SAGA COMMUNICATIONS, INC. (Exact Name of Registrant As Specified in Its Charter)
2017 Annual Report 2017 Annual Letter To our fellow shareholders: Every now and then I am introduced to someone who knows, kind of, who I am and what I do and they instinctively ask, ‘‘How are things at Saga?’’ (they pronounce it ‘‘say-gah’’). I am polite and correct their pronunciation (‘‘sah-gah’’) as I am proud of the word and its history. This is usually followed by, ‘‘What is a ‘‘sah-gah?’’ My response is that there are several definitions — a common one from 1857 deems a ‘‘Saga’’ as ‘‘a long, convoluted story.’’ The second one that we prefer is ‘‘an ongoing adventure.’’ That’s what we are. Next they ask, ‘‘What do you do there?’’ (pause, pause). I, too, pause, as by saying my title doesn’t really tell what I do or what Saga does. In essence, I tell them that I am in charge of the wellness of the Company and overseer and polisher of the multiple brands of radio stations that we have. Then comes the question, ‘‘Radio stations are brands?’’ ‘‘Yes,’’ I respond. ‘‘A consistent allusion can become a brand. Each and every one of our radio stations has a created personality that requires ongoing care. That is one of the things that differentiates us from other radio companies.’’ We really care about the identity, ambiance, and mission of each and every station that belongs to Saga. We have radio stations that have been on the air for close to 100 years and we have radio stations that have been created just months ago. -

SAGA COMMUNICATIONS, INC. (Exact Name of Registrant As Specified in Its Charter)
2016 Annual Report 2016 Annual Letter To our fellow shareholders: Well…. here we go. This letter is supposed to be my turn to tell you about Saga, but this year is a little different because it involves other people telling you about Saga. The following is a letter sent to the staff at WNOR FM 99 in Norfolk, Virginia. Directly or indirectly, I have been a part of this station for 35+ years. Let me continue this train of thought for a moment or two longer. Saga, through its stockholders, owns WHMP AM and WRSI FM in Northampton, Massachusetts. Let me share an experience that recently occurred there. Our General Manager, Dave Musante, learned about a local grocery/deli called Serio’s that has operated in Northampton for over 70 years. The 3rd generation matriarch had passed over a year ago and her son and daughter were having some difficulties with the store. Dave’s staff came up with the idea of a ‘‘cash mob’’ and went on the air asking people in the community to go to Serio’s from 3 to 5PM on Wednesday and ‘‘buy something.’’ That’s it. Zero dollars to our station. It wasn’t for our benefit. Community outpouring was ‘‘just overwhelming and inspiring’’ and the owner was emotionally overwhelmed by the community outreach. As Dave Musante said in his letter to me, ‘‘It was the right thing to do.’’ Even the local newspaper (and local newspapers never recognize radio) made the story front page above the fold. Permit me to do one or two more examples and then we will get down to business. -

March 1, 2017 Dear Sens. Warren and Markey, and Reps. Neal
March 1, 2017 Dear Sens. Warren and Markey, and Reps. Neal, McGovern, Tsongas, Kennedy, Clark, Moulton, Capuano, Lynch, and Keating: As local television and radio broadcast stations across Massachusetts, we write in support of the ongoing congressional effort to reform the nation’s tax code. In particular, we appreciate and support the current House Blueprint’s preservation of tax deductibility of advertising as part of its thoughtful effort to stimulate economic growth. As Congress considers the House Blueprint and other tax reform proposals, we urge you to recognize that any modification to the current tax treatment of advertising poses significant economic harm to our local advertising partners and, by extension, our investment in local news, weather, sports, civic information, and service in the local communities you represent. For over a century, Congress has treated advertising as a fully deductible cost of doing business because, just like salaries, rent, utilities, and office supplies, it is an ordinary and necessary business expense. As you consider potential reforms to our nation’s tax system, we support your efforts to simplify the code, strengthen the economy, and make America more competitive. Importantly though, any limitations to the full, first-year deductibility of advertising will only have the opposite effects of making the tax code more complicated, slowing an engine of economic growth and job creation, and undermining the U.S. advertising and broadcasting economy that is the envy of the world. Advertising accounts for more than $172 billion of economic activity, and more than 634,000 Massachusetts jobs. Moreover, for every dollar spent on advertising, an additional $19 of economic activity is generated.
