Note 1. Description of Business and Basis of Presentation

Description of Business

OUTFRONT Media Inc. (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries (collectively, “we,” “us” or “our”) is a real estate investment trust (“REIT”), which provides advertising space (“displays”) on out-of-home advertising structures and sites in the United States (the “U.S.”) and Canada. Our inventory consists of billboard displays, which are primarily located on the most heavily traveled highways and roadways in top Nielsen Designated Market Areas (“DMAs”), and transit advertising displays operated under exclusive multi-year contracts with municipalities in large cities across the U.S. and Canada. We also have marketing and multimedia rights agreements with colleges, universities and other educational institutions, which entitle us to operate on-campus advertising displays, as well as manage marketing opportunities, media rights and experiential entertainment at sports events. In total, we have displays in all of the 25 largest markets in the U.S. and 140 markets across the U.S. and Canada. We manage our operations through three operating segments—(1) U.S. Billboard and Transit, which is included in our U.S. Media reportable segment, (2) International and (3) Sports Marketing.

Basis of Presentation and Use of Estimates

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). In the opinion of our management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal and recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. Certain reclassifications of prior year’s data have been made to conform to the current period’s presentation. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the more detailed financial statements and notes thereto, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 , filed with the SEC on February 28, 2018 .

The preparation of our financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Note 2. New Accounting Standards

Adoption of New Accounting Standards

Goodwill

In the second quarter of 2018, we early adopted the Financial Accounting Standard Board’s (the “FASB’s”) guidance simplifying the test for goodwill impairment by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Step 2 measures a goodwill impairment loss by comparing the implied fair value of a reporting unit’s goodwill with the carrying value of that goodwill. Applying the prospective method of adoption, we recognized an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying value of our Canadian reporting unit exceeded its fair value. The loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. In the second quarter of 2018, we recorded an impairment charge of $ 42.9 million on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and an impairment balance of $ 42.9 million in Goodwill on the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position related to our Canadian reporting unit. (See Note 4. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets to the Consolidated Financial Statements.)

Revenue from Contracts with Customers

In the first quarter of 2018, we adopted the FASB’s principles-based guidance addressing revenue recognition issues, applying the modified retrospective method of adoption. The guidance is being applied to all contracts with customers regardless of industry-specific or transaction-specific fact patterns. The guidance requires that the amount of revenue a company should recognize reflect the consideration it expects to be entitled to in exchange for goods and services. The revenue recognition

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

guidance is primarily applicable to our multi-year transit advertising contracts with municipalities in the U.S. and Canada, and marketing and multimedia rights agreements with colleges, universities and other educational institutions. Our billboard lease revenues are recognized under the lease accounting standard. The adoption of this guidance did not impact revenues from our multi-year transit advertising contracts, but resulted in the recognition of additional revenues of $ 2.0 million , additional operating expenses of $ 1.4 million and additional selling, general and administrative expenses of $ 0.6 million in our Sports Marketing operating segment in the three months ended June 30, 2018 , and additional revenues of $ 3.8 million , additional operating expenses of $ 2.6 million and additional selling, general and administrative expenses of $ 1.2 million in our Sports Marketing operating segment in the six months ended June 30, 2018 , related to revenues that would have been recognized on a net basis under the old standard. Adoption of this guidance did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements. (See Note 9. Revenues to the Consolidated Financial Statements.)

Recent Pronouncements

Leases

In February 2016 (updated in July 2018), the FASB issued guidance addressing the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both lessees and lessors. The new standard requires lessees to apply a dual approach, classifying leases as either finance or operating based on the principle of whether or not the lease is effectively a financed purchase by the lessee. This classification will determine whether lease expense is recognized based on an effective interest method or on a straight line basis over the term of the lease, respectively. A lessee is also required to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term greater than 12 months regardless of their classification. Leases with a term of 12 months or less will be accounted for similar to existing guidance for operating leases today. Lessors will account for leases using an approach that is substantially equivalent to existing guidance for sales-type leases, direct financing leases and operating leases. This guidance is to be applied on a modified retrospective basis and is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted for financial statements that have not been previously issued.

As of June 30, 2018 , we had approximately 21,200 lease agreements in the U.S. and approximately 3,000 lease agreements in Canada, the majority of which will be classified as operating leases under the new guidance. We are currently evaluating our lease contracts and are in the process of implementing a new lease software system which will enable us to comply with this standard. This standard will require us to recognize a right-of-use asset and lease liability for the present value of minimum lease payments for operating leases with a term greater than 12 months and will have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements. Our billboard lease revenues will continue to be recognized on a straight-line basis over their respective lease terms.

(a)	Non-tax deductible addition associated with the Transaction (as defined below, see Note 8. Equity and Note 11. Acquisitions to the Consolidated Financial Statements).

On April 1, 2018, we early adopted the FASB’s guidance simplifying the test for goodwill impairment by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. (See Note 2. New Accounting Standards to the Consolidated Financial Statements.) If the carrying value of goodwill exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss is recognized as a non-cash charge not to exceed the goodwill balance allocated to that reporting unit.

Goodwill is not amortized but is tested at the reporting-unit level annually for impairment and between annual tests if events occur or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value below its carrying value. We compute the estimated fair value of each reporting unit by adding the present value of the estimated annual cash flows over a discrete projection period to the residual value of the business at the end of the projection period. This technique requires us to use significant estimates and assumptions such as growth rates, operating margins, capital expenditures and discount rates. The estimated growth rates, operating margins and capital expenditures for the projection period are based on our internal forecasts of future performance as well as historical trends. The residual value is estimated based on a perpetual nominal growth rate, which is based on projected long-range inflation and long-term industry projections. The discount rates are determined based on the weighted average cost of capital of comparable entities. There can be no assurance that these estimates and assumptions will prove to be an accurate prediction of the future, and a downward revision of these estimates and/or assumptions would decrease the fair values of our reporting units, which could result in additional impairment charges in the future.

The estimated fair value of the Canadian reporting unit exceeded its carrying value by 2.9 % as of December 31, 2017, based on our goodwill impairment assessment in the prior year. In the second quarter of 2018, our Canadian reporting unit did not meet revenue expectations and pacing reflected a decline as compared to the 2018 forecast due to the underperformance of our static poster assets and digital displays. As a result, we determined that there was a decline in the outlook for our Canadian reporting unit. This determination constituted a triggering event, requiring an interim goodwill impairment analysis of our Canadian reporting unit.

As a result of the impairment analysis performed during the second quarter of 2018, we determined that the carrying value of our Canadian reporting unit exceeded its fair value and we recorded an impairment charge of $ 42.9 million in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. As of June 30, 2018 , goodwill related to our Canadian reporting unit, net of accumulated impairment of $ 42.9 million , was $ 21.7 million . As of December 31, 2017, goodwill associated with our Canadian reporting unit was $ 68.1 million .

Other Intangible Assets

Our identifiable intangible assets primarily consist of acquired permits and leasehold agreements and franchise agreements which grant us the right to operate out-of-home structures in specified locations and the right to provide advertising space on railroad and municipal transit properties. Identifiable intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful life, which is the respective life of the agreement that in some cases includes historical experience of renewals.

Accounts Receivable Securitization Facility

As of June 30, 2018 , there were $ 100.0 million of outstanding borrowings under our $ 100.0 million revolving accounts receivable securitization facility (the “AR Facility”), which expires in 2020, at a borrowing rate of approximately 3.1 % . As of June 30, 2018 , we had no borrowing capacity remaining under the AR Facility, based on approximately $ 189.2 million of eligible accounts receivables used as collateral for the AR Facility, in accordance with the agreement governing the AR Facility. The commitment fee based on the amount of unused commitments under the AR Facility was immaterial for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 . As of August 8, 2018 , there were $ 90.0 million of outstanding borrowings under the AR Facility at a borrowing rate of approximately 3.1 % .

In connection with the AR Facility, Outfront Media LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, will sell and/or contribute its existing and future accounts receivable and certain related assets to Outfront Media Receivables LLC, a special purpose vehicle and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the “SPV”). The SPV is a separate legal entity with its own separate creditors who will be entitled to access the SPV’s assets before the assets become available to the Company. Accordingly, the SPV’s assets are not available to pay creditors of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, although collections from the receivables in excess of amounts required to repay the Purchasers and other creditors of the SPV may be remitted to the Company.

Senior Unsecured Notes

As of June 30, 2018 , a discount of $ 0.4 million on $ 150.0 million aggregate principal amount of the 5.250 % Senior Unsecured Notes due 2022, remains unamortized. The discount is being amortized through Interest expense, net, on the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

As of June 30, 2018 , a premium of $ 2.4 million on $ 100.0 million aggregate principal amount of the 5.625 % Senior Unsecured Notes due 2024, remains unamortized. The premium is being amortized through Interest expense, net , on the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

Debt Covenants

Our credit agreement, dated as of January 31, 2014 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified, the “Credit Agreement”), governing the Senior Credit Facilities, the agreements governing the AR Facility, and the indentures governing our senior unsecured notes contain customary affirmative and negative covenants, subject to certain exceptions, including but not limited to those that limit the Company’s and our subsidiaries’ abilities to (i) pay dividends on, repurchase or make distributions in respect to the Company’s or its wholly-owned subsidiary, Outfront Media Capital LLC’s (“Finance LLC’s”) capital stock or make other restricted payments other than dividends or distributions necessary for us to maintain our REIT status, subject to certain conditions, and (ii) enter into agreements restricting certain subsidiaries’ ability to pay dividends or make other intercompany third party transfers.

The terms of the Credit Agreement (and under certain circumstances, the agreements governing the AR Facility) require that we maintain a Consolidated Net Secured Leverage Ratio, which is the ratio of (i) our consolidated secured debt (less up to $150.0 million of unrestricted cash) to (ii) our Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Agreement) for the trailing four consecutive quarters, of no greater than 4.0 to 1.0. As of June 30, 2018 , our Consolidated Net Secured Leverage Ratio was 1.5 to 1.0 in accordance with the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement also requires that, in connection with the incurrence of certain indebtedness, we satisfy a Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio, which is the ratio of our consolidated total debt to our Consolidated EBITDA for the trailing four consecutive quarters, of no greater than 6.0 to 1.0. As of June 30, 2018 , our Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio was 4.9 to 1.0 in accordance with the Credit Agreement. As of June 30, 2018 , we are in compliance with our debt covenants.

Deferred Financing Costs

As of June 30, 2018 , we had deferred $ 26.8 million in fees and expenses associated with the Term Loan, Revolving Credit Facility, AR Facility and our senior unsecured notes.

Fair Value

Under the fair value hierarchy, observable inputs such as unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities are defined as Level 1; observable inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are either directly or indirectly observable for the asset or liability are defined as Level 2; and unobservable inputs for the asset or liability are defined as Level 3. The aggregate fair value of our debt, which is estimated based on quoted market prices of similar liabilities, was approximately $ 2.4 billion as of June 30, 2018 , and $ 2.3 billion as of December 31, 2017 . The fair value of our debt as of both June 30, 2018 , and December 31, 2017, is classified as Level 2.

Note 8. Equity

As of June 30, 2018 , 450,000,000 shares of our common stock, par value $ 0.01 per share, were authorized; 139,256,951 shares were issued and outstanding; and 50,000,000 shares of our preferred stock, par value $ 0.01 per share, were authorized with no shares issued and outstanding.

On June 13, 2017, certain subsidiaries of OUTFRONT Media Inc. acquired the equity interests of certain subsidiaries of All Vision LLC (“All Vision”), which hold substantially all of All Vision’s outdoor advertising assets in Canada, and effectuated an amalgamation of All Vision’s Canadian business with our Canadian business (the “Transaction”) (see Note 11. Acquisitions ). In connection with the Transaction, the Company issued 1,953,407 shares of Class A equity interests of a subsidiary of the Company that controls its Canadian business (“Outfront Canada”).

The Class A equity interests are entitled to receive priority cash distributions from Outfront Canada at the same time and in the same per share amount as the dividends paid on shares of the Company’s common stock. The Class A equity interests may be redeemed by the holders in exchange for shares of the Company’s common stock on a one-for-one basis (subject to anti-dilution adjustments) or, at the Company’s option, cash equal to the then fair market value of the shares of the Company’s common stock commencing (i) one year after closing, with respect to 55% of the Class A equity interests, and (ii) 18 months after closing, with respect to the remaining 45% of the Class A equity interests. In connection with the Transaction, the Company has agreed to limitations on its ability to sell or otherwise dispose of the assets acquired from All Vision for a period of five years, unless it pays holders of the Class A equity interests in Outfront Canada an amount intended to approximate their resulting tax liability . During the six months ended June 30, 2018 , we made distributions of $ 1.4 million to holders of the Class A equity interests, which are recorded in Dividends on our Consolidated Statements of Equity and Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. As of June 30, 2018 , no Class A equity interests have been redeemed for shares of the Company’s common stock.

On November 21, 2017, we entered into a sales agreement in connection with an “at-the-market” equity offering program (the “ATM Program”), under which we may, from time to time, issue and sell shares of our common stock up to an aggregate offering price of $ 300.0 million . We have no obligation to sell any of our common stock under the sales agreement and may at any time suspend solicitations and offers under the sales agreement. As of August 8, 2018 , no shares of our common stock have been sold under the ATM Program, and accordingly, as of August 8, 2018 , $ 300.0 million remained available to be sold under the sales agreement.

On July 24, 2018 , we announced that our board of directors approved a quarterly cash dividend of $ 0.36 per share on our common stock, payable on September 28, 2018 , to stockholders of record at the close of business on September 7, 2018 .

Note 9. Revenues

Effective January 1, 2018, we adopted the FASB’s principles-based guidance addressing revenue recognition issues, applying the modified retrospective method of adoption. Accordingly, historical financial information has not been affected (see Note 2. New Accounting Standards to the Consolidated Financial Statements).

We derive Revenues from the following sources: (i) billboard displays, (ii) transit displays, and (iii) other.

Billboard display revenues are derived from providing advertising space to customers on our physical billboards or other outdoor structures. We generally (i) own the physical structures on which we display advertising copy for our customers, (ii) hold the legal permits to display advertising thereon, and (iii) lease the underlying sites. Billboard display revenues are recognized under the lease accounting standard as rental income on a straight-line basis over the customer lease term.

Transit display revenues are derived from agreements with municipalities and transit operators, which entitle us to operate advertising displays within their transit systems, including on the interior and exterior of rail and subway cars and buses, as well as on benches, transit shelters, street kiosks and transit platforms. Transit display contracts typically require the installation and delivery of multiple advertising displays, for which locations are not specifically identified. Installation services are highly interdependent with the provision of advertising space, and therefore the installation and display of advertising is recognized as a single performance obligation. Transit display revenues are recognized based on the level of units displayed in proportion to the total units to be displayed over the contract period.

Other revenues are derived primarily from (i) the production of advertisements to be displayed on our billboards or other outdoor sites, or on displays that we operate within transit systems, and (ii) revenues from marketing and multimedia rights agreements with colleges, universities and other educational institutions, which entitle us to operate on-campus advertising displays, as well as manage marketing opportunities, media rights and experiential entertainment at sports events. Production services are not interrelated with the provision of advertising space and are considered a distinct performance obligation. Production revenue is recognized over the production period, which is typically very short in duration. Revenues from our Sports Marketing operating segment are principally derived from advertising and marketing arrangements and are recognized over the contract period.

Our billboard display and transit display contracts with customers range from four weeks to one year and billing commences at the beginning of the contract term, with payment generally due within 30 days of billing. For the majority of our contracts, transaction prices are explicitly stated. Any contracts with transaction prices that contain multiple performance obligations, are allocated primarily based on the residual approach, as we sell our services at a broad range of amounts depending on seasonality, the packaging of various advertising displays within a contract, and other economic factors.

We do not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for contracts with an original expected term of one year or less, which primarily represent the transaction price allocated to the remaining display period for unsatisfied transit franchise contracts. Unsatisfied performance obligations with an original expected term of over one year relate to multi-year marketing and multimedia rights agreements with customers of our Sports Marketing operating segment, the value of which is $ 59.1 million as of June 30, 2018 , are expected to be satisfied over the next 5 years .

For all revenue sources, we evaluate whether we should be considered the principal (i.e., report revenues on a gross basis) or an agent (i.e., report revenues on a net basis). Except for an insignificant number of smaller sports marketing contracts, we are considered the principal in our arrangements and report revenues on a gross basis, wherein the amounts billed to customers are recorded as revenues, and amounts paid to municipalities, transit operators, educational institutions and suppliers are recorded as expenses. We are considered the principal because we control the advertising space and multi-media rights before and after the contract term, are primarily responsible to our customers, have discretion in pricing and typically have inventory risk.

For space provided to advertisers through the use of an advertising agency whose commission is calculated based on a stated percentage of gross advertising spending, our Revenues are reported net of agency commissions.

Contract Costs and Balances

Variable sales commission costs directly associated with billboard display revenues are considered direct lease acquisition costs in accordance with the lease accounting standard and are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over the related customer lease term (see Note 4. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets to the Consolidated Financial Statements). Amortization of direct lease acquisition costs is presented within Amortization expense in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Variable sales commission costs which are directly associated with transit display and other revenues are included in Selling, general, and administrative expenses on the Consolidated Statement of Operations, and are expensed as incurred since the amortization period of the asset would have been less than one year.

As of June 30, 2018 , $ 2.8 million in restructuring reserves remain outstanding and is included in Other current liabilities on the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.

Note 11. Acquisitions

In connection with the Transaction, the Company paid approximately $ 94.4 million for the assets, comprised of $ 50.0 million in cash and $ 44.4 million , or 1,953,407 shares, of Class A equity interests of Outfront Canada, subject to post-closing adjustments (upward or downward) for closing date working capital and indebtedness, and for the achievement of certain operating income before depreciation and amortization targets relating to the acquired assets in 2017 and 2018. The issued Class A equity interests of Outfront Canada are redeemable non-controlling interests and are included in Non-controlling interests on our Consolidated Statement of Financial Position based on actual foreign currency exchange rates on the closing date of the Transaction compared to the negotiated foreign currency exchange rate used in the valuation described above.

The allocation of the purchase price of approximately $ 94.4 million is based on management’s estimate of the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed on the closing date of the Transaction, which was $ 68.0 million of identified intangible assets, $ 34.3 million of goodwill, $ 17.0 million of deferred tax liabilities and $ 9.1 million of other assets and liabilities (primarily property and equipment).

We completed several acquisitions for a total purchase price of approximately $ 4.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2018 , and including the Transaction, $ 102.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2017 .

In the second quarter of 2018, we entered into an agreement to acquire 14 digital and 7 static billboard displays in California for a total estimated purchase price of $ 35.4 million , subject to post-closing adjustments for the achievement of operating income before depreciation and amortization targets relating to the acquired displays.

Net periodic pension cost	$	0.5		$	0.4		$	0.9		$	0.8


(a)	Reflects amounts reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income to net income.

In the six months ended June 30, 2018 , we contributed $ 1.1 million to our pension plans. In 2018 , we expect to contribute approximately $ 2.5 million to our pension plans.

Note 14. Income Taxes

We are organized in conformity with the requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) and, accordingly, we have not provided for U.S. federal income tax on our REIT taxable income that we distribute to our stockholders. We have elected to treat our subsidiaries that participate in certain non-REIT qualifying activities, and our foreign subsidiaries, as taxable REIT subsidiaries (“TRSs”). As such, we have provided for their federal, state and foreign income taxes.

On December 22, 2017, the President of the United States signed into law the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”). The Tax Act amends the Code to reduce tax rates and modify policies, credits and deductions. The Tax Act reduced the federal tax rate from a maximum of 35 % to a flat 21 % rate, as well as added many new provisions including changes to bonus depreciation, the deduction for executive compensation and interest expense. From an international tax perspective, a tax on global intangible low-taxed income and a base erosion anti-abuse tax were added.

Tax years 2014 to present are open for examination by the tax authorities. We are currently under examination by the Internal Revenue Service for the 2016 tax year and by New York State for the 2014 - 2016 tax years. New York City has completed its audit of the 2014 tax year with no changes.

Our effective income tax rate represents a combined annual effective tax rate for federal, state, local and foreign taxes applied to interim operating results.

In the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, our effective tax rate differed from the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate primarily due to our REIT status, including the dividends paid deduction, the impact of state and local taxes, and the effect of foreign operations.

Note 16. Commitments and Contingencies

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Our off-balance sheet commitments primarily consist of operating lease arrangements and guaranteed minimum annual payments. These arrangements result from our normal course of business and represent obligations that are payable over several years.

Contractual Obligations

We have long-term operating leases for office space, billboard sites and equipment, which expire at various dates. Certain leases contain renewal and escalation clauses.

We have agreements with municipalities and transit operators which entitle us to operate advertising displays within their transit systems, including on the interior and exterior of rail and subway cars and buses, as well as on benches, transit shelters, street kiosks, and transit platforms. Under most of these franchise agreements, the franchisor is entitled to receive the greater of a percentage of the relevant revenues, net of agency fees, or a specified guaranteed minimum annual payment.

We also have marketing and multimedia rights agreements with colleges, universities and other educational institutions, which entitle us to operate on-campus advertising displays, as well as manage marketing opportunities, media rights and experiential entertainment at sports events. Under most of these agreements, the school is entitled to receive the greater of a percentage of the relevant revenue, net of agency commissions, or a specified guaranteed minimum annual payment.

On December 8, 2017, we entered into a transit advertising and communications concession agreement with the New York Metropolitan Transportation Authority (the “MTA”) for subway, commuter rail and buses for a 10 -year term, with an additional 5 -year extension at our option. Under the agreement, we are obligated to deploy over 50,000 digital displays for advertising and MTA communications across the transit system over a number of years and the MTA is entitled to receive the greater of a percentage of revenues or a guaranteed minimum annual payment. Incremental revenues that exceed an annual base revenue amount will be retained by us for the cost of deploying advertising and communications screens throughout the transit system. Our currently estimated deployment cost is approximately $ 800 million for the full 15-year term and approximately $ 600 million for the first eight years of the term, and these deployment costs will be recorded as Prepaid MTA equipment deployment costs and Intangible assets on our Consolidated Statement of Financial Position. We expect to utilize third party financing to

fund deployment costs, and have increased our letters of credit for the benefit of the MTA from approximately $ 30.0 million to $ 136.0 million , which is subject to change as equipment installations are completed and revenues are generated.

During the six months ended June 30, 2018 , several transit franchise contracts were renewed and/or awarded, resulting in additional guaranteed minimum annual payments. As of June 30, 2018 , guaranteed minimum annual payments are as follows:



(in millions)	Guaranteed Minimum Annual Payments
2018	$	109.3
2019	183.9
2020	164.1
2021	161.7
2022	159.6
2023 and thereafter	827.5
Total minimum payments	$	1,606.1

Letters of Credit

We have indemnification obligations with respect to letters of credit and surety bonds primarily used as security against non-performance in the normal course of business. As of June 30, 2018 , the outstanding letters of credit were approximately $ 195.9 million and outstanding surety bonds were approximately $ 25.1 million , and were not recorded on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position.

Legal Matters

On an ongoing basis, we are engaged in lawsuits and governmental proceedings and respond to various investigations, inquiries, notices and claims from national, state and local governmental and other authorities (collectively, “litigation”). Litigation is inherently uncertain and always difficult to predict. Although it is not possible to predict with certainty the eventual outcome of any litigation, in our opinion, none of our current litigation is expected to have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

Note 17. Segment Information

We manage our operations through three operating segments—(1) U.S. Billboard and Transit, which is included in our U.S. Media reportable segment, (2) International and (3) Sports Marketing. International and Sports Marketing do not meet the criteria to be a reportable segment and accordingly, are both included in Other .

The following tables set forth our financial performance by segment.

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

The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) should be read in conjunction with our historical consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto appearing in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 , filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 28, 2018 , and the unaudited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. This MD&A contains forward-looking statements that involve numerous risks and uncertainties. The forward-looking statements are subject to a number of important factors, including, but not limited to, those factors discussed in the sections entitled “Risk Factors” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 , filed with the SEC on February 28, 2018 , and the section entitled “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, that could cause our actual results to differ materially from the results described herein or implied by such forward-looking statements . Except as otherwise indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, all references in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to (i) “OUTFRONT Media,” “the Company,” “we,” “our,” “us” and “our company” mean OUTFRONT Media Inc., a Maryland corporation, and unless the context requires otherwise, its consolidated subsidiaries, and (ii) the “ 25 largest markets in the U.S.,” “ 140 markets in the U.S. and Canada” and “Nielsen Designated Market Areas” are based, in whole or in part, on Nielsen Media Research’s Designated Market Area rankings as of January 1, 2018.

Overview

OUTFRONT Media is a real estate investment trust (“REIT”), which provides advertising space (“displays”) on out-of-home advertising structures and sites in the United States (the “U.S.”) and Canada. We manage our operations through three operating segments—(1) U.S. Billboard and Transit, which is included in our U.S. Media reportable segment, (2) International and (3) Sports Marketing. International and Sports Marketing do not meet the criteria to be a reportable segment and accordingly, are both included in Other (see Note 17. Segment Information to the Consolidated Financial Statements).

Business

We are one of the largest providers of advertising space on out-of-home advertising structures and sites across the U.S. and Canada. Our inventory consists of billboard displays, which are primarily located on the most heavily traveled highways and roadways in top Nielsen Designated Market Areas (“DMAs”), and transit advertising displays operated under exclusive multi-year contracts with municipalities in large cities across the U.S. and Canada. We also have marketing and multimedia rights agreements with colleges, universities and other educational institutions, which entitle us to operate on-campus advertising displays, as well as manage marketing opportunities, media rights and experiential entertainment at sports events. In total, we have displays in all of the 25 largest markets in the U.S. and 140 markets in the U.S. and Canada. Our top market, high profile location focused portfolio includes sites such as the Bay Bridge in San Francisco, various locations along Sunset Boulevard in Los Angeles, and sites in and around both Grand Central Station and Times Square in New York. The breadth and depth of our portfolio provides our customers with a range of options to address their marketing objectives, from national, brand-building campaigns to hyper-local campaigns that drive customers to the advertiser’s website or retail location “one mile down the road.”

Using Geopath, the out-of-home advertising industry’s audience measurement system, we provide advertisers with the size and demographic composition of the audience that is exposed to individual displays or a complete campaign. As part of our ON Smart Media platform, we are developing hardware and software solutions for enhanced demographic and location targeting, and engaging ways to connect with consumers on-the-go. Additionally, our OUTFRONT Mobile Network allows our customers to further leverage location targeting with interactive mobile advertising that uses geofence technology to push mobile ads to consumers within a pre-defined radius around a corresponding billboard display or other designated advertising location.

We believe out-of-home advertising continues to be an attractive form of advertising, as our displays are ALWAYS ON™, are always viewable and cannot be turned off, skipped, blocked or fast-forwarded. Further, out-of-home advertising can be an effective “stand-alone” medium, as well as an integral part of a campaign to reach audiences using multiple forms of media, including television, radio, print, online, mobile and social media advertising platforms. We provide our customers with a differentiated advertising solution at an attractive price point relative to other forms of advertising. In addition to leasing displays, we provide other value-added services to our customers, such as pre-campaign category research, consumer insights, creative design support, print production and post-campaign tracking and analytics, as well as use of a real-time mobile operations reporting system that facilitates proof of performance to customers for substantially all of our business.

In the three months ended June 30, 2017 , our U.S. Media segment generated $367.1 million of Revenues and $128.3 million of Adjusted OIBDA. In the six months ended June 30, 2018 , our U.S. Media segment generated $677.1 million of Revenues and $220.1 million of Adjusted OIBDA. In the six months ended June 30, 2017 , our U.S. Media segment generated $674.2 million of Revenues and $220.7 million of Adjusted OIBDA. (See the “Segment Results of Operations” section of this MD&A.)

In the six months ended June 30, 2017 , Other generated $52.6 million of Revenues and $2.9 million of Adjusted OIBDA.

Economic Environment

Our revenues and operating results are sensitive to fluctuations in advertising expenditures, general economic conditions and other external events beyond our control.

Business Environment

The outdoor advertising industry is fragmented, consisting of several companies operating on a national basis, as well as hundreds of smaller regional and local companies operating a limited number of displays in a single or a few local geographic markets. We compete with these companies for both customers and structure and display locations. We also compete with other media, including online, mobile and social media advertising platforms (such as Facebook, Alphabet and Amazon) and traditional advertising platforms (such as television, radio, print and direct mail marketers). In addition, we compete with a wide variety of out-of-home media, including advertising in shopping centers, airports, movie theaters, supermarkets and taxis.

Increasing the number of digital displays in our most heavily trafficked locations is an important element of our organic growth strategy, as digital displays have the potential to attract additional business from both new and existing customers. We believe digital displays are attractive to our customers because they allow for the development of richer and more visually engaging messages, provide our customers with the flexibility both to target audiences by time of day and to quickly launch new advertising campaigns, and eliminate or greatly reduce print production costs. In addition, digital displays enable us to run multiple advertisements on each display. Digital billboard displays generate approximately four times more revenue per display on average than traditional static billboard displays. Digital billboard displays also incur, on average, approximately two to four times more costs, including higher variable costs associated with the increase in revenue than traditional static billboard displays. As a result, digital billboard displays generate higher profits and cash flows than traditional static billboard displays. The majority of our digital billboard displays were converted from traditional static billboard displays.

In 2017, we commenced deployment of state-of-the-art digital transit displays in connection with several transit franchises and are planning to increase deployments significantly over the coming years. Once the digital transit displays have been deployed at scale, we expect that revenue generated on digital transit displays will be a multiple of the revenue generated on comparable static transit displays. We intend to incur significant equipment deployment costs and capital expenditures in the coming years to continue increasing the number of digital displays in our portfolio.

We have built or converted 29 new digital billboard displays in the United States and 21 in Canada during the six months ended June 30, 2018 . Additionally, in the six months ended June 30, 2018 , we entered into marketing arrangements to sell advertising on 16 digital billboard displays in the U.S. In the six months ended June 30, 2018 , we have built, converted or replaced 239 digital transit and other displays in the United States. The following table sets forth information regarding our digital displays.

Total	$	95.2	$	24.3	$	119.5	1,043	1,481	2,524	100	%

(a)

Digital revenue and digital display amounts (1) include revenues and displays reserved for transit agency use and (2) exclude: (i) all revenues and displays under our multimedia rights agreements with colleges, universities and other educational institutions; and (ii) 1,649 MetroCard vending machine digital screens. Our number of digital displays is impacted by acquisitions, dispositions, management agreements, the net effect of new and lost billboards, and the net effect of won and lost franchises in the period.

Our revenues and profits may fluctuate due to seasonal advertising patterns and influences on advertising markets. Typically, our revenues and profits are highest in the fourth quarter, during the holiday shopping season, and lowest in the first quarter, as advertisers cut back on spending following the holiday shopping season.

We have a diversified base of customers across various industries. During the three months ended June 30, 2018 , our largest categories of advertisers were retail , computers/internet and professional services , which represented approximately 9% , 8% and 7% of our total U.S. Media segment revenues, respectively. During the three months ended June 30, 2017 , our largest categories of advertisers were retail , healthcare/pharmaceuticals and computers/internet , which represented approximately 9% , 7% and 7% of our total U.S. Media segment revenues, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2018 , our largest categories of advertisers were retail , computers/internet and healthcare/pharmaceuticals , which represented approximately 8% , 8% and 7% of our total U.S. Media segment revenues, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2017 , our largest categories of advertisers were retail , healthcare/pharmaceuticals and computers/internet , each of which represented approximately 8% of our total U.S. Media segment revenues, respectively.

Our large-scale portfolio allows our customers to reach a national audience and also provides the flexibility to tailor campaigns to specific regions or markets. In the three months ended June 30, 2018 we generated approximately 43% of our U.S. Media segment revenues from national advertising campaigns compared to approximately 44% in the same prior-year period. In the six months ended June 30, 2018 , we generated approximately 42% of our U.S. Media segment revenues from national advertising campaigns compared to approximately 44% in the same prior-year period.

Our transit business requires us to obtain and renew contracts with municipalities and other governmental entities. When these contracts expire, we generally must participate in highly competitive bidding processes in order to obtain or renew contracts.

Key Performance Indicators

Our management reviews our performance by focusing on the indicators described below.

Several of our key performance indicators are not prepared in conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”). We believe these non-GAAP performance indicators are meaningful supplemental measures of our operating performance and should not be considered in isolation of, or as a substitute for, their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.

(a)

Organic revenues exclude revenues associated with a significant acquisition, the impact of a new accounting standard (See Note 2. New Accounting Standards to the Consolidated Financial Statements) and the impact of foreign currency exchange rates (“non-organic revenues”). We provide organic revenues to understand the underlying growth rate of revenue excluding the impact of non-organic revenue items. Our management believes organic revenues are useful to users of our financial data because it enables them to better understand the level of growth of our business period to period. Since organic revenues are not calculated in accordance with GAAP, it should not be considered in isolation of, or as a substitute for, revenues as an indicator of operating performance. Organic revenues, as we calculate it, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies.


(b)	See the “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” and “Revenues” sections of this MD&A for reconciliations of Operating income to Adjusted OIBDA, Net income to FFO and AFFO and Revenues to organic revenues.

Adjusted OIBDA

We calculate Adjusted OIBDA as operating income (loss) before depreciation, amortization, net (gain) loss on dispositions, stock-based compensation, restructuring charges and impairment charges. We calculate Adjusted OIBDA margin by dividing Adjusted OIBDA by total revenues. Adjusted OIBDA and Adjusted OIBDA margin are among the primary measures we use for managing our business, evaluating our operating performance and planning and forecasting future periods, as each is an important indicator of our operational strength and business performance. Our management believes users of our financial data are best served if the information that is made available to them allows them to align their analysis and evaluation of our operating results along the same lines that our management uses in managing, planning and executing our business strategy. Our management also believes that the presentations of Adjusted OIBDA and Adjusted OIBDA margin, as supplemental measures, are useful in evaluating our business because eliminating certain non-comparable items highlight operational trends in our business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on GAAP financial measures. It is management’s opinion that these supplemental measures provide users of our financial data with an important perspective on our operating performance and also make it easier for users of our financial data to compare our results with other companies that have different financing and capital structures or tax rates.

FFO and AFFO

We calculate FFO in accordance with the definition established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”). FFO reflects net income (loss) adjusted to exclude gains and losses from the sale of real estate assets, impairment charges, depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, amortization of direct lease acquisition costs and the same adjustments for our equity-based investments, as well as the related income tax effect of adjustments, as applicable. We calculate AFFO as FFO adjusted to include cash paid for direct lease acquisition costs as such costs are generally amortized over a period ranging from four weeks to one year and therefore are incurred on a regular basis. AFFO also includes cash paid for maintenance capital expenditures since these are routine uses of cash that are necessary for our operations. In addition, AFFO excludes costs related to restructuring charges, as well as certain non-cash items, including non-real estate depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense, accretion expense, the non-cash effect of straight-line rent and amortization of deferred financing costs, and the non-cash portion of income taxes, as well as the related income tax effect of adjustments, as applicable. We use FFO and AFFO measures for managing our business and for planning and forecasting future periods, and each is an important indicator of our operational strength and business performance, especially compared to other REITs. Our management believes users of our financial data are best served if the information that is made available to them allows them to align their analysis and evaluation of our operating results along the same lines that our management uses in managing, planning and executing our business strategy. Our management also believes that the presentations of FFO, AFFO, and related per weighted average share amounts, as supplemental measures, are useful in evaluating our business because adjusting results to reflect items that have more bearing on the operating performance of REITs highlight trends in our business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on GAAP financial measures. It is management’s opinion that these

supplemental measures provide users of our financial data with an important perspective on our operating performance and also make it easier to compare our results to other companies in our industry, as well as to REITs.

Since Adjusted OIBDA, Adjusted OIBDA margin, FFO and AFFO and, as applicable, related per weighted average share amounts, are not measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, they should not be considered in isolation of, or as a substitute for, operating income (loss), net income (loss), revenues and net income (loss) per common share for diluted earnings per share, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, as indicators of operating performance. These measures, as we calculate them, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies. In addition, these measures do not necessarily represent funds available for discretionary use and are not necessarily a measure of our ability to fund our cash needs.

FFO in the three months ended June 30, 2018 , of $74.1 million decreased $5.6 million , or 7% , compared to the same prior-year period, primarily due to a net loss as a result of an impairment charge in the three months ended June 30, 2018 , and lower depreciation and amortization. AFFO in the three months ended June 30, 2018 , of $77.2 million decreased $0.9 million , or 1% , compared to the same prior-year period, primarily due to lower restructuring charges. FFO in the six months ended June 30, 2018 , of $119.4 million decreased $4.2 million , or 3% , compared to the same prior-year period, primarily due to lower net income as a result of an impairment charge and lower depreciation and amortization.

Analysis of Results of Operations

Revenues

We derive Revenues primarily from providing advertising space to customers on our advertising structures and sites. Our contracts with customers generally cover periods ranging from four weeks to one year. Revenues from billboard displays are recognized as rental income on a straight-line basis over the contract term. Transit and other revenues are recognized over the contract period. (See Note 9. Revenues to the Consolidated Financial Statements.)

(a)

Revenues on a constant dollar basis are calculated as reported revenues excluding the impact of foreign currency exchange rates between periods. We provide constant dollar revenues to understand the underlying growth rate of revenue excluding the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates between periods, which are not under management’s direct control. Our management believes constant dollar revenues are useful to users of our financial data because it enables them to better understand the level of growth of our business period to period. Since constant dollar revenues are not calculated in accordance with GAAP, they should not be considered in isolation of, or as a substitute for, revenues as an indicator of operating performance. Constant dollar revenues, as we calculate them, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies.

Organic billboard revenues in the three months ended June 30, 2018 , increased $3.6 million , or 1% , compared to the same prior-year period, due to the conversion of traditional static billboard displays to digital billboard displays and an increase in average revenue per display (yield), as discussed above, partially offset by lower proceeds from condemnations. Organic billboard revenues in the six months ended June 30, 2018 , increased $4.2 million , or 1% , compared to the same prior-year period, due to the conversion of traditional static billboard displays to digital billboard displays and an increase in average revenue per display (yield), as discussed above, partially offset by lower proceeds from condemnations.

Total transit and other revenues decreased $0.7 million , or 1% , in the three months ended June 30, 2018 , compared to the same prior-year period, driven by a decline of advertising revenues from national accounts, partially offset by growth in digital displays and the impact of a new accounting standard on our Sports Marketing operating segment. We have seen a decline of advertising revenues from national accounts in the three months ended June 30, 2018 , across a variety of industry categories, primarily food/non-alcoholic beverages , movies and entertainment . Total transit and other revenues increased $3.3 million , or 2% , in the six months ended June 30, 2018 , compared to the same prior-year period, driven by growth in digital displays and the impact of a new accounting standard on our Sports Marketing operating segment, partially offset by a decline of advertising revenues from national accounts.

Impairment Charge

Depreciation

Depreciation decreased $1.8 million , or 8% , in the three months ended June 30, 2018 , compared to the same prior-year period, primarily due to the increase in fully-depreciated advertising billboards, partially offset by higher depreciation associated with the increased number of digital billboards. Depreciation decreased $3.6 million , or 8% , in the six months ended June 30, 2018 , compared to the same prior-year period, primarily due to the increase in fully-depreciated advertising billboards, partially offset by higher depreciation associated with the increased number of digital billboards.

Amortization

Amortization decreased $0.4 million , or 2% , in the three months ended June 30, 2018 , compared to the same prior-year period, principally driven by lower amortization of intangible assets, partially offset by higher direct lease acquisition costs. Amortization of direct lease acquisition costs was $11.1 million in the three months ended June 30, 2018 and $10.2 million in the three months ended June 30, 2017 . Capitalized direct lease acquisition costs were $11.1 million in the three months ended June 30, 2018 and $10.2 million in the three months ended June 30, 2017 .

Interest Expense, Net

Interest expense, net, was $31.0 million (including $1.4 million of deferred financing costs) in the three months ended June 30, 2018 , and $28.6 million (including $1.3 million of deferred financing costs) in the same prior-year period. The increase in Interest expense, net, was primarily due to higher interest rates, a higher outstanding average debt balance and letter of credit facility fees associated with the new MTA transit franchise agreement in 2018. Interest expense, net, was $61.0 million (including $2.8 million of deferred financing costs) in the six months ended June 30, 2018 , and $56.7 million (including $3.2 million of deferred financing costs) in the same prior-year period. The increase in Interest expense, net, was primarily due to higher interest rates, a higher outstanding average debt balance and letter of credit facility fees associated with the new MTA transit franchise agreement in 2018. (See the “Liquidity and Capital Resources” section of this MD&A.)

Benefit (Provision) for Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes was $8.1 million in the three months ended June 30, 2018 , compared to $0.9 million in the same prior-year period. The provision for income taxes was $1.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2018 , compared to a benefit for income taxes of $2.8 million in the same prior-year period.

primarily to an increase in our estimated annual effective tax rate, based on our estimated 2018 taxable REIT subsidiaries’ taxable income.

Net Income (Loss)

Net loss was $5.2 million in the three months ended June 30, 2018 , compared to Net income of $37.1 million in the same prior-year period, due primarily to an impairment charge of $42.9 million recorded in the second quarter of 2018 related to our Canadian reporting unit (see “Critical Accounting Policies” section of this MD&A). Net income was $3.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2018 , a decrease of $35.7 million compared to the same prior-year period, due primarily to a impairment charge of $42.9 million recorded in the second quarter of 2018 related to our Canadian reporting unit (see the “Critical Accounting Policies” section of this MD&A).

We continually project anticipated cash requirements for our operating, investing and financing needs as well as cash flows generated from operating activities available to meet these needs. Due to seasonal advertising patterns and influences on

Table of Contents

advertising markets, our revenues and operating income are typically highest in the fourth quarter, during the holiday shopping season, and lowest in the first quarter, as advertisers cut back on spending following the holiday shopping season. Further, certain of our municipal transit contracts, as well as our marketing and multimedia rights agreements with colleges and universities, require guaranteed minimum annual payments to be paid at the beginning of the year.

Our short-term cash requirements primarily include payments for operating leases, guaranteed minimum annual payments, capital expenditures, equipment deployment costs, interest and dividends. Funding for short-term cash needs will come primarily from our cash on hand, operating cash flows, our ability to issue debt and equity securities, and borrowing capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility (as defined below), the AR Facility (as defined below) or other secured credit facilities that we may establish.

In addition, as part of our growth strategy, we frequently evaluate strategic opportunities to acquire new businesses, assets or digital technology. Consistent with this strategy, we regularly evaluate potential acquisitions, ranging from small transactions to larger acquisitions, which transactions could be funded through cash on hand, additional borrowings, equity or other securities, or some combination thereof.

Our long-term cash needs include principal payments on outstanding indebtedness and commitments related to operating leases and franchise and other agreements, including any related guaranteed minimum annual payments, and equipment deployment costs. Funding for long-term cash needs will come from our cash on hand, operating cash flows, our ability to issue debt and equity securities, and borrowing capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility or other secured credit facilities that we may establish.

The increase in working capital during the six months ended June 30, 2018 , is primarily due to lower accrued expenses, higher accounts receivables and higher prepaid MTA equipment deployment costs, partially offset by higher short-term debt and higher deferred revenues.

Under the MTA agreement, we are obligated to deploy over 50,000 digital displays for advertising and MTA communications across the transit system over a number of years and the MTA is entitled to receive the greater of a percentage of revenues or a guaranteed minimum annual payment. Due to the change in the MTA’s revenue share percentage under the agreement, we expect our transit franchise operating expenses to decline in year one of the agreement as compared to prior historical periods, and gradually increase in subsequent years if our revenues increase over an annual base revenue amount. Incremental revenues that exceed an annual base revenue amount will be retained by us for the cost of deploying advertising and communications screens throughout the transit system. Our currently estimated equipment deployment cost is approximately $800 million for the full 15-year term and approximately $600 million for the first eight years of the term, and these equipment deployment costs will be recorded as Prepaid MTA equipment deployment costs and Intangible assets on our Consolidated Statement of Financial Position. If incremental revenues generated over the term of the agreement are not sufficient to cover all or a portion of the equipment deployment costs, the costs will not be recovered, which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operation. We expect to utilize third party financing to fund equipment deployment costs, and have increased our letters of credit for the benefit of the MTA from approximately $30.0 million to $136.0 million , which is subject to change as equipment installations are completed and revenues are generated. For the full year of 2018, we expect our equipment deployment costs to be approximately $130.0 million . We incurred $37.9 million related to MTA equipment deployment costs in the six months ended June 30, 2018 , for a total of $43.5 million to date.

As of June 30, 2018 , we had total indebtedness of $2.3 billion .

On July 24, 2018 , we announced that our board of directors approved a quarterly cash dividend of $0.36 per share on our common stock, payable on September 28, 2018 , to stockholders of record at the close of business on September 7, 2018 .

At-the-Market Equity Offering Program

On November 21, 2017, we entered into a sales agreement in connection with an “at-the-market” equity offering program (the “ATM Program”), under which we may, from time to time, issue and sell shares of our common stock up to an aggregate offering price of $300.0 million . We have no obligation to sell any of our common stock under the sales agreement and may at any time suspend solicitations and offers under the sales agreement. As of August 8, 2018 , no shares of our common stock have been sold under the ATM Program and accordingly, as of August 8, 2018 , $300.0 million remained available to be sold under the sales agreement.

Cash Flows

The following table presents our cash flows in the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 .

Cash provided by operating activities decreased $10.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2018 , compared to the same prior-year period, principally as a result of prepaid MTA equipment deployment costs, partially offset by the timing of payments of percentage rents due under the MTA transit franchise agreement and higher net income, as adjusted for non-cash items. In the six months ended June 30, 2018 , we paid $37.9 million related to MTA equipment deployment costs.

Cash used for investing activities decreased $46.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2018 , compared to the same prior-year period. In the six months ended June 30, 2018 , we incurred $46.4 million in capital expenditures and completed several acquisitions for total cash payments of approximately $4.3 million . In the six months ended June 30, 2017 , we incurred $42.2 million in capital expenditures and completed several acquisitions for total cash payments of approximately $57.8 million .

The following table presents our capital expenditures in the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 .



	Six Months Ended
	June 30,				%
(in millions, except percentages)	2018		2017		Change
Growth	$	36.3	$	29.6	23	%
Maintenance	10.1		12.6		(20	)
Total capital expenditures	$	46.4	$	42.2	10

Capital expenditures increased $4.2 million , or 10% , in the six months ended June 30, 2018 , compared to the same prior-year period, as we continue to spend on digital billboard and/or transit displays, partially offset by lower spending on installation of LED lighting technology and on renovations of certain office facilities.

For the full year of 2018, we expect our capital expenditures to be approximately $75.0 million , which will be used primarily for maintenance, growth in digital displays, installation of the most current LED lighting technology to improve the quality and extend the life of our static billboards, and to renovate certain office facilities. This estimate does not include equipment

deployment costs that will be incurred in connection with the MTA agreement, which will be recorded as Prepaid MTA equipment deployment costs and Intangible assets on our Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, as applicable. For the full year of 2018, we expect our equipment deployment costs to be approximately $130.0 million . We incurred $37.9 million related to MTA equipment deployment costs in the six months ended June 30, 2018 , for a total of $43.5 million to date.

Cash used for financing activities decreased $0.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2018 , compared to the same prior-year period. In the six months ended June 30, 2018 , we drew net borrowings of $69.0 million on the Revolving Credit Facility, drew net borrowings of $20.0 million on the AR Facility and paid cash dividends of $102.0 million . In the six months ended June 30, 2017 , we received net proceeds from an incremental borrowing on our Term Loan of $8.3 million , drew net borrowings of $85.0 million on the Revolving Credit Facility, incurred additional deferred financing costs of $7.5 million and paid cash dividends of $100.4 million .

Cash paid for income taxes was $5.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 , compared to $3.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 . The increase was due primarily to payments in 2018 related to income from taxable REIT subsidiaries in 2017.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Our off-balance sheet commitments primarily consist of operating lease arrangements and guaranteed minimum annual payments. (See Note 16. Commitments and Contingencies to the Consolidated Financial Statements for information about our off-balance sheet commitments.)

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of our financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate these estimates, which are based on historical experience and on various assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. The result of these evaluations forms the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the reported amount of revenues and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions.

Goodwill

On April 1, 2018, we early adopted on a prospective basis the FASB’s guidance simplifying the test for goodwill impairment. (See Note 2. New Accounting Standards to the Consolidated Financial Statements.) If the fair value of a reporting unit falls below its carrying value, excluding any impacts from foreign currency translation adjustments reflected in Accumulated other comprehensive loss on the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position in conformity with GAAP, we would record a non-cash impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying value of our reporting unit exceeded its fair value.

We test goodwill for impairment on an annual basis on October 31 of each year and between annual tests should factors or indicators become apparent that would require an interim test. Goodwill is tested for impairment at the reporting-unit level. We compute the estimated fair value of each reporting unit by adding the present value of the estimated annual cash flows over a discrete projection period to the residual value of the business at the end of the projection period. This technique requires us to use significant estimates and assumptions such as growth rates, operating margins, capital expenditures and discount rates. The estimated growth rates, operating margins and capital expenditures for the projection period are based on our internal forecasts of future performance as well as historical trends. The residual value is estimated based on a perpetual nominal growth rate, which is based on projected long-range inflation and long-term industry projections. The discount rates are determined based on the weighted average cost of capital of comparable entities. There can be no assurance that these estimates and assumptions will prove to be an accurate prediction of the future, and a downward revision of these estimates and/or assumptions would decrease the fair values of our reporting units, which could result in additional impairment charges in the future.

The estimated fair value of the Canadian reporting unit exceeded its carrying value by 2.9% as of December 31, 2017, based on our goodwill impairment assessment in the prior year. In the second quarter of 2018, our Canadian reporting unit did not meet revenue expectations and pacing reflected a decline as compared to the 2018 forecast due to the underperformance of our static poster assets and digital displays. As a result, we determined that there was a decline in the outlook for our Canadian reporting unit. This determination constituted a triggering event, requiring an interim goodwill impairment analysis of our Canadian reporting unit.

Table of Contents

In estimating the fair value of the Canadian reporting unit this quarter, our projections include accelerating growth from digital boards as structures continue to be built or converted in future periods, partially offset by declining revenue from our static poster structures and production business. We utilized a discount rate of 9.5% and a long-term growth rate 3.0% in our discounted cash flow model.

As a result of the impairment analysis performed during the second quarter of 2018, we determined that the carrying value of our Canadian reporting unit exceeded its fair value and we recorded an impairment charge of $42.9 million in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. As of June 30, 2018 , goodwill related to our Canadian reporting unit, net of accumulated impairment of $42.9 million , was $21.7 million . As of December 31, 2017, goodwill associated with our Canadian reporting unit was $68.1 million .

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

We have made statements in this MD&A and other sections of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws, including the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. You can identify forward-looking statements by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “believes,” “expects,” “could,” “would,” “may,” “might,” “will,” “should,” “seeks,” “likely,” “intends,” “plans,” “projects,” “predicts,” “estimates,” “forecast” or “anticipates” or the negative of these words and phrases or similar words or phrases that are predictions of or indicate future events or trends and that do not relate solely to historical matters. You can also identify forward-looking statements by discussions of strategy, plans or intentions related to our capital resources, portfolio performance and results of operations.

Forward-looking statements involve numerous risks and uncertainties and you should not rely on them as predictions of future events. Forward-looking statements depend on assumptions, data or methods that may be incorrect or imprecise and may not be able to be realized. We do not guarantee that the transactions and events described will happen as described (or that they will happen at all). The following factors, among others, could cause actual results and future events to differ materially from those set forth or contemplated in the forward-looking statements:


•	Declines in advertising and general economic conditions;


•	Competition;


•	Government regulation;


•	Our inability to increase the number of digital advertising displays in our portfolio;


•	Our ability to implement our digital display platform and deploy digital advertising displays to our transit franchise partners;

•	Incurrence of additional debt;


•	Interest rate risk exposure from our variable-rate indebtedness;


•	Our ability to generate cash to service our indebtedness;


•	Cash available for distributions;


•	Hedging transactions;


•	Diverse risks in our Canadian business;


•	A breach of our security measures;

Table of Contents


•	Changes in regulations and consumer concerns regarding privacy, information security and data, or any failure or perceived failure to comply with these regulations or our internal policies;


•	Asset impairment charges for goodwill;


•	Our failure to remain qualified to be taxed as a REIT;


•	REIT distribution requirements;


•	Availability of external sources of capital;


•	We may face other tax liabilities even if we remain qualified to be taxed as a REIT;


•	Complying with REIT requirements may cause us to liquidate investments or forgo otherwise attractive opportunities;


•	Our ability to contribute certain contracts to a taxable REIT subsidiary (“TRS”);


•	Our planned use of TRSs may cause us to fail to remain qualified to be taxed as a REIT;


•	REIT ownership limits;


•	Complying with REIT requirements may limit our ability to hedge effectively;


•	Failure to meet the REIT income tests as a result of receiving non-qualifying income;


•	Even if we remain qualified to be taxed as a REIT, and we sell assets, we could be subject to tax on any unrealized net built-in gains in the assets held before electing to be treated as a REIT;


•	The Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) may deem the gains from sales of our outdoor advertising assets to be subject to a 100% prohibited transaction tax;


•	Establishing operating partnerships as part of our REIT structure; and


•	U.S. federal tax reform legislation could affect us in ways that are difficult to anticipate.

While forward-looking statements reflect our good-faith beliefs, they are not guarantees of future performance. All forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q apply as of the date of this report or as of the date they were made and, except as required by applicable law, we disclaim any obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement to reflect changes in underlying assumptions or factors of new information, data or methods, future events or other changes. For a further discussion of these and other factors that could impact our future results, performance or transactions, see the section entitled “Risk Factors” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 , filed with the SEC on February 28, 2018 . You should understand that it is not possible to predict or identify all such factors. Consequently, you should not consider any such list to be a complete set of all potential risks or uncertainties.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

We are exposed to market risk related to commodity prices and foreign currency exchange rates, and to a limited extent, interest rates and credit risks.

Commodity Price Risk

We incur various operating costs that are subject to price risk caused by volatility in underlying commodity values. Commodity price risk is present in electricity costs associated with powering our digital billboard displays and lighting our traditional static billboard displays at night.

We do not currently use derivatives or other financial instruments to mitigate our exposure to commodity price risk. However, we do enter into contracts with commodity providers to limit our exposure to commodity price fluctuations. For the year ended December 31, 2017 , such contracts accounted for 13.5% of our total utility costs. As of August 8, 2018 , we have active electricity purchase agreements with fixed contract rates for locations throughout Connecticut, Illinois, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio and Texas, which expire at various dates until June 2021.

Foreign Exchange Risk

Foreign currency translation risk is the risk that exchange rate gains or losses arise from translating our Canadian business’s statements of earnings and statements of financial position from functional currency to our reporting currency (the U.S. Dollar) for consolidation purposes. Any gain or loss on translation is included within comprehensive income and Accumulated other comprehensive income on our Consolidated Statement of Financial Position. The functional currency of our international subsidiaries is their respective local currency. As of June 30, 2018 , we have $9.6 million of unrecognized foreign currency translation losses included within Accumulated other comprehensive loss on our Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.

Substantially all of our transactions at our Canadian subsidiary are denominated in their local functional currency, thereby reducing our risk of foreign currency transaction gains or losses.

Table of Contents

We do not currently use derivatives or other financial instruments to mitigate foreign currency risk, although we may do so in the future.

Interest Rate Risk

We are subject to interest rate risk to the extent we have variable-rate debt outstanding including under the Senior Credit Facilities, Revolving Credit Facility and the AR Facility.

As of June 30, 2018 , we had a $670.0 million variable-rate Term Loan due 2024 outstanding, which has an interest rate of 4.1% per year. An increase or decrease of 1/4% in our interest rate on the Term Loan will change our annualized interest expense by approximately $1.7 million .

As of June 30, 2018 , there were $69.0 million of outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility, at a borrowing rate of approximately 4.3% . An increase or decrease of 1/4% in our interest rate on the Revolving Credit Facility will change our annualized interest expense by approximately $0.2 million .

As of June 30, 2018 , we had $100.0 million of outstanding borrowings under our variable rate AR Facility, at a borrowing rate of approximately 3.1% . An increase or decrease of 1/4% in our interest rate on the AR Facility will change our annualized interest expense by approximately $0.3 million . As of August 8, 2018 , there were $90.0 million of outstanding borrowings under the AR Facility at a borrowing rate of approximately 3.1% .

We do not currently use derivatives or other financial instruments to mitigate interest rate risk, although we may do so in the future.

Credit Risk

In the opinion of our management, credit risk is limited due to the large number of customers and advertising agencies utilized. We perform credit evaluations on our customers and agencies and believe that the allowances for doubtful accounts are adequate. We do not currently use derivatives or other financial instruments to mitigate credit risk.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As required by Rule 13a-15(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), our management has carried out an evaluation, under the supervision of and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act, as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act, during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that have materially affected, or that are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Limitations on Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures and Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures and internal control

over financial reporting must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.
