(1.5) (1.1) (0.8) LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS To our shareholders: From the vantage point of spring 2017, I can see behind us a year when our television division delivered record revenue, driven by more than $100 million of political advertising revenue and a 50 percent increase in fees we receive from cable and satellite operators who include our TV stations in their packages. From this same vantage point, I can see ahead to a year when local broadcasters’ optimism already has been lifted by the promised tailwinds of the advancement of next-gen television transmission standard ATSC 3.0 as well as further increases in the value of our content as represented by rising rates for the retransmission of our stations. At Scripps, 2017 also brings the promise of new leadership. After nearly 18 years as a member of the senior leadership team here at Scripps — including nine as CEO — I will retire from the role of president and CEO later this year, retaining the job of chairman of the board.

  • KFDI Wins National Murrow Award for Breaking News Category
    KFDI wins National Murrow Award for breaking news category June 20, 2017 WICHITA, Kan. — Radio station 101.3 Today’s KFDI (KFDI-FM), owned by The E.W. Scripps Company (NYSE: SSP), won a National Edward R. Murrow Award in the “Breaking News” category. The Radio Television Digital News Association (RTDNA) announced the honor on Tuesday. The station received the honor in the small market radio division. “This is a significant recognition for the KFDI radio news team and our second national Murrow Award in as many years,” said Justin Case, operations manager of KFDI-FM. “Our ability to provide urgent information to our community in a breaking news situation is at the core of what we do and it is truly rewarding to receive recognition of our efforts from the RTDNA.” The winning entry came from the station’s coverage of a workplace shooting in Hesston, Kansas, on Feb. 25, 2016. The entry featured first reports of the shooting, live coverage and eyewitness accounts from the scene. The winning entry is available here. The Murrow Awards recognize outstanding work produced by radio, television and online news organizations around the world. The RTDNA received nearly 4,300 entries during the 2017 awards season. The national awards are presented at the RTDNA Edward R. Murrow Awards Gala in New York City on Oct. 9. KFDI-FM s one of five Scripps radio stations serving the Wichita market. The other stations are 104.5 The Fox (KFXJ-FM), Radio Lobo 106.5 (KYQQ-FM), Classic County AM 1070 (KFTI-AM) and T-95 (KICT-FM).

  • Scripps to Sell Its Last Group of Radio Stations to Summitmedia for $47 Million
    Scripps to sell its last group of radio stations to SummitMedia for $47 million Aug. 15, 2018 CINCINNATI – The E.W. Scripps Company (NASDAQ: SSP) has reached an agreement to sell its last group of 19 radio stations in four markets to SummitMedia LLC for $47 million. This is the fourth and final transaction in the sale of Scripps’ radio assets. SummitMedia LLC is purchasing: • KFDI (101.3 FM), KICT (95.1 FM), KFXJ (104.5 FM), KYQQ (106.5 FM) and KFTI (1070 AM) in Wichita, Kansas; • KTTS (94.7 FM), KSPW (96.5 FM), KSGF (104.1 FM and 1260 AM) and KRVI (106.7 FM) in Springfield, Missouri; • KEZO (92.3 FM), KSRZ (104.5 FM), KQCH (94.1 FM), KKCD (105.9 FM) and ESPN station KXSP (590 AM) in Omaha, Nebraska; and • WWST (102.1 FM), WCYQ (100.3 FM), WKHT (104.5 FM) and WNOX (931. FM) in Knoxville, Tennessee. The transaction is expected to close in the fourth quarter. The sales of Scripps’ radio stations total $83.5 million, and the group’s 2017 segment profit was $11.6 million. The company announced in January its intent to sell its portfolio of 34 radio stations in eight markets. Scripps already had announced the sale of five radio stations in Tulsa, Oklahoma, to Griffin Communications; two Milwaukee-based radio stations to Good Karma Brands; and eight stations in Boise, Idaho, and Tucson, Arizona, to Lotus Communications Corp. “SummitMedia’s focus on growth in the radio industry make it a good home for these stations,” said Adam Symson, Scripps president and CEO.
