1. Description
of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting
Policies
Description
of Business
We
are a television broadcast company headquartered in
Atlanta, Georgia, that owns and operates television
stations broadcasting 40 primary channels and 45 secondary
channels in 30 television markets. Nineteen of our primary
channels and one secondary channel are affiliated with the
CBS Network owned by CBS Inc. (“CBS”), ten
primary channels are affiliated with the NBC Network owned
by National Broadcasting Company, Inc. (“NBC”),
eight primary channels and one secondary channel are
affiliated with the ABC Network owned by American
Broadcasting Company (“ABC”), and three primary
channels and two secondary channels are affiliated with the
FOX Network owned by the FOX Broadcasting Company
(“FOX”).
Within
a market, our secondary broadcast channels are generally
affiliated with networks different from those affiliated
with our primary broadcast channels, and are operated by us
to make better use of our broadcast spectrum by providing
supplemental and/or alternative programming to our primary
channels. Certain of our secondary channels are
affiliated with more than one network simultaneously. In
addition to ABC, CBS and FOX, our secondary channels are
affiliated with the following networks: the CW Network or
the CW Plus Network, both owned by The CW Network, LLC,
Master Distribution Service, Inc. (an affiliate of
Twentieth Television, Inc.), the MeTV Network owned by
Weigel Broadcasting Co., This TV Network also owned by
Weigel Broadcasting, Untamed Sports Network, the Country
Network and Antenna TV. We also broadcast nine local
news/weather channels in certain of our existing
markets.
In
addition, we have entered into agreements to acquire one
full-power television station and two low power television
stations in the Lincoln, Nebraska market, and one low power
television station in Dothan, Alabama. We anticipate
completing these acquisitions in the first and second
quarters of 2013, respectively.
Principles
of Consolidation
The
consolidated financial statements include our accounts and
the accounts of our subsidiaries. All
significant intercompany accounts and transactions have
been eliminated.
Revenue
Recognition
Broadcast
advertising revenue is generated primarily from the sale of
television advertising time to local, national and
political advertisers. Internet advertising revenue is
generated from the sale of advertisements associated with
our stations’ websites. Our aggregate internet
revenue is derived from two sources. The first is
advertising or sponsorship opportunities directly on our
websites, referred to as “direct internet
revenue.” The other source is television advertising
time purchased by our clients to directly promote their
involvement in our websites, referred to as
“internet-related commercial time sales.” Advertising
revenue is billed to the customer and recognized when the
advertisement is broadcast or appears on our
stations’ websites. Retransmission consent revenue
consists of payments to us from cable and satellite
distribution systems for their retransmission of our
broadcast signals. Retransmission consent revenue is
recognized as earned over the life of the retransmission
consent contract. Other revenue consist primarily of
revenue earned from the production of programming and
payments from tower space rent. Revenue from the production
of programming is recognized as the programming is
produced. Tower rent is recognized over the life of the
rental agreements. Consulting revenue is generated from
consulting services provided and typically includes a base
and an incentive component. Revenue from the base component
is fixed and is recognized on a straight line basis over
the term of the consulting agreement. Revenue from the
incentive component, if any, is variable and is determined
by performance. Revenue from the incentive component of a
consulting agreement is recognized when the amount earned
becomes estimable and payment is probable.
Cash
received which has not yet been recognized as revenue is
presented as deferred revenue. Revenue which has
been earned but not yet received is recognized as revenue
and presented as a receivable.
Barter
Transactions
We
account for trade barter transactions involving the
exchange of tangible goods or services with our customers
as revenue. The revenue is recorded at the time the
advertisement is broadcast and the expense is recorded at
the time the goods or services are used. The revenue and
expense associated with these transactions are based on the
fair value of the assets or services involved in the
transaction. Trade barter revenue and expense recognized by
us for each of the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and
2010 were as follows (amounts in thousands):
We
do not account for barter revenue and related barter
expense generated from network or syndicated programming as
such amounts are not material. Furthermore, any such barter
revenue recognized would then require the recognition of an
equal amount of barter expense. The recognition of these
amounts would not have a material effect upon net
income.
Advertising
Expense
We
recorded advertising expense of $0.9 million, $0.8 million
and $0.8 million for the years ended December 31, 2012,
2011 and 2010, respectively. We expense all advertising
expenditures as they are incurred.
Use
of Estimates
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America (“GAAP”) requires management
to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts
reported in the financial statements and accompanying
notes. Our actual results could materially differ from
these estimated amounts. Our most significant estimates are
used for our allowance for doubtful accounts in
receivables, valuation of goodwill and intangible assets,
amortization of program rights and intangible assets,
pension costs, income taxes, employee medical insurance
claims, useful lives of property and equipment,
contingencies and litigation.
Allowance
for Doubtful Accounts
Our
allowance for doubtful accounts is equal to at least 85% of
our receivable balances that are 120 days old or
older. We may provide allowances for certain
receivable that are less than 120 days old when warranted
by specific facts and circumstances. We recorded expenses
for this allowance of $0.1 million, $1.9 million and $0.7
million for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and
2010, respectively. We generally write-off accounts
receivable balances when the customer files for bankruptcy
or when all commonly used methods of collection have been
exhausted.
Program
Broadcast Rights
The total
license fee payable under a program license agreement
allowing us to broadcast programs is recorded at the
beginning of the license period and is charged to operating
expense over the period that the programs are broadcast.
The portion of the unamortized balance expected to be
charged to operating expense in the succeeding year is
classified as a current asset, with the remainder
classified as a non-current asset. The liability
for license fees payable under program license agreements
is classified as current or long-term, in accordance with
the payment terms of the various license agreements.
Property
and Equipment
Property and
equipment are carried at cost. Depreciation is computed
principally by the straight-line
method. Maintenance, repairs and minor
replacements are charged to operations as incurred; major
replacements and betterments are capitalized. The cost of
any assets sold or retired and related accumulated
depreciation are removed from the accounts at the time of
disposition, and any resulting profit or loss is reflected
in income or expense for the period. The following table
lists components of property and equipment by major
category (dollars in thousands):
On March 22,
2011, our primary broadcast tower for WEAU-TV, our station
which serves the La Crosse – Eau Claire, Wisconsin
market, collapsed during inclement weather. Our loss of
property due to the tower collapse was covered by
insurance, subject to a deductible of
$50,000. For the year ended December 31, 2012,
we received insurance proceeds of $0.8 million for the
collapsed tower, recorded a gain on disposals of assets
of $0.8 million for the
collapsed tower and recorded capital expenditures of
$0.4
million for
construction of the new tower. For the year
ended December 31, 2011, we received insurance proceeds
of $3.2 million for the
collapsed tower, recorded a gain on disposals of assets
of $3.0 million for the
collapsed tower and recorded capital expenditures of
$3.9
million for
construction of the new tower. For the year ended December
31, 2011, we received an additional $450,000 of proceeds
from business interruption insurance, which was recorded as
a reduction of broadcast expense. For the year ended
December 31, 2012, we did not receive any proceeds from
business interruption insurance.
Deferred
Loan Costs
Loan
acquisition costs are amortized over the life of the
applicable indebtedness using a straight-line method that
approximates the effective interest method.
Asset
Retirement Obligations
We
own office equipment, broadcasting equipment, leasehold
improvements and transmission towers, some of which are
located on, or are housed in, leased property or
facilities. At the conclusion of several of these leases we
are legally obligated to dismantle, remove and otherwise
properly dispose of and remediate the facility or property.
We estimate our asset retirement obligations based upon the
cash flows of the costs expected to be incurred and the net
present value of those estimated amounts. The asset
retirement obligation is recognized as a non-current
liability and as a component of the cost of the related
asset. Changes to our asset retirement obligation resulting
from revisions to the timing or the amount of the original
undiscounted cash flow estimates are recognized as an
increase or decrease to the carrying amount of the asset
retirement obligation and the related asset retirement cost
capitalized as part of the related property, plant, or
equipment. Changes in the asset retirement obligation
resulting from accretion of the net present value of the
estimated cash flows are recognized as operating expenses.
We recognize depreciation expense of the capitalized cost
over the estimated life of the lease. Our estimated
obligations become due at varying times during the years
2013 through 2059. The liability recognized for our asset
retirement obligations was approximately $505,000 and
$465,000 as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
Related to our asset retirement obligations, for the years
ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, we recorded an
expense of $25,000, $5,000 and $28,000,
respectively.
Concentration
of Credit Risk
We sell
advertising air-time on our broadcasts and advertising
space on our websites to national and local advertisers
within the geographic areas in which we operate. Credit is
extended based on an evaluation of the customer’s
financial condition, and generally advance payment is not
required except for political advertising. Credit losses
are provided for in the financial statements and
consistently have been within our expectations that are
based upon our prior experience.
For
the year ended December 31, 2012, approximately 18%, 8% and
7% of our broadcast advertising revenue was obtained from
advertising sales to advertising customers in the
automotive, medical and restaurant industries,
respectively. We experienced similar industry-based
concentrations of revenue in the years ended December 31,
2011 and 2010. Although our revenues can be affected by
changes within these industries, we believe this risk is in
part mitigated due to the fact that no one customer
accounted for in excess of 5% of our broadcast advertising
revenue in any of these periods. Furthermore, we believe
that our large geographic operating area partially
mitigates the potential effect of regional economic
changes.
Earnings
Per Share
We
compute basic earnings per share by dividing net income
(loss) available to common stockholders by the
weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during
the relevant period. The weighted-average number of common
shares outstanding does not include restricted shares.
These shares, although classified as issued and
outstanding, are considered contingently returnable until
the restrictions lapse and, in accordance with GAAP, are
not included in the basic earnings per share calculation
until the shares vest. Diluted earnings per share is
computed by including all potentially dilutive common
shares, including restricted stock and shares underlying
stock options, in the diluted weighted-average shares
outstanding calculation, unless their inclusion would be
antidilutive.
The
following table reconciles basic weighted-average shares
outstanding to diluted weighted-average shares outstanding
for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 (in
thousands):
Investment
in Broadcasting Company
We
have an investment in Sarkes Tarzian, Inc.
(“Tarzian”) whose principal business is the
ownership and operation of two television stations. As of
June 30, 2012, the most recent period for which we have
Tarzian’s financial statements, our investment
represented 32.4% of the total outstanding common stock of
Tarzian (both in terms of the number of shares of common
stock outstanding and in terms of voting rights), but such
investment represented 67.9% of the equity of Tarzian for
purposes of dividends, if paid, as well as distributions in
the event of any liquidation, dissolution or other sale of
Tarzian. This investment is accounted for under the cost
method of accounting and reflected as a non-current asset.
We have no commitment to fund operations of Tarzian and we
have neither representation on Tarzian’s board of
directors nor any other influence over Tarzian’s
management. We believe the cost method is appropriate to
account for this investment given the existence of a single
voting majority stockholder and our lack of management
influence.
Valuation
of Broadcast Licenses, Goodwill and Other Intangible
Assets
From
January 1, 1994 through December 31, 2012, we acquired 33
television stations. We completed our most recent
acquisition on March 3, 2006. Among the assets acquired in
these transactions were broadcast licenses issued by the
Federal Communications Commission, goodwill and other
intangible assets.
For
broadcast licenses acquired prior to January 1, 2002, we
recorded their respective values using a residual method
(analogous to “goodwill”) where the excess of
the purchase price paid in the acquisition over the fair
value of all identified tangible and intangible assets
acquired was attributed to the broadcast license. This
residual basis approach generally produces higher
valuations of broadcast licenses when compared to
applying an income method as discussed below.
For broadcast licenses acquired after December 31, 2001,
we recorded their respective values using an income
approach. Under this approach, a broadcast license is
valued based on analyzing the estimated after-tax
discounted future cash flows of the acquired station,
assuming an initial hypothetical start-up
operation
maturing into an average performing station in a specific
television market and giving consideration to other
relevant factors such as the technical qualities of the
broadcast license and the number of competing broadcast
licenses within that market. The income approach generally
produces lower valuations of broadcast licenses when
compared to applying the residual method. For
television stations acquired after December 31, 2001, we
allocate the residual value of the station to
goodwill.
When
renewing broadcast licenses, we incur regulatory filing
fees and legal fees. We expense these fees as
they are incurred.
Other
intangible assets that we have acquired include network
affiliation agreements, advertising contracts, client
lists, talent contracts and leases. Each of our stations is
affiliated with at least one broadcast network. We believe
that the value of a television station is derived primarily
from the attributes of its broadcast license rather than
its network affiliation agreement. As a result, we have
allocated minimal values to our network affiliation
agreements. We have classified our other
intangible assets as definite-lived intangible assets. The
amortization period of our other intangible assets is equal
to the shorter of their estimated useful life or contract
period. When renewing other intangible asset contracts, we
incur legal fees which are expensed as incurred.
Annual
Impairment Testing of Intangible Assets
We
test for impairment of our intangible assets on an annual
basis on the last day of each fiscal
year. However, if certain triggering events
occur, we will test for impairment during the relevant
reporting period.
For
purposes of testing goodwill for impairment, each of our
individual television stations is considered a separate
reporting unit. We review each television station for
possible goodwill impairment by comparing the estimated
fair value of each respective reporting unit to the
recorded value of that reporting unit’s net assets.
If the estimated fair value exceeds the recorded net asset
value, no goodwill impairment is deemed to exist. If the
estimated fair value of the reporting unit does not exceed
the recorded value of that reporting unit’s net
assets, we then perform, on a notional basis, a purchase
price allocation by allocating the reporting unit’s
fair value to the fair value of all tangible and
identifiable intangible assets with residual fair value
representing the implied fair value of goodwill of that
reporting unit. The recorded value of goodwill
for the reporting unit is written down to this implied
value.
To
estimate the fair value of our reporting units, we utilize
a discounted cash flow model supported by a market multiple
approach. We believe that a discounted cash flow
analysis is the most appropriate methodology to test the
recorded value of long-term assets with a demonstrated
long-lived / enduring franchise value. We
believe the results of the discounted cash flow and market
multiple approaches provide reasonable estimates of the
fair value of our reporting units because these approaches
are based on our actual results and reasonable estimates of
future performance, and also take into consideration a
number of other factors deemed relevant by us, including
but not limited to, expected future market revenue growth,
market revenue shares and operating profit margins. We have
historically used these approaches in determining the value
of our goodwill. We also consider a market
multiple approach utilizing market multiples to corroborate
our discounted cash flow analysis. We believe
that this methodology is consistent with the approach that
a strategic market participant would utilize if they were
to value one of our television stations.
For
testing of our broadcast licenses and other intangible
assets for potential impairment of their recorded asset
values, we compare their estimated fair value to the
respective asset’s recorded value. If the
fair value is greater than the asset’s recorded
value, no impairment expense is recorded. If the
fair value does not exceed the asset’s recorded
value, we record an impairment expense equal to the
amount
that the asset’s recorded value exceeded the
asset’s fair value. We use the income method to
estimate the fair value of all broadcast licenses
irrespective of whether they were initially recorded using
the residual or income methods.
For
further discussion of our goodwill, broadcast licenses and
other intangible assets, see Note 11. “Goodwill and
Intangible Assets”.
Market
Capitalization
When
we test our broadcast licenses and goodwill for impairment,
we also consider our market capitalization. Our
market capitalization has increased from its 2008 lows. As
of December 31, 2012, our market capitalization was less
than our book value and it remains less than book value as
of the date of this filing. We believe the
decline in and sustained level of our stock price has been
influenced, in part, by the state of the general economy
beginning in 2008, and the relatively slow recovery from
the recent national economic recession. We
believe that it is appropriate to view the state of credit
markets and continued economic weakness as relatively
temporary in relation to reporting units that have
demonstrated long-lived / enduring franchise
value. Accordingly, we believe that a variance
between market capitalization and fair value can exist and
that difference could be significant at points in time due
to intervening macroeconomic influences.
Accumulated
Other Comprehensive Loss
Our
accumulated other comprehensive loss balances as of
December 31, 2012 and 2011 consist of adjustments to our
pension liabilities net of related income tax benefits as

Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
We
have reviewed all recently issued accounting
pronouncements. Of those pronouncements that
have been issued but not yet effective, we do not
anticipate a material impact upon our financial statements
upon our adoption of those pronouncements.
Financial
Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting
Standards Update (“ASU”) 2012-07,
Entertainment--Films (Topic 926): Accounting for Fair Value
Information That Arises after the Measurement Date and Its
Inclusion in the Impairment Analysis of Unamortized Film
Costs
On
October 24, 2012, the FASB issued ASU No. 2012-07, Entertainment -
Films (Topic 926): Accounting for Fair Value Information
That Arises after the
Measurement Date and Its Inclusion in the Impairment
Analysis of Unamortized Film Costs. The amendments
in this ASU apply to all entities that perform impairment
assessments of unamortized film costs in accordance with
Topic 926.
The
amendments in this ASU eliminate the rebuttable presumption
that the conditions leading to the write off of unamortized
film costs after the balance sheet date existed as of the
balance sheet date. The amendments also eliminate the
requirement that an entity incorporate into fair value
measurements used in its impairment tests the effects of
any changes in estimates resulting from the consideration
of subsequent evidence if the information would not have
been considered by market participants at the measurement
date.
For
U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”)
filers, these amendments are effective for impairment
assessments performed on or after December 15, 2012. The
amendments resulting from this ASU should be applied
prospectively. Earlier application is permitted, including
for impairment assessments performed as of a date before
October 24, 2012, if, for SEC filers, the entity’s
financial statements for the most recent annual or interim
period have not yet been issued or, for all other entities,
have not yet been made available for issuance. Effective
December 15, 2012, we implemented this ASU without any
impact upon our financial statements.
FASB
ASU 2012-02, Intangibles -
Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived
Intangible Assets for Impairment
On
July 27, 2012, the FASB issued ASU No. 2012-02, Intangibles--Goodwill
and Other
(Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for
Impairment. This ASU states that an entity has the
option first to assess qualitative factors to determine
whether the existence of events and circumstances indicates
that it is more likely than not that the indefinite-lived
intangible asset is impaired. If, after assessing the
totality of events and circumstances, an entity concludes
that it is not more likely than not that the
indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired, then the
entity is not required to take further action. However, if
an entity concludes otherwise, then it is required to
determine the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible
asset and perform the quantitative impairment test by
comparing the fair value with the carrying amount in
accordance with Codification Subtopic 350-30, Intangibles--Goodwill
and Other, General Intangibles Other than
Goodwill.
Under
the guidance in this ASU, an entity also has the option to
bypass the qualitative assessment for any indefinite-lived
intangible asset in any period and proceed directly to
performing the quantitative impairment test. An entity will
be able to resume performing the qualitative assessment in
any subsequent period.
The
amendments in this ASU are effective for annual and interim
impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after
September 15, 2012. Early adoption is permitted, including
for annual and interim impairment tests performed as of a
date before July 27, 2012, if a public entity’s
financial statements for the most recent annual or interim
period have not yet been issued or, for nonpublic entities,
have not yet been made available for issuance. Effective
December 31, 2012, we implemented this ASU without any
impact upon our financial statements.
FASB
ASU 2011-08, Intangibles-Goodwill
and Other (Topic 350): Testing Goodwill for
Impairment
On
September 15, 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards
Update (ASU) No. 2011-08, Intangibles—Goodwill
and Other (Topic 350): Testing Goodwill for
Impairment. ASU 2011-08 is intended to simplify how
entities, both public and nonpublic, test goodwill for
impairment. ASU 2011-08 permits an entity to first assess
qualitative factors to determine whether it is "more likely
than not" that the fair value of a reporting unit is less
than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether
it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment
test described in Topic 350, Intangibles-Goodwill
and Other. The more-likely-than-not threshold is
defined as having a likelihood of more than 50%.
ASU
2011-08 is effective for annual and interim goodwill
impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 2011. Early adoption is permitted, including
for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed
as of a date before September 15, 2011, if an
entity’s financial statements for the most recent
annual or interim period have not yet been issued or, for
nonpublic entities, have not yet been made available for
issuance. Effective December 31, 2011, we implemented this
ASU without any impact upon our financial
statements.

2. Long-term
Debt
As
of December 31, 2012, long-term debt consisted of our
obligations under our senior credit facility (the
“2012 Senior Credit Facility”) and our 7½%
Senior Notes due 2020 (the “2020
Notes”). As of December 31, 2011,
long-term debt consisted of our obligations under our then
existing senior credit facility (the “2007 Senior
Credit Facility”) and our 10½% Senior Secured
Second Lien Notes due 2015 (the “2015
Notes”). Long-term debt
balances are as follows (in thousands):
Senior
Credit Facility
Our
2007 Senior Credit Facility consisted of a revolving loan
and a term loan. Excluding accrued interest, the
amount outstanding under our 2007 Senior Credit Facility as
of December 31, 2011 was $472.0 million
consisting of a term loan balance of $463.0 million and a
revolving loan balance of $9.0 million. As of December 31,
2011, the interest rate on the balance outstanding under
the 2007 Senior Credit Facility
was 3.8%. Also, as of December 31, 2011, we
had a deferred loan cost balance, net of accumulated
amortization, of $4.0 million related to our 2007 Senior
Credit Facility.
On
October 12, 2012 (the “Closing Date”), we
amended and restated the 2007 Senior Credit Facility in the
form of the 2012 Senior Credit Facility, with Wells Fargo
Bank, National Association, as administrative agent, Bank
of America, N.A., as syndication agent, Wells Fargo
Securities, LLC and
Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, as
joint lead arrangers and joint bookrunners, and the other
lenders party thereto.
The
proceeds from borrowings under the 2012 Senior Credit
Facility, together with cash on hand, were used to repay
all remaining amounts outstanding under the 2007 Senior
Credit Facility and to pay related fees and
expenses.
The
2012 Senior Credit Facility consists of a $40.0 million
revolving credit facility (the “2012 Revolving Credit
Facility”) and a term loan facility (the “2012
Term Loan”) having an original commitment amount of
$555.0 million. Excluding accrued interest, the amount
outstanding under our 2012 Senior Credit Facility as of
December 31, 2012 was $535.0 million consisting solely of a
term loan balance. As of December 31, 2012, the interest
rate on the balance outstanding under the 2012 Senior
Credit Facility was 4.8%. Also as of
December 31, 2012, we had a deferred loan cost balance, net
of accumulated amortization, of $4.6 million, related to
the 2012 Senior Credit Facility.
Borrowings
under the 2012 Revolving Credit Facility bear interest, at
our option, based on the Base Rate (as defined below) or
the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), in
each case plus an applicable margin based on a first lien
leverage ratio test as set forth in the 2012 Senior Credit
Facility (the “First Lien Ratio Test”). Base
Rate is defined as the greatest of (i) the administrative
agent’s prime rate, (ii) the overnight federal funds
rate plus 0.50% and (iii) one-month LIBOR plus
1.0%. We are required to pay a commitment fee on
the average daily unused portion of the 2012 Revolving
Credit Facility, which rate may range from 0.375% to 0.50%
on an annual basis, based on the First Lien Ratio
Test.
Borrowings
under the 2012 Term Loan bear interest, at our option, at
either the Base Rate plus 2.50%-2.75% or LIBOR plus
3.50%-3.75%, subject to a LIBOR floor of 1.0%. The 2012
Term Loan also requires us to make quarterly principal
repayments equal to 0.25% of the outstanding principal
amount of the 2012 Term Loan beginning December 31,
2012.
The
2012 Revolving Credit Facility matures on October 12, 2017
and the 2012 Term Loan matures on October 12,
2019.
Our
obligations under the 2012 Senior Credit Facility are
secured by substantially all of our and our
subsidiaries’ assets, including real estate. In
addition, our subsidiaries are joint and several guarantors
of the obligations and our ownership interests in our
subsidiaries are pledged to collateralize the obligations.
The 2012 Senior Credit Facility contains affirmative and
restrictive covenants that we must comply with, including
(a) limitations on additional indebtedness, (b) limitations
on liens, (c) limitations on the sale of assets, (d)
limitations on guarantees, (e) limitations on investments
and acquisitions, (f) limitations on the payment of
dividends and share repurchases, (g) limitations on
mergers, and (h) maintenance of a total leverage ratio as
set forth in the 2012 Senior Credit Facility not to exceed
certain maximum limits, as well as other customary
covenants for credit facilities of this type.
In
connection with the 2012 Senior Credit Facility, we
incurred loan issuance costs of approximately
$9.9 million, including bank fees and other
professional fees.
The
amendment and restatement of the 2007 Senior Credit
Facility was determined to be a significant modification
and, as a result, we recorded a related loss upon early
extinguishment of debt of approximately $8.1 million
in the year ended December 31, 2012.
Senior
Notes
As
of December 31, 2011, we had $365.0 million of 2015 Notes
outstanding. As of December 31, 2011, the coupon interest
rate and the yield on the 2015 Notes were 10.5% and 11.0%,
respectively. The yield on the 2015 Notes
exceeded the coupon interest rate because the 2015 Notes
were issued with original issue discount. As of December
31, 2011, we had a deferred loan cost balance, net of
accumulated amortization, of $6.1 million, related
primarily to our 2015 Notes.
On
October 22, 2012, we completed a previously announced
tender offer (the “Tender Offer”) pursuant to
which we repurchased approximately $222.6 million in
aggregate principal amount of 2015 Notes.
On
November 13, 2012, we completed the previously announced
redemption of all 2015 Notes that remained outstanding
following the completion of the Tender Offer (the
“Redemption”). The Redemption was
funded by additional borrowings under our 2012 Term Loan
and cash on hand.
In
connection with the completion of the Tender Offer and the
Redemption, we recorded a loss upon early extinguishment of
debt of approximately $38.6 million in the year ended
December 31, 2012 consisting of Tender Offer premiums of
$29.9 million, recognition of unaccreted original issue
discount of $3.7 million, the write off of unamortized
deferred financing costs of $4.6 million and the payment of
approximately $0.4 million in legal and other professional
fees.
On
October 9, 2012, we issued $300.0 million in aggregate
principal amount of the 2020 Notes. The interest rate on
the 2020 Notes is 7.5% per annum. The 2020 Notes were
issued at 99.266% of par, resulting in gross proceeds to us
of $297.8 million. Our obligations under the
2020 Notes are senior unsecured obligations, and are
guaranteed by all of our subsidiaries on a senior unsecured
basis. In connection with the issuance of the 2020 Notes,
we incurred estimated issuance costs of approximately $7.3
million, including bank fees and other professional fees.
Net proceeds from the sale of the 2020 Notes were
approximately $290.9 million, after deducting the initial
purchasers’ discounts and fees and
expenses. We used the net proceeds from the sale
of the 2020 Notes to (i) repurchase all of the 2015 Notes
validly tendered and not properly withdrawn in the Tender
Offer on or before the early tender deadline thereof, (ii)
pay related fees and expenses, including applicable Tender
Offer premiums, and (iii) repurchase the outstanding shares
of our Series D Perpetual Preferred Stock, including paying
accrued dividends thereon.
As
of December 31, 2012, we had $300.0 million of 2020 Notes
outstanding. As of December 31, 2012, the coupon interest
rate and the yield on the 2020 Notes were 7.5% and 7.6%,
respectively. The yield on the 2020 Notes
exceeded the coupon interest rate because the 2020 Notes
were issued with original issue discount. As of December
31, 2012, we had a deferred loan cost balance, net of
accumulated amortization, of $7.1 million, related
primarily to the 2020 Notes.
The
2020 Notes mature on October 1, 2020. Interest
accrues on the 2020 Notes from October 9, 2012, and
interest is payable semiannually, on April 1 and
October 1 of each year. The first interest
payment date is April 1, 2013.
We
may redeem some or all of the 2020 Notes at any time after
October 1, 2015 at specified redemption prices. We may also
redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the
2020 Notes using the proceeds from certain equity offerings
completed before October 1, 2015. In addition,
we may redeem some or all of the 2020 Notes at any time
prior to October 1, 2015 at a price equal to 100% of the
principal amount thereof plus a make whole premium, and
accrued and unpaid interest. If we sell
certain
of our assets or experience specific kinds of changes of
control, we must offer to repurchase the 2020 Notes.
Amendment
of 2007 Senior Credit Facility in 2010 and Issuance of 2015
Notes
On
March 31, 2010, we amended the 2007 Senior Credit
Facility. Pursuant to this amendment, from March
31, 2010 until the date we completed an offering of
“Replacement Debt” (as defined therein), which
offering was completed on April 29, 2010, among other
things, (i) we were required to pay an annual incentive fee
equal to 2.0% and (ii) the annual facility fee under the
2007 Senior Credit Facility remained at 3.0%.
On
April 29, 2010, we used a portion of the net proceeds from
the sale of the 2015 Notes to repay $300.0 million in
principal amount of the term loan outstanding under the
2007 Senior Credit Facility, to repay interest thereon and
to pay certain fees due thereunder. Following the
repayment, the annual facility fee rate was reduced to
0.75% per year and we became subject to a maximum first
lien leverage ratio covenant. Effective April 1,
2011, the annual facility fee was reduced to 0%.
Beginning
April 30, 2010, all interest and fees accrued under the
2007 Senior Credit Facility became payable in cash upon
their respective due dates, with no portion of such accrued
interest and fees being subject to deferral.
In
order to obtain the foregoing amendment of the 2007 Senior
Credit Facility, we incurred loan issuance costs of
approximately $4.5 million, including legal and
professional fees. We recorded a loss from early
extinguishment of debt of $0.3 million for year ended
December 31, 2010 related thereto. In order to issue the
2015 Notes, we incurred issuance costs of approximately
$8.6 million, including legal and professional fees.
Collateral,
Covenants and Restrictions
The
collateral for our obligations under the 2012 Senior Credit
Facility consists of substantially all of our and our
subsidiaries’ assets. In addition, our
subsidiaries are joint and several guarantors of the
obligations and our ownership interests in our subsidiaries
are pledged to collateralize the obligations.
As
of December 31, 2012 and 2011, we were in compliance with
all covenants required under our debt obligations. In the
future, if we are unable to maintain compliance with any
required covenant, we would expect that we would use
reasonable efforts to seek an amendment or waiver to such
requirements. However, in such circumstances, we
could provide no assurances that any amendment or waiver
would be obtained nor of its terms. In the
future, if we are not in compliance and we are unable to
obtain any required waivers or amendments, we would be in
default under those obligations and any such default could
allow a majority of the affected creditors to demand an
acceleration of the repayment of all outstanding amounts
under the affected debt or to foreclose on the assets
securing such indebtedness.
We
are a holding company with no material independent assets
or operations, other than our investments in our
subsidiaries. The aggregate assets, liabilities, earnings
and equity of the subsidiary guarantors as defined in the
2012 Senior Credit Facility are substantially equivalent to
our assets, liabilities, earnings and equity on a
consolidated basis. The subsidiary guarantors are, directly
or indirectly, our wholly-owned subsidiaries and the
guarantees of the subsidiary guarantors are full,
unconditional and joint and several. All of our current and
future direct and indirect subsidiaries are and will be
guarantors under the 2012 Senior Credit Facility and the
2020 Notes. Accordingly, separate financial statements and
other disclosures of each of the subsidiary
guarantors are not presented because
we have no material independent assets or operations, and
the guarantees are full and unconditional and joint and
several.

| Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Text Block] |
3. Derivatives
Risk
Management Objective of Using Derivatives
We
are exposed to certain risks arising from business
operations and economic conditions. We attempt to manage
our exposure to a wide variety of business and operational
risks principally through management of our core business
activities. We attempt to manage economic risk,
including interest rate, liquidity and credit risk,
primarily by managing the amount, sources and duration of
our debt financing and, at certain times, the use of
interest rate swap agreements. Specifically, we
enter into interest rate swap agreements to manage interest
rate exposure with the following objectives:
Cash
Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk
In
using interest rate derivatives, our objectives are to add
stability to interest expense and to manage our exposure to
interest rate movements. To accomplish these objectives, we
primarily use interest rate swap agreements as part of our
interest rate risk management strategy. Interest
rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the
receipt of variable rate amounts from a counterparty in
exchange for our making fixed-rate payments over the life
of the applicable agreement, without exchange of the
underlying notional amount.
During
2007, we entered into three swap agreements to convert
$465.0 million of our variable rate debt under the 2007
Senior Credit Facility to fixed rate debt. These
interest rate swap agreements expired on April 3, 2010, and
they were our only derivatives in effect during the year
ended December 31, 2010. Upon entering into the swap
agreements, we designated them as hedges of variability of
our variable rate interest payments attributable to changes
in three-month LIBOR, the designated interest
rate. Therefore, these interest rate swap
agreements were considered cash flow hedges.
Under
these swap agreements, we received variable rate interest
at the LIBOR and paid fixed interest at an annual rate of
5.48%.
Upon
entering into a swap agreement, we document our hedging
relationships and our risk management
objectives. Our swap agreements did not include
written options. Our swap agreements were intended solely
to modify the payments for a recognized liability from a
variable rate to a fixed rate. Our swap
agreements did not qualify for the short-cut method of
accounting, because the variable rate debt being hedged was
pre-payable.
Hedge
effectiveness was evaluated at the end of each quarter. We
compared the notional amount, the variable interest rate
and the settlement dates of the interest rate swap
agreements to the hedged portion of the debt. Our swap
agreements were highly effective at hedging our interest
rate exposure.
During
the term of each interest rate swap agreement, we
recognized such swap agreements at their fair value as an
asset or liability on our balance sheet. The effective
portion of the change in the fair value of our interest
rate swap agreements was recorded in accumulated other
comprehensive loss. The ineffective portion of the change
in fair value of the derivatives was recognized directly in
earnings (loss).
Amounts
reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss related to
derivatives were reclassified to interest expense as the
related interest payments were made on our variable rate
debt.
We
did not have any derivatives in effect as of December 31,
2012 or December 31, 2011.
The following
table presents the effect of our derivative financial
instruments on our consolidated statements of operations
for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 (in
thousands).
For
the year ended December 31, 2010, we recorded a gain on
derivatives as other comprehensive income of $3.8 million,
net of a $2.5 million income tax expense.
Credit-risk
Related Contingent Features
We
managed our counterparty risk by entering into derivative
instruments with global financial institutions that we
believe presented a low risk of credit loss resulting from
nonperformance. As of December 31, 2012 and
2011, we had not recorded a credit value adjustment related
to any interest rate swap agreements, as none were in
effect.

| Fair Value Disclosures [Text Block] |
4. Fair
Value Measurement
For
purposes of determining a fair value measurement, we
utilize market data or assumptions that market participants
would use in pricing an asset or liability, including
assumptions about risk and the risks inherent in the inputs
to the valuation technique. These inputs can be readily
observable, market corroborated or generally
unobservable. We utilize valuation techniques
that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the
use of unobservable inputs. These inputs are prioritized
into a hierarchy that gives the highest priority to
unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical
assets or liabilities (“Level 1”) and the
lowest priority to unobservable inputs that require
assumptions to measure fair value (“Level
3”). Level 2 inputs are those that are
other than quoted prices on national exchanges included
within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or
liability either directly or indirectly (“Level
2”).
Fair
Value of Financial Instruments
The
estimated fair value of financial instruments is determined
using market information and appropriate valuation
methodologies. Interpreting market data to develop fair
value estimates involves considerable judgment. The use of
different market assumptions or methodologies could have a
material effect on the estimated fair value
amounts. Accordingly, the estimates presented
are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that we could
realize in a current market exchange, or the value that
ultimately will be realized upon maturity or
disposition.
The
carrying amounts of the following instruments approximate
fair value due to their short term to maturity: (i)
accounts receivable, (ii) prepaid and other current assets,
(iii) accounts payable, (iv) accrued employee compensation
and benefits, (v) accrued interest, (vi) other accrued
expenses, (vii) acquisition-related liabilities and (viii)
deferred revenue.
The
carrying amount of our long-term debt was $832.9 million
and $832.2 million, respectively, and the fair value was
$844.4 million and $801.0 million, respectively, as of
December 31, 2012 and 2011. We classify our long-term debt
within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

7. Stock-Based
Compensation
Long
Term Incentive Plan
The
2007 Long Term Incentive Plan, as amended, (the “2007
Incentive Plan”) provides for the grant of incentive
stock options, nonqualified stock options, restricted stock
awards, stock appreciation rights, and performance awards
to our officers, employees and non-employee directors to
acquire shares of our Class A common stock, common stock or
to receive other awards based on our performance. We
recognize the fair value of stock options granted on the
date of grant as compensation expense, and such expense is
amortized over the vesting period of the stock option. The
2007 Incentive Plan allows us to grant share-based awards
for up to 6.0 million shares of stock, with not more than
1.0 million out of that 6.0 million being Class A common
stock and the remaining shares being common stock. As
of December 31, 2012 and in addition to options then
outstanding for the issuance of our common stock,
4.2 million shares were available for issuance under
the 2007 Incentive Plan. Shares of common stock underlying
outstanding options or performance awards are counted
against the 2007 Incentive Plan’s maximum shares.
Under the 2007 Incentive Plan, the options granted
typically vest after a two- to four-year period and expire
three to eight years after fully vesting. However, options
will vest immediately upon a “change in
control” as such term is defined in the 2007
Incentive Plan. All options have been granted with purchase
prices that equal the market value of the underlying stock
at the close of business on the date of the grant.
Included
in corporate and administrative expenses in the years ended
December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 were $0.9 million, $0.1
million and $0.3 million, respectively, of non-cash expense
for stock-based compensation which included amortization of
restricted stock and stock option
expense. During the year ended December 31,
2012, we granted 432,396 shares of restricted common stock
to our executive officers and non-employee directors, and
we also granted options to acquire 359,568 shares of our
common stock to our executive officers. We
later modified the restricted stock agreements granted
during the year ended December 31, 2012. As a result of the
modification, these 432,396 shares of restricted common
stock became fully vested on December 14, 2012 and $0.4
million in stock-based compensation expense was recognized
during the year ended December 31, 2012 that otherwise
would have been recognized in later periods. Had these
agreements not been modified, these shares of restricted
common stock would have fully vested by April 2, 2015. The
modifications affected the restricted stock agreements
granted to four executive officers and nine non-employee
directors. During
the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, we did not
grant any stock-based awards under this
plan. The fair value for each stock option
granted during the year ended December 31, 2012 was
estimated at $1.62 per share at the date of grant using the
Black-Scholes option pricing model using the following
assumptions:

May 14, 2003, our stockholders approved a restricted stock
equity incentive plan for our Board of Directors (the
“Directors’ Restricted Stock Plan”). We
have reserved 1.0 million shares of our common stock for
issuance under this plan and, as of December 31, 2012,
there were 770,000 shares available for future award. Under
the Directors’ Restricted Stock Plan, each director
can be awarded up to 10,000 shares of restricted stock each
calendar year. We did not grant any shares of restricted
common stock to our directors under this plan during the
years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 or 2010; however, we
did grant certain awards under our 2007 Incentive Plan to
members of our Board of Directors. All of the
shares granted to the directors under the Directors’
Restricted Stock Plan since its inception were vested as of
December 31, 2012.

stock for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010

compensation arrangements. The cost is expected to be
recognized over a period of 3.3 years.

8. Income
Taxes
We
recognize deferred tax assets and liabilities for future
tax consequences attributable to differences between our
financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and
liabilities and their respective tax bases. We
measure deferred tax assets and liabilities using enacted
tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years
in which those temporary differences are expected to
reverse. We recognize the effect on deferred tax
assets and liabilities resulting from a change in tax rates
in income in the period that includes the date of the
change.
Under
certain circumstances, we recognize liabilities in our
financial statements for positions taken on uncertain tax
issues. When
tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some
positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the
taxing authorities, while others may be subject to
uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the
amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained.
The benefit of a tax position is recognized in the
financial statements in the period during which, based on
all available evidence, we believe it is more likely than
not that the position will be sustained upon examination,
including the resolution of appeals or litigation
processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or
aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet
the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured
as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50
percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the
applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits
associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount
measured as described above is reflected as a liability for
unrecognized tax benefits on the balance sheet along with
any associated interest and penalties that would be payable
to the taxing authorities upon examination. Interest and
penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits are
classified as income tax expense in the statement of
operations.
Federal and
state income tax expense (benefit) is summarized as follows
(in thousands):
Significant
components of our deferred tax liabilities and assets are
as follows (in thousands):
We
have approximately $250.2 million in federal operating loss
carryforwards, which expire during the years 2021 through
2031. Additionally, we have an aggregate of approximately
$259.1 million of various state operating loss
carryforwards. We project to have taxable income in the
carryforward periods. Therefore, we believe that it is more
likely than not that the federal net operating loss
carryforwards will be fully utilized.
A
valuation allowance has been provided for a portion of the
state net operating loss carryforwards. We
believe that we will not meet the more likely than not
threshold in certain states due to the uncertainty of
generating sufficient income. Therefore, the state
valuation allowance at December 31, 2012 and 2011 was $3.2
million and $4.3 million, respectively.
As
of December 31, 2011, we had also recorded a valuation
allowance of $0.3 million for capital loss carryforwards
because we believed at the time that we did not meet the
more likely than not threshold for generating sufficient
capital gains in the carryforward period. However during
the year ended December 31, 2012, we completely utilized
our capital loss carryforwards and as a result, we reduced
our valuation allowance for capital loss carryforwards to
zero.
Our
total valuation allowance provided for deferred income tax
assets decreased $1.5 million for the year ended December
31, 2012 due to changes in estimated utilization of the
state operating loss carryforwards and the full
utilization of our capital loss
carryforwards. Our total valuation allowance
provided for deferred income tax assets decreased $0.3
million for the year ended December 31, 2011 due to changes
in estimated utilization and expiration of certain state
operating loss carryforwards.
A
reconciliation of income tax expense at the statutory
federal income tax rate and income taxes as reflected in
the consolidated financial statements for the years ended
December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 is as follows (in
thousands):
As
of each year end, we are required to adjust our pension
liability to an amount equal to the funded status of our
pension plans with a corresponding adjustment to other
comprehensive income on a net of tax basis. During 2012, we
increased our recorded non-current pension liability by
$6.2 million and recognized other comprehensive loss of
$3.8 million, net of a $2.4 million tax benefit. During
2011, we increased our recorded non-current pension
liability by $13.8 million and recognized other
comprehensive loss of $8.4 million, net of a $5.4 million
tax benefit. During 2010, we increased our recorded
non-current pension liability by $4.2 million and
recognized other comprehensive loss of $2.6 million, net of
a $1.6 million tax benefit.
During
2010, our interest rate swap agreements expired, reducing
our long-term liability from $6.3 million to
zero. The resulting gain on derivatives of $3.8
million was recorded as other comprehensive income, net of
a $2.5 million income tax expense.
In 2012 and
2011, we made income tax payments (net of refunds) of $0.8
million and $0.5 million, respectively. In 2010,
we received income tax refunds (net of payments) of $0.1
million, which included a $0.5 million federal refund for
carrying back our alternative minimum tax net operating
loss to 2004 and 2005. At December 31, 2012 and 2011, we
had current income taxes payable of approximately
$1.9 million and $2.8 million, respectively.
We
prescribe a recognition threshold and measurement
attribution for the financial statement recognition and
measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken
in a tax return. For benefits to be recognized, a tax
position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon
examination by taxing authorities.
As
of December 31, 2012 and 2011, we had approximately $1.6
million and $2.6 million, respectively, of unrecognized tax
benefits. All of these unrecognized tax benefits would
impact our effective tax rate if recognized. The liability
for unrecognized tax benefits is recorded net of any
federal tax benefit that would result from payment.
We
have accrued estimates of interest and penalties related to
unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. As of
December 31, 2012 and 2011, we had recorded a liability for
potential penalties and interest of approximately $0.7
million and $1.0 million, respectively, related to
uncertain tax positions.
The
following table summarizes the activity related to our
unrecognized tax benefits, net of federal benefit,
excluding interest and penalties for the years ended
December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 (in thousands):
While
it is difficult to calculate with any certainty, we
estimate a decrease of $0.1 million, exclusive of interest
and penalties, will be recorded for uncertain tax positions
over the next twelve months resulting from expiring
statutes of limitations for state tax issues.
We
file income tax returns in the U.S. federal and multiple
state jurisdictions. With few exceptions, we are no
longer subject to U.S. federal, or state and local tax
examinations by tax authorities for years prior to
2001. This extended open adjustment period is due to
material amounts of net operating loss carryforwards, which
exist at the federal level and in multiple-state
jurisdictions arising from the 2001, 2002 and 2003 tax
years.

9.
Retirement Plans
We
sponsor and contribute to defined benefit and defined
contribution retirement plans covering substantially all of
our full time employees. Our defined benefit pension plans
include our active plan as well as two frozen plans that we
assumed when we acquired the related businesses. The Gray
Television, Inc. Capital Accumulation Plan (“the
Capital Accumulation Plan”) is a defined contribution
plan that is intended to meet the requirements of section
401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code.
Gray
Pension Plan
Our active
defined benefit plan covers substantially all of our
full-time employees. Retirement benefits are based on years
of service and the employee’s highest average
compensation for five consecutive years during the last ten
years of employment. The funding policy is consistent with
the funding requirements of existing federal laws and
regulations under the Employee Retirement Income Security
Act of 1974.
The
measurement dates used to determine the benefit information
for our active defined benefit pension plan were December
31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The following
summarizes the active pension plan’s funded status
and amounts recognized on our consolidated balance sheets
at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively (dollars in
thousands):
The
accumulated benefit obligation amounts for our active
defined benefit pension plan were $71.8 million and $58.1
million at December 31, 2012 and 2011,
respectively. The increase in the accumulated
benefit obligation is due primarily to increases in
salaries and past service and decreases in the discount
period until retirement for continuing employees, as well
as discount rate changes. The long-term rate of
return on assets assumption was chosen from a best estimate
range based upon the anticipated long-term returns for
asset categories in which the pension plan is
invested. The long-term rate of return may be
viewed as the sum of (i) 3% inflation, (ii) a 1% risk-free
rate of return and (iii) a 3% risk premium. The estimated
rate of increase in compensation levels is based on
historical compensation increases for our employees.
Pension
expense is computed using the projected unit credit
actuarial cost method. The net periodic pension cost for
our active pension plan includes the following components
(in thousands):
For
our active pension plan, the estimated future benefit
payments are as follows (in thousands):
The
active pension plan’s weighted-average asset
allocations by asset category are as follows:
The
investment objective is to achieve a consistent total rate
of return (income, appreciation, and reinvested funds) that
will equal or exceed the actuarial assumption with aversion
to significant volatility. The following is the target
asset allocation:
Our
equity portfolio contains securities of financially sound
companies necessary to build a diversified portfolio. Our
fixed income portfolio contains obligations generally rated
A or better with no maturity restrictions and an actively
managed duration. The cash equivalents strategy uses
securities of the highest credit quality.
Fair
Value of Active Pension Plan Assets
We
calculate the fair value of our active pension plan’s
assets based upon the observable and unobservable net asset
value of its underlying investments. We utilize valuation
techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and
minimize the use of unobservable inputs. These inputs are
prioritized by the fair value hierarchy proscribed by
Accounting Standards Codification Topic 820, described in
Note 4 “Fair Value Measurement.”
The
following table presents the fair value of our active
pension plan’s assets and classifies them by level
within the fair value hierarchy as of December 31, 2012 and
2011, respectively (in thousands):
Active
Pension Plan Fair Value Measurements
Acquired
Pension Plans
In
2002 and 1998, we acquired companies with two underfunded
pension plans (the “Acquired Pension Plans”).
The Acquired Pension Plans were frozen by their prior plan
sponsors and no new participants can be added to the
Acquired Pension Plans. As of December 31, 2012,
the Acquired Pension Plans had combined plan assets of $4.9
million and the combined projected benefit obligations of
$7.4 million. As of December 31, 2011, the
Acquired Pension Plans had combined plan assets of $4.4
million and combined projected benefit obligations of $6.8
million. The net liability for the two Acquired Pension
Plans is recorded as a liability in our financial
statements as of December 31, 2012 and 2011.
Contributions
We
expect to contribute a combined total of between
approximately $3.1 million and $8.0 million to our active
pension plan and the Acquired Pension Plans during the year
ending December 31, 2013.
Capital
Accumulation Plan
The Capital
Accumulation Plan provides additional retirement benefits
for substantially all employees. The Capital Accumulation
Plan provides our employees with an investment option in
our common stock and Class A common stock. It also allows
for our matching contribution to be made in the form of our
common stock. On December 9, 2008 and May 2, 2007, our
Board of Directors increased the number of shares reserved
for the Capital Accumulation Plan by 2,000,000 and
1,000,000 shares of our common stock, respectively. As of
December 31, 2012, 1,600,988 shares remained available for
issuance under the plan.
We may match
employee contributions to the Capital Accumulation Plan,
and such contributions may not exceed 6% of the
employees’ gross pay. Our percentage match amount, if
any, is determined by our Board of Directors before the
beginning of each plan year and is made by a contribution
of our common stock. Effective December 31, 2008, our Board
of Directors suspended our matching contributions for the
majority of our employees. For the years ended December 31,
2012, 2011 and 2010, our percentage match was 50% for
certain employees included in a collective bargaining unit
at one of our stations and we did not match contributions
for the remainder of our employees. Our
contributions vest, based upon each employee’s number
of years of service, over a period not to exceed five
years.
Our
matching contributions for the years ended December 31,
2012, 2011 and 2010 are as follows (in thousands):

10. Commitments
and Contingencies
We
have various operating lease commitments for equipment,
land and office space. We also have commitments
for various syndicated television programs, commitments for
the purchase of equipment and commitments related to the
acquisition of certain television stations that were not
completed as of December 31, 2012. Future minimum payments
for these commitments as of December 31, 2012 are as
follows (in thousands):
The amounts in
the table above are estimates of commitments that are in
addition to the liabilities accrued for on our consolidated
balance sheet as of December 31, 2012.
Leases
We
have no material capital leases. Where leases
include rent holidays, rent escalations, rent concessions
and leasehold improvement incentives, the value of these
incentives are amortized over the lease term including
anticipated renewal periods. Leasehold
improvements are depreciated over the associated lease term
including anticipated renewal periods. Rent expense
resulting from operating leases for the years ended
December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 were $1.5 million, $1.5
million and $1.5 million, respectively.
Sports
Marketing Agreement
On
October 12, 2004, the University of Kentucky
(“UK”) awarded a sports marketing agreement
jointly to us and IMG Worldwide, Inc. (“IMG”)
(the “UK Agreement”). The UK Agreement expires
April 15, 2015.
The
UK Agreement provides that we will share in profits in
excess of certain amounts specified by the agreement, if
any, but not losses. The agreement also provides that we
will separately retain all local broadcast advertising
revenue and pay all local broadcast expenses for activities
under the agreement. Under the agreement, IMG agreed to
make all license fee payments to UK. However, if IMG is
unable to pay the license fee to UK, we will then be
required to pay the unpaid portion of the license fee to
UK. As of December 31, 2012, the aggregate license fee to
be paid by IMG to UK over the remaining term of the
agreement is approximately $21.7 million. If we make
advances on behalf of IMG, IMG is required to reimburse us
for the amount paid within 60 days after the close of each
contract year, which ends on June 30th. IMG has also agreed
to pay interest on any advance at a rate equal to the prime
rate. During the year ended December 31, 2012, we did not
advance any amounts to UK on behalf of IMG under this
agreement. As of December 31, 2012, we do not
consider the risk of non-performance by IMG to be
high.
Legal
Proceedings and Claims
We
are subject to legal proceedings and claims that arise in
the normal course of our business. In the
opinion of management, the amount of ultimate liability, if
any, with respect to these actions, will not materially
affect our financial position, results of operations or
cash flows, although legal proceedings are subject to
inherent uncertainties, and unfavorable rulings or events
could occur which could negatively affect us, possibly
materially.

and Intangible Assets
We
acquired low power television broadcast licenses in three
of our existing markets for a total of $0.2 million during
the year ended December 31, 2012. A summary of
changes in our goodwill and other intangible assets, on a

of December 31, 2012 and 2011, our intangible assets and
related accumulated amortization consisted of the following
(in thousands):
Amortization
expense for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and
2010 was $0.1 million, $0.1 million and $0.5 million,
respectively. Based on the current amount of intangible
assets subject to amortization, we expect that amortization
expense for the succeeding five years will be as follows:
2013, $50,000; 2014, $38,000; 2015, $38,000; 2016, $38,000;
and 2017, $38,000. If and when acquisitions and
dispositions occur in the future, actual amounts may vary
from these estimates.
Impairment
of goodwill and broadcast license
As
of December 31, 2012 and 2011, we tested our goodwill,
broadcast licenses and other intangible asset recorded
values for potential impairment and concluded that the
balances were reasonably stated. As a result, we
did not record an impairment expense for our goodwill,
broadcast licenses or other intangible assets during fiscal
2012, 2011 or 2010.
See
Note 1. “Description of Business and Summary of
Significant Accounting Policies” for further

The
consolidated financial statements include our accounts and
the accounts of our subsidiaries. All
significant intercompany accounts and transactions have

| Revenue Recognition, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Revenue
Recognition
Broadcast
advertising revenue is generated primarily from the sale of
television advertising time to local, national and
political advertisers. Internet advertising revenue is
generated from the sale of advertisements associated with
our stations’ websites. Our aggregate internet
revenue is derived from two sources. The first is
advertising or sponsorship opportunities directly on our
websites, referred to as “direct internet
revenue.” The other source is television advertising
time purchased by our clients to directly promote their
involvement in our websites, referred to as
“internet-related commercial time sales.” Advertising
revenue is billed to the customer and recognized when the
advertisement is broadcast or appears on our
stations’ websites. Retransmission consent revenue
consists of payments to us from cable and satellite
distribution systems for their retransmission of our
broadcast signals. Retransmission consent revenue is
recognized as earned over the life of the retransmission
consent contract. Other revenue consist primarily of
revenue earned from the production of programming and
payments from tower space rent. Revenue from the production
of programming is recognized as the programming is
produced. Tower rent is recognized over the life of the
rental agreements. Consulting revenue is generated from
consulting services provided and typically includes a base
and an incentive component. Revenue from the base component
is fixed and is recognized on a straight line basis over
the term of the consulting agreement. Revenue from the
incentive component, if any, is variable and is determined
by performance. Revenue from the incentive component of a
consulting agreement is recognized when the amount earned
becomes estimable and payment is probable.
Cash
received which has not yet been recognized as revenue is
presented as deferred revenue. Revenue which has
been earned but not yet received is recognized as revenue
and presented as a receivable. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Advertising Barter Transactions, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Barter
Transactions
We
account for trade barter transactions involving the
exchange of tangible goods or services with our customers
as revenue. The revenue is recorded at the time the
advertisement is broadcast and the expense is recorded at
the time the goods or services are used. The revenue and
expense associated with these transactions are based on the
fair value of the assets or services involved in the
transaction. Trade barter revenue and expense recognized by
us for each of the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and
2010 were as follows (amounts in thousands):
We
do not account for barter revenue and related barter
expense generated from network or syndicated programming as
such amounts are not material. Furthermore, any such barter
revenue recognized would then require the recognition of an
equal amount of barter expense. The recognition of these
amounts would not have a material effect upon net
income. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Advertising Costs, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Advertising
Expense
We
recorded advertising expense of $0.9 million, $0.8 million
and $0.8 million for the years ended December 31, 2012,
2011 and 2010, respectively. We expense all advertising
expenditures as they are incurred. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Use of Estimates, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Use
of Estimates
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America (“GAAP”) requires management
to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts
reported in the financial statements and accompanying
notes. Our actual results could materially differ from
these estimated amounts. Our most significant estimates are
used for our allowance for doubtful accounts in
receivables, valuation of goodwill and intangible assets,
amortization of program rights and intangible assets,
pension costs, income taxes, employee medical insurance
claims, useful lives of property and equipment,
contingencies and litigation. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Loans and Leases Receivable, Allowance for Loan Losses Policy [Policy Text Block] | Allowance
for Doubtful Accounts
Our
allowance for doubtful accounts is equal to at least 85% of
our receivable balances that are 120 days old or
older. We may provide allowances for certain
receivable that are less than 120 days old when warranted
by specific facts and circumstances. We recorded expenses
for this allowance of $0.1 million, $1.9 million and $0.7
million for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and
2010, respectively. We generally write-off accounts
receivable balances when the customer files for bankruptcy
or when all commonly used methods of collection have been
exhausted. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Program Broadcast Rights [Policy Text Block] | Program
Broadcast Rights
The total
license fee payable under a program license agreement
allowing us to broadcast programs is recorded at the
beginning of the license period and is charged to operating
expense over the period that the programs are broadcast.
The portion of the unamortized balance expected to be
charged to operating expense in the succeeding year is
classified as a current asset, with the remainder
classified as a non-current asset. The liability
for license fees payable under program license agreements
is classified as current or long-term, in accordance with
the payment terms of the various license agreements. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Property, Plant and Equipment, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Property
and Equipment
Property and
equipment are carried at cost. Depreciation is computed
principally by the straight-line
method. Maintenance, repairs and minor
replacements are charged to operations as incurred; major
replacements and betterments are capitalized. The cost of
any assets sold or retired and related accumulated
depreciation are removed from the accounts at the time of
disposition, and any resulting profit or loss is reflected
in income or expense for the period. The following table
lists components of property and equipment by major
category (dollars in thousands):
On March 22,
2011, our primary broadcast tower for WEAU-TV, our station
which serves the La Crosse – Eau Claire, Wisconsin
market, collapsed during inclement weather. Our loss of
property due to the tower collapse was covered by
insurance, subject to a deductible of
$50,000. For the year ended December 31, 2012,
we received insurance proceeds of $0.8 million for the
collapsed tower, recorded a gain on disposals of assets
of $0.8 million for the
collapsed tower and recorded capital expenditures of
$0.4
million for
construction of the new tower. For the year
ended December 31, 2011, we received insurance proceeds
of $3.2 million for the
collapsed tower, recorded a gain on disposals of assets
of $3.0 million for the
collapsed tower and recorded capital expenditures of
$3.9
million for
construction of the new tower. For the year ended December
31, 2011, we received an additional $450,000 of proceeds
from business interruption insurance, which was recorded as
a reduction of broadcast expense. For the year ended
December 31, 2012, we did not receive any proceeds from
business interruption insurance. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Deferred Charges, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Deferred
Loan Costs
Loan
acquisition costs are amortized over the life of the
applicable indebtedness using a straight-line method that
approximates the effective interest method. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Asset Retirement Obligations, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Asset
Retirement Obligations
We
own office equipment, broadcasting equipment, leasehold
improvements and transmission towers, some of which are
located on, or are housed in, leased property or
facilities. At the conclusion of several of these leases we
are legally obligated to dismantle, remove and otherwise
properly dispose of and remediate the facility or property.
We estimate our asset retirement obligations based upon the
cash flows of the costs expected to be incurred and the net
present value of those estimated amounts. The asset
retirement obligation is recognized as a non-current
liability and as a component of the cost of the related
asset. Changes to our asset retirement obligation resulting
from revisions to the timing or the amount of the original
undiscounted cash flow estimates are recognized as an
increase or decrease to the carrying amount of the asset
retirement obligation and the related asset retirement cost
capitalized as part of the related property, plant, or
equipment. Changes in the asset retirement obligation
resulting from accretion of the net present value of the
estimated cash flows are recognized as operating expenses.
We recognize depreciation expense of the capitalized cost
over the estimated life of the lease. Our estimated
obligations become due at varying times during the years
2013 through 2059. The liability recognized for our asset
retirement obligations was approximately $505,000 and
$465,000 as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
Related to our asset retirement obligations, for the years
ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, we recorded an
expense of $25,000, $5,000 and $28,000,
respectively. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Concentration Risk, Credit Risk, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Concentration
of Credit Risk
We sell
advertising air-time on our broadcasts and advertising
space on our websites to national and local advertisers
within the geographic areas in which we operate. Credit is
extended based on an evaluation of the customer’s
financial condition, and generally advance payment is not
required except for political advertising. Credit losses
are provided for in the financial statements and
consistently have been within our expectations that are
based upon our prior experience.
For
the year ended December 31, 2012, approximately 18%, 8% and
7% of our broadcast advertising revenue was obtained from
advertising sales to advertising customers in the
automotive, medical and restaurant industries,
respectively. We experienced similar industry-based
concentrations of revenue in the years ended December 31,
2011 and 2010. Although our revenues can be affected by
changes within these industries, we believe this risk is in
part mitigated due to the fact that no one customer
accounted for in excess of 5% of our broadcast advertising
revenue in any of these periods. Furthermore, we believe
that our large geographic operating area partially
mitigates the potential effect of regional economic
changes. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Earnings Per Share, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Earnings
Per Share
We
compute basic earnings per share by dividing net income
(loss) available to common stockholders by the
weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during
the relevant period. The weighted-average number of common
shares outstanding does not include restricted shares.
These shares, although classified as issued and
outstanding, are considered contingently returnable until
the restrictions lapse and, in accordance with GAAP, are
not included in the basic earnings per share calculation
until the shares vest. Diluted earnings per share is
computed by including all potentially dilutive common
shares, including restricted stock and shares underlying
stock options, in the diluted weighted-average shares
outstanding calculation, unless their inclusion would be
antidilutive.
The
following table reconciles basic weighted-average shares
outstanding to diluted weighted-average shares outstanding
for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 (in
thousands):

| Investment, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Investment
in Broadcasting Company
We
have an investment in Sarkes Tarzian, Inc.
(“Tarzian”) whose principal business is the
ownership and operation of two television stations. As of
June 30, 2012, the most recent period for which we have
Tarzian’s financial statements, our investment
represented 32.4% of the total outstanding common stock of
Tarzian (both in terms of the number of shares of common
stock outstanding and in terms of voting rights), but such
investment represented 67.9% of the equity of Tarzian for
purposes of dividends, if paid, as well as distributions in
the event of any liquidation, dissolution or other sale of
Tarzian. This investment is accounted for under the cost
method of accounting and reflected as a non-current asset.
We have no commitment to fund operations of Tarzian and we
have neither representation on Tarzian’s board of
directors nor any other influence over Tarzian’s
management. We believe the cost method is appropriate to
account for this investment given the existence of a single
voting majority stockholder and our lack of management
influence. |

| Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Valuation
of Broadcast Licenses, Goodwill and Other Intangible
Assets
From
January 1, 1994 through December 31, 2012, we acquired 33
television stations. We completed our most recent
acquisition on March 3, 2006. Among the assets acquired in
these transactions were broadcast licenses issued by the
Federal Communications Commission, goodwill and other
intangible assets.
For
broadcast licenses acquired prior to January 1, 2002, we
recorded their respective values using a residual method
(analogous to “goodwill”) where the excess of
the purchase price paid in the acquisition over the fair
value of all identified tangible and intangible assets
acquired was attributed to the broadcast license. This
residual basis approach generally produces higher
valuations of broadcast licenses when compared to
applying an income method as discussed below.
For broadcast licenses acquired after December 31, 2001,
we recorded their respective values using an income
approach. Under this approach, a broadcast license is
valued based on analyzing the estimated after-tax
discounted future cash flows of the acquired station,
assuming an initial hypothetical start-up
operation
maturing into an average performing station in a specific
television market and giving consideration to other
relevant factors such as the technical qualities of the
broadcast license and the number of competing broadcast
licenses within that market. The income approach generally
produces lower valuations of broadcast licenses when
compared to applying the residual method. For
television stations acquired after December 31, 2001, we
allocate the residual value of the station to
goodwill.
When
renewing broadcast licenses, we incur regulatory filing
fees and legal fees. We expense these fees as
they are incurred.
Other
intangible assets that we have acquired include network
affiliation agreements, advertising contracts, client
lists, talent contracts and leases. Each of our stations is
affiliated with at least one broadcast network. We believe
that the value of a television station is derived primarily
from the attributes of its broadcast license rather than
its network affiliation agreement. As a result, we have
allocated minimal values to our network affiliation
agreements. We have classified our other
intangible assets as definite-lived intangible assets. The
amortization period of our other intangible assets is equal
to the shorter of their estimated useful life or contract
period. When renewing other intangible asset contracts, we
incur legal fees which are expensed as incurred.
Annual
Impairment Testing of Intangible Assets
We
test for impairment of our intangible assets on an annual
basis on the last day of each fiscal
year. However, if certain triggering events
occur, we will test for impairment during the relevant
reporting period.
For
purposes of testing goodwill for impairment, each of our
individual television stations is considered a separate
reporting unit. We review each television station for
possible goodwill impairment by comparing the estimated
fair value of each respective reporting unit to the
recorded value of that reporting unit’s net assets.
If the estimated fair value exceeds the recorded net asset
value, no goodwill impairment is deemed to exist. If the
estimated fair value of the reporting unit does not exceed
the recorded value of that reporting unit’s net
assets, we then perform, on a notional basis, a purchase
price allocation by allocating the reporting unit’s
fair value to the fair value of all tangible and
identifiable intangible assets with residual fair value
representing the implied fair value of goodwill of that
reporting unit. The recorded value of goodwill
for the reporting unit is written down to this implied
value.
To
estimate the fair value of our reporting units, we utilize
a discounted cash flow model supported by a market multiple
approach. We believe that a discounted cash flow
analysis is the most appropriate methodology to test the
recorded value of long-term assets with a demonstrated
long-lived / enduring franchise value. We
believe the results of the discounted cash flow and market
multiple approaches provide reasonable estimates of the
fair value of our reporting units because these approaches
are based on our actual results and reasonable estimates of
future performance, and also take into consideration a
number of other factors deemed relevant by us, including
but not limited to, expected future market revenue growth,
market revenue shares and operating profit margins. We have
historically used these approaches in determining the value
of our goodwill. We also consider a market
multiple approach utilizing market multiples to corroborate
our discounted cash flow analysis. We believe
that this methodology is consistent with the approach that
a strategic market participant would utilize if they were
to value one of our television stations.
For
testing of our broadcast licenses and other intangible
assets for potential impairment of their recorded asset
values, we compare their estimated fair value to the
respective asset’s recorded value. If the
fair value is greater than the asset’s recorded
value, no impairment expense is recorded. If the
fair value does not exceed the asset’s recorded
value, we record an impairment expense equal to the
amount
that the asset’s recorded value exceeded the
asset’s fair value. We use the income method to
estimate the fair value of all broadcast licenses
irrespective of whether they were initially recorded using
the residual or income methods.
For
further discussion of our goodwill, broadcast licenses and
other intangible assets, see Note 11. “Goodwill and
Intangible Assets”. |

| New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
We
have reviewed all recently issued accounting
pronouncements. Of those pronouncements that
have been issued but not yet effective, we do not
anticipate a material impact upon our financial statements
upon our adoption of those pronouncements.
Financial
Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting
Standards Update (“ASU”) 2012-07,
Entertainment--Films (Topic 926): Accounting for Fair Value
Information That Arises after the Measurement Date and Its
Inclusion in the Impairment Analysis of Unamortized Film
Costs
On
October 24, 2012, the FASB issued ASU No. 2012-07, Entertainment -
Films (Topic 926): Accounting for Fair Value Information
That Arises after the
Measurement Date and Its Inclusion in the Impairment
Analysis of Unamortized Film Costs. The amendments
in this ASU apply to all entities that perform impairment
assessments of unamortized film costs in accordance with
Topic 926.
The
amendments in this ASU eliminate the rebuttable presumption
that the conditions leading to the write off of unamortized
film costs after the balance sheet date existed as of the
balance sheet date. The amendments also eliminate the
requirement that an entity incorporate into fair value
measurements used in its impairment tests the effects of
any changes in estimates resulting from the consideration
of subsequent evidence if the information would not have
been considered by market participants at the measurement
date.
For
U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”)
filers, these amendments are effective for impairment
assessments performed on or after December 15, 2012. The
amendments resulting from this ASU should be applied
prospectively. Earlier application is permitted, including
for impairment assessments performed as of a date before
October 24, 2012, if, for SEC filers, the entity’s
financial statements for the most recent annual or interim
period have not yet been issued or, for all other entities,
have not yet been made available for issuance. Effective
December 15, 2012, we implemented this ASU without any
impact upon our financial statements.
FASB
ASU 2012-02, Intangibles -
Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived
Intangible Assets for Impairment
On
July 27, 2012, the FASB issued ASU No. 2012-02, Intangibles--Goodwill
and Other
(Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for
Impairment. This ASU states that an entity has the
option first to assess qualitative factors to determine
whether the existence of events and circumstances indicates
that it is more likely than not that the indefinite-lived
intangible asset is impaired. If, after assessing the
totality of events and circumstances, an entity concludes
that it is not more likely than not that the
indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired, then the
entity is not required to take further action. However, if
an entity concludes otherwise, then it is required to
determine the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible
asset and perform the quantitative impairment test by
comparing the fair value with the carrying amount in
accordance with Codification Subtopic 350-30, Intangibles--Goodwill
and Other, General Intangibles Other than
Goodwill.
Under
the guidance in this ASU, an entity also has the option to
bypass the qualitative assessment for any indefinite-lived
intangible asset in any period and proceed directly to
performing the quantitative impairment test. An entity will
be able to resume performing the qualitative assessment in
any subsequent period.
The
amendments in this ASU are effective for annual and interim
impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after
September 15, 2012. Early adoption is permitted, including
for annual and interim impairment tests performed as of a
date before July 27, 2012, if a public entity’s
financial statements for the most recent annual or interim
period have not yet been issued or, for nonpublic entities,
have not yet been made available for issuance. Effective
December 31, 2012, we implemented this ASU without any
impact upon our financial statements.
FASB
ASU 2011-08, Intangibles-Goodwill
and Other (Topic 350): Testing Goodwill for
Impairment
On
September 15, 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards
Update (ASU) No. 2011-08, Intangibles—Goodwill
and Other (Topic 350): Testing Goodwill for
Impairment. ASU 2011-08 is intended to simplify how
entities, both public and nonpublic, test goodwill for
impairment. ASU 2011-08 permits an entity to first assess
qualitative factors to determine whether it is "more likely
than not" that the fair value of a reporting unit is less
than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether
it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment
test described in Topic 350, Intangibles-Goodwill
and Other. The more-likely-than-not threshold is
defined as having a likelihood of more than 50%.
ASU
2011-08 is effective for annual and interim goodwill
impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 2011. Early adoption is permitted, including
for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed
as of a date before September 15, 2011, if an
entity’s financial statements for the most recent
annual or interim period have not yet been issued or, for
nonpublic entities, have not yet been made available for
issuance. Effective December 31, 2011, we implemented this
ASU without any impact upon our financial
statements. |

For defined benefit pension plans, the actuarial present value of benefits (whether vested or nonvested) attributed by the pension benefit formula to employee service rendered before a specified date and based on employee service and compensation (if applicable) before that date. The accumulated benefit obligation differs from the projected benefit obligation in that it includes no assumption about future compensation levels. For plans with flat-benefit or nonpay-related pension benefit formulas, the accumulated benefit obligation and the projected benefit obligation are the same.

1) For defined benefit pension plans, the benefit obligation is the projected benefit obligation, which is the actuarial present value as of a date of all benefits attributed by the pension benefit formula to employee service rendered prior to that date. 2) For other postretirement defined benefit plans, the benefit obligation is the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation, which is the actuarial present value of benefits attributed to employee service rendered to a particular date.
