NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Preparation of Interim Financial Statements

All references in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to the “Company,” “we,” “us” and “our” refer to iHeartMedia, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. The Company’s reportable segments are iHeartMedia (“iHM”), Americas outdoor advertising (“Americas outdoor” or “Americas outdoor advertising”) and International outdoor advertising (“International outdoor” or “International outdoor advertising”).

The accompanying consolidated financial statements were prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and, in the opinion of management, include all normal and recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the results of the interim periods shown. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such SEC rules and regulations. Management believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. Due to seasonality and other factors, the results for the interim periods may not be indicative of results for the full year. The financial statements contained herein should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Th e consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. Also included in the consolidated financial statements are entities for which the Company has a controlling financial interest or is the primary beneficiary. Investments in companies in which the Company owns 20% to 50% of the voting common stock or otherwise exercises significant influence over operating and financial policies of the company are accounted for under the equity method. All significant intercompany transactions are eliminated in the consolidation process. Certain prior-period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 2017 presentation.

Going Concern Considerations

In evaluating the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, management considered the conditions and events that could raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for 12 months following the date the Company’s financial statements were issued ( August 3, 2017 ). Management considered the Company’s current financial condition and liquidity sources, including current funds available, forecasted future cash flows and the Company’s conditional and unconditional obligations due before August 3, 2018 .

As of June 30, 2017 , the Company had $260.5 million of cash and cash equivalents on its balance sheet, including $163.1 million of cash and cash equivalents held by the Company's subsidiary, Clear Channel Outdoor Holdings, Inc. ("CCOH"). As of June 30, 2017 , the Company had $144.1 million of excess availability under its receivables based credit facility, subject to limitations in iHeartCommunications' material financing agreements. A substantial amount of the Company's cash requirements are for debt service obligations. Although the Company has generated operating income in excess of $1.0 billion in each of the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company incurred net losses and had negative cash flows from operations for each of these years as a result of significant cash interest payments arising from the Company's substantial debt balance. For each of the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company had negative cash flows from operating activities as a result of operating income not being sufficient to cover cash interest expense. For the six months ended June 30, 2017 , the Company used cash of $454.4 million for operating activities, which included cash paid for interest of $876.0 million . The Company's current forecast indicates it will continue to incur net losses and generate negative cash flows from operating activities as a result of the Company's indebtedness and significant related interest expense. During the six months ended June 30, 2017 , the Company spent $905.2 million of cash on payments of principal and interest on its debt and anticipates having approximately $549.9 million and $337.4 million of cash interest payment obligations for each of the quarters ended September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2017, respectively. At June 30, 2017 , the Company had debt maturities totaling $317.6 million , $324.0 million (net of $261.5 million due to certain subsidiaries of iHeartCommunications ) and $8,368.9 million in 2017, 2018 and 2019, respectively. On July 10, 2017, iHeartCommunications exchanged $15.6 million in aggregate principal amount of 11.25% Priority Guarantee Notes due 2021 that

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

were held by a subsidiary of iHeartCommunications for $15.6 million of aggregate principal amount outstanding of its 10.0% Senior Notes due 2018 that were held by an unaffiliated third-party. On July 31, 2017, iHeartCommunications borrowed an additional $60.0 million under its receivables based credit facility. After the exchange and after the additional borrowings under the receivables based credit facility, the Company's debt maturities in the next 12 months include $365.0 million outstanding under its receivables based credit facility, which matures on December 24, 2017, $96.5 million of 10% Senior Notes due January 15, 2018 and $175.0 million of 6.875% Senior Notes due June 15, 2018. The Company's forecast also includes approximately $1.8 billion in cash interest payments in the next 12 months, of which $549.9 million and $337.4 million is payable in the third and fourth quarters of 2017, respectively. These factors indicate that, if the Company is unable to refinance or extend its receivable based credit facility, the 10% Senior Notes due January 15, 2018, and/or the 6.875% Senior Notes due June 15, 2018 and take other steps to create additional liquidity, forecasted cash flows would not be sufficient for the Company to meet its obligations, including upcoming interest payments and maturities on the Company's outstanding debt, as they become due in the ordinary course of business for a period of 12 months following August 3, 2017 . As discussed below, the Company has plans to reduce its principal and interest obligations and to create additional liquidity.

The Company plans to refinance or extend the receivables based credit facility to a date at least 12 months after August 3, 2017 with terms similar to the facility’s current terms. The Company has successfully extended the maturity date of this receivables based credit facility in the past, and the facility has a first-priority lien on the accounts receivable of iHeartCommunications and certain of its subsidiaries. In addition, management is taking actions to create additional liquidity and maximize cash available to meet the Company’s obligations as they become due in the ordinary course of business, including the Company's cash interest payment obligations of $549.9 million and $337.4 million in the third and fourth quarters of 2017, respectively, the payment of the $96.5 million principal amount of 10% Senior Notes due January 15, 2018 at maturity and the payment of the $175.0 million 6.875% Senior Notes due June 15, 2018 at maturity. In addition, as more fully described in Note 3, the Company launched notes exchange offers and term loan offers in March 2017, which notes exchange offers and term loan offers remain open as of August 3, 2017 . These actions are intended to mitigate those conditions which raise substantial doubt of the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period within 12 months following August 3, 2017 .

While the Company continues to work toward completing the notes exchange offers and the term loan offers, refinancing or extending the maturity of the receivables based credit facility on similar terms, and taking other actions to create additional liquidity, there is no assurance that the notes exchange offers and the term loan offers, which have been revised since launch and are subject to substantial further revision, will be completed or that the receivables based credit facility will be refinanced or extended on similar terms. The Company’s ability to meet its obligations as they become due in the ordinary course of business for the next 12 months will depend on its ability to achieve forecasted results, its ability to conserve cash, its ability to refinance or extend the maturity of its receivables based credit facility on similar terms, and its ability to successfully complete the notes exchange offers and the term loan offers and achieve sufficient cash interest savings therefrom and its ability to complete other liquidity-generating transactions. Based on the uncertainty of achieving these actions and the significance of the forecasted future negative cash flows resulting from the Company's substantial debt balance, including anticipated future cash interest payments (including interest due in the third and fourth quarters of 2017) and the maturities of the $365.0 million in current borrowings under the Company's receivables based credit facility that matures December 24, 2017, the $96.5 million aggregate principal amount of 10% Senior Notes due January 15, 2018 and the $175.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.875% Senior Notes due June 15, 2018, management has determined that there is substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of 12 months following August 3, 2017 .

New Accounting Pronouncements

During the third quarter of 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date . This update provides a one-year deferral of the effective date for ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers . ASU No. 2014-09 provides guidance for the recognition, measurement and disclosure of revenue resulting from contracts with customers and will supersede virtually all of the current revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP. The standard is effective for the first interim period within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The two permitted transition methods under the new standard are the full retrospective method, in which case the standard would be applied to each prior reporting period presented and the cumulative effect of applying the standard would be recognized at the earliest period shown, or the modified retrospective method, in which case the cumulative effect of applying the standard would be recognized at the date of initial application. The Company expects to utilize the full retrospective method. The Company has substantially completed its evaluation of the potential changes from adopting the new standard on its future financial reporting and disclosures, which included reviews of contractual terms for all of the Company’s significant revenue streams and the development of an implementation plan. The Company continues to execute on its implementation plan, including detailed policy drafting and training of segment personnel. Based on its evaluation, the Company does not expect material changes to its 2016 or 2017 consolidated revenues, operating income or balance sheets as a result of the implementation of this standard.

During the first quarter of 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) . The new leasing standard presents significant changes to the balance sheets of lessees. Lessor accounting is updated to align with certain changes in the lessee model and the new revenue recognition standard which was issued in the third quarter of 2015. The standard is effective for annual periods, and for interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the provisions of this new standard on its consolidated financial statements.

During the first quarter of 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350) . This update eliminates the requirement to calculate the implied fair value of goodwill to measure a goodwill impairment charge. Entities will record an impairment charge based on the excess of a reporting unit's carrying amount over its fair value. The standard is effective for annual and any interim impairment tests performed for periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the provisions of this new standard on its consolidated financial statements.

During the second quarter of 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718) . This update mandates that entities will apply the modification accounting guidance if the value, vesting conditions or classification of a stock-based award changes. Entities will have to make all of the disclosures about modifications that are required today, in addition to disclosing that compensation expense hasn't changed. Additionally, the new guidance also clarifies that a modification to an award could be significant and therefore require disclosure, even if the modification accounting is not required. The guidance will be applied prospectively to awards modified on or after the adoption date and is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the provisions of this new standard on its consolidated financial statements.

Indefinite-lived Intangible Assets

The Company’s indefinite-lived intangible assets consist of Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) broadcast licenses in its iHM segment and billboard permits in its Americas outdoor advertising segment. Due to significant differences in both business practices and regulations, billboards in the International outdoor segment are subject to long-term, finite contracts unlike the Company’s permits in the United States and Canada. Accordingly, there are no indefinite-lived intangible assets in the International outdoor segment.

Other Intangible Assets

Other intangible assets include definite-lived intangible assets and permanent easements. The Company’s definite-lived intangible assets primarily include transit and street furniture contracts, talent and representation contracts, customer and advertiser relationships, and site-leases and other contractual rights, all of which are amortized over the shorter of either the respective lives of the agreements or over the period of time the assets are expected to contribute directly or indirectly to the Company’s future cash flows. Permanent easements are indefinite-lived intangible assets which include certain rights to use real property not owned by the Company. The Company periodically reviews the appropriateness of the amortization periods related to its definite-lived intangible assets. These assets are recorded at cost.

The following table presents the gross carrying amount and accumulated amortization for each major class of other intangible assets as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , respectively:

NOTE 4 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company and its subsidiaries are involved in certain legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business and, as required, have accrued an estimate of the probable costs for the resolution of those claims for which the occurrence of loss is probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. These estimates have been developed in consultation with counsel and are based upon an analysis of potential results, assuming a combination of litigation and settlement strategies. It is possible, however, that future results of operations for any particular period could be materially affected by changes in the Company’s assumptions or the effectiveness of its strategies related to these proceedings. Additionally, due to the inherent uncertainty of litigation, there can be no assurance that the resolution of any particular claim or proceeding would not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

Although the Company is involved in a variety of legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business, a large portion of the Company’s litigation arises in the following contexts: commercial disputes; defamation matters; employment and benefits related claims; governmental fines; intellectual property claims; and tax disputes.

International Outdoor Investigation

On April 21, 2015, inspections were conducted at the premises of Clear Channel in Denmark and Sweden as part of an investigation by Danish competition authorities.

(UNAUDITED)

CCOH’s lack of autonomy over its own cash and the actions of the defendants in serving the interests of the Company, iHeartCommunications and the Sponsor Defendants to the detriment of CCOH and its minority stockholders. Specifically, the complaint alleges that the defendants have breached their fiduciary duties by causing CCOH to: (i) continue to loan cash to iHeartCommunications under the intercompany note at below-market rates; (ii) abandon its growth and acquisition strategies in favor of transactions that would provide cash to the Company and iHeartCommunications ; (iii) issue new debt in the CCIBV note offering (the "CCIBV Note Offering") to provide cash to the Company and iHeartCommunications through a dividend; and (iv) effect the sales of certain outdoor markets in the U.S. (the "Outdoor Asset Sales") allegedly to provide cash to the Company and iHeartCommunications through a dividend. The complaint also alleges that the Company, iHeartCommunications and the Sponsor Defendants aided and abetted the directors' breaches of their fiduciary duties. The complaint further alleges that the Company, iHeartCommunications and the Sponsor Defendants were unjustly enriched as a result of these transactions and that these transactions constituted a waste of corporate assets for which the defendants are liable to CCOH. The plaintiff is seeking, among other things, a ruling that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties to CCOH and that the Company, iHeartCommunications and the Sponsor Defendants aided and abetted the CCOH board of directors' breaches of fiduciary duty, rescission of payments made by CCOH to iHeartCommunications and its affiliates pursuant to dividends declared in connection with the CCIBV Note Offering and Outdoor Asset Sales, and an order requiring the Company, iHeartCommunications and the Sponsor Defendants to disgorge all profits they have received as a result of the alleged fiduciary misconduct.

On July 20, 2016, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss plaintiff's verified stockholder derivative complaint for failure to state a claim upon which relief can be granted. On November 23, 2016, the Court granted defendants' motion to dismiss all claims brought by the plaintiff. On December 19, 2016, the plaintiff filed a notice of appeal of the ruling. This appeal is pending before the Court.

The effective tax rates for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 were (9.5)% and (12.3)% , respectively. The 2017 and 2016 effective tax rates were primarily impacted by the valuation allowance recorded against deferred tax assets resulting from current period net operating losses in U.S. federal, state and certain foreign jurisdictions due to uncertainty regarding the Company's ability to realize those assets in future periods.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Format of Presentation

Management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations (“MD&A”) should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related footnotes contained in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Our discussion is presented on both a consolidated and segment basis. Our reportable segments are iHeartMedia (“iHM”), Americas outdoor advertising (“Americas outdoor” or “Americas outdoor advertising”) and International outdoor advertising (“International outdoor” or “International outdoor advertising”). Our iHM segment provides media and entertainment services via live broadcast and digital delivery, and also includes our national syndication business. Our Americas outdoor and International outdoor segments provide outdoor advertising services in their respective geographic regions using various digital and traditional display types. Included in the “Other” category is our media representation business, Katz Media Group, which is ancillary to our other businesses.

We manage our operating segments by focusing primarily on their operating income, while Corporate expenses, Other operating income (expense), net, Interest expense, Gain on marketable securities, Equity in earnings (loss) of nonconsolidated affiliates, Loss on extinguishment of debt, Other income, net and Income tax expense are managed on a total company basis and are, therefore, included only in our discussion of consolidated results.

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 2017 presentation.

Our iHM strategy centers on delivering entertaining and informative content across multiple platforms, including broadcast, mobile and digital, as well as events. Our primary source of revenue is derived from selling local and national advertising time on our radio stations, with contracts typically less than one year in duration. The programming formats of our radio stations are designed to reach audiences with targeted demographic characteristics. We are working closely with our advertising and marketing partners to develop tools and leverage data to enable advertisers to effectively reach their desired audiences. We continue to expand the choices for listeners and we deliver our content and sell advertising across multiple distribution channels including digitally via our iHeartRadio mobile application and other digital platforms which reach national, regional and local audiences. We also generate revenues from network syndication, our nationally recognized live events, our station websites and other miscellaneous transactions.

Management typically monitors our outdoor advertising business by reviewing the average rates, average revenue per display, occupancy and inventory levels of each of our display types by market. Our outdoor advertising revenue is derived from selling advertising space on the displays we own or operate in key markets worldwide, consisting primarily of billboards, street furniture and transit displays. Part of our long-term strategy for our outdoor advertising businesses is to pursue the technology of digital displays, including flat screens, LCDs and LEDs, as additions to traditional methods of displaying our clients’ advertisements. We are currently installing these technologies in certain markets, both domestically and internationally.

Our advertising revenue for all of our segments is highly correlated to changes in gross domestic product (“GDP”) as advertising spending has historically trended in line with GDP, both domestically and internationally. Internationally, our results are impacted by fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates as well as the economic conditions in the foreign markets in which we have operations.

Executive Summary

The key developments that impacted our business are summarized below:

•

Consolidated revenue decreased $24.1 million during the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the same period of 2016 . Excluding the $15.5 million impact from movements in foreign exchange rates, consolidated revenue decreased $8.6 million during the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the same period of 2016 , primarily due to the sales of certain outdoor businesses, which generated $36.1 million in revenue in three months ended June 30, 2016.


•	On July, 31, 2017, the Company borrowed an additional $60.0 million on its receivables based credit facility that matures December 24, 2017.

Revenues and expenses “excluding the impact of foreign exchange movements” in this Management’s Discussion & Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations are presented because management believes that viewing certain financial results without the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency rates facilitates period to period comparisons of business performance and provides useful information to investors. Revenues and expenses “excluding the impact of foreign exchange movements” are calculated by converting the current period’s revenues and expenses in local currency to U.S. dollars using average foreign exchange rates for the prior period.

Consolidated Results of Operations

The comparison of our historical results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 to the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 is as follows:

Excluding the $15.5 million impact from movements in foreign exchange rates, consolidated revenue decreased $8.6 million during the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the same period of 2016 .

Consolidated Direct Operating Expenses

Consolidated direct operating expenses increased $1.2 million during the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the same period of 2016 . Excluding the $9.3 million impact from movements in foreign exchange rates, consolidated direct operating expenses increased $10.5 million during the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the same period of 2016 . Higher direct operating expenses in our iHM business and International outdoor business were partially offset by the impact of the sale of our businesses in Australia and Turkey in 2016.

Consolidated direct operating expenses increased $5.8 million during the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the same period of 2016 . Excluding the $18.5 million impact from movements in foreign exchange rates, consolidated direct operating expenses increased $24.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the same period of 2016 .

Higher direct operating expenses in our iHM business and International outdoor business were partially offset by the impact of the sale of our businesses in Australia and Turkey in 2016.

Consolidated Selling, General and Administrative (“SG&A”) Expenses

Consolidated SG&A expenses increased $12.7 million during the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the same period of 2016 . Excluding the $3.0 million impact from movements in foreign exchange rates, consolidated SG&A expenses increased $15.7 million during the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the same period of 2016 . Higher SG&A expenses primarily driven by trade and barter expenses in our iHM business were partially offset by decreases in SG&A expenses in our Americas outdoor business, as well as in our International outdoor business resulting from the sale of our businesses in Australia and Turkey in 2016.

Consolidated SG&A expenses increased $37.8 million during the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the same period of 2016 . Excluding the $5.6 million impact from movements in foreign exchange rates, consolidated SG&A expenses increased $43.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the same period of 2016 .

Corporate Expenses

Corporate expenses decreased $10.5 million during the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the same period of 2016 . Excluding the $0.8 million impact from movements in foreign exchange rates, corporate expenses decreased $9.7 million during the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the same period of 2016 primarily resulting from lower spending on professional fees, partially offset by higher spending on our strategic revenue and efficiency initiatives.

Corporate expenses decreased $10.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the same period of 2016 . Excluding the $1.9 million impact from movements in foreign exchange rates, corporate expenses decreased $8.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the same period of 2016 . For the six month period ended June 30, 2016, professional fees incurred in connection with our capital structure were reflected as part of Corporate expenses. For the six month period ended June 30, 2017, we incurred professional fees directly related to the notes exchange offers and term loan offers and, accordingly, such fees are reflected in Other Income (Expense), net as further discussed below. The reduction in Corporate expenses is partially offset by higher spending on strategic revenue and efficiency initiatives.

Strategic Revenue and Efficiency Initiatives

Included in the amounts for direct operating expenses, SG&A and corporate expenses discussed above are expenses incurred in connection with our strategic revenue and efficiency initiatives. These costs consist primarily of severance related to workforce initiatives, consolidation of locations and positions, contract cancellation costs, consulting expenses, and other costs incurred in connection with improving our businesses. These costs are expected to provide benefits in future periods as the initiative results are realized.

Strategic revenue and efficiency costs were $13.1 million during the three months ended June 30, 2017 .

Corporate. Additionally, $5.2 million of these costs are reported within direct operating expenses, $7.5 million are reported within SG&A and $0.8 million are reported within corporate expenses.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization decreased $14.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2017 , compared to the same period of 2016 . The decrease was primarily due to assets becoming fully depreciated or fully amortized and the disposal of assets related to the sale of our Australia and Turkey businesses in 2016.

Depreciation and amortization decreased $23.7 million during the six months ended June 30, 2017 , compared to the same period of 2016 . The decrease was primarily due to assets becoming fully depreciated or fully amortized and the disposal of assets related to the sale of our outdoor non-strategic U.S. markets and Australia and Turkey businesses in 2016.

Other Operating Income, Net

Other operating income , net was $6.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 , which primarily related to the gain of $6.8 million recognized on the sale of our ownership interest in a joint venture in Belgium during the second quarter of 2017. Other operating income , net of $38.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 primarily related to the sale in the first quarter of 2017 of the Americas outdoor Indianapolis market exchanged for certain assets in Atlanta, Georgia, plus $43.1 million in cash, net of closing costs, resulting in a net gain of $28.9 million .

Other operating expense of $64.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 , primarily related to the net loss on the sale of operating assets including the sale of our Turkey outdoor business, resulting in a net loss of $56.6 million which includes cumulative translation adjustments of $32.2 million. Other operating income of $220.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 , primarily related to the sale of nine non-strategic outdoor markets in the first quarter of 2016, partially offset by the loss on the sale of our Australia and Turkey businesses.

Interest Expense

Interest expense decreased $2.8 million and decreased $11.4 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 , respectively, compared to the same periods of 2016 . The decrease is primarily due to settlements of long-term debt in 2016, partially offset by an increase in variable interest rates, resulting from an increase in LIBOR.

Other Income (Expense), net

Other income , net was $1.6 million and other expense, net was $13.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 , respectively. These amounts relate primarily to net foreign exchange gains of $9.1 million and $12.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively, recognized in connection with intercompany notes denominated in foreign currencies, offset by expenses incurred in connection with the notes exchange offers and term loan offers of $7.1 million and $23.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively, as described in "Liquidity and Capital Resources - Notes Exchange Offers and Term Loan Offers".

Other expense, net was $34.0 million and $39.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 , respectively, which primarily related to net foreign exchange losses recognized in connection with intercompany notes denominated in foreign currencies.

Income Tax Expense

The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 was (11.6)% and (9.5)% , respectively. The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 was (10.9)% and (12.3)% , respectively. The effective tax rates were primarily impacted by the valuation allowance recorded against deferred tax assets originating in the period from net operating losses in U.S. federal, state and certain foreign jurisdictions.

Three Months

iHM revenue increased $16.5 million during the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the same period of 2016 , with growth in national revenue and other revenue being partially offset by lower local revenue. National revenue grew in response to our national sales initiatives and investments and increased programmatic buying, in addition to an increase in national trade and barter, partially offset by a decrease in national traffic and weather revenue and the impact on revenue of the timing of the iHeartRadio Music Awards Show, which was held in April 2016. The increase in other revenue included an approximately $4.0 million cash payment received in satisfaction of an agreement related to prior years. Local revenue decreased as a result of lower spot revenue, partially offset by an increase in local trade and barter.

iHM direct operating expenses increased $13.8 million during the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the same period of 2016 primarily driven by higher spending on strategic revenue and efficiency initiatives, as well as higher content and programming costs. iHM SG&A expenses increased $27.1 million during the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the same period of 2016 primarily due to higher trade and barter expenses, investments in national and digital sales capabilities and higher variable expenses, including sales activation and commissions.

Six Months

iHM revenue increased $34.8 million during the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the same period of 2016 , with growth in national revenue and other revenue being partially offset by lower local revenue. National revenue grew in response to our national sales initiatives and investments and increased programmatic buying, in addition to an increase in national trade and barter, partially offset by a decrease in national traffic and weather revenue. Other revenue increased partially as a result of higher talent appearance fees and included an approximately $4.0 million cash payment received in satisfaction of an agreement related to prior years. Local revenue decreased primarily as a result of lower spot revenue, partially offset by an increase in local trade and barter.

iHM direct operating expenses increased $33.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the same period of 2016 primarily driven by higher content and programming costs, including talent fees and music license fees. iHM SG&A expenses increased $63.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the same period of 2016 primarily due to higher trade and barter expenses, investments in national and digital sales capabilities and higher variable expenses, including sales activation and commissions.

Three Months

Americas outdoor revenue decreased $1.6 million during the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the same period of 2016 . Excluding the $0.5 million impact from movements in foreign exchange rates, Americas outdoor revenue decreased $2.1 million during the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the same period of 2016 . The decrease in revenue is primarily due to a $2.9 million decrease in revenue resulting from the exchange of outdoor markets and a decrease in print display revenues. This was partially offset by increased revenue from digital billboards from new deployments, as well as higher revenue from new print wall displays.

Americas outdoor direct operating expenses increased $5.1 million during the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the same period of 2016 . Excluding the $0.2 million impact from movements in foreign exchange rates, Americas outdoor direct operating expenses increased $4.9 million during the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the same period of 2016 . The increase in direct operating expenses was driven by the impact of a $2.9 million early termination lease payment received in 2016 and higher fixed site lease expenses.

Share-Based Compensation Expense

We have granted restricted stock and CCOH has granted restricted stock, restricted stock units and options to purchase shares of CCOH's Class A common stock to certain key individuals.

Share-based compensation expenses are recorded in corporate expenses and were $2.4 million and $3.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively, and $5.5 million and $6.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively.

As of June 30, 2017 , there was $12.9 million of unrecognized compensation cost, net of estimated forfeitures, related to unvested share-based compensation arrangements that will vest based on service conditions. This cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 2.3 years. In addition, as of June 30, 2017 , there was $25.6 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested share-based compensation arrangements that will vest based on market, performance and service conditions. This cost will be recognized when it becomes probable that the performance condition will be satisfied.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash Flows

The following discussion highlights cash flow activities during the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively:



(In thousands)	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2017			2016
Cash provided by (used for):
Operating activities	$	(454,374	)	$	(181,650	)
Investing activities	$	(81,272	)	$	436,860
Financing activities	$	(55,579	)	$	(76,313	)

Operating Activities

Cash used for operating activities was $454.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to $181.7 million of cash used for operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2016 . The increase in cash used for operating activities is primarily attributed to lower operating income as well as changes in working capital balances, particularly accounts receivable and prepaid assets, which were affected by slower collections, the timing of payments and deferred income. Cash paid for interest during the six months ended June 30, 2017 was $876.0 million as compared to $873.7 million paid during the six months ended June 30, 2016 .

Investing Activities

Cash used for investing activities of $81.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2017 reflected $136.6 million used for capital expenditures, partially offset by net cash proceeds from the sale of assets of $60.3 million , which included net cash proceeds from the sale of our outdoor Indianapolis market of $43.1 million . We spent $30.3 million for capital expenditures in our iHM segment primarily related to IT infrastructure, $41.0 million in our Americas outdoor segment primarily related to the construction of new advertising structures, such as digital displays, $57.7 million in our International outdoor segment primarily related to street furniture and transit advertising structures, $0.4 million in our Other category and $7.2 million in Corporate primarily related to equipment and software purchases.

Cash provided by investing activities of $436.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2016 reflected net cash proceeds from the sale of nine non-strategic outdoor markets including Cleveland and Columbus, Ohio, Des Moines, Iowa, Ft. Smith, Arkansas, Memphis, Tennessee, Portland, Oregon, Reno, Nevada, Seattle, Washington and Wichita, Kansas of $592.3 million in cash and certain advertising assets in Florida. Those sale proceeds were partially offset by $123.7 million used for capital expenditures. We spent $23.1 million for capital expenditures in our iHM segment primarily related to leasehold improvements and IT infrastructure, $28.7 million in our Americas outdoor segment primarily related to the construction of new advertising structures, such as digital displays, $66.7 million in our International outdoor segment primarily related to billboard and street furniture advertising structures, $1.2 million in our Other category and $4.0 million in Corporate primarily related to equipment and software purchases.

Financing Activities

Cash used for financing activities of $55.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2017 primarily resulted from dividends paid to non-controlling interests, which represents the portion of the dividends paid by CCOH in February 2017 to parties other than our subsidiaries that own CCOH stock, and a payment under our receivables based credit facility.

Cash used for financing activities of $76.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2016 primarily resulted from dividends paid to non-controlling interests, which represents the portion of the dividends paid by CCOH in January 2016 and February 2016 to parties other than our subsidiaries that own CCOH common stock.

Anticipated Cash Requirements

Our primary sources of liquidity are cash on hand, cash flow from operations, borrowing capacity under iHeartCommunications' domestic receivables based credit facility, subject to certain limitations contained in iHeartCommunications' material financing agreements, and cash from liquidity-generating transactions. As of June 30, 2017 , we had $260.5 million of cash and cash equivalents on our balance sheet, including $163.1 million of cash and cash equivalents held by our subsidiary, CCOH. Included in the cash held by CCOH is $139.1 million of cash held outside the U.S. It is our policy to permanently reinvest the earnings of our non-U.S. subsidiaries as these earnings are generally redeployed in those jurisdictions for operating needs and continued functioning of their businesses. We have the ability and intent to indefinitely reinvest the undistributed earnings of consolidated subsidiaries based outside of the United States. If any excess cash held by our foreign subsidiaries were needed to fund operations in the United States, we could presently repatriate available funds without a requirement to accrue or pay U.S. taxes. This is a result of significant deficits, as calculated for tax law purposes, in our foreign earnings and profits, which gives us flexibility to make future cash distributions as non-taxable returns of capital.

As of June 30, 2017 , we had a borrowing base of $491.4 million under iHeartCommunications' receivables based credit facility, had $305.0 million of outstanding borrowings and had $42.3 million of outstanding letters of credit, resulting in $144.1 million of excess availability. However, any incremental borrowings under iHeartCommunications' receivables based credit facility may be further limited by the terms contained in iHeartCommunications' material financing agreements. On July 31, 2017, iHeartCommunications borrowed an additional $60.0 million under its receivables based credit facility, resulting in a total of $365.0 million of outstanding borrowings under this facility, which matures on December 24, 2017.

Our primary uses of liquidity are to fund our working capital, debt service, capital expenditures and other obligations. At June 30, 2017 , we had debt maturities totaling $317.6 million , $324.0 million (net of $261.5 million due to certain subsidiaries of iHeartCommunications ) and $8,368.9 million in 2017 , 2018 and 2019 , respectively. A substantial amount of our cash requirements are for debt service obligations. We anticipate having approximately $549.9 million and $337.4 million of cash interest payment obligations in the three month periods ended September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2017, respectively. Our significant interest payment obligations reduce our financial flexibility, make us more vulnerable to changes in operating performance and economic downturns, reduce our liquidity and negatively affect iHeartCommunications' ability to obtain additional financing in the future.

While we have historically been successful in accessing the capital markets on terms and in amounts adequate to refinance our indebtedness and meet our liquidity needs in the past, we may no longer be able to refinance our indebtedness in sufficient amounts or on terms acceptable to us in the future due to market conditions, our financial condition, our liquidity constraints or other factors, many of which are beyond our control. Even if refinancing alternatives are available to us, we may not find them suitable or at comparable interest rates to the indebtedness being refinanced, and our annual cash interest payment obligations could increase further. In addition, the terms of our existing or future debt agreements may restrict us from securing refinancing on terms that are available to us at that time. If we are unable to continue to obtain sources of refinancing or generate sufficient cash through our operations and liquidity-generating transactions, we will face substantial liquidity constraints, which if we are not able to address through completion of our proposed notes exchange offers and term loan offers or otherwise, would have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and on our ability to meet iHeartCommunications' obligations as they become due.

In evaluating our ability to continue as a going concern, management considered the conditions and events that could raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for a period of 12 months following the date our financial statements were issued ( August 3, 2017 ). Management considered our current financial condition and liquidity sources, including current funds available, forecasted future cash flows and our conditional and unconditional obligations due before August 3, 2018 .

A substantial amount of our cash requirements are for debt service obligations. Although we have generated operating income in excess of $1.0 billion in each of the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, we incurred net losses and had negative cash flows from operations for each of these years as a result of significant cash interest payments arising from our substantial debt balance. For each of the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, we had negative cash flows from operating activities as a result of operating income not being sufficient to cover cash interest expense. For the six months ended June 30, 2017 , we used $454.4 million for operating activities, which included cash paid for interest of $876.0 million . Our current forecast indicates we will continue to incur net losses and generate negative cash flows from operating activities as a result of our indebtedness and significant related interest expense. During the six months ended June 30, 2017 , we spent $905.2 million of cash on payments of principal and interest on our debt and anticipate having approximately $549.9 million and $337.4 million of cash interest payment obligations for each of the quarters ending September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2017, respectively. As described above, at June 30, 2017 , we had debt maturities totaling $317.6 million , $324.0 million (net of $261.5 million due to certain subsidiaries of iHeartCommunications ) and $8,368.9 million in 2017 , 2018 and 2019 , respectively. On July 10, 2017, iHeartCommunications exchanged $15.6 million in aggregate principal amount of 11.25% Priority Guarantee Notes due 2021 that were held by its subsidiary for $15.6 million of aggregate principal amount outstanding of its 10.0% Senior Notes due 2018 that were held by an unaffiliated third party. On July 31, 2017, iHeartCommunications borrowed an additional $60.0 million under its receivables based credit facility. After the exchange and after the additional borrowing under the receivables based credit facility, our debt maturities in the next 12 months include $365.0 million outstanding under our receivables based credit facility, which matures on December 24, 2017, $96.5 million of 10% Senior Notes due January 15, 2018 and $175.0 million of 6.875% Senior Notes due June 15, 2018. Our forecast also includes approximately $1.8 billion in cash interest payments in the next 12 months, of which $549.9 million and $337.4 million is payable in the third and fourth quarters of 2017, respectively. These factors indicate that, if we are unable to refinance or extend the receivables based credit facility, the 10% Senior Notes due January 15, 2018, and/or the 6.875% Senior Notes due June 15, 2018 and take other steps to create additional liquidity, forecasted cash flows would not be sufficient for us to meet our obligations, including upcoming interest payments and maturities on our outstanding debt, as they become due in the ordinary course of business for a period of 12 months following August 3, 2017 . As discussed below, we have plans to reduce our principal and interest obligations and to create additional liquidity.

We plan to refinance or extend the receivables based credit facility to a date at least 12 months after August 3, 2017 with terms similar to the facility’s current terms. We have successfully extended the maturity date of this facility in the past, and the facility has a first-priority lien on the accounts receivable of iHeartCommunications and certain of its subsidiaries. In addition, we have begun taking actions to create additional liquidity and maximize cash available to meet our obligations as they become due in the ordinary course of business, including our cash interest payment obligations of $549.9 million and $337.4 million in the third and fourth quarters of 2017, respectively, the payment of the $96.5 million principal amount of 10% Senior Notes due January 15, 2018 at maturity and the payment of the $175.0 million principal amount of 6.875% Senior Notes due June 15, 2018 at maturity. In addition, as more fully described in Note 3 of our financial statements, we launched notes exchange offers and term loan offers in March 2017, which notes exchange offers and term loan offers remain open as of August 3, 2017 . These actions are intended to mitigate those conditions which raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

While we continue to work toward completing the notes exchange offers and the term loan offers, refinancing or extending the maturity of the receivables based credit facility on similar terms, and taking other actions to create additional liquidity, there is no assurance that the notes exchange offers and the term loan offers, which have been revised since launch and are subject to substantial further revision will be completed or that the receivables based credit facility will be refinanced or extended on similar terms. Our ability to meet our obligations as they become due in the ordinary course of business for the next 12 months will depend on our ability to achieve forecasted results, our ability to conserve cash, our ability to refinance or extend the maturity of iHeartCommunications' receivables based credit facility on similar terms, our ability to successfully complete the notes exchange offers and the term loan offers and achieve sufficient cash interest savings therefrom and our ability to complete other liquidity-generating transactions. Based on the uncertainty of achieving these actions and the significance of the forecasted future negative cash flows resulting from our substantial debt balance, including anticipated future cash interest payments (including interest due in the third and fourth quarters of 2017) and the maturities of the $365.0 million in current borrowings under iHeartCommunications' receivables based credit facility that matures December 24, 2017, $96.5 million aggregate principal amount of 10% Senior Notes due January 15, 2018 and the $175.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.875% Senior Notes due June 15, 2018, management has determined that there is substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern for a period of 12 months following August 3, 2017 .

If we are unable to refinance or extend the maturity of the receivables based credit facility or complete the notes exchange offers and the term loan offers or realize sufficient cash interest savings as a result of those offers and create additional liquidity, or if there are material adverse developments in our business results of operations or liquidity, we may be forced to further reduce or delay our business activities and capital expenditures, sell material assets, seek additional capital or be required to file for bankruptcy court protection. We cannot assure you that we would be able to accomplish any of these alternatives on a timely basis or on satisfactory terms, if at all.

The covenants in iHeartCommunications' senior secured credit facilities include a requirement that we receive an opinion from our auditors in connection with our year-end audit that is not subject to a “going concern” or like qualification or exception. Even if we are able to successfully refinance or extend the maturity of the receivables based credit facility and manage our liquidity challenges through the end of 2017, if we are unable to refinance or extend a significant portion of our substantial 2019 debt maturities prior to the completion of the audit of our 2017 financial statements, we anticipate that our auditor’s year-end opinion will contain a “going concern” qualification, and, if we are unable to obtain a waiver of the covenant in the senior secured credit facilities that requires us to deliver an unqualified auditor’s opinion, it will trigger a default under the senior secured credit facilities. The terms of the term loan offers contemplate an amendment to the term loan credit facility so that the covenant no longer requires the absence of a “going concern” or similar qualification in connection the delivery of audited financial statements, but we cannot assure you that we will be able to consummate the term loan offers or otherwise obtain such an amendment.

Except as set forth below under "Non-Payment of $57.1 Million of iHeartCommunications' Legacy Notes Held by an Affiliate," we were in compliance with the covenants contained in iHeartCommunications' material financing agreements as of June 30, 2017 , including the maximum consolidated senior secured net debt to consolidated EBITDA limitation contained in iHeartCommunications' senior secured credit facilities. However, our future results are subject to significant uncertainty and there can be no assurance that we will be able to maintain compliance with these covenants. Our ability to comply with these covenants in the future may be affected by events beyond our control, including the uncertainties described above and prevailing economic, financial and industry conditions. The breach of any covenants set forth in iHeartCommunications' financing agreements would result in a default thereunder. An event of default would permit the lenders under a defaulted financing agreement to declare all indebtedness thereunder to be immediately due and payable. Moreover, the lenders under the receivables based credit facility under iHeartCommunications' senior secured credit facilities would have the option to terminate their commitments to make further extensions of credit thereunder. If we are unable to repay iHeartCommunications' obligations under any secured credit facility, the lenders could proceed against any assets that were pledged to secure such facility. In addition, a default or acceleration under any of iHeartCommunications' material financing agreements could cause a default under other of our obligations that are subject to cross-default and cross-acceleration provisions. The threshold amount for a cross-default under the senior secured credit facilities and the indentures governing our outstanding bonds is $100.0 million. The default resulting from non-payment of the $57.1 million of 5.50% Senior Notes described below is below the $100.0 million cross-default threshold in iHeartCommunications' debt documents but will be included in any determination as to whether that threshold has been met so long as that default is continuing.

Recent Liquidity-Generating Transactions

On February 9, 2017, CCOH declared a special dividend of $282.5 million using a portion of the proceeds from the sales of certain non-strategic U.S. outdoor markets and of our Australia outdoor business. On February 23, 2017, we received 89.9% of that dividend, or approximately $254.0 million, with the remaining 10.1%, or approximately $28.5 million, paid to public stockholders of CCOH. This transaction improved our liquidity position in the short term. We cannot assure you that we will enter into or consummate any liquidity-generating transactions, or that such transactions will provide sufficient cash to satisfy our liquidity needs, and any such transactions, if consummated, could adversely affect us in other ways. Future liquidity-generating transactions could have the effect of further increasing our annual cash interest payment obligations, reducing our cash flow from operations or reducing cash available for capital expenditures and other business initiatives.

On February 7, 2017, iHeartCommunications completed an exchange offer of $234.9 million principal amount of our 10.0% Senior Notes due 2018 for $234.9 million principal amount of newly-issued 11.25% Priority Guarantee Notes due 2021. On July 10, 2017, iHeartCommunications completed a privately-negotiated exchange of $15.6 million principal amount of its 10.0% Senior Notes due 2018 that were held by an unaffiliated third party for $15.6 million principal amount of its 11.25% Priority Guarantee Notes due 2021 that were held by a subsidiary of iHeartCommunications . We have made and may in the future make repurchases and exchanges of indebtedness of iHeartCommunications . In addition, we frequently evaluate strategic opportunities both within and outside our existing lines of business. We expect from time to time to pursue dispositions or acquisitions, which could be material. iHeartCommunications' and its subsidiaries’ significant amount of indebtedness may limit our ability to pursue dispositions or acquisitions. The terms of our existing or future debt agreements may also restrict our ability to engage in these transactions.

On July 31, 2017, we borrowed an additional $60.0 million under our receivables based credit facility.

Non-Payment of $57.1 Million of iHeartCommunications Legacy Notes Held by an Affiliate

Our wholly-owned subsidiary, Clear Channel Holdings, Inc. ("CCH"), owns $57.1 million aggregate principal amount of our 5.50% Senior Notes due 2016 (the "5.50% Senior Notes"). On December 9, 2016, a special committee of our independent directors decided to not repay the $57.1 million principal amount of the 5.50% Senior Notes held by CCH when the notes matured on December 15, 2016 and on December 12, 2016, we informed CCH of that decision. CCH informed us on that date that, while it retains its right to exercise remedies under the indenture governing the 5.50% Senior Notes (the "legacy notes indenture") in the future, it does not currently intend to, and it does not currently intend to request that the trustee, seek to collect principal amounts due or exercise or request enforcement of any remedy with respect to the nonpayment of such principal amount under the legacy notes indenture. As a result, $57.1 million of the 5.50% Senior Notes remain outstanding. We repaid the other $192.9 million of 5.50% Senior Notes held by other holders, and we intend to continue to pay interest on the 5.50% Senior Notes held by CCH for so long as such notes continue to remain outstanding.

For as long as we have at least $500 million of legacy notes outstanding, including the $57.1 million of 5.50% Senior Notes currently held by CCH, we will not have an obligation to grant certain additional security interests in favor of certain of our lenders and holders of our existing priority guarantee notes or the holders of our legacy notes under the "springing lien" described in the agreements governing that indebtedness, and the limitations existing with respect to the existing security interests will remain in place until up to 60 days following the date on which not more than $500 million aggregate principal amount of the legacy notes remain outstanding.

Notes Exchange Offers and Term Loan Offers

On March 15, 2017, iHeartCommunications commenced exchange offers (the “notes exchange offers”) to exchange certain series of its outstanding debt securities (the “Existing Notes”) for new securities of the Company , iHeartCommunications and CC Outdoor Holdings, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company , and concurrent consent solicitations with respect to the terms of the Existing Notes. On March 15, 2017, the Company also commenced offers (the “term loan offers”) to amend its outstanding Term Loan D and Term Loan E borrowings under its senior secured credit facilities and/or to issue new securities of the Company , CC Outdoor Holdings, Inc., Broader Media, LLC and/or iHeartCommunications to the lenders depending on the scenario in which the notes exchange offers and the term loan offers close. The notes exchange offers were amended on April 14, 2017. Both the notes exchange offers and the term loan offers were open as of August 3, 2017 . The terms of the notes exchange offers and the term loan offers have been revised and are subject to substantial further revision, and the offers may never be consummated, on the terms currently proposed or otherwise.

(1)

The receivables based credit facility provides for borrowings of up to the lesser of $535.0 million (the revolving credit commitment) or the borrowing base amount, as defined under the receivables based credit facility, subject to certain limitations contained in iHeartCommunications' material financing agreements. As of June 30, 2017 , we had $144.1 million of availability under the receivables based credit facility.

(2)

On February 7, 2017, we completed an exchange offer of $234.9 million principal amount of our 10.0% Senior Notes due 2018 for $234.9 million principal amount of newly-issued 11.25% Priority Guarantee Notes due 2021, which were issued as "additional notes" under the indenture governing the 11.25% Priority Guarantee Notes due 2021. On July 10, 2017, we exchanged $15.6 million principal amount of our 10.0% Senior Notes due 2018 that were held by an unaffiliated third party for $15.6 million principal amount of our 11.25% Priority Guarantee Notes due 2021 that were held by a subsidiary of iHeartCommunications .


(3)	The subsidiary revolving credit facility provides for borrowings of up to $75.0 million (the revolving credit commitment).


(4)	In December 2016, iHeartCommunications repaid at maturity $192.9 million of 5.5% Senior Notes due 2016 and did not pay $57.1 million of the notes held by a subsidiary of the Company. The $57.1 million of aggregate principal amount remains outstanding and is eliminated for purposes of consolidation of the Company's financial statements.

Our subsidiaries have from time to time repurchased certain debt obligations of iHeartCommunications and our equity securities and equity securities outstanding of CCOH, and may in the future, as part of various financing and investment strategies, purchase additional outstanding indebtedness of iHeartCommunications or its subsidiaries or our equity securities and equity securities outstanding of CCOH, in tender offers, open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. We or our subsidiaries may also sell certain assets, securities or properties. These purchases or sales, if any, could have a material positive or negative impact on our liquidity available to repay outstanding debt obligations or on our consolidated results of operations. These transactions could also require or result in amendments to the agreements governing outstanding debt obligations or changes in our leverage or other financial ratios, which could have a material positive or negative impact on our ability to comply with the covenants contained in iHeartCommunications' debt agreements. These transactions, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors. The amounts involved may be material.

Senior Secured Credit Facilities

The senior secured credit facilities require iHeartCommunications to comply on a quarterly basis with a financial covenant limiting the ratio of consolidated secured debt, net of cash and cash equivalents, to consolidated EBITDA (as defined by iHeartCommunications' senior secured credit facilities) for the preceding four quarters. iHeartCommunications' secured debt consists of the senior secured credit facilities, the receivables based credit facility, the priority guarantee notes and certain other secured subsidiary debt. As required by the definition of consolidated EBITDA in iHeartCommunications' senior secured credit facilities, iHeartCommunications' consolidated EBITDA for the preceding four quarters of $1.7 billion is calculated as operating income (loss) before depreciation, amortization, impairment charges and other operating income (expense), net plus share-based compensation and is further adjusted for the following items: (i) costs incurred in connection with the closure and/or consolidation of facilities, retention charges, consulting fees and other permitted activities; (ii) extraordinary, non-recurring or unusual gains or losses or expenses and severance; (iii) non-cash charges; (iv) cash received from nonconsolidated affiliates; and (v) various other items.

The following table reflects a reconciliation of consolidated EBITDA (as defined by iHeartCommunications' senior secured credit facilities) to operating income and net cash provided by operating activities for the four quarters ended June 30, 2017 :



	Four Quarters Ended
(In Millions)	June 30, 2017
Consolidated EBITDA (as defined by iHeartCommunications' senior secured credit facilities)	$	1,742.4
Less adjustments to consolidated EBITDA (as defined by iHeartCommunications' senior secured credit facilities):
Costs incurred in connection with the closure and/or consolidation of facilities, retention charges, consulting fees and other permitted activities	(45.7		)
Extraordinary, non-recurring or unusual gains or losses or expenses and severance (as referenced in the definition of consolidated EBITDA in iHeartCommunications' senior secured credit facilities)	(38.6		)
Non-cash charges	(15.9		)
Other items	70.9
Less: Depreciation and amortization, Impairment charges, Other operating income (expense), net and Share-based compensation expense	(457.1		)
Operating income	1,256.0
Plus: Depreciation and amortization, Impairment charges, Gain (loss) on disposal of operating and fixed assets, and Share-based compensation expense	447.1
Less: Interest expense	(1,838.5		)
Less: Current income tax expense	(45.6		)
Plus: Other income (expense), net	(46.8		)
Adjustments to reconcile consolidated net loss to net cash provided by operating activities (including Provision for doubtful accounts, Amortization of deferred financing charges and note discounts, net and Other reconciling items, net)	63.6
Change in assets and liabilities, net of assets acquired and liabilities assumed	(122.5		)
Net cash used for operating activities	$	(286.7	)

The maximum ratio permitted under this financial covenant was 8.75:1 for the four quarters ended June 30, 2017 . As of June 30, 2017 , our ratio was 7.5 :1.

In addition, the senior secured credit facilities include negative covenants that, subject to significant exceptions, limit iHeartCommunications' ability and the ability of its restricted subsidiaries to, among other things:

• incur additional indebtedness;

• create liens on assets;

• engage in mergers, consolidations, liquidations and dissolutions;

• sell assets;

• pay dividends and distributions or repurchase iHeartCommunications' capital stock;

• make investments, loans, or advances;

• prepay certain junior indebtedness;

• engage in certain transactions with affiliates;

• amend material agreements governing certain junior indebtedness; and

• change lines of business.

The senior secured credit facilities include certain customary representations and warranties, affirmative covenants and events of default, including payment defaults, breach of representations and warranties, covenant defaults, cross-defaults to certain indebtedness, certain events of bankruptcy, certain events under ERISA, material judgments, the invalidity of material provisions of the senior secured credit facilities documentation, the failure of collateral under the security documents for the senior secured credit facilities, the failure of the senior secured credit facilities to be senior debt under the subordination provisions of certain of iHeartCommunications' subordinated debt and a change of control. If an event of default occurs, the lenders under the senior secured credit facilities will be entitled to take various actions, including the acceleration of all amounts due under the senior secured credit facilities and all actions permitted to be taken by a secured creditor.

Disposals

In January 2017, we sold our Indianapolis, Indiana outdoor market in exchange for certain assets in Atlanta, Georgia, plus approximately $43.1 million in cash, net of closing costs. A net gain of $28.9 million was recognized related to the sale.

Uses of Capital

Debt Repayments, Maturities and Other

On February 7, 2017, iHeartCommunications completed an exchange offer of $234.9 million principal amount of iHeartCommunications' 10.0% Senior Notes due 2018 for $234.9 million principal amount of newly-issued 11.25% Priority Guarantee Notes due 2021, which were issued as “additional notes” under the indenture governing the 11.25% Priority Guarantee Notes due 2021.

On January 31, 2017, iHeartCommunications repaid $25.0 million of the amount borrowed under its receivables based credit facility, resulting in total outstanding borrowings under this facility of $305.0 million as of June 30, 2017 .

On July 10, 2017, iHeartCommunications exchanged $15.6 million principal amount of iHeartCommunications' 10.0% Senior Notes due 2018 that were held by an unaffiliated third party for $15.6 million principal amount of iHeartCommunications' 11.25% Priority Guarantee Notes due 2021 that were held by a subsidiary of iHeartCommunications .

Certain Relationships with the Sponsors

We are party to a management agreement with certain affiliates of the Sponsors and certain other parties pursuant to which such affiliates of the Sponsors will provide management and financial advisory services until 2018. These arrangements require management fees to be paid to such affiliates of the Sponsors for such services at a rate not greater than $15.0 million per year, plus reimbursable expenses. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 , the Company recognized management fees and reimbursable expenses of $3.8 million and $7.6 million , respectively, and $3.8 million and $7.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 , respectively.

CCOH Dividends

In connection with the cash management arrangements for CCOH, iHeartCommunications maintains an intercompany revolving promissory note payable by iHeartCommunications to CCOH (the “Note”), which consists of the net activities resulting from day-to-day cash management services provided by iHeartCommunications to CCOH. As of June 30, 2017 , the balance of the Note was $928.8 million , all of which is payable on demand. The Note is eliminated in consolidation in our consolidated financial statements.

The Note previously was the subject of litigation. Pursuant to the terms of the settlement of that litigation, CCOH’s board of directors established an intercompany note committee for the specific purpose of monitoring the Note. The intercompany note committee has the non-exclusive authority, pursuant to the terms of its charter, to demand payments under the Note under certain specified circumstances tied to the Company’s liquidity or the amount outstanding under the Note as long as CCOH makes a simultaneous dividend equal to the amount so demanded. If the specified circumstances tied to the Company’s liquidity occur, the intercompany note committee is authorized to demand repayment of up to the full principal amount of the Note, if it declares a simultaneous dividend to CCOH’s stockholders in the same amount. Based on the $928.8 million balance of the Note and the ownership of CCOH as of June 30, 2017, if the intercompany note committee were to demand repayment of the Note in full, we would be required to use cash to fund approximately $94.3 million, or 10.2% of the dividend, to be paid to the public stockholders of CCOH. We cannot assure you that we will have sufficient cash available to make such a payment if the liquidity trigger occurs.

During the fourth quarter of 2016, CCOH sold its outdoor business in Australia for cash proceeds of $195.7 million, net of cash retained by the purchaser and closing costs. As discussed above under "Recent Liquidity-Generating Transactions," on February 9, 2017, CCOH declared a special dividend of $282.5 million using a portion of the cash proceeds from the sales of certain non-strategic U.S. outdoor markets and of our Australia outdoor business. On February 23, 2017, we received 89.9% of

the dividend, or approximately $254.0 million, with the remaining 10.1%, or approximately $28.5 million, paid to public stockholders of CCOH.

Commitments, Contingencies and Guarantees

We are currently involved in certain legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business and, as required, have accrued our estimate of the probable costs for resolution of those claims for which the occurrence of loss is probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. These estimates have been developed in consultation with counsel and are based upon an analysis of potential results, assuming a combination of litigation and settlement strategies. It is possible, however, that future results of operations for any particular period could be materially affected by changes in our assumptions or the effectiveness of our strategies related to these proceedings. Please refer to “Legal Proceedings” in Part II, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

SEASONALITY

Typically, the iHM, Americas outdoor and International outdoor segments experience their lowest financial performance in the first quarter of the calendar year, with International outdoor historically experiencing a loss from operations in that period. Our International outdoor segment typically experiences its strongest performance in the second and fourth quarters of the calendar year. We expect this trend to continue in the future. In addition, the majority of interest payments made in relation to long-term debt are paid in the first and third quarters of each calendar year. Due to this seasonality and certain other factors, the results for the interim periods may not be indicative of results for the full year.

MARKET RISK

We are exposed to market risks arising from changes in market rates and prices, including movements in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and inflation.

Interest Rate Risk

A significant amount of our long-term debt bears interest at variable rates. Accordingly, our earnings will be affected by changes in interest rates. As of June 30, 2017 , approximately 32% of our aggregate principal amount of long-term debt bears interest at floating rates. Assuming the current level of borrowings and assuming a 50% change in LIBOR, it is estimated that our interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2017 would have changed by $15.6 million.

In the event of an adverse change in interest rates, management may take actions to mitigate our exposure. However, due to the uncertainty of the actions that would be taken and their possible effects, the preceding interest rate sensitivity analysis assumes no such actions. Further, the analysis does not consider the effects of the change in the level of overall economic activity that could exist in such an environment.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

We have operations in countries throughout the world. Foreign operations are measured in their local currencies. As a result, our financial results could be affected by factors such as changes in foreign currency exchange rates or weak economic conditions in the foreign markets in which we have operations. We believe we mitigate a small portion of our exposure to foreign currency fluctuations with a natural hedge through borrowings in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. Our foreign operations reported net income of $25.2 million and a net loss of $0.2 million for three and six months ended June 30, 2017 , respectively. We estimate a 10% increase in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to foreign currencies would have decreased our net income for the three months ended June 30, 2017 by $2.5 million and we estimate that our net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2017 would have decreased by $0.0 million. A 10% decrease in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to foreign currencies during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 would have increased our net income for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and increased our net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2017 by corresponding amounts.

This analysis does not consider the implications that such currency fluctuations could have on the overall economic activity that could exist in such an environment in the U.S. or the foreign countries or on the results of operations of these foreign entities.

Inflation

Inflation is a factor in the economies in which we do business and we continue to seek ways to mitigate its effect. Inflation has affected our performance in terms of higher costs for wages, salaries and equipment. Although the exact impact of inflation is indeterminable, we believe we have offset these higher costs by increasing the effective advertising rates of most of our broadcasting stations and outdoor display faces in our iHM, Americas outdoor and International outdoor operations.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a safe harbor for forward-looking statements made by us or on our behalf. Except for the historical information, this report contains various forward-looking statements which represent our expectations or beliefs concerning future events, including, without limitation, our future operating and financial performance, our liquidity, our ability to comply with the covenants in the agreements governing our indebtedness and the availability of capital and the terms thereof. Statements expressing expectations and projections with respect to future matters are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. We caution that these forward-looking statements involve a number of risks and uncertainties and are subject to many variables which could impact our future performance. These statements are made on the basis of management’s views and assumptions, as of the time the statements are made, regarding future events and performance. There can be no assurance, however, that management’s expectations will necessarily come to pass. Actual future events and performance may differ materially from the expectations reflected in our forward-looking statements. We do not intend, nor do we undertake any duty, to update any forward-looking statements.

A wide range of factors could materially affect future developments and performance, including but not limited to:


•	our ability to continue as a going concern;


•	the impact of our substantial indebtedness, including the effect of our leverage on our financial position and earnings;


•	our ability to generate sufficient cash from operations and liquidity-generating transactions and our need to allocate significant amounts of our cash to make payments on our indebtedness, which in turn could reduce our financial flexibility and ability to fund other activities;


•	risks associated with weak or uncertain global economic conditions and their impact on the capital markets;


•	other general economic and political conditions in the United States and in other countries in which we currently do business, including those resulting from recessions, political events and acts or threats of terrorism or military conflicts;


•	industry conditions, including competition;


•	the level of expenditures on advertising;


•	legislative or regulatory requirements;


•	fluctuations in operating costs;


•	technological changes and innovations;


•	changes in labor conditions, including programming, program hosts and management;


•	capital expenditure requirements;


•	risks of doing business in foreign countries;


•	fluctuations in exchange rates and currency values;


•	the outcome of pending and future litigation;


•	taxes and tax disputes;


•	changes in interest rates;


•	shifts in population and other demographics;


•	access to capital markets and borrowed indebtedness;


•	our ability to implement our business strategies;


•	the risk that we may not be able to integrate the operations of acquired businesses successfully;


•	the risk that our strategic revenue and efficiency initiatives may not be entirely successful or that any cost savings achieved from such strategic revenue and efficiency initiatives may not persist; and


•	certain other factors set forth in our other filings with the SEC.

This list of factors that may affect future performance and the accuracy of forward-looking statements is illustrative and is not intended to be exhaustive. Accordingly, all forward-looking statements should be evaluated with the understanding of their inherent uncertainty.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Required information is presented under “Market Risk” within Item 2 of this Part I.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

As required by Rule 13a-15(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, we have carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that are filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure and is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the SEC. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2017 at the reasonable assurance level.

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2017 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II -- OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We currently are involved in certain legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business and, as required, have accrued an estimate of the probable costs for the resolution of those claims for which the occurrence of loss is probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. These estimates have been developed in consultation with counsel and are based upon an analysis of potential results, assuming a combination of litigation and settlement strategies. It is possible, however, that future results of operations for any particular period could be materially affected by changes in our assumptions or the effectiveness of our strategies related to these proceedings. Additionally, due to the inherent uncertainty of litigation, there can be no assurance that the resolution of any particular claim or proceeding would not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

Although we are involved in a variety of legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business, a large portion of our litigation arises in the following contexts: commercial disputes; defamation matters; employment and benefits related claims; governmental fines; intellectual property claims; and tax disputes.

Stockholder Litigation

On May 9, 2016, a stockholder of Clear Channel Outdoor Holdings, Inc. ("CCOH") filed a derivative lawsuit in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, captioned GAMCO Asset Management Inc. v. iHeartMedia Inc. et al., C.A. No. 12312-VCS. The complaint names as defendants the Company, iHeartCommunications, Inc. ("iHeartCommunications"), an indirect subsidiary of the Company , Bain Capital Partners, LLC and Thomas H. Lee Partners, L.P. (together, the "Sponsor Defendants"), the Company's private equity sponsors and majority owners, and the members of CCOH's board of directors. CCOH also is named as a nominal defendant. The complaint alleges that CCOH has been harmed by the intercompany agreements with iHeartCommunications , CCOH’s lack of autonomy over its own cash and the actions of the defendants in serving the interests of the Company, iHeartCommunications and the Sponsor Defendants to the detriment of CCOH and its minority stockholders. Specifically, the complaint alleges that the defendants have breached their fiduciary duties by causing CCOH to: (i) continue to loan cash to iHeartCommunications under the intercompany note at below-market rates; (ii) abandon its growth and acquisition strategies in favor of transactions that would provide cash to the Company and iHeartCommunications ; (iii) issue new debt in the CCIBV note offering (the "CCIBV Note Offering") to provide cash to the Company and iHeartCommunications through a dividend; and (iv) effect the sales of certain outdoor markets in the U.S. (the "Outdoor Asset Sales") allegedly to provide cash to the Company and iHeartCommunications through a dividend. The complaint also alleges that the Company, iHeartCommunications and the Sponsor Defendants aided and abetted the directors' breaches of their fiduciary duties. The complaint further alleges that the Company, iHeartCommunications and the Sponsor Defendants were unjustly enriched as a result of these transactions and that these transactions constituted a waste of corporate assets for which the defendants are liable to CCOH. The plaintiff is seeking, among other things, a ruling that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties to CCOH and that the Company, iHeartCommunications and the Sponsor Defendants aided and abetted the CCOH board of directors' breaches of fiduciary duty, rescission of payments made by CCOH to iHeartCommunications and its affiliates pursuant to dividends declared in connection with the CCIBV Note Offering and Outdoor Asset Sales, and an order requiring the Company, iHeartCommunications and the Sponsor Defendants to disgorge all profits they have received as a result of the alleged fiduciary misconduct.

On July 20, 2016, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss plaintiff's verified stockholder derivative complaint for failure to state a claim upon which relief can be granted. On November 23, 2016, the Court granted defendants’ motion to dismiss all claims brought by the plaintiff. On December 19, 2016, the plaintiff filed a notice of appeal of the ruling. This appeal is pending before the Court.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

For information regarding our risk factors, please refer to Item 1A in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 (the "Annual Report") and our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. There have not been any material changes in the risk factors disclosed in our Annual Report and Quarterly Reports, except that we are updating the risk factor entitled "To

service our debt obligations and to fund our operations and our capital expenditures, we require a significant amount of cash to meet our needs, which depends on many factors beyond our control" as set forth below:

To service our debt obligations and to fund our operations and our capital expenditures, we require a significant amount of cash to meet our needs, which depends on many factors beyond our control, and management has determined that there is substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern for a period within 12 months following August 3, 2017 based on the uncertainty about these factors

To service our debt obligations and to fund our operations and our capital expenditures, we require a significant amount of cash. Our primary sources of liquidity are cash on hand, cash flow from operations, borrowing capacity under our receivables based credit facility, subject to certain limitations contained in iHeartCommunications' material financing agreements, and cash from liquidity-generating transactions. As of June 30, 2017 , we had $260.5 million of cash and cash equivalents on our balance sheet, including $163.1 million of cash and cash equivalents held by our subsidiary, CCOH. As of June 30, 2017 , we had a borrowing base of $491.4 million under iHeartCommunications' receivables based credit facility, had $305.0 million of outstanding borrowings and $42.3 million of outstanding letters of credit, resulting in $144.1 million of excess availability. However, any incremental borrowings under the receivables based credit facility may be further limited by the terms contained in iHeartCommunications' material financing agreements.

During the second quarter of 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern . This update provides U.S. GAAP guidance on management's responsibility in evaluating whether there is substantial doubt about a company's ability to continue as a going concern and about related footnote disclosures. We adopted this standard for the year ended December 31, 2016. Under this standard, we are required to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern each reporting period, including interim periods. In evaluating our ability to continue as a going concern, management considered the conditions and events that could raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for a period of 12 months following the date our financial statements were issued ( August 3, 2017 ). Management considered our current financial condition and liquidity sources, including current funds available, forecasted future cash flows and our conditional and unconditional obligations due before August 3, 2018 .

A substantial amount of our cash requirements are for debt service obligations. Our current forecast indicates we will continue to incur net losses and generate negative cash flows from operating activities as a result of our indebtedness and significant related interest expense. Our debt maturities in the next 12 months include $365.0 million outstanding under our receivables based credit facility, which matures on December 24, 2017, $96.5 million of 10% Senior Notes due January 15, 2018 and $175.0 million of 6.875% Senior Notes due June 15, 2018. Our forecast also includes approximately $1.8 billion in cash interest payments in the next 12 months, of which $549.9 million and $337.4 million of cash interest payment obligations for each of the quarters ending September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2017, respectively. If we are unable to refinance or extend the receivables based credit facility, the 10% Senior Notes due January 15, 2018, and/or the 6.875% Senior Notes due June 15, 2018 and take other steps to create additional liquidity, forecasted cash flows would not be sufficient for us to meet our obligations, including upcoming interest payments and maturities, as they become due in the ordinary course of business for a period of 12 months following August 3, 2017 . While we continue to work toward completing the notes exchange offers and the term loan offers, refinancing or extending the maturity of the receivables based credit facility on similar terms, and taking other actions to create additional liquidity, there is no assurance that the notes exchange offers and the term loan offers, which have been revised since launch and are subject to substantial further revision will be completed or that the receivables based credit facility will be refinanced or extended on similar terms. Our ability to meet our obligations as they become due in the ordinary course of business for the next 12 months will depend on our ability to achieve forecasted results, our ability to conserve cash, our ability to refinance or extend the maturity of iHeartCommunications' receivables based credit facility on similar terms, our ability to successfully complete the notes exchange offers and the term loan offers and achieve sufficient cash interest savings therefrom and our ability to complete other liquidity-generating transactions. Based on the significance of the forecasted future negative cash flows resulting from the Company's substantial debt balance, anticipated future interest payments (including interest due in the third and fourth quarters of 2017) and the maturities of the $365.0 million under iHeartCommunications' receivables based credit facility that matures December 24, 2017, the $96.5 million aggregate principal amount of 10% Senior Notes due January 15, 2018 and the $175.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.875% Senior Notes due June 15, 2018, management has determined that there is substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern for a period of 12 months following August 3, 2017 .

If we are unable to refinance or extend the maturity of the receivables based credit facility or complete the notes exchange offers and the term loan offers or realize sufficient cash interest savings as a result of those offers, or otherwise generate incremental liquidity, or if there are material adverse developments in our business results of operations or liquidity, we may be forced to further reduce or delay our business activities and capital expenditures, sell material assets, seek additional capital or be required

to file for bankruptcy court protection. We cannot assure you that we would be able to accomplish any of these alternatives on a timely basis or on satisfactory terms, if at all.
