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. -

(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. -
Issue 566 Spring Blooms for Country Spring Diary Results Blossomed with Dozens of Country Stations at the Top of Their Markets
September 5, 2017, Issue 566 Spring Blooms For Country Spring Diary results blossomed with dozens of Country stations at the top of their markets. We asked several of these ratings win- ners what ingredients went into their secret sauce for spring. WXBQ/Johnson City, TN: PD Bill Hagy begins, “I had to look it up. It is 92 books in-a-row at No. 1 – a point of pride [over] a lot of years and attention to details.” Hagy notes every daypart and demo stays stable year-in and year-out except for the 18-34 cell he describes as “more of a yoyo.” He adds, “That demo came back very strong this Spring, more than a 10-point jump to 32 shares.” The annual spring NASCAR race landed at the beginning of the book and “generates a lot of enthusiasm” in the market. Numbers have remained strong in mornings for host Steve Stroud since Mark Andrews Dragon Around: MCA’s Sam Hunt and friends at the University of Alabama Birmingham. Pictured (l-r) are Country Aircheck’s Bill Hagy left in October. “We’ve talked to a number Paul Williams, Hunt, ESPN’s Marty Smith and Red Light’s of applicants but haven’t found the right Chuck Swaney. partner,” says Hagy, who spends one day a week at the station – usually a 10- to 12-hour marathon – since his “retirement” after 50 years at the helm (CAT 3/4/15). Sam Hunt Goes Long KCLR/Columbia, MO: A heritage airstaff MCA’s Sam Hunt returned to the University of Alabama that has “made an emotional connection with Birmingham, where he played quarterback, to celebrate the re- the audience” is one of the keys for Zimmer’s launch of the school’s football program after a two-year hiatus. -

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. -
