CONDENSED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Principles of Consolidation

These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Clear Channel Outdoor Holdings, Inc. (“CCOH”) and its subsidiaries (the “Company”), as well as entities in which the Company has a controlling financial interest or is the primary beneficiary. Noncontrolling interests are reported separately within equity. Intercompany transactions are eliminated in consolidation. All references in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to “we,” “us” and “our” refer to the Company.

Preparation of Interim Financial Statements

These consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with United States (“U.S.”) generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) applicable to interim financial reporting and, in the opinion of management, include all normal and recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the results of the interim periods shown. Due to seasonality and other factors, the results for the interim periods may not be indicative of results for the full year.

Pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), certain information and footnote disclosures required by GAAP for annual financial statements have been condensed or omitted from these interim financial statements. Accordingly, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Company’s 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K (“2025 Form 10-K”), filed with the SEC on February 26, 2026.

Use of Estimates

These consolidated financial statements reflect estimates and assumptions made by management that affect the reported amounts. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and other assumptions deemed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Discontinued Operations

As described in the 2025 Form 10-K, the Company’s business in Spain is classified as a discontinued operation, and it remains held for sale as of March 31, 2026. The Company’s former Europe-North segment and Latin American businesses, which were sold in 2025, are also presented as discontinued operations for the prior year period.

In accordance with GAAP, assets and liabilities of discontinued operations are presented separately in the Consolidated Balance Sheets, and results of discontinued operations are reported as a separate component of consolidated net income (loss) in the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) for all periods presented. Cash flows related to discontinued operations are included within the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows and are not separately presented. Refer to Note 2 for additional information on discontinued operations. All other notes to these consolidated financial statements present the results of continuing operations.

Pending Take-Private Merger

On February 9, 2026, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Madison Parent Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), and Madison Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Company is to be acquired by an investor consortium comprised of affiliates and/or certain investment funds advised by Mubadala Capital, in partnership with TWG Global. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will be merged with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent.

Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), each share of the Company’s common stock that is issued and outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than shares held by the Company as treasury stock, owned by Parent or any wholly owned subsidiary of the Company or Parent, including Merger Sub, or as to which appraisal rights have been properly exercised in accordance with Delaware law) will be automatically canceled, extinguished and converted into the right to receive cash in an amount equal to $2.43, without interest. Upon consummation of the Merger, the Company will become a privately held company, and its common stock will no longer be listed for trading on any public market.

The Merger is expected to close by the end of the third quarter of 2026, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including receipt of required stockholder and regulatory approvals, such as review by the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States. The applicable waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, expired on April 9, 2026.

CONDENSED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

On April 13, 2026, the Company filed a definitive proxy statement with the SEC in connection with the Merger, and a special meeting of stockholders is scheduled to be held on May 12, 2026 (subject to adjournment or postponement) to consider and vote on the adoption of the Merger Agreement.

Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, if the agreement is terminated under certain specified circumstances, including in connection with the Company entering into a definitive agreement relating to an alternative business combination transaction that constitutes a superior proposal (as defined in the Merger Agreement), the Company may be required to pay Parent a termination fee of $39.8 million. In addition, Parent may be required to pay the Company a termination fee of $92.9 million if the Merger Agreement is terminated under certain other circumstances.

In connection with the Merger, in April 2026, the Company completed consent solicitations with respect to its outstanding senior secured notes (the “Senior Secured Notes”), Term Loan Facility and Revolving Credit Facility, and entered into amendments to the related debt documents. These amendments are effective but will become operative only upon consummation of the Merger. Refer to Note 5 for additional information.

New Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted

Effective January 1, 2026, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update 2025-05, Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets, which provides a practical expedient for estimating expected credit losses on current accounts receivable and contract assets. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements or disclosures.

NOTE 2 – DISPOSITIONS AND DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

Dispositions

As described in the 2025 Form 10-K, the Company sold its former Europe-North segment and Latin American businesses in 2025. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company paid $3.9 million of transaction-related costs and final post-closing adjustments primarily associated with the Company’s Latin American business dispositions, which reduced net cash proceeds from those transactions. These payments are reflected within “Sales of businesses and/or assets, net of direct costs to sell and cash sold” in investing activities in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

In 2025, the Company also entered into a definitive agreement to sell its business in Spain for an aggregate purchase price of €115 million, subject to certain customary adjustments. The business remains classified as held for sale as of March 31, 2026, and the transaction is expected to close in the second quarter of 2026, upon satisfaction of required regulatory approvals.

NOTE 3 – SEGMENT DATA

The Company operates two reportable segments, which reflect how the Company is managed: America and Airports, with remaining operations in Singapore reported as “Other.” The America segment offers out-of-home advertising primarily on roadside billboards and street furniture in markets across the U.S., while the Airports segment offers out-of-home advertising at airports in the U.S. and the Caribbean.

Segment Adjusted EBITDA is the profitability metric reported to the Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”). It is calculated as revenue less direct operating expenses and selling, general and administrative expenses, excluding restructuring and other costs. Restructuring and other costs include costs associated with cost-saving initiatives such as severance, consulting and termination costs and other special costs.

The following table presents revenue, significant expenses, Segment Adjusted EBITDA and capital expenditures for each reportable segment for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025. Segment information for total assets is not presented as this information is not used by the CODM to measure segment performance or allocate resources between segments.

NOTE 4 – REVENUE

The Company generates revenue primarily from the sale of advertising on printed and digital out-of-home displays, with substantially all revenue from continuing operations generated in the U.S. Certain revenue transactions qualify as leases for accounting purposes, as they grant customers the right to control the use of the Company’s advertising displays for a specified period. Transactions that meet the definition of a lease are accounted for under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 842, while the remaining revenue transactions are accounted for as revenue from contracts with customers under ASC 606. The timing and pattern of revenue recognition are substantively the same under both standards.

The following table presents revenue from contracts with customers, revenue from leases and total revenue from continuing operations for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025:


(In thousands)	Three Months Ended March 31,
		2026		2025
Revenue
Revenue from contracts with customers(1)		$	318,133	$	208,212
Revenue from leases(1)		55,731		125,968
Total		$	373,864	$	334,180

(1)The year-over-year change in the mix of revenue from contracts with customers and leases is primarily due to changes in contract terms affecting whether arrangements provide customers the right to control the use of the Company’s advertising displays, resulting in more arrangements being accounted for under ASC 606 rather than ASC 842.

Refer to Note 3 for disaggregation of revenue by reportable segment, which reflects how the Company generates revenue across its businesses and evaluates operating performance.

The Company does not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations as the majority of its contracts with customers have original expected durations of one year or less. For contracts with an original expected duration of more than one year, the amount to be invoiced corresponds directly to the value that will be received by the customer under the contract.

NOTE 5 – LONG-TERM DEBT

Long-term debt outstanding as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 consisted of the following:

The aggregate market value of the Company’s debt, based on quoted market prices, was approximately $5.3 billion as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025. Under the fair value hierarchy established by ASC 820-10-35, these inputs are classified as Level 1.

As of March 31, 2026, the Company was in compliance with all covenants contained in its debt agreements.

Letters of Credit, Surety Bonds and Guarantees

The Company has letters of credit, surety bonds and bank guarantees related to various operational matters, including insurance, bid, concession and performance bonds.

As of March 31, 2026, the Company had $88.5 million of letters of credit outstanding under its Receivables-Based Credit Facility, resulting in $111.5 million of excess availability, and a $7.0 million of letter of credit outstanding under its Revolving Credit Facility, resulting in $93.0 million of remaining excess availability. Additionally, as of March 31, 2026, the Company had $44.5 million of surety bonds and $10.9 million of bank guarantees outstanding, a portion of which was supported by $2.6 million of cash collateral. A portion of these letters of credit and guarantees related to discontinued operations that were held for sale as of March 31, 2026. Refer to Note 2 for additional information.

Subsequent Event

In April 2026, the Company solicited consents from holders of its Senior Secured Notes and from the lenders under the credit agreement governing its Term Loan Facility and Revolving Credit Facility (the “Senior Secured Credit Agreement”) to approve certain amendments to the documents governing such indebtedness. Following receipt of the requisite consents, the Company entered into supplemental indentures with respect to the Senior Secured Notes and an amendment to the Senior Secured Credit Agreement to provide that the Merger will not constitute a change of control under such documents and to add or amend certain related defined terms. These supplemental indentures and the amendment are effective but will become operative only upon consummation of the Merger and will cease to be effective if the Merger is not completed.

NOTE 6 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Legal Proceedings

The Company and its subsidiaries are involved in certain legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. As required, the Company has accrued estimates for the probable costs of resolving those claims for which loss is deemed probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. These estimates are developed in consultation with the Company’s counsel and are based on an analysis of potential outcomes, considering a combination of litigation and settlement strategies. It is possible, however, that results of operations for any particular period could be materially affected by changes in the Company’s assumptions or the effectiveness of its strategies related to these proceedings. Due to the inherent uncertainty of litigation, there can be no assurance that the resolution of any particular claim or proceeding will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

Although the Company is involved in a variety of legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business, its litigation generally arises in the following contexts: commercial disputes, employment and benefits-related claims, land use and zoning disputes, governmental fines, intellectual property claims, personal injury claims and tax disputes.

NOTE 7 – INCOME TAXES

Income Tax Benefit (Expense) Attributable to Continuing Operations

The Company’s income tax benefit (expense) attributable to continuing operations for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 consisted of the following:


(In thousands)	Three Months Ended March 31,
		2026		2025
Current income tax expense attributable to continuing operations		$	(1,134)	$	(1,216)
Deferred income tax benefit attributable to continuing operations		9,961		36
Income tax benefit (expense) attributable to continuing operations		$	8,827	$	(1,180)

The effective tax rates for continuing operations for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 were 15.1% and (2.2)%, respectively. The effective tax rates were primarily driven by changes in the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets related to interest expense carryforwards.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations (“MD&A”) should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes included in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the 2025 Form 10-K. All references in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to “the Company,” “we,” “us” and “our” refer to Clear Channel Outdoor Holdings, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries.

The MD&A is organized as follows:

•Overview – Discussion of the nature, key developments and trends of our business, providing context for the remainder of this MD&A.

•Results of Operations – Analysis of financial performance at both the consolidated and segment levels.

•Liquidity and Capital Resources – Discussion of short- and long-term liquidity, including material cash requirements and the anticipated sources of funds needed to meet these requirements.

This discussion contains forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties, and actual results may differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements. See “Cautionary Statement Concerning Forward-Looking Statements” at the end of this MD&A.

OVERVIEW

Description of Our Business, Segments and Discontinued Operations

We generate revenue by selling advertising on out-of-home displays we own or operate, including roadside billboards, street furniture and airport displays, in both digital and printed formats.

We operate two reportable segments: America, which includes our U.S. roadside billboard and street furniture advertising operations, and Airports, which includes our U.S. and Caribbean airport advertising operations. Our remaining operations in Singapore are reported as “Other.”

Substantially all of our historical international operations have been exited or, in the case of our operations in Spain, are classified as held for sale, and are reported as discontinued operations for all periods presented.

Held-for-Sale Operations

In 2025, we entered into a definitive agreement to sell our business in Spain for an aggregate purchase price of €115 million, subject to certain customary adjustments. The transaction is expected to close in the second quarter of 2026, upon satisfaction of required regulatory approvals. We intend to use the anticipated net proceeds from the sale, after payment of transaction-related fees and expenses, to further reduce our outstanding debt, subject to the outcome of the Merger described below.

Pending Take-Private Merger

On February 9, 2026, we entered into the Merger Agreement with Parent and Merger Sub, pursuant to which the Company is to be acquired by an investor consortium comprised of affiliates and/or certain investment funds advised by Mubadala Capital, in partnership with TWG Global. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, the consortium will acquire all outstanding shares of our common stock (subject to certain exceptions), with our common stockholders receiving $2.43 per share in cash. The Merger is expected to close by the end of the third quarter of 2026, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including receipt of required stockholder and regulatory approvals. If the Merger is consummated, our common stock will no longer be listed for trading on any public market. Refer to Note 1 to our Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information regarding the Merger.

There can be no assurance that all required closing conditions will be satisfied or that the Merger will be completed on the expected timeline or at all. Until the Merger is consummated or the Merger Agreement is terminated, we are subject to certain restrictions on the conduct of our business, which may limit our ability to pursue certain strategic initiatives, capital allocation decisions or other actions that we might otherwise undertake.

The Merger also introduces broader uncertainty regarding our future operations, strategic direction and capital structure. While we continue to operate the business in the ordinary course, the outcome and timing of the Merger may affect our financial condition, liquidity planning and strategic priorities. For a more complete discussion of the risks and uncertainties associated with the Merger, refer to Item 1A of the 2025 Form 10-K.

Table of Contents

Macroeconomic Trends, Uncertainties and Seasonality

Macroeconomic conditions influence our operating results and financial condition. Inflation remains above the U.S. Federal Reserve’s long-term target and has exhibited increased volatility in recent periods, including as a result of fluctuations in energy prices and broader geopolitical developments. While interest rates declined in 2025, they remain above recent historical averages and continue to be subject to market volatility, resulting in elevated borrowing costs that impact our cost of debt and overall financing environment.

We continue to monitor developments related to global trade and tariff policies. Recent policy actions and related legal and regulatory developments, as well as ongoing geopolitical tensions, including in the Middle East, have contributed to an evolving trade and supply chain environment. While we have not experienced a material impact to date, these dynamics have resulted in isolated cost pressures for certain materials and components used in our operations, and future changes could affect our operating costs, supply chain arrangements and pricing.

Advertising demand is sensitive to broader economic conditions, as spending on out-of-home advertising generally correlates with overall economic activity, including changes in gross domestic product. While macroeconomic conditions in early 2026 have become more uncertain, demand across our portfolio has remained relatively resilient. However, continued economic uncertainty or a slowdown in economic activity could adversely impact advertiser spending in future periods.

Due to the seasonality of our business, interim results are not necessarily indicative of full-year performance. Historically, revenue and Segment Adjusted EBITDA are lowest in the first quarter and strongest in the fourth quarter, consistent with seasonal advertising trends.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion of our results of operations focuses on continuing operations and is presented on both a consolidated and segment basis.

•Our operating segment profit measure is Segment Adjusted EBITDA, which is calculated as revenue less direct operating expenses and selling, general and administrative expenses, excluding restructuring and other costs. Restructuring and other costs are defined as costs associated with cost-saving initiatives such as severance, consulting and termination costs and other special costs.

•Corporate expenses, depreciation and amortization, other operating income and expense, non-operating income and expenses, and income taxes are managed on a total company basis and, accordingly, are discussed only as part of our consolidated results of continuing operations.

•Results of discontinued operations are presented and discussed separately below.

Consolidated Revenue

Consolidated revenue increased by $39.7 million, or 11.9%, for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the same period in 2025. The increase was driven by stronger performance in both the America and Airports segments, led by significant growth in the San Francisco Bay Area, reflecting strong demand from technology advertisers and the impact of Super Bowl LX.

Revenue growth was driven by both print and digital advertising revenue. The table below provides information on consolidated digital revenue.

Consolidated SG&A expenses increased by $2.9 million, or 4.6%, for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the same period in 2025. The increase was primarily driven by higher employee compensation and credit loss expense, partially offset by lower payment processing fees.

Corporate Expenses

Corporate expenses increased by $11.0 million, or 55.8%, for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the same period in 2025. The increase was primarily driven by the non-recurrence of $9.9 million of insurance proceeds recognized in the prior-year period related to the ongoing process to recover certain amounts previously incurred in connection with a resolved legal matter. These proceeds are reflected in “Restructuring and other costs (reversals), net” in the table below. The remaining increase primarily reflects higher employee compensation related to insurance benefits.

The table below provides additional information on certain drivers of corporate expenses.

(1)Excludes share-based compensation expense for employees of discontinued operations for all periods presented.

(2)Percentage changes that are not meaningful have been designated as “NM.”

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization decreased by $1.5 million, or 3.4%, for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the same period in 2025. The decrease was primarily driven by higher depreciation expense in the prior-year period related to certain assets that have since become fully depreciated.

Other Operating Expense (Income), Net

Other operating expense, net, was $15.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to other operating income, net, of $5.8 million for the same period in 2025. The change was primarily driven by transaction costs incurred in the current-year period related to the Merger and lower net gains on the disposition of operating assets compared to the prior-year period. Refer to Note 11 to our Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information.

Interest Expense, Net

Interest expense, net, decreased by $0.9 million during the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the same period in 2025. The decrease was primarily driven by lower interest expense associated with reduced outstanding debt balances following the repurchase of a portion of our senior unsecured notes in 2025, partially offset by higher interest expense associated with the August 2025 senior secured notes refinancing.

America Revenue

America revenue increased by $24.3 million, or 9.6%, for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the same period in 2025. The increase was driven by stronger performance across a broad base of markets, led by a significant increase in the San Francisco/Bay Area market, which reflected strong demand from technology advertisers and the impact of Super Bowl LX.

By format, revenue growth was primarily driven by print and digital billboard products. The table below provides additional information on America digital revenue, which increased due to higher advertiser demand and, to a lesser extent, new inventory.

America SG&A expenses increased by $1.8 million, or 3.4%, for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the same period in 2025. The increase was primarily driven by higher employee compensation, reflecting increased incentive-based pay, and higher credit loss expense, largely related to a specific reserve. This was partially offset by lower payment processing fees.

Airports Revenue

Airports revenue increased by $15.2 million, or 19.1%, for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the same period in 2025. The increase was primarily driven by stronger performance at San Francisco International Airport, reflecting the impact of Super Bowl LX, higher demand from technology advertisers and increased conference activity.

Airports Direct Operating Expenses

Airports direct operating expenses increased by $5.7 million, or 10.1%, for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the same period in 2025. The increase was primarily driven by higher site lease expense, reflecting higher minimum guaranteed payments under certain airport contracts, including increases based on prior-period performance, and the renewal contract with the Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority.

Airports SG&A Expenses

Airports SG&A expenses increased by $1.0 million, or 10.2%, for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the same period in 2025. The increase reflects higher credit loss expense and employee compensation, including increased incentive-based pay.

Income from Discontinued Operations

Income from discontinued operations was $1.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $118.5 million in the same period in 2025. The prior-year income was primarily driven by a $139.6 million gain from the sale of our former Europe-North segment and Latin American businesses.

The current-period results reflect significantly lower activity following the disposition of most of our international businesses in 2025, including lower revenue, operating expenses and interest expense. The prior-year period also included a loss on debt extinguishment and foreign currency losses on intercompany notes, which did not recur in the current-year period.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Liquidity Analysis

Short-Term Liquidity

Our primary cash requirements include working capital to support business operations, capital expenditures and debt service obligations. We typically fund these needs through cash on hand, cash generated from operations and, when necessary, borrowings under our credit facilities. In addition, we have benefited from cash proceeds from prior-year international business sales, a portion of which was used to reduce outstanding debt. We believe our sources of liquidity will be sufficient to meet our cash requirements for at least the next 12 months.

Long-Term Liquidity

Our long-term cash requirements depend on a variety of factors, including business growth, investments in digital conversions and new technologies, the timing and completion of the Merger, costs related to the Merger, and the completion of the sale of our business in Spain. We also have long-term cash requirements related to the repayment of outstanding debt, which matures between 2028 and 2033.

Generally, we may repay indebtedness as it matures, through refinancing transactions or, from time to time, opportunistic repurchases of outstanding debt securities through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or other means. We conducted such repurchases in 2025. Any future repurchase activity will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity needs, contractual restrictions and the outcome of the Merger. Such repurchases could materially impact our liquidity, results of operations or leverage ratios and, as a result, our ability to comply with the covenants in our debt agreements. The amounts involved in any such transactions may be material.

We believe that our sources of liquidity will be adequate to meet our long-term cash requirements. However, our ability to meet these requirements through cash from operations will depend on our future operating results and financial performance, which are subject to uncertainty and may be affected by factors beyond our control, including macroeconomic conditions, interest rates, inflation, global trade policies, geopolitical developments, and the timing and completion of the Merger. In addition, our significant interest payment obligations reduce our financial flexibility, increase our sensitivity to changes in operating performance and economic conditions, and reduce our liquidity over time.

In prior periods, we have explored financing alternatives and undertaken transactions to improve our liquidity, including additional financing from banks or other lenders, public or private debt or equity offerings, and strategic partnerships, as well as refinancing our indebtedness. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, our ability to pursue such actions is currently limited. If the Merger is not consummated, we may seek to pursue similar transactions in the future. There can be no assurance that such financing or liquidity-generating transactions, including refinancing, will be available in sufficient amounts, at reasonable interest rates, on acceptable terms, or at all, due to market conditions, our financial condition or other factors beyond our control. In addition, the terms of our debt agreements may limit our ability to incur additional indebtedness. If we are unable to generate sufficient cash from operations or secure supplemental liquidity as needed, our financial condition and ability to meet our obligations could be adversely affected.

Cash Requirements

Working Capital Needs

Site lease payments represent our most significant recurring operating cash requirement and consist of payments for land or space used by our advertising displays. These arrangements include both fixed minimum payments and revenue-sharing components under lease and non-lease contracts. For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, site lease expense for continuing operations was $149.2 million and $139.6 million, respectively, and is included in direct operating expenses in our Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss). Site lease expense includes the effects of straight-line rent and other non-cash adjustments and, as a result, may differ from cash payments made during the period. We expect to fund our site lease and other working capital obligations primarily through cash generated from operations.

Table of Contents

Capital Expenditures

Our capital expenditures primarily relate to the construction, enhancement and maintenance of our out-of-home advertising displays, including continued investment in digital displays as part of our long-term strategy to digitize our network. We expect to fund our capital expenditures primarily through cash generated from operations.

The following table summarizes capital expenditures for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025:


(In thousands)	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2026		2025
America	$	7,916	$	9,819
Airports	3,734		2,234
Other	31		12
Corporate	877		1,166
Capital expenditures for continuing operations(1)	12,558		13,231
Capital expenditures for discontinued operations(2)	3,443		12,295
Total capital expenditures	$	16,001	$	25,526

(1)As of March 31, 2026 and 2025, we had accrued but unpaid capital expenditures for continuing operations of $6.2 million and $3.4 million, respectively.

(2)Capital expenditures for discontinued operations decreased following the sales of our former Europe-North segment and Latin American businesses in 2025.

Debt Service Obligations

A significant portion of our cash requirements relates to debt service obligations. During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, we paid cash interest of $93.9 million and $89.0 million, respectively. The increase in 2026 primarily reflects the impact of the August 2025 senior secured notes refinancing, including the timing of interest payments, as the first semi-annual interest payments on the 7.125% and 7.500% Senior Secured Notes were made during the current-year period, and higher interest expense associated with the new debt. This was partially offset by lower interest payments resulting from the repayment of the $375.0 million CCIBV Term Loan Facility on March 31, 2025.

Based on our outstanding indebtedness as of March 31, 2026, and assuming no debt prepayments, repurchases, refinancings or issuances, we expect to pay approximately $308 million of cash interest for the remainder of 2026 and approximately $391 million in 2027. These estimates reflect our capital structure as of March 31, 2026 and do not give effect to any potential financing transactions that may occur in connection with or following the consummation of the Merger.

Our next significant debt maturities occur in 2028, when $899.3 million aggregate principal amount of 7.750% Senior Notes and $425.0 million under our Term Loan Facility become due. For additional details on our outstanding long-term debt, refer to Note 5 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Sources of Capital and Liquidity

Cash On Hand

As of March 31, 2026, we had $195.5 million of cash and cash equivalents, including $13.0 million held by discontinued operations in Spain. Of the remaining balance, $6.2 million was held by our continuing operations subsidiaries outside the U.S. At present, excess cash held by our foreign subsidiaries could be repatriated with minimal U.S. tax consequences, and dividend distributions from international subsidiaries are not expected to result in a U.S. federal income tax liability.

Cash Flow from Operations

During the three months ended March 31, 2026, net cash provided by operating activities was $3.2 million, compared to $14.9 million during the same period in 2025. The decrease was primarily driven by $10.6 million of transaction costs paid in the current-year period related to the Merger, the non-recurrence of $9.9 million in insurance proceeds received in the prior-year period related to the ongoing process to recover certain amounts previously incurred in connection with a resolved legal matter, and higher cash interest payments of $4.9 million, as discussed above. These drivers were partially offset by stronger operating performance across both the America and Airports segments, as well as lower cash payments for income taxes of $4.3 million following the disposition of most of our international businesses.

Table of Contents

Dispositions

During the three months ended March 31, 2026, we paid $3.9 million for transaction-related costs and final post-closing adjustments primarily associated with our Latin American business dispositions, partially offset by $2.7 million of cash proceeds from asset dispositions.

During the three months ended March 31, 2025, we received net cash proceeds of $609.3 million from the sale of our former Europe-North segment and certain Latin American businesses. A portion of these proceeds was used to fully prepay the $375.0 million CCIBV Term Loan Facility, with the remainder used to improve liquidity and financial flexibility, as permitted under our debt agreements. We also received $8.0 million of cash proceeds from asset dispositions.

In 2025, we entered into a definitive agreement to sell our business in Spain for an aggregate purchase price of €115 million, subject to certain customary adjustments. The transaction is expected to close in the second quarter of 2026, upon satisfaction of regulatory approvals. We expect to use the anticipated net proceeds, after payment of transaction-related fees and expenses, to further reduce our outstanding debt, subject to the outcome of the Merger.

Credit Facilities

We have access to a Revolving Credit Facility and a Receivables-Based Credit Facility, each of which includes sub-facilities for letters of credit and short-term borrowings and matures on June 12, 2030. As of March 31, 2026, we had no borrowings outstanding and significant available capacity under our credit facilities.

The following table presents borrowing limits, letters of credit outstanding and excess availability under these credit facilities as of March 31, 2026:


(in millions)	Revolving Credit Facility		Receivables-Based Credit Facility		Total Credit Facilities
Borrowing limit(1)	$	100.0	$	200.0	$	300.0
Borrowings outstanding	—		—		—
Letters of credit outstanding(2)	7.0		88.5		95.5
Excess availability	$	93.0	$	111.5	$	204.5

(1)The Revolving Credit Facility commitment is $100.0 million, and the maximum commitment under the Receivables-Based Credit Facility is $200.0 million (capped by a borrowing base that fluctuates based on our accounts receivable balance, as calculated under the Receivables-Based Credit Agreement).

(2)As of March 31, 2026, the letter of credit outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility relates to our business in Spain.

Debt Covenants and Other Debt Provisions

Our debt agreements contain covenants as described in the 2025 Form 10-K. As of March 31, 2026, we were in compliance with all applicable covenants.

The Senior Secured Credit Agreement includes a springing financial covenant that applies only if the Revolving Credit Facility has an outstanding balance or if undrawn letters of credit under that facility exceed $10 million. If triggered, the covenant requires that we maintain a first lien net leverage ratio of less than 7.10 to 1.00. As of March 31, 2026, these conditions were not met and the covenant was not in effect. Refer to the “Credit Facilities” section above for additional information on borrowings and excess availability as of March 31, 2026.

In connection with the Merger, in April 2026, we amended the indentures governing our Senior Secured Notes and the Senior Secured Credit Agreement to provide that the Merger will not constitute a change of control under such documents and to add or amend certain related defined terms. These amendments are effective but will become operative only upon consummation of the Merger and will cease to be effective if the Merger is not completed. For additional information, refer to Note 5 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

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 revenue, expenses, assets and liabilities, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. These estimates are based on historical experience and other assumptions believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates, and such differences could be material.

For a discussion of our critical accounting estimates — those estimates that involve significant judgment and are most important to understanding our financial statements — refer to Item 7 of the 2025 Form 10-K. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, there have been no material changes to our critical accounting estimates, management’s judgments and assumptions, or the potential effects if actual results differ from these assumptions.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are exposed to market risks from changes in interest rates and inflation, and future fluctuations in these factors could affect our financial results. There have been no material changes in our market risk disclosures from those provided in Item 7A of the 2025 Form 10-K.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

As required by Rule 13a-15(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure, and is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the SEC. Based on this evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that, as of March 31, 2026, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2026 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
