STATEMENTS

LBI Media, Inc. was incorporated in California as LBI Holdings II, Inc. and is a wholly owned subsidiary of LBI Media Holdings, Inc. (LBI Media Holdings). LBI Media Holdings is a wholly owned subsidiary of LBI Holdings I, Inc. (the “Parent”). Pursuant to an Assignment and Exchange Agreement dated September 29, 2003 between the Parent and LBI Media Holdings, the Parent assigned to LBI Media Holdings all of its right, title and interest in 100 shares of common stock of LBI Media, Inc. (LBI Media) (constituting all of the outstanding shares of LBI Media) in exchange for 100 shares of common stock of LBI Media Holdings. Thus, upon consummation of the exchange, LBI Media became a wholly owned subsidiary of LBI Media Holdings. LBI Media is a holding company with substantially no assets, operations or cash flows other than its investment in its subsidiaries.

LBI Media and its wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the “Company”) own and operate radio and television stations located in California and Texas. In addition, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Empire Burbank Studios, Inc. (Empire), owns a television studio facility that is primarily used to produce programming for Company-owned television stations. Portions of this facility are also leased to independent third parties. The Company sells commercial airtime on its radio and television stations to local and national advertisers. In addition, the Company has entered into time brokerage agreements with third parties for three of its radio stations.

The Company’s KHJ-AM, KVNR-AM, KWIZ-FM, KBUE-FM, KBUA-FM and KEBN-FM radio stations service the Los Angeles, California market, while its KQUE-AM, KJOJ-AM, KSEV-AM, KEYH-AM, KJOJ-FM, KTJM-FM, KQQK-FM, KIOX-FM and KXGJ-FM radio stations service the Houston, Texas market.

The Company’s television stations, KRCA, KZJL, KMPX and KSDX, service the Los Angeles, California, Houston, Texas, Dallas Fort-Worth, Texas and San Diego, California markets, respectively.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year. The condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s December 31, 2003 consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K (the “Annual Report”). All terms used but not defined elsewhere herein have the meanings ascribed to them in the Annual Report.

STATEMENTS

The balance sheet at December 31, 2003 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements.

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of LBI Media and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany amounts and transactions have been eliminated. The accounts of LBI Media Holdings and the Parent, including certain indebtedness (see Note 4), are not included in the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements.

In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FIN No. 46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” (FIN 46). FIN 46 requires certain variable interest entities to be consolidated by the primary beneficiary of the entity if the equity investors in the entity do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties. The provisions of FIN 46 became effective immediately for all arrangements entered into after January 31, 2003. For arrangements entered into with variable interest entities created prior to January 31, 2003, the provisions of FIN 46 become effective for the first interim or annual period ending after March 15, 2004. The Company adopted the provisions of FIN 46 in the first quarter of 2004, however such adoption has not had an impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

The Company accounts for its broadcast licenses in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” (SFAS 142). The Company believes its broadcast licenses have indefinite useful lives given they are expected to indefinitely contribute to the future cash flows of the Company and that they may be continually renewed without substantial cost to the Company. As such, in accordance with SFAS 142, the broadcast licenses are reviewed for impairment at least annually.

The carrying value of broadcast licenses is evaluated periodically in relation to the operating performance and anticipated future cash flows of the underlying radio and television stations for indicators of impairment. If indicators of impairment are identified and the discounted cash flows estimated to be generated from these assets are less than the carrying value, an adjustment to reduce the carrying value to the fair market value of the assets would be recorded, if necessary. The fair value of the Company’s broadcast licenses is determined using the discounted cash flow approach. This approach requires the projection of future cash flows and the restatement of these cash flows into their present valuation equivalent through the use of a discount rate. No adjustments to the carrying amounts of broadcast licenses for impairment were made during the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2004.

STATEMENTS

Accumulated amortization of broadcast licenses totaled approximately $17,696,000 at December 31, 2003 and March 31, 2004.

Long-term debt consists of the following (not including the debt of LBI Media Holdings or the Parent – see discussion below):

In July 1999, Empire Burbank Studios, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, issued an installment note payable to a bank for $3.25 million (the “Empire Note”), which bears interest at the rate of 8.13% per annum. The Empire Note is payable in monthly principal and interest payments of $31,530 through maturity in August 2014. The borrowings under the Empire Note are secured by substantially all of the Empire assets.

On July 9, 2002, LBI Media issued $150.0 million of Senior Subordinated Notes due 2012 (the “Senior Subordinated Notes”) and entered into a new $160.0 million senior revolving credit facility (the “2002 Revolver”). The proceeds of the Senior Subordinated Notes and 2002 Revolver were used to repay LBI Media’s former senior credit facility and senior notes.

The Senior Subordinated Notes bear interest at the rate of 10 1/8% per annum, and interest payments are to be made on a semi-annual basis each January 15 and July 15. LBI Media is a holding company that has no independent assets or operations, other than its investment in its subsidiaries. All of LBI Media’s subsidiaries are wholly owned and have provided full and unconditional joint and several guarantees of the Senior Subordinated Notes. The indenture governing the Senior Subordinated Notes contains certain restrictive covenants that, among other things, limit the Company’s ability to borrow under the 2002 Revolver. The Company may borrow up to $150.0 million under the 2002 Revolver without restrictions, but any amount over $150.0 million will be subject to the Company’s compliance with a specified leverage ratio (as defined in the indenture governing the Senior Subordinated Notes). The indenture also limits the Company’s ability to pay dividends.

Amounts available under the 2002 Revolver will begin decreasing quarterly, commencing on June 30, 2005, and continuing until maturity on September 30, 2009. Borrowings under the 2002 Revolver bear interest at the election of the Company, based on
