Gray Television, Inc.

Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements of Gray give effect to the Raycom Transactions, including Gray’s merger (the “Raycom Merger”) with, among others, Raycom Media, Inc. (“Raycom”) for an adjusted purchase price of approximately $3.670 billion, the offering of 7.000% Senior Notes due 2027 (the “2027 Notes”), the funding of an amendment and restatement of Gray’s existing senior credit facility (such amended and restated facility, the “2019 Senior Credit Facility”) including the borrowing of $1.4 billion of incremental term loans (the “Incremental Term Loans”) under the 2019 Senior Credit Facility, and the payment of fees and expenses in connection with each of the foregoing, and the divestiture of one of Gray’s existing television stations and eight of Raycom’s existing television stations concurrently with the execution of the Raycom Merger to facilitate regulatory approvals, as if these transactions had all been consummated on January 1, 2017.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and the year ended December 31, 2017 were prepared based on the historical: (i) condensed consolidated statements of operations of Gray; and (ii) condensed consolidated carve-out statements of operations of Raycom, giving pro forma effect to the Raycom Transactions and the divestiture of television stations as if they had all been consummated on January 1, 2017. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet was prepared based on the historical: (i) condensed consolidated balance sheet of Gray and (ii) condensed consolidated carve-out balance sheet of Raycom, each as of September 30, 2018, giving pro forma effect to the Raycom Transactions and the divestiture of television stations as if they had all been consummated on September 30, 2018.

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information was prepared using the acquisition method of accounting, with Gray considered the acquirer of Raycom. Under the acquisition method of accounting, the purchase price is allocated to the underlying tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their respective fair values at the date of acquisition, with any excess purchase price allocated to goodwill. To date, Gray has completed only a preliminary allocation of the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the Raycom Merger, and is in the process of completing a final allocation of such purchase price. The final purchase price allocation may differ from that reflected in the following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements, and these differences may be material.

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is being provided for illustrative purposes only and does not purport to represent what the actual consolidated results of operations of Gray would have been had the Raycom Transactions occurred on the date assumed or any other date, nor is it necessarily indicative of Gray’s future results of operations for any future period or as of any future date. The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is based upon currently available information and estimates and assumptions that Gray management believes are reasonable as of the date hereof. Any of the factors underlying these estimates and assumptions may change or prove to be materially different.

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information should be read in conjunction with the unaudited interim historical consolidated financial statements as of and for the nine month period ended September 30, 2018 and the audited historical consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2017 of Gray, which have been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and the unaudited interim historical consolidated carve-out financial statements as of and for the nine month period ended September 30, 2018 and the audited historical consolidated carve-out financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2017 of Raycom, incorporated by reference into this Current Report on Form 8-K.

Gray has incurred significant costs, and expects to achieve certain revenue and other synergies, in connection with the completion of the Raycom Merger and the integration of the acquired operations. The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements do not reflect the costs of any integration activities or benefits that may result from realization of future cost savings from operating efficiencies, or any revenue, tax or other synergies expected to result from the Raycom Merger. Assumptions underlying the pro forma adjustments are described in the accompanying notes, which should be read in conjunction with the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements.

The accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements present the pro forma condensed combined financial position and results of operations of the combined company based upon the historical financial statements of each of Gray and Raycom, after giving effect to the Raycom Transactions and the divestitures of the television stations, including the pro forma adjustments described in these notes, and are intended to reflect the impact of the transactions on Gray’s historical consolidated results of operations. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and year ended December 31, 2017 combine the historical consolidated statements of operations of Gray with the historical condensed consolidated carve-out statements of operations of Raycom, as if the Raycom Transactions and the divestiture of television stations had occurred as of January 1, 2017. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of September 30, 2018 combines the historical consolidated balance sheet of Gray with the historical condensed consolidated carve-out balance sheet of Raycom, as if the Raycom Transactions and the divestiture of television stations had occurred as of September 30, 2018. The accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared using, and should be read in conjunction with, the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of Gray and the unaudited interim condensed consolidated carve-out financial statements of Raycom as of and for the nine month period ended September 30, 2018, and the audited consolidated financial statements of Gray and the audited consolidated carve-out financial statements of Raycom for their fiscal years ended December 31, 2017.

The accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is presented for illustrative purposes only and does not reflect the costs of any integration activities or benefits that may result from realization of future costs savings due to operating efficiencies or revenue synergies expected to result from the Raycom Merger.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information was prepared using the acquisition method of accounting with Gray considered the acquirer of Raycom. The following adjustments are reflected:

 

  (a)

Upon consummation of the Raycom Merger, Raycom’s accounting policies will be conformed to those of Gray. Gray has identified preliminary adjustments to Raycom’s accounting policies to those of Gray based upon currently available information and assumptions management believes to be reasonable. Financial information presented in the “Raycom” column in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for nine months ended September 30, 2018 and the year ended December 31, 2017, has been reclassified to conform to that of Gray as indicated in the table below (in thousands):

In order to conform with the treatment of representation fees for Gray’s financial reporting, the $8.5 million and $10.1 million of Raycom’s representation fees for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and for the year ended December 31, 2017, respectively, have been reclassified out of Agency commissions and representation fees into Broadcast operating expenses.

In order to conform with the treatment of corporate and administrative expenses for Gray’s financial reporting, the $26.8 million and $39.1 million of Raycom’s expenses related to corporate and administrative costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and for the year ended December 31, 2017, respectively, have been reclassified out of Selling, general, and administrative expenses into Corporate and administrative operating expenses.

Management of Gray is currently in the process of conducting a more detailed review of Raycom’s accounting policies to determine if differences in accounting policies require any further reclassification of Raycom’s financials to conform to Gray’s accounting policies and classifications. As a result, Gray may identify additional differences between the accounting policies of the two companies that, when conformed, could have a material impact on these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements.

The preliminary allocation of the estimated purchase price is based upon management’s estimate of fair values using valuation techniques including the income, cost and market approaches. In estimating the fair value of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities, the fair value estimates are based on, but not limited to, expected future revenue and cash flows, expected future growth rates, and estimated discount rates.

Property and equipment will be depreciated over their estimated useful lives ranging from 5 years to 39 years.

The amount related to other intangible assets represents the estimated fair values of retransmission agreements, advertising contracts, advertising relationships, and other intangible assets. These intangible assets are being amortized over their estimated useful lives of 5 years.

Goodwill is calculated as the excess of the consideration transferred over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired and liabilities assumed, and represents the future economic benefits expected to arise from other intangible assets acquired that do not qualify for separate recognition, including assembled workforce, as well as future synergies that we expect to generate from the Raycom Merger. We have preliminarily estimated $1,053.1 million of goodwill in connection with the Raycom Merger.

The fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed were based upon preliminary valuations performed for the preparation of the pro forma financial information and are subject to the final valuations that will be completed after consummation of the Raycom Merger. These estimates and assumptions are subject to change within the measurement period as additional information is obtained. A decrease in the fair value of the assets acquired or liabilities assumed in the Raycom Merger from the preliminary valuations presented would result in a dollar-for-dollar corresponding increase in the amount of goodwill resulting from the Raycom Merger. In addition, if the value of the property and equipment and other intangible assets is higher than the amount included in these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements, it may result in higher depreciation and amortization expense than is presented herein. Any such increases could be material, and could result in the Company’s actual future financial condition or results of operations differing materially from that presented herein.

In connection with the consummation of the Raycom Merger, Gray entered into an amendment and restatement of its existing senior credit facility on January 2, 2019 (such amended facility, the “2019 Senior Credit Facility”), under which Gray borrowed $1.4 billion of Incremental Term Loans. Additionally in association with the consummation of the Raycom Merger, Gray issued $750 million in aggregate principal of its 2027 Notes. Gray used the proceeds of the Incremental Term Loans and the 2027 Notes to pay a portion of the cash consideration to complete the Raycom Merger and to pay related fees and expenses for the Raycom Transactions. These adjustments reflect the impact of the borrowings under the 2019 Senior Credit Facility, and the issuance of the 2027 Notes, as follows:

 

  1.

the elimination of interest expense of $131.7 million and $163.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and the year ended December 31, 2017, respectively, in each case relating to credit facilities which were repaid upon consummation of the Raycom Merger and not assumed by Gray;

 

  2.

the inclusion of estimated incremental interest expense of $91.9 million and $122.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and the year ended December 31, 2017, respectively, in each case relating to the amounts outstanding under the 2019 Senior Credit Facility and the 2027 Notes; and

 

  3.

additional amortization expense of $5.9 million and $7.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and the year ended December 31, 2017, respectively, in each case relating to the deferred financing charges incurred in connection with the 2019 Senior Credit Facility and the 2027 Notes.

 

  (g)

Adjustments to reflect income tax benefit of $8.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and income tax expense of $88.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2017, resulting from the Raycom Merger and pro forma adjustments to the condensed combined statements of operations based on estimated combined federal and state effective income tax rates of 25.4% and 39.0% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and the year ended December 31, 2017, respectively.

 

  (h)

Adjustments to reflect mandatory and cumulative dividends in the amount of $39.0 million and $52.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and the year ended December 31, 2017, respectively, in each case relating to $650.0 million of the Gray’s preferred stock with an annual dividend rate of 8% that was issued to certain securityholders of Raycom in connection with the consummation of the Raycom Merger.
