La Tricolor KLNZ-FM Ranked Number One Spanish-Language Radio Station and Number One in Afternoon Drive Time Among Latino Adults

Jose KVVA-FM Ranked Number Two Spanish-Language Radio Station and Number One in Morning Drive Time Among Latino Adults













PHOENIX, June 25, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Entravision Communications Corporation (NYSE: EVC), a diversified Spanish-language media company, today announced that its La Tricolor KLNZ and Jose KVVA are the top two Spanish-language radio stations among Latino Adults 18-49 in the Phoenix market. La Tricolor KLNZ is the number one Spanish-language radio station in Phoenix, Arizona, with an 8.3 share of listening during the full week (Monday through Sunday from 6:00 a.m. to midnight) among Latino Adults 18-49, according to the May ratings report released by Nielsen Audio.

Entravision's La Tricolor KLNZ's Erazno y La Chokolata is the runaway leader in afternoon drive time. The show commands an 11.8 share among Latino Adults 18-49 - twice its nearest Spanish language competitor - and its share is up 8% month-to-month. Erazno y La Chokolata is also the leading afternoon drive program among Latino Adults 18-34 and 25-54. Entravision's La Tricolor KLNZ also performed well in morning drive time due to a strong debut from its morning show, El Levanton con el Foras. The Spanish-language program launched in March and has averaged a 7.7 share of Latinos 18-49 since its start, up 17% over its March performance.

Entravision's Jose KVVA-FM was the number two ranked Spanish-language radio station in May among Latino Adults 18-49 during the full week, with a 7.3 share of listening. KVVA's ratings success is due largely to the popularity of its morning program, El Genio Lucas. El Genio Lucas is the most listened-to program in morning drive time (Monday through Friday from 6:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m.) in Phoenix among Latino Adults 18-49 with a 10.3 market share and grew 32% in average audience month-to-month.
