THE WASHINGTON POST COMPANY

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

1. ORGANIZATION, BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

The Washington Post Company, Inc. (the Company) is a diversified education and media company. The Company’s Kaplan subsidiary provides a wide variety of educational services, both domestically and outside the United States. The Company’s media operations consist of the ownership and operation of cable television systems, newspaper publishing (principally The Washington Post), and television broadcasting (through the ownership and operation of six television broadcast stations).

Financial Periods – The Company and its subsidiaries report on a calendar-quarter basis, with the exception of most of the newspaper publishing operations, which report on a thirteen week quarter ending on the Sunday nearest the calendar quarter-end.

Basis of Presentation – The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with: (i) generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information; (ii) the instructions to Form 10-Q; and (iii) the guidance of Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, for financial statements required to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). They include the assets, liabilities, results of operations and cash flows of the Company, including its domestic and foreign subsidiaries that are more than 50% owned or otherwise controlled by the Company. As permitted under such rules, certain notes and other financial information normally required by GAAP have been condensed or omitted. Management believes the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and cash flows as of and for the periods presented herein. The Company’s results of operations for the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 may not be indicative of the Company’s future results. These condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

The year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP.

Certain amounts in previously issued financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation, which includes the reclassification of the results of operations of certain businesses as discontinued operations for all periods presented.

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements – The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported herein. Management bases its estimates and assumptions on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making estimates, actual results reported in future periods may be affected by changes in those estimates.

Recently Adopted and Issued Accounting Pronouncements – In February 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued final guidance on the presentation of reclassifications out of other comprehensive income to net income. The amendment requires an entity to provide information about the amounts reclassified out of other comprehensive income by component. In addition, an entity is required to present, either on the face of the income statement or in a footnote, significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by the respective line items of net income, only if the amount reclassified is required by GAAP to be reclassified to net income in its entirety in the same reporting period. For other amounts that are not required under GAAP to be reclassified in their entirety to net income, an entity is required to cross-reference to other disclosures required under GAAP that provide detail about those amounts. This amendment is effective for interim and fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2012. The adoption of the amendment in the first quarter of 2013 is reflected in the Company's Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

2. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

In March 2013, the Company completed the sale of The Herald, a daily and Sunday newspaper headquartered in Everett, WA. Under the terms of the agreement, the purchaser received most of the assets and liabilities; however, certain land and buildings and other assets and liabilities were retained by the Company. The results of operations of The Herald for the first quarter of 2013 and 2012, are included in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations as Income (Loss) from Discontinued Operations, Net of Tax. All corresponding prior period operating results presented in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the accompanying notes have been reclassified to reflect the discontinued operations presented. The Company did not reclassify its Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets or Statements of Cash Flows to reflect the discontinued operations.

In August 2012, the Company completed the sale of Kidum and recorded a pre-tax gain of $3.6 million and an after-tax gain of $10.2 million related to this sale in the third quarter of 2012. On July 31, 2012, the Company disposed of its interest in Avenue100 Media Solutions, Inc. and recorded a pre-tax loss of $5.7 million related to the disposition. An income tax benefit of $44.5 million was also recorded in the third quarter of 2012 as the Company determined that Avenue100 had no value. The income tax benefit was due to the Company’s tax basis in the stock of Avenue100 exceeding its net book value, as a result of goodwill and other intangible asset impairment charges recorded in 2008, 2010 and 2011 for which no tax benefit was previously recorded. In April 2012, the Company completed the sale of Kaplan EduNeering. Under the terms of the agreement, the purchaser acquired the stock of EduNeering and received substantially all the assets and liabilities. In the second quarter of 2012, the Company recorded an after-tax gain of $18.5 million related to this sale. In February 2012, Kaplan completed the stock sale of Kaplan Learning Technologies (KLT) and recorded an after-tax loss on the sale of $1.9 million. The Company recorded $23.2 million of income tax benefits in the first quarter of 2012 in connection with the sale of its stock in EduNeering and KLT related to the excess of the outside stock tax basis over the net book value of the net assets disposed. The results of operations of Kidum, Avenue100, EduNeering, and KLT, for the first quarter of 2012 are included in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations as Income (Loss) from Discontinued Operations, Net of Tax.

The summarized (loss) income from discontinued operations, net of tax, is presented below:

As of March 31, 2013, the Company has a $3.7 million unrealized loss on its investment in Strayer Education, Inc., a publicly traded company. At March 31, 2013, the investment has been in an unrealized loss position for under three months. The Company evaluated this investment for other-than-temporary impairment based on various factors, including the duration and severity of the unrealized loss, the reason for the decline in value and the potential recovery period, and the ability and intent to hold the investment and concluded that the unrealized loss is not other-than-temporary as of March 31, 2013. If any impairment is considered other-than-temporary, the investment will be written down to its fair market value with a corresponding charge to the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

7. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Fair value measurements are determined based on the assumptions that a market participant would use in pricing an asset or liability based on a three-tiered hierarchy that draws a distinction between market participant assumptions based on (i) observable inputs, such as quoted prices in active markets (Level 1); (ii) inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are observable either directly or indirectly (Level 2); and (iii) unobservable inputs that require the Company to use present value and other valuation techniques in the determination of fair value (Level 3). Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measure. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurements requires judgment and may affect the valuation of the assets and liabilities being measured and their placement within the fair value hierarchy.

The Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis were as follows:

____________

(1) The Company’s money market investments are included in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash.

(2) The Company’s investments in marketable equity securities are classified as available-for-sale.

(3) Includes U.S. Government Securities, corporate bonds, mutual funds and time deposits (with original maturities greater than 90 days, but less than one year).

(4) Includes The Washington Post Company Deferred Compensation Plan and supplemental savings plan benefits under The Washington Post Company Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan, which are included in accrued compensation and related benefits.

(5) See Note 6 for carrying amount of these notes and borrowing.

(6) Included in Other liabilities. The Company utilized a market approach model using the notional amount of the interest rate swap multiplied by the observable inputs of time to maturity and market interest rates.

For assets that are measured using quoted prices in active markets, the total fair value is the published market price per unit multiplied by the number of units held without consideration of transaction costs. Assets and liabilities that are measured using significant other observable inputs are primarily valued by reference to quoted prices of similar assets or liabilities in active markets, adjusted for any terms specific to that asset or liability.

8. EARNINGS PER SHARE

The Company’s earnings per share from continuing operations (basic and diluted) are presented below:

			Three Months Ended
			March 31,

Income Per Share from Continuing Operations Attributable to The Washington Post Company
	Common Stockholders:
		Basic	$	0.82	$	1.72
		Diluted	$	0.82	$	1.72

For the first quarter of 2013 and 2012, the basic earnings per share computed under the two-class method is lower than the diluted earnings per share computed under the if-converted method for participating securities, resulting in the presentation of the lower amount in diluted earnings per share. The first quarter of 2013 and 2012 diluted earnings per share amounts exclude the effects of 85,861 and 115,294 stock options outstanding, respectively, as their inclusion would be antidilutive. The first quarter of 2013 and 2012 diluted earnings per share amounts also exclude the effects of 52,200 and 7,500 restricted stock awards, respectively, as their inclusion would have been antidilutive.

In the first quarter of 2012, the Company declared regular dividends totaling $4.90 per share. In December 2012, the Company declared and paid an accelerated cash dividend totaling $9.80 per share, in lieu of regular quarterly dividends that the Company otherwise would have declared and paid in calendar year 2013.

9. PENSION AND POSTRETIREMENT PLANS

Total Cost	$	18,648	$	3,214	$	2,177	$	1,899

The Company announced a Voluntary Retirement Incentive Program in February 2013, which was offered to certain employees of the Washington Post newspaper. The early retirement program expense is estimated at $20.4 million. Of this amount, $12.0 million was recorded in the first quarter of 2013 and the remainder will be recorded in the second quarter of 2013. In addition, the Washington Post newspaper recorded $2.3 million in special separation benefits for a group of employees. The early retirement program expense and special separation benefits for these programs will be funded from the assets of the Company’s pension plan.

In the first quarter of 2012, the Company offered a Voluntary Retirement Incentive Program to certain employees of Post-Newsweek Media and recorded early retirement program expense of $1.0 million. The early retirement program expense for these programs is funded from the assets of the Company’s pension plan.

Defined Benefit Plan Assets . The Company’s defined benefit pension obligations are funded by a portfolio made up of a relatively small number of stocks and high-quality fixed-income securities that are held by a third-party trustee. The assets of the Company’s pension plan were allocated as follows:

	As of
	March 31,			December 31,
	2013			2012
U.S. equities		64	%		64	%
U.S. fixed income		11	%		13	%
International equities		25	%		23	%
		100	%		100	%

Essentially all of the assets are actively managed by two investment companies. The goal of the investment managers is to produce moderate long-term growth in the value of these assets, while protecting them against large decreases in value. Both of these managers may invest in a combination of equity and fixed-income securities and cash. The managers are not permitted to invest in securities of the Company or in alternative investments. The investment managers cannot invest more than 20% of the assets at the time of purchase in the stock of Berkshire Hathaway or more than 10% of the assets in the securities of any other single issuer, except for obligations of the U.S. Government, without receiving prior approval by the Plan administrator. As of March 31, 2013, the managers can invest no more than 24% of the assets in international stocks at the time the investment is made, and no less than 10% of the assets could be invested in fixed-income securities. None of the assets is managed internally by the Company.

In determining the expected rate of return on plan assets, the Company considers the relative weighting of plan assets, the historical performance of total plan assets and individual asset classes and economic and other indicators of future performance. In addition, the Company may consult with and consider the input of financial and other professionals in developing appropriate return benchmarks.

The Company evaluated its defined benefit pension plan asset portfolio for the existence of significant concentrations (defined as greater than 10% of plan assets) of credit risk as of March 31, 2013. Types of concentrations that were evaluated include, but are not limited to, investment concentrations in a single entity, type of industry, foreign country and individual fund. At March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the pension plan held common stock in one investment that exceeded 10% of total plan assets. This investment was valued at $280.0 million and $223.1 million at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, or approximately 12% and 11%, respectively, of total plan assets. Assets also included $209.7 million and $179.9 million of Berkshire Hathaway common stock at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. At March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the pension plan held investments in one foreign country that exceeded 10% of total plan assets. These investments were valued at $298.2 million and $240.4 million at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, or approximately 13% and 12%, respectively, of total plan assets.

12. CONTINGENCIES

Litigation and Legal Matters. The Company and its subsidiaries are involved in various legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of its business. Although the outcomes of the legal claims and proceedings against the Company cannot be predicted with certainty, based on currently available information, management believes that there are no existing claims or proceedings that are likely to have a material effect on the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Also, based on currently available information, management is of the opinion that the exposure to future material losses from existing legal proceedings is not reasonably possible, or that future material losses in excess of the amounts accrued are not reasonably possible.

A purported class-action complaint was filed against the Company, Donald E. Graham and Hal S. Jones on October 28, 2010, in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, by the Plumbers Local #200 Pension Fund. The complaint alleged that the Company and certain of its officers made materially false and misleading statements, or failed to disclose material facts relating to KHE, in violation of the U.S. Federal securities laws. The complaint sought damages, attorneys’ fees, costs and equitable/injunctive relief. The Company moved to dismiss the complaint, and on December 23, 2011, the court granted the Company’s motion and dismissed the case with prejudice. On January 25, 2012, the Plaintiff filed a motion seeking leave to amend or alter that final judgment, which the court granted in part on March 13, 2012 by allowing the Plaintiff to file an amended complaint. On May 11, 2012, the Company moved to dismiss the amended complaint. On March 19, 2013, the court granted the Company’s motion and dismissed the case.

DOE Program Reviews. The U.S. Department of Education (DOE) undertakes program reviews at Title IV participating institutions. Currently, there are four pending program reviews, including Kaplan University. In addition, the Company is awaiting the DOE’s final report on the program review at KHE’s Broomall, PA, location. In May 2012, the DOE issued a preliminary report on its 2009 onsite program review at Kaplan University containing several findings that required Kaplan University to conduct additional, detailed file reviews and submit additional data. In January 2013, Kaplan submitted a response to the DOE’s data request and is awaiting a final report on this review. The Company does not expect the final program review report to have a material impact on KHE; however, the results of this and the other open reviews and their impact on Kaplan’s operations are uncertain.

The 90/10 Rule . Under regulations referred to as the 90/10 rule, a KHE OPEID unit would lose its eligibility to participate in Title IV programs for a period of at least two fiscal years if it derives more than 90% of its receipts from Title IV programs, as calculated on a cash basis in accordance with the Higher Education Act and applicable DOE regulations, in each of two consecutive fiscal years, commencing with the unit’s first fiscal year that ends after August 14, 2008. Any

OPEID unit with Title IV receipts exceeding 90% for a single fiscal year ending after August 14, 2008, will be placed on provisional certification and may be subject to other enforcement measures. KHE is taking various measures to reduce the percentage of its receipts attributable to Title IV funds, including modifying student payment options; emphasizing direct-pay and employer-paid education programs; encouraging students to carefully evaluate the amount of their Title IV borrowing; eliminating some programs; cash-matching; and developing and offering additional non-Title IV-eligible certificate preparation, professional development and continuing education programs. Some of the other programs may currently be offered by other Kaplan businesses. Absent the adoption of the changes mentioned above, and if current trends continue, management estimates that in 2013, at least 17 of the KHE Campuses’ OPEID units, representing approximately 19% of KHE’s 2012 revenues, could have a 90/10 ratio over 90% . As noted above, Kaplan is taking steps to address compliance with the 90/10 rule; however, there can be no guarantee that these measures will be adequate to prevent the 90/10 rule calculations at some or all of the schools from exceeding 90% in the future.

13. BUSINESS SEGMENTS

The Company has seven reportable segments: Kaplan Higher Education, Kaplan Test Preparation, Kaplan International, cable television, newspaper publishing, and television broadcasting and other businesses.

Education. Kaplan’s Colloquy business moved from Kaplan International to Kaplan Corporate effective January 1, 2013. Segment operating results of the education division have been restated to reflect this change.

Newspaper Publishing. In March 2013, the Company completed the sale of The Herald, a daily and Sunday newspaper headquartered in Everett, WA. As a result, The Herald results are included in discontinued operations, net of tax, for all periods presented. The newspaper publishing segment operating results have been restated to reflect this change.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition

This analysis should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto.

Results of Operations

The Company reported net income attributable to common shares of $4.7 million ($0.64 per share) for the first quarter ended March 31, 2013, compared to $31.0 million ($4.07 per share) for the first quarter of last year. Net income includes $1.4 million in losses ($0.18 per share) and $17.6 million in income ($2.35 per share) from discontinued operations for the first quarter of 2013 and 2012, respectively. Income from continuing operations attributable to common shares was $6.1 million ($0.82 per share) for the first quarter of 2013, compared to $13.5 million ($1.72 per share) for the first quarter of 2012. As a result of the Company’s share repurchases, there were 5% fewer diluted average shares outstanding in the first quarter of 2013.

Items included in the Company’s income from continuing operations for the first quarter of 2013:

§ $25.3 million in early retirement, severance and restructuring charges at the newspaper publishing and education divisions (after-tax impact of $16.2 million, or $2.23 per share); and

§ $4.6 million in non-operating unrealized foreign currency losses (after-tax impact of $3.0 million, or $0.41 per share).

Items included in the Company’s income from continuing operations for the first quarter of 2012:

§ $1.9 million in severance and early retirement charges at the newspaper publishing division (after-tax impact of $1.2 million, or $0.16 per share);

§ a $5.8 million gain on the sale of a cost method investment (after-tax impact of $3.7 million, or $0.48 per share); and

§ $2.7 million in non-operating unrealized foreign currency gains (after-tax impact of $1.7 million, or $0.22 per share).

Revenue for the first quarter of 2013 was $959.1 million, up slightly compared to $955.5 million in the first quarter of 2012. The Company reported operating income of $23.1 million in the first quarter of 2013, compared to operating income of $21.3 million in the first quarter of 2012. Revenues increased at the television broadcasting and cable television divisions, offset by declines at the education and newspaper publishing divisions. Operating results improved at the education, television broadcasting and cable television divisions, offset by a decline at the newspaper publishing division.

Division Results

Education

Education division revenue totaled $527.8 million for the first quarter of 2013, a 3% decline from revenue of $546.7 million for the first quarter of 2012. Kaplan reported a first quarter 2013 operating loss of $4.1 million, compared to an $11.9 million operating loss in the first quarter of 2012.

In response to student demand levels, Kaplan has formulated and implemented restructuring plans at its various businesses, with the objective of establishing lower cost levels in future periods. Across all businesses, restructuring costs totaled $9.5 million in the first quarter of 2013. Kaplan currently expects to incur approximately $15 million in additional restructuring costs for the remainder of 2013 at KHE and Kaplan International in conjunction with completing these restructuring plans. Kaplan may also incur additional restructuring charges in 2013 as Kaplan continues to evaluate its cost structure.

A summary of Kaplan’s first quarter 2013 operating results compared to 2012 is as follows:

Kaplan Higher Education (KHE) includes Kaplan’s domestic postsecondary education businesses, made up of fixed -facility colleges and online postsecondary and career programs. KHE also includes the domestic professional training and other continuing education businesses.

In September 2012, KHE announced a plan to consolidate its market presence at certain of its fixed-facility campuses. Under this plan, KHE ceased new enrollments at nine ground campuses as it considered alternatives for these locations, and is in the process of consolidating operations of four other campuses into existing, nearby locations. Revenues at these campuses represented approximately 4% of KHE’s total revenues in 2012. In the fourth quarter of 2012, KHE also began implementing plans to consolidate facilities and reduce its workforce. In connection with these and other plans, KHE incurred $9.1 million in total restructuring costs in the first quarter of 2013, including accelerated depreciation ($3.6 million), severance ($0.9 million), lease obligation losses ($3.7 million) and other items ($0.9 million). In the first quarter of 2013, five of the KHE campuses were closed.

In the first quarter of 2013, KHE revenue declined 12% due to a decline in average enrollments, reflecting weaker market demand over the past year and the impact of campuses in the process of closing. These declines were partially offset by a revenue increase arising from changes in the trial period offered to new students in 2013. These changes had the effect, among others, of recognizing revenue of $5.6 million in the first quarter of 2013 that otherwise would have been recognized in the second quarter of 2013.

Operating income decreased 43% due primarily to lower revenue and restructuring costs noted above. Partially offsetting the declines were expense reductions associated with lower enrollments and recent restructuring efforts.

New student enrollments at KHE decreased 9% in the first quarter of 2013. New student enrollments were adversely affected by campuses planned for closure that are no longer recruiting students, but were positively impacted by the changes in the trial period offered to new students.

Total students at March 31, 2013 were down 12% compared to March 31, 2012, and increased 3% compared to December 31, 2012. Excluding campuses planned for closure, total students at March 31, 2013 were down 8% compared to March 31, 2012, and increased 4% compared to December 31, 2012. A summary of student enrollments is as follows:

	Students as of
	March 31,	December 31,	March 31,
	2013	2012	2012
Kaplan University	48,673	46,737	52,800

KHE Campuses	17,615	16,901	19,459
	66,288	63,638	72,259

Kaplan University enrollments included 8,819 , 7,991 and 9,298 campus-based students as of March 31, 2013, December 31, 2012, and March 31, 2012, respectively.

Kaplan University and KHE Campuses enrollments at March 31, 2013, and March 31, 2012, by degree and certificate programs, are as follows:

	As of March 31,
	2013		2012
Certificate	23.0	%	25.2	%
Associate’s	35.7	%	29.7	%
Bachelor’s	29.5	%	33.6	%
Master’s	11.8	%	11.5	%
	100.0	%	100.0	%

Kaplan Test Preparation (KTP) includes Kaplan’s standardized test preparation and tutoring offerings and other businesses. KTP revenue increased 10% in the first quarter of 2013. Total enrollment was down slightly in the first quarter of 2013 due to declines in graduate programs, offset by continued strength in pre-college, nursing and bar review programs. KTP operating results improved in the first quarter of 2013 due largely to increased revenues.

Kaplan International includes English-language programs and postsecondary education and professional training businesses outside the United States. Kaplan International revenue increased 6% in the first quarter of 2013 due largely to enrollment growth in the pathways, English-language and Singapore higher education programs. Kaplan International operating income increased in the first quarter of 2013 due primarily to strong results in Singapore. In the first quarter of 2013, severance costs totaled $0.3 million in Australia, where Kaplan has been consolidating and restructuring its businesses to optimize operations.

Corporate represents unallocated expenses of Kaplan, Inc.’s corporate office, other minor businesses and shared activities, and Colloquy, which was moved from Kaplan International to Kaplan corporate in 2013. The comparative division results presented above reflect this change.

Cable Television

Cable television division revenue for the first quarter of 2013 increased 5% to $200.1 million, from $190.2 million for the first quarter of 2012. The revenue results reflect rate increases for many subscribers in June 2012, partially offset by a decline in basic video subscribers.

Cable television division operating income increased 12% to $36.6 million, from $32.8 million in the first quarter of 2012, due to increased revenues, partially offset by higher programming and depreciation costs.

At March 31, 2013, Primary Service Units (PSUs) were down 3% from the prior year due to a decline in basic video subscribers. PSUs include about 6,000 subscribers who receive free basic cable service, primarily local governments, schools and other organizations as required by various franchise agreements. A summary of PSUs is as follows:

	As of March 31,
	2013	2012
Basic video	588,180	622,339
High-speed data	463,726	463,443
Telephony	185,717	186,009

Newspaper Publishing

Newspaper publishing division revenue totaled $127.3 million for the first quarter of 2013, down 4% from revenue of $132.5 million for the first quarter of 2012. Print advertising revenue at The Washington Post (“the Post”) in the first quarter of 2013 declined 8% to $48.6 million, from $52.7 million in the first quarter of 2012. The decline is largely due to reductions in general and retail advertising. Revenue generated by the Company’s newspaper online publishing activities, primarily washingtonpost.com and Slate, increased 8% to $25.8 million for the first quarter of 2013, versus $23.9 million for the first quarter of 2012. Display online advertising revenue increased 16% for the first quarter of 2013. Online classified advertising revenue on washingtonpost.com declined 6% for the first quarter of 2013.

For the first quarter of 2013, daily and Sunday circulation at the Post declined 7.2% and 7.7%, respectively, compared to the first quarter of 2012. For the first quarter of 2013, average daily circulation at the Post totaled 457,100, and average Sunday circulation totaled 659,500. In January 2013, the Post implemented circulation price increases for daily home delivery and daily and Sunday single copy categories.

In February 2013, the Company announced a Voluntary Retirement Incentive Program (VRIP) which was offered to certain employees of the Post. The VRIP expense is estimated at $20.4 million, which will be funded from the assets of the Company’s pension plan. Of this amount, $12.0 million was recorded in the first quarter of 2013; the remainder will be recorded in the second quarter of 2013. The Post also implemented a Separation Incentive Program in February 2013 that resulted in an additional $2.3 million in early retirement program expense, which will also be funded from the assets of the Company pension plan. In addition, voluntary severance and other early retirement expense of $1.6 million and $1.9 million was recorded at the newspaper publishing division in the first quarter of 2013 and 2012, respectively.

The newspaper publishing division reported an operating loss of $34.5 million in the first quarter of 2013, compared to an operating loss of $20.6 million in the first quarter of 2012. These operating losses include noncash pension expense of $22.9 million and $8.5 million for the first quarter of 2013 and 2012, respectively. The decline in operating results is primarily due to the $14.0 million increase in early retirement and severance expense, offset partially by a reduction in other operating expenses. Newsprint expense was down 12% for the first quarter of 2013 compared to the first quarter of 2012 due to a decline in newsprint consumption.

In March 2013, the Company completed the sale of The Herald, a daily and Sunday newspaper headquartered in Everett, WA. Consequently, the newspaper division’s operating results exclude The Herald.

Television Broadcasting

Revenue for the television broadcasting division increased 5% in the first quarter of 2013 to $85.3 million, from $81.5 million in 2012; operating income for the first quarter of 2013 increased 14% to $35.4 million, from $31.0 million in 2012. The increase in revenue and operating income reflects growth in advertising demand across many product categories and increased retransmission revenues, offset by a $2.8 million decline in political advertising revenue.

Other Businesses

Other businesses includes the operating results of Social Code, a marketing solutions provider helping companies with marketing on social media platforms; Celtic Healthcare, Inc., a provider of home health care and hospice services in the northeastern and mid-Atlantic regions that was acquired by the Company in November 2012; and WaPo Labs, a digital team focused on emerging technologies and new product development .

Corporate Office

Corporate office includes the expenses of the Company’s corporate office as well as a net pension credit.

Equity in Earnings (Losses) of Affiliates

The Company holds a 16.5% interest in Classified Ventures, LLC, and interests in several other affiliates.

The Company’s equity in earnings of affiliates, net, for the first quarter of 2013 was $3.4 million, compared to $3.9 million for the first quarter of 2012.

Other Non-Operating (Expense) Income

The Company recorded other non-operating expense, net, of $4.1 million for the first quarter of 2013, compared to other non-operating income, net, of $8.6 million for the first quarter of 2012. The first quarter 2013 non-operating expense, net, included $4.6 million in unrealized foreign currency losses and other items. The first quarter 2012 non-operating income, net, included a $5.8 million gain on the sale of a cost method investment, $2.7 million in unrealized foreign currency gains and other items.

A summary of non-operating (expense) income is as follows:

		Three Months Ended
		March 31,
(in thousands)		2013		2012
Foreign currency (losses) gains, net		$	(4,614)	$	2,660

Other, net			710		162
	Total	$	(4,083)	$	8,588

Net Interest Expense

The Company incurred net interest expense of $8.5 million for the first quarter of 2013, compared to $8.1 million for the first quarter of 2012. At March 31, 2013, the Company had $456.9 million in borrowings outstanding at an average interest rate of 7.0%.

Provision for Income Taxes

The effective tax rate for income from continuing operations for the first quarter of 2013 was 52.3%, compared to 45.6% for the first quarter of 2012. The high effective tax rate in the first quarter of 2013 and 2012 results primarily from losses in Australia for which no tax benefit is recorded.

Discontinued Operations

In March 2013, the Company completed the sale of The Herald, a daily and Sunday newspaper headquartered in Everett, WA. Kaplan sold Kidum in August 2012, EduNeering in April 2012 and Kaplan Learning Technologies (KLT) in February 2012. The Company also divested its interest in Avenue100 Media Solutions in July 2012. Consequently, the Company’s income from continuing operations excludes these businesses, which have been reclassified to discontinued operations, net of tax.

The sale of The Herald resulted in a pre-tax loss of $0.1 million that was recorded in the first quarter of 2013. The sale of KLT resulted in a pre-tax loss of $3.1 million that was recorded in the first quarter of 2012. The sale of EduNeering resulted in a pre-tax gain of $29.5 million that was recorded in the second quarter of 2012. In the first quarter of 2012, in connection with each of the sales of the Company’s stock in KLT and EduNeering, the Company recorded $23.2 million of income tax benefits related to the excess of the outside stock tax basis over the net book value of the net assets acquired.

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

The calculation of diluted earnings per share for the first quarter of 2013 was based on 7,266,284 weighted average shares outstanding, compared to 7,614,623 for the first quarter of 2012. At March 31, 2013, there were 7,422,732 shares outstanding and the Company had remaining authorization from the Board of Directors to purchase up to 180,993 shares of Class B common stock.

The Company’s total debt outstanding of $456.9 million at March 31, 2013 included $397.6 million of 7.25% unsecured notes due February 1, 2019, $52.1 million of AUD 50M borrowing and $7.2 million in other debt.

In June 2011, the Company entered into a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) providing for a U.S. $450 million, AUD 50 million four year revolving credit facility (the “Facility”), with each of the lenders party thereto, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent (“JP Morgan”), and J.P. Morgan Australia Limited, as Australian Sub-Agent. The Facility will expire on June 17, 2015, unless the Company and the banks agree to extend the term.

The Company’s credit ratings were unchanged during the first quarter of 2013 and are as follows:

			Standard
	Moody’s		& Poor’s
Long-term		Baa1		BBB
Short-term		Prime-2		A-3

During the first quarter of 2013 and 2012, the Company had average borrowings outstanding of approximately $516.7 million and $484.5 million, respectively, at average annual interest rates of approximately 7.0%. During the first quarter of 2013 and 2012, the Company incurred net interest expense of $8.5 million and $8.1 million, respectively.

At March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company had working capital of $405.9 million and $327.5 million, respectively. The Company maintains working capital levels consistent with its underlying business requirements and consistently generates cash from operations in excess of required interest or principal payments. The Company expects to fund its estimated capital needs primarily through existing cash balances and internally generated funds and to a lesser extent borrowings supported by our Credit Agreement. In management’s opinion, the Company will have ample liquidity to meet its various cash needs throughout 2013.

There were no significant changes to the Company’s contractual obligations or other commercial commitments from those disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.
