Audacy Issues Performance Update as it Awaits FCC Approval
Audacy releases a performance update as it waits to emerge from Chapter 11 reorganization saying it “is pleased to report a strong start to 2024, driving significant sequential acceleration across key financial metrics and performance indicators. The Company is providing this update to deliver additional visibility on its progress since receiving court approval of its consensual pre-packaged Plan of Reorganization on February 20.” Audacy awaits FCC approval to complete its restructuring and plans to file its 2023 10-K later this month.
