Michael E. Reed, Presidential & Chief Executive Officer, said, “2013 was truly a transformative year. During the year, we restructured GateHouse Media’s balance sheet, entered into a new credit facility and emerged from bankruptcy as New Media on November 26, 2013. New Media is focused on stabilizing the traditional print business, growing our digital revenue, and acquiring strategic local media businesses.
“In 2013, New Media’s digital advertising business grew 4.9% year-over-year, and the digital marketing platform, Propel, generated an incremental $5.4 million of Digital Revenue year-over-year. Furthermore, as the Company was able to generate Operating Expense savings of $26.2 million throughout the year, we were able to reinvest a portion of these cost savings into our digital growth initiatives, especially Propel.
“In 2014, we intend to focus our growth strategy around our digital platforms, while continuing to grow our audiences and stabilize our print advertising related to our traditional business. On the mergers and acquisitions front, we hope to continue to acquire strategic media assets. Most recently, on March 3, we announced the acquisition of a community newspaper group in Victorville, CA. We believe there will be many similar compelling acquisition opportunities in the future.”
Fourth Quarter 2013
New Media recorded Revenue of $160.4 million for the quarter, which represents a decline of 3.9% when compared to the prior year on a same store basis. This decline represents the lowest quarterly decrease throughout 2013.
Total Advertising Revenue declined 8.0% on a same store basis driven by Local and Classified Print Revenue, which declined 11.5% and 9.4%, respectively, on a same store basis. However, the Company experienced strong revenue performance from Propel, Commercial Print, and Digital Advertising, which increased 264.2%, 8.2%, and 1.2%, respectively from the prior year on a same store basis.
Total Expenses in the quarter of $126.3 million were down 7.3% compared to the prior year on a same store basis after adjusting for non-recurring and non-cash items.
GAAP Net Income for the quarter was $955.4 million, compared to a Net Loss of $4.6 million in the prior year. As Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter was $34.1 million, which represented an increase of 11.3% compared to the prior year on a same store basis, excluding non-cash and non-recurring expenses.
Non-recurring costs and non-cash gains related to the restructuring in the quarter netted to $949.5 million.
Full Year 2013
New Media recorded Revenue of $516.5 million in 2013, which represents a decrease of 4.8% from the prior year on a same store basis. Print Advertising declines, specifically Local and Classified Print Revenue, were the primary drivers of full year revenue declines. The local retail print declines reflect both secular pressures and a continuing uncertain economic environment for small businesses. These secular trends and economic conditions have also led to a decline in our print circulation volumes which have been offset by price increases in certain locations.
Total Advertising Revenue declined 8.8% year-over-year on a same store basis. Local and Classified Print Revenue declined 12.2% and 12.9%, respectively, on a same store basis. However, from a Total Revenue perspective, these declines were partially offset by Digital, Propel, Circulation, and Commercial Printing which were all stable to strong categories.
In 2013 we had 4.9% growth in Digital Advertising Revenue and 569.9% growth in Propel on a same store basis. Circulation Revenue decreased 0.3% and Commercial Print and Other Revenue increased 1.9% on a same store basis.
Full year 2013 Expenses declined $15.9 million or 3.5% compared to the prior year and on a same store basis. The expense declines were driven primarily by lower compensation and newsprint, which was partially offset by investments in new strategic growth initiatives.
GAAP Net Income for the year was $794.6 million, compared to a Net Loss of $29.8 million in the prior year. As Adjusted EBITDA for the year was $79.1 million, which represents a decrease of $10.2 million. This decrease was primarily due to $4.9 million of investment in new strategic growth initiatives and revenue declines that outpaced core reduction initiatives.
Non-recurring costs and non-cash gains related to the restructuring in 2013 netted to $925.3 million.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company strongly urges stockholders and other interested persons not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate its business. In addition, because same store comparisons, Adjusted EBITDA, As Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow, are not measures of financial performance under GAAP and are susceptible to varying calculations, these non-GAAP measures, as presented in this press release, may differ from and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.
The Company had no operations until November 26, 2013 (the “Restructuring”), when it assumed control of GateHouse Media, LLC (formerly known as GateHouse Media, Inc.) (“GateHouse Media”) and Local Media Group Holdings LLC (“Local Media Group”). Due to the Restructuring and the acquisition of Local Media Group on September 3, 2013, management believes that presenting the Company’s financial results for the quarter and full year ended December 29, 2013 on an As Adjusted and same store basis (non-GAAP) provides investors and other interested persons with a more accurate comparison of the Company’s history to prior reporting periods. Such financial measures for the quarter and full year ended December 29, 2013 are not prepared in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of the Company’s GAAP financial results to As Adjusted and same store financial results is included with the financial schedules at the end of this release.
Adjusted EBITDA, As Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow
The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) from continuing operations before income tax expense (benefit), interest/financing expense, depreciation and amortization and non-cash impairments. The Company defines As Adjusted EBITDA as Adjusted EBITDA before other non-cash items such as non-cash compensation, non-recurring integration and reorganization costs and Adjusted EBITDA from non-wholly owned subsidiaries. The Company defines Distributable Cash Flow as As Adjusted EBITDA less capital expenditures, cash taxes interest paid, pension payments and debt amortization.
Management’s Use of Adjusted EBITDA, As Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow
Adjusted EBITDA, As Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow are not measures of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as alternatives to income from operations, net income (loss), cash flow from continuing operating activities or any other measure of performance or liquidity derived in accordance with GAAP. New Media’s management believes these non-GAAP measures, as defined above, are useful to investors for the following reasons:
| • | Evaluating performance and identifying trends in day-to-day performance because the items excluded have little or no significance on its day-to-day operations; |
| • | Providing assessments of controllable expenses that afford management the ability to make decisions which are expected to facilitate meeting current financial goals as well as achieving optimal financial performance; and |
| • | Indicators for management to determine if adjustments to current spending decisions are needed. |
Adjusted EBITDA, As Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow provide New Media with measures of financial performance, independent of items that are beyond the control of management in the short-term, such as depreciation and amortization, taxation and interest expense associated with its capital structure. These metrics measure New Media’s financial performance based on operational factors that management can impact in the short-term, namely the cost structure or expenses of the organization. Adjusted EBITDA, As Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow are some of the metrics used by senior management and the Board of Directors to review the financial performance of the business on a monthly basis. In addition, New Media’s management utilizes these metrics to evaluate the Company’s performance, along with other criteria, to determine the funds available for paying the quarterly dividend.
