Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On May 8, 2018, Gray Television, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release reporting its financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2018 (the “Release”), and furnished the Release as Exhibit 99.1 to a Current Report on Form 8-K (the “Original Form 8-K”). Subsequent to the issuance of the Release and the furnishing of the Original Form 8-K to the SEC, the Company identified a typographical error in a component of the presented non-GAAP term “Free Cash Flow” (as defined in the Release) for the three months ended March 31, 2018 that also resulted in an error in the calculation of Free Cash Flow for that period. This Current Report on Form 8-K/A is being furnished to correct such information.
As reported in the Release, the $8.451 million component of Free Cash Flow titled “Income taxes paid, net of refunds” for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was identified as a benefit and added to the non-GAAP term “Broadcast Cash Flow Less Cash Corporate Expenses” (as defined in the Release), resulting in the Company reporting in the Release Free Cash Flow for the three months ended March 31, 2018 of $49.298 million. As corrected herein, the amount of such component should have been deducted from Broadcast Cash Flow Less Cash Corporate Expenses, resulting in Free Cash Flow of $32.396 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018.
Set forth below is the tabular and related information originally contained in the Release, as corrected by the information set forth above:
