Good morning, and welcome to Townsquare Media's Third Quarter 2022 Conference Call. As a reminder, today's call is being recorded. And your participation implies consent to do such recording. At this time, all participants are in listen-only mode. A brief question and answer session will follow the formal presentation. With that, I would like to introduce the first speaker for today's call, Claire Yenicay, Executive Vice President.

Thank you, operator, and good morning to everyone. Thank you for joining us today for Townsquare's third quarter financial update. With me on the call today are Bill Wilson, our CEO; and Stuart Rosenstein, our CFO and Executive Vice President. Please note that during this call we may make statements that provide information other than historical information, including statements relating to the company's future expectations, plans and prospects. These statements are considered forward-looking statements under the safe harbor provision of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from these statements.

Such non-GAAP financial measures should be used in conjunction with all the information contained in the quarterly, year-end and current reports available on our website. I'd also encourage all participants to go to our corporate website and download our investor presentation, as Bill will reference some of those slides during our discussion this morning. At this time, I would like to turn the call over to Bill Wilson.

Thank you, Claire, and thank you all for joining us this morning. Without question, we all continue to live in unprecedented times, from the persistence of COVID-19 and the war in Eastern Europe to continued macroeconomic uncertainty headwinds and resulting challenges to media companies. However, because of our differentiated and unique position as a digital-first local media company focused exclusively on local markets outside of the top 50 cities, Townsquare achieved our Q3 guidance and set an all-time Q3 revenue and Q3 profit record and, in turn, drove strong cash flow growth in the third quarter. And we expect that our strategy will enable us to continue to deliver positive results in the coming quarters. Simply put, our business model allows us to weather economic downturns when they do occur, better than most. Approximately 50% of our revenue and 50% of our profits now come from digital solutions, which historically performed better during an economic downturn than broadcast advertising. Approximately 40% of that digital revenue is recurring digital subscription revenue not tied to advertising trends. Even during the worst of COVID, Townsquare Interactive delivered revenue and profit growth. Additionally, because we are not in the large top 50 markets, the majority, over 90% of our advertising revenue is local advertising, which historically is less volatile than national advertising, particularly during an economic downturn. For example, national broadcast advertising revenue continued to be extremely weak in the third quarter, with revenue down in the mid-teens compared to prior year. That decline doesn't hurt us as much as others because national advertising now only accounts for approximately 5% of our total revenue. Overall, we believe that we are very well positioned to perform during a downturn or a recession, no matter the duration and severity, a belief which is supported by our 2020 performance during the worst of COVID, as well as our rebound to record profits in 2021. To demonstrate that point, even in the current environment of macroeconomic uncertainty, the Townsquare team continues to consistently deliver strong, record-setting top line and bottom line results across all business segments. I am especially pleased to share our third quarter results with you this morning. To start, our net revenue overall was up a very strong 8.4%, to approximately $121 million, and up 7.5%, excluding political. And our adjusted EBITDA increased a strong 6% to approximately $31 million. There are two really important takeaways here that I want to share with you: one, third quarter revenue and EBITDA were both well above 2019 levels; and two, both net revenue and adjusted EBITDA represented the highest Q3 revenue and highest Q3 adjusted EBITDA that Townsquare has ever achieved. Townsquare achieved these results because, as I noted before, we have transformed into a highly differentiated digital-first local media company focused on communities outside the top 50 markets. As I highlighted on slide 11, over 50% of our revenue is digital, 2.5 times the industry average, and our digital business continues to deliver strong growth, up 17% in Q3 over prior year. The only area of disappointment in Q3, which continued into Q4, is our political advertising results. Unlike prior political cycles, our market footprint did not line up well this year with key political races. We do not own radio stations in markets where the most contested races are being held in 2022, like Georgia, Pennsylvania, Nevada, Ohio and Wisconsin, and therefore, had not seen the typical political spend that we've received in prior years and that we expected this year. In the third quarter, political revenue of $1.6 million was well below 2018 levels by 31% and below 2020 levels by 64%. Year-to-date through September, political revenue of $3.5 million is nearly 20% below 2018 levels and 47% below 2020 levels. Since Election Day has passed, we now have a fairly clear picture of Q4's political revenue, and it also is significantly below our initial expectations, as well as 2018 and 2020 levels. Given our performance in prior political cycles, especially 2018 and 2020, as well as the political dollars raised for this election in 2022, we expected between $12 million and $13 million of political revenue this year, but we now believe political will finish just around $7 million. Stu will provide more detail in our guidance discussion shortly, but this $5 million to $6 million decrease in political revenue is a meaningful factor in our current Q4 and, therefore, full year outlook. Importantly, we believe that this is not indicative of future political cycles, and we expect our 2024 political revenue to return to historic levels. It is also important to note that the broadcast radio industry is seeing strength in political this year. So it is not a radio-specific issue, but rather, specific to our local markets and the lack of highly contested races. More importantly, political has nothing to do with the success of our underlying solid core digital businesses. As we have detailed in the past, Townsquare's current and future growth engine is digital, which, as I highlighted earlier, delivered strong, profitable double-digit revenue growth in the third quarter. Q3 digital revenue increased 17% year-over-year, and Q3 digital profit increased 7% year-over-year, with a Q3 digital profit margin of 29%. In total, 50% of our September year-to-date revenue and 49% of our September year-to-date profit came from our digital businesses. As outlined on slide six of our investor presentation, our digital revenue comes from two distinct segments: Townsquare Ignite, our digital advertising solutions; and Townsquare Interactive, our subscription digital marketing solutions. Third quarter digital advertising net revenue increased 21% year-over-year, and third quarter digital marketing solutions net revenue increased 10% year-over-year. And importantly, both digital segments have a profit margin close to 30% in 2022. And as we highlighted previously, we expect that even with additional investments to fuel our digital growth engines the margins will remain in the high 20s. In total, we expect and we are reaffirming that our digital revenue will grow from $225 million of digital revenue on a trailing 12-month basis as of September 30 to a minimum of $275 million of digital revenue by 2024. Our digital businesses significantly differentiate us from other local media companies, particularly those that we compete with outside of the top 50 markets, and it was the primary reason we were able to recover so quickly from the COVID recession and not only return to 2019 levels but also quickly surpass those levels as well. Townsquare's adjusted EBITDA returned to growth by the end of 2020, hit an all-time high in 2021, and we're on track to deliver yet another record-setting profit level in 2022, even with the national macroeconomic uncertainty headlines. Although Townsquare has transformed into a digital-first local media company with digital as our growth driver, we do love our local broadcast business. Our broadcast advertising revenue grew slightly in Q3, increasing 3% year-over-year or 2% excluding political. However, as we continually note, our expectation is not to grow our broadcast business, but to keep it relatively stable. We view local radio as an extremely valuable asset with significant and attractive cash flow properties, unparalleled consumer reach and an important and trusted local connection to our audience and communities and, thus, a key component of our multi-platform diverse local media business. We also view radio as a mature cash cow business and, thus, not a growth driver. Our growth driver has been and will continue to be digital. We continue to focus on maintaining our profitable cash cow radio business investing in our differentiated and strong digital businesses to fuel continued strength and digital growth and using excess cash flow to reduce our leverage to below 4 times. As Stu will highlight, we have made considerable progress on net leverage, which has been one of our core priorities this year, reaching an all-time low of 4.5 times at the end of Q3 and will be even closer to 4 times by the year-end. Now I'll turn the call over to Stu, who will go through our strong third quarter results and provide an update on our Q4 and full year outlook for everyone. Take it away, Stu.

Thank you, Bill, and good morning, everyone. It's great to speak to everyone this morning. Before turning to our Q3 operating results, let me begin by making a note on our FCC licenses and noncash impairments. As I covered on previous calls, given the way that these noncash impairments are determined, we expect the value of our FCC licenses to continue to be written down over time. In 2022, as a result of rising interest rates, the assumptions that we use to evaluate our FCC licenses for impairment were negatively impacted. As a result, we took a noncash impairment charge to our FCC licenses of $10.3 million in the third quarter. This write-down of a decade-old purchase price calculation has no bearing on our cash position, our operating revenue or expenses, our profitability or our future prospects. They are nothing more than noncash accounting charges affecting only the purchase price allocations made when we bought our radio station assets roughly a decade or more ago. Our third quarter noncash impairment charges led to a decrease in net income of approximately $10.1 million in the third quarter to $2.8 million, or $0.13 per diluted share, as compared to $12.9 million, or $0.64 per diluted share in the third quarter of 2021. Adjusted net income, which we believe is a much more valuable measure, as it excludes one-off items such as noncash impairment charges, and is detailed in the schedules to our earnings release, was $8.3 million, or $0.47 per diluted share for the third quarter in 2022. More importantly, let me now turn to our Q3 operating results. We are very pleased to report that the third quarter marked yet another strong quarter of growth at Townsquare, leading us to deliver all-time record-high Q3 revenue and Q3 adjusted EBITDA. And although political hasn't shaped up the way we initially expected, we were still able to deliver growth in our digital and broadcast businesses and achieve our Q3 guidance. Third quarter net revenue increased 8.4% over the prior year period to a record-setting $120.6 million, within our third quarter guidance range of $120 million to $127 million despite the softness in political, auto and national broadcast advertising. Third quarter political revenue of $1.6 million was below Q3 2018 political revenue by 31%. Excluding political, third quarter net revenue increased a strong 7.5% year-over-year. Third quarter adjusted EBITDA increased 6% year-over-year to a record-setting $30.9 million, achieving the middle of our guidance range of $30 million to $32 million. Townsquare Interactive, our subscription digital marketing solutions segment, demonstrated its consistency yet again, delivering another quarter of strong net revenue, profit and net subscriber growth. In the third quarter, net revenue increased approximately 10% as compared to the prior year, supported by the addition of approximately 850 net new subscribers. Townsquare Interactive's third quarter profit increased approximately 4% year-over-year to $6.4 million, at a 20% profit margin. Townsquare Ignite, our digital advertising segment, was the largest driver of growth in the third quarter and year-to-date periods, with net revenue increasing 21.3% in both periods. Digital advertising profit increased 8.7% in Q3, operating at a 30% margin. As Bill noted, although we view it as a mature cash cow business, our broadcast advertising net revenue increased 3.4% in the third quarter as compared to the prior year. Broadcast profit margins were 33% in Q3. Our other category, which is comprised of live events activity, generated $1.2 million of revenue and had a small loss of $238,000, as compared to the prior year third quarter. Revenue in our other category declined $1.2 million due to the timing of certain events that were held in Q2 this year, that were held in Q3 of last year. In the third quarter of 2022, we generated $9.1 million of positive cash flow from operations, up $2 million year-over-year. In the first nine months of the year, we generated positive cash flow from operations of $32.1 million, which was a $6 million decrease from the prior year period entirely due to the timing of our interest payments. In 2021, we only paid $29 million of interest payments in the first nine months, due to the timing of our refinancing, as compared to $38 million this year. Prior to interest payments, we generated positive cash flow from operations of $70 million, a $4 million increase from the prior year period. We ended the third quarter with $27 million of cash and $530.8 million of total debt. Based on a trailing 12-month adjusted EBITDA of $110.9 million as of September 30, our net leverage has declined to an all-time low of 4.54 times. We'd like to remind you that any benefit or provision for income taxes included on the face of the income statement is for GAAP financial statement purposes only. We maintain significant tax attributes, including more than $100 million of federal and state NOL carryforwards and other substantial tax shields related to the tax amortization of our intangible assets. We continue to believe that we will not be a material cash taxpayer until the year approximately 2026. Our primary capital allocation priority after internal investment to grow our digital business is to reduce net leverage to approximately 4 times, which we will be approaching at the end of this year. Turning to our fourth quarter and year-end outlook. We expect fourth quarter net revenue to increase and be between $116 million and $122 million, which is a 5% to 10% increase over the prior year. We expect fourth quarter adjusted EBITDA to be between $27.7 million and $30.7 million, which is a year-over-year increase of 8% to 20%. For the full year, now that our updated political estimates are expected to be $5 million to $6 million lower than previously forecasted, we expect that our revenue for 2022 will be between $459 million and $465 million. This represents a very strong year-over-year growth of 10% to 11% and 9% to 10%, excluding political. We expect that 2022 adjusted EBITDA will be between $113 million and $116 million, once again representing a very strong year-over-year growth of 8% to 10%. Most importantly, this Q4 and full year revenue guidance will set an all-time high revenue record, as well as an all-time company high EBITDA record for Townsquare.

Thank you, Stu, and thank you to everyone who joined us this morning. We greatly appreciate it. Our Q3 results and our expected Q4 performance that Stu and I walked you through in detail today demonstrate the consistency and the strength of Townsquare's transformation into a differentiated digital-first local media company. I am pleased to share a few of the many key takeaways from our performance in Q3. One, net revenue overall was up a very strong 8.4%, and our adjusted EBITDA was up a very strong 6%. Not only were both well above 2019 levels, but also both net revenue and adjusted EBITDA represent the highest Q3 revenue and the highest Q3 adjusted EBITDA that Townsquare has ever achieved. Two, our digital growth engine in Q3 increased revenue by 17% year-over-year, and Q3 digital profit increased by 7% year-over-year, with a Q3 digital profit margin of 29%. In total, 50% of our September year-to-date revenue and 49% of our September year-to-date profit came from our digital businesses. Three, net leverage is at an all-time company low of 4.5 times adjusted EBITDA, on its way to approaching 4 times adjusted EBITDA by the end of 2022. Due to our differentiated digital businesses, our focus on markets outside of the top 50, our competitive strength, our strong cash flow generation and a strong focus on further deleveraging, we believe Townsquare is extremely well positioned for continued and future growth. As always, I'm extremely proud of our Townsquare team, whose hard work is the backbone of our success. Thanks again to all, and please do not hesitate to reach out if you have any more questions about Townsquare. Operator, at this time, please open the line for any and all questions.

Thank you. We will now be conducting a question and answer session. Thank you. And our first question is from the line of Michael Kupinski with Noble Capital Markets. Please proceed with your question.

Thank you, and thanks for taking the questions. First of all, congratulations on your quarter. A nice achievement. I was just wondering if you can talk a little bit about your guidance for Q4, particularly on your revenues. You indicated that political is a little softer than expected, and that's understandable. A number of companies are having similar issues. I was just wondering if you could just talk a little bit about maybe some of the individual line items and kind of give us a flavor of what you're seeing in terms of the cadence of the revenue growth in the digital businesses, particularly Interactive. Is that revenue growth continuing at the double-digit rate? And then Ignite would imply to me that there would be some issues in terms of economic sensitivity in that line item. I was just wondering if you're starting to see anything there in terms of impact for what we're seeing in the general economy.

Appreciate that, Michael. Good morning. It's Bill. Thank you for your commentary. A few things. So in terms of Q4, I'll break it down in terms of the guidance. Obviously, on the investor deck and what Stu just walked through on slide 21 in terms of the revenue guide for Q4 is 5% to 10%, and the profit EBITDA guide is 8% to 20%. So I'd say both should give a good sense that we're feeling quite good about Q4. And if we achieve this guidance, it will be a record Q4 in terms of net revenue and profit, and it will be the highest net revenue and profit year for the company. So getting back to your specific question about the line items, in terms of broadcast, my expectation is local continues to perform well. As we noted, I think on the call, it was in the mid-single digits in terms of growth, and that is expected to continue in Q4. So Q4 from local looks similar to Q3. National could get a little worse. As we noted on the call, it was down mid-teens in Q3, and that was quite accelerated from actual growth in Q1, a slight decline in Q2, to significant decline in Q3. As we highlighted on the call, thankfully for us, it's less than 10% of our advertising revenue and less than 5% of our total revenue. But we do expect to see that weakness continue into Q4. So what that means for broadcast overall is relatively stable. I'd say similar to this quarter where we were, in essence, broadcast was plus 1% and some change, excluding political. I would say broadcast for Q4 is probably flat. Depending on where national ends up, it could be low single digits, but I would guide to flat for broadcast, just to be conservative for Q4. And then digital, as we know, broadcast is our mature cash business. When we have our five-year plan, we're not expecting growth in that line. We're going to continue to manage it as a mature cash cow business and align our expenses with revenue wherever that may fall over the next five years. And digital is our growth engine. So we continue to see strong growth in digital, up 17% in Q3, reaffirming our $275 million by the end of '24. We expect double-digit revenue growth for TSI for the year. And then to your specific point about Ignite and do we expect any slowdown or deterioration based on what you're hearing probably from macro uncertainty, as well as probably some of the tech companies, we're not seeing that. So we expect Ignite to be again in Q4 double-digit growth. And therefore, digital will be double-digit growth overall. It continues to perform quite well. I think the reality for us is even our digital advertising is so locally focused. And even in past downturns and recessions, digital advertising grew. So if there is a recession, our expectation is digital advertising continues to grow and we continue to outperform the market based on: A, having our owned and operated property on the web in terms of our websites and mobile apps, which reach 70% of the populations that we operate in; and then combine that with our first-party data and the fact that we've got an AdTech the programmatic side that is highly differentiated in our markets and that we're outside of the top 50 markets. We expect even in a downturn, if one were to occur, Ignite, which is our digital advertising, to continue to grow quite nicely. So I think I covered all of your multi-point questions.

And in terms of your Interactive business, I know a number of other companies are trying to move more strongly into the digital, building a presence very similarly to what you've done in the Interactive side of your business. So I was just wondering if you're starting to see a little bit of increased competition. I know that you're in small markets and with limited media presence, but I was wondering if you are starting to see a little bit more competition in some of your markets for your Interactive business.

We've always had competition. It's usually been either a digital agency in town, local media companies that primarily white-label third-party solutions as well as self-serve. So for Townsquare Interactive, we've always had competition. As you know, Michael, roughly 60% of our client base is actually outside of our radio footprint; 40%, within. But primarily, we're focusing outside the top 50 markets. So it's always been competitive. I think the fact that we bring this national scale with an average price point of roughly $300 and be able to drive such a significant return on investment, not only from a web presence but as we've outlined on prior earnings calls, we really drive incremental customers to these businesses for a very small price point. And it's hard to do this in markets if you don't have scale and if you don't own the whole AdTech. So I think one of the key differentiators, as you point out, is that there are other local media companies who see this as an opportunity. I'd say the moat we have around this is, and we highlight this again in our investor deck, is the engineering team that builds our products, and the fact that we have these products all in-house allows us to serve the customers better and meet their needs. So we don't see any increased competition, but there's always been competition there. And again, the fact that we've got this subscription revenue business that even in the depths of COVID grew every quarter in subscribers, revenue and profit, I think also is highly differentiated for us. If there is a downturn, this is another differentiator for Townsquare, that we've got this digital subscription business that continues to grow quite nicely.

You mentioned auto in your presentation. I was just wondering if you could talk a little bit about what is auto in terms of the percent of total revenues for the company. And a number of broadcasters have indicated that auto is kind of coming back for them. I was just wondering if you can kind of give us your thoughts about that category.

It's interesting to note that we currently do not see a resurgence in the auto sector. This has been echoed by others in the broadcast industry. Auto is by far our weakest category, and it is the only segment in digital advertising that isn't experiencing growth. While I will focus on broadcast, I believe this reflects a broader situation in our markets; supply hasn't reached the smaller markets in the United States. I have heard from some larger companies in the top 25 and top 50 markets that auto is making a comeback and that their supplies are returning to their lots. However, we are not experiencing that. For us, auto is down 40% in Q3 compared to 2019, and this trend is consistent year-to-date. We do not anticipate a recovery in this sector anytime soon, which contrasts with what others are reporting. When it does come back, it will be a positive development, but we are not expecting it until the latter half of '23 or possibly even '24. As we project for the next year, we do not foresee any growth in auto until there is more inventory available in our markets. This highlights our unique position as a local media company focused outside the top 50 markets, so the commentary you hear from others is quite different from our experience.

Thanks for the color. And last question. Do you have any updates on the new office in Phoenix?

Yes, quite excited. So we've got a few dozen people already hired for Phoenix, and we plan to be opening that in March. The early indications of recruitment, which as we noted on prior calls was the primary reason. There are secondary benefits in terms of time zones and servicing clients out there. But the primary reason we opened the second location was actually for recruitment of talent. And the work we've been doing with the local universities there as well as some local recruiters has been beyond our initial expectations. So it's a year of investment, as we've always said for our Phoenix office for Townsquare Interactive. So we have always guided that we will see increased growth in Townsquare Interactive as we head into 2024 because of the investment we're making in Phoenix. And that office is planned to be opened in March.

Great. Thank you.

Thank you, Michael. Appreciate it.

Our next question is from the line of Jim Goss with Barrington Research. Please proceed with your question.

Okay. Good morning. Just following up a little bit more on the TSI issue, given the stability relative to the advertising side, is there a way to accelerate that growth any greater, any faster than you are even with the Phoenix office and the dozen people you've hired already? Or are you pushing on a string or incurring too many costs to have that happen?

That's exactly our plan. The stability of this business compared to advertising, especially if there's a downturn in the macro environment, is quite differentiated for us and will stand out as it did in 2020 and 2021. We are aggressively investing in this business and believe that this investment will lead to additional revenue and profit. Since our last call, that investment has been modestly increasing as we ramp up Phoenix. For Q3, we're still operating at a 29% margin with Townsquare Interactive, and our digital Ignite advertising business is also performing well, with broadcast at 30%. As mentioned in previous earnings calls, we plan to maintain our digital businesses in the high-20s percent margins. We may see that margin dip to around 27.5% or 28% while we accelerate investments in Townsquare Interactive, but this will lead to increased revenue and profit. However, significant changes won't be visible until 2024, even though there may be some slight revenue acceleration in Q4 of '23 as we hire more aggressively after the physical space opens at the end of March. We view this business as stable and conducive to growth, justifying increased investment, especially in markets outside the top 50 cities where we have consistently outperformed others in this space for a decade.

Okay. Thanks. This political, turn to that for a minute. You parsed out the change from expectations. Of that roughly $5 million, how much was attributable to the third quarter versus the fourth quarter?

And Stu, you could step in if needed, but I believe the political figure was a couple of million. I'd estimate it's between $1.5 million and $2 million below in Q3, probably around $2 million. My expectation for Q4 was a bit over $6 million, considering the strength of 2020 and all the headlines about how much money has been raised. What we're seeing with other broadcasters is positive for the radio and TV industry as it has been a record midterm, but it was exactly the opposite for us. So I'd estimate $2 million in Q3 and over $4 million in Q4. I'll just check that with Stu. Is that what you were thinking, Stu?

You are absolutely spot on, Bill.

Given that there tends to be little displacement in radio, is most of that directly contributing to adjusted EBITDA? Or is there something else?

I don't know if I heard it correctly, but the political revenue would definitely contribute to our adjusted EBITDA. That's exactly right. Thank you, Jim.

I'm curious when you started to notice that some of the dollars were shifting away from certain markets where you had expected there to be some exposure.

When we last reported, we were about a month into Q3 and expected this quarter to perform better than Q3 of 2018, based on the dynamics regarding money raised and spent. However, we ended up seeing a 30% decline compared to 2018 and 64% down from 2020 in Q3, which was quite drastic. Even as we approached Q4, around 40 days ago, our rep firm suggested we could make up for the shortfall in October, but that did not happen. It was very disappointing to finish around $7 million when expectations were around $12 million to $13 million. Each day in October made it clear we weren't catching up, and Q4 was falling short of our expectations compared to both Q4 of 2018 and 2020. It became evident in October that we were facing this reality.

Okay. Thanks for that. Last thing I'd ask, does your ad sales staff who manages the local and national broadcast ads also have any involvement in the digital ad sales? Or is that entirely the AdTech platform you have talked about?

Great question, Jim, and I appreciate your commentary on the call. So I think one of the differentiators for us, A, we have a world-class local sales team. And importantly, we've been investing in that sales team. We have more employees today than we did in January of 2020, prior to COVID. So we were quite specific that we were going to protect our teams. As you probably recall, even in the depths of COVID, where other broadcasters were doing significant furloughs and RIFs, we did not do that. And it really benefited us coming out of COVID and setting an all-time record profit in 2021 and what we expect to be an all-time revenue and profit in 2022. And so our local sales teams are not only the best of the best, but they sell all of our products. So to your specific question, they sell our local broadcast advertising, they can sell across the nation through our technology on a national perspective, and they sell all of our digital advertising and they offer clients a great web presence and ROI for Townsquare Interactive in terms of incremental traffic through search engines and things like that. So we believe one of the core philosophies and recruitment vehicles and training mechanisms for our company, the fact that we can walk into a local business and, in essence, provide them a full suite of solutions from top-of-funnel, broad reach, obviously, radio is the number one reach medium in America, all the way down the funnel to conversions and paid search and form-fills and things like that, we believe, and I think our results continue to demonstrate, really differentiate us and provide great return on investment for our clients and local businesses. And I think our core philosophy, one of our mission points is treat customers like you treat a friend because if you do that you have a lifetime partner. So going back to your question, we think it's really important that our salespeople are trained on and have solutions throughout the marketing ecosystem. So that includes broadcast advertising, digital advertising on our owned and operated networks as well as programmatically. As we've discussed on prior calls, a big growth for us is social from a digital perspective as well as connected TV has been growing extremely nicely as cord-cutting accelerates. We're able to sell into a medium that five, 10 years ago we had no place to be in, and it's part of the fastest growing local advertising ecosystem. So our sales staff locally sells all of those products and is one of the reasons that we're posting such strong results.

All right. Well, thanks very much. Appreciate it very much.

Good to hear from you Jim. Thank you.

Thank you. We have reached the end of the question-and-answer session. I'll turn the call over to Bill Wilson for closing remarks.

Appreciate it. Thank you all for dialing in this morning. We appreciate you taking the time to hear more about our progress and transformation at Townsquare. We look forward to updating you on our full year results in early March. Have a great day.

This will conclude today's conference. You may disconnect your lines at this time. We thank you for your participation.
