OTHER EVENTS AND REGULATION FD DISCLOSURE On April 5, 2002, Regent Communications, Inc. announced its intention to offer approximately 8,000,000 shares of its common stock. A copy of this press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1. On April 8, 2002, Regent Communications, Inc. filed an amendment to its registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-84548) in connection with this offering and to register 215,828 shares of its common stock which may be sold in the offering by the selling stockholders named in the registration statement. This registration statement has not yet become effective. Subsequently, on April 10, 2002, those selling stockholders notified Regent Communications, Inc. that they no longer intended to sell such shares in this offering. On April 10, 2002, Regent Communications, Inc. announced its preliminary results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2002. Regent expects reported first quarter 2002 revenue in the $12.9 - $13.0 million range and broadcast cash flow in the $2.9 - $3.0 million range. The Company had previously expected to report first quarter 2002 revenue in the $12.8 - $13.1 million range and broadcast cash flow in the $2.5 - $2.7 million range. On a same station basis, Regent expects first quarter 2002 revenue to be down approximately 2%. This compares to previous guidance of same station revenue to be flat to down 5% in the first quarter of 2002. Regent expects reported earnings per share to be approximately $0.00 per share. Excluding the gain on sale of WGNA-AM in Albany, Regent expects a loss per share of $0.01, compared to previous guidance of a loss of $0.02 per share.
