  • NEWS RELEASE Gray Television's Stations Help to Raise Over $12.6
    NEWS RELEASE Gray Television’s Stations Help to Raise Over $12.6 Million for Local Relief Efforts in March and April Atlanta, Georgia – May 5, 2020. Gray Television, Inc. (“Gray”) (NYSE: GTN) announced today that, during March and April 2020 alone, our television stations collectively helped to raise more than $12,600,000 in donations benefiting local residents and local organizations in need. The efforts included a wide variety of telethons, on-air and online fundraisers, musical concerts, and other events lasting from one hour to a few weeks. Many of the stations launched their campaigns after learning about the difficulties that local food banks and other worthy charities were experiencing as public health concerns resulted in the cancelation or curtailment of their normal fundraising activities, just as they experienced dramatic increases in need for their services. Some of the stations’ fundraising efforts involved local advertising partners and/or other local broadcasters who also chose to use their resources to give back in these difficult times. In addition, Gray stations have worked very hard to support local businesses during the public health emergency. In early April, Gray’s stations launched interactive, online local business directories to enable residents to find which businesses remained open - and their new hours. The directories also allow online visitors to place orders directly through the site for pickup or delivery, obtain coupons, and even apply for jobs. By the end of April, more than 14,500 local businesses joined the online directories (all for free) across Gray’s markets. “Local broadcast stations are important local institutions employing talented residents who put community service first, through news, information, and support for local organizations and businesses,” said Gray Executive Chairman and CEO Hilton H.

  • Two of Its Wholly Owned Subsidiaries, CNHI, LLC and Purecars Automotive, LLC
    NEWS RELEASE GRAY COMPLETES ACQUISITION OF RAYCOM MEDIA AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS Atlanta, Georgia – January 2, 2019. Gray Television, Inc. (“Gray,” “we,” or “our”) (NYSE: GTN) announced today that it has consummated its transformative transaction with Raycom Media, Inc. (“Raycom”). Earlier today, Gray completed its acquisition of Raycom (the “Raycom Merger”). In connection with the Raycom Merger, Gray and Raycom completed the divestitures of nine television stations in overlap markets consistent with the parties’ June 25, 2018, joint announcement of their merger. These station divestitures satisfy the conditions placed on the merger by the Antitrust Division of the U.S. Department of Justice and the Federal Communications Commission. In addition, immediately prior to the Gray/Raycom closing, Raycom completed the spin-offs to its shareholders of two of its wholly owned subsidiaries, CNHI, LLC and PureCars Automotive, LLC. Gray’s acquisition of Raycom completes Gray’s transformation from a small, regional broadcaster to a leading media company with nationwide scale based on high-quality stations with exceptional talent in attractive markets. By combining these two great companies, Gray now owns the first or second highest rated television station in 85 markets, according to Comscore’s audience measurement data between December 2017 and November 2018. In total, Gray owns and/or operates television stations and leading digital properties in 91 television markets from Alaska and Hawaii to Maine and Florida. Collectively, these television stations broadcast almost 400 separate programming streams, including nearly 150 affiliates of the CBS/NBC/ABC/FOX networks. Upon the closing, Hilton Howell became Gray’s Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, and Pat LaPlatney, formerly Raycom’s President and Chief Executive Officer, became Gray’s President and Co-Chief Executive Officer.
