Registration Statement on Form S-4

Filed July 16, 2014

File No. 333-197460

Dear Ms. Barros:

This letter is submitted on behalf of Lamar Media Corp. (“Lamar Media” or the “Company”) in response to comments from the staff of the Division of Corporation Finance (the “Staff”) of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) with respect to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-4 (File No. 333-197460) filed with the Commission on July 16, 2014 (the “Registration Statement”). Such comments are set forth in the letter dated August 4, 2014 to Keith Istre, Chief Financial Officer of Lamar Media and incorporate by reference comments in the letter dated July 25, 2014 (the “Comment Letter”), which set forth the Staff’s comments on the Form S-4 (File No. 333-197084) filed by Lamar Advertising REIT Company and the annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 (File No. 000-30242) of Lamar Advertising Company (“Lamar”). The Company is concurrently filing Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement (“Amendment No. 1”), which includes changes to reflect responses to the Staff’s comments. Lamar Media will separately deliver to you a copy of Amendment No. 1, marked to show changes from the Registration Statement.

For reference purposes, the Staff’s numbered comments have been reproduced in italics herein with responses immediately following each comment. Please note that the Company has not included responses to comments 1, 3, 4, 9, 10, 11 and 18 included in the Comment Letter below as they do not apply to the Registration Statement. Unless otherwise indicated, page references in the descriptions of the Staff’s comments refer to the Registration Statement, and page references in the responses refer to Amendment No. 1.

Form S-4 for Lamar Advertising REIT Company

General

1. Please tell us why you have not registered the Series AA preferred stock to be issued in the merger.

RESPONSE: N/A

2. Please provide Schedule III in compliance with Rule 5-04 of Regulation S-X or tell us why Schedule III is not required. Please confirm, if appropriate, that management will include Schedule III in future periodic reporting.

RESPONSE:

In response to the Staff’s comment, we note that Lamar intends to elect REIT status effective for the year beginning January 1, 2014 and, although Lamar undertook an internal corporate restructuring during the course of 2013 and the early part of 2014 so that it would be in compliance with certain REIT qualification requirements for the 2014 taxable year, it did not elect REIT status for the year ended December 31, 2013. As a result, Lamar did not include Schedule III with its Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, as it did not believe it was applicable or required for the year ended December 31, 2013. Since Lamar intends to elect REIT status for the year beginning January 1, 2014, Lamar plans to include a Schedule III with its Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2014 and future periods as applicable.

7. With respect to the 75,900 outdoor sites that you lease, please revise your disclosure to clarify your rights and obligations, including whether your lease agreements solely cover your ability to use the land to post signage and whether you lease the entire parcel of land such that you are responsible for maintaining the grounds of the outdoor sites. Please also explain what you mean by “active” outdoor sites. Please include similar disclosure in future applicable Exchange Act periodic reports.

RESPONSE:

In response to the Staff’s comment, the Company has revised the disclosure on page 62 to clarify the general rights and obligations of the Company under its leases. The reference to “active” sites has been removed; the sites noted reflect all current leased premises. The Company confirms that it plans to include similar disclosure, as applicable, in future Exchange Act reports.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, page 78

12. Please tell us whether management considers funds from operations a key performance indicator. In this regard, we note Lamar Advertising’s discussion of this metric in its press release dated May 7, 2014. We may have further comments.

RESPONSE:

The Company’s management has introduced funds from operations (FFO) and adjusted funds from operations (AFFO) for the for the six month periods ending June 30, 2014 and 2013 due to Lamar Advertising’s preparation for potential election of REIT status for the taxable year beginning January 1, 2014 and currently considers FFO and AFFO key performance indicators. The Company has revised Management’s Discussion and Analysis on pages 35-39 to include these measures as well as the required disclosure in accordance with Item 10(e) of Regulation S-K.

13. We refer to your non-GAAP measure acquisition-adjusted revenue. Please clarify that in calculating such measure you added to the prior period revenue derived from assets acquired in a subsequent period even though you did not own those assets during that prior period. Please also explain further how this measure is used to assess your organic growth. Please tell us what consideration you gave to also adjusting for divested billboards and nonrenewals of logo and transit contracts. Please include similar disclosure in future applicable Exchange Act periodic reports.

RESPONSE:

In response to the Staff’s comment, the Company has revised the disclosure on pages 35, 36, 38, 40 and 42 to clarify the manner in which acquisition adjusted revenue is calculated. The Company adds revenue derived from acquired assets during prior periods in which those assets were not owned by the Company so that the increase in revenue derived from the acquired assets in the current period is compared to the

Securities and Exchange Commission

Page 6

baseline of revenue derived by those assets in the prior period. This presentation is intended to provide investors with a period over period comparison that reflects changes in revenue over the prior period results of those assets, reflecting organic growth (if any) in those assets during the period in which the assets were owned and managed by the Company. Similarly, the Company eliminates revenue from the prior period that was derived from assets that have been divested since that period and, therefore, would not be reflected in the current period. The Company confirms that it will include similar disclosure, as applicable, in future Exchange Act periodic reports.

14. Please include disclosure that quantifies the amount and percentage of your revenue from your different display types, i.e. billboards, logo signs and transit advertising displays, and, if material, bulletins, posters and digital billboards. Please also disclose the amount and percentage of your revenue derived from your non-REIT assets and operations, i.e. derived from your taxable REIT subsidiaries. Please include similar disclosure in future applicable Exchange Act periodic reports.

RESPONSE:

In response to the Staff’s comment, the Company has included additional disclosure on pages 58-59. The Company confirms that it plans to include similar disclosure, as applicable, in future Exchange Act reports.

15. We note your disclosure on page 78 that your revenue growth is based upon many factors, including occupancy of advertising displays and advertising rates. Please revise to disclose your portfolio occupancy, average effective rent rates per foot/unit and geographic diversification for properties that you own and lease by type, i.e. display type. Please also disclose the relative impact of same site occupancy and rent rates on period to period changes. Please include similar disclosure in future applicable Exchange Act periodic reports.

RESPONSE:

In response to the Staff’s comment, the Company has revised the disclosure on pages 37, 39 and 41 to include the impact of rate and occupancy on period over period changes if material. The Company confirms that it plans to include similar disclosure, as applicable, in future Exchange Act reports. The Company respectfully advises the Staff that the Company’s management does not evaluate and measure performance utilizing average effective rent rates per foot/unit. The Company’s portfolio is highly diverse, both by geographic region and display type, resulting in significant differences in average rent rate per foot. As a result, average effective rent rate is not a meaningful performance indicator for the Company.

16. We note your disclosure on page 17 of Lamar Advertising Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013 that your lease agreements with the property owners of the 75,900 active outdoor sites are for varying terms ranging from month-to-month to a term of over ten years. Please tell us if a material portion of your leases are scheduled to expire in the future and how your lease expirations match up to your advertising contracts by display type. Please also tell what consideration you gave to including disclosure on expirations, referring to Item 15(f) of Form S-11 as a guide. We may have further comments.

RESPONSE:

In response to the Staff’s comment, the Company has included disclosure on pages 62 and 63 regarding lease and contract expirations. There is no material correlation between lease expirations and contract expirations, as contract terms are generally more variable and of shorter duration than the underlying leases. The Company confirms that it plans to include similar disclosure, as applicable, in future Exchange Act reports.

Liquidity and Capital Resources, page 84

Uses of Cash, page 87

17. Please tell us if you capitalized personnel costs and/or interest costs within your capital expenditures line items. To the extent material, please separately quantify and disclose such costs capitalized for all periods presented and discuss fluctuation within your MD&A. In addition, please confirm that you will provide similar information in future periodic reports.

RESPONSE:

The Company does not capitalize personnel costs related to sales commissions or interest costs within its capital expenditure line items. Generally the Company outsources the labor necessary for capitalized improvements to its advertising structures. In its larger markets, the Company may perform these services in house resulting in capitalized direct labor in immaterial amounts.
