NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (In thousands, except per share data) NOTE 1 - Basis of Presentation: The accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2003, the consolidated statements of operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 and the consolidated statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 are unaudited, but in the opinion of management include all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and the results of operations for the periods presented. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. NOTE 2 - Reclassification: Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation. NOTE 3 - Earnings Per Share: Net income per share is computed in accordance with SFAS No. 128. Basic earnings per share excludes all dilution and is calculated using the weighted average number of shares outstanding in the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that would occur if all financial instruments which may be exchanged for equity securities were exercised or converted to Common Stock. The Company has issued options and warrants which may have a dilutive effect on reported earnings if they were exercised or converted to Common Stock. The following numbers of shares related to options and warrants were added to the basic weighted average shares outstanding to arrive at the diluted weighted average shares outstanding for each period: Three Months Ended Six Months Ended June 30, June 30, ------------------ ---------------- 2003 2002 2003 2002 ---- ---- ---- ---- Options 2,482 3,121 2,521 3,201 Warrants - 220 - 286 NOTE 4 - Debt: At June 30, 2003 the Company had outstanding borrowings of $200,000 pursuant to its outstanding notes and $65,000 under its bank revolving credit facility. In addition, the Company had available borrowings of $155,000 under its bank revolving credit facility. The estimated fair value of the Company's interest rate swaps at June 30, 2003 was $5,897. 6 NOTE 5 - Stock Options The Company applies APB 25 and related interpretations in accounting for its stock option plans. Accordingly, no compensation expense has been recognized for its plans. For the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, had compensation cost been determined in accordance with the methodology prescribed by SFAS 123, the Company's net income and earnings per share would have been reduced by approximately $2,118 and $2,023 ($.02 per basic and diluted share) for the three month periods, respectively and $4,155 and $4,041 ($.04 per basic share and $.03 per diluted share) for the six month periods, respectively.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (In thousands, except per share amounts) Management's discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and related Notes and the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002. Discussions included herein related to "revenue" or "net revenues" corresponds to the financial statement caption of Net Revenues on the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations. The principal components of Operating costs are personnel costs (exclusive of corporate personnel), affiliate compensation, broadcast rights fees, program production and distribution costs, sales related expenses (including bad debt expenses, commissions, and promotional and advertising expenses), expenses related to the Company's representation agreement with Infinity and news expenses. Corporate general and administrative expenses are primarily comprised of costs associated with the Infinity Management Agreement, personnel costs and other administrative expenses. Results of Operations Three Months Ended June 30, 2003 Compared With Three Months Ended June 30, 2002 ------------------------------------- Westwood One derives substantially all of its revenue from the sale of advertising time to advertisers. Net revenue decreased $8,137, or 6%, to $132,675 in the second quarter of 2003 from $140,812 in the comparable prior year quarter. The decrease in net revenue was due principally to a softening of advertiser sales after the commencement of the war with Iraq and the continuing weak economic climate partially offset by additional revenues associated with new program offerings. Operating costs were $86,504 in the second quarter of 2003 compared with $86,146 in the second quarter of 2002. Increases in expenses associated with new program offerings, news and insurance were nearly offset by reductions in employee related expenses. Depreciation and amortization was $2,860 in the second quarter of 2003 compared with $2,866 in the second quarter of 2002. Corporate general and administrative expenses decreased $417, or 20%, to $1,647 in the second quarter of 2003 from $2,064 in the comparable 2002 quarter. The decrease is principally attributable to lower compensation expense partially offset by higher expenses associated with new corporate governance regulations. Operating income decreased $8,072, or 16%, to $41,664 in the second quarter of 2003 from $49,736 in the second quarter of 2002. The decrease is attributable to lower advertising revenues. Interest expense increased 49% to $2,496 in the second quarter of 2003 from $1,677 in 2002. The increase was attributable to higher debt outstanding in the second quarter of 2003 and higher average interest rates as a result of the Company's issuance of $200 million in a combination of 7 and 10-year fixed rate Senior Unsecured Notes in the fourth quarter of 2002. Income tax expense in the second quarter of 2003 was $14,848 compared with $17,626 in the second quarter of 2002. The Company's effective income tax rate was approximately 37.5% in 2003 compared with 36.7% in 2002. The increase in effective income tax rate was principally attributable to higher state taxes 8 resulting from recently enacted tax law changes in the states in which we operate. Net income in the second quarter of 2003 was $24,336 ($.24 per basic share and $.23 per diluted share) compared with $30,474 ($.29 per basic share and $.28 per diluted share) in the second quarter of 2002. Weighted average shares outstanding used to compute basic and diluted earnings per share decreased to 101,771 and 104,253, respectively, in the second quarter of 2003 compared with 106,751 and 110,092 in the second quarter of 2002. The decrease is principally attributable to the Company's stock repurchase program. Six Months Ended June 30, 2003 Compared With Six Months Ended June 30, 2002 ----------------------------------- Net revenue for the first half of 2003 decreased 3% to $258,470 from $267,108 in the first half of 2002. The decrease in net revenue was attributable to the non-recurrence of approximately $6,000 of revenue associated with the Company's exclusive radio broadcast of the Winter Olympics in 2002, a softening of advertiser sales prior to and immediately after the commencement of the war with Iraq, and a weak economic climate, partially offset by revenue attributable to new programming. Operating costs were $178,556 in the first half of 2003 compared with $178,547 in the first half of 2002. Increases in expenses associated with new program offerings, insurance and news costs were offset by the non-recurrence of expenses attributable to the Company's broadcast of the Winter Olympics and lower employee related expenses. Depreciation and amortization was $5,740 in the first half of 2003 as compared with $5,701 in the first half of 2002. Operating income decreased $8,176, or 10%, to $70,883 in the first half of 2003 from $79,059 in the comparable 2002 period. The decrease was attributable to lower revenues in the Company's second quarter of 2003. Interest expense increased 44% to $4,947 in the first half of 2003 from $3,435 in the comparable 2002 period. The increase results principally from higher debt levels and higher average interest rates. Net income decreased 14% to $41,250 ($.40 per basic share and $.39 per diluted share) in the first half of 2003 from $47,917 ($.45 per basic share and $.43 per diluted share) in the comparable 2002 period. Weighted average shares outstanding used to compute basic and diluted earnings per share decreased to 102,417 and 104,938, respectively, in the first six months of 2003 compared with 106,690 and 110,177 in the comparable 2002 period. The decrease is principally attributable to the Company's stock repurchase program. 9 Liquidity and Capital Resources The business is financed through cash flows from operations and the issuance of debt and equity. The Company continually projects anticipated cash requirements, which include share repurchases, acquisitions, capital expenditures, and principal and interest payments on its outstanding indebtedness, as well as cash flows generated from operating activity available to meet these needs. Any net cash funding requirements are financed with short-term borrowings and long-term debt. At June 30, 2003, the Company's cash and cash equivalents were $6,714, a decrease of $657 from the December 31, 2002 balance. For the six months ended June 30, 2003 versus the comparable prior year period, net cash from operating activities decreased $21,093. The reduction is primarily attributable to an increase in cash taxes paid resulting from lower tax benefits from the exercise of stock options and warrants. At June 30, 2003, the Company had available borrowings of $155,000 on its revolving credit facility. Pursuant to the terms of the facility, the amount of available borrowings declines by $7,500 at the end of each quarter in 2003 and $10,000 per quarter in 2004 until its termination date of September 30, 2004. During 2003, the Company has used its available cash and bank borrowings to repurchase its Common Stock. For the six months ended June 30, 2003, the Company repurchased approximately 3,179 shares of Common Stock at a cost of $107,102. In the month of July, the Company repurchased an additional 635 shares of Common Stock at a cost of approximately $19,935. The Company's business does not require, and is not expected to require, significant cash outlays for capital expenditures. The Company believes that its cash, other liquid assets, operating cash flows and available bank borrowings, taken together, provide adequate resources to fund ongoing operating requirements. 10 Item 3. Qualitative and Quantitative Disclosures about Market Risk In the normal course of business, the Company employs established policies and procedures to manage its exposure to changes in interest rates using financial instruments. The Company uses derivative financial instruments (fixed-to-floating interest rate swap agreements) for the purpose of hedging specific exposures and holds all derivatives for purposes other than trading. All derivative financial instruments held reduce the risk of the underlying hedged item and are designated at inception as hedges with respect to the underlying hedged item. Hedges of fair value exposure are entered into in order to hedge the fair value of a recognized asset, liability, or a firm commitment. In order to achieve a desired proportion of variable and fixed rate debt, in December 2002, the Company entered into a seven year interest rate swap agreement covering $25 million notional value of its outstanding borrowing to effectively float the interest rate at three-month LIBOR plus 74 basis points and two ten year interest rate swap agreements covering $75 million notional value of its outstanding borrowing to effectively float the interest rate at three-month LIBOR plus 80 basis points. These swap transactions allow the Company to benefit from short-term declines in interest rates. The instruments meet all of the criteria of a fair-value hedge. The Company has the appropriate documentation, including the risk management objective and strategy for undertaking the hedge, identification of the hedging instrument, the hedged item, the nature of the risk being hedged, and how the hedging instrument's effectiveness offsets the exposure to changes in the hedged item's fair value or variability in cash flows attributable to the hedged risk. With respect to the borrowings pursuant to the Company's revolving credit facility, the interest rate on the borrowings is based on the prime rate plus an applicable margin of up to .25%, or LIBOR plus an applicable margin of up to 1.25%, as chosen by the Company. Historically, the Company has typically chosen the LIBOR option with a three month maturity. Every .25% change in interest rates has the effect of increasing or decreasing our annual interest expense by $5,000 for every $2 million of outstanding debt. The Company continually monitors its positions with, and the credit quality of, the financial institutions that are counterparties to its financial instruments, and does not anticipate nonperformance by the counterparties. The Company's receivables do not represent a significant concentration of credit risk due to the wide variety of customers and markets in which the Company operates. Item 4. Controls and Procedures The Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) and internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this report, and have concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective for gathering, analyzing and disclosing the information we are required to disclose in our reports filed under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934. There have been no significant changes in our internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the evaluation date. 11 PART II OTHER INFORMATION Items 1 through 3 These items are not applicable.
