Jefferson Street, #203 Bloomington, Illinois 61701 PH: (309) 828-6071 FAX: (309) 827-2465 www.mckcpa.com INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT WGLT-FM Radio Bloomington, Illinois We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the business-type activities of WGLT-FM Radio (a public telecommunications entity operated by Illinois State University) as of and for the years ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, and the related notes to the financial statements, as listed in the table of contents. Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. Auditor’s Responsibility Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion. - 1 - Opinion In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the business-type activities of WGLT-FM Radio as of June 30, 2019 and 2018, and the changes in financial position and cash flows thereof for the years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Other Matters Required Supplementary Information Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the required supplementary information listed in the table of contents be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such information, although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board, who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical context. We have applied certain limited procedures to the required supplementary information in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which consisted of inquiries of management about the methods of preparing the information and comparing the information for consistency with management’s responses to our inquiries, the basic financial statements, and other knowledge we obtained during our audits of the basic financial statements. We do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the information because the limited procedures do not provide us with sufficient evidence to express an opinion or provide any assurance. Other Information Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the financial statements that collectively comprise WGLT-FM Radio’s basic financial statements. The statements of functional expenses are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements. The statements of functional expenses are the responsibility of management and were derived from and relate directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements. Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements or to the basic financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, the statements of functional expenses are fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the basic financial statements as a whole. Prior Period Financial Statements The financial statements as of June 30, 2018 were audited by Sulaski & Webb, CPAs, who merged with MCK CPAs & Advisors as of November 1, 2018, and whose report dated January 9, 2019, expressed an unmodified opinion on those statements. MCK CPAs & Advisors Bloomington, IL February 12, 2020 - 2 - WGLT PUBLIC STATION (A Licensee of Illinois State University) MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS For the Year Ended June 30, 2019 Introduction and Reporting Entity The following discussion and analysis is an overview of the financial position and activities of WGLT public radio station for the year ended June 30, 2019. Management of the station has prepared the following discussion, and it should be read with the financial statements and related footnotes which follow this section. WGLT is licensed to Illinois State University, an instrumentality of the State of Illinois, which is governed by a Board of Trustees, all of whom are appointed by the Governor and ratified by the Legislature, plus the President of Illinois State University. The station’s primary function is to provide noncommercial educational, news, and information audio programming and website content to the citizens of Central Illinois. From a main transmitter in Bloomington/Normal, with a translator in Peoria, the radio signal reaches an estimated 300,000 population; out of that number approximately 20,000-25,000 listen each week. Contributing membership consists of approximately 1,600 households. WGLT’s format is primarily news and information, with music and other specialty programming on weekends. WGLT’s identifying and positioning statement is “89-1 WGLT and WGLT.org, Bloomington-Normal’s Public Media.” WGLT employs a full-time professional staff, content production, development, management, and support staff, with several paid and unpaid content and support positions available for Illinois State students. WGLT has provided an Internet stream of its on-air programming since 2000, and also offers a separate 24/7 music streaming service called “Highway 309”, which features both old and contemporary rates based music, including blues, folk, Americana, jazz, rock, soul, and gospel. WGLT continues to increase its text, photo, and audio news and feature reporting offerings, including several podcasts (including a new daily news roundup, The Leadoff, which launched in April 2019), on its own website (wglt.org) as well as on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. As a result of changes in consumer behavior and more emphasis on digital products, engagement on social media and WGLT.org has increased substantially, with monthly unique visitors averaging between 4-6 times higher than three years ago. Since FY 2004, locally generated funding (including annual listener support, local business underwriting, and net income from station events and fundraising activities) has equaled approximately 50% of the annual cash income, give or take small year-to-year variances. In April of 2019, Illinois State University entered into an agreement with Bradley University for WGLT to manage day-to-day operations of WCBU, which is licensed to Bradley and serves the Peoria community. That agreement took effect on June 1, 2019, and calls for WCBU to maintain its own local on-air staff and some fundraising

Most analyses of public radio listening examine the performance of individual stations within this large mix, the contributions of specific national programs, or aggregate numbers for the system as a whole. This report takes a different approach. Through an extensive, multi-year study of 228 stations that generate about 80% of public radio’s audience, we review patterns of listening to groups of stations categorized by the formats that they present. We find that stations that pursue different format strategies – news, classical, jazz, AAA, and the principal combinations of these – have experienced significantly different patterns of audience growth in recent years and important differences in key audience behaviors such as loyalty and time spent listening. This quantitative study complements qualitative research that the Station Resource Group, in partnership with Public Radio Program Directors, and others have pursued on the values and benefits listeners perceive in different formats and format combinations. Key findings of The Public Radio Format Study include: • In a time of relentless news cycles and a near abandonment of news by many commercial stations, public radio’s news and information stations have seen a 55% increase in their average audience from Spring 1999 to Fall 2004.
