CLEAR CHANNEL INTERNATIONAL B.V. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1 NATURE OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Nature of Business
Clear Channel Outdoor Holdings, Inc. (CCOH or the Parent Company) is an outdoor advertising company, which owns and operates advertising display faces in the United States and internationally. CCOH has two reportable business segments: Americas and International. CCOHs International segment (CCI) operates across 21 countries in Europe, Asia, Australia and New Zealand and provides advertising on street furniture and transit displays, billboards, mall displays, Smartbike programs, wallscapes and other displays, which are owned or operated under lease agreements. Clear Channel International B.V. (CCIBV or the Company) is a subsidiary of the CCI business and consists of CCI operations primarily in Europe, Australia and Singapore. These consolidated financial statements represent the consolidated results of operations, financial position and cash flows of CCIBV.
History
On November 11, 2005, CCOH became a publicly traded company through an initial public offering (IPO), in which 10%, or 35.0 million shares, of CCOHs Class A common stock was sold. Prior to the IPO, CCOH was an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of iHeartCommunications, Inc. (iHeartCommunications), a diversified media and entertainment company. On July 30, 2008, iHeartCommunications completed its merger (the Merger) with a subsidiary of iHeartMedia, Inc. (iHeartMedia), a company formed by a group of private equity funds sponsored by Bain Capital Partners, LLC and Thomas H. Lee Partners, L.P. (together, the Sponsors). iHeartCommunications is now owned indirectly by iHeartMedia.
Agreements with iHeartCommunications
There are several agreements which govern the Companys relationship with CCOH, CCI and the CCOH relationship with iHeartCommunications related to corporate, employee, tax and other services. Certain of these costs, as applicable, are allocated to the Company from CCOH. iHeartCommunications has the right to terminate these agreements in various circumstances. As of the date of the issuance of these consolidated financial statements, no notice of termination of any of these agreements has been received from iHeartCommunications.
Basis of Presentation
These consolidated financial statements are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) and have been derived from the accounting records of CCOH using the historical results of operations and historical bases of assets and liabilities of the Company. Assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses that pertain to the Company have been included in these consolidated financial statements. These consolidated financial statements include the results of operations in the following markets: Australia, Belgium, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Holland, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, New Zealand, Norway, Poland, Singapore, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom.
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. Also included in the consolidated financial statements are entities for which the Company has a controlling financial interest or is the primary beneficiary. Investments in companies in which the Company owns 20 percent to 50 percent of the voting common stock or otherwise exercises significant influence over operating and financial policies of a company are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. All significant intercompany accounts have been eliminated.
The Company utilizes the services of CCOH and CCI for certain functions, such as certain legal, finance, internal audit, financial reporting, tax advisory, insurance, global information technology, environmental matters and human resources services, including various employee benefit programs. The cost of these services has been allocated to the Company and included in these consolidated financial statements. The Companys management considers these allocations to have been made on a reasonable basis. A complete discussion of the relationship with CCOH, including a description of the costs that have been allocated to the Company, is included in Note 6, Related Party Transactions to the consolidated financial statements.

CLEAR CHANNEL INTERNATIONAL B.V. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
(UNAUDITED)
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments, and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes including, but not limited to, legal, tax and insurance accruals. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The consolidated financial statements included herein may not be indicative of the financial position, results of operations or cash flows had CCIBV operated as a separate entity during the periods presented or for future periods. As these consolidated financial statements present a portion of the businesses of CCOH, the net assets of CCIBV have been presented as CCOHs net investment in CCIBV. CCOHs investment in CCIBV includes the accumulated deficit of CCIBV net of cash transfers related to cash management functions performed by CCOH.
NOTE 2 NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
During the second quarter of 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial StatementsGoing Concern (Subtopic 205-40): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entitys Ability to Continue as a Going Concern. This update provides U.S. GAAP guidance on managements responsibility in evaluating whether there is substantial doubt about a companys ability to continue as a going concern and about related footnote disclosures. For each reporting period, the Company will be required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about a companys ability to continue as a going concern within one year from the date the financial statements are issued. The amendments in this update are effective for the annual period ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual periods and interim periods thereafter. Early application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the provisions of this new standard on its consolidated financial statements.
During the first quarter of 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-02, Consolidation (Topic 810), Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis. This new standard eliminates the deferral of FAS 167, which has allowed entities with interest in certain investment funds to follow the previous consolidation guidance in FIN 46(R) and makes other changes to both the variable interest model and the voting model. The standard is effective for annual periods, and for interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2015. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material effect on the Companys consolidated financial statements.
During the second quarter of 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, Interest-Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs. This update simplifies the presentation of debt issuance costs as a deduction from the carrying value of the outstanding debt balance rather than showing the debt issuance costs as an asset. The standard is effective for annual periods, and for interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2015. The retrospective adoption of this guidance resulted in the reclassification of debt issuance costs of $8.5 million as of December 31, 2015, which are now reflected as Long-term debt fees in Note 4.
During the third quarter of 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date. This update provides a one-year deferral of the effective date for ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ASU No. 2014-09 provides guidance for the recognition, measurement and disclosure of revenue resulting from contracts with customers and will supersede virtually all of the current revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP. The standard is effective for the first interim period within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the provisions of this new standard on its consolidated financial statements.
During the third quarter of 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-16, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments. This update eliminates the requirement for an acquirer in a business
7
CLEAR CHANNEL INTERNATIONAL B.V. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
(UNAUDITED)
combination to account for measurement-period adjustments retrospectively. Instead, acquirers must recognize measurement-period adjustments during the period in which they determine the amounts, including the effect on earnings of any amounts they would have recorded in previous periods if the accounting had been completed at the acquisition date. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material effect on the Companys consolidated financial statements.
During the first quarter of 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The new leasing standard presents significant changes to the balance sheets of lessees. Lessor accounting is updated to align with certain changes in the lessee model and the new revenue recognition standard which was issued in the third quarter of 2015. The standard is effective for annual periods, and for interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the provisions of this new standard on its consolidated financial statements.
During the second quarter of 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial InstrumentsCredit Losses (Topic 326). The new standard changes the impairment model for most financial assets and certain other instruments. Entities will be required to use a model that will result in the earlier recognition of allowances for losses for trade and other receivables, held-to-maturity debt securities, loans and other instruments. For available-for-sale debt securities with unrealized losses, the losses will be recognized as allowances rather than as reductions in the amortized cost of the securities. The standard is effective for annual periods, and for interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the provisions of this new standard on its consolidated financial statements.
During the third quarter of 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230). The new standard addresses the classification of cash flows related to certain cash receipts and cash payments. Additionally, the standard clarifies how the predominance principle should be used when cash receipts and cash payments have aspects of more than one class of cash flows. First, an entity will apply the guidance in Topic 230 and other applicable topics. If there is no guidance for those cash receipts and cash payments, an entity will determine each separately identifiable source or use and classify the receipt or payment based on the nature of the cash flow. If a receipt or payment has aspects of more than one class of cash flows and cannot be separated, the classification will depend on the predominant source of use. The standard is effective for annual periods, and for interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the provisions of this new standard on its consolidated financial statements.
NOTE 3 PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT, INTANGIBLE ASSETS AND GOODWILL

During the second quarter of 2016, the Company sold its business in Turkey. As a result, the Company recognized a net loss of $56.6 million, which includes $32.2 million in cumulative translation adjustments that were recognized upon the sale of the Companys subsidiaries in Turkey.
On October 24, 2016, the Company sold its International outdoor business in Australia (Australia Outdoor), for cash proceeds of $203.9 million.

Goodwill
Annual Impairment Test to Goodwill
The Company performs its annual impairment test on July 1 of each year. Each country constitutes a separate reporting unit for purposes of the goodwill impairment test using the guidance in ASC 350-20-55.
The goodwill impairment test is a two-step process. The first step, used to screen for potential impairment, compares the fair value of the reporting unit with its carrying amount, including goodwill. If applicable, the second step, used to measure the amount of the impairment loss, compares the implied fair value of the reporting unit goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill.
Each of the Companys reporting units is valued using a discounted cash flow model which requires estimating future cash flows expected to be generated from the reporting unit, discounted to their present value using a risk-adjusted discount rate. Terminal values were also estimated and discounted to their present value. Assessing the recoverability of goodwill requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions about sales, operating margins, growth rates and discount rates based on its budgets, business plans, economic projections, anticipated future cash flows and marketplace data. There are inherent uncertainties related to these factors and managements judgment in applying these factors.
The Company recognized goodwill impairment of $7.3 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 related to one country and concluded no goodwill impairment charge was required for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015.
The following table presents the changes in the carrying amount of goodwill. The provisions of ASC 350-20-50-1 require the disclosure of cumulative impairment. As a result of the Merger, a new basis in goodwill was recorded in accordance with ASC 805-10. All impairments shown in the table below have been recorded subsequent to the Merger and, therefore, do not include any pre-Merger impairment.

NOTE 5 COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENCIES AND GUARANTEES
Legal Proceedings
The Company and its subsidiaries are involved in certain legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business and, as required, have accrued an estimate of the probable costs for the resolution of those claims for which the occurrence of loss is probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. These estimates have been developed in consultation with counsel and are based upon an analysis of potential results, assuming a combination of litigation and settlement strategies. It is possible, however, that future results of operations for any particular period could be materially affected by changes in the Companys assumptions or the effectiveness of its strategies related to these proceedings. Additionally, due to the inherent uncertainty of litigation, there can be no assurance that the resolution of any particular claim or proceeding would not have a material adverse effect on the Companys financial condition or results of operations.
Although the Company is involved in a variety of legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business, a large portion of the Companys litigation arises in the following contexts: commercial disputes; employment and benefits related claims; governmental fines; and tax disputes.
On April 21, 2015, inspections were conducted at the premises of Clear Channel in Denmark and Sweden as part of an investigation by Danish competition authorities. Additionally, on the same day Clear Channel UK received a communication from the UK competition authorities, also in connection with the investigation by Danish competition authorities. The Company and its affiliates are cooperating with the national competition authorities.

The effective tax rates for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 were (13.6%) and 27.2%, respectively. The effective tax rates for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 were (13.4%) and (5.0%), respectively. The effective rates were primarily impacted by certain nondeductible interest and other intercompany charges and the Companys inability to benefit from losses in certain jurisdictions. In addition, the effective rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 was impacted by the pre-tax loss from the sale of the Companys outdoor advertising business in Turkey, which is non-deductible for income tax purposes due to the participation exemption on the sale of the shareholdings in the jurisdiction of the subsidiary holding company.
NOTE 8 POSTRETIREMENT BENEFIT PLANS
Certain of the Companys subsidiaries participate in defined benefit or defined contribution plans that cover substantially all regular employees. The Company deposits funds under various fiduciary-type arrangements or provides reserves for these plans. Benefits under the defined benefit plans are typically based either on years of service and the employees compensation (generally during a fixed number of years immediately before retirement) or on annual credits. The range of assumptions that are used for the defined benefit plans reflect the different economic environments within the various countries.

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
You should read the following discussion of our results of operations and financial condition together with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this document. This discussion contains forward-looking statements and involves numerous risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, those described under Forward-Looking Statements. Actual results may differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.
Format of Presentation
Managements discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations (MD&A) should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related footnotes. Our discussion is presented on a consolidated basis. In this MD&A, references to (i) we, us or our are to Clear Channel International B.V. together with its consolidated subsidiaries, (ii) Issuer are to Clear Channel International B.V. without any of its subsidiaries, (iii) Parent Company are to Clear Channel Outdoor Holdings, Inc., our indirect parent company and (iv) iHeartCommunications are to iHeartCommunications, Inc., the indirect parent of Parent Company. We provide outdoor advertising services in geographic regions using various digital and traditional display types. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 2016 presentation.
Management typically monitors our businesses by reviewing the average rates, average revenue per display, occupancy and inventory levels of each of our display types by market. Our advertising revenue is derived from selling advertising space on the displays we own or operate in key markets, consisting primarily of billboards, street furniture and transit displays. Part of our long-term strategy is to pursue the technology of digital displays, including flat screens, LCDs and LEDs, as additions to traditional methods of displaying our clients advertisements. We are currently installing these technologies in certain markets.
Advertising revenue is highly correlated to changes in gross domestic product (GDP) as advertising spending has historically trended in line with GDP within each market. Our results are also impacted by fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates as well as economic conditions in the markets in which we have operations.
Relationship with iHeartCommunications
There are several agreements which govern our relationship with Parent Company and Parent Companys relationship with iHeartCommunications including a Master Agreement, Corporate Services Agreement, Employee Matters Agreement and Tax Matters Agreement, which relate to corporate, employee, tax and other services provided by iHeartCommunications. iHeartCommunications has the right to terminate these agreements in various circumstances. As of November 8, 2016, no notice of termination of any of these agreements has been received from iHeartCommunications.
Under the Corporate Services Agreement, iHeartCommunications provides management services to Parent Company and its subsidiaries, including us. These services are allocated to us based on actual direct costs incurred or allocated by iHeartCommunications based on headcount, revenue or other factors on a pro rata basis. For the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, we recorded approximately $1.1 million and $1.0 million, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, we recorded approximately $3.8 million and $3.5 million, respectively. Such costs are a component of corporate expenses for these services.

Consolidated Revenue
For the three months ended September 30, 2016, revenue decreased $0.1 million compared to the same period of 2015. Excluding the $6.0 million impact from movements in foreign exchange rates, revenues increased $5.9 million compared to the same period of 2015. The increase in revenue was primarily driven by revenue growth from new digital assets and new contracts in Australia, Italy, Spain and Sweden, partially offset by lower revenue in the United Kingdom as a result of the London bus shelter contract not being renewed and the sale of our Turkey market during the second quarter of 2016.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, revenue decreased $12.3 million compared to the same period of 2015. Excluding the $19.1 million impact from movements in foreign exchange rates, revenues increased $6.8 million compared to the same period of 2015. The increase in revenue is due to growth from new digital assets and new contracts in Australia, France, Italy and Sweden, which was partially offset by lower revenue in the United Kingdom as a result of the London bus shelter contract not being renewed.
Consolidated Direct Operating Expenses
For the three months ended September 30, 2016, direct operating expenses decreased $3.7 million compared to the same period of 2015. Excluding the $4.5 million impact from movements in foreign exchange rates, direct operating expenses increased $0.8 million compared to the same period of 2015. The increase in direct operating expenses was primarily a result of higher site lease and production expenses in countries experiencing revenue growth, partially offset by lower site lease expense due to lower revenue in the United Kingdom as a result of the London bus shelter contract not being renewed, lower direct operating expenses as a result of the sale our Turkey market during the second quarter of 2016 and site lease termination fees incurred in the third quarter of 2015 related to our strategic efficiency initiatives.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, direct operating expenses decreased $14.8 million compared to the same period of 2015. Excluding the $14.3 million impact from movements in foreign exchange rates, direct operating expenses decreased $0.5 million compared to the same period of 2015. The decrease was primarily a result of lower site lease expense due to lower revenue in the United Kingdom as a result of the London bus shelter contract not being renewed, partially offset by higher site lease and production expenses in countries experiencing revenue growth.
Consolidated Selling, General and Administrative (SG&A) Expenses
For the three months ended September 30, 2016, SG&A expenses decreased $0.2 million compared to the same period of 2015. Excluding the $1.3 million impact from movements in foreign exchange rates, SG&A expenses increased $1.1 million compared to the same period of 2015. An increase in SG&A expenses related to higher sales expenses in countries experiencing growth was partially offset by a reduction in SG&A expenses resulting from the sale of the business in Turkey during the second quarter of 2016.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, SG&A expenses increased $0.9 million compared to the same period of 2015. Excluding the $3.2 million impact from movements in foreign exchange rates, SG&A expenses increased $4.1 million compared to the same period of 2015. The increase in SG&A expenses was primarily due to higher sales expenses and office renovation costs in Australia and the United Kingdom.
Corporate Expenses
For the three months ended September 30, 2016, Corporate expenses decreased $0.1 million compared to the same period of 2015. Excluding the $1.5 million impact from movements in foreign exchange rates, corporate expenses increased $1.4 million compared to the same period of 2015.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, Corporate expenses decreased $0.1 million compared to the same period of 2015. Excluding the $2.4 million impact from movements in foreign exchange rates, corporate expenses increased $2.3 million compared to the same period of 2015.

Strategic Revenue and Efficiency Initiatives
Included in the amounts for direct operating expenses, SG&A and corporate expenses discussed above are expenses incurred in connection with our strategic revenue and efficiency initiatives. The costs were incurred to improve revenue growth, enhance yield, reduce costs, and organize each business to maximize performance and profitability. These costs consist primarily of consolidation of locations and positions, severance related to workforce initiatives, consulting expenses and other costs incurred in connection with improving our businesses. These costs are expected to provide benefits in future periods as the initiative results are realized.
Strategic revenue and efficiency costs were $3.0 million and $7.9 million during the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Of these costs, $0.1 million are reported within direct operating expenses, $2.0 million are reported within SG&A and $0.9 million are reported within corporate expense for the three months ended September 30, 2016 compared to $6.2 million within direct operating expenses, $1.0 million within SG&A and $.7 million within corporate expense for the three months ended September 30, 2015.
Strategic revenue and efficiency costs were $4.8 million and $14.6 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Of these costs, $0.5 million are reported within direct operating expenses, $3.0 million are reported within SG&A and $1.3 million are reported within corporate expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 compared to $6.8 million, $2.3 million and $5.5 million, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2015.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization decreased $5.2 million and $14.4 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, respectively, compared to the same periods of 2015 primarily due to the impact of movements in foreign exchange rates and assets becoming fully depreciated or amortized.
Impairment Charges
The Company performs its annual impairment test on July 1 of each year. In addition, we test for impairment of property, plant and equipment whenever events and circumstances indicate that depreciable assets might be impaired. As a result of these impairment tests, we recorded impairment charges of $7.3 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, related to goodwill in one market. We concluded no goodwill impairment charge was required for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015.
Other Operating Income (Expense), Net
Other operating income, net was $0.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016. Other operating expense, net of $55.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 primarily related to the loss on the sale of the Turkey business in the second quarter of 2016. The Company recognized a net loss of $56.6 million which includes cumulative translation adjustments of $32.2 million.
Other operating income, net of $3.8 million and $5.1 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, respectively, primarily related to the net gains recognized from the disposal of operating and fixed assets.
Interest Expense, Net
Interest expense, net decreased $7.8 million and $21.8 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, respectively, compared to the same periods of 2015. Interest expense related to the Senior Notes issued in December 2015 was offset by lower average outstanding balances on related party notes payable.

Equity in Earnings (Loss) of Nonconsolidated Affiliates
Equity in loss of nonconsolidated affiliates of $0.8 million and $2.2 million for three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, respectively, included the loss from our equity investments.
Equity in loss of nonconsolidated affiliates of $1.2 million and $1.9 million for three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, respectively, included the loss from our equity investments.
Income Tax Benefit (Expense)
Our operations are included in a consolidated income tax return filed by iHeartMedia. However, for purposes of our financial statements, our provision for income taxes was computed assuming that we filed separate consolidated income tax returns together with our subsidiaries.
The effective tax rates for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 were (13.6%) and 27.2%, respectively. The effective tax rates for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 were (13.4%) and (5.0%), respectively. The effective rates were primarily impacted by certain nondeductible interest and other intercompany charges and the Companys inability to benefit from losses in certain jurisdictions. In addition, the effective rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 was impacted by the pre-tax loss from the sale of the Companys outdoor advertising business in Turkey, which is non-deductible for income tax purposes due to the participation exemption on the sale of the shareholdings in the jurisdiction of the subsidiary holding company.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Operating Activities
Cash provided by operating activities was $95.5 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 compared to $7.0 million of cash provided during the nine months ended September 30, 2015. The increase in cash provided by operating activities is primarily attributed to changes in working capital balances, particularly accounts receivable, which was driven primarily by improved collections.
Investing Activities
Cash used for investing activities of $79.8 million and $39.5 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, primarily reflected capital expenditures of $60.4 million and $38.2 million, respectively, related to new advertising structures such as billboards and street furniture and renewals of existing contracts.

Financing Activities
Cash used for financing activities of $6.2 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 primarily reflected the net payments of related party notes payable of $4.5 million and payments of long-term debt of $1.9 million partially offset by net transfers from related parties of $0.7 million.
Cash provided by financing activities of $45.1 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 primarily reflected net transfers from related parties of $58.1 million, partially offset by net payments made on related party subordinated notes payable.
Cash Paid for Interest on Related Party Subordinated Notes Payable and Long-term Debt
During the nine months ended September 30, 2016 we made a cash interest payment of $9.8 million on the 8.75% Senior Notes due 2020. We made no cash interest payments in relation to interest incurred on related party subordinated notes payable or long-term debt during the nine months ended September 30, 2015.
Anticipated Cash Requirements
Our primary sources of liquidity are cash on hand and cash flow from operations. Based on our current and anticipated levels of operations and conditions in our markets, we believe that cash on hand and cash flows from operations will enable us to meet our working capital, capital expenditure and other funding requirements. We believe our long-term plans, which include promoting outdoor media spending and capitalizing on our diverse geographic and product opportunities, including the continued deployment of digital displays, will enable us to continue to generate cash flows from operations sufficient to meet our liquidity and funding requirements long term. However, significant assumptions underlie this belief, including, among other things, that we will continue to be successful in implementing our business strategy and that there will be no material adverse developments in our business, liquidity or capital requirements. Our anticipated results are subject to significant uncertainty and may be affected by events beyond our control, including prevailing economic, financial and industry conditions. At September 30, 2016, we had $56.3 million of cash on our balance sheet, a portion of which is held by non-wholly owned subsidiaries or is otherwise subject to certain restrictions and not readily accessible to us. Our policy is to permanently reinvest the earnings of our subsidiaries as these earnings generally remain in those jurisdictions for operating needs and continued functioning of their businesses. However, if any excess cash held by us and our subsidiaries were needed to fund operations in the United States, Parent Company has the ability to cause us to make distributions and repatriate available funds.
Our ability to fund our working capital, capital expenditures and other obligations depends on our future operating performance and cash from operations. If our future operating performance does not meet our expectations or our plans materially change in an adverse manner or prove to be materially inaccurate, we may need additional financing. We may not be able to secure any such additional financing on terms favorable to us or at all.
We were in compliance with the covenants contained in our financing agreements as of September 30, 2016.
We frequently evaluate strategic opportunities both within and outside our existing lines of business. We expect from time to time to pursue acquisitions and may decide to dispose of certain businesses. These acquisitions or dispositions could be material.
On October 24, 2016, we sold our International outdoor business in Australia (Australia Outdoor), for cash proceeds of $203.9 million.

Cash Management Arrangement
iHeartCommunications provides cash management services to us and Parent Company. It is iHeartCommunications policy to permanently reinvest the earnings of its non-U.S. subsidiaries as these earnings are generally redeployed in those jurisdictions for operating needs and to maintain the continued function of such subsidiaries businesses. The amount of any cash that is distributed is determined on a basis mutually agreeable to us and iHeartCommunications, and not on a predetermined basis. Excess cash from our operations which is distributed to iHeartCommunications is applied against principal or accrued interest on the subordinated notes payable to subsidiaries of Parent Company, including Clear Channel C.V.
Senior Notes
As of September 30, 2016, we had $225.0 million aggregate principal amount outstanding of 8.75% Senior Notes due 2020.
The Senior Notes mature on December 15, 2020 and bear interest at a rate of 8.75% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of each year, beginning on June 15, 2016. The Senior Notes are guaranteed by certain of our existing and future subsidiaries. The Senior Notes are senior unsecured obligations that rank pari passu in right of payment to all of our unsubordinated indebtedness, and the guarantees of the Senior Notes are senior unsecured obligations that rank pari passu in right of payment to all unsubordinated indebtedness of the guarantors of the Senior Notes.
We may redeem the Senior Notes at our option, in whole or part, at any time prior to December 15, 2017, at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes redeemed, plus a make-whole premium, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date. We may redeem the Senior Notes, in whole or in part, on or after December 15, 2017, at the redemption prices set forth in the indenture plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date. At any time on or before December 15, 2017, we may elect to redeem up to 40% of the aggregate principal amount of the Senior Notes at a redemption price equal to 108.75% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date, with the net proceeds of one or more equity offerings.
The indenture governing the Senior Notes contains covenants that limit our ability and the ability of our restricted subsidiaries to, among other things: (i) pay dividends, redeem stock or make other distributions or investments; (ii) incur additional debt or issue certain preferred stock; (iii) transfer or sell assets; (iv) create liens on assets; (v) engage in certain transactions with affiliates; (vi) create restrictions on dividends or other payments by the restricted subsidiaries; and (vii) merge, consolidate or sell substantially all of our assets.
Related Party Subordinated Notes Payable
As of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, we had related party subordinated notes payable balances outstanding of $1.0 billion and $1.0 billion, respectively. The unsecured subordinated notes payable are owed to other wholly-owned subsidiaries of Parent Company and bear interest at 0.3%3.4% plus three-month EUR, GBP or USD LIBOR. In December 2015, we entered into an agreement with Clear Channel C.V., whereby we were discharged from our obligations under several related party subordinated notes payable with an aggregate principal amount of $909.5 million (including accrued interest of $29.6 million).
Subsidiary Credit Facilities
Certain of our subsidiaries are the primary borrowers under various credit and overdraft facilities with European banks. These facilities are denominated primarily in Euros. As of September 30, 2016, there were no outstanding under these facilities and there were approximately $3.6 million available for borrowings.

Commitments, Contingencies and Guarantees
We are currently involved in certain legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business and, as required, have accrued our estimate of the probable costs for resolution of those claims for which the occurrence of loss is probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. These estimates have been developed in consultation with counsel and are based upon an analysis of potential results, assuming a combination of litigation and settlement strategies. It is possible, however, that future results of operations for any particular period could be materially affected by changes in our assumptions or the effectiveness of our strategies related to these proceedings. See BusinessLegal Proceedings.
SEASONALITY
Typically, we experience our lowest financial performance in the first quarter of the calendar year, resulting in a loss from operations in that period. We typically experience our strongest performance in the second and fourth quarters of the calendar year. We expect this trend to continue in the future. Due to this seasonality and certain other factors, the results for the interim periods may not be indicative of results for the full year.
MARKET RISK
We are exposed to market risks arising from changes in market rates and prices, including movements in foreign currency exchange rates and inflation.
On June 23, 2016, the United Kingdom (the U.K.) held a referendum in which voters approved an exit from the European Union (the E.U.), commonly referred to as Brexit. We are currently headquartered in the U.K. and we transact business in many key European markets. The announcement of Brexit caused the British pound currency rate to weaken against the U.S. dollar. Further, Brexit may create global economic uncertainty, which may cause our customers to closely monitor their costs and reduce the amount they spend on advertising. Any of these effects of Brexit, among others, could adversely affect our business, financial condition, operating results and cash flows.
Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk
We have operations in several countries in Europe and in Australia, New Zealand and Singapore. Operations in these countries are measured in their local currencies, and our consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars. As a result, our financial results could be affected by factors such as changes in foreign currency exchange rates or weak economic conditions in the foreign markets in which we have operations. We believe we mitigate a small portion of our exposure to foreign currency fluctuations with a natural hedge through borrowings in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. We estimate a 10% increase in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to foreign currencies would have decreased our net loss for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 by $2.6 million and $8.7 million, respectively. We estimate a 10% decrease in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to foreign currencies during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 would have increased our net loss for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 by corresponding amounts.
This analysis does not consider the implications that such currency fluctuations could have on the overall economic activity that could exist in such an environment in the United States or the foreign countries or on the results of operations of these foreign entities.
Inflation
Inflation is a factor in the economies in which we do business and we continue to seek ways to mitigate its effect. Inflation has affected our performance in terms of higher costs for wages, salaries and equipment. Although the exact impact of inflation is indeterminable, we believe we have offset these higher costs by increasing the effective advertising rates of most of our outdoor display faces.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
The preparation of our financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates that are based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The result of these evaluations forms the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the reported amount of expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. Because future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty, actual results could differ from our assumptions and estimates, and such difference could be material. Our significant accounting policies are discussed in the notes to our consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 of Part II of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Management believes that the following accounting estimates are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results, and they require managements most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, resulting from the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. The following narrative describes these critical accounting estimates, the judgments and assumptions and the effect if actual results differ from these assumptions.
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired in business combinations. We test goodwill at interim dates if events or changes in circumstances indicate that goodwill might be impaired. The fair value of our reporting units is used to apply value to the net assets of each reporting unit. To the extent that the carrying amount of net assets would exceed the fair value, an impairment charge may be required to be recorded.
The discounted cash flow approach we use for valuing goodwill as part of the two-step impairment testing approach involves estimating future cash flows expected to be generated from the related assets, discounted to their present value using a risk-adjusted discount rate. Terminal values are also estimated and discounted to their present value.
On July 1, 2016, we performed our annual impairment test in accordance with ASC 350-30-35, resulting in a goodwill impairment charge of $7.3 million related to one country. In determining the fair value of our reporting units, we used the following assumptions:
| Expected cash flows underlying our business plans for the periods 2016 through 2020. Our cash flow assumptions are based on detailed, multi-year forecasts performed by each of our operating segments, and reflect the advertising outlook across our businesses. |
| Cash flows beyond 2020 are projected to grow at a perpetual growth rate, which we estimated at 3.0%. |
| In order to risk adjust the cash flow projections in determining fair value; we utilized a discount rate of approximately 8.0% to 11.5% for each of our reporting units. |
Based on our annual assessment using the assumptions described above, a hypothetical 10% reduction in the estimated fair value in each of our reporting units would not result in a material impairment condition.
