SANTA MONICA, Calif., Aug. 3 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Entravision Communications Corporation (NYSE:EVC) today reported financial results for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2005.

Historical results, which are attached, are in thousands of U.S. dollars (except share and per share data). This press release contains certain non- GAAP financial measures as defined by SEC Regulation G. The GAAP financial measure most directly comparable to each of these non-GAAP financial measures, and a table reconciling each of these non-GAAP financial measures to its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, is included beginning on page 8. Unaudited financial highlights are as follows:

Three Months Ended Six Months Ended June 30, % June 30, % 2005 2004 Change 2005 2004 Change

Net revenue $75,109 $68,945 9% $132,263 $120,995 9% Operating expenses (1) 43,152 40,068 8% 83,125 78,727 6% Broadcast cash flow (2) 31,957 28,877 11% 49,138 42,268 16% EBITDA as adjusted (2) 27,761 24,757 12% 40,793 34,135 20%

Free cash flow (3) $13,809 $15,176 (9%) $15,602 $14,915 5% Free cash flow per share, basic and diluted $0.11 $0.12 (8%) $0.13 $0.12(4) 8%

Net income (loss) $4,231 $5,091 (17%) $(257) $(132) 95% Net income (loss) per share applicable to common stockholders: Basic and diluted $0.03 $0.02 50% $(0.00) $(0.07) (100%) Basic weighted average common shares outstanding 124,268,627 87,178,430 124,241,105 87,159,468 Diluted weighted average common shares outstanding 124,454,771 124,454,254 124,241,105 87,159,468

(1) Operating expenses include direct operating, selling, general and administrative expenses. It does not include corporate expenses, depreciation, amortization, non-cash stock-based compensation and gain on sale of assets. (2) Broadcast cash flow means operating income (loss) before corporate expenses, gain (loss) on sale of assets, depreciation and amortization and non-cash stock-based compensation. EBITDA as adjusted means broadcast cash flow less corporate expenses. The Company uses the term EBITDA as adjusted because that measure does not include non-cash stock-based compensation. The Company evaluates and projects the liquidity and cash flows of its business using several measures, including broadcast cash flow and EBITDA as adjusted. The Company considers these measures as important indicators of liquidity relating to its operations, as they eliminate the effects of non-cash gain (loss) on sale of assets, non-cash depreciation and amortization, and non-cash stock-based compensation awards. The Company uses these measures to evaluate liquidity and cash flow improvement from year to year as they eliminate non-cash expense items. The Company believes its investors should use these measures because they may provide a better comparability of the Company's liquidity to that of its competitors.

While the Company and many in the financial community consider broadcast cash flow and EBITDA as adjusted to be important, they should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for or superior to, other measures of liquidity and financial performance prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, such as cash flows from operating activities, operating income and net income. In addition, the Company's definitions of broadcast cash flow and EBITDA as adjusted differ from those of many companies reporting similarly named measures.

(3) Free cash flow is defined as EBITDA as adjusted less cash paid for income taxes, net interest expense and capital expenditures. Net interest expense is defined as interest expense less non-cash interest expense relating to amortization of debt finance costs less interest income. The Company uses net interest expense instead of actual cash paid for interest in the free cash flow calculation so that quarterly results are comparable as the Company makes bond interest payments twice a year. Free cash flow per share is defined as free cash flow divided by weighted average common shares outstanding.

(4) The Series U preferred stock held by Univision was converted into shares of the Company's new Class U common stock on July 1, 2004. If the Series U preferred stock had been treated as common stock outstanding, the basic weighted average common shares outstanding would have been 124,086,068 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2004. This calculation of common stock shares was used for the free cash flow calculation for the six-month period ended June 30, 2004.

Commenting on the Company's results, Walter Ulloa, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, "Our results for the second quarter once again outperformed the industry, as all three of our business segments exceeded our guidance and recorded solid top and bottom line growth. Operating fundamentals across our asset base remain strong as more advertisers see the value of Spanish-language media, and, as we continue to generate ratings increases, we are effectively converting these gains into additional advertising revenues."

Mr. Ulloa continued, "Our diversified asset base and strategic focus on the fastest growing and highest density U.S. Hispanic markets provides us with a unique growth engine. We will continue to evaluate our footprint as we seek to enter new markets, strengthen existing clusters and improve operating leverage. We are executing on our business plan and remain in a strong position to capitalize on the robust growth of the Hispanic marketplace."

Net revenue increased to $75.1 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2005 from $68.9 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2004, an increase of $6.2 million, or 9%. Our television and radio segments together accounted for $5.2 million of the increase, which was primarily attributable to an increase in advertising rates. The remaining $1.0 million of the increase came from our outdoor segment and was primarily attributable to an increase in advertising rates.

Company operating expenses increased to $43.2 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2005 from $40.1 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2004, an increase of $3.1 million, or 8%. The overall increase came mainly from our television and radio segments, which together accounted for an increase of $2.5 million. The increase from these segments was primarily attributable to a one-time recovery of prior year expenses of $1.0 million in accordance with the terms of an amendment to our marketing and sales agreement with Univision, an increase in commissions and national representation fees associated with the increase in net revenue, an increase in news production costs due to the expansion of our newscast operations and an increase in salaries, as well as expenses associated with radio station KBMB-FM acquired in the second half of 2004 and radio station KDLD-FM/KDLE-FM, partially offset by lower bad debt expense. The increase in operating expenses also came from an increase from our outdoor segment, which accounted for $0.6 million of the overall increase. The increase from this segment was primarily attributable to increased leasing expense and expenses associated with the addition of the new Sacramento bus advertising contract.

Broadcast cash flow increased to $32.0 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2005 from $28.9 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2004, an increase of $3.1 million, or 11%.

The increase was mainly attributable to higher expenses associated with our compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, partially offset by lower insurance expenses.

EBITDA as adjusted increased to $27.8 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2005 from $24.8 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2004, an increase of $3.0 million, or 12%.

Excluding the net revenue contributed during the first half of 2004 by the radio stations in Chicago and Fresno that we sold in the first half of 2004, net revenue would have increased by $11.9 million. The overall increase came mainly from our television and radio segments, which together accounted for an increase of $9.9 million. The increase from these segments was attributable to increased inventory sold, increased rates for that inventory and increased revenue due to a full six-month period of operations of our 2004 acquisitions. The remaining $1.4 million of the overall increase in net revenue came from our outdoor segment and was attributable to an increase in advertising rates.

Company operating expenses increased to $83.1 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2005 from $78.7 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2004, an increase of $4.4 million, or 6%.

Pro Forma Segment Results

With the sale of the Company's radio assets in Chicago, Illinois in the second quarter of 2004, the Company no longer has any remaining broadcasting operations in that market. As a result, the Company has elected to present its segment information on a pro forma basis by eliminating its broadcasting results from that market in both of the periods presented so that the comparisons between the periods will be meaningful. The Company believes that pro forma presentation is appropriate and useful to investors when the Company exits an entire market or enters a new market. A table reconciling each pro forma financial measure to its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is included beginning on page 9.
