Item 2.02.      Results of Operations and Financial Condition

 

                On May 6, 2008, Entercom Communications Corp. (the “Company”) issued a press release (the “Press Release”) announcing updated first quarter 2008 results.  Such results have been updated to reflect events occurring after the release of preliminary financial results for the first quarter of 2008 on April 24, 2008.  Specifically, the Company announced the following updated results for the first quarter of 2008:

 

                ·              net revenues of $95.4 million;

                ·              station operating expenses of $64.1 million;

                ·              operating income of $27.1 million;

                —              income from continuing operations of $9.2 million; and

                ·              net income of $5.2 million.

 

                The previously announced financial results were updated to reflect a court ruling in a pending litigation matter which occurred subsequent to the Company’s previous earnings announcement.  Specifically, on April 30, 2008, the Company received notice that the California Superior court ruled on the distribution of interest income on certain funds held in escrow since 2003 in connection with the Company’s acquisition of KWOD in Sacramento California.  The Company’s estimate of its share of interest income differed from the allocation as determined by the court.  As a result of this ruling, the Company increased reported interest expense in the first quarter by $0.9 million ($0.5 million net of tax benefit).

 

                A copy of the Press Release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.  The information in this Current Report on Form 8-K and the Exhibit attached hereto, shall not be deemed to be “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall such information be deemed to be incorporated by reference in any filing of the Company, whether made before or after the date hereof, regardless of any general incorporation language in such filing.
