ITEM 2.02 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

In connection with the proposed private offering of senior secured notes described in Item 8.01 below, Salem Media Group, Inc. (the “Company”) prepared a preliminary offering memorandum containing certain financial information to be distributed to prospective investors in the offering. An excerpt of such financial information is being filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this current report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

ITEM 8.01 OTHER EVENTS

On May 8, 2017, the Company issued a press release announcing its intention to offer, subject to market and other conditions, $255 million aggregate principal amount of senior secured notes due 2024 (the “Notes”) in a private offering. A new senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility is expected to be entered into at the time of the closing of the Notes offering (the “ABL Facility”). In accordance with Rule 135c promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), a copy of the press release is being filed as Exhibit 99.2 to this current report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

The Notes and related guarantees will not be registered under the Securities Act and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements. This current report on Form 8-K is neither an offer to sell nor the solicitation of an offer to buy the Notes or any other securities and shall not constitute an offer, solicitation or sale in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.

Statements included in this current report on Form 8-K that relate to future plans, events, financial results, prospects or performance, including statements regarding our plans and intentions with respect to the offering of Notes and the ABL Facility, are forward-looking statements as defined under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. While they are based on the current expectations and beliefs of management, they are subject to a number of uncertainties and assumptions that could cause actual results to differ from the expectations expressed in this current report on Form 8-K. Reference is made to a more complete discussion of forward-looking statements and applicable risks contained under the captions “Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” and “Risk Factors” in our Annual and Quarterly Reports on Forms 10-K and 10-Q, as applicable, and our other filings and submissions with the Securities and Exchange Commission, all of which are available free of charge on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements to reflect new information, changed circumstances or unanticipated events.
