended agreement provides for an annual consulting fee of $190 for the five year period commencing on January 1, 2004 and an annual consulting fee of $150 for any subsequent one year renewal term. The agreement was renewed for an additional one year term effective as of December 31, 2011, at the previously agreed fee of $150 per year and terminated on September 30, 2012. The total consulting fees paid for the year ended December 31, 2012 was $112. The agreement has a non-disclosure provision and a non-competition restriction that will remain in effect until September 30, 2014.

In June 2011, the Company entered into a service contract with Joule Energy LA, LLC (“Joule”), of which Ross L. Reilly is a member and owns 26.66% interest. Joule provides services related to the Company’s installation of solar arrays in the State of Louisiana, which services are expected to be completed in 2012 and 2013. In addition, from time to time beginning in 2012, Joule provides lighting installation services for certain of Lamar Advertising’s billboards in the state of Louisiana. As of December 31, 2012, the aggregate amount paid to Joule under the service contract was approximately $1,328. Ross L. Reilly is the son of Kevin P. Reilly, Jr., our Chairman of the Board of Directors and President.

(13) Stockholders’ Equity

On July 16, 1999, the Board of Directors designated 5,720 shares of the 1,000,000 shares of previously undesignated preferred stock, par value $.001, as Series AA preferred stock. The Class A preferred stock, par value $638, was exchanged for the new Series AA preferred stock and no shares of Class A preferred stock are currently outstanding. The new Series AA preferred stock and the class A preferred stock rank senior to the Class A common stock and Class B common stock with respect to dividends and upon liquidation. Holders of Series AA preferred stock and Class A preferred stock are entitled to receive, on a pari passu basis, dividends at the rate of $15.95 per share per quarter when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors. The Series AA preferred stock and the Class A preferred stock are also entitled to receive, on a pari passu basis, $638 plus a further amount equal to any dividend accrued and unpaid to the date of distribution before any payments are made or assets distributed to the Class A common stock or Class B stock upon voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company. The liquidation value of the outstanding Series AA preferred stock at December 31, 2012 was $3,649. The Series AA preferred stock and the Class A preferred stock are identical, except that the Series AA preferred stock is entitled to one vote per share and the Class A preferred stock is not entitled to vote.

All of the outstanding shares of common stock are fully paid and nonassessable. In the event of the liquidation or dissolution of the Company, following any required distribution to the holders of outstanding shares of preferred stock, the holders of common stock are entitled to share pro rata in any balance of the corporate assets available for distribution to them. The Company may pay dividends if, when and as declared by the Board of Directors from funds legally available therefore, subject to the restrictions set forth in the Company’s existing indentures and the senior credit facility. Subject to the preferential rights of the holders of any class of preferred stock, holders of shares of common stock are entitled to receive such dividends as may be declared by the Company’s Board of directors out of funds legally available for such purpose. No dividend may be declared or paid in cash or property on any share of either class of common stock unless simultaneously the same dividend is declared or paid on each share of the other class of common stock, provided that, in the event of stock dividends, holders of a specific class of common stock shall be entitled to receive only additional shares of such class.

The rights of the Class A and Class B common stock are equal in all respects, except holders of Class B common stock have ten votes per share on all matters in which the holders of common stock are entitled to vote and holders of Class A common stock have one vote per share on such matters. The Class B common stock will convert automatically into Class A common stock upon the sale or transfer to persons other than permitted transferees (as defined in the Company’s certificate of incorporation, as amended).

(14) Stock Compensation Plans

Equity Incentive Plan. Lamar’s 1996 Equity Incentive Plan has reserved 13 million shares of common stock for issuance to directors and employees, including options granted and common stock reserved for issuance under its performance-based incentive program. Options granted under the plan expire ten years from the grant date with vesting terms ranging from three to five years which primarily includes 1) options that vest in one-fifth increments beginning on the grant date and continuing on each of the first four anniversaries of the grant date and 2) options that cliff-vest on the fifth anniversary of the grant date. All grants are made at fair market value based on the closing price of our Class A common stock as reported on the NASDAQ Global Select Market on the date of grant.

We use a Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model to estimate the fair value of share-based awards. The Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model incorporates various highly subjective assumptions, including expected term and expected volatility. We have reviewed our historical pattern of option exercises and have determined that meaningful differences in option exercise activity existed among vesting schedules. Therefore, for all stock options granted after January 1, 2006, we have categorized these awards into two groups of vesting 1) 5-year cliff vest and 2) 4-year graded vest, for valuation purposes. We have determined there were no meaningful differences in employee activity under our ESPP due to the nature of the plan.

We estimate the expected term of options granted using an implied life derived from the results of a hypothetical mid-point settlement scenario, which incorporates our historical exercise, expiration and post-vesting employment termination patterns, while accommodating for partial life cycle effects. We believe these estimates will approximate future behavior.

We estimate the expected volatility of our Class A common stock at the grant date using a blend of 75% historical volatility of our Class A common stock and 25% implied volatility of publicly traded options with maturities greater than six months on our Class A common stock as of the option grant date. Our decision to use a blend of historical and implied volatility was based upon the volume of actively traded options on our common stock and our belief that historical volatility alone may not be completely representative of future stock price trends.

Our risk-free interest rate assumption is determined using the Federal Reserve nominal rates for U.S. Treasury zero-coupon bonds with maturities similar to those of the expected term of the award being valued. We assumed an expected dividend yield of zero since the Company has historically not paid dividends on Class A common stock, except for special dividends in 2007.

We estimate option forfeitures at the time of grant and periodically revise those estimates in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. We record stock-based compensation expense only for those awards expected to vest using an estimated forfeiture rate based on our historical forfeiture data.

The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions used:

Grant Year	Dividend Yield			Expected Volatility			Risk Free Interest Rate			Expected Lives
2012		0	%		52	%		2	%		5
2011		0	%		52	%		2	%		5
2010		0	%		54	%		2	%		5

Information regarding the 1996 Plan for the year ended December 31, 2012 is as follows:

	Shares			Weighted Average Exercise Price		Weighted Average Contractual Life
Outstanding, beginning of year		2,702,629		$	21.27
Granted		68,000			33.04
Exercised		(586,563	)		17.66
Canceled		(59,180	)		31.57
Outstanding, end of year		2,124,886		$	22.36		6.15
Exercisable at end of year		1,506,925		$	23.30		5.89

At December 31, 2012 there was $2,969 of unrecognized compensation cost related to stock options granted which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.17 years.

On July 2, 2009, we completed a tender offer for 250 eligible participants to exchange some or all of certain outstanding options (the “Eligible Options”) for new options to be issued under the Company’s 1996 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended. We have accepted for cancellation Eligible Options to purchase an aggregate of 2,630,474 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock, representing 86.2% of the total number of shares of Class A common stock underlying all Eligible Options. In exchange for the Eligible Options surrendered in the Offer, we issued new options to purchase up to an aggregate of 1,030,819 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock under the 1996 Plan. Each new option has an exercise price per share of $15.67, the closing price of the Company’s Class A common stock on the NASDAQ Global Select Market on July 2, 2009. Eligible Options not tendered for exchange remain outstanding according to their original terms and are subject to the 1996 Plan. An incremental cost of $1,923 will be recognized over the 5 year vesting term of the new options using the bifurcation method.

The exchange of Eligible Options has been accounted for as a modification. In calculating the incremental compensation cost of a modification, the fair value of the modified award was compared to the fair value of the original award measured immediately before its terms and conditions were modified. The Company elected to use a binomial lattice model solely to determine the incremental compensation cost associated with the underwater options because it more appropriately captures exercise and cancellation patterns needed in the valuation. There were no significant changes in assumptions utilized in the determination of the incremental compensation cost of the modification.

Shares available for future stock option and restricted share grants to employees and directors under existing plans were 2,240,929 at December 31, 2012. The aggregate intrinsic value of options outstanding as of December 31, 2012 was $35,380, and the aggregate intrinsic value of options exercisable was $23,827. Total intrinsic value of options exercised was $10,430 for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Stock Purchase Plan. In 2009 our board of directors adopted a new employee stock purchase plan, the 2009 Employee Stock Purchase Plan or 2009 ESPP, which was approved by our shareholders on May 28, 2009. The 2009 ESPP reserved 588,154 shares of Class A common stock for issuance to our employees, which included 88,154 shares of Class A common stock that had been available for issuance under our 2000 Employee Stock Purchase Plan or 2000 ESPP. The 2000 ESPP was terminated following the issuance of all shares that were subject to the offer that commenced under the 2000 ESPP on January 1, 2009 and ended June 30, 2009. The terms of the 2009 ESPP are substantially the same as the 2000 ESPP.

The number of shares of Class A common stock available under the 2009 ESPP was automatically increased by 77,928 shares on January 1, 2012 pursuant to the automatic increase provisions of the 2009 ESPP and further increased by 250,000 shares of Class A common stock pursuant to an amendment to the 2009 Plan adopted by our board of directors on February 22, 2012 and approved by our stockholders at the Company’s 2012 Annual Meeting of Stockholders on May 24, 2012.

Performance-based compensation. Unrestricted shares of our Class A common stock may be awarded to key officers and employees under our 1996 Plan based on certain Company performance measures for fiscal 2012. The number of shares to be issued; if any, will be dependent on the level of achievement of these performance measures as determined by the Company’s Compensation Committee based on our 2012 results and were issued in the first quarter of 2013. The shares subject to these awards can range from a minimum of 0% to a maximum of 100% of the target number of shares depending on the level at which the goals are attained. Based on the Company’s performance measures achieved through December 31, 2012, the Company has accrued $7,970 as compensation expense related to these agreements.

The Company sponsors a partially self-insured group health insurance program. The Company is obligated to pay all claims under the program, which are in excess of premiums, up to program limits.

The Company has the option to match 50% of employees’ contributions up to 5% of eligible compensation. Employees can contribute up to 100% of compensation. Full vesting on the Company’s matched contributions occurs after three years for contributions made after January 1, 2002.

The Company matched contributions of $3,184, $2,870 and $1,263 for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Deferred Compensation Plan

The Company sponsors a Deferred Compensation Plan for the benefit of certain of its board-elected officers who meet specific age and years of service and other criteria. Officers that have attained the age of 30 and have a minimum of 10 years of service to the Company and satisfying additional eligibility guidelines are eligible for annual contributions to the Plan generally ranging from $3 to $8, depending on the employee’s length of service. The Company’s contributions to the Plan are maintained in a rabbi trust and, accordingly, the assets and liabilities of the Plan are reflected in the balance sheet of the Company in other assets and other liabilities. Upon termination, death or disability, participating employees are eligible to receive an amount equal to the fair market value of the assets in the employee’s deferred compensation account. For the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, the Company contributed $1,260, $1,223 and $1,164, respectively.

On December 8, 2005, the Company’s Board of Directors approved an amendment to the Lamar Deferred Compensation Plan in order to (1) to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code (“Section 409A”) applicable to deferred compensation and (2) to reflect changes in the administration of the Plan. The Company’s Board of Directors also approved the adoption of a grantor trust pursuant to which amounts may be set aside, but remain subject to claims of the Company’s creditors, for payments of liabilities under the new plan, including amounts contributed under the old plan. The plan was further amended in August 2007 to make certain amendments to reflect Section 409A regulations issued on April 10, 2007.

(16) Commitment and Contingencies

The Company is involved in various other claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the ultimate disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, or liquidity.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Dollars in thousands, except share and per share data)

(17) Summarized Financial Information of Subsidiaries

Separate financial statements of each of the Company’s direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiaries that have guaranteed Lamar Media’s obligations with respect to its publicly issued notes (collectively, the “Guarantors”) are not included herein because the Company has no independent assets or operations, the guarantees are full and unconditional and joint and several and the only subsidiaries that are not guarantors are in the aggregate minor.

Lamar Media’s ability to make distributions to Lamar Advertising is restricted under both the terms of the indentures relating to Lamar Media’s outstanding notes and by the terms of the senior credit facility. As of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, Lamar Media was permitted under the terms of its outstanding senior subordinated notes to make transfers to Lamar Advertising in the form of cash dividends, loans or advances in amounts up to $1,706,875 and $1,641,856, respectively. Transfers to Lamar Advertising are subject to additional restrictions if, (i) under the senior credit facility and as defined therein, (x) the total holdings debt ratio is greater than 5.75 to 1 or (y) the senior debt ratio is greater than 3.25 to 1.0, and (ii) if under the indenture for Lamar Media’s 9 3/4% senior notes and as defined therein, its senior leverage ratio is greater than or equal to 3.0 to 1. As of December 31, 2012, the total holdings debt ratio was less than 5.75 to 1 and Lamar Media’s senior debt ratio was less than 3.25 to 1 and its senior leverage ratio was less than 3.0 to 1; therefore, transfers to Lamar Advertising were not subject to any additional restrictions under the senior credit facility or pursuant to the indenture governing the 9 3/4% senior notes.

(18) Fair Value of Financial Instruments

At December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company’s financial instruments included cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities, accounts receivable, investments, accounts payable, borrowings and derivative contracts. The fair values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and short-term borrowings and current portion of long-term debt approximated carrying values because of the short-term nature of these instruments. Investments are reported at fair values. Fair values for investments held at cost are not readily available, but are estimated to approximate fair value. The estimated fair value of the Company’s long term debt (including current maturities) was $2,303,043, which exceeded both the gross and carrying amounts of $2,171,733 and $2,160,854, respectively, as of December 31, 2012.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

The management of Lamar Media Corp. is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act.

Lamar Media’s management assessed the effectiveness of Lamar Media’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal-Control Integrated Framework. Based on this assessment, Lamar Media’s management has concluded that, as of December 31, 2012, Lamar Media’s internal control over financial reporting is effective based on those criteria. The effectiveness of Lamar Media’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012 has been audited by KPMG LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report, which is included in Item 8 to this Annual Report.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Board of Directors and Stockholder

Lamar Media Corp.:

We have audited Lamar Media Corp.’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Lamar Media Corp.’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In our opinion, Lamar Media Corp. maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets of Lamar Media Corp. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), stockholder’s equity and comprehensive income (deficit), and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2012, and the financial statement schedule, and our report dated February 28, 2013 expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements and schedule.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Board of Directors and Stockholder

Lamar Media Corp.:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Lamar Media Corp. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), stockholder’s equity and comprehensive income (deficit), and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2012. In connection with our audits of the consolidated financial statements, we also have audited the financial statement schedule. These consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Lamar Media Corp. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2012, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Also in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), Lamar Media Corp.’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO), and our report dated February 28, 2013 expressed an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

(a) In periods prior to December 31, 2011, the undistributed earnings of our Canadian subsidiaries were not designated as permanently reinvested. For the period ended December 31, 2011, management asserted that the undistributed earnings of our Canadian subsidiaries were permanently reinvested and a deferred tax benefit of $4,023 was recognized from the release of the December 31, 2010 deferred tax liability.

(b) In 2012, Ontario Bill 114 was signed into law. The enacted legislation freezes the general corporate income tax rate at 11.5%, cancelling the previously enacted rate reductions for 2012 and 2013 to 11% and 10%, respectively. As a result, a non-cash charge of $49 to income tax expense was recorded for the increase of the Canadian net deferred tax liability.

In 2011, the “Internal Revenue Code for a New Puerto Rico” was signed into law. Under the enacted legislation, the Puerto Rico corporate income tax rate was lowered from 39% to 30%. As a result, a non-cash charge of $1,743 to income tax expense was recorded for the reduction of the Puerto Rico net deferred tax asset.

The tax effect of temporary differences that give rise to significant portions of the deferred tax assets and (liabilities) are presented below:

	2012			2011
Deferred tax assets:
Allowance for doubtful accounts	$	2,964		$	2,954
Accrued liabilities not deducted for tax purposes		35,580			33,583
Asset retirement obligation		65,994			61,565
Net operating loss carry forwards		105,918			99,811
Tax credit carry forwards		18,537			18,496
Charitable contributions carry forward		592			469
Gross deferred tax assets		229,585			216,878
Less: valuation allowance		(2,851	)		(3,205	)
Net deferred tax assets		226,734			213,673
Deferred tax liabilities:
Property, plant and equipment		(48,271	)		(36,967	)
Intangibles		(307,630	)		(291,291	)

Gross deferred tax liabilities		(357,145	)		(329,323	)
Net deferred tax liabilities	$	(130,411	)	$	(115,650	)

Noncurrent deferred tax liabilities		(141,228	)		(125,462	)
Net deferred tax liabilities	$	(130,411	)	$	(115,650	)

During 2012, we generated $6,730 of U.S. net operating losses, primarily attributable to the accelerated tax depreciation provisions available under the Tax Relief, Unemployment Insurance Reauthorization, and Job Creation Act of 2010 that was signed into law by the President on December 17, 2010. As of December 31, 2012, we had approximately $220,723 of U.S. net operating loss carry forwards remaining to offset future taxable income. Of this amount, $22,403 is subject to an IRC §382 limitation, but will be available to be fully utilized by no later than 2017. These carry forwards expire between 2020 and 2031. In addition, we have $18,284 of various credits available to offset future U.S. federal income tax.

(Dollars in thousands, except share and per share data)

As of December 31, 2012, we have approximately $429,362 state net operating loss carry forwards before valuation allowances. These state net operating losses are available to reduce future taxable income and expire at various times and amounts. In addition, we have $253 of various credits available to offset future state income tax. Management has determined that a valuation allowance related to state net operating loss carry forwards is necessary. The valuation allowance for these deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 was $2,836 and $3,192, respectively. The net change in the total valuation allowance for each of the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010 was a (decrease) increase of $(356), $407 and $1,106, respectively.

During 2012, we generated $3,263 of Puerto Rico net operating losses. As of December 31, 2012, we had approximately $25,258 of Puerto Rico net operating losses available to offset future taxable income. These carry forwards expire between 2016 and 2022.

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income in those jurisdictions during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities (including the impact of available carry back and carry forward periods), projected future taxable income, and tax-planning strategies in making this assessment. In order to fully realize the deferred tax assets, the company will need to generate future taxable income before the expiration of the carry forwards governed by the tax code. Based on the current level of pretax earnings for financial reporting purposes and projected decreases in future depreciation and amortization, we will generate the minimum amount of future taxable income to support the realization of the deferred tax assets. Additionally, the company has a significant amount of deferred tax liabilities that will reverse during the same period and jurisdiction and is of the same character as the temporary differences giving rise to the deferred tax assets. As a result, management believes that it is more likely than not that we will realize the benefits of these deferred tax assets, net of the existing valuation allowances at December 31, 2012. The amount of the deferred tax asset considered realizable, however, could be reduced in the near term if estimates of future taxable income during the carry forward period are reduced.

We have not recognized a deferred tax liability of approximately $6,741 for the undistributed earnings of our Canadian operations that arose in 2012 and prior years as management considers these earnings to be indefinitely invested outside the U.S. As of December 31, 2012, the undistributed earnings of these subsidiaries were approximately $19,261.

Under ASC 740, we provide for uncertain tax positions, and the related interest, and adjust recognized tax benefits and accrued interest accordingly. A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits is as follows:

Balance as of December 31, 2010	$	322
Additions for tax positions related to current year		7
Additions for tax positions related to prior years		—
Reductions for tax positions related to prior years		—
Lapse of statute of limitations		(194	)
Settlements		—
Balance as of December 31, 2011	$	135
Additions for tax positions related to current year		3
Additions for tax positions related to prior years		—
Reductions for tax positions related to prior years		—
Lapse of statute of limitations		(63	)
Settlements		—
Balance as of December 31, 2012	$	75

Included in the balance of unrecognized benefits at December 31, 2012 is $75 of tax benefits that, if recognized in future periods, would impact our effective tax rate.

During the years ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we recognized interest and penalties of $3 and $7, respectively, as components of income tax expense in connection with our liabilities related to uncertain tax positions. Interest and penalties included in the balance at December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, was $14 and $27, respectively.

We are subject to income taxes in the U.S. and nearly all states. In addition, the Company is subject to income taxes in Canada and the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. We are no longer subject to U.S federal income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2010 since the IRS has completed review of our income tax returns through 2009, or for any U.S. state income tax audit prior to 2002. With respect to Canada and Puerto Rico, we are no longer subject to income tax audits for years before 2008 and 2007, respectively.

Within the next twelve months, it is reasonably possible, that we could decrease our unrecognized tax benefits up to $40 as a result of the expiration of statute of limitations.

(7) Related Party Transactions

Affiliates, as used within these statements, are persons or entities that are affiliated with Lamar Media Corp. or its subsidiaries through common ownership and directorate control.

Schedule of Effective Income Tax Rate Reconciliation

A reconciliation of significant differences between the reported amount of income tax expense (benefit) and the expected amount of income tax expense (benefit) that would result from applying the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate of 35 percent to income before taxes is as follows:

	2012			2011			2010
Income tax expense (benefit) at U.S. federal statutory rate	$	6,754		$	5,310		$	(22,250	)

Other differences, net		9			1,042			(27	)
Income tax expense (benefit)	$	9,476		$	6,623		$	(23,469	)

(a) For the period ended December 31, 2011, management asserted that the undistributed earnings of our Canadian subsidiaries were permanently reinvested and a deferred tax benefit of $4,023 was recognized from the release of the December 31, 2010 deferred tax liability. In periods prior to December 31, 2011, the undistributed earnings of our Canadian subsidiaries were not designated as permanently reinvested.

(b) In 2012, Ontario Bill 114 was signed into law. The enacted legislation freezes the general corporate income tax rate at 11.5%, cancelling the previously enacted rate reductions for 2012 and 2013 to 11% and 10%, respectively. As a result, a non-cash charge of $49 to income tax expense was recorded for the increase of the Canadian net deferred tax liability.

In 2011, the “Internal Revenue Code for a New Puerto Rico” was signed into law. Under the enacted legislation, the Puerto Rico corporate income tax rate was lowered from 39% to 30%. As a result, a non-cash charge of $1,743 to income tax expense was recorded for the reduction of the Puerto Rico net deferred tax asset.

In 2011, the “Internal Revenue Code for a New Puerto Rico” was signed into law. Under the enacted legislation, the Puerto Rico corporate income tax rate was lowered from 39% to 30%. As a result, a non-cash charge of $1,743 to income tax expense was recorded for the reduction of the Puerto Rico net deferred tax asset.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

(18) Fair Value of Financial Instruments

At December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company’s financial instruments included cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities, accounts receivable, investments, accounts payable, borrowings and derivative contracts. The fair values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and short-term borrowings and current portion of long-term debt approximated carrying values because of the short-term nature of these instruments. Investments are reported at fair values. Fair values for investments held at cost are not readily available, but are estimated to approximate fair value. The estimated fair value of the Company’s long term debt (including current maturities) was $2,303,043, which exceeded both the gross and carrying amounts of $2,171,733 and $2,160,854, respectively, as of December 31, 2012.

Acquisitions

(2) Acquisitions

Year Ended December 31, 2012

During the twelve months ended December 31, 2012, the Company completed several acquisitions of outdoor advertising assets for a total purchase price of approximately $230,009, of which $206,068 was in cash and $23,941 in non-cash consideration consisting principally of exchanges of outdoor advertising assets. As a result of the acquisitions, a gain of $9,805 was recorded for transactions which involved the exchange of outdoor advertising assets during the year ended December 31, 2012.

Each of these acquisitions was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting, and, accordingly, the accompanying consolidated financial statements include the results of operations of each acquired entity from the date of acquisition. The acquisition costs have been allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on preliminary fair market value estimates at the dates of acquisition. The allocations are pending final determination of the fair value of certain assets and liabilities. The following is a summary of the preliminary allocation of the acquisition costs in the above transactions.

	Total
Property, plant and equipment	$	74,326
Goodwill		60,968
Site locations		78,288
Non-competition agreements		80
Customer lists and contracts		18,148
Other asset		7,763
Current liabilities		(3,424	)
Long-term liabilities		(6,140	)
	$	230,009

Total acquired intangible assets for the year ended December 31, 2012 were $157,484, of which $60,968 was assigned to goodwill. Although goodwill is not amortized for financial statement purposes, $23,937 is expected to be fully deductible for tax purposes. The remaining $96,516 of acquired intangible assets have a weighted average useful life of approximately 14 years. The intangible assets include customer lists and contracts of $18,148 (7 year weighted average useful life) and site locations of $78,288 (15 year weighted average useful life). The aggregate amortization expense related to the 2012 acquisitions for the year ended December 31, 2012 was approximately $679.

The following unaudited pro forma financial information for the Company gives effect to the 2012 and 2011 acquisitions as if they had occurred on January 1, 2011. These pro forma results do not purport to be indicative of the results of operations which actually would have resulted had the acquisitions occurred on such date or to project the Company’s results of operations for any future period.

Year Ended December 31, 2011

During the twelve months ended December 31, 2011, the Company completed several acquisitions of outdoor advertising assets for a total purchase price of approximately $23,497 in cash.

Each of these acquisitions was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting, and, accordingly, the accompanying consolidated financial statements include the results of operations of each acquired entity from the date of acquisition. The acquisition costs have been allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on preliminary fair market value estimates at the dates of acquisition. The allocations are pending final determination of the fair value of certain assets and liabilities. The following is a summary of the preliminary allocation of the acquisition costs in the above transactions.

	$	23,497

Total acquired intangible assets for the year ended December 31, 2011 were $11,033, of which $775 was assigned to goodwill. Although goodwill is not amortized for financial statement purposes, substantially all of the $775 is expected to be fully deductible for tax purposes. The remaining $10,258 of acquired intangible assets have a weighted average useful life of approximately 14 years. The intangible assets include customer lists and contracts of $2,010 (7 year weighted average useful life) and site locations of $8,147 (15 year weighted average useful life). The aggregate amortization expense related to the 2011 acquisitions for the year ended December 31, 2011 was approximately $358.

Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)

12 Months Ended

Dec. 31, 2012

Nature of Business

(a) Nature of Business

Lamar Advertising Company (the Company) is engaged in the outdoor advertising business, operating approximately 144,000 billboard advertising displays in 44 states, Canada and Puerto Rico. The Company’s operating strategy is to be the leading provider of outdoor advertising services in the markets it serves.

In addition, the Company operates a logo sign business in 22 states throughout the United States and the province of Ontario, Canada and a transit advertising business in over 60 markets. Logo signs are erected pursuant to state-awarded service contracts on public rights-of-way near highway exits and deliver brand name information on available gas, food, lodging and camping services. Included in the Company’s logo sign business are tourism signing contracts. The Company provides transit advertising on bus shelters, benches and buses in the markets it serves.

Principles of Consolidation

(b) Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include Lamar Advertising Company, its wholly owned subsidiary, Lamar Media Corp. (Lamar Media), and its majority-owned subsidiaries. All inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

An operating segment is a component of an enterprise:

• that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses;

• whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the enterprise’s chief operating decision maker to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance; and

• for which discrete financial information is available.

We define the term ‘chief operating decision maker’ to be our executive management group, which consist of our Chief Executive Officer, President and Chief Financial Officer. Currently, all operations are reviewed on a consolidated basis for budget and business plan performance by our executive management group. Additionally, operational performance at the end of each reporting period is viewed in the aggregate by our management group. Any decisions related to changes in invested capital, personnel, operational improvement or training, or to allocate other company resources are made based on the combined results.

We operate in a single operating and reporting segment, advertising. We sell advertising on billboards, buses, shelters and benches and logo plates.

Property, Plant and Equipment

(c) Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is calculated using accelerated and straight-line methods over the estimated useful lives of the assets.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

(d) Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill is subject to an annual impairment test. The Company designated December 31 as the date of its annual goodwill impairment test. Impairment testing involves various estimates and assumptions, which could vary, and an analysis of relevant market data and market capitalization. If industry and economic conditions deteriorate, the Company may be required to assess goodwill impairment before the next annual test, which could result in impairment charges.

The Company is required to identify its reporting units and determine the carrying value of each reporting unit by assigning the assets and liabilities, including the existing goodwill and intangible assets, to those reporting units. The Company is required to determine the fair value of each reporting unit and compare it to the carrying amount of the reporting unit. To the extent the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, the Company would be required to perform the second step of the impairment test, as this is an indication that the reporting unit goodwill may be impaired. The fair value of each reporting unit exceeded its carrying amount at its annual impairment test date on December 31, 2012 and 2011, therefore, the Company was not required to recognize an impairment loss.

Intangible assets, consisting primarily of site locations, customer lists and contracts, and non-competition agreements are amortized using the straight-line method over the assets estimated useful lives, generally from 3 to 15 years.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

(e) Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets, such as property, plant and equipment, and purchased intangibles subject to amortization, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset before interest expense. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. Assets to be disposed of would be separately presented in the balance sheet and reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell, and are no longer depreciated. The assets and liabilities of a disposed group classified as held for sale would be presented separately in the appropriate asset and liability sections of the balance sheet.

Deferred Income

(f) Deferred Income

Deferred income consists principally of advertising revenue invoiced in advance and gains resulting from the sale of certain assets to related parties. Deferred advertising revenue is recognized in income as services are provided over the term of the contract.

Revenue Recognition

(g) Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes outdoor advertising revenue on an accrual basis ratably over the term of the contracts, as services are provided. Production revenue and the related expense for the advertising copy are recognized upon completion of the sale.

The Company engages in barter transactions where the Company trades advertising space for goods and services. The Company recognizes revenues and expenses from barter transactions at fair value, which is determined based on the Company’s own historical practice of receiving cash for similar advertising space from buyers unrelated to the party in the barter transaction. The amount of revenue and expense recognized for advertising barter transactions is as follows:

	2012		2011		2010
Net revenues	$	6,798	$	7,153	$	6,608
Direct advertising expenses	$	2,900	$	2,766	$	2,768
General and administrative expenses	$	3,699	$	3,524	$	3,242

Income Taxes

(h) Income Taxes

The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under the asset and liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

Earnings Per Share

(i) Earnings Per Share

The calculation of basic earnings per share excludes any dilutive effect of stock options and convertible debt, while diluted earnings per share includes the dilutive effect of stock options and convertible debt. For the years ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, there were no dilutive shares excluded from the calculation. For the year ended December 31, 2010, there were $465,820 shares excluded from the calculation due to their anti-dilutive effect.

Stock Based Compensation

(j) Stock Based Compensation

Compensation expense for share-based awards is recognized based on the grant date fair value of those awards. Stock-based compensation expense includes an estimate for pre-vesting forfeitures and is recognized over the requisite service periods of the awards on a straight-line basis, which is generally commensurate with the vesting term. Non-cash compensation expense recognized during the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010 were $14,466, $11,650 and $17,839. The $14,466 expensed during the year ended December 31, 2012 consists of (i) $6,249 related to stock options, (ii) $7,970 related to stock grants, made under the Company’s performance-based stock incentive program in 2012 (iii) $247 related to stock awards to directors. See Note 14 for information on the assumptions we used to calculate the fair value of stock-based compensation.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

(k) Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly-liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Foreign Currency Translation

(l) Foreign Currency Translation

Local currencies generally are considered the functional currencies outside the United States. Assets and liabilities for operations in local-currency environments are translated at year-end exchange rates. Income and expense items are translated at average rates of exchange prevailing during the year. Foreign currency translation adjustments are recorded as a component of other comprehensive income in the Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) and as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (deficit) in Consolidated Statement of Stockholders’ Equity and Comprehensive Income (Deficit).

Asset Retirement Obligations

(m) Asset Retirement Obligations

The Company is required to record the present value of obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets in the period in which it is incurred. The liability is capitalized as part of the related long-lived asset’s carrying amount. Over time, accretion of the liability is recognized as an operating expense and the capitalized cost is depreciated over the expected useful life of the related asset. The Company’s asset retirement obligations relate primarily to the dismantlement, removal, site reclamation and similar activities of its properties.

Use of Estimates

(n) Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Comprehensive Income

(o) Comprehensive Income

Total comprehensive income is presented in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) and the components of accumulated other comprehensive income (deficit) are presented in the Consolidated Statement of Stockholders’ Equity and Comprehensive Income (Deficit). Comprehensive Income (Loss) is composed of foreign currency translation effects.

Subsequent Events

(p) Subsequent Events

The Company has performed an evaluation of subsequent events through the date on which the financial statements are issued.

Significant Accounting Policies

(1) Significant Accounting Policies

(a) Nature of Business

Lamar Advertising Company (the Company) is engaged in the outdoor advertising business, operating approximately 144,000 billboard advertising displays in 44 states, Canada and Puerto Rico. The Company’s operating strategy is to be the leading provider of outdoor advertising services in the markets it serves.

In addition, the Company operates a logo sign business in 22 states throughout the United States and the province of Ontario, Canada and a transit advertising business in over 60 markets. Logo signs are erected pursuant to state-awarded service contracts on public rights-of-way near highway exits and deliver brand name information on available gas, food, lodging and camping services. Included in the Company’s logo sign business are tourism signing contracts. The Company provides transit advertising on bus shelters, benches and buses in the markets it serves.

(b) Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include Lamar Advertising Company, its wholly owned subsidiary, Lamar Media Corp. (Lamar Media), and its majority-owned subsidiaries. All inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

An operating segment is a component of an enterprise:

• that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses;

• whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the enterprise’s chief operating decision maker to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance; and

• for which discrete financial information is available.

We define the term ‘chief operating decision maker’ to be our executive management group, which consist of our Chief Executive Officer, President and Chief Financial Officer. Currently, all operations are reviewed on a consolidated basis for budget and business plan performance by our executive management group. Additionally, operational performance at the end of each reporting period is viewed in the aggregate by our management group. Any decisions related to changes in invested capital, personnel, operational improvement or training, or to allocate other company resources are made based on the combined results.

We operate in a single operating and reporting segment, advertising. We sell advertising on billboards, buses, shelters and benches and logo plates.

(c) Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is calculated using accelerated and straight-line methods over the estimated useful lives of the assets.

(d) Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill is subject to an annual impairment test. The Company designated December 31 as the date of its annual goodwill impairment test. Impairment testing involves various estimates and assumptions, which could vary, and an analysis of relevant market data and market capitalization. If industry and economic conditions deteriorate, the Company may be required to assess goodwill impairment before the next annual test, which could result in impairment charges.

The Company is required to identify its reporting units and determine the carrying value of each reporting unit by assigning the assets and liabilities, including the existing goodwill and intangible assets, to those reporting units. The Company is required to determine the fair value of each reporting unit and compare it to the carrying amount of the reporting unit. To the extent the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, the Company would be required to perform the second step of the impairment test, as this is an indication that the reporting unit goodwill may be impaired. The fair value of each reporting unit exceeded its carrying amount at its annual impairment test date on December 31, 2012 and 2011, therefore, the Company was not required to recognize an impairment loss.

Intangible assets, consisting primarily of site locations, customer lists and contracts, and non-competition agreements are amortized using the straight-line method over the assets estimated useful lives, generally from 3 to 15 years.

(e) Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets, such as property, plant and equipment, and purchased intangibles subject to amortization, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset before interest expense. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. Assets to be disposed of would be separately presented in the balance sheet and reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell, and are no longer depreciated. The assets and liabilities of a disposed group classified as held for sale would be presented separately in the appropriate asset and liability sections of the balance sheet.

(f) Deferred Income

Deferred income consists principally of advertising revenue invoiced in advance and gains resulting from the sale of certain assets to related parties. Deferred advertising revenue is recognized in income as services are provided over the term of the contract.

(g) Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes outdoor advertising revenue on an accrual basis ratably over the term of the contracts, as services are provided. Production revenue and the related expense for the advertising copy are recognized upon completion of the sale.

The Company engages in barter transactions where the Company trades advertising space for goods and services. The Company recognizes revenues and expenses from barter transactions at fair value, which is determined based on the Company’s own historical practice of receiving cash for similar advertising space from buyers unrelated to the party in the barter transaction. The amount of revenue and expense recognized for advertising barter transactions is as follows:

	2012		2011		2010
Net revenues	$	6,798	$	7,153	$	6,608
Direct advertising expenses	$	2,900	$	2,766	$	2,768
General and administrative expenses	$	3,699	$	3,524	$	3,242

(h) Income Taxes

The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under the asset and liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

(i) Earnings Per Share

The calculation of basic earnings per share excludes any dilutive effect of stock options and convertible debt, while diluted earnings per share includes the dilutive effect of stock options and convertible debt. For the years ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, there were no dilutive shares excluded from the calculation. For the year ended December 31, 2010, there were $465,820 shares excluded from the calculation due to their anti-dilutive effect.

(j) Stock Based Compensation

Compensation expense for share-based awards is recognized based on the grant date fair value of those awards. Stock-based compensation expense includes an estimate for pre-vesting forfeitures and is recognized over the requisite service periods of the awards on a straight-line basis, which is generally commensurate with the vesting term. Non-cash compensation expense recognized during the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010 were $14,466, $11,650 and $17,839. The $14,466 expensed during the year ended December 31, 2012 consists of (i) $6,249 related to stock options, (ii) $7,970 related to stock grants, made under the Company’s performance-based stock incentive program in 2012 (iii) $247 related to stock awards to directors. See Note 14 for information on the assumptions we used to calculate the fair value of stock-based compensation.

(k) Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly-liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

(l) Foreign Currency Translation

Local currencies generally are considered the functional currencies outside the United States. Assets and liabilities for operations in local-currency environments are translated at year-end exchange rates. Income and expense items are translated at average rates of exchange prevailing during the year. Foreign currency translation adjustments are recorded as a component of other comprehensive income in the Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) and as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (deficit) in Consolidated Statement of Stockholders’ Equity and Comprehensive Income (Deficit).

(m) Asset Retirement Obligations

The Company is required to record the present value of obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets in the period in which it is incurred. The liability is capitalized as part of the related long-lived asset’s carrying amount. Over time, accretion of the liability is recognized as an operating expense and the capitalized cost is depreciated over the expected useful life of the related asset. The Company’s asset retirement obligations relate primarily to the dismantlement, removal, site reclamation and similar activities of its properties.

(n) Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

(o) Comprehensive Income

Total comprehensive income is presented in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) and the components of accumulated other comprehensive income (deficit) are presented in the Consolidated Statement of Stockholders’ Equity and Comprehensive Income (Deficit). Comprehensive Income (Loss) is composed of foreign currency translation effects.

(p) Subsequent Events

The Company has performed an evaluation of subsequent events through the date on which the financial statements are issued.

Benefit Plans

(15) Benefit Plans

The Company sponsors a partially self-insured group health insurance program. The Company is obligated to pay all claims under the program, which are in excess of premiums, up to program limits. The Company is also self-insured with respect to its income disability benefits and against casualty losses on advertising structures. Amounts for expected losses, including a provision for losses incurred but not reported, is included in accrued expenses in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. As of December 31, 2012, the Company maintained $6,767 in letters of credit with a bank to meet requirements of the Company’s worker’s compensation and general liability insurance carrier.

Savings and Profit Sharing Plan

The Company sponsors The Lamar Corporation Savings and Profit Sharing Plan covering eligible employees who have completed one year of service and are at least 21 years of age. The Company has the option to match 50% of employees’ contributions up to 5% of eligible compensation. Employees can contribute up to 100% of compensation. Full vesting on the Company’s matched contributions occurs after three years for contributions made after January 1, 2002. Annually, at the Company’s discretion, an additional profit sharing contribution may be made on behalf of each eligible employee. The Company matched contributions of $3,184, $2,870 and $1,263 for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Deferred Compensation Plan

The Company sponsors a Deferred Compensation Plan for the benefit of certain of its board-elected officers who meet specific age and years of service and other criteria. Officers that have attained the age of 30 and have a minimum of 10 years of service to the Company and satisfying additional eligibility guidelines are eligible for annual contributions to the Plan generally ranging from $3 to $8, depending on the employee’s length of service. The Company’s contributions to the Plan are maintained in a rabbi trust and, accordingly, the assets and liabilities of the Plan are reflected in the balance sheet of the Company in other assets and other liabilities. Upon termination, death or disability, participating employees are eligible to receive an amount equal to the fair market value of the assets in the employee’s deferred compensation account. For the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, the Company contributed $1,260, $1,223 and $1,164, respectively.

On December 8, 2005, the Company’s Board of Directors approved an amendment to the Lamar Deferred Compensation Plan in order to (1) to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code (“Section 409A”) applicable to deferred compensation and (2) to reflect changes in the administration of the Plan. The Company’s Board of Directors also approved the adoption of a grantor trust pursuant to which amounts may be set aside, but remain subject to claims of the Company’s creditors, for payments of liabilities under the new plan, including amounts contributed under the old plan. The plan was further amended in August 2007 to make certain amendments to reflect Section 409A regulations issued on April 10, 2007.

Summarized Financial Information of Subsidiaries

(17) Summarized Financial Information of Subsidiaries

Separate financial statements of each of the Company’s direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiaries that have guaranteed Lamar Media’s obligations with respect to its publicly issued notes (collectively, the “Guarantors”) are not included herein because the Company has no independent assets or operations, the guarantees are full and unconditional and joint and several and the only subsidiaries that are not guarantors are in the aggregate minor.

Lamar Media’s ability to make distributions to Lamar Advertising is restricted under both the terms of the indentures relating to Lamar Media’s outstanding notes and by the terms of the senior credit facility. As of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, Lamar Media was permitted under the terms of its outstanding senior subordinated notes to make transfers to Lamar Advertising in the form of cash dividends, loans or advances in amounts up to $1,706,875 and $1,641,856, respectively. Transfers to Lamar Advertising are subject to additional restrictions if, (i) under the senior credit facility and as defined therein, (x) the total holdings debt ratio is greater than 5.75 to 1 or (y) the senior debt ratio is greater than 3.25 to 1.0, and (ii) if under the indenture for Lamar Media’s 9 3/4% senior notes and as defined therein, its senior leverage ratio is greater than or equal to 3.0 to 1. As of December 31, 2012, the total holdings debt ratio was less than 5.75 to 1 and Lamar Media’s senior debt ratio was less than 3.25 to 1 and its senior leverage ratio was less than 3.0 to 1; therefore, transfers to Lamar Advertising were not subject to any additional restrictions under the senior credit facility or pursuant to the indenture governing the 9 3/4% senior notes.

As of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the Company had income taxes (payable) receivable of $(252) and $381, included in accrued expenses and other current assets, respectively.

The U.S. and foreign components of earnings (loss) before income taxes are as follows:

	2012			2011			2010
U.S.	$	20,444		$	16,641		$	(59,353	)

A reconciliation of significant differences between the reported amount of income tax expense (benefit) and the expected amount of income tax expense (benefit) that would result from applying the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate of 35 percent to income before taxes is as follows:

Other differences, net		9			1,042			(27	)
Income tax expense (benefit)	$	9,476		$	6,623		$	(23,469	)

(a) For the period ended December 31, 2011, management asserted that the undistributed earnings of our Canadian subsidiaries were permanently reinvested and a deferred tax benefit of $4,023 was recognized from the release of the December 31, 2010 deferred tax liability. In periods prior to December 31, 2011, the undistributed earnings of our Canadian subsidiaries were not designated as permanently reinvested.

(b) In 2012, Ontario Bill 114 was signed into law. The enacted legislation freezes the general corporate income tax rate at 11.5%, cancelling the previously enacted rate reductions for 2012 and 2013 to 11% and 10%, respectively. As a result, a non-cash charge of $49 to income tax expense was recorded for the increase of the Canadian net deferred tax liability.

In 2011, the “Internal Revenue Code for a New Puerto Rico” was signed into law. Under the enacted legislation, the Puerto Rico corporate income tax rate was lowered from 39% to 30%. As a result, a non-cash charge of $1,743 to income tax expense was recorded for the reduction of the Puerto Rico net deferred tax asset.

The tax effect of temporary differences that give rise to significant portions of the deferred tax assets and (liabilities) are presented below:

	2012			2011
Deferred tax assets:
Allowance for doubtful accounts	$	2,964		$	2,954
Accrued liabilities not deducted for tax purposes		35,580			33,583
Asset retirement obligation		65,994			61,565

Net deferred tax liabilities	$	(97,156	)	$	(82,505	)

During 2012, we generated $7,065 of U.S. net operating losses, primarily attributable to the accelerated tax depreciation provisions available under the Tax Relief, Unemployment Insurance Reauthorization, and Job Creation Act of 2010 that was signed into law by the President on December 17, 2010. As of December 31, 2012, we had approximately $356,149 of U.S. net operating loss carry forwards remaining to offset future taxable income. Of this amount, $22,403 is subject to an IRC §382 limitation, but will be available to be fully utilized by no later than 2017. These carry forwards expire between 2020 through 2032. In addition, we have $3,512 of various credits available to offset future U.S. federal income tax.

As of December 31, 2012, we have approximately $466,749 of state net operating loss carry forwards before valuation allowances. These state net operating losses are available to reduce future taxable income and expire at various times and amounts. In addition, we have $253 of various credits available to offset future state income tax. Management has determined that a valuation allowance related to state net operating loss carry forwards in certain jurisdictions is necessary. The valuation allowance for these deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 was $3,410 and $3,742, respectively. The net change in the total valuation allowance for each of the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010 was a (decrease) increase of $(332), $410 and $1,653, respectively.

During 2012, we generated $3,263 of Puerto Rico net operating losses. As of December 31, 2012, we had approximately $25,258 of Puerto Rico net operating losses available to offset future taxable income. These carry forwards expire between 2016 and 2022.

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income in those jurisdictions during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities (including the impact of available carry back and carry forward periods), projected future taxable income, and tax-planning strategies in making this assessment. In order to fully realize the deferred tax assets,

the Company will need to generate future taxable income before the expiration of the carry forwards governed by the tax code. Based on the current level of pretax earnings and projected decreases in future depreciation and amortization, the Company will generate the minimum amount of future taxable income to support the realization of the deferred tax assets. Additionally, the company has a significant amount of deferred tax liabilities that will reverse during the same period and jurisdiction and are of the same character as the temporary differences giving rise to the deferred tax assets. As a result, management believes that it is more likely than not that we will realize the benefits of these deferred tax assets, net of the existing valuation allowances at December 31, 2012. The amount of the deferred tax asset considered realizable, however, could be reduced in the near term if estimates of future taxable income during the carry forward period are reduced.

We have not recognized a deferred tax liability of approximately $6,741 for the undistributed earnings of our Canadian operations that arose in 2012 and prior years as management considers these earnings to be indefinitely invested outside the U.S. As of December 31, 2012, the undistributed earnings of these subsidiaries were approximately $19,261.

Under ASC 740, we provide for uncertain tax positions, and the related interest, and adjust recognized tax benefits and accrued interest accordingly. A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits is as follows:

Balance as of December 31, 2010	$	322
Additions for tax positions related to current year		7
Additions for tax positions related to prior years		—
Reductions for tax positions related to prior years		—
Lapse of statute of limitations		(194	)
Settlements		—
Balance as of December 31, 2011	$	135
Additions for tax positions related to current year		3
Additions for tax positions related to prior years		—
Reductions for tax positions related to prior years		—
Lapse of statute of limitations		(63	)
Settlements		—
Balance as of December 31, 2012	$	75

Included in the balance of unrecognized benefits at December 31, 2012 is $75 of tax benefits that, if recognized in future periods, would impact our effective tax rate.

During the years ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we recognized interest and penalties of $3 and $7, respectively, as components of income tax expense in connection with our liabilities related to uncertain tax positions. Interest and penalties included in the balance at December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, was $14 and $27, respectively.

We are subject to income taxes in the U.S. and nearly all states. In addition, the Company is subject to income taxes in Canada and the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. We are no longer subject to U.S federal income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2010 since the IRS has completed review of our income tax returns through 2009, or for any U.S. state income tax audit prior to 2002. With respect to Canada and Puerto Rico, we are no longer subject to income tax audits for years before 2008 and 2007, respectively.

Within the next twelve months, it is reasonably possible, that we could decrease our unrecognized tax benefits up to $40 as a result of the expiration of statute of limitations.

During 2012, we generated $6,730 of U.S. net operating losses, primarily attributable to the accelerated tax depreciation provisions available under the Tax Relief, Unemployment Insurance Reauthorization, and Job Creation Act of 2010 that was signed into law by the President on December 17, 2010. As of December 31, 2012, we had approximately $220,723 of U.S. net operating loss carry forwards remaining to offset future taxable income. Of this amount, $22,403 is subject to an IRC §382 limitation, but will be available to be fully utilized by no later than 2017. These carry forwards expire between 2020 and 2031. In addition, we have $18,284 of various credits available to offset future U.S. federal income tax.

As of December 31, 2012, we have approximately $429,362 state net operating loss carry forwards before valuation allowances. These state net operating losses are available to reduce future taxable income and expire at various times and amounts. In addition, we have $253 of various credits available to offset future state income tax. Management has determined that a valuation allowance related to state net operating loss carry forwards is necessary. The valuation allowance for these deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 was $2,836 and $3,192, respectively. The net change in the total valuation allowance for each of the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010 was a (decrease) increase of $(356), $407 and $1,106, respectively.

During 2012, we generated $3,263 of Puerto Rico net operating losses. As of December 31, 2012, we had approximately $25,258 of Puerto Rico net operating losses available to offset future taxable income. These carry forwards expire between 2016 and 2022.

Included in the balance of unrecognized benefits at December 31, 2012 is $75 of tax benefits that, if recognized in future periods, would impact our effective tax rate.

During the years ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we recognized interest and penalties of $3 and $7, respectively, as components of income tax expense in connection with our liabilities related to uncertain tax positions. Interest and penalties included in the balance at December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, was $14 and $27, respectively.

We are subject to income taxes in the U.S. and nearly all states. In addition, the Company is subject to income taxes in Canada and the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. We are no longer subject to U.S federal income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2010 since the IRS has completed review of our income tax returns through 2009, or for any U.S. state income tax audit prior to 2002. With respect to Canada and Puerto Rico, we are no longer subject to income tax audits for years before 2008 and 2007, respectively.

Within the next twelve months, it is reasonably possible, that we could decrease our unrecognized tax benefits up to $40 as a result of the expiration of statute of limitations.

On or after May 1, 2018, Lamar Media may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, in cash at redemption prices specified in the Notes. In addition, if the Company or Lamar Media undergoes a change of control, Lamar Media may be required to make an offer to purchase each holder’s Notes at a price equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, up to but not including the repurchase date.

The Company used the net proceeds from the 5% Senior Subordinated Note offering to purchase all of the outstanding common stock of NextMedia Outdoor, Inc. for $145,000, redeem in full all of our 6 5/8% Senior Subordinated Notes outstanding and to repay $295,000 of the Term B loan outstanding under our senior credit facility.

2010 Senior Credit Facility

On February 9, 2012, Lamar Media entered into a restatement agreement with respect to its existing senior credit facility in order to fund a new $100,000 Term loan A facility and to make certain covenant changes to the senior credit facility, which was entered into on April 28, 2010, as amended on June 11, 2010, November 18, 2010 and February 9, 2012, for which JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. serves as administrative agent. The senior credit facility consists of a $250,000 revolving credit facility, a $270,000 term loan A-1 facility, a $30,000 term loan A-2 facility, a $100,000 term loan A-3 facility, a $575,000 term loan B facility and a $300,000 incremental facility, which may be increased by up to an additional $200,000 based upon our satisfaction of a senior debt ratio test (as described below), of less than or equal to 3.25 to 1. Lamar Media is the borrower under the senior credit facility, except with respect to the $30,000 term loan A-2 facility for which Lamar Media’s wholly owned subsidiary, Lamar Advertising of Puerto Rico, Inc. is the borrower. We may also from time to time designate additional wholly owned subsidiaries as subsidiary borrowers under the incremental loan facility that can borrow up to $110,000 of the incremental facility. Incremental loans may be in the form of additional term loan tranches or increases in the revolving credit facility. Our lenders have no obligation to make additional loans to us, or any designated subsidiary borrower, under the incremental facility, but may enter into such commitments in their sole discretion.

On December 14, 2012, Lamar Media repaid $295,000 of its Term B loan outstanding under its senior credit facility. Lamar Media recorded a non-cash loss of $3,904 related to this prepayment due to the write off of previously capitalized and unamortized debt issuance costs. As of December 31, 2012, $22,164 remains outstanding under the Term B loans.

The remaining quarterly amortizations of the Term facilities as of December 31, 2012 is as follows:

	Term A-1		Term A-2		Term A-3		Term B
March 31, 2013 — September 30, 2013	$	6,750	$	750	$	625	$	—

In addition to the amortizations of our Term facilities, Lamar Media may be required to make certain mandatory prepayments on loans outstanding under the senior credit facility that would be applied first to any outstanding term loans, commencing with the year ended December 31, 2010. These payments, if any, are determined annually and are calculated based on a percentage of Consolidated Excess Cash Flow (as defined in the senior credit facility) at the end of each fiscal year. The percentage of Consolidated Excess Cash Flow that must be applied to repay outstanding loans was set at 50% for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010. For fiscal years ending on or after December 31, 2011, this percentage is subject to a reduction to 0% if the total holdings debt ratio, as described above, is less than or equal to 5.00 to 1.00 as of the last day of such fiscal year. The Company will not be required to make a mandatory prepayment in respect of Consolidated Excess Cash Flow for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012 since there was a consolidated cash flow deficit, in accordance with the calculation as defined in the senior credit facility and the total holdings debt ratio was less than 5.0 to 1.0.

As of December 31, 2012, there was $0 revolving credit loans outstanding under the revolving facility. The revolving facility terminates April 28, 2015. Availability of the revolving facility is reduced by the amount of letters of credit outstanding. The Company had $7,689 letters of credit outstanding as of December 31, 2012 and $242,311 availability under its revolving facility. Revolving credit loans may be requested under the revolving credit facility at any time prior to maturity. The loans bear interest, at the Company’s option, at the LIBOR Rate or JPMorgan Chase Prime Rate plus applicable margins, such margins being set from time to time based on the Company’s ratio of debt to trailing twelve month EBITDA, as defined in the agreement.

The terms of the indenture relating to Lamar Advertising’s outstanding notes, Lamar Media’s senior credit facility and the indenture relating to Lamar Media’s outstanding notes restrict, among other things, the ability of Lamar Advertising and Lamar Media to:

• dispose of assets;

• incur or repay debt;

• create liens;

• make investments; and

• pay dividends.

Lamar Media’s ability to make distributions to Lamar Advertising is also restricted under the terms of these agreements. Under Lamar Media’s senior credit facility the Company must maintain specified financial ratios and levels including:

• fixed charges coverage ratio;

• senior debt ratio; and

• total holdings debt ratio.

Lamar Advertising and Lamar Media were in compliance with all of the terms of all of the indentures and the applicable senior credit agreement during the periods presented.

Stock Compensation Plans

Stock Compensation Plans

(14) Stock Compensation Plans

Equity Incentive Plan. Lamar’s 1996 Equity Incentive Plan has reserved 13 million shares of common stock for issuance to directors and employees, including options granted and common stock reserved for issuance under its performance-based incentive program. Options granted under the plan expire ten years from the grant date with vesting terms ranging from three to five years which primarily includes 1) options that vest in one-fifth increments beginning on the grant date and continuing on each of the first four anniversaries of the grant date and 2) options that cliff-vest on the fifth anniversary of the grant date. All grants are made at fair market value based on the closing price of our Class A common stock as reported on the NASDAQ Global Select Market on the date of grant.

We use a Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model to estimate the fair value of share-based awards. The Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model incorporates various highly subjective assumptions, including expected term and expected volatility. We have reviewed our historical pattern of option exercises and have determined that meaningful differences in option exercise activity existed among vesting schedules. Therefore, for all stock options granted after January 1, 2006, we have categorized these awards into two groups of vesting 1) 5-year cliff vest and 2) 4-year graded vest, for valuation purposes. We have determined there were no meaningful differences in employee activity under our ESPP due to the nature of the plan.

We estimate the expected term of options granted using an implied life derived from the results of a hypothetical mid-point settlement scenario, which incorporates our historical exercise, expiration and post-vesting employment termination patterns, while accommodating for partial life cycle effects. We believe these estimates will approximate future behavior.

We estimate the expected volatility of our Class A common stock at the grant date using a blend of 75% historical volatility of our Class A common stock and 25% implied volatility of publicly traded options with maturities greater than six months on our Class A common stock as of the option grant date. Our decision to use a blend of historical and implied volatility was based upon the volume of actively traded options on our common stock and our belief that historical volatility alone may not be completely representative of future stock price trends.

Our risk-free interest rate assumption is determined using the Federal Reserve nominal rates for U.S. Treasury zero-coupon bonds with maturities similar to those of the expected term of the award being valued. We assumed an expected dividend yield of zero since the Company has historically not paid dividends on Class A common stock, except for special dividends in 2007.

We estimate option forfeitures at the time of grant and periodically revise those estimates in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. We record stock-based compensation expense only for those awards expected to vest using an estimated forfeiture rate based on our historical forfeiture data.

The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions used:

Grant Year	Dividend Yield			Expected Volatility			Risk Free Interest Rate			Expected Lives
2012		0	%		52	%		2	%		5
2011		0	%		52	%		2	%		5
2010		0	%		54	%		2	%		5

Information regarding the 1996 Plan for the year ended December 31, 2012 is as follows:

	Shares			Weighted Average Exercise Price		Weighted Average Contractual Life
Outstanding, beginning of year		2,702,629		$	21.27
Granted		68,000			33.04
Exercised		(586,563	)		17.66
Canceled		(59,180	)		31.57
Outstanding, end of year		2,124,886		$	22.36		6.15
Exercisable at end of year		1,506,925		$	23.30		5.89

At December 31, 2012 there was $2,969 of unrecognized compensation cost related to stock options granted which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.17 years.

On July 2, 2009, we completed a tender offer for 250 eligible participants to exchange some or all of certain outstanding options (the “Eligible Options”) for new options to be issued under the Company’s 1996 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended. We have accepted for cancellation Eligible Options to purchase an aggregate of 2,630,474 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock, representing 86.2% of the total number of shares of Class A common stock underlying all Eligible Options. In exchange for the Eligible Options surrendered in the Offer, we issued new options to purchase up to an aggregate of 1,030,819 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock under the 1996 Plan. Each new option has an exercise price per share of $15.67, the closing price of the Company’s Class A common stock on the NASDAQ Global Select Market on July 2, 2009. Eligible Options not tendered for exchange remain outstanding according to their original terms and are subject to the 1996 Plan. An incremental cost of $1,923 will be recognized over the 5 year vesting term of the new options using the bifurcation method.

The exchange of Eligible Options has been accounted for as a modification. In calculating the incremental compensation cost of a modification, the fair value of the modified award was compared to the fair value of the original award measured immediately before its terms and conditions were modified. The Company elected to use a binomial lattice model solely to determine the incremental compensation cost associated with the underwater options because it more appropriately captures exercise and cancellation patterns needed in the valuation. There were no significant changes in assumptions utilized in the determination of the incremental compensation cost of the modification.

Shares available for future stock option and restricted share grants to employees and directors under existing plans were 2,240,929 at December 31, 2012. The aggregate intrinsic value of options outstanding as of December 31, 2012 was $35,380, and the aggregate intrinsic value of options exercisable was $23,827. Total intrinsic value of options exercised was $10,430 for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Stock Purchase Plan. In 2009 our board of directors adopted a new employee stock purchase plan, the 2009 Employee Stock Purchase Plan or 2009 ESPP, which was approved by our shareholders on May 28, 2009. The 2009 ESPP reserved 588,154 shares of Class A common stock for issuance to our employees, which included 88,154 shares of Class A common stock that had been available for issuance under our 2000 Employee Stock Purchase Plan or 2000 ESPP. The 2000 ESPP was terminated following the issuance of all shares that were subject to the offer that commenced under the 2000 ESPP on January 1, 2009 and ended June 30, 2009. The terms of the 2009 ESPP are substantially the same as the 2000 ESPP.

The number of shares of Class A common stock available under the 2009 ESPP was automatically increased by 77,928 shares on January 1, 2012 pursuant to the automatic increase provisions of the 2009 ESPP and further increased by 250,000 shares of Class A common stock pursuant to an amendment to the 2009 Plan adopted by our board of directors on February 22, 2012 and approved by our stockholders at the Company’s 2012 Annual Meeting of Stockholders on May 24, 2012.

The following is a summary of 2009 ESPP share activity for the year ended December 31, 2012:

	Shares
Available for future purchases, January 1, 2012		253,294
Additional shares reserved under 2009 ESPP		250,000
Purchases		(144,344	)
Available for future purchases, December 31, 2012		358,950

Performance-based compensation. Unrestricted shares of our Class A common stock may be awarded to key officers and employees under our 1996 Plan based on certain Company performance measures for fiscal 2012. The number of shares to be issued; if any, will be dependent on the level of achievement of these performance measures as determined by the Company’s Compensation Committee based on our 2012 results and were issued in the first quarter of 2013. The shares subject to these awards can range from a minimum of 0% to a maximum of 100% of the target number of shares depending on the level at which the goals are attained. Based on the Company’s performance measures achieved through December 31, 2012, the Company has accrued $7,970 as compensation expense related to these agreements.

Stockholders' Equity

(13) Stockholders’ Equity

On July 16, 1999, the Board of Directors designated 5,720 shares of the 1,000,000 shares of previously undesignated preferred stock, par value $.001, as Series AA preferred stock. The Class A preferred stock, par value $638, was exchanged for the new Series AA preferred stock and no shares of Class A preferred stock are currently outstanding. The new Series AA preferred stock and the class A preferred stock rank senior to the Class A common stock and Class B common stock with respect to dividends and upon liquidation. Holders of Series AA preferred stock and Class A preferred stock are entitled to receive, on a pari passu basis, dividends at the rate of $15.95 per share per quarter when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors. The Series AA preferred stock and the Class A preferred stock are also entitled to receive, on a pari passu basis, $638 plus a further amount equal to any dividend accrued and unpaid to the date of distribution before any payments are made or assets distributed to the Class A common stock or Class B stock upon voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company. The liquidation value of the outstanding Series AA preferred stock at December 31, 2012 was $3,649. The Series AA preferred stock and the Class A preferred stock are identical, except that the Series AA preferred stock is entitled to one vote per share and the Class A preferred stock is not entitled to vote.

All of the outstanding shares of common stock are fully paid and nonassessable. In the event of the liquidation or dissolution of the Company, following any required distribution to the holders of outstanding shares of preferred stock, the holders of common stock are entitled to share pro rata in any balance of the corporate assets available for distribution to them. The Company may pay dividends if, when and as declared by the Board of Directors from funds legally available therefore, subject to the restrictions set forth in the Company’s existing indentures and the senior credit facility. Subject to the preferential rights of the holders of any class of preferred stock, holders of shares of common stock are entitled to receive such dividends as may be declared by the Company’s Board of directors out of funds legally available for such purpose. No dividend may be declared or paid in cash or property on any share of either class of common stock unless simultaneously the same dividend is declared or paid on each share of the other class of common stock, provided that, in the event of stock dividends, holders of a specific class of common stock shall be entitled to receive only additional shares of such class.

The rights of the Class A and Class B common stock are equal in all respects, except holders of Class B common stock have ten votes per share on all matters in which the holders of common stock are entitled to vote and holders of Class A common stock have one vote per share on such matters. The Class B common stock will convert automatically into Class A common stock upon the sale or transfer to persons other than permitted transferees (as defined in the Company’s certificate of incorporation, as amended).
