TUESDAY, MARCH 1: GLENN MILLER

Profile America -- Tuesday, March 1st. One of the great names in American popular music was born on this date in 1904 in Clarinda, Iowa -- Glenn Miller. He led a band which came to personify the swing era of the late 1930s and World War II -- turning out hit after hit, including "In the Mood," "Moonlight Serenade," and "String of Pearls." Miller volunteered to join the Army Air Corps and disappeared on a flight over the English Channel only a few months before the end of the war. When Glenn Miller was at the height of his popularity, Americans spent just under $500 million a year on radios, musical instruments, and recordings. Today, we spend nearly $8 billion annually on recordings alone. You can find these and more facts about America from the U.S. Census Bureau, online at www.census.gov.

Grupo Radio Centro Reports Results for Fourth Quarter and Year-End Results for the Period Ended December 31, 2010

Grupo Radio Centro Reports Results for Fourth Quarter and Year-End Results for the Period Ended December 31, 2010

MEXICO CITY, Feb. 28, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Grupo Radio Centro, S.A.B. de C.V. (NYSE: RC, BMV: RCENTRO-A) (the "Company"), one of Mexico's leading radio broadcasting companies, announced today its results of operations for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2010. All figures were prepared in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standards issued by the Mexican Board for Research and Development of Financial Information Standards.

Fourth Quarter Results

Broadcasting revenue in the fourth quarter 2010 was Ps. 306,908,000, a 17.6% increase compared to the Ps. 260,873,000 reported in the fourth quarter 2009. This increase was mainly attributable to higher advertising expenditures by the Company's clients in Mexico during the fourth quarter 2010 compared to the same period 2009.

The Company's broadcasting expenses (excluding depreciation, amortization and corporate, general and administrative expenses) in the fourth quarter 2010 were Ps. 187,574,000, an 8.5% increase compared to the Ps. 172,883,000 reported in the fourth quarter 2009. This increase was primarily due to (i) higher commissions paid to the Company's sales force due to higher broadcasting revenue in the fourth quarter 2010 compared to the same period in 2009, (ii) research and advertising expenses made during the fourth quarter of 2010, and (iii) production costs of talk shows . This increase was partially offset by a decrease in broadcasting expenses from the Los Angeles radio station KXOS-FM.

For the fourth quarter 2010, the Company recorded broadcasting income (i.e., broadcasting revenue minus broadcasting expenses, excluding depreciation, amortization and corporate, general and administrative expenses) of Ps. 119,334,000, a 35.6% increase compared to the Ps. 87,990,000 reported in the fourth quarter 2009. This increase was mainly attributable to the increase in broadcasting revenue, as described above.

Depreciation and amortization expenses in the fourth quarter 2010 were Ps. 5,744,000, a slight decrease compared to the Ps. 6,466,000 reported in the fourth quarter 2009, as a result of a reduction in the amount of depreciable assets.

The Company's corporate, general and administrative expenses were Ps. 4,574,000 in both the fourth quarter of 2009 and 2010.

The Company recorded operating income of Ps. 109,016,000,000 in the fourth quarter 2010, a 41.7% increase compared to the Ps. 76,950,000 in operating income reported in the fourth quarter 2009. This increase was due to increased broadcasting revenue during the fourth quarter 2010 compared to the fourth quarter 2009 as described above.

During the fourth quarter 2010, other expenses, net, were Ps. 6,118,000, a 70.4% decrease compared to the Ps. 20,695,000 reported in the fourth quarter 2009. This decrease was mainly attributable to a reduction of the reserve for labor liabilities in 2010.

The Company's comprehensive financing cost in the fourth quarter 2010 was Ps. 8,015,000, compared to Ps. 13,972,000 in the fourth quarter 2009. This change was primarily due to a Ps. 7,092,000 loss on net foreign currency exchange in the fourth quarter 2009, which was attributable to a decline in the peso value of a U.S. dollar denominated loan from the Company to GRC LA, LLC, our U.S. subsidiary compared to a Ps. 53,000 loss on the loan due to a relatively lower appreciation of the peso against the U.S. dollar in the fourth quarter 2010.

During the fourth quarter 2010, the Company recorded income before taxes of Ps. 94,883,000, compared to income before taxes of Ps. 42,283,000 reported in the fourth quarter 2009, which was primarily attributable to an increase in operating income, as well as a decrease in other expenses, net, and in the Company's comprehensive financing cost during the fourth quarter 2010, as described above.

The Company recorded income taxes of Ps. 21,984,000 in the fourth quarter 2010, an increase of 29.3% compared to the Ps. 16,997,000 recorded in the fourth quarter 2009. This increase was due to higher taxable income in the fourth quarter 2010 than the fourth quarter 2009.

As a result of the foregoing, the Company recorded net income in the fourth quarter 2010 of Ps. 72,899,000, a 188.3% increase compared to a net income of Ps. 25,286,000 in the fourth quarter 2009.

Twelve-Month Results

For the year ended December 31, 2010, broadcasting revenue was Ps. 907,925,000, a 15.5% increase compared to the Ps. 785,869,000 reported in the same period 2009. The increase was mainly attributable to an increase in advertising expenditures by the Company's clients, who purchased more airtime during 2010 than the comparable period in 2009, as well as to revenues from the Los Angeles radio station KXOS-FM during 2010.

The Company's broadcasting expenses (excluding depreciation, amortization and corporate, general and administrative expenses) for the year ended December 31, 2010 were Ps. 688,113,000, a 15.6% increase compared to the Ps. 595,011,000 reported in the same period 2009. This increase was primarily due to (i) broadcasting expenses incurred in connection with KXOS-FM beginning in April 2009, resulting in a comparison between twelve months for the 2010 period and eight and a half months for the 2009 period, (ii) higher sales commissions due to the increase in broadcasting revenue, and (iii) expenses related to the Company's mass media advertising campaigns.

Broadcasting income (i.e., broadcasting revenue minus broadcasting expenses, excluding depreciation, amortization and corporate, general and administrative expenses) for the year ended December 31, 2010 was Ps. 219,812,000, a 15.2% increase compared to the Ps. 190,858,000 reported in the same period 2009.

Depreciation and amortization expenses for the year ended December 31, 2010 were Ps. 23,861,000, an 8.3% decrease compared to the Ps. 26,024,000 reported in the same period 2009. This decrease was due to a reduction in the amount of depreciable assets.

The Company's corporate, general and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2010 were Ps. 14,939,000, the same amount reported in 2009.

As a result of the foregoing, the Company recorded operating income of Ps. 181,012,000 for the year ended December 31, 2010, a 20.8% increase compared to the Ps. 149,895,000 reported in the same period 2009.

Other expenses, net, for the year ended December 31, 2010 were Ps. 42,508,000, a 36.1% decrease compared to the Ps. 66,495,000 reported in the same period 2009. This decrease was mainly attributable to legal expenses incurred in 2009 related to contractual agreements for the Los Angeles radio station, as well as revenue from tax credits during the third quarter 2010 and to a reduction of the reserve for labor liabilities in the fourth quarter 2010.

The Company's comprehensive cost of financing for the year ended December 31, 2010 was Ps. 26,116,000, compared to Ps. 40,615,000 in the same period 2009. This change was primarily due to a lower loss on net foreign currency exchange from Ps. 17,140,000 in the year ended December 31, 2009 to a Ps. 217,000 loss on net foreign currency exchange in the year ended December 31, 2010.

For the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company recorded income before taxes of Ps. 112,388,000 compared to income before taxes of Ps. 42,785,000 in the same period 2009, mainly due to the increase in broadcasting revenue and to the aforementioned decrease in the Company's other expenses, net, and comprehensive cost of financing.

The Company recorded income taxes of Ps. 51,978,000 for the year ended December 31, 2010, compared to Ps. 38,342,000 recorded in the same period 2009.

As a result of the foregoing, the Company recorded net income of Ps. 60,410,000 for the year ended December 31, 2010, a significant increase compared to the net income of Ps. 4,443,000 reported for 2009.

Will a New Nuclear Reactor Power the United States Back to Energy Independence? HDNet's 'Dan Rather Reports' Investigates

Will a New Nuclear Reactor Power the United States Back to Energy Independence? HDNet's 'Dan Rather Reports' Investigates

Nuclear power gets a surprising makeover, but is the U.S. ready to put it back in play?

Tuesday, March 1 at 8:00 p.m. ET

DALLAS, Feb. 28, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Tomorrow night's "Dan Rather Reports" presents a surprising look at nuclear power and how new developments in the field have created cleaner, more efficient reactors that could create a virtual "nuclear renaissance." But, the price tag for building these new reactors may be more than the U.S. Department of Energy is ready for.

(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20080324/HDNETLOGO)

Although the United States led the way in the development of nuclear energy back in the 1950s, nuclear power now conjures up memories of the disasters at Three Mile Island and Chernobyl. For thirty years, not a single new nuclear power plant was started in the U.S.

On Tuesday's program, Rather speaks to Eric Loewen, a nuclear scientist at GE-Hitachi in charge of advanced reactor design. Loewen and his team have developed a new nuclear reactor called PRISM that is actually able to recycle dangerous nuclear waste to create its own fuel.

"So we can take used nuclear fuel. There's 53,000 metric tons around the country at different nuclear power plants," Loewen explained to Rather. "That's what you could use for fuel for this PRISM reactor."

So, what is the hold up on moving forward with the PRISM? So far, it only exists on paper, on blueprints in Loewen's office. Loewen says the U.S. Department of Energy needs to make this new (and possibly expensive technology) a priority in a recycling budget that is only set at $40 million.

Will the U.S. be able to ride this new nuclear technology back to the lead in energy production, or will other countries beat us to the punch?

"Dan Rather Reports: Power Play" premieres on HDNet, Tuesday, March 1 at 8:00 p.m. ET with an encore at 11:00 p.m. ET.

Forward-Looking Statements, Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Reconciliations:

Certain statements in this press release constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding plans to maximize ticket sales and improve operating performance; the company's current investment priorities; anticipated increases to online ticketing conversion; anticipated growth in the company's online advertising business and related resources; overall year-to-date ticket sales trends; the company's anticipated artist pipeline for 2011; and better pricing and promotion of events and cost management. Live Nation wishes to caution you that there are some known and unknown factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements, including but not limited to operational challenges in achieving strategic objectives and executing on the company's plans, the risk that the company's markets do not evolve as anticipated, challenges related to the post-merger integration of Live Nation and Ticketmaster, the potential impact of the economic slowdown and operational challenges associated with selling tickets and staging events.

Live Nation refers you to the documents it files from time to time with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, specifically the section titled "Item 1A. Risk Factors" of the company's most recent Annual Report filed on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and its Current Reports on Form 8-K, which contain and identify other important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the company's projections or forward-looking statements. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements which speak only as of the date on which they are made. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements by or concerning Live Nation are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements above. Live Nation does not undertake any obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements because of new information, future events or otherwise.

This press release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures as defined by SEC Regulation G. A reconciliation of each such measure to its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, together with an explanation of why management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors, is provided below.

Adjusted Operating Income (Loss), or AOI, is a non-GAAP financial measure that the company defines as operating income (loss) before acquisition expenses (including transaction costs, changes in the fair value of accrued acquisition-related contingent consideration arrangements, merger bonuses, payments under the Azoff Trust note and merger-related severance), depreciation and amortization (including goodwill impairments), loss (gain) on sale of operating assets and non-cash and certain stock-based compensation expense (including expense associated with grants of certain stock-based awards which are classified as liabilities). The company uses AOI to evaluate the performance of its operating segments. The company believes that information about AOI assists investors by allowing them to evaluate changes in the operating results of the portfolio of the businesses separate from non-operational factors that affect net income, thus providing insights into both operations and the other factors that affect reported results. AOI is not calculated or presented in accordance with GAAP. A limitation of the use of AOI as a performance measure is that it does not reflect the periodic costs of certain amortizing assets used in generating revenue in the company's business. Accordingly, AOI should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, operating income (loss), net income (loss), and other measures of financial performance reported in accordance with GAAP. Furthermore, this measure may vary among other companies; thus, AOI as presented herein may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

Free Cash Flow is a non-GAAP financial measure that the company defines as Adjusted Operating Income (Loss) less maintenance capital expenditures, less net cash interest expense, less cash taxes, less net distributions to minority interest partners, plus distributions from investments in nonconsolidated affiliates net of contributions to investments in nonconsolidated affiliates. The company uses free cash flow, among other measures, to evaluate the ability of its operations to generate cash that is available for purposes other than maintenance capital expenditures. The company believes that information about free cash flow provides investors with an important perspective on the cash available to service debt and make acquisitions. Free cash flow is not calculated or presented in accordance with GAAP. A limitation of the use of free cash flow as a performance measure is that it does not necessarily represent funds available for operations and is not necessarily a measure of the company's ability to fund its cash needs. Accordingly, free cash flow should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, operating income (loss) and other measures of financial performance reported in accordance with GAAP. Furthermore, this measure may vary among other companies; thus, free cash flow as presented herein may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

Free Cash is a non-GAAP financial measure that the company defines as cash and cash equivalents less ticketing-related client funds, less event-related deferred revenue, less accrued expenses due to artists and for cash collected on behalf of others for ticket sales, plus event-related prepaids. The company uses free cash as a proxy for how much cash it has available to, among other things, optionally repay debt balances, make acquisitions and finance venue and other revenue generating capital expenditures. Free cash is not calculated or presented in accordance with GAAP. A limitation of the use of free cash as a performance measure is that it does not necessarily represent funds available from operations and it is not necessarily a measure of our ability to fund our cash needs. Accordingly, free cash should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, cash and cash equivalents and other measures of financial performance reported in accordance with GAAP. Furthermore, this measure may vary among other companies; thus, free cash as presented herein may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.
