Baton Rouge, LA – November 5, 2020 - Lamar Advertising Company (Nasdaq: LAMR), a leading owner and operator of outdoor advertising and logo sign displays, announces the Company’s operating results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2020.

“The rebound in our advertising revenue continued through the third quarter, buoyed by spending from local businesses and election-year political dollars.

See “Reconciliation of Reported Basis to Acquisition-Adjusted Results”, which provides reconciliations to GAAP for acquisition-adjusted measures.

Nine Months Results

Lamar reported net revenues of $1.140 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 versus $1.291 billion for the same period in 2019, an 11.7% decrease. Operating income for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $268.9 million as compared to $376.3 million for the same period in 2019. Lamar recognized net income of $134.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 as compared to net income of $269.4 million for the same period in 2019. Net income per diluted share decreased to $1.33 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 as compared to $2.69 for the same period in 2019. In addition, adjusted EBITDA for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $463.7 million versus $569.2 million for the same period in 2019, an 18.5% decrease.

Cash flow provided by operating activities decreased to $361.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, as compared to $408.0 million in the same period in 2019. Free cash flow for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 decreased 11.7% to $312.4 million as compared to $353.9 million for the same period in 2019.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, FFO was $309.6 million versus $423.8 million for the same period in 2019, a 26.9% decrease. AFFO for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $342.7 million compared to $416.0 million for the same period in 2019, a 17.6% decrease. Diluted AFFO per share decreased to $3.40 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, as compared to $4.15 in the same period in 2019, a decrease of 18.1%.

Liquidity

As of September 30, 2020, Lamar had $770.8 million in total liquidity that consisted of $666.9 million available for borrowing under its revolving senior credit facility, $35.3 million available under the Accounts Receivable Securitization Program and approximately $68.6 million in cash and cash equivalents. There was $70.0 million and $122.5 million in borrowings outstanding under each of the Company’s revolving credit facility and Accounts Receivable Securitization Program as of September 30, 2020, respectively.

Recent Developments and COVID-19 Update

During the three months ended September 30, 2020 Lamar Media redeemed all of its outstanding $535.0 million 5% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2023. The redemption was funded through a combination of cash on hand, borrowings under our revolving credit facility, borrowings under our Accounts Receivable Securitization Program and proceeds received from the additional 4% Senior Notes issued August 17, 2020. The above transactions resulted in a net neutral total debt outstanding position for the Company.

Lamar continues to actively monitor the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business, employees and the business of our advertisers. In response to the virus’s effect on the overall economy and decreased demand for outdoor advertising we have taken measures to reduce our operating costs and increase our liquidity. During the three months ended September 30, 2020, we saw an increase in revenues and customer activity across all divisions compared to the three months ended June 30, 2020, which has continued into the fourth quarter of 2020.

As we continue to actively monitor the situation, we may take further actions to alter our business operations as may be required by federal, state or local authorities, or that we determine are in the best interest of our employees, customers, partners and shareholders.

Revised Guidance

We are updating our revised 2020 guidance issued in August 2020 to reflect our expected recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic during the fourth quarter 2020. We now expect net income per diluted share for fiscal year 2020 to be between $1.99 and $2.16, with diluted AFFO per share between $4.65 and $4.85. See “Supplemental Schedules and Unaudited Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Measures” for a reconciliation to GAAP.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company has presented the following measures that are not measures of performance under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”): adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“adjusted EBITDA”), free cash flow, funds from operations (“FFO”), adjusted funds from operations (“AFFO”), diluted AFFO per share, outdoor operating income, acquisition-adjusted results and acquisition-adjusted consolidated expense. Our management reviews our performance by focusing on these key performance indicators not prepared in conformity with GAAP. We believe these non-GAAP performance indicators are meaningful supplemental measures of our operating performance and should not be considered in isolation of, or as a substitute for their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.

Our Non-GAAP financial measures are determined as follows:

We define adjusted EBITDA as net income before income tax expense (benefit), interest expense (income), loss<br>(gain) on extinguishment of debt and investments, stock-based compensation, depreciation and amortization, gain or loss on disposition of assets and investments, capitalized contract fulfillment costs, net and the impact of adopting FASB Accounting<br>Standard Update No. 2016-02 Codified as ASC 842, Leases.
Adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as adjusted EBITDA divided by net revenues.
--- ---
Free cash flow is defined as adjusted EBITDA less interest, net of interest income and amortization of deferred<br>financing costs, current taxes, preferred stock dividends and total capital expenditures.
--- ---
We use the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts definition of FFO, which is defined as net<br>income before gains or losses from the sale or disposal of real estate assets and investments and real estate related depreciation and amortization and including adjustments to eliminate unconsolidated affiliates and<br>non-controlling interest.
--- ---
We define AFFO as FFO before (i) straight-line income and expense; (ii) impact of ASC 842<br>adoption; (iii) capitalized contract fulfillment costs, net (iv) stock-based compensation expense; (v) non-cash portion of tax provision;<br>(vi) non-real estate related depreciation and amortization; (vii) amortization of deferred financing costs; (viii) loss on extinguishment of debt;<br>(ix) non-recurring infrequent or unusual losses (gains); (x) less maintenance capital expenditures; and (xi) an adjustment for unconsolidated affiliates and<br>non-controlling interest.
--- ---
Diluted AFFO per share is defined as AFFO divided by weighted average diluted common shares outstanding.<br>
--- ---
Outdoor operating income is defined as operating income before corporate expenses, stock-based compensation,<br>depreciation and amortization and loss (gain) on disposition of assets.
--- ---

3

Acquisition-adjusted results adjusts our net revenue, direct and general and administrative expenses, outdoor<br>operating income, corporate expense and EBITDA for the prior period by adding to, or subtracting from, the corresponding revenue or expense generated by the acquired or divested assets before our acquisition or divestiture of these assets for the<br>same time frame that those assets were owned in the current period. In calculating acquisition-adjusted results, therefore, we include revenue and expenses generated by assets that we did not own in the prior period but acquired in the current<br>period. We refer to the amount of pre-acquisition revenue and expense generated by or subtracted from the acquired assets during the prior period that corresponds with the current period in which we owned the<br>assets (to the extent within the period to which this report relates) as “acquisition-adjusted results”.
Acquisition-adjusted consolidated expense adjusts our total operating expense to remove the impact of stock-based<br>compensation, depreciation and amortization, capitalized contract fulfillment costs, net and loss (gain) on disposition of assets and investments. The prior period is also adjusted for the impact of adopting FASB Accounting Standard Update No. 2016-02 Codified as ASC 842, Leases and to include the expense generated by the acquired or divested assets before our acquisition or divestiture of such assets for the same time frame that those<br>assets were owned in the current period.
--- ---

Adjusted EBITDA, FFO, AFFO, diluted AFFO per share, outdoor operating income, acquisition-adjusted results and acquisition-adjusted consolidated expense are not intended to replace other performance measures determined in accordance with GAAP. Free cash flow, FFO and AFFO do not represent cash flows from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and, therefore, these measures should not be considered indicative of cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity or of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to make cash distributions. Adjusted EBITDA, free cash flow, FFO, AFFO, diluted AFFO per share, outdoor operating income, acquisition-adjusted results and acquisition-adjusted consolidated expense are presented as we believe each is a useful indicator of our current operating performance. Specifically, we believe that these metrics are useful to an investor in evaluating our operating performance because (1) each is a key measure used by our management team for purposes of decision making and for evaluating our core operating results; (2) adjusted EBITDA is widely used in the industry to measure operating performance as it excludes the impact of depreciation and amortization, which may vary significantly among companies, depending upon accounting methods and useful lives, particularly where acquisitions and non-operating factors are involved; (3) adjusted EBITDA, FFO, AFFO, diluted AFFO per share and acquisition-adjusted consolidated expense each provides investors with a meaningful measure for evaluating our period-over-period operating performance by eliminating items that are not operational in nature and reflect the impact on operations from trends in occupancy rates, operating costs, general and administrative expenses and interest costs; (4) acquisition-adjusted results is a supplement to enable investors to compare period-over-period results on a more consistent basis without the effects of acquisitions and divestitures, which reflects our core performance and organic growth (if any) during the period in which the assets were owned and managed by us; (5) free cash flow is an indicator of our ability to service debt and generate cash for acquisitions and other strategic investments; (6) outdoor operating income provides investors a measurement of our core results without the impact of fluctuations in stock-based compensation, depreciation and amortization and corporate expenses; and (7) each of our Non-GAAP measures provides investors with a measure for comparing our results of operations to those of other companies.

Our measurement of adjusted EBITDA, FFO, AFFO, diluted AFFO per share, outdoor operating income, acquisition-adjusted results and acquisition-adjusted consolidated expense may not, however, be fully comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. Reconciliations of adjusted EBITDA, FFO, AFFO, diluted AFFO per share, outdoor operating income, acquisition-adjusted results and acquisition-adjusted consolidated expense to the most directly comparable GAAP measures have been included herein.
