Note 1. Description of Business and Basis of Presentation

Description of Business

OUTFRONT Media Inc. (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries (collectively, “we,” “us” or “our”) is a real estate investment trust (“REIT”), which provides advertising space (“displays”) on out-of-home advertising structures and sites in the United States (the “U.S.”) and Canada. Our inventory consists of billboard displays, which are primarily located on the most heavily traveled highways and roadways in top Nielsen Designated Market Areas (“DMAs”), and transit advertising displays operated under exclusive multi-year contracts with municipalities in large cities across the U.S. and Canada. In total, we have displays in all of the 25 largest markets in the U.S. and approximately 150 markets across the U.S. and Canada. We currently manage our operations through two operating segments—U.S. Billboard and Transit, which is included in our U.S. Media reportable segment, and International.

Basis of Presentation and Use of Estimates

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). In the opinion of our management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal and recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the more detailed financial statements and notes thereto, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the SEC on February 23, 2023.

The preparation of our financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, including the impact of events such as the COVID-19 pandemic and the current heightened levels of inflation, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Out-of-Period Adjustment

For the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company recorded an out-of-period adjustment relating to variable billboard property lease expenses and accrued lease and franchise costs in 2022, resulting in a $5.2 million increase in Operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The Company assessed the materiality of the amount reflected in this adjustment on its previously issued financial statements in accordance with the SEC’s Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 99 and SAB No. 108 and concluded that the amount was not material, individually or in the aggregate, to any of its previously issued financial statements.

Note 2. New Accounting Standards

Adoption of New Accounting Standards

In the first quarter of 2023, we adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (the “FASB”) guidance on the recognition and measurement of contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination. At the acquisition date, the acquirer should account for the related revenue contracts as if it had originated the contracts. The guidance also provides certain practical expedients for acquirers when recognizing and measuring acquired contract assets and contract liabilities from revenue contracts in a business combination. We will implement this guidance when accounting for business combinations in the future.

Recent Pronouncements

In March 2020 and December 2022, the FASB issued guidance providing optional expedients and exceptions for accounting for contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions that reference to the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform, if certain criteria are met. The guidance is

effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020, through December 31, 2024. This guidance did not have a significant impact on our accounting for our existing debt.

Note 3. Property and Equipment, Net

The table below presents the balances of major classes of assets and accumulated depreciation.


		As of
(in millions)	Estimated Useful Lives	June 30, 2023		December 31, 2022
Land		$	112.3	$	112.2
Buildings	15 to 35 years	57.5		56.5
Advertising structures	3 to 20 years	2,042.9		2,006.8
Furniture, equipment and other	3 to 10 years	192.9		183.4
Construction in progress		43.4		38.5
		2,449.0		2,397.4
Less: Accumulated depreciation		1,754.7		1,697.6
Property and equipment, net		$	694.3	$	699.8

Depreciation expense was $19.7 million in the three months ended June 30, 2023, $19.4 million in the three months ended June 30, 2022, $39.8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2023, and $38.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Note 4. Long-Lived Assets

By the end of the first half of 2023, our U.S. Transit and Other reporting unit did not meet revenue expectations and as of June 30, 2023, our revenue pacing and outlook for the remainder of 2023 reflects a continued decline in transit revenues as compared to our 2023 forecast due to underperformance across our transit business, including the New York Metropolitan Transportation Authority (the “MTA”) transit system. As a result, we determined that there was a decline in the long-term outlook for our U.S. Transit and Other reporting unit constituting a triggering event, which requires an interim impairment analysis of goodwill and long-lived assets.

Goodwill

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, and the year ended December 31, 2022, the changes in the book value of goodwill by segment were as follows:


(in millions)	U.S. Media		Other		Total
As of December 31, 2021	$	2,054.0	$	23.8	$	2,077.8

The estimated fair value of our U.S. Transit and Other reporting unit exceeded its carrying value by 28% as of December 31, 2022, based on our goodwill impairment assessment in the prior year. As a result of the impairment analysis performed during the second quarter of 2023, we determined that the carrying value of our U.S. Transit and Other reporting unit exceeded its fair value and we recorded an impairment charge of $47.6 million in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

As of June 30, 2023, the goodwill balances associated with the U.S. Billboard reporting unit was $2,006.4 million and the Canada reporting unit was $22.9 million.

Intangible Assets

Our identifiable intangible assets primarily consist of acquired permits and leasehold agreements, and franchise agreements, which grant us the right to operate out-of-home structures in specified locations and the right to provide advertising space on railroad and municipal transit properties. Identifiable intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful life, which is the respective life of the agreement that in some cases includes historical experience of renewals.

Our identifiable intangible assets consist of the following:


(in millions)	Gross		Accumulated Amortization		Impairment		Net
As of June 30, 2023:
Permits and leasehold agreements	$	1,620.1	$	(901.0)	$	—	$	719.1

Total intangible assets	$	2,149.7	$	(1,291.2)	$	—	$	858.5

(a)We reclassified all Prepaid MTA equipment deployment costs (see Note 16. Commitments and Contingencies) and recorded an impairment due to a decline in the long-term outlook of our U.S. Transit and Other reporting unit.

In the six months ended June 30, 2023, we acquired approximately 440 displays, resulting in amortizable intangible assets for permits and leasehold agreements of $23.8 million, which are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives, an average period of 14.9 years.

All of our intangible assets, except goodwill, are subject to amortization. Amortization expense was $21.5 million in the three months ended June 30, 2023, $17.3 million in the three months ended June 30, 2022, $43.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2023, and $32.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022.

We performed an analysis of carrying value of our long-lived asset groups within our U.S. Transit and Other reporting unit as a result of the triggering event noted above utilizing undiscounted cash flows compared to the carrying value of the asset groups. As a result, we recorded an impairment charge of $463.5 million in the second quarter of 2023, primarily representing a $443.1 million impairment charge related to our MTA asset group.

Note 7. Related Party Transactions

On January 18, 2023, we entered into a transaction with an affiliate of Providence Equity Partners L.L.C. (the “Providence Affiliate”) in connection with the Providence Affiliate’s purchase of a lease for certain outdoor advertising assets (the “Assets”) from a third-party seller. Pursuant to an agreement between us and the Providence Affiliate (the “Billboard Agreement”), we agreed to exclusively market, license and make advertising space available on the Assets to third-party advertisers for a term of up to ten years (the “Transaction”). In return, we will retain all revenues from the sale of advertising with respect to the Assets less the following payments to the Providence Affiliate or its payment designee, as applicable: (i) a minimum annual guarantee payment paid to the Providence Affiliate’s payment designee that increases from approximately $1.8 million to $3.5 million during the term of the Billboard Agreement; (ii) a minimum annual guarantee payment paid to the Providence Affiliate that increases from $8.5 million to $12.0 million by year six and adjusted for inflation thereafter through year ten; (iii) a percentage revenue share payment on gross revenues generated above $22.0 million paid to the Providence Affiliate during the term of the Billboard Agreement; (iv) a percentage revenue share payment on net revenues until $100.0 million is paid to the Providence Affiliate or its payment designee, as applicable; and (v) a one-time payment of $10.0 million paid to the Providence Affiliate on the fifth anniversary of the closing of the Transaction (the “Transaction Closing”) if we have not yet acquired the Assets as

described below. The Billboard Agreement also provides that (i) we have the option to acquire the Assets from the Providence Affiliate between the third and seventh anniversaries of the Transaction Closing at pre-agreed prices depending on the time at which we exercise the option; (ii) prior to the seventh anniversary of the Transaction Closing, we have a right of first offer prior to any sale of the Assets by the Providence Affiliate to a third-party; and (iii) in the event of a termination of the Billboard Agreement by the Providence Affiliate after a sale to a third-party, we may in certain circumstances be entitled to receive a termination payment. As of June 30, 2023, operating lease assets related to the Billboard Agreement were $95.2 million and non-current operating lease liabilities related to the Billboard Agreement were $94.1 million, and are included in Operating lease assets and non-current Operating lease liabilities, respectively, on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position.

Term Loan

The interest rate on the term loan due in 2026 (the “Term Loan”) was 6.9% per annum as of June 30, 2023. As of June 30, 2023, a discount of $1.2 million on the Term Loan remains unamortized. The discount is being amortized through Interest expense, net, on the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

Revolving Credit Facility

We also have a $500.0 million revolving credit facility, which matures in 2028 (the “Revolving Credit Facility,” together with the Term Loan, the “Senior Credit Facilities”).

During the second quarter of 2023, the Company, along with its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Outfront Media Capital LLC (“Finance LLC”) and Outfront Media Capital Corporation (together with Finance LLC, the “Borrowers”), and the other guarantors party thereto, entered into two amendments (the “Amendments”) to the Credit Agreement (as defined below). The Amendments provide for (i) the replacement of the London Interbank Offered Rate with the Secured Overnight Financing Rate as the interest rate benchmark, (ii) the extension of the maturity date of the Revolving Credit Facility from its previous maturity date of November 18, 2024 to June 15, 2028, and (iii) an increase in the interest rate margins applicable to the Borrowers under the Revolving Credit Facility from a range of 1.25% to 1.75% to a range of 1.75% to 2.25%, in the case of Secured Overnight Financing Rate borrowings, based on the Borrowers’ leverage ratio. The Amendments also include springing maturity refinancing provisions with respect to the Borrowers’ outstanding term loan indebtedness and certain series of senior notes issued by the Borrowers, in each case, which have maturity dates prior to June 15, 2028, as well as other clarifying, conforming and ministerial changes to the Credit Agreement.

As of June 30, 2023, there were no outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility.

The commitment fee based on the amount of unused commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility was $0.4 million in each of the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, $0.8 million in each of the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. As of June 30, 2023, we had issued letters of credit totaling approximately $6.5 million against the letter of credit facility sublimit under the Revolving Credit Facility.

Standalone Letter of Credit Facilities

As of June 30, 2023, we had issued letters of credit totaling approximately $77.1 million under our aggregate $81.0 million standalone letter of credit facilities. The total fees under the letter of credit facilities were immaterial in each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.

Accounts Receivable Securitization Facility

As of June 30, 2023, we have a $150.0 million revolving accounts receivable securitization facility (the “AR Facility”), which terminates in May 2025, unless further extended.

In connection with the AR Facility, Outfront Media LLC and Outfront Media Outernet Inc., each a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and certain of the Company’s taxable REIT subsidiaries (“TRSs”) (the “Originators”), will sell and/or contribute their respective existing and future accounts receivable and certain related assets to either Outfront Media Receivables LLC, a special purpose vehicle and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company relating to the Company’s qualified REIT subsidiary accounts receivable assets (the “QRS SPV”) or Outfront Media Receivables TRS, LLC a special purpose vehicle and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company relating to the Company’s TRS accounts receivable assets (the “TRS SPV” and together with the QRS SPV, the “SPVs”). The SPVs may transfer undivided interests in their respective accounts receivable assets to certain purchasers from time to time (the “Purchasers”). The SPVs are separate legal entities with their own separate creditors who will be entitled to access the SPVs’ assets before the assets become available to the Company. Accordingly, the SPVs’ assets are not available to pay creditors of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, although collections from the receivables in excess of amounts required to repay the Purchasers and other creditors of the SPVs may be remitted to the Company. Outfront Media LLC will service the accounts receivables on behalf of the SPVs for a fee. The Company has agreed to guarantee the performance of the Originators and Outfront Media LLC, in its capacity as servicer, of their respective obligations under the agreements governing the AR Facility. Neither the Company, the Originators nor the SPVs guarantee the collectability of the receivables under the AR Facility. Further, the TRS SPV and the QRS SPV are jointly and severally liable for their respective obligations under the agreements governing the AR Facility.

The commitment fee based on the amount of unused commitments under the AR Facility was immaterial for the three months ended June 30, 2023, $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, and immaterial for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2022.

Debt Covenants

Our credit agreement, dated as of January 31, 2014 (as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified, the “Credit Agreement”), governing the Senior Credit Facilities, the agreements governing the AR Facility, and the indentures governing our senior unsecured notes contain customary affirmative and negative covenants, subject to certain exceptions, including but not limited to those that restrict the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ abilities to (i) pay dividends on, repurchase or make distributions in respect to the Company’s or its wholly-owned subsidiary, Outfront Media Capital LLC’s capital stock or make other restricted payments other than dividends or distributions necessary for us to maintain our REIT status, subject to certain conditions and exceptions, (ii) enter into agreements restricting certain subsidiaries’ ability to pay dividends or make other intercompany or third-party transfers, and (iii) incur additional indebtedness. One of the exceptions to the restriction on our ability to incur additional indebtedness is satisfaction of a Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio, which is the ratio of our consolidated total debt to our Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Agreement) for the trailing four consecutive quarters, of no greater than 6.0 to 1.0. As of June 30, 2023, our Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio was 5.1 to 1.0 in accordance with the Credit Agreement.

The terms of the Credit Agreement (and under certain circumstances, the agreements governing the AR Facility) require that we maintain a Consolidated Net Secured Leverage Ratio, which is the ratio of (i) our consolidated secured debt (less up to $150.0 million of unrestricted cash) to (ii) our Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Agreement) for the trailing four consecutive quarters, of no greater than 4.5 to 1.0. As of June 30, 2023, our Consolidated Net Secured Leverage Ratio was 1.1 to 1.0 in accordance with the Credit Agreement. As of June 30, 2023, we are in compliance with our debt covenants.

Deferred Financing Costs

As of June 30, 2023, we had deferred $25.7 million in fees and expenses associated with the Term Loan, Revolving Credit Facility, AR Facility and our senior unsecured notes. We are amortizing the deferred fees through Interest expense, net, on our Consolidated Statement of Operations over the respective terms of the Term Loan, Revolving Credit Facility, AR Facility and our senior unsecured notes.

Fair Value

Under the fair value hierarchy, observable inputs such as unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities are defined as Level 1; observable inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are either directly or indirectly observable for the asset or liability are defined as Level 2; and unobservable inputs for the asset or liability are defined as Level 3. The aggregate fair value of our debt, which is estimated based on quoted market prices of similar liabilities, was approximately $2.6 billion as of June 30, 2023, and $2.5 billion as of December 31, 2022. The fair value of our debt as of both June 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, is classified as Level 2.

Note 9. Equity

As of June 30, 2023, 450,000,000 shares of our common stock, par value $0.01 per share, were authorized; 165,042,433 shares were issued and outstanding; and 50,000,000 shares of our preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share, were authorized, with 125,000 shares of our Series A Convertible Perpetual Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock”), par value $0.01 per share, issued and outstanding.

The Series A Preferred Stock ranks senior to the shares of the Company’s common stock with respect to dividend and distribution rights. Holders of the Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to a cumulative dividend accruing at the initial rate of 7.0% per year, payable quarterly in arrears, subject to increases as set forth in the Articles Supplementary, effective as of April 20, 2020 (the “Articles”). Dividends may, at the option of the Company, be paid in cash, in-kind, through the issuance of additional shares of Series A Preferred Stock or a combination of cash and in-kind, until April 20, 2028, after which time

dividends will be payable solely in cash. So long as any shares of Series A Preferred Stock remain outstanding, the Company may not, without the consent of a specified percentage of holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock, declare a dividend on, or make any distributions relating to, capital stock that ranks junior to, or on a parity basis with, the Series A Preferred Stock, subject to certain exceptions, including but not limited to (i) any dividend or distribution in cash or capital stock of the Company on or in respect of the capital stock of the Company to the extent that such dividend or distribution is necessary to maintain the Company’s status as a REIT; and (ii) any dividend or distribution in cash in respect of our common stock that, together with the dividends or distributions during the 12-month period immediately preceding such dividend or distribution, is not in excess of 5% of the aggregate dividends or distributions paid by the Company necessary to maintain its REIT status during such 12-month period. If any dividends or distributions in respect of the shares of our common stock are paid in cash, the shares of Series A Preferred Stock will participate in the dividends or distributions on an as-converted basis up to the amount of their accrued dividend for such quarter, which amounts will reduce the dividends payable on the shares of Series A Preferred Stock dollar-for-dollar for such quarter. The Series A Preferred Stock is convertible at the option of any holder at any time into shares of our common stock at an initial conversion price of $16.00 per share and an initial conversion rate of 62.50 shares of our common stock per share of Series A Preferred Stock, subject to certain anti-dilution adjustments and a share cap as set forth in the Articles. Subject to certain conditions set forth in the Articles (including a change of control), each of the Company and the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock may convert or redeem the Series A Preferred Stock at the prices set forth in the Articles, plus any accrued and unpaid dividends.

During the three months ended June 30, 2023, we paid cash dividends of $2.2 million on the Series A Preferred Stock and during the six months ended June 30, 2023, we paid cash dividends of $4.4 million on the Series A Preferred Stock. As of June 30, 2023, the maximum number of shares of common stock that could be required to be issued on conversion of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock was approximately 7.8 million shares.

We have a sales agreement in connection with an “at-the-market” equity offering program (the “ATM Program”), under which we may, from time to time, issue and sell shares of our common stock up to an aggregate offering price of $300.0 million. We have no obligation to sell any of our common stock under the sales agreement and may at any time suspend solicitations and offers under the sales agreement. No shares were sold under the ATM Program during the six months ended June 30, 2023. As of June 30, 2023, we had approximately $232.5 million of capacity remaining under the ATM Program.

On August 3, 2023, we announced that our board of directors approved a quarterly cash dividend of $0.30 per share on our common stock, payable on September 29, 2023, to stockholders of record at the close of business on September 1, 2023.

In 2023, we do not expect to contribute to our defined benefit pension plans.

Note 14. Income Taxes

We are organized in conformity with the requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) and, accordingly, we have not provided for U.S. federal income tax on our REIT taxable income that we distribute to our stockholders. We have elected to treat our subsidiaries that participate in certain non-REIT qualifying activities as TRSs. As such, we have provided for their federal, state and foreign income taxes.

Tax years 2019 to present are open for examination by the tax authorities.

Our effective income tax rate represents a combined annual effective tax rate for federal, state, local and foreign taxes applied to interim operating results.

In the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, our effective tax rate differed from the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate primarily due to our REIT status, including the dividends paid deduction, the impact of state and local taxes, and the effect of foreign operations.

Note 16. Commitments and Contingencies

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Our off-balance sheet commitments primarily consist of guaranteed minimum annual payments. These arrangements result from our normal course of business and represent obligations that are payable over several years.

Contractual Obligations

We have agreements with municipalities and transit operators which entitle us to operate advertising displays within their transit systems, including on the interior and exterior of rail and subway cars and buses, as well as on benches, transit shelters, street kiosks, and transit platforms. Under most of these franchise agreements, the franchisor is entitled to receive the greater of a percentage of the relevant revenues, net of agency fees, or a specified guaranteed minimum annual payment.

Under the current MTA agreement, which was amended in June 2020 and July 2021 and is subject to modification as agreed-upon by us and the MTA (as amended, the “MTA Agreement”):

•Deployments. We must deploy, over a number of years, (i) 5,433 digital advertising screens on subway and train platforms and entrances, (ii) 15,896 smaller-format digital advertising screens on rolling stock, and (iii) 9,283 MTA communications displays. We are also obligated to deploy certain additional digital advertising screens and MTA communications displays in subway and train stations and rolling stock that the MTA may build or acquire in the future (collectively, the “New Inventory”).

business, financial condition and results of operations, including impairment charges (see Note 4. Long-Lived Assets). If we do not recoup all costs of deploying advertising and communications screens with respect to the New Inventory by the end of the term of the MTA Agreement, the MTA will be obligated to reimburse us for these costs. Deployment costs in an amount not to exceed $50.7 million, which are deemed authorized before December 31, 2020, will be paid directly by the MTA. For any deployment costs deemed authorized after December 31, 2020, the MTA and the Company will no longer be obligated to directly pay 70% and 30% of the costs, respectively, and these costs will be subject to recoupment in accordance with the MTA Agreement. We did not recoup any equipment deployment costs in the six months ended June 30, 2023, and we do not expect to recoup any equipment deployment costs in the remainder of 2023.

•Payments. We must pay to the MTA the greater of a percentage of revenues or a guaranteed minimum annual payment. Our payment obligations with respect to guaranteed minimum annual payment amounts owed to the MTA resumed on January 1, 2021, in accordance with the terms of the MTA Agreement, and any guaranteed minimum annual payment amounts that would have been paid for the period from April 1, 2020 through December 31, 2020 (less any revenue share amounts actually paid during this period using an increased revenue share percentage of 65%) will instead be added in equal increments to the guaranteed minimum annual payment amounts owed for the period from January 1, 2022, through December 31, 2026. The MTA Agreement also provides that if prior to April 1, 2028 the balance of unrecovered costs of deploying advertising and communications screens throughout the transit system is equal to or less than zero, then in any year following the year in which such recoupment occurs (the “Recoupment Year”), the MTA is entitled to receive an additional payment equal to 2.5% of the annual base revenue amount for such year calculated in accordance with the MTA Agreement, provided that gross revenues in such year (i) were at least equal to the gross revenues generated in the Recoupment Year, and (ii) did not decline by more than 5% from the prior year.

•Term. In July 2021, we extended the initial 10-year term of the MTA Agreement to a 13-year base term (the “Amended Term”). We have the option to extend the Amended Term for an additional five-year period at the end of the Amended Term, subject to satisfying certain quantitative and qualitative conditions.

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, we had no recoupment from incremental revenues. As of June 30, 2023, 16,758 digital displays had been installed, composed of 5,135 digital advertising screens on subway and train platforms and entrances, 6,952 smaller-format digital advertising screens on rolling stock and 4,671 MTA communications displays. In the three months ended June 30, 2023, 1,558 installations occurred, for a total of 2,605 installations occurring in the six months ended June 30, 2023.

We performed an analysis of carrying value of our long-lived asset groups within our U.S. Transit and Other reporting unit as a result of the triggering event noted above utilizing undiscounted cash flows compared to the carrying value of the asset groups. As a result we recorded an impairment charge of $463.5 million in the second quarter of 2023, primarily representing a $443.1 million impairment charge related to our MTA asset group. (See Note 4. Long-Lived Assets.)

Letters of Credit

We have indemnification obligations with respect to letters of credit and surety bonds primarily used as security against non-performance in the normal course of business. As of June 30, 2023, the outstanding letters of credit were approximately $83.6 million and outstanding surety bonds were approximately $170.0 million, and were not recorded on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position.

Legal Matters

On an ongoing basis, we are engaged in lawsuits and governmental proceedings and respond to various investigations, inquiries, notices and claims from national, state and local governmental and other authorities (collectively, “litigation”). Litigation is inherently uncertain and always difficult to predict. Although it is not possible to predict with certainty the eventual outcome of any litigation, in our opinion, none of our current litigation is expected to have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

Note 17. Segment Information

We currently manage our operations through two operating segments—U.S. Billboard and Transit, which is included in our U.S. Media reportable segment, and International. International does not meet the criteria to be a reportable segment and accordingly, is included in Other.

The following tables set forth our financial performance by segment.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) should be read in conjunction with our historical consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto appearing in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 23, 2023, and the unaudited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. This MD&A contains forward-looking statements that involve numerous risks and uncertainties. The forward-looking statements are subject to a number of important factors, including, but not limited to, those factors discussed in the sections entitled “Risk Factors” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the SEC on February 23, 2023, and the section entitled “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, that could cause our actual results to differ materially from the results described herein or implied by such forward-looking statements. Except as otherwise indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, all references in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to (i) “OUTFRONT Media,” “the Company,” “we,” “our,” “us” and “our company” mean OUTFRONT Media Inc., a Maryland corporation, and unless the context requires otherwise, its consolidated subsidiaries, and (ii) the “25 largest markets in the U.S.,” “approximately 150 markets in the U.S. and Canada” and “Nielsen Designated Market Areas” are based, in whole or in part, on Nielsen Media Research’s 2023 Designated Market Area rankings.

Overview

OUTFRONT Media is a real estate investment trust (“REIT”), which provides advertising space (“displays”) on out-of-home advertising structures and sites in the United States (the “U.S.”) and Canada. We currently manage our operations through two operating segments—U.S. Billboard and Transit, which is included in our U.S. Media reportable segment, and International. International does not meet the criteria to be a reportable segment and accordingly, is included in Other (see Note 17. Segment Information to the Consolidated Financial Statements).

Business

We are one of the largest providers of advertising space on out-of-home advertising structures and sites across the U.S. and Canada. Our inventory consists of billboard displays, which are primarily located on the most heavily traveled highways and roadways in top Nielsen Designated Market Areas (“DMAs”), and transit advertising displays operated under exclusive multi-year contracts with municipalities in large cities across the U.S. and Canada. In total, we have displays in all of the 25 largest markets in the U.S. and approximately 150 markets in the U.S. and Canada. Our top market, high profile location focused portfolio includes sites in and around both Grand Central Station and Times Square in New York, various locations along Sunset Boulevard in Los Angeles, and the Bay Bridge in San Francisco. The breadth and depth of our portfolio provides our customers with a range of options to address their marketing objectives, from national, brand-building campaigns to hyper-local campaigns that drive customers to the advertiser’s website or retail location “one mile down the road.”

In addition to providing location-based displays, we also focus on delivering mass and targeted audiences to our customers. Geopath, the out-of-home advertising industry’s audience measurement system, enables us to build campaigns based on the size and demographic composition of audiences. As part of our technology platform, we are developing solutions for enhanced demographic and location targeting, and engaging ways to connect with consumers on-the-go.

We believe out-of-home continues to be an attractive form of advertising, as our displays are always viewable and cannot be turned off, skipped, blocked or fast-forwarded. Further, out-of-home advertising can be an effective “stand-alone” medium, as well as an integral part of a campaign to reach audiences using multiple forms of media, including television, radio, print, online, mobile and social media advertising platforms. We provide our customers with a differentiated advertising solution at an attractive price point relative to other forms of advertising. In addition to leasing displays, we provide other value-added services to our customers, such as pre-campaign category research, consumer insights, print production, creative services and post-campaign tracking and analytics.

Economic Environment

Our revenues and operating results are sensitive to fluctuations in advertising expenditures, general economic conditions and other external events beyond our control, such as supply chain disruptions, heightened levels of inflation, pandemics like the COVID-19 pandemic, industry shutdowns like the current entertainment strikes, and shifts in market demographics and transportation patterns (including reductions in foot traffic, roadway traffic, commuting, transit ridership and overall target audiences due to remote work, safety concerns or otherwise), as described in this MD&A. These sensitivities may adversely impact our revenues and operating results on a consolidated basis and/or may have a disproportionate adverse impact on one or more of our operating segments, especially our U.S. Transit operating segment.

Table of Contents

We rely on third parties to manufacture and transport our digital displays. As a result of the current market-wide supply shortages and logistics disruptions, we have experienced delays and price increases with respect to certain of our digital displays, which we expect to continue in 2023, and could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Due to the current heightened levels of inflation and commodity prices in the U.S. and abroad, which has resulted in rising interest rates, we have experienced increases with respect to our posting, maintenance and other expenses, our corporate expenses and our interest expense, which we expect to continue in 2023, and could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Our billboard property lease expenses and transit franchise expenses have been less impacted by the current heightened levels of inflation due to the long-term nature of most of our operating leases and transit franchise agreements. However, our transit franchise agreements that contain inflationary price adjustments may cause increases in our transit franchise expenses in the near-term if the current heightened levels of inflation continue. Though the Company cannot reasonably estimate the full impact of the current heightened levels of inflation on our business, financial condition and results of operations at this time, a portion of these increases may be partially offset by increases in advertising rates on our displays and cost efficiencies.

Business Environment

The outdoor advertising industry is fragmented, consisting of several companies operating on a national basis, as well as hundreds of smaller regional and local companies operating a limited number of displays in a single or a few local geographic markets. We compete with these companies for both customers and structure and display locations. We also compete with other media, including online, mobile and social media advertising platforms and traditional advertising platforms (such as television, radio, print and direct mail marketers). In addition, we compete with a wide variety of out-of-home media, including advertising in shopping centers, airports, movie theaters, supermarkets and taxis.

Increasing the number of digital displays in our prime audience locations is an important element of our organic growth strategy, as digital displays have the potential to attract additional business from both new and existing customers. We believe digital displays are attractive to our customers because they allow for the development of richer and more visually engaging messages, provide our customers with the flexibility both to target audiences by time of day and to quickly launch new advertising campaigns, and eliminate or greatly reduce print production and installation costs. In addition, digital displays enable us to run multiple advertisements on each display. Digital billboard displays generate approximately four times more revenue per display on average than traditional static billboard displays. Digital billboard displays also incur, on average, approximately two to four times more costs, including higher variable costs associated with the increase in revenue than traditional static billboard displays. As a result, digital billboard displays generate higher profits and cash flows than traditional static billboard displays.

We have deployed state-of-the-art digital transit displays in connection with several transit franchises we operate and we expect to continue these deployments over the coming years, but at a slower pace than our historical deployments. In the future, we expect revenues generated on digital transit displays will be higher than revenues generated on comparable static transit displays.

We intend to incur significant equipment deployment costs and capital expenditures in the coming years to continue increasing the number of digital displays in our portfolio. However, we expect our annual deployment cost spending with respect to our transit franchise agreement with the New York Metropolitan Transportation Authority (the “MTA”) will decline beginning in 2024 as we near the end of our initial deployment phase.

We built or converted 35 new digital billboard displays in the U.S. and 20 in Canada during the six months ended June 30, 2023. Additionally, in the six months ended June 30, 2023, we entered into marketing arrangements to sell advertising on 25 third-party digital billboard displays in the U.S. In the six months ended June 30, 2023, we built, converted or replaced 2,662

Table of Contents

digital transit and other displays in the U.S. and 22 in Canada. The following table sets forth information regarding our digital displays.


	Digital Revenues (in millions) for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2023(a)						Number of Digital Displays as of June 30, 2023(a)
Location	Digital Billboard		Digital Transit and Other		Total Digital Revenues		Digital Billboard Displays	Digital Transit and Other Displays	Total Digital Displays

Total	$	202.8	$	63.2	$	266.0	2,048	18,681	20,729

(a)Digital display amounts include 4,749 displays reserved for transit agency use. Our number of digital displays is impacted by acquisitions, dispositions, management agreements, the net effect of new and lost billboards, and the net effect of won and lost franchises in the period.

Our revenues and profits may fluctuate due to seasonal advertising patterns and influences on advertising markets. Typically, our revenues and profits are highest in the fourth quarter, during the holiday shopping season, and lowest in the first quarter, as advertisers adjust their spending following the holiday shopping season. As described above, our revenues and profits may also fluctuate due to external events beyond our control.

We have a diversified base of customers across various industries. During the three months ended June 30, 2023, our largest categories of advertisers were entertainment, retail and health/medical, each of which represented approximately 20%, 10% and 8% of our total U.S. Media segment revenues, respectively. During the three months ended June 30, 2022, our largest categories of advertisers were entertainment, retail and health/medical, each of which represented approximately 20%, 11% and 9% of our total U.S. Media segment revenues, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, our largest categories of advertisers were entertainment, retail and health/medical, each of which represented approximately 20%, 10% and 9% of our total U.S. Media segment revenues, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, our largest categories of advertisers were entertainment, retail and health/medical, each of which represented approximately 21%, 10% and 9% of our total U.S. Media segment revenues, respectively.

Our large-scale portfolio allows our customers to reach a national audience and also provides the flexibility to tailor campaigns to specific regions or markets. We generated approximately 42% of our U.S. Media segment revenues from national advertising campaigns in each of the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. In the six months ended June 30, 2023, we generated approximately 41% of our U.S. Media segment revenues from national advertising campaigns compared to approximately 42% in the same prior-year period.

Our transit businesses require us to periodically obtain and renew contracts with municipalities and other governmental entities. When these contracts expire, we generally must participate in highly competitive bidding processes in order to obtain or renew contracts.

Key Performance Indicators

Our management reviews our performance by focusing on the indicators described below.

Several of our key performance indicators are not prepared in conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States of America (“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 management believes organic revenues are useful to users of our financial data because it enables them to better understand the level of growth of our business period to period. Since organic revenues are not calculated in accordance with GAAP, it should not be considered in isolation of, or as a substitute for, revenues as an indicator of operating performance. Organic revenues, as we calculate it, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies.

(b)See the “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” and “Revenues” sections of this MD&A for reconciliations of Operating income to Operating income before Depreciation, Amortization, Net gain (loss) on dispositions, Stock-based compensation and Impairment charges (“Adjusted OIBDA”) Net income (loss) attributable to OUTFRONT Media Inc. to FFO attributable to OUTFRONT Media Inc. and AFFO attributable to OUTFRONT Media Inc., and Revenues to organic revenues.

Analysis of Results of Operations

Revenues

We derive Revenues primarily from providing advertising space to customers on our advertising structures and sites. Our contracts with customers generally cover periods ranging from four weeks to one year. Revenues from billboard displays are recognized as rental income on a straight-line basis over the contract term. Transit and other revenues are recognized over the contract period. (See Note 10. Revenues to the Consolidated Financial Statements.)

(a)Organic revenues exclude revenues associated with a significant acquisition and the impact of foreign currency exchange rates (“non-organic revenues”).

Total revenues increased by $18.6 million, or 4%, and organic revenues increased $18.7 million, or 4%, in the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same prior-year period. Total revenues increased by $40.9 million, or 5%, and organic revenues increased $39.2 million, or 5%, in the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same prior-year period.

In the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, non-organic revenues reflect the impact of a significant acquisition. In the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, non-organic revenues reflect the impact of a significant acquisition and the impact of foreign currency exchange rates.

Total billboard revenues increased $17.6 million, or 5%, in the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same prior-year period, primarily due to an increase in average revenue per display (yield) and the impact of new and lost billboards in the period, including acquisitions. Total billboard revenues increased $40.0 million, or 6%, in the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same prior-year period, primarily due to an increase in average revenue per display (yield), the impact of new and lost billboards in the period, including acquisitions, and higher proceeds from condemnations.

Organic billboard revenues increased $17.5 million, or 5%, in the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same prior-year period, primarily due to an increase in average revenue per display (yield) and the impact of new and lost billboards in the period, including insignificant acquisitions. Organic billboard revenues increased $37.9 million, or 6%, in the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same prior-year period, primarily due to an increase in average revenue per display (yield), the impact of new and lost billboards in the period, including insignificant acquisitions, and higher proceeds from condemnations.

Total transit and other revenues increased $1.0 million, or 1%, in the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same prior-year period, primarily due to the impact of a new transit franchise contract, partially offset by a decrease in average revenue per display (yield), driven by weaker market conditions in national advertising, which primarily impacted advertising sales on certain above-ground advertising displays. Total transit and other revenues increased $0.9 million, or 1%, in the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same prior-year period, primarily due to the impact of a new transit franchise contract, partially offset by a decrease in average revenue per display (yield), driven by weaker market conditions in national advertising, which primarily impacted advertising sales on certain above-ground advertising displays.

Organic transit and other revenues increased $1.2 million, or 1%, in the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same prior-year period, primarily driven by the impact of a new transit franchise contract, partially offset by a decrease in average revenue per display (yield), driven by weaker market conditions in national advertising, which primarily impacted advertising sales on certain above-ground advertising displays. Organic transit and other revenues increased $1.3 million, or 1%, in the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same prior-year period, primarily driven by the impact of a new

transit franchise contract, partially offset by a decrease in average revenue per display (yield), driven by weaker market conditions in national advertising, which primarily impacted advertising sales on certain above-ground advertising displays.

Transit ridership remains materially below pre-COVID-19 pandemic levels in our largest transit markets and while we expect ridership to gradually grow over time, we do not expect ridership to reach pre-COVID-19 pandemic levels during the remaining terms of our current transit agreements. While ridership has increased during 2023 as compared to 2022, the increase in ridership has not led to an increase in overall demand for transit displays.

Billboard property lease expenses represented 35% of billboard revenues in the three months ended June 30, 2023, 32% in the three months ended June 30, 2022, 36% of billboard revenues in the six months ended June 30, 2023, and 34% in the six months ended June 30, 2022. The increase in billboard property lease expenses as a percentage of billboard revenues in the three months ended June 30, 2023, is primarily due to an increase in variable billboard property lease expenses (see Note 5. Leases to the Consolidated Financial Statements), which are primarily attributable to billboard revenue increases in large markets and high profile locations, and the impact of new locations, including through acquisitions. The increase in billboard property lease expenses as a percentage of billboard revenues in the six months ended June 30, 2023, is primarily due to an increase in variable billboard property lease expenses (see Note 5. Leases to the Consolidated Financial Statements), which are primarily attributable to billboard revenue increases in large markets and high profile locations, an out-of-period adjustment of $5.2 million recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2023, related to variable billboard property lease expenses (see Note 1. Description of Business and Basis of Presentation to the Consolidated Financial Statements), and the impact of new locations, including through acquisitions.

Transit franchise expenses represented 70% of transit display revenues in the three months ended June 30, 2023, 68% in the three months ended June 30, 2022, 78% of transit display revenues in the six months ended June 30, 2023, and 73% in the six months ended June 30, 2022. The increases in transit franchise expense, as a percentage of transit display revenues in each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, are primarily driven by higher guaranteed minimum annual payments to the MTA in each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. We expect transit franchise expenses, as a percentage of transit display revenues, to decline in the remainder of 2023, but remain above pre-COVID-19 pandemic levels and above 2022 levels, as a result of our expectation that revenues generated under the MTA Agreement in the remainder of 2023 will not grow at a compound annual growth rate above the inflation-adjusted guaranteed minimum annual payments to the MTA.

Table of Contents

Billboard property lease and transit franchise expenses increased $17.4 million, or 10%, in the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same prior-year period, primarily due to higher variable billboard property lease expenses, the impact of new locations, including through acquisitions, and higher guaranteed minimum annual payments to the MTA. Billboard property lease and transit franchise expenses increased $37.2 million, or 11%, in the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same prior-year period, primarily due to higher variable billboard property lease expenses, including an out-of-period adjustment of $5.2 million recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2023, (see Note 1. Description of Business and Basis of Presentation to the Consolidated Financial Statements), the impact of new locations, including through acquisitions, and higher guaranteed minimum annual payments to the MTA.

Posting, maintenance and other expenses as a percentage of Revenues were 12% in each of the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, and 13% in each of the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. Posting, maintenance and other expenses increased $2.0 million, or 4%, in the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same prior-year period, primarily due to higher taxes and compensation-related expenses. Posting, maintenance and other expenses increased $4.9 million, or 5%, in the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same prior-year period, primarily due to higher taxes, higher maintenance and utilities cost, driven by inflation-driven cost increases in 2023, higher compensation-related expenses and increased activity resulting in higher materials cost, partially offset by lower posting and rotation costs.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses (“SG&A”)

SG&A expenses represented 23% of Revenues in the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to 24% of Revenues in the same prior-year period, and 25% of Revenues in each of the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. SG&A expenses increased $1.7 million, or 2%, in the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same prior-year period, primarily due to the impact of market fluctuations on an unfunded equity-linked retirement plan offered by the Company to certain employees, partially offset by lower compensation-related expenses and the impact of certain cost initiatives undertaken during the quarter. SG&A expenses increased $11.2 million, or 5%, in the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same prior-year period, primarily due to the impact of market fluctuations on an unfunded equity-linked retirement plan offered by the Company to certain employees, higher compensation-related expenses, higher professional fees and higher travel and entertainment expenses. We continue to evaluate methods to lower SG&A expense growth and believe that these expenses will represent a lower percentage of revenues in the remainder of 2023 when compared to the same prior-year period.

Net (Gain) Loss on Dispositions

Net gain on dispositions was $0.1 million in the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to a Net loss on dispositions of $0.2 million the same prior-year period. Net loss on dispositions was $0.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to a Net gain on dispositions of $0.1 million in the same prior-year period.

Impairment Charges

In the three months ended June 30, 2023, we recorded impairment charges of $511.4 million.

As a result of the impairment analysis performed during the second quarter of 2023, we determined that the carrying value of our U.S. Transit and Other reporting unit exceeded its fair value and we recorded an impairment charge of $47.6 million in the Consolidated Statements of Operations, representing the entire goodwill balance associated with the reporting unit. (See the “Critical Accounting Policies” section of this MD&A.)

We also performed an analysis of carrying value of our long-lived asset groups within our U.S. Transit and Other reporting unit as a result of the triggering event noted above utilizing undiscounted cash flows compared to the carrying value of the asset groups. As a result, we recorded an impairment charge of $463.5 million in the second quarter of 2023, primarily representing a $443.1 million impairment charge related to our MTA asset group. (See Note 4. Long-Lived Assets to the Consolidated Financial Statements.)

In addition, we recorded an impairment charge of $0.3 million related to an other-than-temporary decline in fair value of a cost-method investment.

Depreciation

Depreciation increased $0.3 million, or 2%, in the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same prior-year period and increased $1.1 million, or 3%, in the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same prior-year period, primarily due to capital expenditures and acquisitions in 2022.

Table of Contents

Amortization

Amortization increased $4.2 million, or 24%, in the three months ended June 30, 2023, and increased $11.2 million, or 35%, in the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same prior-year periods. The increases were due primarily to higher amortization of leasehold interest intangibles recorded related to asset acquisitions.

Interest Expense, Net

Interest expense, net, was $39.7 million (including $1.8 million of deferred financing costs) in the three months ended June 30, 2023, and $31.6 million (including $1.7 million of deferred financing costs) in the same prior-year period. Interest expense, net, was $77.4 million (including $3.4 million of deferred financing costs) in the six months ended June 30, 2023, and $62.3 million (including $3.3 million of deferred financing costs) in the same prior-year period. The increases were primarily due to higher interest rates and a higher average debt balance.

Benefit (Provision) for Income Taxes

Provision for income taxes decreased $0.8 million, or 67%, in the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same prior-year period, due primarily to changes in taxable income for our U.S. taxable REIT subsidiary (“TRS”). Provision for income taxes was $0.8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to a Benefit for income taxes of $0.9 million in the same prior-year period, due primarily to changes in taxable income for our U.S. TRS and recording a valuation allowance against our U.S. TRS’s deferred tax assets.

Net Income

Net income before allocation to non-controlling interests decreased $526.8 million in the three months ended June 30, 2023, and decreased $555.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same prior-year periods, driven by lower operating income, due primarily to impairment charges and higher interest expense.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted OIBDA

We calculate Adjusted OIBDA as operating income (loss) before depreciation, amortization, net (gain) loss on dispositions, stock-based compensation and impairment charges. We calculate Adjusted OIBDA margin by dividing Adjusted OIBDA by total revenues. Adjusted OIBDA and Adjusted OIBDA margin are among the primary measures we use for managing our business, evaluating our operating performance and planning and forecasting future periods, as each is an important indicator of our operational strength and business performance. Our management believes users of our financial data are best served if the information that is made available to them allows them to align their analysis and evaluation of our operating results along the same lines that our management uses in managing, planning and executing our business strategy. Our management also believes that the presentations of Adjusted OIBDA and Adjusted OIBDA margin, as supplemental measures, are useful in evaluating our business because eliminating certain non-comparable items highlight operational trends in our business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on GAAP financial measures. It is management’s opinion that these supplemental measures provide users of our financial data with an important perspective on our operating performance and also make it easier for users of our financial data to compare our results with other companies that have different financing and capital structures or tax rates.

FFO and AFFO

When used herein, references to “FFO” and “AFFO” mean “FFO attributable to OUTFRONT Media Inc.” and “AFFO attributable to OUTFRONT Media Inc.,” respectively. We calculate FFO in accordance with the definition established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”). FFO reflects net income (loss) attributable to OUTFRONT Media Inc. adjusted to exclude gains and losses from the sale of real estate assets, impairment charges, depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, amortization of direct lease acquisition costs and the same adjustments for our equity-based investments and non-controlling interests, as well as the related income tax effect of adjustments, as applicable. We calculate AFFO as FFO adjusted to include cash paid for direct lease acquisition costs as such costs are generally amortized over a period ranging from four weeks to one year and therefore are incurred on a regular basis. AFFO also includes cash paid for maintenance capital expenditures since these are routine uses of cash that are necessary for our operations. In addition, AFFO excludes certain non-cash items, including non-real estate depreciation and amortization, impairment charges on non-real estate assets, stock-based compensation expense, accretion expense, the non-cash effect of straight-line rent, amortization of deferred

Table of Contents

financing costs and the same adjustments for our non-controlling interests, along with the non-cash portion of income taxes, and the related income tax effect of adjustments, as applicable. We use FFO and AFFO measures for managing our business and for planning and forecasting future periods, and each is an important indicator of our operational strength and business performance, especially compared to other REITs. Our management believes users of our financial data are best served if the information that is made available to them allows them to align their analysis and evaluation of our operating results along the same lines that our management uses in managing, planning and executing our business strategy. Our management also believes that the presentations of FFO and AFFO, as supplemental measures, are useful in evaluating our business because adjusting results to reflect items that have more bearing on the operating performance of REITs highlight trends in our business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on GAAP financial measures. It is management’s opinion that these supplemental measures provide users of our financial data with an important perspective on our operating performance and also make it easier to compare our results to other companies in our industry, as well as to REITs.

Since Adjusted OIBDA, Adjusted OIBDA margin, FFO and AFFO are not measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, they should not be considered in isolation of, or as a substitute for, operating income (loss), net income (loss) attributable to OUTFRONT Media Inc., and revenues, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, as indicators of operating performance. These measures, as we calculate them, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies. In addition, these measures do not necessarily represent funds available for discretionary use and are not necessarily a measure of our ability to fund our cash needs.

FFO attributable to OUTFRONT Media Inc. in the three months ended June 30, 2023, was a deficit of $59.8 million compared to FFO attributable to OUTFRONT Media Inc. of $92.4 million in the same prior-year period, due primarily to impairment charges on non-real estate assets and higher interest expense. FFO attributable to OUTFRONT Media Inc. in the six months ended June 30, 2023, was a deficit of $42.7 million compared to FFO attributable to OUTFRONT Media Inc. of $134.2 million in the same prior-year period, due primarily to impairment charges on non-real estate assets, higher interest expense and lower Adjusted OIBDA. AFFO attributable to OUTFRONT Media Inc. decreased $15.2 million, or 16%, in the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same prior-year period, due primarily to higher interest expense and lower Adjusted OIBDA. AFFO attributable to OUTFRONT Media Inc. decreased $41.9 million, or 33%, in the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same prior-year period, due primarily to higher interest expense, lower Adjusted OIBDA, the impact of direct lease acquisition costs and higher maintenance capital expenditures.

(a)Organic revenues exclude revenues associated with a significant acquisition (“non-organic revenues”).

Total U.S. Media segment revenues increased $20.5 million, or 5%, in the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same prior-year period, due primarily to higher billboard revenues. Total U.S. Media segment revenues increased $42.7 million, or 5%, in the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same prior-year period, due primarily to higher billboard revenues. We generated approximately 42% in each of the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, 41% in the six months ended June 30, 2023, and 42% in the six months ended June 30, 2022, of our U.S. Media segment revenues from national advertising campaigns.

In the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, non-organic revenues reflect the impact of a significant acquisition.

Billboard revenues in the U.S. Media segment increased $20.1 million, or 6%, in the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same prior-year period, reflecting an increase in average revenue per display (yield) and the impact of new and lost billboards in the period, including acquisitions. Billboard revenues in the U.S. Media segment increased $42.8 million, or 7%, in the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same prior-year period, reflecting an increase in average revenue per display (yield), the impact of new and lost billboards in the period, including acquisitions, and higher proceeds from condemnations.

Organic billboard revenues in the U.S. Media segment increased $18.7 million, or 6%, in the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same prior-year period, primarily due to an increase in average revenue per display (yield) and the impact of new and lost billboards in the period, including insignificant acquisitions. Organic billboard revenues in the U.S. Media segment increased $38.5 million, or 6%, in the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same prior-year period, primarily due to an increase in average revenue per display (yield), the impact of new and lost billboards in the period, including insignificant acquisitions, and higher proceeds from condemnations.

Transit and other revenues in the U.S. Media segment increased $0.4 million in the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same prior-year period, primarily driven by the impact of a new transit franchise contract. Transit and other revenues in the U.S. Media segment decreased $0.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same prior-year period, primarily driven by a decrease in average revenue per display (yield), driven by weaker market conditions in national advertising, which primarily impacted advertising sales on certain above-ground advertising displays, partially offset by the impact of a new transit franchise contract.

Organic transit and other revenues in the U.S. Media segment increased $0.4 million in the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same prior-year period, primarily driven by the impact of a new transit franchise contract, partially offset by a decrease in average revenue per display (yield). Organic transit and other revenues in the U.S. Media segment decreased $0.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same prior-year period, primarily driven by a decrease in average revenue per display (yield), driven by weaker market conditions in national advertising, which primarily impacted advertising sales on certain above-ground advertising displays, partially offset by the impact of a new transit franchise contract.

Operating expenses in the U.S. Media segment increased $20.3 million, or 10%, in the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same prior-year period, primarily driven by higher variable billboard property lease expenses, the impact of new locations, including through acquisitions, higher guaranteed minimum annual payments to the MTA, higher taxes and higher compensation-related expenses. Operating expenses in the U.S. Media segment increased $43.5 million, or 11%, in the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same prior-year period, primarily driven by higher variable billboard property lease expenses, including an out-of-period adjustment of $5.2 million recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2023, (see Note 1. Description of Business and Basis of Presentation to the Consolidated Financial Statements), higher guaranteed minimum annual payments to the MTA, higher taxes, higher maintenance and utilities cost, higher taxes, higher maintenance and utilities cost, driven by inflation-driven cost increases in 2023, higher compensation-related expenses, and increased activity resulting in higher materials cost, partially offset by lower posting and rotation costs.

SG&A expenses in the U.S. Media segment increased $1.3 million, or 2%, in the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same prior-year period, primarily driven by higher compensation-related expenses, partially offset by a lower provision for doubtful accounts. SG&A expenses in the U.S. Media segment increased $8.3 million, or 5%, in the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same prior-year period, primarily driven by higher compensation-related expenses, higher professional fees and higher travel and entertainment expenses.

In the three months ended June 30, 2023, we recorded impairment charges of $511.4 million in the U.S. Media segment, primarily related to impairment charges related to our MTA asset group and our U.S. Transit and Other reporting unit (see the “Critical Accounting Policies” section of this MD&A and Note 4. Long-Lived Assets to the Consolidated Financial Statements).

U.S. Media segment Adjusted OIBDA decreased $1.1 million, or 1%, in the three months ended June 30, 2023, and decreased $9.1 million, or 4%, in the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same prior-year periods. Adjusted OIBDA margin was 29% in the three months ended June 30, 2023, 31% in the three months ended June 30, 2022, 24% in the six months ended June 30, 2023, and 27% in the six months ended June 30, 2022. The decreases in Adjusted OIBDA margins was due primarily to a higher increase in operating expenses, due to an increase in billboard property lease expenses, including an out-of-period adjustment of $5.2 million recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2023, related to variable billboard property lease expenses (see Note 1. Description of Business and Basis of Presentation to the Consolidated Financial Statements), increases in the MTA guaranteed minimum annual payments in 2023 and an increase in SG&A expenses, compared to a lower increase in revenues.

Corporate

Corporate expenses primarily include expenses associated with employees who provide centralized services. Corporate expenses, excluding stock-based compensation, were $12.6 million in the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $11.7 million in the same prior-year period. Corporate expenses, excluding stock-based compensation, were $25.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $22.2 million in the same prior-year period. The increases were primarily due to the impact of market fluctuations on an unfunded equity-linked retirement plan offered by the Company to certain employees, partially offset by lower compensation-related expenses.

We continually project anticipated cash requirements for our operating, investing and financing needs as well as cash flows generated from operating activities available to meet these needs. Due to seasonal advertising patterns and influences on advertising markets, our revenues and operating income are typically highest in the fourth quarter, during the holiday shopping season, and lowest in the first quarter, as advertisers adjust their spending following the holiday shopping season. Further, certain of our municipal transit contracts require guaranteed minimum annual payments to be paid on a monthly or quarterly basis, as applicable.

Our short-term cash requirements primarily include payments for operating leases, guaranteed minimum annual payments, interest, capital expenditures, equipment deployment costs and dividends. Funding for short-term cash needs will come primarily from our cash on hand, operating cash flows, our ability to issue debt and equity securities, and borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility (as defined below), the AR Facility (as defined below) or other credit facilities that we may establish, to the extent available.

In addition, as part of our growth strategy, we frequently evaluate strategic opportunities to acquire new businesses, assets or digital technology. Consistent with this strategy, we regularly evaluate potential acquisitions, ranging from small transactions to larger acquisitions, which transactions could be funded through cash on hand, additional borrowings, equity or other securities, or some combination thereof.

Table of Contents

Our long-term cash needs include principal payments on outstanding indebtedness and commitments related to operating leases and franchise and other agreements, including any related guaranteed minimum annual payments, and equipment deployment costs. Funding for long-term cash needs will come from our cash on hand, operating cash flows, our ability to issue debt and equity securities, and borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility or other credit facilities that we may establish, to the extent available.

Although we have taken several actions to date to preserve our financial flexibility and increase our liquidity, our short-term and long-term cash needs and related funding capability may be adversely affected by the current heightened levels of inflation and related economic environment if cash on hand and operating cash flows decrease in 2023, and our ability to issue debt and equity securities and/or borrow under our existing or new credit facilities on reasonable pricing terms, or at all, may become uncertain. (See the “Overview” section of this MD&A.)

Working capital was a deficit of $269.8 million as of June 30, 2023, compared to a deficit of $161.2 million as of December 31, 2022, primarily driven by increased borrowings under the AR Facility, lower receivable balances, and increased short-term operating lease liabilities.

Under the current MTA agreement, which was amended in June 2020 and July 2021 and is subject to modification as agreed-upon by us and the MTA (as amended, the “MTA Agreement”):

•Recoupment of Equipment Deployment Costs. We may retain incremental revenues that exceed an annual base revenue amount for the cost of deploying advertising and communications displays throughout the transit system. As presented in the table below, recoupable MTA equipment deployment costs are recorded as Prepaid MTA equipment deployment costs and Intangible assets on our Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, and as these costs are recouped from incremental revenues that the MTA would otherwise be entitled to receive, Prepaid MTA equipment deployment costs will be reduced. If incremental revenues generated over the term of the agreement are not sufficient to cover all or a portion of the equipment deployment costs, the costs will not be recouped, which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations, including impairment charges (see Note 4. Long-Lived Assets to the Consolidated Financial Statements). If we do not recoup all costs of deploying advertising and communications screens with respect to the New Inventory by the end of the term of the MTA Agreement, the MTA will be obligated to reimburse us for these costs. Deployment costs in an amount not to exceed $50.7 million, which are deemed authorized before December 31, 2020, will be paid directly by the MTA. For any deployment costs deemed authorized after December 31, 2020, the MTA and the Company will no longer be obligated to directly pay 70% and 30% of the costs, respectively, and these costs will be subject to recoupment in accordance with the MTA Agreement. We did not recoup any equipment deployment costs in the six months ended June 30, 2023, and we do not expect to recoup any equipment deployment costs in the remainder of 2023. In addition, we currently do not expect to recoup any equipment deployment costs throughout the remainder of the Amended Term (as defined below) of the MTA Agreement. For the full year of 2023, we expect our MTA equipment deployment costs to be approximately $50.0 million to $60.0 million. We expect our MTA equipment deployment costs to be approximately $95.00 million in the aggregate over the next 18 months, with approximately $30.0 million to $40.0 million to be spent in the remainder of 2023 and approximately $50.0 million to $60.0 million to be spent in 2024. After 2024, we expect MTA equipment deployment costs to be approximately $30.0 million to $40.0 million annually throughout the remainder of the Amended Term (as defined below) of the MTA Agreement and encompass replacement costs. Accordingly, we expect annual MTA equipment deployment costs after 2024 to be significantly below 2023 levels as we expect to substantially complete our initial deployment during 2024.

Year”), the MTA is entitled to receive an additional payment equal to 2.5% of the annual base revenue amount for such year calculated in accordance with the MTA Agreement, provided that gross revenues in such year (i) were at least equal to the gross revenues generated in the Recoupment Year, and (ii) did not decline by more than 5% from the prior year.

We may utilize cash on hand and/or incremental third-party financing to fund equipment deployment costs over the next couple of years. However, given the current heightened levels of inflation and related economic environment, we cannot reasonably estimate the aggregate financing amount, if any, at this time. As of June 30, 2023, we have issued surety bonds in favor of the MTA totaling approximately $136.0 million, which amount is subject to change as equipment installations are completed and revenues are generated. We expect transit franchise expenses, as a percentage of transit display revenues, to decline in the remainder of 2023, but remain above pre-COVID-19 pandemic levels and above 2022 levels, as a result of our expectation that revenues generated under the MTA Agreement in the remainder of 2023 will not grow at a compound annual growth rate above the inflation-adjusted guaranteed minimum annual payments to the MTA. As indicated in the table below, we incurred $20.6 million related to MTA equipment deployment costs in the six months ended June 30, 2023 (which includes equipment deployment costs related to future deployments), for a total of $556.5 million to date, of which $33.9 million had been recouped from incremental revenues to date. As of June 30, 2023, 16,758 digital displays had been installed, composed of 5,135 digital advertising screens on subway and train platforms and entrances, 6,952 smaller-format digital advertising screens on rolling stock and 4,671 MTA communications displays. In the three months ended June 30, 2023, 1,558 installations occurred, for a total of 2,605 installations occurring in the six months ended June 30, 2023.

Accounts Receivable Securitization Facility

As of June 30, 2023, we have a $150.0 million revolving accounts receivable securitization facility (the “AR Facility”), which terminates in May 2025, unless further extended.

In connection with the AR Facility, Outfront Media LLC and Outfront Media Outernet Inc., each a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and certain of the Company’s TRSs (the “Originators”), will sell and/or contribute their respective existing and future accounts receivable and certain related assets to either Outfront Media Receivables LLC, a special purpose vehicle and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company relating to the Company’s qualified REIT subsidiary accounts receivable assets (the “QRS SPV”) or Outfront Media Receivables TRS, LLC a special purpose vehicle and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company relating to the Company’s TRS accounts receivable assets (the “TRS SPV” and together with the QRS SPV, the “SPVs”). The SPVs may transfer undivided interests in their respective accounts receivable assets to certain purchasers from time to time (the “Purchasers”). The SPVs are separate legal entities with their own separate creditors who will be entitled to access the SPVs’ assets before the assets become available to the Company. Accordingly, the SPVs’ assets are not available to pay creditors of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, although collections from the receivables in excess of amounts required to repay the Purchasers and other creditors of the SPVs may be remitted to the Company. Outfront Media LLC will service the accounts receivables on behalf of the SPVs for a fee. The Company has agreed to guarantee the performance of the Originators and Outfront Media LLC, in its capacity as servicer, of their respective obligations under the agreements governing the AR Facility. Neither the Company, the Originators nor the SPVs guarantee the collectability of the receivables under the AR Facility. Further, the TRS SPV and the QRS SPV are jointly and severally liable for their respective obligations under the agreements governing the AR Facility.

Series A Preferred Stock Issuance

On April 20, 2020, we issued 400,000 shares of our Series A Convertible Perpetual Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock”), par value $0.01 per share. The Series A Preferred Stock ranks senior to the shares of the Company’s common stock with respect to dividend and distribution rights. Holders of the Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to a cumulative dividend accruing at the initial rate of 7.0% per year, payable quarterly in arrears, subject to increases as set forth in the Articles Supplementary, effective as of April 20, 2020 (the “Articles”). Dividends may, at the option of the Company, be paid in cash, in-kind, through the issuance of additional shares of Series A Preferred Stock or a combination of cash and in-kind, until April 20, 2028, after which time dividends will be payable solely in cash. So long as any shares of Series A Preferred Stock remain outstanding, the Company may not, without the consent of a specified percentage of holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock, declare a dividend on, or make any distributions relating to, capital stock that ranks junior to, or on a parity basis with, the Series A Preferred Stock, subject to certain exceptions, including but not limited to (i) any dividend or distribution in cash or capital stock of the Company on or in respect of the capital stock of the Company to the extent that such dividend or distribution is necessary to maintain the Company’s status as a REIT; and (ii) any dividend or distribution in cash in respect of our common stock that, together with the dividends or distributions during the 12-month period immediately preceding such dividend or distribution, is not in excess of 5% of the aggregate dividends or distributions paid by the Company necessary to maintain its REIT status during such 12-month period. If any dividends or distributions in respect of the shares of our common stock are paid in cash, the shares of Series A Preferred Stock will participate in the dividends or distributions on an as-converted basis up to the amount of their accrued dividend for such quarter, which amounts will reduce the dividends payable on the shares of Series A Preferred Stock dollar-for-dollar for such quarter. The Series A Preferred Stock is convertible at the option of any holder at any time into shares of our common stock at an initial conversion price of $16.00 per share and an initial conversion rate of 62.50 shares of our common stock per share of Series A Preferred Stock, subject to certain anti-dilution adjustments and a share cap as set forth in the Articles. Subject to certain conditions set forth in the Articles (including a change of control), each of the Company and the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock may convert or redeem the Series A Preferred Stock at the prices set forth in the Articles, plus any accrued and unpaid dividends.

Cash provided by operating activities decreased $13.4 million, or 13%, in the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same prior-year period, due primarily to lower net income in 2023 compared to 2022, due to increased operating and SG&A expenses, and higher interest expense, as well as the timing of payments, partially offset by a decrease in prepaid MTA equipment deployment costs. In the six months ended June 30, 2023, we paid net cash of $21.3 million related to MTA equipment deployment costs and installed 2,605 digital displays. In the six months ended June 30, 2022, we paid net cash of $44.5 million related to MTA equipment deployment costs and installed 2,069 digital displays.

Cash used for investing activities decreased $222.9 million, or 76%, in the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same prior-year period, due primarily to lower cash paid for acquisitions.

The following table presents our capital expenditures in the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.


	Six Months Ended
	June 30,				%
(in millions, except percentages)	2023		2022		Change
Growth	$	28.4	$	30.4	(7)	%
Maintenance	16.5		11.4		45
Total capital expenditures	$	44.9	$	41.8	7

Capital expenditures increased $3.1 million, or 7%, in the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same prior-year period, primarily due to the timing of payments related to growth in digital displays and maintenance spending for billboard display upgrades, and higher spending related to the renovation of certain office facilities.

For the full year of 2023, we expect our capital expenditures to be approximately $80.0 million to $85.0 million, which will be used primarily for growth in digital displays, the renovation of certain office facilities, software and technology, maintenance, and safety-related projects. This estimate does not include equipment deployment costs that will be incurred in connection with the MTA Agreement (as described above).

Cash used for financing activities decreased $99.5 million, or 87%, in the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same prior-year period. In the six months ended June 30, 2023, we drew $105.0 million of borrowings on the AR Facility and paid total cash dividends of $103.7 million on our common stock, the Series A Preferred Stock and vested restricted share units granted to employees. In the six months ended June 30, 2022, we paid total cash dividends of $102.9 million on our common stock, the Series A Preferred Stock and vested restricted share units granted to employees.

Cash paid for income taxes was $5.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2023 and $2.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022. The increase was primarily due to the timing of payments related to Canada.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Our off-balance sheet commitments primarily consist of guaranteed minimum annual payments. (See Note 16. Commitments and Contingencies to the Consolidated Financial Statements for information about our off-balance sheet commitments.)

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of our financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate these estimates, which are based on historical experience and on various assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, including the impact of events such as the COVID-19 pandemic and the current heightened levels of inflation. The result of these evaluations forms the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the reported amount of revenues and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions.

MTA Agreement

Under the current MTA Agreement, which is subject to modification as agreed-upon by us and the MTA, we are obligated to deploy, over a number of years, (i) 5,433 digital advertising screens on subway and train platforms and entrances, (ii) 15,896 smaller-format digital advertising screens on rolling stock, and (iii) 9,283 MTA communications displays. In addition, we are entitled to generate revenue through the sale of advertising on transit advertising displays and incur transit franchise expenses, which are calculated based on contractually stipulated percentages of revenue generated under the contract, subject to a minimum guarantee.

Title of the various digital displays transfers to the MTA on installation, therefore the cost of deploying these screens throughout the transit system does not represent our property and equipment. The portion of recoupable MTA equipment deployment costs expected to be reimbursed from transit franchise fees that would otherwise be payable to the MTA are recorded as Prepaid MTA equipment deployment costs on the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position and charged to operating expenses as advertising revenue is generated. The short-term portion of Prepaid MTA equipment deployment costs represents the costs that we expect to recover from the MTA in the next twelve months. The portion of deployment costs expected to be reimbursed from advertising revenues that would otherwise be retained by us under the contract are recorded as Intangible assets on the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position and charged to amortization expense on a straight-line basis over the contract period. We assess the recoverability of the MTA contract on an as-needed basis and apply significant judgment in assessing factors to determine if there is an indication that the revenues expected to be generated over the term of the agreement will be sufficient to cover all or a portion of the equipment deployment costs, including evaluating macroeconomic conditions, product demand, industry trends, and events specific to the Company, including monitoring the Company’s actual installation of digital displays against the deployment schedule. Additionally, we assess these factors by comparing revenue projections of the deployed digital displays to actual financial results.

If we do not generate sufficient advertising revenues from the MTA contract, there is a risk that the related Prepaid MTA equipment deployment costs and Intangible assets may not be recoverable. Management assesses the prepaid MTA equipment deployment costs for recoverability on a quarterly basis. This assessment requires evaluating qualitative and quantitative factors to determine if there is an indication that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Management applies significant judgment in assessing these factors, including evaluating macroeconomic conditions, product demand, industry trends, and events specific to the Company, including monitoring the Company’s actual installation of digital displays against the initial deployment schedule.

Additionally, management assesses quantitative factors by comparing revenue projections of the deployed digital displays to actual financial results. In 2022, we updated our projections and did not identify a triggering event for an impairment review of our Prepaid MTA equipment deployment costs. The projections utilized for 2022 assumed the continued recovery of transit ridership and revenues towards pre-COVID-19 levels and expected growth in revenue generation from our significant digital deployment throughout the MTA transit system as required by the MTA Agreement. By the end of the first half of 2023, it was determined that our MTA transit revenue recovery had stalled since our MTA transit revenue did not meet our revenue expectations, and as of June 30, 2023, our revenue pacing and outlook for the remainder of 2023 reflects a continued decline in MTA transit revenues as compared to our 2023 forecast due to the underperformance across the MTA transit system. Accordingly, we updated our revenue projections to reflect no growth in 2023 followed by 5% to 10% growth throughout the remainder of the Amended Term of the MTA Agreement. As a result of the reduced revenue forecast and reduced time remaining on the Amended Term of the MTA Agreement, we currently do not expect to recoup any Prepaid MTA equipment deployment costs throughout the remainder of the Amended Term of the MTA Agreement. As a result, we reclassified $385.0 million of Prepaid MTA equipment deployment costs to Intangible Assets. We then reviewed our MTA long-lived asset group to determine if there was a triggering event for impairment, noting that we currently project negative aggregate cash flows of approximately $50.0 million through the remainder of the Amended Term of the MTA Agreement. Consequently, we have recorded an impairment charge of $443.1 million, representing all of our MTA long-lived asset group.

Table of Contents

All future deployment costs spending will be recorded as Intangible assets until such time as we project to recoup spending from transit franchise fees that would otherwise be payable to the MTA, which we currently do not expect throughout the remainder of the Amended Term of the MTA Agreement. Even if we do not recoup our spending from transit franchise fees that would otherwise be payable to the MTA, our current projections are that the MTA Agreement will be cash flow neutral (i.e., Adjusted OIBDA related to the MTA Agreement will equal MTA equipment deployment costs) over the remaining Amended Term of the MTA Agreement beginning during 2024. We will assess these equipment deployment costs for impairment each period. Currently, future impairment charges (i) are expected to be required during the remainder of 2023 with respect to all or a portion of the up to approximately $30.0 million to $40.0 million of MTA equipment deployment costs we expect to spend in the remainder of 2023, (ii) may be required during 2024 with respect to all or a portion of the up to approximately $50.0 million to $60.0 million of MTA equipment deployment costs we expect to spend in 2024, and (iii) may be required beyond 2024 with respect to all or a portion of the additional MTA equipment deployment costs we will be required to incur under the MTA Agreement, in each case, to the extent we continue to project cash flow losses throughout the remainder of the Amended Term of the MTA Agreement based on the assumptions and estimates described in this section and/or other factors that may arise.

We performed a sensitivity analysis on our MTA transit revenue assumptions, noting that a change in our annual revenue growth rate of 1% between 2024 and 2030, holding all other assumptions constant except for variable sales compensation, would result in an approximately $70.0 million aggregate change in estimated cash flows. The assumptions and estimates included in our analysis require significant judgment about future events, market conditions and financial performance. Actual results may differ from our assumptions. There can be no assurance that these estimates and assumptions will prove to be an accurate prediction of the future, and a downward revision of these estimates and/or assumptions would decrease our cash flows, which could result in additional impairment charges in the future.

Goodwill

We test goodwill qualitatively and/or quantitatively at the reporting-unit level annually for impairment as of October 31 of each year and between annual tests if events occur or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value below its carrying amount. A qualitative test assesses macroeconomic conditions, industry and market conditions, cost factors, overall financial performance and other relevant entity specific events, as well as events affecting a reporting unit. If after the qualitative assessment, we determined that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, we perform a quantitative assessment. We may also choose to only perform a quantitative assessment. We compute the estimated fair value of each reporting unit for which we perform a quantitative assessment by using an income approach. Under the income approach, the fair value is determined using a discounted cash flow model. Our discounted cash flow value is calculated by adding the present value of the estimated annual cash flows over a discrete projection period to the terminal value, which represents the value of the projected cash flows beyond the discrete projection period. Our discounted cash flow model requires us to use significant estimates and assumptions such as projected revenue growth rates, terminal growth rates, billboard lease and transit franchise expenses, other operating and selling, general and administrative expenses, capital expenditures, contract renewals and extensions, and discount rates. The estimated growth rates, operating margins and capital expenditures for the projection period are based on our internal forecasts of future performance as well as historical trends. The terminal value is estimated based on a perpetual nominal growth rate, which is based on projected long-range inflation and long-term industry projections. The discount rates represent the weighted average cost of capital derived using known and estimated market metrics.

The estimated fair value of the U.S. Transit and Other reporting unit exceeded its carrying value by 28% as of December 31, 2022, based on our goodwill impairment assessment in the prior year. The projections utilized for 2022 assumed the continued recovery of transit ridership and revenues towards pre-COVID-19 levels and expected revenue generation from our significant digital deployment in the MTA and other transit systems. By the end of the first half of 2023, it was determined that our transit revenue recovery had stalled since our U.S. Transit and Other reporting unit did not meet revenue expectations, and as of June 30, 2023, our pacing and outlook for the remainder of 2023 reflects a continued decline in transit revenues as compared to our 2023 forecast due to the underperformance across our transit business, including the MTA transit system. As a result, we determined that there was a triggering event requiring an interim goodwill impairment analysis of our U.S. Transit and Other reporting unit.

Our current discounted cash flow model assumptions and estimates with respect to revenues in our U.S. Transit and Other reporting unit is currently projected to slightly decline in 2023 before growing in the mid-single digits in 2024, high single digits in 2025-2026 and then trending back to a mid-single digit growth rate thereafter. We believe this growth will be driven by expected revenue generation from increased demand for transit digital displays due to additional rolling stock digital deployment in the MTA transit system and additional digital deployment in other transit systems, product enhancements to our transit digital display and related assets, and a gradual increase in transit ridership over the remaining terms of our transit franchise agreements. Additionally, we are currently no longer assuming that we will exercise the five-year extension to the

Table of Contents

Amended Term of the MTA Agreement due to our lowered revenue growth assumptions and currently contractually required increase to the minimum annual guarantee payments to the MTA during the extension period. Other than with respect to the MTA Agreement, we are assuming that we will be able to renew our significant transit franchise agreements.

As of June 30, 2023, the goodwill balances associated with the U.S. Billboard reporting unit was $2,006.4 million and the Canada reporting unit was $22.9 million.

The assumptions and estimates included in our analysis require significant judgment about future events, market conditions and financial performance. Actual results may differ from our assumptions. There can be no assurance that these estimates and assumptions will prove to be an accurate prediction of the future, and a downward revision of these estimates and/or assumptions would decrease the fair values of our reporting units, which could result in additional impairment charges in the future.

You should understand that it is not possible to predict or identify all such factors. Consequently, you should not consider any such list to be a complete set of all potential risks or uncertainties.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

We are exposed to market risk related to commodity prices and foreign currency exchange rates, and to a limited extent, interest rates and credit risks.

Commodity Price Risk

We incur various operating costs that are subject to price risk caused by volatility in underlying commodity values. Commodity price risk is present in electricity costs associated with powering our digital billboard displays and lighting our traditional static billboard displays at night.

We do not currently use derivatives or other financial instruments to mitigate our exposure to commodity price risk. However, we do enter into contracts with commodity providers to limit our exposure to commodity price fluctuations. For the year ended December 31, 2022, such contracts accounted for 6.2% of our total utility costs. As of June 30, 2023, we had active electricity purchase agreements with fixed contract rates for locations in Illinois, New York and Texas, which expire at various dates through May 2025.

Table of Contents

Foreign Exchange Risk

Foreign currency translation risk is the risk that exchange rate gains or losses arise from translating our Canadian business’s statements of earnings and statements of financial position from functional currency to our reporting currency (the U.S. Dollar) for consolidation purposes. Any gain or loss on translation is included within comprehensive income and Accumulated other comprehensive income on our Consolidated Statement of Financial Position. The functional currency of our international subsidiaries is their respective local currency. As of June 30, 2023, we have $6.3 million of unrecognized foreign currency translation losses included within Accumulated other comprehensive loss on our Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.

Substantially all of our transactions at our Canadian subsidiary are denominated in their local functional currency, thereby reducing our risk of foreign currency transaction gains or losses.

We do not currently use derivatives or other financial instruments to mitigate foreign currency risk, although we may do so in the future.

Interest Rate Risk

We are subject to interest rate risk to the extent we have variable-rate debt outstanding including under the Senior Credit Facilities and the AR Facility.

As of June 30, 2023, we had a $600.0 million variable-rate Term Loan due 2026 outstanding, which has an interest rate of 6.9% per year. An increase or decrease of 1/4% in our interest rate on the Term Loan will change our annualized interest expense by approximately $1.5 million.

As of June 30, 2023, there were $135.0 million of outstanding borrowings under the AR Facility, at a borrowing rate of 6.2%. An increase or decrease of 1/4% in our interest rate on the AR Facility will change our annualized interest expense by approximately $0.3 million.

We are not currently using derivatives or other financial instruments to mitigate interest rate risk, although we may do so in the future.

Credit Risk

In the opinion of our management, credit risk is limited due to the large number of customers and advertising agencies utilized. We perform credit evaluations on our customers and agencies and believe that the allowances for credit losses are adequate. We do not currently use derivatives or other financial instruments to mitigate credit risk.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As required by Rule 13a-15(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), our management has carried out an evaluation, under the supervision of and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report, were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act, during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that have materially affected, or that are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Table of Contents

Limitations on Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures and Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.
