IHEARTMEDIA, INC. REPORTS

RESULTS FOR 2017 SECOND QUARTER

San Antonio, TX, August 3, 2017 – iHeartMedia, Inc. (PINK: IHRT) today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2017.

“We continue to build out our unique digital capabilities as a true multi-platform, 21st-century media company fueled by our unique data, with iHeartMedia’s unparalleled U.S. reach and the extensive global footprint of our Outdoor businesses,” said Bob Pittman, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of iHeartMedia, Inc. “At our iHeartMedia segment, for example, we are expanding our SmartAudio suite of advertising products to create Smart A/V Audiences, which combines data from both iHeartMedia and Fox Networks Group to transform how our advertising partners reach their target audiences. And Americas outdoor and International outdoor are maximizing the value of our expanding digital inventory with innovative data analytics and automated ad-buying offerings.”

Rich Bressler, President, Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer said: “In the second quarter, our consolidated revenues declined, while operating income increased. However, adjusting for the impact of certain businesses we sold in 2016 and foreign exchange, consolidated revenues grew, with increases at our iHeartMedia and International outdoor segments. To date, the iHeartMedia segment has delivered seventeen consecutive quarters of year-over-year revenue growth. We remain committed to balancing financial discipline with investments to grow our businesses while continuing to work on our capital structure.”

Second Quarter 2017 Results

Consolidated

Consolidated revenue decreased $24.1 million, or 1.5%, during the second quarter of 2017 as compared to the second quarter of 2016. Revenue growth from our iHM business was offset by lower revenue generated by our International outdoor businesses as a result of the sales of certain outdoor businesses. Consolidated revenue increased $27.4 million, or 1.7%, after adjusting for a $15.5 million impact from movements in foreign exchange rates and the $36.1 million impact of outdoor businesses sold in 2016.

Consolidated direct operating and SG&A expenses increased $13.9 million, or 1.3%, during the second quarter of 2017 as compared to the second quarter of 2016. Consolidated direct operating and SG&A expenses increased $55.3 million, or 5.4%, in the second quarter after adjusting for a $12.4 million impact of movements in foreign exchange rates and the $29.1 million impact from the sale of the outdoor businesses.

Consolidated operating income increased $58.0 million, or 22.9%, during the second quarter of 2017 as compared to the second quarter of 2016, primarily as a result of a net loss recognized in 2016 on the sale of our outdoor business in Turkey, which resulted in a net loss of $56.6 million which includes cumulative translation adjustments of $32.2 million.

The Company’s OIBDAN decreased 6.0% to $454.0 million during the second quarter of 2017 as compared to the second quarter of 2016. After adjusting for the movements in foreign exchange rates and the impact of the sale of outdoor businesses, the Company’s OIBDAN decreased 4.1% in the second quarter of 2017, compared to the same period in 2016.

Included in the 2017 second quarter operating income and OIBDAN were $10.8 million of direct operating and SG&A expenses and $2.3 million of corporate expenses associated with the Company’s strategic revenue and efficiency initiatives, compared to $6.8 million and $0.1 million of such expenses in the prior year, respectively.

iHeartMedia

iHeartMedia revenues increased $16.5 million, or 1.9%, during the second quarter of 2017 as compared to the second quarter of 2016, with growth in national revenue and other revenue being partially offset by lower local revenue. National revenue grew in response to our national sales initiatives and investments and increased programmatic buying, as well as from additional trade and barter. This growth was partially offset by lower national traffic and weather revenue and the lower revenue due to the timing of the iHeartRadio Music Awards Show, which was held in April 2016. The increase in other revenue included an approximately $4.0 million cash payment received in satisfaction of an agreement related to prior years. Local revenue decreased as a result of lower spot revenue, partially offset by higher local trade and barter.

Direct operating and SG&A expenses increased $41.0 million, or 7.8%, during the second quarter of 2017 as compared to the second quarter of 2016 primarily due to higher trade and barter, investments in national and digital sales capabilities, higher content and programming costs, higher variable expenses, including sales activation and commissions and higher spending on strategic revenue and efficiency initiatives.

Operating income decreased 7.2% to $262.5 million, and OIBDAN decreased 7.1% to $321.3 million for the second quarter of 2017 as compared to the second quarter of 2016. Each of operating income and OIBDAN for 2017 includes $8.9 million in expenses related to investments in strategic revenue and efficiency initiatives compared to $5.6 million in the 2016 period.

Americas Outdoor

Americas outdoor revenues decreased $1.6 million, or 0.5%, during the second quarter of 2017 as compared to the second quarter of 2016. Revenues decreased $2.1 million, or 0.6%, after adjusting for a $0.5 million impact from movements in foreign exchange rates. The decrease in revenue is primarily due to a $2.9 million decrease in revenue resulting from the exchange of outdoor markets and a decrease in print display revenues. This was partially offset by increased revenue from digital billboards, as well as higher revenue from new print wall displays.

Direct operating and SG&A expenses increased $2.0 million, or 1.0%, during the second quarter of 2017 as compared to the second quarter of 2016. Direct operating and SG&A expenses increased $1.7 million, or 0.8%, after adjusting for a $0.3 million impact from movements in foreign exchange rates. Direct operating and SG&A expenses increased primarily from the impact of a $2.9 million early termination lease payment received in 2016 and higher fixed site lease expenses, partially offset by lower marketing, bad debt and bonus expenses.

Operating income decreased 1.7% to $78.7 million during the second quarter of 2017 as compared to the second quarter of 2016, resulting primarily from the exchange of the outdoor markets in the first quarter of 2017. OIBDAN decreased $3.6 million, or 2.8%. OIBDAN decreased $3.7 million, or 2.9%, during the second quarter 2017, after adjusting for a $0.2 million impact from movements in foreign exchange rates. Operating income and OIBDAN in the second quarter of 2017 each included $0.3 million in expenses related to investments in strategic revenue and efficiency initiatives compared to $0.6 million in the 2016 period.

International Outdoor

International outdoor revenues decreased $34.2 million, or 8.9%, during the second quarter of 2017 as compared to the second quarter of 2016. Revenues increased $17.8 million, or 5.1%, after adjusting for a $16.0 million impact from movements in foreign exchange rates and the $36.1 million impact from the sale of our businesses in Australia and Turkey. The increase is primarily due to growth across several markets including Spain, Switzerland, the United Kingdom and China, primarily from new contracts and digital expansion.

Direct operating and SG&A expenses decreased $23.5 million, or 7.8%, during the second quarter of 2017 as compared to the second quarter of 2016. Direct operating and SG&A expenses increased $18.3 million, or 6.8%, after adjusting for a $12.7 million impact from movements in foreign exchange rates and the $29.1 million impact from the sale of our businesses in Australia and Turkey. Direct operating and SG&A expenses increased primarily due to higher site lease expense in countries experiencing revenue growth.

Operating income decreased 9.2% to $40.6 million during the second quarter of 2017 as compared to the second quarter of 2016. OIBDAN decreased $10.7 million, or 12.9%. OIBDAN decreased $0.5 million, or 0.6%, during the second quarter 2017, after adjusting for a $3.3 million impact from movements in foreign exchange rates and the $7.0 million impact from the sale of our businesses in Australia and Turkey. Operating income and OIBDAN in the second quarter of 2017 each include $1.1 million in expenses related to investments in strategic revenue and efficiency initiatives compared to $0.6 million in the 2016 period.

Liquidity and Financial Position

As of June 30, 2017, we had $260.5 million of cash on our balance sheet, including $163.1 million of cash held by our subsidiary, CCOH. A total of $146.2 million of our cash is held outside the U.S. For the six months ended June 30, 2017, cash

used for operating activities was $454.4 million, cash used for investing activities was $81.3 million, cash used for financing activities was $55.6 million, and the effect of exchange rate changes on cash totaled $6.7 million. The net decrease in cash from December 31, 2016 was $584.6 million.

Capital expenditures for the six months ended June 30, 2017 were $136.6 million compared to $123.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2016. We estimate capital expenditures for 2017 to be between $300 million and $325 million.

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

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

On February 9, 2017, CCOH declared a special dividend of $282.5 million using a portion of the proceeds from the sales of certain U.S. outdoor markets and of our Australia business, which was paid on February 23, 2017. We received 89.9% of the dividend or approximately $254.0 million, with the remaining 10.1% or approximately $28.5 million, paid to public stockholders of CCOH.

On March 15, 2017, iHeartCommunications commenced exchange offers to exchange certain series of its outstanding debt securities for new securities of the Company, iHeartCommunications and CC Outdoor Holdings, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and concurrent consent solicitations with respect to the terms of the existing notes. On March 15, 2017, the Company also commenced offers to amend its outstanding Term Loan D and Term Loan E borrowings under its senior secured credit facility and/or issue new securities of the Company, CC Outdoor Holdings, Inc., Broader Media, LLC and/or iHeartCommunications to participating lenders. The notes exchange were amended on April 14, 2017. Both the notes exchange offers and the term loan offers were open as of August 3, 2017.

On July 10, 2017, we exchanged $15.6 million principal amount of our 10.0% Senior Notes due 2018 for $15.6 million principal amount of newly-issued 11.25% Priority Guarantee Notes due 2021, which were issued as “additional notes” under the indenture governing the 11.25% Priority Guarantee Notes due 2021.

The senior secured credit facilities require us to comply on a quarterly basis with a financial covenant limiting the ratio of consolidated secured debt, net of cash and cash equivalents, to consolidated EBITDA (as defined by iHeartCommunications’ senior secured credit facilities) for the preceding four quarters. We were in compliance with this covenant and, except as otherwise disclosed in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed on August 3, 2017, the other covenants in the senior secured credit facilities and in iHeartCommunications’ other material financing agreements as of June 30, 2017.

For the year ended December 31, 2016, we adopted a new accounting standard that requires us to evaluate on a quarterly basis whether there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for a period of 12 months following the date our financial statements are issued. A substantial amount of our cash requirements are for debt service obligations. Although we have generated operating income in each of the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, we incurred net losses and had negative cash flows from operations for each of these years as a result of significant cash interest payments arising from our substantial debt balance. Our current forecast indicates we will continue to incur net losses and generate negative cash flows from operating activities as a result of our indebtedness and significant related interest expense. During the six months ended June 30, 2017, we spent $905.2 million of cash on payments of principal and interest on our debt and anticipate having approximately $549.9 million and $337.4 million of cash interest payment obligations for each of the quarters ended September

30, 2017 and December 31, 2017, respectively. At June 30, 2017, the Company had debt maturities totaling $317.6 million, $324.0 million (net of $261.5 million due to certain of our subsidiaries) and $8,368.9 million in 2017, 2018 and 2019, respectively. On July 10, 2017, we exchanged $15.6 million in aggregate principal amount of 11.25% Priority Guarantee Notes due 2021 that were held by our subsidiary for $15.6 million of aggregate principal amount outstanding of its 10.0% Senior Notes due 2018 that were held by an unaffiliated third-party. On July 31, 2017, we borrowed an additional $60.0 million under the receivables based credit facility. After the exchange and after the additional borrowings under the receivables based credit facility, our debt maturities in the next 12 months include $365.0 million outstanding under our receivables based credit facility, which matures on December 24, 2017, $96.5 million of 10% Senior Notes due January 15, 2018 and $175.0 million of 6.875% Senior Notes due June 15, 2018. Our forecast also includes approximately $1.8 billion in cash interest payments in the next 12 months, of which $549.9 million and $337.4 million of cash interest payment obligations are due in each of the quarters ending September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2017, respectively. If we are unable to refinance or extend the receivables based credit facility, the 10% Senior Notes due January 15, 2018, and/or the 6.875% Senior Notes due June 15, 2018 and take other steps to create additional liquidity, forecasted cash flows would not be sufficient for us to meet our obligations, including upcoming interest payments and maturities, as they become due in the ordinary course of business for a period of 12 months following August 3, 2017.

Supplemental Disclosure Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Information

The following tables set forth the Company’s OIBDAN for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016. The Company defines OIBDAN as consolidated operating income adjusted to exclude non-cash compensation expenses, included within corporate expenses, as well as the following line items presented in its Statement of Comprehensive Loss: Depreciation and amortization; Impairment charges; and Other operating income (expense), net.

The Company uses OIBDAN, among other measures, to evaluate the Company’s operating performance. This measure is among the primary measures used by management for the planning and forecasting of future periods, as well as for measuring

performance for compensation of executives and other members of management. We believe this measure is an important indicator of the Company’s operational strength and performance of its business because it provides a link between operational performance and operating income. It is also a primary measure used by management in evaluating companies as potential acquisition targets.

The Company believes the presentation of this measure is relevant and useful for investors because it allows investors to view performance in a manner similar to the method used by the Company’s management. The Company believes it helps improve investors’ ability to understand the Company’s operating performance and makes it easier to compare the Company’s results with other companies that have different capital structures or tax rates. In addition, the Company believes this measure is also among the primary measures used externally by the Company’s investors, analysts and peers in its industry for purposes of valuation and comparing the operating performance of the Company to other companies in its industry.

Since OIBDAN is not a measure calculated in accordance with GAAP, it should not be considered in isolation of, or as a substitute for, operating income as an indicator of operating performance and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies. OIBDAN is not necessarily a measure of the Company’s ability to fund its cash needs. As it excludes certain financial information compared with operating income, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, users of this financial information should consider the types of events and transactions which are excluded.

The other non-GAAP financial measures presented in the tables below are: (i) revenues, direct operating and SG&A expenses and OIBDAN, each excluding the effects of foreign exchange rates; (ii) revenues, direct operating and SG&A expenses and OIBDAN, each excluding the effects of foreign exchange rates and the results from outdoor markets and businesses sold; (iii) revenues excluding political advertising revenues and (iv) corporate expenses, excluding non-cash compensation expenses and effects of foreign exchange rates.

The Company presents revenues, direct operating and SG&A expenses and OIBDAN, each excluding the effects of foreign exchange rates, because management believes that viewing certain financial results without the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency rates facilitates period to period comparisons of business performance and provides useful information to investors. A significant portion of the Company’s advertising operations are conducted in foreign markets, principally Europe, the U.K. and China, and management reviews the results from its foreign operations on a constant dollar basis. Revenues, direct operating and SG&A expenses and OIBDAN, each excluding the effects of foreign exchange rates, are calculated by converting the current period’s amounts in local currency to U.S. dollars using average foreign exchange rates for the prior period.

In the first quarter of 2016, the Company sold nine non-strategic Americas outdoor markets, in the second quarter of 2016, the Company sold its business in Turkey and in the fourth quarter of 2016, the Company sold its business in Australia. In the first quarter of 2017, the Company sold its Indianapolis market. The Company presents revenues, direct operating and SG&A expenses and OIBDAN, each excluding the effects of foreign exchange rates and the results from outdoor markets and businesses sold, for the consolidated Company and the Americas and International outdoor segments, in order to facilitate investors’ understanding of operational trends without the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency rates and without the results from the outdoor markets and businesses that were sold, as these results will not be included in the Company’s results in current and future periods.

The Company presents revenues excluding the effects of political revenue. Due to the cyclical nature of the electoral system and the seasonality of the related political revenues, management believes presenting revenue excluding the effects of political revenue provides additional information to investors about the Company’s revenue growth from period to period.

Corporate expenses excluding the effects of non-cash compensation expenses and the effects of foreign exchange rates is presented as OIBDAN excludes non-cash compensation expenses.

Since these non-GAAP financial measures are not calculated in accordance with GAAP, they should not be considered in isolation of, or as a substitute for, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures as an indicator of operating performance.

As required by the SEC rules, the Company provides reconciliations below to the most directly comparable amounts reported under GAAP, including (i) OIBDAN, excluding effects of foreign exchange and OIBDAN for each segment to consolidated and segment operating income (loss); (ii) revenues excluding effects of foreign exchange rates to revenues (iii); direct operating and SG&A expenses excluding effects of foreign exchange to direct operating and SG&A expenses; (iv) revenues excluding political advertising revenues to revenues; (v) corporate expenses excluding non-cash compensation expenses and effects of foreign exchange to corporate expenses; (vi) consolidated and outdoor revenues, excluding effects of foreign exchange rates and results from outdoor markets and businesses sold, to consolidated and outdoor revenues; (vii) consolidated and outdoor direct operating and SG&A expenses, excluding the effects of foreign exchange rates and results from outdoor markets and businesses sold, to consolidated and outdoor direct operating and SG&A expenses; and (vii) consolidated and outdoor OIBDAN, excluding effects of foreign exchange rates and results from outdoor markets sold, to consolidated and outdoor operating income.
