Financial Introduction

        The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial statements. The interim financial statements are unaudited but include all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, that management considers necessary to fairly present the financial position and the results of operations for such periods. Results of operations of interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for December 31, 2002.

UNIVISION COMMUNICATIONS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

June 30, 2003
(Unaudited)

1. Organization of the Company

        Univision Communications Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries (the "Company," "we," "us" and "our"), the leading Spanish-language media company in the United States, operates in three business segments: television, music and Internet. The Company's television operations include Univision Network, its owned and operated television stations, TeleFutura Network, its owned and operated television stations and Galavisión. The Company's music operations include the Univision Music label, Fonovisa record label and a 50% interest in Disa Records ("Disa"). Univision Online, Inc. ("Univision Online"), operates the Company's Internet portal, Univision.com.

2. Recent Developments

        On April 17, 2003, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement to acquire a full-power television station in Sacramento, California for $65,000,000 from Family Stations, Inc. The Company is awaiting FCC approval. The funds for the station purchase will come primarily from the Company's revolving credit facility.

        On April 28, 2003, the Company entered into a limited liability company agreement with Televisa Pay-TV Venture, Inc., to form a 50/50 joint venture called Spanish Subscription Television LLC. The joint venture was formed to broadcast Televisa's pay television channels, other than general entertainment channels and novelas, in the United States. The joint venture, which was launched during the quarter, currently offers two movie channels and one teen lifestyle channel. In the future two additional music video channels will be launched. The joint venture is jointly controlled by Televisa and the Company with each agreeing to fund $20,000,000 over the first three years of the venture. As of June 30, 2003, the Company and Televisa had each funded $2,500,000.

        The Company has entered into an asset purchase agreement to acquire a full-power television station in Tucson, Arizona for approximately $12,000,000 from Sungilt Corporation. The Company is awaiting FCC approval. The funds for the station purchase will come primarily from the Company's revolving credit facility.

        On May 30, 2003, the Company acquired the assets of a full-power television station in Albuquerque, New Mexico for $20,000,000 from Paxson Communications Inc. The funds for the station purchase came primarily from the Company's revolving credit facility.

        The Company has agreed to acquire Hispanic Broadcasting Corporation ("HBC") pursuant to a definitive merger agreement dated June 11, 2002 in which each share of HBC common stock would be exchanged for the right to receive 0.85 of a share of the Company Class A common stock. HBC is the largest Spanish-language radio broadcaster in the United States. As a result of the merger, we expect to issue approximately 93 million Class A common shares and we expect to reserve approximately 5 million shares for issuance pursuant to HBC stock options that we would assume in the acquisition.

        On February 28, 2003, the stockholders of the Company and of HBC approved the transaction. On March 26, 2003, the Company reached an agreement with the United States Department of Justice ("DOJ") allowing the acquisition, provided that prior to the closing the Company exchanges all of its shares of capital stock of Entravision Communications Corporation ("Entravision") for shares of a new class of non-voting preferred stock of Entravision that will not have any consent or other voting rights other than the right to approve (a) a merger, consolidation, business combination, reorganization,

6



dissolution, liquidation, or termination of Entravision; (b) the direct or indirect disposition by Entravision of any interest in any FCC license with respect to any Company-affiliated television station; (c) any amendment of Entravision's charter documents adversely affecting such preferred stock; and (d) any issuance of additional shares of such preferred stock. Any shares of such preferred stock that are transferred by the Company (other than to its affiliates) will automatically convert into Class A common stock of Entravision; in addition, such shares can be converted by the Company immediately prior to any transfer to a non-affiliate. The Company has agreed to work with Entravision to convert the preferred stock into a new but substantially similar class of non-voting common stock if such new class of common stock is authorized. In addition, the Company will be required to sell enough of its Entravision stock so that the Company's ownership of Entravision does not exceed 15% by March 26, 2006 and 10% by March 26, 2009. The agreement with the DOJ will have no impact on the Company's existing television station affiliation agreements with Entravision. We expect the transaction to close once we receive approval from the Federal Communications Commission. At June 30, 2003, the Company has approximately $18,000,000 of capitalized merger costs that it will have to expense if it does not complete the acquisition of HBC.

3. Changes in Common Stock and Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock

        During the three months ended June 30, 2003, options were exercised for 203,450 shares of Class A Common Stock, resulting in an increase to Common Stock of $2,035 and an increase to Paid-in-capital of $4,204,000, which included a tax benefit associated with the transactions of $1,178,000. During the six months ended June 30, 2003, options were exercised for 259,950 shares of Class A Common Stock, resulting in an increase to Common Stock of $2,600 and an increase to Paid-in-capital of $5,283,000, which included a tax benefit associated with the transactions of $1,461,000.

        In December 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 148 "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation—Transition and Disclosure." SFAS No. 148 amends SFAS No. 123 "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," to provide alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair-value for stock-based employee compensation. In addition, SFAS No. 148 amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123 to require prominent disclosures in both annual and interim financial statements about the method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the method used on reported results. SFAS No. 148 is effective for financial statements issued for 2003. As allowed by SFAS No. 123, the Company follows the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123, but continues to account for its employee stock option plans in

8



accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," which results in no charge to earnings when options are issued at fair market value.

        Had compensation cost for the Company's 1996 Performance Award Plan been determined based on the fair value at the grant date for awards in the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 consistent with the provisions of SFAS No. 123, as amended by SFAS No. 148, the Company's net income and earnings per share available to common stockholders would have been reduced to the pro forma amounts indicated below:

        The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. No grants were awarded during the three months ended June 30, 2003. The following weighted-average assumptions were used for grants for the three months ended June 30, 2002 and the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively: dividend yield of 0%, expected volatility of 45.008%, 49.497% and 45.156%, risk-free interest rate of 3.92%, 3.27% and 4.29% and expected life of six years. The Company currently uses graded (accelerated) vesting as its amortization policy, which results in higher compensation expense in the early years of the vesting period.

6. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets Amortization

        On June 30, 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 141 "Business Combinations" and SFAS No. 142 "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets". SFAS No. 141 requires all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 to be accounted for using the purchase method of accounting and eliminates the pooling method of accounting. SFAS No. 141 did not have an impact on the Company's business since the Company has historically accounted for all business combinations using the purchase method of accounting. With the adoption of SFAS No. 142, goodwill and other intangibles with an indefinite life, such as broadcast licenses ceased being amortized after December 31, 2001. The broadcast licenses have an indefinite life because the Company expects to renew them and renewals are routinely granted with little cost, provided that the licensee has complied with the applicable FCC rules and regulations. Over the last five years, all licenses that have been up for renewal have been renewed, and there has been no compelling challenge to the license renewal. The technology used in broadcasting is not expected to be replaced by another technology in the foreseeable future. Therefore, the broadcast licenses and the related cash flows are expected to continue indefinitely. These indefinite cash flows indicate that the broadcast licenses have an indefinite useful life. Therefore, a license would not be amortized until its useful life is deemed to no longer be indefinite. The licenses are tested at least annually for impairment in accordance with paragraph 17 of SFAS No. 142. Goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangibles will be subject to at least an annual assessment for impairment and more frequently if circumstances indicate a possible impairment exists. The Company has evaluated its goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets in accordance with the guidelines of SFAS No. 142 as it relates to assessing impairment and has concluded that it does not have an impairment loss related to these assets. In addition, under SFAS No. 141, an acquired intangible asset should be separately recognized if the benefit of the intangible is obtained through contractual or other legal rights, or if the intangible asset can be sold, transferred, licensed, rented, or exchanged. Intangible assets with measurable lives will be amortized over their respective useful lives. The use of the purchase method of accounting requires management to make certain judgments in estimates related to the fair value of assets acquired.

7. Entravision Investment

        At June 30, 2003, the Company had an approximate 30% equity interest in Entravision. Entravision is a significant unconsolidated subsidiary of the Company that is accounted for under the equity method on a one-month lag. Entravision is restricted under its credit agreement from making dividend payments. In accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission's Regulation S-X, the Company is providing the following summarized financial information of Entravision:

        During the first and second quarters of 2002, Entravision reported a SFAS No. 142 transitional impairment loss as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle. In the third quarter, Entravision reversed its SFAS No. 142 loss based upon finalization of an independent appraisal. Since the Company accounts for its investment in Entravision under the equity method of accounting, the Company adjusted its share of Entravision's SFAS No. 142 impairment loss that it had reported as of June 30, 2002 totaling $7,887,000 by reversing this charge in its entirety. Under the guidelines of SFAS No. 3, "Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements", the Company is reporting this reversal as if it occurred on January 1, 2002. See Note 2 regarding changes in the Company's investment in Entravision immediately prior to closing the HBC transaction.

8. New Accounting Pronouncements

        In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued FASB Interpretation ("FIN") No. 46, "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities," (or VIEs) which addresses consolidation by business enterprises of variable interest entities. FIN No. 46 expands upon and strengthens existing accounting guidance that addresses when a company should include in its financial statements the assets, liabilities and activities of another entity. Under previous guidance, a company generally included another entity in its consolidated financial statements only if it controlled the entity through voting interests. FIN No. 46 requires a variable interest entity to be consolidated by a company if that company is the "primary beneficiary" of that entity. The primary beneficiary is subject to a majority of the risk of loss from the VIE's activities, or is entitled to receive a majority of the VIE's residual

14



returns, or both. The consolidation requirements of FIN No. 46 apply immediately to VIEs created after January 31, 2003 and apply to previously established entities in the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. Certain of the disclosure requirements apply to all financial statements issued after January 31, 2003, regardless of when the VIE was established. Management is still evaluating the requirements of FIN No. 46 but does not expect that its adoption will have an impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

        In April 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 149, "Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." SFAS No. 149 amends and clarifies financial accounting and reporting for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts (collectively referred to as derivatives) and for hedging activities under SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. SFAS No. 149 is effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003 and is not expected to have an impact on the Company's statement of financial position or results of operations.

        In May 2003, FASB issued SFAS No. 150, "Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity." SFAS No. 150 establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. It requires that an issuer classify a financial instrument that is within its scope as a liability (or an asset in some circumstances). Many of those instruments were previously classified as equity. SFAS No. 150 is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003, except for mandatory redeemable financial instruments of nonpublic entities. The adoption of SFAS No. 150 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's statement of financial position or results of operations.

Part I, Item 2

UNIVISION COMMUNICATIONS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Form 10-Q
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

        Univision Communications Inc., together with its wholly owned subsidiaries (the "Company," "we," "us" and "our"), operates in three business segments:

        The majority of the Company's net revenues have been derived from the television segment. Television net revenues are generated from the sale of network, national and local spot advertising time, net of agency commissions, and station compensation paid to certain affiliates, as well as subscriber fees.

        Also included in the Company's total net revenues are the net revenues of Univision Music Group, Univision Online and other revenues.

        Direct operating expenses consist primarily of programming, news and general operating costs.

Critical Accounting Policies

Program Rights for Television Broadcast

        Program costs pursuant to the Program License Agreements with Televisa and Venevision are expensed monthly by the Company as a license fee, which is based on a percentage of the Company's net revenues. All other costs incurred in connection with the production of or purchase of rights to programs to be broadcast within one year are classified as current assets, while costs of those programs to be broadcast subsequently are considered non-current. Program costs are charged to operating expense as the programs are broadcast. In the case of multi-year sports contracts, program costs are charged to operating expense based on the flow-of-income method over the term of the contract.

Revenue Recognition

        The Company's television revenues are recognized when advertising spots are aired, less agency commissions and station compensation costs paid to certain affiliates. Television subscriber fees and a network service fee payable to the Company by the affiliated stations are recognized when earned. Univision Music Group revenues are recognized when products are shipped to customers less an allowance for returns, cooperative advertising and discounts. The Internet business consists primarily of banner and sponsorship advertising revenues. Banner revenues are recognized as "impressions" are delivered and sponsorship revenues are recognized ratably over their contract period. "Impressions" are defined as the number of times that an advertisement appears in pages viewed by users of the Company's online properties.

Accounting for Intangibles and Impairment

        On June 30, 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 141 "Business Combinations" and SFAS No. 142 "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets." SFAS No. 141 requires all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 to be accounted for using the purchase method of accounting and eliminates the pooling method of accounting. SFAS No. 141 did not have an impact on the Company's business since the Company has historically accounted for all business combinations using the purchase method of accounting. With the adoption of SFAS No. 142, goodwill and other intangibles with an indefinite life, such as broadcast licenses ceased being amortized after December 31, 2001. The broadcast licenses have an indefinite life because the Company expects to renew them and renewals are routinely granted with little cost, provided that the licensee has complied with the applicable FCC rules and regulations. Over the last five years, all licenses that have been up for renewal have been renewed, and there has been no compelling challenge to the license renewal. The technology used in broadcasting is not expected to be replaced by another technology in the foreseeable future. Therefore, the broadcast licenses and the related cash flows are expected to continue indefinitely. These indefinite cash flows indicate that the broadcast licenses have an indefinite useful life. Therefore, a license would not be amortized until its useful life is deemed to no longer be indefinite. The licenses are tested at least annually for impairment in accordance with paragraph 17 of SFAS No. 142. Goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangibles are subject to at least an annual assessment for impairment and more frequently if circumstances indicate a possible impairment exists. The Company has evaluated its goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets in accordance with the guidelines of SFAS No. 142 as it relates to assessing impairment and has concluded that it does not have an impairment loss related to these assets. In addition, under SFAS No. 141, an acquired intangible asset should be separately recognized if the benefit of the intangible is obtained through contractual or other legal rights, or if the intangible asset can be sold, transferred, licensed, rented, or exchanged. Intangible assets with measurable lives will be amortized over their respective useful lives. The use of the purchase method of accounting requires management to make certain judgments in estimates related to the fair value of assets acquired.

Equity and cost method investment valuation and accounting

        The Company's investments in unconsolidated subsidiaries are all accounted for under the equity method of accounting except for the investment in Equity Broadcasting Corporation, which is accounted for under the cost method of accounting since the Company owns primarily non-voting preferred stock. The Company records an investment impairment charge when it believes an investment has experienced a decline in value that is other than temporary. The Company evaluates changes in market conditions and/or operating results of its underlying investments that may result in the inability to recover the carrying value of the investments.

Related Party Transactions

        Televisa and Venevision, which are principal stockholders of the Company, have program license agreements with us that provide our three networks with a substantial amount of their programming. The Company currently pays a license fee of approximately 15% of Television net revenues to Televisa and Venevision for their programming, subject to certain adjustments. The Company believes that the program license agreements and all other agreements with Televisa and Venevision have been negotiated as arms-length transactions.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2003 ("2003"), Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2002 ("2002")

        Revenues.    Net revenues were $581,842,000 in 2003 compared to $537,245,000 in 2002, an increase of $44,597,000 or 8.3%. Existing operations accounted for 1.8% of this growth while 6.5% of the growth was attributable to additional music business revenues primarily related to the acquisition of

17


Fonovisa in April 2002. The Company's television segment revenues were $519,361,000 in 2003 compared to $509,959,000 in 2002, an increase of $9,402,000 or 1.8%. This revenue growth was achieved despite the incremental revenues in 2002 due to the broadcast of World Cup Games during the 2002 period. The Company's three networks had an increase in revenues of $4,898,000 or 1.6%, resulting primarily from higher prices for advertising spots excluding the 2002 World Cup, greater advertiser awareness of the TeleFutura network, which launched on January 14, 2002, and improved programming on the cable network. The O&Os had an increase in revenues of $4,504,000 or 2.1% attributable primarily to the Miami, Fresno, Sacramento, San Francisco and Phoenix markets, resulting primarily from increased market share and advertiser awareness of the growing importance of the Hispanic market, as well as from new stations in Austin, Atlanta, Philadelphia and Raleigh. The Company's music segment generated revenues of $56,613,000 in 2003 compared to $21,633,000 in 2002, an increase of $34,980,000 primarily related to the acquisition of Fonovisa in April 2002.

The Company's television segment direct operating expenses were $203,396,000 in 2003 compared to $232,350,000 in 2002, a decrease of $28,954,000 or 12.5%. The decrease is due primarily to the elimination of 2002 costs related to the World Cup Games of approximately $55,000,000 offset by increased license fees paid under the program license agreement of $12,563,000, increased movie and novela costs of $1,642,000, an increase in other entertainment programming costs of $5,372,000, increased news and technical costs of $4,507,000 and sports-related programming costs of $2,366,000. The Company's music segment had direct operating expenses of $32,502,000 in 2003 compared to $10,350,000 in 2002, an increase of $22,152,000 that is primarily related to the acquisition of Fonovisa in April 2002.

The Company's television segment selling, general and administrative expenses were $140,817,000 in 2003 compared to $128,749,000 in 2002, an increase of $12,068,000 or 9.4%. The increase is due in part to increased selling costs of $2,730,000, resulting from higher sales, increased research costs of $2,512,000, increased promotion costs of $2,454,000 and increased employee benefit costs of $1,410,000. The Company's music segment had selling, general and administrative expenses of $17,762,000 in 2003 compared to $11,240,000, an increase of $6,522,000 that is primarily related to the acquisition of Fonovisa in April 2002.

The Company's depreciation expense increased to $33,543,000 in 2003 from $29,103,000 in 2002, an increase of $4,440,000 primarily due to increased capital expenditures and station assets acquired. The Company had amortization of intangible assets of $5,697,000 and $8,144,000 in 2003 and 2002, respectively, a decrease of $2,447,000, which is due primarily to a reduction of intangible assets being amortized based on a final valuation of amortizable identified intangibles, primarily artist contracts, resulting from the Fonovisa acquisition on April 16, 2002. Depreciation and amortization expense for the television segment increased by $4,176,000 to $31,239,000 in 2003 from $27,063,000 in 2002 due to increased depreciation primarily related to higher capital expenditures and station assets acquired. Depreciation and amortization expense for the music segment decreased by $2,256,000 to $5,392,000 in 2003 from $7,648,000 in 2002

18



due primarily to a reduction of intangible assets being amortized based on a final valuation of amortizable identified intangibles, primarily artist contracts, resulting from the Fonovisa acquisition on April 16, 2002. Artist contracts are contracts acquired under the Fonovisa acquisition and represent agreements between Fonovisa and music artists to produce recording masters to be used primarily for future releases of albums. These contracts are being amortized over 10 years, but most will be amortized in the first three years. Depreciation and amortization expense for the Internet segment increased by $73,000 to $2,609,000 in 2003 from $2,536,000 in 2002 due to increased capital expenditures.

        Operating Income.    As a result of the above factors, operating income increased to $136,158,000 in 2003 from $104,368,000 in 2002, an increase of $31,790,000 or 30.5%.

The Company's Internet segment had an operating loss of $8,708,000 in 2003 and $9,824,000 in 2002, an improvement of $1,116,000. The Company's Internet segment is expected to generate an operating loss in 2003. This loss is not expected to have a material impact on the financial condition of the Company. As a percentage of net revenues, operating income increased from 19.4% in 2002 to 23.4% in 2003.

        Interest Expense, Net.    Interest expense decreased to $37,211,000 in 2003 from $43,634,000 in 2002, a decrease of $6,423,000 or 14.7%. The decrease is due primarily to lower interest rates on bank borrowings.

        Equity Loss in Unconsolidated Subsidiaries and Other.    Equity loss in unconsolidated subsidiaries and other increased to $8,018,000 in 2003 from $7,401,000 in 2002, an increase of $617,000 due to higher equity losses of $1,011,000 offset by a favorable net change of $394,000 on the disposal of fixed assets.

        Gain on Change in Entravision Ownership Interest.    Gain on change in Entravision ownership interest decreased to $1,457,000 in 2003 from $1,983,000 in 2002, a decrease of $526,000. These gains were derived in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission guidelines, Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 51 "Accounting for the Sale of Stock by a Subsidiary," which allows the Company to recognize gains and losses from its unconsolidated subsidiaries' stock issuances.

        Provision for Income Taxes.    In 2003, the Company reported an income tax provision of $36,112,000, representing $19,100,000 of current tax expense and $17,012,000 of deferred tax expense. In 2002, the Company reported an income tax provision of $23,595,000, representing $11,797,000 of current tax expense and $11,798,000 of deferred tax expense. The total effective tax rate was 40% in 2003 and 44.2% in 2002. The Company's effective tax rate of 40% for 2003 is lower than the 44.2% for 2002 since the Company's relatively fixed permanent non-deductible tax differences have a lesser effect as financial statement pre-tax income increases.

        Net Income.    As a result of the above factors, the Company reported net income in 2003 of $54,372,000 compared to net income of $29,789,000 in 2002, an increase of $24,583,000 or 82.5%. As a percentage of net revenues, net income increased from 5.5% in 2002 to 9.3% in 2003.

The Company's Internet segment had an operating loss before depreciation and amortization of $6,099,000 in 2003 and $7,288,000 in 2002, an

19



improvement of $1,189,000. The Company's Internet segment is expected to generate an operating loss before depreciation and amortization in 2003. This loss is not expected to have a material impact on the financial condition of the Company. As a percentage of net revenues, operating income before depreciation and amortization increased from 26.4% in 2002 to 30.1% in 2003.

        The Company uses the key indicator of "operating income before depreciation and amortization" primarily to evaluate the Company's operating performance and for planning and forecasting future business operations. In addition, this key indicator is commonly used as a measure of performance for broadcast companies, is used by investors to measure a company's ability to service debt and other cash needs, and provides investors the opportunity to evaluate the Company's performance as it is viewed by management. Operating income before depreciation and amortization is not, and should not be used as, an indicator of or an alternative to operating income, net income or cash flow as reflected in the consolidated financial statements, is not a measure of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. Since the definition of operating income before depreciation and amortization may vary among companies and industries it should not be used as a measure of performance among companies. In accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission guidelines, the Company is providing on a consolidated basis a reconciliation of the non-GAAP term operating income before depreciation and amortization to net income, which is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, and to operating income for the segments for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002:

Existing operations accounted for a 4% revenue decrease offset in part by a 3.2% revenue growth attributable to additional revenues from the music business primarily as a result of the acquisition of Fonovisa in April 2002. The Company's television segment revenues were $287,922,000 in 2003 compared to $300,796,000 in 2002, a decrease of $12,874,000 or 4.3%. The Company's three networks had a decrease in revenues of $10,342,000 or 5.9%, attributable primarily to the loss in 2003 of some incremental revenues generated from the success of the World Cup Games in the 2002 period. The O&Os also had a decrease in revenues of $2,532,000 or 2.0% attributable primarily to the loss of some of the incremental revenues generated from the World Cup Games in 2002.

Depreciation and amortization expense for the television segment increased by $1,504,000 to $15,790,000 in 2003 from $14,286,000 in 2002 due to increased depreciation primarily

21

        The Company's primary source of cash flow is its television operations. Funds for debt service, capital expenditures and operations historically have been provided by cash on hand, funds from operations and by borrowings. At June 30, 2003 cash on hand was $66,601,000.

        Capital expenditures totaled $24,079,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2003. This amount excludes the capitalized lease obligations of the Company. In addition to performing normal capital improvements, the Company is still in the process of replacing and upgrading several towers, transmitters and antennas. In 2003, the Company plans on spending a total of approximately

23



$80,000,000 that will consist of $26,000,000 for towers, transmitters, antennas and digital technology, $11,000,000 for Univision Network upgrades and facilities expansion, $10,000,000 for the completion of the build-out of TeleFutura Network and station facilities, $3,000,000 for the build-out of the Austin station and approximately $30,000,000 for normal capital improvements and management information systems. The Company expects to fund its capital expenditures primarily with operating cash flow and, if necessary, from proceeds available under its bank facility.

        The Company's 7.85% Senior Notes due July 18, 2011 (the "Notes") have a face value of $500,000,000 and bear simple interest at 7.85%. The Company received net proceeds of $495,370,000 from the issuance of the Notes and pays interest on the Notes on January 15 and July 15 of each year. The Notes are the Company's senior unsecured obligations, are equal in right of payment with all of the Company's existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness, are senior in right of payment to any of the Company's future subordinated indebtedness and are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by all of the Company's guarantors, who are described below. The Company has the option to redeem all or a portion of the Notes at any time at the redemption prices set forth in the note indenture. The indenture does not contain any provisions that would require us to repurchase or redeem or otherwise modify the terms of the Notes upon a change of control. The indenture does not limit our ability to incur indebtedness or require the maintenance of financial ratios or specified levels of net worth or liquidity.

        The Company also has a $1.22 billion credit agreement with a syndicate of commercial lenders. The credit agreement consists of a $720,000,000 term loan and a $500,000,000 revolving credit facility. Each of the credit facilities will mature on July 18, 2006. At June 30, 2003, the Company had borrowings of $720,000,000 outstanding under its term loan and $150,000,000 outstanding under its revolving credit facility. In addition, the Company has letters of credit outstanding with Raycom Media, Inc., for the acquisition of the Puerto Rico stations ($20,000,000); Kirch Media WM AG, related to the FIFA World Cup Agreement ($8,000,000); and two additional letters of credit totaling approximately $1,700,000.

        The subsidiaries that guarantee the Company's obligations under its credit agreement also guarantee the Notes. The subsidiary guarantors under the credit facilities are all of our domestic subsidiaries other than certain immaterial subsidiaries. The guarantees are full and unconditional and joint and several and any subsidiaries of the Company other than the subsidiary guarantors are minor. Univision Communications Inc. is not a guarantor and has no independent assets or operations. The guarantees of the obligations under the revolving credit facility, term loan and the Notes will be released if our senior unsecured debt is rated BBB or better by Standard & Poor's Rating Services and Baa2 or better by Moody's Investor Service, Inc. The guarantees of such subsidiary will be reinstated if such ratings fall below BBB- by Standard & Poor's or Baa3 by Moody's. The Company's senior unsecured debt is currently rated BB+ by Standard & Poor's Rating Services and Baa3 by Moody's Investor Service, Inc.

        Loans made under the revolving credit facility and term loan bear interest determined by reference to LIBOR or a base rate equal to the higher of the prime rate of Chase Manhattan Bank or 0.50% per annum over the federal funds rate. Depending on the rating assigned by rating agencies to our senior unsecured debt, the LIBOR interest rate margin on the Company's term loans ranges from 0.75% to 1.5% per annum and the base rate margin ranges from 0% to 0.50% per annum. The Company's LIBOR interest rate margin on its term loans was 1.25% for the six months ended June 30, 2003. During the six months ended 2003, the interest rates applicable to the Company's bank credit facilities ranged from approximately 2.36% to 2.66% for LIBOR rate loans and from 4.25% to 4.50% for prime rate loans. At June 30, 2003, the interest rate applicable to the Company's LIBOR rate loans was approximately 2.4%. The Company borrows at the prime rate from time to time but attempts to maintain these loans at a minimum. Interest is generally payable quarterly.

        The credit agreement contains customary covenants, including restrictions on liens and dividends, and financial covenants relating to interest coverage and maximum leverage. Under the credit agreement, the Company is also limited in the amount of other debt it can incur and in its ability to engage in mergers, sell assets and make material changes to its program license agreements with Televisa or Venevision in a manner the lenders determine is materially adverse to the Company. At June 30, 2003, the Company was in compliance with its financial covenants.

        At June 30, 2003, the Company had an approximate 30% equity interest investment in Entravision of $334,000,000. Entravision is restricted under its credit agreement from making dividend payments.

        Effective February 1, 2002, the Company entered into a time brokerage agreement with Raycom Media, Inc. and related parties to manage its two stations in Puerto Rico. Under the agreement, the Company programs WLII-TV 11 in San Juan and WSUR-TV 9 in Ponce, collectively branded as "Teleonce," on behalf of Raycom. The management fee to the Company is $500,000 per year. In addition, the Company entered into an option agreement that expires on December 31, 2004 to acquire these stations for $190,000,000. The purchase price will be reduced if certain earnings targets are met during the period prior to the expiration of the option agreement. Effective March 6, 2003, the Company amended the time brokerage agreement and the option agreement to eliminate certain performance targets that the Company was required to achieve or Raycom would have the option to terminate the agreements. In return, the Company's lender issued a $20,000,000 stand-by letter of credit on behalf of the Company in favor of Raycom that Raycom can draw on if the Company does not exercise the option under certain circumstances. If the Company decides to exercise its option to acquire the Puerto Rico stations, it will be required to find suitable facilities to run its operations since the existing station office lease will expire in November 2004. On July 23, 2003, Univision of Puerto Rico entered into a letter of commitment with respect to new facilities. Any commitment or expenditure resulting from that effort is not included in the capital expenditures forecast outlined above. Additionally, if the Company acquires the Puerto Rico stations, it will be required to offer Televisa the right to acquire a 15% interest in those stations and an affiliate of Venevision the right to acquire a 10% interest in those stations. Such options will be exercisable at a price equal to the pro rata portion of the Company's purchase price for the stations (including costs) during a period of 90 days from the closing of the Company's acquisition of the stations.

        The Company has entered into an asset purchase agreement to acquire a full-power television station in Tucson, Arizona for approximately $12,000,000 from Sungilt Corporation. The Company is awaiting FCC approval. The funds for the station purchase will come primarily from the Company's revolving credit facility.

        In July 2000, the Federal Communications Commission released a Public Notice giving official notification that the Company was the winning bidder for a construction permit for a new television station in Blanco, Texas with a winning bid of $18,798,000. On August 1, 2000, the Company made the required 20% down payment of $3,759,600 while awaiting final approval by the FCC.

        In April 2001, the Company launched a music publishing and recording division, Univision Music Group. In June 2001, the Company acquired a 50% interest in Disa Records, S.A. de C.V. The Company has a call right and the Chavez family, who own the other 50% interest in Disa, has a put right starting in June 2006, which will require the Company to purchase the remaining 50% interest for $75,000,000, subject to certain upward adjustments. Disa Records is a Mexico-based music recording and publishing company with a large complement of Latin artists. The Company expects to make any such payments with funds from the bank credit facility.

        The Company is still seeking approximately $30,000,000 from Televisa for certain working capital adjustments in connection with the acquisition of Fonovisa on April 16, 2002. The Company expects this to be resolved in 2003 either through negotiation between the parties or by binding arbitration.

        On August 9, 2000, the Company acquired the Spanish-language television rights in the U.S. to the 2002 and 2006 FIFA World Cup soccer games and other 2000-2006 FIFA events. A series of payments totaling $150,000,000 are due over the term of the agreement with the remaining payments due as follows:

March 5, 2004   $ 8,000,000
March 5, 2005     8,000,000
30 days before start of 2006 World Cup     33,000,000
45 days after last day of 2006 World Cup     33,000,000
   
    $ 82,000,000
   

        As the Company makes each payment, the next scheduled payment under the contract will be supported by a letter of credit. The rights fees are being amortized over the 2002/2006 World Cups and other interim FIFA events based on the flow of income method. In addition to these payments, and consistent with past coverage of the World Cup games, the Company will be responsible for all costs associated with advertising, promotion and broadcast of the World Cup games, as well as the production of certain television programming related to the World Cup games. The future funds for payments related to this agreement are expected to come from income from operations and/or borrowings from the Company's bank facilities.

        In 2003, the Company purchased a full-power television station in Fresno, California for $35,000,000, a full-power television station in Albuquerque, New Mexico for $20,000,000 and a full-power television station in Raleigh, North Carolina for $19,000,000. The Company obtained the funds for the payments primarily from its bank credit facility. In 2002, the Company had station acquisition costs of approximately $612,000,000 related to the assets acquired from USA Broadcasting, Inc., the purchase of the majority interest in its TeleFutura San Francisco station for approximately $42,000,000 and the acquisition of a station in Austin, Texas for approximately $12,000,000. Funds for these payments were obtained primarily from its bank credit facility and from proceeds of Televisa's equity investment in the Company of $375,000,000.

        In 2003, the Company's music segment renewed contracts with certain artists for firm multi-album commitments of approximately $28,500,000. As part of the contracts, the Company paid approximately $8,000,000 in signing advances, with the remaining balance due based on future album production. The commitments under these contracts are expected to be completed by 2008. These contracts are the only major contractual payment obligation the music segment entered into since the commitments reported at December 31, 2002.

        On April 17, 2003, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement to acquire a full-power television station in Sacramento for $65,000,000 from Family Stations, Inc. The Company is awaiting FCC approval. The funds for the station purchase will come primarily from the Company's revolving credit facility.

        On April 28, 2003, the Company entered into a limited liability company agreement with Televisa Pay-TV Venture, Inc., to form a 50/50 joint venture called Spanish Subscription Television LLC. The joint venture was formed to broadcast Televisa's pay television channels, other than general entertainment channels and novelas, in the United States. The joint venture, which was launched during the quarter, currently offers two movie channels and one teen lifestyle channel. In the future two additional music video channels will be launched. The joint venture is jointly controlled by Televisa and the Company with each agreeing to fund $20,000,000 over the first three years of the venture. As of June 30, 2003, the Company and Televisa had each funded $2,500,000.

        The Company has agreed to acquire Hispanic Broadcasting Corporation ("HBC"), which is the largest Spanish-language radio broadcaster in the United States, pursuant to a definitive merger

26



agreement dated June 11, 2002 in which each share of HBC common stock would be exchanged for the right to receive 0.85 of a share of the Company Class A common stock. The Company expects the acquisition to be accretive to earnings per share.

        On February 28, 2003, the stockholders of the Company and of HBC approved the acquisition of HBC. On March 26, 2003, the Company reached an agreement with the United States Department of Justice ("DOJ") allowing the acquisition, provided that the Company exchanges all of its shares of capital stock of Entravision Communications Corporation ("Entravision") for shares of a new class of non-voting preferred stock of Entravision that will not have any consent or other voting rights other than the right to approve (a) a merger, consolidation, business combination, reorganization, dissolution, liquidation, or termination of Entravision; (b) the direct or indirect disposition by Entravision of any interest in any FCC license with respect to any Company-affiliated television station; (c) any amendment of Entravision's charter documents adversely affecting such preferred stock; and (d) any issuance of additional shares of such preferred stock. Any shares of such preferred stock that are transferred by the Company (other than to its affiliates) will automatically convert into Class A common stock of Entravision; in addition, such shares can be converted by the Company immediately prior to any transfer to a non-affiliate. The Company has agreed to work with Entravision to convert the preferred stock into a new but substantially similar class of non-voting common stock if such new class of common stock is authorized. In addition, the Company will be required to sell enough of its Entravision stock so that the Company's ownership of Entravision does not exceed 15% by March 26, 2006 and 10% by March 26, 2009. The cash expected to be realized as a result of the sale of the Entravision stock and the timing of the transactions cannot be determined at this time. The agreement with the DOJ will have no impact on the Company's existing television station affiliation agreements with Entravision. We expect the transaction will close upon approval from the Federal Communications Commission.

        The proposed merger with HBC may give rise to several uncertainties. First, the Company must successfully integrate with HBC in order to achieve the intended benefits of the merger, some of which include lower promotion costs, the opportunity for cross-promotion, and faster revenue growth. Integrating the two businesses will be difficult and may require substantial changes to the way each company currently does business. Furthermore, integration may distract management and employees from the operation of the businesses or may require the combined company to allocate resources that otherwise would be allocated to developing the business or other matters. In addition, upon closing of the pending HBC acquisition, the Company will be required to measure impairment of its investment in Entravision stock under SFAS No. 115 "Accounting for Certain Investments in and Debt and Equity Securities." Under SFAS No. 115, an impairment that is deemed temporary will be charged to "Other Comprehensive Income," while one deemed other than temporary will be reflected in the income statement. At June 30, 2003, the fair value of our investment in Entravision exceeds our cost basis. At June 30, 2003, the Company has approximately $18,000,000 of capitalized merger costs that it will have to expense if it does not complete the acquisition of HBC.

        The Company expects to explore additional acquisition opportunities to complement and capitalize on our existing business and management. The purchase price for the acquisitions and investments described above as well as any future acquisitions may be paid with (a) cash derived from operating cash flow, (b) proceeds available under bank facilities, (c) proceeds from future debt or equity offerings, or (d) any combination thereof. Based on our current level of operations and planned capital expenditures, the Company believes that its cash flow from operations, together with available cash and available borrowings under the bank credit facility, will be adequate to meet future liquidity needs for at least the next twelve months.

UNIVISION COMMUNICATIONS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

        The Company's primary interest rate exposure results from changes in the short-term interest rates applicable to the Company's LIBOR loans. The Company borrows at the U.S. prime rate from time to time but attempts to maintain these loans at a minimum. Based on the Company's overall interest rate exposure on its bank loans at June 30, 2003, a change of 10% in interest rates would have an impact of approximately $2,300,000 on pre-tax earnings and pre-tax cash flows over a one-year period. The Company has immaterial foreign exchange exposure in Mexico. In addition, the Company has no derivative instruments or off balance sheet exposure.


Item 4. Controls and Procedures

        Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our periodic reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the required time periods.

Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that such controls and procedures were effective. The Company reviews its disclosure controls and procedures, on an ongoing basis, and may from time to time make changes aimed at enhancing their effectiveness and to ensure that they evolve with the Company's business.
