Business We are a 144-year-old media enterprise with interests in local and national media brands. Founded in 1878, our motto is "Give light and the people will find their own way." Our mission is to do well by doing good — creating value for customers, employees and owners by informing, engaging and empowering those we serve. We serve audiences and businesses in our Local Media division through a portfolio of 61 local television stations in 41 markets. Our local stations have programming agreements with ABC, NBC, CBS, FOX and the CW. In our Scripps Networks division, we operate nine national news and entertainment networks - ION, Bounce, Court TV, Defy TV, Grit, ION Mystery, Laff, Scripps News and TrueReal – each reaches well over 90% of U.S. television households over-the-air. Effective the beginning of 2023, we merged our nationally focused news resources into a Scripps News division. Scripps News combines the development and distribution of Newsy programming content, the Local Media national desk and our award-winning investigative reporting newsroom in Washington, D.C. into one coordinated organization. The combined operation will more efficiently serve national audiences and our local television stations. We also serve as the longtime steward of one of the nation's largest, most successful and longest-running educational programs, the Scripps National Spelling Bee. Additionally, we provide consumers DVR product solutions to watch and record free over-the-air HDTV on connected devices through our Nuvyyo business. For a full listing of our outlets, visit http://www.scripps.com. In December of 2022, we launched our Scripps Sports division to further leverage our local market depth and national broadcast reach for partnerships with sports leagues, conferences and teams. In addition to the market depth of our 61 local television stations, ION boasts the fifth-largest national broadcast viewership and its network of owned and operated and affiliate stations reaches 100% of U.S. television households through broadcast, cable/satellite and connected TV platforms, providing it the opportunity to run localized, regionalized and national programming. Our sports division will be comprised of a limited number of personnel that will seek and negotiate sports rights for the benefit of our Local Media and Scripps Networks businesses. The revenues earned and any sports rights fees or other direct expenses incurred will reside within those respective businesses. Scripps is a leader in free, ad-supported television. All of our local stations and national networks reach consumers over- the-air, and all of our television brands can also be found on free streaming platforms. During 2022, we continued to expand in the fast-growing connected television marketplace, as well as continued to leverage our leadership position in the growing over- the-air marketplace. Currently, one in three non pay-TV homes is watching television over the air alongside their subscription services, and industry data shows the use of free television over antenna is expected to surpass 50 million households in 2025. Scripps has launched a major national consumer marketing campaign to broaden antenna use even more, as well as working with key partners in retail, manufacturing and antenna installation, to help television owners understand the quality and quantity of programming available over the air and the ease of antenna use. In January of 2023, we announced a strategic restructuring and reorganization of the Company that will further leverage our strong position in the U.S. television ecosystem and propel our growth across new distribution platforms and emerging media marketplaces. Lisa Knutson was named chief operating officer, assuming responsibility for the Local Media and Scripps Networks operating divisions, and was tasked with leading the Company’s restructuring efforts. The restructuring aims to create a leaner and more agile operating structure through the centralization of certain services and the consolidation of layers of management across our operating businesses and corporate office. Financial information for each of our business segments can be found under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of this Form 10-K. 4 LOCAL MEDIA Our Local Media segment is comprised of our 61 local broadcast television stations and their related digital operations. We have operated broadcast television stations since 1947, when we launched Ohio’s first television station, WEWS, in Cleveland. Our television station group reaches approximately 25% of the nation’s television households and includes 18 ABC affiliates, 11 NBC affiliates, nine CBS affiliates and four FOX affiliates. We also have 12 CW affiliates - four on full power stations and eight on multicast; five independent stations and 10 additional low power stations. We produce high-quality news, information and entertainment content that informs and engages our local communities. We distribute our content on multiple platforms, including broadcast, digital, mobile, social and over-the-top ("OTT"). It is our objective to develop content and applications designed to enhance the user experience on each of those platforms. Our ability to cover our communities across various digital platforms allows us to expand our audiences beyond traditional broadcast television. We believe the most critical component of our product mix is compelling news content, which is an important link to the community and aids our stations' efforts to retain and expand viewership. We have trained employees in our news departments to be multi-media journalists, allowing us to pursue a “hyper-local” strategy by having more reporters covering local news for our over-the-air and digital platforms. In addition to news programming, our television stations run network programming, syndicated programming and original programming. Our strategy is to balance syndicated programming with original programming that we control. We believe this strategy improves our Local Media division's financial performance. Original shows we produce ourselves or in partnership with others include: • The List, an Emmy-award winning infotainment show, is available in 39 markets reaching viewers in approximately 26% of the country. • The Race is a weekly 30-minute show that focuses on the issues impacting Americans. We travel to communities across the country to talk about jobs, health care, inflation and more. No pundits, politicians or pollsters, just people. The show is available in 47 markets on broadcast and OTT and airs on Scripps News OTA every Sunday morning. • RightThisMinute was a daily entertainment program featuring consumer-generated viral videos. The show completed its 11-year run when the final season ended in September 2022. Revenue cycles and sources Core Advertising Our core advertising is comprised of sales to local and national customers. The advertising includes a combination of broadcast spots, as well as digital and OTT advertising. Our core advertising revenues accounted for 42% of our Local Media segment’s revenues in 2022. Pricing of broadcast spot advertising is based on audience size and share, the demographics of our audiences and the demand for our limited inventory of commercial time. Our stations compete for advertising revenues with other sources of local media, including competitors’ television stations in the same markets, radio stations, cable television systems, newspapers, digital platforms and direct mail. Local advertising time is sold by each station’s local sales staff who call upon advertising agencies and local businesses, which typically include advertisers such as car dealerships, health-care facilities and other service providers. We seek to attract new advertisers to our television stations and to increase the amount of advertising sold to existing local advertisers by relying on experienced local sales forces with strong community ties, producing news and other programming with local advertising appeal and sponsoring or promoting local events and activities. National advertising time is generally sold through national sales representative firms that call upon advertising agencies, whose clients typically include automobile manufacturers and dealer groups, telecommunications companies and insurance providers. Digital revenues are primarily generated from the sale of advertising to local and national customers on our local television websites, smartphone apps, tablet apps and other platforms. Cyclical factors influence revenues from our core advertising categories. Some of the cycles are periodic and known well in advance, such as election campaign seasons and special programming events (e.g. the Olympics or the Super Bowl). For 5 example, our NBC affiliates benefit from incremental advertising demand from the coverage of the Olympics. Economic cycles are less predictable and beyond our control. Due to increased demand in the spring and holiday seasons, the second and fourth quarters normally have higher advertising revenues than the first and third quarters. Political Advertising Political advertising is generally sold through our Washington D.C. sales office. Advertising is sold to presidential, gubernatorial, Senate and House of Representative candidates, as well as for state races and local issues. It is also sold to political action groups (PACs) or other advocacy groups. Political advertising revenues were 13% of our Local Media segment's revenues in 2022. Political advertising revenues increase significantly during even-numbered years when local, state and federal elections occur. In addition, every four years, political spending is typically elevated further due to the advertising for the presidential election. Because of the cyclical nature of each political election cycle, there has been a significant difference in our operating results when comparing the performance in even-numbered years to that in odd-numbered years. Additionally, our operating results are impacted by the number, importance and competitiveness of individual political races and issues discussed in our local markets. Distribution Revenues We earn revenues from cable operators, satellite carriers, other multi-channel video programming distributors (collectively "MVPDs"), other online video distributors and subscribers for access rights to our broadcast signals. Distribution revenues were 44% of our Local Media segment's revenues in 2022. These arrangements are generally governed by multi-year contracts and the fees we receive are typically based on the number of subscribers the respective distributor has and the contracted rate per subscriber. Approximately 75% of subscribers within our retransmission consent agreements are subject to negotiation in 2023. Expenses Employee costs accounted for 38% of our Local Media segment's costs and expenses in 2022. We centralize certain functions, such as master control, traffic, graphics, research and political advertising, at company- owned hubs that do not require a presence in the local markets. This approach enables each of our stations to focus local resources on the creation of content and revenue-producing activities. We expect to continue to look for opportunities to centralize functions that do not require a local market presence. Programming costs, which include network affiliation fees, syndicated programming and shows produced for us or in partnership with others, were 43% of our Local Media segment's costs and expenses in 2022. Our network-affiliated stations broadcast programming that is supplied to us by the networks in various dayparts. Under each affiliation agreement, the station broadcasts all of the programs transmitted by the network. In exchange, we pay affiliation fees to the network and the network sells a substantial majority of the advertising time during these broadcasts.

(2) Application for renewal of the license was submitted timely to the FCC. Under FCC rules, the license expiration date is automatically extended pending FCC review of and action on the renewal application. Historically, we have been successful in renewing our FCC licenses. 7 Federal Regulation of Broadcasting — Broadcast television is subject to the jurisdiction of the FCC pursuant to the Communications Act of 1934, as amended (“Communications Act”). The Communications Act prohibits the operation of broadcast stations except in accordance with a license issued by the FCC and empowers the FCC to revoke, modify and renew broadcast licenses, approve the transfer of control of any entity holding such a license, determine the location of stations, regulate the equipment used by stations and adopt and enforce necessary regulations. As part of its obligation to ensure that broadcast licensees serve the public interest, the FCC exercises limited authority over broadcast programming by, among other things, requiring certain children's television programming and limiting commercial content therein, requiring the identification of program sponsors, including specific rules related to identifying programming sponsored or provided by foreign governments, regulating the sale of political advertising and the distribution of emergency information, and restricting indecent programming. The FCC also requires television broadcasters to close caption their programming for the benefit of persons with hearing impairment and to ensure that any of their programming that is later transmitted via the Internet is captioned. Network- affiliated television broadcasters in larger markets must also offer audio narration of certain programming for the benefit of persons with visual impairments. Reference should be made to the Communications Act, the FCC’s rules and regulations, and the FCC’s public notices and published decisions for a fuller description of the FCC’s extensive regulation of broadcasting. Broadcast licenses are granted for a term of up to eight years and are renewable upon request, subject to FCC review of the licensee's performance. While there can be no assurance regarding the renewal of our broadcast licenses, we have never had a license revoked, have never been denied a renewal, and all previous renewals have been for the maximum term. FCC regulations govern the ownership of television stations, and the agency is required by statute to periodically review these rules. In November 2017, the FCC adopted significant changes to its local television ownership rules. Those rules were vacated by a reviewing court in late 2019 but reinstated by the Supreme Court in early 2021. One of these changes was the relaxation of the television “duopoly rule” to allow ownership of two television stations in the same market as long as at least one of the stations is not among the “top-four” rated stations in the market, as measured at the time an application to acquire the second station is filed. Acquisition of two “top-four” stations in the same market is allowed only pursuant to waiver. In addition to upholding changes to the duopoly rule, the United States Supreme Court also affirmed the FCC’s elimination of its newspaper/broadcast cross-ownership rule, its radio/television cross-ownership rule, and its determination that stations in joint advertising sales agreements should not be treated as if they were under common ownership. With respect to national television ownership, the FCC voted in December 2017 to consider whether and how it might revisit its rule preventing applicants from obtaining an ownership interest in television stations whose total national audience reach would exceed 39% of all television households. Earlier in that year, the FCC also reinstated the 50% discount applied to the number of households deemed covered by UHF television stations. Scripps' current national audience reach is 38.0% of television households after application of the “UHF discount.” In December 2018, the FCC began another of its statutorily required reviews of its multiple ownership rule, including a broad review of whether all the current local radio and television rules continue to serve the public interest. This proceeding remains open, and the FCC in 2021 requested that parties refresh the record in that proceeding, although the FCC has not proposed any specific rule changes. The Communications Act requires the FCC to conduct such a review every four years, and as such the FCC opened a new proceeding in December 2022 requesting that parties update the record and submit comments on the broadcast ownership rules and the media marketplace. We cannot predict the outcome of these open proceedings, the expected court reviews of any changes to the FCC's television ownership rules, or the effect of further FCC rule revisions on our stations' operations or our business. The restrictions imposed by the FCC’s ownership rules may apply to a corporate licensee due to the ownership interests of its officers, directors or significant shareholders. If such parties meet the FCC’s criteria for holding an attributable interest in the licensee, they are likewise expected to comply with the ownership limits, as well as other licensee requirements such as compliance with certain criminal, antitrust and antidiscrimination laws. In order to provide additional spectrum for mobile broadband and other services, the FCC in 2017 conducted an incentive spectrum auction in which some television broadcasters agreed to voluntarily give up spectrum in return for a share of the auction proceeds. No Scripps station went off-air or relinquished a UHF-band allocation for a VHF-band allocation as a result of the auction, but many of Scripps' full-power, Class A, and low-power and translator stations relocated to new channels in the reduced broadcast spectrum band. All Scripps stations completed this transition timely. Broadcasters are continuing to deploy a new voluntary digital television standard, ATSC 3.0. This Internet-protocol based transmission method permits television stations to offer enhanced and innovative services coupled with much improved 8 broadcast signal reception, particularly by mobile devices. The new standard, however, is incompatible with both existing television receivers and with a station’s ability to continue offering its service via the current ATSC 1.0 digital standard. To avoid loss of service to those viewers who lack a new receiver, stations switching to ATSC 3.0 transmission are required to arrange for a local station that continues to use the current 1.0 standard to air (on a subchannel) programming “substantially similar” to that offered by the switching station on its 3.0 channel. In return, the 3.0 station could host the 3.0 signal of its 1.0 “host” station. This “simulcasting” requirement will sunset in July 2023, unless extended by the FCC. Scripps stations in several markets are operating with the new transmission protocol. The FCC remains committed to permitting non-broadcast spectrum use in the “white spaces” between television stations' protected service areas despite broadcasters’ concerns about the possibility of harmful interference to their existing service and to the potential for innovative uses of their broadcast spectrum in the future. In 2015, the FCC proposed to reserve a 6 MHz “vacant channel” in each market for non-broadcast, unlicensed services (including wireless microphones) which, if adopted, would have further reduced the spectrum available for television broadcasting. The reservation of spectrum in the “broadcast” band for interference-protected non-broadcast services could have had a particularly adverse effect on the ability of low-power and translator television stations to offer service since these stations enjoy only “secondary” status that offers no protection from interference caused by a full-power station. In late 2020, the FCC declined to adopt its own vacant channel proposal, although petitions for reconsideration of this decision remain pending. We cannot predict the outcome of these proceedings or their possible impact on the Company. In 2022, Congress passed the Low Power Protection Act, which directs the FCC to adopt rules that will allow certain low- power television stations to apply for “Class A” regulatory status, which will provide those stations with increased protection from interference. While certain low power television stations owned by the Company may qualify for this status, the FCC has not yet adopted rules implementing the Low Power Protection Act and we cannot predict the outcome of those proceedings or their possible impact on the Company. Full-power broadcast television stations generally enjoy “must-carry” rights on any cable television system defined as “local” with respect to the station. Stations may waive their must-carry rights and instead negotiate retransmission consent agreements with local cable companies. Similarly, satellite video providers are required to carry the signal of those television stations that request carriage and that are located in markets in which the satellite carrier chooses to retransmit at least one local station. Satellite video providers may not carry a broadcast station without its consent. For stations that do not elect mandatory carriage, FCC rules most recently revised in 2020 require parties to negotiate in “good faith” for retransmission consent agreements, and the FCC has imposed significant fines on parties who have been found to have violated these requirements. The Company has elected to negotiate retransmission consent agreements with cable operators and satellite video providers for the majority of both our network-affiliated stations and our independent stations. Prior to the Company’s 2021 acquisition of ION, only two Scripps stations had elected “must-carry” status, but all acquired ION stations rely on “must carry” to ensure carriage. Other proceedings before the FCC and the courts have reexamined the policies that protect television stations' rights to control the distribution of their programming within their local service areas. For example, the FCC in 2014 initiated a rulemaking proceeding on the degree to which an entity relying upon the Internet to deliver video programming should be subject to the regulations that apply to multi-channel video programming distributors (“MVPDs”), such as cable operators and satellite systems. While the major broadcast networks secured a victory in their lawsuit against the streaming service Locast, with the court finding that its retransmission of local television stations’ signals without their consent violated copyright law, the application of copyright law to other potential streaming services remains uncertain. We cannot predict the outcome of any FCC initiatives to address the use of new technologies to challenge traditional means of redistributing television broadcast programming or their possible impact on the Company. The FCC may impose substantial penalties for violations of its rules and policies. While uncertainty continues regarding the scope of the FCC's authority to regulate indecent programming, the agency has increased its enforcement efforts regarding other programming issues such as sponsorship identification, broadcasting improper emergency alerts and extending service to persons with disabilities. We cannot predict the effect of the FCC’s expanded enforcement efforts on the Company. 9 SCRIPPS NETWORKS Our Scripps Networks segment is comprised of nine national television networks - ION, Bounce, Court TV, Defy TV, Grit, ION Mystery, Laff, Scripps News and TrueReal. The networks reach nearly every U.S. television home through free over- the-air ("OTA") broadcast, cable/satellite, connected TV and digital distribution. The segment generates revenue principally from the sale of advertising time on the national television networks. Advertising revenue generated by our networks depends on viewership ratings and advertising rates paid by advertisers for delivery of advertisements to certain viewer demographics. Advertising revenue is sold in the upfront, scatter (together called general market), direct response and connected TV markets. In the upfront market, advertisers buy advertising time for upcoming seasons and, by committing to purchase in advance, lock in the advertising rates they will pay for the upcoming year. In the scatter market, advertisers buy their spots closer to the time when the spots will run. The mix of upfront and scatter market advertising time sold is based upon the economic conditions at the time the sales take place, impacting the sell-out levels management is willing or able to obtain. The demand in the scatter market then impacts the pricing achieved for our remaining general market advertising inventory. Scatter market pricing can vary from upfront pricing and can be volatile. In most cases, advertising sales in the upfront and scatter markets are subject to ratings guarantees that require us to provide additional advertising time if the guaranteed audience levels are not achieved. Similar to the scatter market, direct response advertisers buy their spots closer to the time when the spots will run and pricing can vary based on demand. Direct response advertisers buy spots based on expected performance, giving advertisers an efficient and measured way to reach their customers. Direct response advertising is not subject to ratings guarantees. Revenue from advertising is subject to seasonality, market-based variations and general economic conditions. Due to increased demand in the spring and holiday seasons, the second and fourth quarters normally have higher advertising revenues than the first and third quarters. Programming expenses, employee costs and sales and marketing expenses are the primary operating costs of our Scripps Networks segment. Programming expenses accounted for 53% of our Scripps Networks segment's costs and expenses in 2022, reflecting both the costs of investing in quality programming and costs of distribution from carriage agreements with local television broadcasters and cable and satellite providers. The national networks are carried on both our owned and operated television stations and from carriage agreements with other broadcast stations. Our OTA television networks are well- positioned to capitalize on cord-cutting trends and provide a platform for delivering mass audiences to national advertisers. ION Our ION national television network reaches around 80 million domestic homes through its 44 owned and operated OTA broadcast TV stations, on pay TV platforms and independent broadcast affiliates that carry the ION programming. ION broadcasts popular scripted crime and justice procedural programming and has the fifth-largest average prime-time audience among all broadcast networks on television. ION elects government-mandated must-carry provisions, thereby ensuring its programming is available on cable and satellite systems. In 2022, ION was launched as a free advertising-supported streaming television ("FAST") channel with distribution across multiple streaming services. Bounce Bounce is available in approximately 98% of U.S. television broadcast homes. Bounce is an African American broadcast network dedicated to inspiring, empowering and entertaining viewers. Bounce programming represents a rich mosaic of the African American community, featuring both licensed and original dramas, sitcoms, movies and specials. Original programming includes hit series such as Johnson and Finding Happy. In the fourth quarter of 2021, Bounce XL was launched as a FAST channel with distribution on multiple streaming services. It is also available on multiple streaming services as an app. Court TV Court TV is available in approximately 98% of U.S. television broadcast homes. Court TV is devoted to live, gavel-to- gavel coverage, in-depth legal reporting and expert analysis of the nation's most important and compelling trials. Court TV is also available as either an app or FAST channel with distribution on multiple streaming services. 10 Defy TV Defy TV reaches approximately 98% of U.S. television broadcast homes and features male-centric programming that includes reality-based series such as Pawn Stars, Forged in Fire, American Pickers and The Curse of Oak Island. Grit Grit is available in approximately 99% of U.S. television broadcast homes and appeals more strongly to male viewers. Grit’s programming line-up is primarily iconic Western series and movies. In 2022, Grit Xtra was launched as a FAST channel with distribution across multiple streaming services. ION Mystery ION Mystery is available in approximately 99% of U.S. television broadcast homes and its programming is anchored in popular true-crime and justice procedural programming. Programming on ION Mystery includes Bones, Scorpion, and CSI franchises. In 2022, ION Mystery was launched as a FAST channel with distribution across multiple streaming services. Laff Laff is available in approximately 98% of U.S. television broadcast homes and targets comedy-lovers in the 18 to 49 age range. Programming on Laff includes popular sitcoms including Home Improvement, How I Met Your Mother and According to Jim. Scripps News (formerly Newsy) Scripps News is our national news network focused on bringing objective, fact-based reporting and analysis on world and national news, including politics, entertainment, science and technology. During the first six months of 2021, we exited the cable and satellite distribution of the network as part of a strategy to relaunch as an over-the-air network, which happened in October 2021. Scripps News remains the nation's only free 24/7 broadcast news network, available in approximately 96% of U.S. television broadcast homes. Scripps News is also available on multiple streaming services as either an app or FAST channel. The network’s programming lineup includes Morning Rush, In the Loop with Christian Bryant, Scripps News Reports with Chance Seales and Scripps News Showcase. TrueReal TrueReal reaches approximately 95% of U.S. television broadcast homes and features female-centric programming that includes reality-based shows such as Storage Wars, Married at First Sight, Hoarders and Little Women: LA. 11 Information concerning our Scripps Networks FCC licensed television stations and the markets in which they operate is as follows: Station Market DTV Channel FCC License Expires in Market Rank (1) WPXN KILM KPXN WCPX WPPX WBPX WDPX WPXG KPXD WPXW WWPX KKPX KPXB WPXA KWPX KPXM WPXM WXPX WOPX KSPX WINP WRBU WFPX WRPX KPXG WNPX KUPX WPXE WSFJ KPXL KMCC WPXC WPXQ WPXL WQPX WPXK KTPX WKOI WIPL KFPX WLPX WPXR WZRB WSPX KPXR WEPX WPXU WTPX New York, NY Los Angeles, CA Los Angeles, CA Chicago, IL Philadelphia, PA Boston, MA Boston, MA Boston, MA Dallas-Ft.

Identifying quality talent is at the heart of everything we do and our business success is dependent upon our ability to attract, develop and retain highly qualified employees. Our core values of courage, compassion, excellence, fairness, integrity and respect establish the foundation on which the culture is built and represent the key expectations we have of our employees. Our goal is to hire the best, to spark their passion for the job and then to nourish their career with tools that will help them learn and excel. We believe our culture and commitment to our employees help us attract and retain our qualified talent, while simultaneously providing significant value to Scripps and its shareholders. Employees As of December 31, 2022, we had approximately 5,700 full-time equivalent employees, of whom approximately 4,400 were with Local Media and 900 with Scripps Networks. Various labor unions represent approximately 400 employees, all of which are in Local Media. We have not experienced any work stoppages at our current operations since 1985. We consider our relationships with our employees to be good. Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Scripps is committed to an equitable, diverse and inclusive workplace that reflects the communities where we live, work and play. Our goal is to support all employees with the resources and development opportunities they need to write their own stories. Our overarching Equity, Diversity and Inclusion ("EDI") strategy focuses on building awareness of the importance of EDI in our workplaces and communities, empowering leaders to employ EDI practices in their business units or reporting structures, and tracking its equity, diversity and inclusion efforts, which culminates in regulatory reporting (Equal Employment Opportunity-1 reports), divisional analysis and regular reports to the Company’s Board of Directors. The EDI team has developed plans to direct our Company based on our guiding principles: • • • Culture - To foster a culture that embraces each person's diversity and empowers employees to reach their full potential, People - To attract and retain diverse talent through strategic recruiting practices and professional development to reflect the communities we serve, and Business - to create additional value for Scripps and drive stronger business results by leveraging new ideas and innovation that stem from a culture of inclusion. Leading Scripps’ diversity, equity and inclusion strategies across the enterprise is a chief diversity officer. She and her team partner with business and human resources leaders to develop and implement the EDI strategy as well as action plans that continually evolve Scripps’ EDI commitment. The components of these plans include: • • • HR/EDI Strategic Purpose/Enterprise HR Objective: Foster diverse, inclusive, respectful workplaces focused on recruiting and developing talent that drives a high-performance, mission-oriented culture to support business objectives. EDI Mission: Cultivate a culture of inclusion where everyone is valued, informed and empowered to fully realize their Scripps story. EDI Vision: Transforming our business and the communities where we live, work and play by acknowledging, incorporating and uplifting our increasingly diverse world. Our four diversity pillars are: Race, Gender, LGBTQ+ and veterans. As a key focus of our EDI journey, we have labored to help both employees and external stakeholders understand how and why Scripps is focused on a more equitable, diverse and inclusive workplace. The awareness and educational part of our strategy is foundational to improving representation in our workforce. We celebrate our history and heritage months and ensure ongoing learning opportunities through The Welcome Table, which highlights educational awareness; Courageous Conversations, showcasing robust, candid discourse among employees and speakers; EDI Academy, which promotes intimate topical exchanges; and our annual Diversity Symposium. To engage employees deeper in our organization, we’ve also introduced our EDI Advisory Council, which will leverage employee 13 perspectives on our EDI strategy and supporting tactics. Our Employee Resource Groups have increased across the organization, with each diversity pillar represented. We kicked off several new opportunities in 2022, including incorporating EDI discussions into the onboarding process, ensuring each new employee has a firm grasp of our EDI strategy and regularly offering unconscious bias trainings to all employees. We also have been focused on evolving our television programming through the lens of our EDI goals. In 2022, we created a dedicated position to lead efforts in inclusive journalism, helping our news markets better connect with their audiences. This person partners with news leaders in implementing the company’s audience and demographic research findings, developing EDI best practices and placing a greater emphasis on representing all sectors of our audiences. In 2022, we held our second annual EDI Symposium, which is our annual, weeklong event featuring internal and external speakers talking to our employees about topics related to EDI. More than 3,800 employees joined 14 inspiring sessions – a 31% increase over last year’s symposium. Of those, 42% were in manager and executive roles. At its core, our EDI work is about engaging every employee and helping them to participate at work at their fullest level, to achieve the satisfaction of belonging and performing well. Compensation and Benefits Critical to our success is identifying, recruiting, retaining and incentivizing our existing and future employees. We strive to attract and retain the most talented employees in the industry by offering competitive compensation and benefits. Our compensation philosophy is based on rewarding each employee’s individual contributions and striving to achieve equal pay for equal work regardless of gender, race or ethnicity. We use a combination of fixed and variable pay, including base salary, bonus, commissions and merit increases, which vary across the business and by role. In addition, as part of our long-term incentive plan for executives and certain employees, we provide share-based compensation to foster our merit-based culture, align our business leaders’ interests with those of our shareholders, and attract, retain and motivate our key leaders. As the success of our business is fundamentally connected to the well-being of our people, we offer benefits that support their physical, financial and emotional well-being. We provide our employees with access to flexible and convenient medical programs intended to meet their needs and the needs of their families. In addition to standard medical coverage, we offer eligible employees dental and vision coverage, health savings and flexible spending accounts, paid time off, employee assistance programs, voluntary identity theft protection, access to student loan assistance programs, voluntary short-term and long-term disability insurance and term life insurance. We also offer a voluntary Employee Stock Purchase Plan ("ESPP") whereby employees can elect to participate through payroll deductions to purchase Company stock at a discounted price. Additionally, we offer a 401(k) Defined Contribution Plan to employees and an Executive Deferred Compensation Plan to certain senior-level employees. Financial counseling is available at no cost to our employees providing access to confidential, one-on-one financial coaching and online resources to help with every day financial decisions and planning for life events. Through the Scripps Howard Fund, our employees have opportunities to apply for grants to support their volunteer efforts in local communities as well as charitable contribution matching gifts. Our benefits vary by location and are designed to meet or exceed local laws and to be competitive in the marketplace. Commitment to Values and Ethics Along with our core values, we demonstrate a commitment to operate at the highest ethical standards by enforcing the principles in Scripps’ Code of Conduct, which is applicable to all employees and sets forth expectations and guidance for employees to make appropriate decisions. Our Code of Conduct covers topics related to accounting and auditing matters, antitrust activity, confidentiality and privacy, conflict of interest, discrimination or harassment, diverting of product or business activity, embezzlement, employee relations, falsification of contracts, reports or records, gifts or entertainment, improper supplier or contractor activity, leadership or management issues, securities law violations, sexual harassment, substance abuse, theft, and unsafe working conditions, among other things. The Code of Conduct reflects our commitment to operating in a fair, honest, responsible and ethical manner and also establishes a means for employees to submit confidential and anonymous reports of suspected or alleged violations of our policies (including through an anonymous hotline). Our executive officers and supervisors maintain “open door” policies and any form of retaliation is strictly prohibited. Additionally, the Company has in place a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics for the Chief Executive Officer and the Senior Financial and Accounting Officers. We also require our journalists to read and sign our Journalism Code of Ethics, and we provide Social Media Guidelines that help our employees understand how to protect the reputations of themselves and the Company on social media platforms. 14 Professional Development and Training We believe a key factor in employee retention is training and professional development for our talent. We have training programs across all levels of Scripps to meet the needs of various roles, specialized skill sets and departments across the Company. We use certain employee turnover rates in assessing our employee programs to ensure that they are structured to instill high levels of employee tenure, low levels of voluntary turnover and optimal productivity and performance across our workforce. In 2022, we implemented quarterly all-employee engagement surveys. Data is aggregated and shared with management to help us understand priorities and opportunities that our employees find beneficial to their everyday work life. To assist us with helping employees' career growth and exploration, we invited employees to update their experience, skills and interests in our human capital management system. Additionally, we utilize a performance evaluation program that adopts a modern approach to valuing and strengthening individual performance through on-going interactive progress assessments related to established goals and objectives. Communication and Engagement We strongly believe Scripps’ success depends on employees understanding how their work contributes to the Company’s overall strategy. To that end, we communicate with our workforce through a variety of channels and encourage open and direct communication, including frequent emails and videos from corporate leaders to all employees; daily company social media postings; annual all-employee awards program; employee engagement surveys; and regular town hall meetings with the CEO and other executives. In addition, Scripps employees across the country are giving back in their local communities through reporting on critical issues, entertaining audiences with quality content, fundraising to help those in need and volunteering for important causes. Item 1A. Risk Factors For an enterprise as large and complex as ours, a wide range of factors could materially affect future developments and performance. The most significant factors affecting our operations include the following: Risks Related to Our Businesses We expect to derive the majority of our revenues from advertising spending, which is affected by numerous factors. Declines in advertising revenues will adversely affect the profitability of our business. The demand for advertising is sensitive to a number of factors, both locally and nationally, including the following: • • • • • • The advertising and marketing spending by customers can be subject to seasonal and cyclical variations and is likely to be adversely affected during economic downturns. Programming and content offered by our businesses may not achieve desired ratings or may decline in popularity with its audience. Linear TV viewing levels have declined in recent years due to cord-cutting and a migration of viewing to streaming platforms. A continuation of these trends could adversely impact the size and demographic profile of our audiences and put pressure on advertising rates. The largest Subscription Video on Demand services have introduced advertising-supported versions that could take advertising dollars from linear TV. Television advertising revenues in even-numbered years benefit from political advertising, which is affected by campaign finance laws, as well as the competitiveness of specific political races in the markets where our television stations operate. Continued consolidation and contraction of local advertisers in our local markets could adversely impact our operating results, given that we expect the majority of our advertising to be sold to local businesses in our markets. Television stations have significant exposure to advertising in the automotive, retail and services industries. Our national networks have significant exposure to advertising in the consumer-packaged goods, pharmaceutical and insurance industries. Advertising within these industries may decline and we may not be able to secure replacement advertisers. 15 • • Several national advertising agencies are employing an automated process known as “programmatic buying” to gain efficiencies and reduce costs related to buying advertising. Growth in advertising revenues will rely in part on the ability to maintain and expand relationships with existing and future advertisers. The implementation of a programmatic model or other similar solution, where automation replaces existing pricing and allocation methods, could turn advertising inventory into a price-driven commodity. These automated solutions could reduce the value of relationships with advertisers as well as result in downward pricing pressure. The TV industry is on the verge of adopting new measurement currencies, and Nielsen is also making methodological changes to the way it measures viewing by incorporating set top box and smart TV data. The emerging currencies generally undercount over-the-air ("OTA") viewing, and Nielsen has not prioritized OTA enhancements. If measurement evolves in a direction that is unfavorable to OTA it could reduce the attractiveness of our audiences to advertisers. • Catastrophic events or geopolitical conditions that disrupt domestic or international economies. If we are unable to respond to any or all of these factors, our advertising revenues could decline and affect our profitability. The growth of direct content-to-consumer delivery channels may fragment our television audiences. This fragmentation could adversely impact advertising rates as well as cause a reduction in the revenues we receive from retransmission consent agreements, resulting in a loss of revenue that could materially adversely affect our broadcast operations. We deliver our television programming to our audiences primarily over-the-air and through cable and satellite service providers. Our television audience is being fragmented by the digital delivery of content directly to the consumer audience. Content providers, such as the "Big 4" broadcast networks, cable networks and other content developers, distributors and syndicators can deliver their programming directly to consumers via the internet concurrently with our distribution via over-the-air and cable and satellite. The delivery of content directly to consumers allows such distributors to compete with the programming we deliver, which may impact our audience size. Fragmentation of our audiences could impact the rates we receive from our advertisers, as well as shift advertisers away from traditional linear advertising to digital advertising. In addition, reduction in the number of subscribers to cable and satellite service providers could impact the revenue we receive under retransmission consent agreements. The reduction of our advertising and distribution revenues from these factors would affect our profitability. The loss of affiliation and carriage agreements or the costs of renewals could adversely affect our operating results. Eighteen of our stations have affiliations with the ABC television network, eleven with the NBC television network, nine with the CBS television network and four with the FOX television network. Additionally, we have affiliations with the CW television network. These television networks produce and distribute programming which our stations commit to air at specified times. Networks sell commercial advertising time during their programming, and the "Big 4" networks, ABC, NBC, CBS and FOX, also require stations to pay fees for the right to carry their programming. These fees may be a percentage of retransmission revenues that the stations receive (see below) or may be fixed amounts based on the number of households or subscribers in a market. These fees have been increasing from renewal to renewal over the past several years. ION's broadcast stations are carried by cable and satellite operators in their local television markets pursuant to the FCC’s “must carry” rules. Additionally, in certain of our markets, our national networks are carried by local television broadcasters and cable and satellite operators pursuant to negotiated carriage agreements. These contracts typically require us to make fixed fee payments and generally have three to five-year terms. There is no assurance that we will be able to reach network affiliation or carriage agreements in the future. The non- renewal or termination of our network affiliation agreements would prevent us from being able to carry programming of the respective network. Loss of a network affiliation would require us to obtain replacement programming, which may not be as attractive to target audiences and could result in lower advertising revenues. In addition, loss of any of the "Big 4" network affiliations would result in materially lower retransmission revenue. The loss of carriage agreements for our national networks would reduce our advertising revenues and affect our profitability. 16 Our retransmission consent revenue may be adversely affected by renewals of retransmission consent agreements, by declines in the number of subscribers to multichannel video programming distributor ("MVPD") services, by new technologies for the distribution of video programming, or by revised government regulations. As our retransmission consent agreements expire, there can be no assurance that we will be able to renew them at comparable or better rates. As a result, retransmission revenues could decrease and retransmission revenue growth could decline over time. In recent years, the number of subscribers to MVPD services has declined, as the growth of direct internet streaming of video programming to televisions and mobile devices has incentivized consumers to discontinue their cable or satellite service subscriptions. Decreases in the number of MVPD subscribers reduces the revenue we earn under our retransmission agreements. The use of new technologies to redistribute broadcast programming, such as those that rely upon the Internet to deliver video programming or those that receive and record broadcast signals over the air via an antenna and then retransmit that information digitally to customers’ television sets, specialty set-top boxes, or computer or mobile devices, could adversely affect our retransmission revenue if such technologies are not found to be subject to copyright or other legal restrictions or to regulations that apply to MVPDs such as cable operators or satellite carriers. Changes in the Communications Act of 1934, as amended (the “Communications Act”) or the FCC’s rules with respect to the negotiation of retransmission consent agreements between broadcasters and MVPDs could also adversely impact our ability to negotiate acceptable retransmission consent agreements. In addition, continued consolidation among cable television operators could adversely impact our ability to negotiate acceptable retransmission consent agreements. We make investments in television programming ("content") in advance of knowing whether that particular content will be popular enough for us to recoup our costs. Additionally, if costs to acquire this content increase or this content becomes more difficult to obtain, our operating results may be adversely affected. We incur significant costs for the purchase of television programming. We may have to purchase content several years in advance or enter into multi-year agreements, resulting in the commitment of significant costs in advance of knowing whether the content will be popular with its audience. If this acquired content is not sufficiently popular among audiences in relation to the cost we invest in the content, or if we need to replace content that is performing poorly, we may not be able to produce enough revenue to recover our costs. Additionally, increased competition for content from entrants into the market and the exclusive use of content on streaming services owned by content creators could reduce content availability or increase our content costs. Any of these factors could reduce our revenues, result in the incurrence of impairment charges or otherwise cause our costs to escalate relative to revenues. Our television stations will continue to be subject to government regulations which, if revised, could adversely affect our operating results. • • Pursuant to FCC rules, local television stations must elect every three years to either (1) require cable operators and/or direct broadcast satellite carriers to carry the stations’ over-the-air signals or (2) enter into retransmission consent negotiations for carriage. If our retransmission consent agreements are terminated or not renewed, or if our broadcast signals are distributed on less-favorable terms, our ability to compete effectively may be adversely affected. If we cannot renew our FCC broadcast licenses, our broadcast operations will be impaired. Our business depends upon maintaining our broadcast licenses from the FCC, which has the authority to revoke licenses, not renew them, or renew them only with significant qualifications, including renewals for less than a full term. We cannot assure that future renewal applications will be approved, or that the renewals will not include conditions or qualifications that could adversely affect operations. If the FCC fails to renew any of these licenses, it could prevent us from operating the affected stations. If the FCC renews a license with substantial conditions or modifications (including renewing the license for a term of fewer than eight years), it could have a material adverse effect on the affected station’s revenue potential. 17 • • As also discussed under Federal Regulation of Broadcasting, the FCC has adopted broadcasters’ proposal to permit the voluntary use of a new digital television transmission standard, ATSC 3.0, that is incompatible with the existing standard. Much uncertainty exists concerning the costs, benefits, and public acceptance of the services expected to become possible under this new standard, and television stations could be adversely affected by moving either too quickly or too slowly towards its adoption. The FCC and other government agencies are continually considering proposals intended to promote consumer interests. New government regulations affecting the television industry could raise programming costs, restrict broadcasters’ operating flexibility, reduce advertising revenues, raise the costs of delivering broadcast signals, or otherwise affect operating results. We cannot predict the nature or scope of future government regulation or its impact on our operations. The loss of skilled employees or an inability to attract and retain skilled employees could adversely affect our business. To execute our strategic plan and maintain business continuity, we must attract and retain personnel with appropriate talent and skills. If we are unable to hire and retain employees capable of performing key functions in our business, or if measures we take to respond to a decrease in labor availability prove ineffective or have unintended negative consequences, our business could be adversely affected. We are experiencing an increasingly competitive labor market, and have had higher turnover rates and more open positions since the COVID-19 pandemic than during pre-pandemic years. Sustained labor shortages or increased turnover rates, whether caused by the pandemic, general macroeconomic factors or dynamics within our industry (including a shrinking pool of new talent interested in the media business), could lead to increased costs, such as increased wage rates to attract and retain employees, could negatively affect our revenue and profits and could have an impact on our operations and business continuity. Acquisitions, joint ventures and strategic alliances involve risks and, if said risks are not managed effectively, our operating results could be negatively affected. We expect to continue making acquisitions and entering into joint ventures and strategic alliances as part of our long-term business strategy. Acquisitions and other strategic transactions involve inherent risks, such as increasing leverage and debt service requirements and combining company cultures, facilities and systems, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations. Additionally, our revenues and profitability could be adversely affected if we are unable to implement effective cost controls, achieve expected synergies, or increase revenues as a result of these transactions. Such transactions can also result in unexpected liabilities and potentially divert management’s attention from the operation of our business. We may evaluate strategic acquisitions and investments in the future, and there are various risks associated with an investment strategy. We have pursued and may selectively continue to pursue strategic transactions, subject to market conditions, our liquidity, and the availability of attractive investment candidates, with the goal of improving our business. We may not be able to identify other attractive acquisition and investment targets or some of our competitors may have greater financial or managerial resources with which to pursue strategic targets we may pursue. Therefore, even if we are successful in identifying attractive investment targets, we may face considerable competition and be unsuccessful in acquiring such targets. Acquisitions of television stations are subject to the approval of the FCC and the Antitrust Division of the Department of Justice. Current or future policies of these regulatory authorities could restrict our ability to pursue or consummate future transactions and could require us to divest certain television stations if an acquisition under contract would result in excessive concentration in a market or fail to comply with FCC ownership limitations. There can be no assurance that an acquisition will be approved by these regulatory authorities, or that a requirement to divest existing stations will not have an adverse effect on the transaction or our business. We will continue to face cybersecurity and similar risks, which could result in the disclosure of confidential information, disruption of operations, damage to our brands and reputation, legal exposure and financial losses. Security breaches, malware or other “cyber attacks” could harm our business by disrupting delivery of services, jeopardizing our confidential information and that of our vendors and clients, and damaging our reputation. Our operations are routinely involved in receiving, storing, processing and transmitting sensitive information. Although we monitor security measures regularly, any unauthorized intrusion, malicious software infiltration, theft of data, network disruption, denial of service, or similar act by any party could disrupt the integrity, continuity, and security of our systems or the systems of our 18 clients or vendors. These events, or our failure to employ new technologies, revise processes and invest in people to sustain our ability to defend against cyber threats, could create financial liability, regulatory sanction, or a loss of confidence in our ability to protect information, and adversely affect our revenue by causing the loss of current or potential clients. We have issued $600 million in preferred shares, the terms of which restrict us from undertaking certain actions while such preferred shares are outstanding. Berkshire Hathaway Inc. (“Berkshire Hathaway”) provided $600 million of financing for the ION acquisition in exchange for Series A Preferred Shares of the Company. The preferred shares are redeemable at the option of Scripps beginning on January 7, 2026, and redeemable at the option of the holders in the event of a Change of Control (as defined in the terms of the preferred shares), in each case at a redemption price of 105% of the face value, plus accrued and unpaid dividends (whether or not declared). As long as Scripps pays quarterly dividends in cash on the preferred shares, the dividend rate will be 8% per annum. If dividends on the preferred shares, which compound quarterly, are not paid in full in cash, the rate will increase to 9% per annum for the rest of time that the preferred shares are outstanding. Under the terms of the preferred shares, Scripps is subject to certain restrictions, including being prohibited from paying dividends on and purchasing its common shares until all preferred shares are redeemed. While the preferred shares are outstanding, we may also not issue any additional preferred shares or any shares of any other series of preferred without the consent of Berkshire Hathaway. These restrictions may limit our flexibility to pursue other strategic opportunities. Risks Related to the Ownership of Scripps Class A Common Shares Certain descendants of Edward W. Scripps own approximately 93% of Scripps' Common Voting shares and are signatories to the Scripps Family Agreement, which governs the transfer and voting of Common Voting shares held by them. As a result of the foregoing, these descendants have the ability to elect two-thirds of the Board of Directors and to direct the outcome of any matter on which the Ohio Revised Code (“ORC”) does not require a vote of our Class A Common shares. Under our articles of incorporation, holders of Class A Common shares vote only for the election of one-third of the Board of Directors and are not entitled to vote on any matter other than a limited number of matters expressly set forth in the ORC as requiring a separate vote of both classes of stock. Because this concentrated control could discourage others from initiating any potential merger, takeover or other change of control transaction, the market price of our Class A Common shares could be adversely affected. We have the ability to issue preferred stock, which could affect the rights of holders of our Class A Common shares. Our articles of incorporation allow the Board of Directors to issue and set the terms of 25 million shares of preferred stock. The terms of any such preferred stock, if issued, may adversely affect the dividend, liquidation and other rights of holders of our Class A Common shares. The public price and trading volume of our Class A Common shares may be volatile. The price and trading volume of our Class A Common shares may be volatile and subject to fluctuation. Some of the factors that could cause fluctuation in the stock price or trading volume of Class A Common shares include: • major world events and geopolitical conditions; • • • • • • general market and economic conditions and market trends, including in the television broadcast industry, the national media marketplace and the financial markets generally; the political, economic and social situation in the United States; variations in quarterly operating results; inability to meet revenue forecasts; announcements by us or competitors of significant acquisitions, strategic partnerships, joint ventures, capital commitments or other business developments; adoption of new accounting standards affecting the media industry; 19 • • • • • • • operations of competitors and the performance of competitors’ common stock; litigation and governmental action involving or affecting us or our subsidiaries; changes in financial estimates and recommendations by securities analysts; loss of key personnel; purchases or sales of blocks of our Class A Common shares; operating and stock performance of companies that investors may consider to be comparable to us; and changes in the regulatory environment, including rulemaking or other actions by the FCC or the SEC. There can be no assurance that the price of our Class A Common shares will not fluctuate or decline significantly. The stock market may experience considerable price and volume fluctuations that could be unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of individual companies and that could adversely affect the price of our Class A Common shares, regardless of the Company’s operating performance. Stock price volatility might be higher if the trading volume of our Class A Common shares is low. Furthermore, shareholders may initiate securities class action lawsuits if the market price of our Class A Common shares declines significantly, which may cause us to incur substantial costs and divert the time and attention of our management. Risks Related to Our Indebtedness We have substantial debt and have the ability to incur significant additional debt. The principal and interest payment obligations on such debt may restrict our future operations and impair our ability to meet our long-term obligations. As of December 31, 2022, we had approximately $2.9 billion in aggregate principal amount of outstanding indebtedness, approximately $818 million of which constituted senior unsecured debt, $523 million of which constituted senior secured debt and $1.6 billion of which constituted the aggregate principal amount of term loans under our Credit Agreement. We have the ability to incur up to $400 million of indebtedness under our Credit Agreement, all of which is secured indebtedness, effectively ranking senior to unsecured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness. Our outstanding debt could have the following consequences: • • require us to dedicate a substantial portion of any cash flow from operations to the payment of interest and principal due under our debt, which would reduce funds available for other business purposes, including capital expenditures and acquisitions; place us at a competitive disadvantage compared to some of our competitors that may have less debt and better access to capital resources; • make us more vulnerable to economic downturns and adverse industry conditions and limit our flexibility to plan for, or react to, changes in our business or industry; • limit our ability to obtain additional financing required to fund acquisitions, working capital and capital expenditures and for other general corporate purposes; and • make it more difficult for us to satisfy our financial obligations. Our ability to service our significant financial obligations depends on our ability to generate significant cash flow. This is partially subject to general economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory, and other factors that are beyond our control. We cannot assure you that our business will generate cash flow from operations, that future borrowings will be available to us under our Credit Agreement or any other credit facilities, or that we will be able to complete any necessary financings, in amounts sufficient to enable us to fund our operations or pay our debts and other obligations, or to fund other liquidity needs. If we are not able to generate sufficient cash flow to service our obligations, we may need to refinance or restructure our debt, sell assets, reduce or delay capital investments, or seek to raise additional capital. Additional debt or equity financing may not be available in sufficient amounts, at times or on terms acceptable to us, or at all. Specifically, volatility in the capital markets may also impact our ability to obtain additional financing, or to refinance our existing debt, on terms or at times favorable to us. If we are unable to implement one or more of these alternatives, we may not be able to service our debt or 20 other obligations, which could result in us being in default thereon, in which circumstances our lenders could cease making loans to us, and lenders or other holders of our debt could accelerate and declare due all outstanding obligations under the respective agreements, which would likely have a material adverse effect on us. The agreements governing our various debt obligations impose restrictions on our operations and limit our ability to undertake certain corporate actions. The agreements governing our various debt obligations, including the indenture that governs senior indebtedness and the agreements governing our Credit Agreement, include covenants imposing significant restrictions on our operations. These restrictions may affect our ability to operate our business and may limit our ability to take advantage of potential business opportunities as they arise. These covenants place restrictions, subject to certain limitations, on our ability to, among other things: • • incur additional debt; declare or pay dividends, redeem stock or make other distributions to shareholders; • make investments or acquisitions; • • create liens or use assets as security in other transactions; issue guarantees; • merge or consolidate, or sell, transfer, lease or dispose of substantially all of our assets; • • engage in transactions with affiliates; and purchase, sell or transfer certain assets. Any of these restrictions and limitations could make it more difficult for us to execute our business strategy. Our Credit Agreement requires us to comply with certain financial ratios and covenants; our failure to do so will result in a default thereunder, which would have a material adverse effect on us. We are required to comply with certain financial covenants under our Credit Agreement. Our ability to comply with these requirements may be affected by events affecting our business, but beyond our control, including prevailing general economic, financial and industry conditions. These covenants could have an adverse effect on us by limiting our ability to take advantage of financing, merger and acquisition or other corporate opportunities. The breach of any of these covenants or restrictions could result in a default under the applicable senior credit facility. Upon a default under any of our debt agreements, the lenders or debt holders thereunder could have the right to declare all amounts outstanding, together with accrued and unpaid interest, to be immediately due and payable, which could, in turn, trigger defaults under other debt obligations and could result in the termination of commitments of the lenders to make further extensions of credit under such senior credit facility. If we were unable to repay our secured debt to our lenders, or were otherwise in default under any provision governing our outstanding secured debt obligations, our secured lenders could proceed against us and subsidiary guarantors and against the collateral securing that debt. Any default resulting in an acceleration of outstanding indebtedness, a termination of commitments under our financing arrangements or lenders proceeding against the collateral securing such indebtedness would likely result in a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Our variable rate indebtedness subjects us to interest rate risk, which could cause our annual debt service obligations to increase significantly. Borrowings under our Credit Agreement are at variable rates of interest and expose us to interest rate risk. Interest rates may increase in the future. If rates were to increase, debt service obligations on our variable rate indebtedness would increase even though the amount borrowed remained the same, and our net income and cash available to service our obligations would decrease. Additionally, upon the incurrence of certain indebtedness under our Credit Agreement, the interest rates on our existing term loans would increase. The phase-out of LIBOR could affect interest rates under our Senior Secured Credit Facilities. The United Kingdom’s Financial Conduct Authority announced the intent to phase out LIBOR. LIBOR was no longer used to price new loans starting in 2022, and the index will formally be phased out in the United States by June 30, 2023. The United States has identified the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) as the replacement for LIBOR. Our Credit Agreement has replacement rate language in place that will provide for transition to the new SOFR benchmark, but an 21 amendment will be required. The utilization of SOFR may produce higher rates than those that would have been in effect prior to any LIBOR phase-out, which could negatively impact our interest expense, results of operations and cash flow. Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments None. Item 2. Properties We lease our principal executive offices in a building located at 312 Walnut Street, Cincinnati, OH 45202. We own or lease the facilities and equipment used by our television stations. We own, lease or co-own with other broadcast television stations, the towers used to transmit our television signals. Our Scripps Networks business primarily leases their facilities. This includes facilities for executive offices, sales offices and studio space. All of our owned and leased properties are in good condition, and suitable for the conduct of our present business. We believe that suitable additional or alternative space, including those under lease options, will be available at commercially reasonable terms for future expansion. Item 3.

Executive Overview The E.W. Scripps Company (“Scripps”) is a diverse media enterprise that serves audiences and businesses through a portfolio of local television stations and national news and entertainment networks. We serve audiences and businesses in our Local Media division through a portfolio of 61 local television stations in 41 markets. Our local stations have programming agreements with ABC, NBC, CBS, FOX and the CW. In our Scripps Networks division, we operate nine national news and entertainment networks - ION, Bounce, Court TV, Defy TV, Grit, ION Mystery, Laff, Scripps News and TrueReal – each reaches well over 90% of U.S. television households over-the-air. Effective the beginning of 2023, we merged our nationally focused news resources into a Scripps News division. Scripps News combines the development and distribution of Newsy programming content, the Local Media national desk and our award-winning investigative reporting newsroom in Washington, D.C. into one coordinated organization. The combined operation will more efficiently serve national audiences and our local television stations. We also serve as the longtime steward of one of the nation's largest, most successful and longest-running educational programs, the Scripps National Spelling Bee. Additionally, we provide consumers DVR product solutions to watch and record free over-the-air HDTV on connected devices through our Nuvyyo business. In December of 2022, we launched our Scripps Sports division to further leverage our local market depth and national broadcast reach for partnerships with sports leagues, conferences and teams. In addition to the market depth of our 61 local television stations, ION boasts the fifth-largest national broadcast viewership and its network of owned and operated and affiliate stations reaches 100% of U.S. television households through broadcast, cable/satellite and connected TV platforms, providing it the opportunity to run localized, regionalized and national programming. Our sports division will be comprised of a limited number of personnel that will seek and negotiate sports rights for the benefit of our Local Media and Scripps Networks businesses. The revenues earned and any sports rights fees or other direct expenses incurred will reside within those respective businesses. Scripps is a leader in free, ad-supported television. All of our local stations and national networks reach consumers over- the-air, and all of our television brands can also be found on free streaming platforms. During 2022, we continued to expand in the fast-growing connected television marketplace, as well as continued to leverage our leadership position in the growing over- the-air marketplace. Currently, one in three non pay-TV homes is watching television over the air alongside their subscription services, and industry data shows the use of free television over antenna is expected to surpass 50 million households in 2025. Scripps has launched a major national consumer marketing campaign to broaden antenna use even more, as well as working with key partners in retail, manufacturing and antenna installation, to help television owners understand the quality and quantity of programming available over the air and the ease of antenna use. In 2022, we incurred $13.2 million of costs related to this advertising campaign. During 2022, we redeemed $59.0 million of the 2027 Senior Notes at a weighted-average redemption price equal to 97.77% of the aggregate principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest, $26.6 million of the 2029 Senior Notes at a weighted-average redemption price equal to 93.59% of the aggregate principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest and F-2 $85.9 million of the 2031 Senior Notes at a weighted-average redemption price equal to 89.51% of the aggregate principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest. The redemptions resulted in a gain on extinguishment of debt of $8.6 million, as the notes were redeemed for total consideration below par value of the notes. The notes were redeemed with cash on hand. During 2022, we also made additional principal payments on the 2028 term loan totaling $100 million. Preferred stock dividends paid in 2022 and 2021 totaled $48.0 million and $45.1 million, respectively. Dividends paid to shareholders of our common stock totaled $16.6 million in 2020. Under the terms of Berkshire Hathaway's preferred equity investment in Scripps, we are prohibited from paying dividends on and repurchasing our common shares until all preferred shares are redeemed. In January of 2023, we announced a strategic restructuring and reorganization of the Company that will further leverage our strong position in the U.S. television ecosystem and propel our growth across new distribution platforms and emerging media marketplaces. Lisa Knutson was named chief operating officer, assuming responsibility for the Local Media and Scripps Networks operating divisions, and was tasked with leading the Company’s restructuring efforts. The restructuring aims to create a leaner and more agile operating structure through the centralization of certain services and the consolidation of layers of management across our operating businesses and corporate office. We currently anticipate this effort will result in at least $40 million in annual savings, which will include reductions in a variety of areas. Results of Operations The trends and underlying economic conditions affecting operating performance and future prospects differ for each of our business segments. Accordingly, you should read the following discussion of our consolidated results of operations in conjunction with the discussion of the operating performance of our individual business segments that follows. Consolidated Results of Operations Consolidated results of operations were as follows: (in thousands) Operating revenues Cost of revenues, excluding depreciation and amortization Selling, general and administrative expenses, excluding depreciation and amortization Acquisition and related integration costs Restructuring costs Depreciation and amortization of intangible assets Gains (losses), net on disposal of property and equipment Operating income Interest expense Gain (loss) on extinguishment of debt Defined benefit pension plan income (expense) Gain on sale of Triton business Losses on stock warrant Miscellaneous, net Income from continuing operations before income taxes Provision for income taxes Income from continuing operations, net of tax Income from discontinued operations, net of tax For the years ended December 31, Change 2021 Change 2020 2022 $ 2,453,215 (1,233,769) 7.4 % $ 2,283,532 11.5 % (1,106,226) 22.9 % $ 1,857,478 (929,748) 19.0 % (623,161) 4.7 % (595,105) 19.6 % (497,748) (1,642) — (160,433) (5,866) 428,344 (161,130) 8,589 2,613 — — (1,953) 276,463 (80,561) 195,902 — (40,373) (9,436) (161,922) 30,275 400,745 (165,164) (15,347) (343) 81,784 (99,118) (15,469) 187,088 (71,189) 115,899 6,813 (18,678) — (107,155) (661) 303,488 (92,994) — (4,388) — — 2,914 209,020 (55,456) 153,564 115,769 Net income $ 195,902 $ 122,712 $ 269,333 On January 7, 2021, we acquired the national broadcast network, ION Media Networks, Inc., on March 31, 2021, we completed the sale of our Triton business and on December 30, 2020, we completed the sale of our WPIX television station. F-3 The inclusion or exclusion of operating results from these businesses for the periods subsequent to the acquisition or disposition impacts the comparability of our consolidated and segment operating results. 2022 compared with 2021 Operating revenues increased $170 million or 7.4% in 2022 compared to 2021. Revenue benefited from higher political and distribution revenues in our Local Media group. Cost of revenues, which is comprised of programming costs and costs associated with distributing our content, increased $128 million or 12% in 2022 compared to 2021. Programming costs, the primary driver of fluctuations in cost of revenues, increased $95.1 million year-over-year, attributed to higher network affiliation fees at our Local Media stations and Scripps Networks, reflecting contractual rate increases. Additionally, syndicated programming expense increased at Scripps Networks attributable to the new networks launched in 2021, continued investment in new series programming for the networks and an increase in production of our original programming. Selling, general and administrative expenses are primarily comprised of sales, marketing and advertising expenses, research costs and costs related to corporate administrative functions. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $28.1 million or 4.7% in 2022 compared to 2021, primarily attributed to higher business costs across various categories as employees have returned to our station and office locations and resumed more normal operating procedures. Acquisition and related integration costs were $1.6 million in 2022. The acquisition and related integration costs of $40.4 million in 2021 primarily reflect investment banking, legal and professional service costs incurred to complete and integrate the ION acquisition. Restructuring costs totaled $9.4 million in 2021. In connection with the Newsy restructuring plan, we incurred charges in the first quarter of 2021 totaling $7.1 million for the write-downs of both capitalized carriage agreement payments and certain Newsy intangible assets. The additional restructuring charges in 2021 were primarily attributed to employee severance, relocation costs and Nielsen contract costs. Depreciation and amortization expense decreased slightly at $160 million in 2022 compared to $162 million in 2021. Gains from the disposal of property and equipment in 2021 primarily reflect a $32.6 million gain from the sale of our KMGH Denver station's building. Interest expense decreased $4.0 million in 2022 when compared to the prior year due to the additional term loan B payments and bond repurchases made during the second half of 2021 and throughout 2022. The impact of rising interest rates during 2022 partially offset the reduction in interest expense attributed to lower outstanding debt balances. During 2022, we redeemed $59.0 million of the 2027 Senior Notes, $26.6 million of the 2029 Senior Notes and $85.9 million of the 2031 Senior Notes. The redemptions resulted in a gain on extinguishment of debt of $8.6 million, as the notes were redeemed for total consideration below par value of the notes. In 2021, we redeemed the outstanding principal amount of our 2025 Senior Notes, $15.4 million of our 2027 Senior Notes and $22.0 million of our 2031 Senior Notes. These 2021 redemptions resulted in a loss on extinguishment of debt of $15.3 million, representing the premiums paid on the notes and write-offs of unamortized debt financing costs. In 2021, we recognized an $81.8 million pre-tax gain from the disposition of the Triton business. The transaction closed on March 31, 2021 for total net proceeds of $225 million. In 2021, we incurred a $99.1 million non-cash charge related to our outstanding common stock warrant. The warrant obligation was being marked-to-market each reporting period with the increase in our common stock price being the significant contributor to a higher valuation. Following an amendment to the common stock warrant agreement on May 14, 2021, the fair value of the warrant was reclassified to equity and is no longer marked-to-market each reporting period. The effective income tax rate was 29% and 38% for 2022 and 2021, respectively. Differences between our effective income tax rate and the U.S. federal statutory rate are due to the impact of state taxes, foreign taxes, non-deductible expenses, changes in reserves for uncertain tax positions, excess tax benefits or expense from the exercise and vesting of share-based compensation awards ($1.0 million benefit in 2022 and $1.7 million benefit in 2021), state deferred rate changes ($3.4 million expense in 2022) and state NOL valuation allowance changes. Additionally, a non-deductible expense of $102.6 million was F-4 recorded in 2021 related to preferred stock issuance costs and unrealized losses on mark-to-market adjustments recorded on the common stock warrant issued in connection with the ION acquisition. Discontinued Operations Discontinued operations reflect the historical results of our Stitcher operations. During the second quarter of 2020, our Board of Directors approved the sale of our Stitcher podcasting business and we signed a definitive agreement for its sale on July 10, 2020. The transaction closed on October 16, 2020. Business Segment Results — As discussed in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, our chief operating decision maker evaluates the operating performance of our business segments using a measure called segment profit. Segment profit excludes interest, defined benefit pension plan amounts, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, impairment charges, divested operating units, restructuring activities, investment results and certain other items that are included in net income (loss) determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Items excluded from segment profit generally result from decisions made in prior periods or from decisions made by corporate executives rather than the managers of the business segments. Depreciation and amortization charges are the result of decisions made in prior periods regarding the allocation of resources and are therefore excluded from the measure. Generally, our corporate executives make financing, tax structure and divestiture decisions. Excluding these items from measurement of our business segment performance enables us to evaluate business segment operating performance based upon current economic conditions and decisions made by the managers of those business segments in the current period. Our respective business segment results reflect the impact of intercompany carriage agreements between our local broadcast television stations and our national networks. We also allocate a portion of certain corporate costs and expenses, including accounting, procurement, human resources, employee benefit and information technology to our business segments. These intercompany agreements and allocations are generally amounts agreed upon by management, which may differ from an arms-length amount. The other segment caption aggregates our operating segments that are too small to report separately. Costs for centrally provided services and certain corporate costs that are not allocated to the business segments are included in shared services and corporate costs. These unallocated corporate costs would also include the costs associated with being a public company. Corporate assets are primarily cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, property and equipment primarily used for corporate purposes and deferred income taxes. F-5 Information regarding the operating performance of our business segments and a reconciliation of such information to the Consolidated Financial Statements is as follows: (in thousands) Segment operating revenues: Local Media Scripps Networks Other Intersegment eliminations Total operating revenues Segment profit (loss): Local Media Scripps Networks Other Shared services and corporate Acquisition and related integration costs Restructuring costs Depreciation and amortization of intangible assets Gains (losses), net on disposal of property and equipment Interest expense Gain (loss) on extinguishment of debt Defined benefit pension plan income (expense) Gain on sale of Triton business Losses on stock warrant 2022 For the years ended December 31, Change 2021 Change 2020 $ 1,494,357 13.3 % $ 1,319,468 (11.3) % $ 1,488,237 961,242 1.0 % 951,883 309,076 14,628 (45.7) % 26,924 (63.1) % 73,010 (17,012) 15.4 % (14,743) 14.8 % (12,845) $ 2,453,215 7.4 % $ 2,283,532 22.9 % $ 1,857,478 $ 386,369 44.1 % $ 268,140 (39.6) % $ 444,243 310,336 (20.3) % 389,278 359 (98.0) % 28,324 18,173 (18,140) (82,280) (1,642) — (160,433) (5,866) (161,130) 8,589 2,613 — — 8.9 % (75,576) 24.4 % (60,758) (40,373) (9,436) (161,922) 30,275 (165,164) (15,347) (343) 81,784 (99,118) (18,678) — (107,155) (661) (92,994) — (4,388) — — Miscellaneous, net Income from continuing operations before income taxes (1,953) (15,469) $ 276,463 $ 187,088 2,914 $ 209,020 Local Media — Our Local Media segment includes our 61 local broadcast stations and their related digital operations. It is comprised of 18 ABC affiliates, 11 NBC affiliates, nine CBS affiliates and four FOX affiliates. We also have 12 CW affiliates - four on full power stations and eight on multicast; five independent stations and 10 additional low power stations. Our Local Media segment earns revenue primarily from the sale of advertising to local, national and political advertisers and retransmission fees received from cable operators, telecommunication companies, satellite carriers and over-the-top virtual MVPDs. National television networks offer affiliates a variety of programming and sell the majority of advertising within those programs. In addition to network programs, we broadcast internally produced local and national programs, syndicated programs, sporting events and other programs of interest in each station's market. News is the primary focus of our locally- produced programming. The operating performance of our Local Media group is most affected by local and national economic conditions, particularly conditions within the services and automotive categories, and by the volume of advertising purchased by campaigns for elective office and political issues. The demand for political advertising is significantly higher in the third and fourth quarters of even-numbered years. F-6 Operating results for our Local Media segment were as follows: (in thousands) Segment operating revenues: Core advertising Political Distribution Other Total operating revenues Segment costs and expenses: Employee compensation and benefits Programming Other expenses Total costs and expenses Segment profit 2022 For the years ended December 31, Change 2021 Change 2020 $ 626,095 (5.7) % $ 663,864 8.9 % $ 609,537 198,519 655,499 22,693 (91.5) % 266,683 6.2 % 617,305 3.8 % 594,509 14,244 (8.7) % 15,606 (10.9) % 17,508 1,494,357 13.3 % 1,319,468 (11.3) % 1,488,237 425,840 481,712 (1.9) % 433,989 (3.1) % 447,669 9.8 % 438,719 8.2 % 405,604 200,436 12.2 % 178,620 (6.3) % 190,721 1,107,988 5.4 % 1,051,328 0.7 % 1,043,994 $ 386,369 44.1 % $ 268,140 (39.6) % $ 444,243 On December 30, 2020, we completed the sale of our WPIX television station. The exclusion of operating results from WPIX for the periods subsequent to the disposition impacts the comparability of our Local Media segment operating results. 2022 compared with 2021 Revenues Total Local Media revenues increased $175 million or 13% in 2022 compared to 2021 driven by year-over-year increases of $38.2 million in distribution revenues and $176 million in political revenues during this election year. While distribution revenues have been affected by subscriber losses by the MVPDs, particularly among cable and satellite providers, rate increases have more than offset those subscriber declines. Core advertising revenues decreased $37.8 million or 5.7% in 2022 compared to 2021. Strong core performance in the first quarter of 2022 was offset by softness during the remainder of 2022, reflecting the impact of macroeconomic conditions and the displacement of spots from political advertisements. Costs and expenses Employee compensation and benefits decreased $8.1 million or 1.9% in 2022 compared to 2021, reflecting lower bonus, stock compensation and employee benefit costs. Programming expense increased $43.0 million or 9.8% in 2022 compared to 2021. Network affiliation fees have been increasing industry-wide due to higher rates on renewals, as well as contractual rate increases during the terms of the affiliation agreements. Other expenses increased $21.8 million or 12% in 2022 compared to 2021. The increase reflects an increase in business costs across various categories as employees have returned to our station locations and resumed more normal operating procedures. F-7 Scripps Networks — Our Scripps Networks segment is comprised of nine national television networks - ION, Bounce, Court TV, Defy TV, Grit, ION Mystery, Laff, Scripps News and TrueReal. The networks reach nearly every U.S. television home through free over-the-air broadcast, cable/satellite, connected TV and digital distribution. Our Scripps Networks group earns revenue primarily through the sale of advertising. The advertising received by our national networks can be subject to seasonal and cyclical variations and is most impacted by national economic conditions. Operating results for our Scripps Networks segment were as follows: (in thousands) Total operating revenues Segment costs and expenses: 2022 For the years ended December 31, Change 2021 Change 2020 $ 961,242 1.0 % $ 951,883 $ 309,076 Employee compensation and benefits 120,202 16.0 % 103,624 87.3 % 55,330 Programming Other expenses Total costs and expenses Segment profit 342,835 18.8 % 288,484 137,305 187,869 10.2 % 170,497 93.5 % 88,117 650,906 15.7 % 562,605 $ 310,336 (20.3) % $ 389,278 280,752 $ 28,324 On January 7, 2021, we acquired the national broadcast network, ION Media Networks, Inc. The inclusion of operating results from this business for the periods subsequent to the acquisition impacts the comparability of our consolidated and segment operating results. 2022 compared with 2021 Revenues Scripps Networks revenues, which are primarily comprised of advertising revenues, increased $9.4 million or 1.0% in 2022 compared to 2021. The amount of advertising revenue we earn is a function of the pricing negotiated with advertisers, the number of advertising spots sold and the audience impressions delivered. During 2022, our Scripps Networks brands experienced softness within the national advertising marketplace as macroeconomic challenges, such as cost inflation and supply chain disruptions, impacted advertiser budgets. Scripps Networks revenues reflect the benefits of year-over-year increases in advertising spots available for sale, the expanded distribution of our networks on connected TV ("CTV") platforms and higher overall pricing in general market advertising, offset by the impacts of lower ratings in our key monetized demographics and a decline in direct response advertising rates that reflects the softness in the national advertising marketplace. Revenues in 2022 also reflect the benefit of incremental revenues earned from the July 2021 launch of the Defy TV and TrueReal networks and the acquisition of ION, which closed on January 7, 2021. Cost and Expenses Employee compensation and benefits increased $16.6 million or 16% in 2022 compared to 2021, reflecting additional hiring to support both the continued investment in our national news networks and the 2021 network launches. Programming expense increased $54.4 million or 19% in 2022 compared to 2021. The increase is driven by the launch of two new networks in July 2021, continued investment in new series and additional seasons of programming for the networks, increased production of original programming and higher affiliate fees reflecting both contractual rate increases and increased distribution across the Scripps Networks' businesses. Other expenses increased $17.4 million or 10% in 2022 compared to 2021. The increase is partly due to higher rating services costs, reflecting increases from the contractual fees that are tied to our revenues as well as additional network ratings added during the year. The increase is also driven by the addition of new networks in 2021, higher hosting fees tied to CTV revenue growth and the incurrence of higher costs supporting the growth of our Scripps Networks' businesses as well as the return to more normal business operating procedures. F-8 Shared services and corporate We centrally provide certain services to our business segments. Such services include accounting, tax, cash management, procurement, human resources, employee benefits and information technology. The business segments are allocated costs for such services at amounts agreed upon by management. Such allocated costs may differ from amounts that might be negotiated at arms-length. Costs for such services that are not allocated to the business segments are included in shared services and corporate costs. Shared services and corporate also includes unallocated corporate costs, such as costs associated with being a public company. Shared services and corporate expenses were up year-over-year with $82.3 million in 2022 and $75.6 million in 2021, reflecting increases in employee compensation and professional and miscellaneous services. Liquidity and Capital Resources Our primary source of liquidity is our available cash and borrowing capacity under our revolving credit facility. Our primary source of cash is generated from our ongoing operations and can be affected by various risks and uncertainties. At the end of December 2022, we had $18.0 million of cash on hand and $393 million of additional borrowing capacity under our revolving credit facility. Based on our current business plan, we believe our cash flow from operations will provide sufficient liquidity to meet the Company’s operating needs for the next 12 months. Cash Flows (in thousands) Net cash provided by operating activities Net cash used in investing activities Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities Effect of foreign exchange rates on cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash Decrease in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash Cash flows from operating activities For the years ended December 31, 2022 2021 $ $ 311,423 $ (66,393) (327,483) — (82,453) $ 237,000 (2,455,996) 693,475 (20) (1,525,541) Cash provided by operating activities increased $74.4 million in 2022 compared to 2021. Year-over-year change in cash provided by operating activities was favorably impacted from a $14.1 million year-over-year increase in segment profit, a cash outlay decrease of $32.1 million for programming investments in excess of programming amortization and a $38.7 million decrease in acquisition and related integration costs. These favorable operating cash impacts were partially offset by a $24.5 million increase in interest paid. In January 2022, all three of our senior notes had interest payments due versus only one having a payment due in January 2021. Cash flows from investing activities Cash used in investing activities was $66.4 million in 2022 compared to $2.5 billion in 2021. Investing activities in 2022 reflect the $13.8 million acquisition of Nuvyyo. Investing activities in 2021 reflect the $2.7 billion acquisition of ION, $225 million of net proceeds from the sale of our Triton business and $34.3 million of proceeds from the building sale at our Denver KMGH television station. Capital expenditures totaled $45.8 million in 2022 and $60.7 million in 2021. Cash flows from financing activities Cash used in financing activities was $327 million in 2022 compared to cash provided by financing activities of $693 million in 2021. During the full year of 2022, we redeemed $59.0 million of our 2027 Senior Notes, $26.6 million of our 2029 Senior Notes, $85.9 million of our 2031 Senior Notes and made additional principal payments on the 2028 term loan totaling $100 million. On January 7, 2021, we issued an $800 million term loan B and $600 million of preferred equity shares to Berkshire Hathaway in connection with the closing of the ION acquisition. During 2021, we redeemed the $400 million outstanding principal amount of our 2025 Senior Notes, $15.4 million of the 2027 Senior Notes, $22.0 million of the 2031 Senior Notes and made additional principal payments on term loans totaling $125 million. Preferred stock dividends were $48.0 million and $45.1 million in 2022 and 2021, respectively. F-9 Debt On January 7, 2021, we entered into the Sixth Amendment to the Third Amended Restated Credit Agreement ("Sixth Amendment"). Under the Sixth Amendment, we have a $400 million Revolving Credit Facility that matures on the earlier of January 2026 or 91 days prior to the stated maturity date for any of our existing loans and our existing unsecured notes that mature within the facility’s term. In connection with our credit agreement, we also have $1.6 billion of outstanding balance on our term loans. The annual required principal payments on these term loans total $18.6 million and the earliest maturity date for any of the loans is October of 2024. As of December 31, 2022, we also have $1.3 billion of senior notes outstanding. Senior secured notes totaling $523 million bear interest at a rate of 3.875% per annum and mature on January 15, 2029. Senior unsecured notes have a total outstanding principal balance of $818 million. The senior notes that mature on July 15, 2027 bear interest at 5.875% per annum and the senior notes that mature on January 15, 2031 bear interest at a rate of 5.375% per annum. Debt Covenants Our term loans and notes do not have maintenance covenants. The earliest maturity of our term loans and notes is the fourth quarter of 2024. Our revolving credit facility permits maximum leverage of 4.5 times the two-year average earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) as defined by our credit agreement. Based upon our current outlook, we expect to be in compliance with that covenant. Debt Repurchase Program In February 2023, our Board of Directors provided a new debt repurchase authorization, pursuant to which we may reduce, through redemptions or open market purchases and retirement, a combination of the outstanding principal balance of our senior secured and senior unsecured notes. The authorization permits an aggregate principal amount reduction of up to $500 million and expires on March 1, 2026. Our previous debt repurchase authorization was due to expire on March 1, 2023. Equity With the closing of the ION acquisition, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with Berkshire Hathaway Inc., ("Berkshire Hathaway"), pursuant to which Berkshire Hathaway provided $600 million of financing in exchange for 6,000 Series A Preferred Shares of the Company. The Preferred Shares, having a face value of $100,000 per share, are perpetual and will be redeemable at the option of the Company beginning on the fifth anniversary of issuance, and redeemable at the option of the holders in the event of a Change of Control (as defined in the terms of the Preferred Shares), in each case at a redemption price of 105% of the face value, plus accrued and unpaid dividends (whether or not declared). Preferred stock dividends paid in 2022 and 2021 totaled $48.0 million and $45.1 million, respectively. Berkshire Hathaway also received a warrant to purchase up to 23.1 million Class A shares, at an exercise price of $13 per share. Under the terms of the Preferred Shares, we are prohibited from paying dividends on and repurchasing our common shares until all Preferred Shares are redeemed. F-10 Contractual Obligations The following table summarizes contractual cash obligations as of December 31, 2022: (in thousands) Long-term debt: (a) Principal amounts Interest on debt Programming: (b) Program licenses, network affiliations and other programming commitments Employee compensation and benefits: Deferred compensation and other post-employment benefits Employment and talent contracts (c) Pension obligations (d) Leases (e) Other purchase and service commitments (f) Less than 1 Year Years 2 & 3 Years 4 & 5 Over 5 Years Total $ 18,612 $ 312,474 $ 1,155,268 $ 1,434,427 $ 2,920,781 174,891 323,808 212,922 85,911 797,532 793,599 1,270,457 403,542 33,693 2,501,291 1,302 92,084 1,411 28,566 62,953 2,884 84,444 13,911 47,545 45,162 2,833 6,216 30,728 19,542 26,561 2 182,746 5,450 51,500 37,189 136,378 249,678 3,971 62 112,148 Total contractual cash obligations $ 1,173,418 $ 2,100,685 $ 1,852,669 $ 1,715,465 $ 6,842,237 (a) — Refer to Note 11. Long-Term Debt of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Part II, Item 8 of this Form 10-K). Interest amounts included in the table may differ from amounts actually paid due to changes in LIBOR. (b) — Program licenses generally require payments over the terms of the licenses. Licensed programming includes both programs that have been delivered and are available for telecast and programs that have not yet been produced. It also includes payments for our broadcast television station network affiliation agreements and Scripps Networks carriage agreements with local television broadcasters. If the programs are not produced, our commitments would generally expire without obligation. Fixed fee amounts payable under our network affiliation and carriage agreements are also included. Variable amounts in excess of the contractual amounts payable to the networks and broadcasters are not included in the amounts above. (c) — We secure on-air talent for our television stations through multi-year talent agreements. Certain agreements may be terminated under certain circumstances or at certain dates prior to expiration. We expect our employment and talent contracts will be renewed or replaced with similar agreements upon their expiration. Amounts due under the contracts, assuming the contracts are not terminated prior to their expiration, are included in the contractual obligations table. (d) — Contractual commitments summarized include payments to meet minimum funding requirements of our defined benefit pension plans and estimated benefit payments for our unfunded SERPs. Contractual pension obligations reflect anticipated minimum statutory pension contributions as of December 31, 2022, based upon pension funding regulations in effect at the time and our current pension assumptions regarding discount rates and returns on plan assets. Actual funding requirements may differ from amounts presented due to changes in discount rates, returns on plan assets or pension funding regulations that are in effect at the time. Payments for the SERPs have been estimated over a ten-year period. Accordingly, the amounts in the "over 5 years" column include estimated payments for the periods of 2028-2032. While benefit payments under these plans are expected to continue beyond 2032, we do not believe it is practicable to estimate payments beyond this period. (e) — Refer to Note 9. Leases of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Part II, Item 8 of this Form 10-K). (f) — We obtain audience ratings, market research and certain other services under multi-year agreements. These agreements are generally not cancelable prior to expiration of the service agreement. We may also enter into contracts with certain vendors and suppliers. These contracts typically do not require the purchase of fixed or minimum quantities and generally may be terminated at any time without penalty. Included in the table are purchase orders placed as of December 31, 2022. The table does not include any reserves for income taxes recognized because we are unable to reasonably predict the ultimate amount or timing of settlement of our reserves for income taxes. As of December 31, 2022, our reserves for income taxes totaled $14.1 million, which is reflected as a long-term liability in our Consolidated Balance Sheet. F-11 Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires us to make a variety of decisions that affect reported amounts and related disclosures, including the selection of appropriate accounting principles and the assumptions on which to base accounting estimates. In reaching such decisions, we apply judgment based on our understanding and analysis of the relevant circumstances, including our historical experience, actuarial studies and other assumptions. We are committed to incorporating accounting principles, assumptions and estimates that promote the representational faithfulness, verifiability, neutrality and transparency of the accounting information included in the financial statements. Note 1 to our Consolidated Financial Statements describes the significant accounting policies we have selected for use in the preparation of our financial statements and related disclosures. We believe the following to be the most critical accounting policies, estimates and assumptions affecting our reported amounts and related disclosures. Acquisitions — The accounting for a business combination requires tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed to be recorded at estimated fair value. With the assistance of third party appraisals, we generally determine fair values using comparisons to market transactions and a discounted cash flow analysis. The use of a discounted cash flow analysis requires significant judgment to estimate the future cash flows derived from the asset and the expected period of time over which those cash flows will occur and to determine an appropriate discount rate. Changes in such estimates could affect the amounts allocated to individual identifiable assets. While we believe our assumptions are reasonable, if different assumptions were made, the amount allocated to intangible assets could differ substantially from the reported amounts. Goodwill and Other Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets — Goodwill for each reporting unit must be tested for impairment on an annual basis or when events occur or circumstances change that would indicate the fair value of a reporting unit is below its carrying value. If the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value, we would be required to record an impairment charge. The following is goodwill by reporting unit as of December 31, 2022: (in thousands) Local Media Scripps Networks Other Total goodwill $ 905,494 2,007,890 7,190 $ 2,920,574 For our annual goodwill impairment testing, we utilized the quantitative approach for performing our test. Under that approach, we determine the fair value of our reporting unit generally using market data, appraised values and discounted cash flow analyses. The use of a discounted cash flow analysis requires significant judgment to estimate the future cash flows derived from the business and the period of time over which those cash flows will occur, as well as to determine an appropriate discount rate. The determination of the discount rate is based on a cost of capital model, using a risk-free rate, adjusted by a stock-beta adjusted risk premium and a size premium. While we believe the estimates and judgments used in determining the fair values were appropriate, different assumptions with respect to future cash flows, long-term growth rates and discount rates, could produce a different estimate of fair value. The estimate of fair value assumes certain growth of our businesses, which, if not achieved, could impact the fair value and possibly result in an impairment of the goodwill. Our annual impairment testing for goodwill indicated that the fair value of our Local Media reporting unit exceeded its carrying value by 30% and the fair value of our Scripps Networks reporting unit exceeded its carrying value by 2.5%. A 50 basis point increase in the discount rate or a decrease of $25 million in the annual cash flows used in the discounted cash flow analysis could result in the fair value of the Scripps Networks reporting unit being less than carrying value. We have determined that our FCC licenses are indefinite lived assets and not subject to amortization. At December 31, 2022, the carrying value of our television FCC licenses was $780 million, which are tested for impairment annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that they might be impaired. We compare the estimated fair value of each individual FCC license to its carrying amount. If the carrying amount of an indefinite-lived intangible asset exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss is recognized. Fair value is estimated for our FCC licenses using a method referred to as the “Greenfield Approach”. This approach uses a discounted cash flow model that incorporates multiple assumptions relating to the future prospects of each individual FCC license, including market revenues, long-term growth projections, and estimated cash flows based on market size and station type. The fair value of the FCC license is sensitive to each of the assumptions used in the Greenfield Approach and a change in any individual assumption could result in the fair value being less than the carrying F-12 value of the asset and an impairment charge being recorded. For example, a 50 basis point increase in the discount rate would reduce the aggregate fair value of the FCC licenses by approximately $125 million. Pension Plans — We sponsor a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan as well as non-qualified Supplemental Executive Retirement Plans ("SERPs"). Both the defined benefit plan and the SERPs have frozen the accrual of future benefits. The measurement of our pension obligation and related expense is dependent on a variety of estimates, including: discount rates; expected long-term rate of return on plan assets; and employee turnover, mortality and retirement ages. We review these assumptions on an annual basis and make modifications to the assumptions based on current rates and trends when appropriate. In accordance with accounting principles, we record the effects of these modifications currently or amortize them over future periods. We consider the most critical of our pension estimates to be our discount rate and the expected long-term rate of return on plan assets. The assumptions used in accounting for our defined benefit pension plan for 2022 and 2021 are as follows: Discount rate for expense Discount rate for obligation Long-term rate of return on plan assets for expense 2022 2021 2.95 % 5.47 % 5.50 % 2.64 % 2.95 % 5.50 % The discount rate used to determine our future pension obligation is based upon a dedicated bond portfolio approach that includes securities rated Aa or better with maturities matching our expected benefit payments from the plans. The rate is determined each year at the plan measurement date and affects the succeeding year’s pension cost. Discount rates can change from year to year based on economic conditions that impact corporate bond yields. A 50 basis point increase or decrease in the discount rate would decrease or increase our pension obligation as of December 31, 2022 by approximately $22.3 million and decrease or increase 2023 pension expense by approximately $1.0 million. Under our asset allocation strategy, approximately 55% of plan assets are invested in a portfolio of fixed income securities with a duration approximately that of the projected payment of benefit obligations. The remaining 45% of plan assets are invested in equity securities and other return-seeking assets. The expected long-term rate of return on plan assets is based primarily upon the target asset allocation for plan assets and capital markets forecasts for each asset class employed. A decrease in the expected rate of return on plan assets increases pension expense. A 50 basis point change in the 2023 expected long-term rate of return on plan assets would increase or decrease our 2023 pension expense by approximately $2.3 million. We had unrecognized accumulated other comprehensive loss related to net actuarial losses for our pension plan and SERPs of $102.4 million at December 31, 2022. Unrealized actuarial gains and losses result from deferred recognition of differences between our actuarial assumptions and actual results. In 2022, we had an actuarial loss of $9.1 million. Recent Accounting Guidance Refer to Note 2. Recently Adopted and Issued Accounting Standards of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Part II, Item 8 of this Form 10-K) for further discussion. F-13 Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk Earnings and cash flow can be affected by, among other things, economic conditions and interest rate changes. We are also exposed to changes in the market value of our investments. Our objectives in managing interest rate risk are to limit the impact of interest rate changes on our earnings and cash flows, and to reduce overall borrowing costs. We may use derivative financial instruments to modify exposure to risks from fluctuations in interest rates. In accordance with our policy, we do not use derivative instruments unless there is an underlying exposure, and we do not hold or enter into financial instruments for speculative trading purposes. We are subject to interest rate risk associated with our credit agreement, as borrowings bear interest at LIBOR plus respective fixed margin spreads or spreads determined relative to our Company’s leverage ratio. Accordingly, the interest we pay on our borrowings is dependent on interest rate conditions and the timing of our financing needs. A 100 basis point increase in LIBOR would increase annual interest expense on our variable rate borrowings by approximately $15.8 million. The following table presents additional information about market-risk-sensitive financial instruments: (in thousands) Financial instruments subject to interest rate risk: Revolving credit facility Senior secured notes, due in 2029 Senior unsecured notes, due in 2027 Senior unsecured notes, due in 2031 Term loan, due in 2024 Term loan, due in 2026 Term loan, due in 2028 As of December 31, 2022 As of December 31, 2021 Cost Basis Fair Value Cost Basis Fair Value $ — $ — $ — $ 523,356 425,667 392,071 284,250 736,437 559,000 426,535 384,697 316,107 279,631 725,850 545,025 550,000 484,655 477,958 287,250 744,049 667,000 — 553,377 508,282 488,712 286,999 744,168 667,740 Long-term debt, including current portion $ 2,920,781 $ 2,677,845 $ 3,210,912 $ 3,249,278 Financial instruments subject to market value risk: Investments held at cost $ 20,890 (a) $ 15,431 (a) (a) Includes securities that do not trade in public markets, thus the securities do not have readily determinable fair values. We estimate the fair value of these securities approximates their carrying value. Controls and Procedures Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures The effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) was evaluated as of the date of the financial statements. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision of and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that the design and operation of these disclosure controls and procedures are effective. There were no changes to the Company's internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f)) during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting. F-14 Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting Scripps’ management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal controls designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The Company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: 1. 2. 3. pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and the directors of the Company; and provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations, including the possibility of human error, collusion and the improper overriding of controls by management. Accordingly, even effective internal control can only provide reasonable, but not absolute assurance with respect to financial statement preparation. Further, because of changes in conditions, the effectiveness of internal control may vary over time. As required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002, management assessed the effectiveness of The E.W. Scripps Company and subsidiaries' (the “Company”) internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022. Management’s assessment is based on the criteria established in the Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based upon our assessment, management believes that the Company maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022. The Company’s independent registered public accounting firm has issued an attestation report on our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022.

Symson President and Chief Executive Officer /s/ Jason Combs Jason Combs Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer F-15 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of The E.W. Scripps Company Opinion on the Financial Statements We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of The E.W. Scripps Company and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss), cash flows and equity, for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2022, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2022, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated February 24, 2023, expressed an unqualified opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Basis for Opinion These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. Critical Audit Matter The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current-period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates. Valuation of Scripps Networks’ Goodwill — Refer to Note 10 to the financial statements Critical Audit Matter Description The Company tests goodwill for impairment, including within the Scripps Networks reporting unit (“Scripps Networks”), on at least an annual basis, with an annual impairment testing date during the fourth quarter of each year. Within the Company’s quantitative annual impairment testing, the fair value of Scripps Networks is compared to its carrying value. As of December 31, 2022, Scripps Networks’ goodwill balance was approximately $2 billion. We identified the valuation of Scripps Networks as a critical audit matter because of the significant estimates and assumptions management utilized in determining such fair value. These estimates and assumptions required a high degree of auditor judgment and an increased extent of effort when performing audit procedures to evaluate the reasonableness of management’s forecasts of future cash flows as well as the selection of the discount rate and long-term growth rate, including the need to involve our fair value specialists. F-16 How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit Our audit procedures related to the projected future cash flows as well as the selection of the discount rate and long-term growth rate for purposes of estimating the fair value of Scripps Networks included the following, among others: • We inquired of management to understand the process being used by the Company to determine the valuation of Scripps Networks. • We tested the design and operating effectiveness of the Company’s internal controls over the valuation of Scripps Networks, including controls over forecasts of projected future cash flows as well as the selection of the discount rate and long-term growth rate. • We evaluated the reasonableness of management’s projected future cash flows by comparing the forecasts to: • • • • Historical cash flows.

F-17 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of The E.W. Scripps Company Opinion on Internal Control over Financial Reporting We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of The E.W. Scripps Company and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2022, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by COSO. We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2022, of the Company and our report dated February 24, 2023, expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements. Basis for Opinion The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. /s/ Deloitte & Touche LLP Cincinnati, Ohio February 24, 2023 F-18 The E.W.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies As used in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, the terms “Scripps,” “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us” may, depending on the context, refer to The E.W. Scripps Company, to one or more of its consolidated subsidiary companies or to all of them taken as a whole. Nature of Operations — We are a diverse media enterprise, serving audiences and businesses through a portfolio of local television stations and national news and entertainment networks. All of our businesses provide content and services via digital platforms, including the Internet, smartphones and tablets. Our media businesses are organized into the following reportable business segments: Local Media, Scripps Networks and Other. Additional information for our business segments is presented in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. Basis of Presentation — Certain amounts in the prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current period's presentation. Our presentation for operating revenues in 2022 includes a new caption titled “Distribution” revenues. This caption includes amounts that were previously reported within our “Retransmission and carriage” revenue caption and also includes subscription revenues that were previously captured within our “Other” revenue caption. Amounts previously reported in 2021 and 2020 within these prior revenue captions have been reclassified to conform to the 2022 presentation. Concentration Risks — Our operations are geographically dispersed and we have a diverse customer base. We believe bad debt losses resulting from default by a single customer, or defaults by customers in any depressed region or business sector, would not have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. We derive approximately 72% of our operating revenues from advertising. Changes in the demand for such services, both nationally and in individual markets, can affect operating results. Use of Estimates — Preparing financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires us to make a variety of decisions that affect the reported amounts and the related disclosures. Such decisions include the selection of accounting principles that reflect the economic substance of the underlying transactions and the assumptions on which to base accounting estimates. In reaching such decisions, we apply judgment based on our understanding and analysis of the relevant circumstances, including our historical experience, actuarial studies and other assumptions. Our financial statements include estimates and assumptions used in accounting for our defined benefit pension plans; the periods over which long-lived assets are depreciated or amortized; the fair value of long-lived assets, goodwill and indefinite lived assets; the liability for uncertain tax positions and valuation allowances against deferred income tax assets; the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations; and self-insured risks. While we re-evaluate our estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis, actual results could differ from those estimated at the time of preparation of the financial statements. Consolidation — The Consolidated Financial Statements include our accounts and those of our wholly-owned and majority- owned subsidiaries and variable interest entities ("VIEs") for which we are the primary beneficiary. We are the primary beneficiary of a VIE when we have the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the economic performance of the VIE and have the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive returns that would be significant to the VIE. Noncontrolling interest represents an owner’s share of the equity in certain of our consolidated entities. All intercompany transactions and account balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Investments in entities over which we have significant influence but not control are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Income from equity method investments represents our proportionate share of net income generated by equity method investees. F-24 Nature of Products and Services — The following is a description of principal activities from which we generate revenue. Core Advertising — Core advertising is comprised of sales to local and national customers. The advertising includes a combination of broadcast air time, as well as digital advertising. Pricing of advertising time is based on audience size and share, the demographic of our audiences and the demand for our limited inventory of commercial time. Advertising time is sold through a combination of local and national sales staff and national sales representative firms. Digital revenues are primarily generated from the sale of advertising to local and national customers on our local television websites, smartphone apps, tablet apps and other platforms. Political Advertising — Political advertising is generally sold through our Washington D.C. sales office. Advertising is sold to presidential, gubernatorial, Senate and House of Representative candidates, as well as for state and local issues. It is also sold to political action groups (PACs) or other advocacy groups. Distribution Revenues — We earn revenues from cable operators, satellite carriers, other multi-channel video programming distributors (collectively "MVPDs"), other online video distributors and subscribers for access rights to our broadcast signals. These arrangements are generally governed by multi-year contracts and the fees we receive are typically based on the number of subscribers the respective distributor has and the contracted rate per subscriber. Refer to Note 16. Segment Information for further information, including revenue by significant product and service offering. Revenue Recognition — Revenue is measured based on the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for promised goods or services provided to customers, and excludes any amounts collected on behalf of third parties. Revenue is recognized upon transfer of control of promised products or services to customers. Advertising — Advertising revenue is recognized, net of agency commissions, over time primarily as ads are aired or impressions are delivered and any contracted audience guarantees are met. We apply the practical expedient to recognize revenue at the amount we have the right to invoice, which corresponds directly to the value a customer has received relative to our performance. For advertising sold based on audience guarantees, audience deficiency may result in an obligation to deliver additional advertisements to the customer. To the extent that we do not satisfy contracted audience ratings, we record deferred revenue until such time that the audience guarantee has been satisfied. Distribution — Our primary source of distribution revenue is from retransmission consent contracts with MVPDs. Retransmission revenues are considered licenses of functional intellectual property and are recognized at the point in time the content is transferred to the customer. MVPDs report their subscriber numbers to us generally on a 30- to 90-day lag. Prior to receiving the MVPD reporting, we record revenue based on estimates of the number of subscribers, utilizing historical levels and trends of subscribers for each MVPD. Cost of Revenues — Cost of revenues reflects the cost of providing our broadcast signals, programming and other content to respective distribution platforms. The costs captured within the cost of revenues caption include programming, content distribution, satellite transmission fees, production and operations and other direct costs. Cash Equivalents — Cash equivalents represent highly liquid investments with maturity of less than three months when acquired. Contract Balances — Timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of cash collection from customers. We record a receivable when revenue is recognized prior to cash receipt, or unearned revenue when cash is collected in advance of revenue being recognized. We extend credit to customers based upon our assessment of the customer’s financial condition. Collateral is generally not required from customers. Payment terms may vary by contract type, although our terms generally include a requirement of payment within 30 to 90 days. In instances where the timing of revenue recognition differs from the timing of invoicing, we have determined our contracts do not include a significant financing component. The primary purpose of our invoicing terms is to provide customers with simplified and predictable ways of purchasing our products and services. F-25 The allowance for doubtful accounts reflects our best estimate of probable losses inherent in the accounts receivable balance. We determine the allowance based on known troubled accounts, historical experience and other currently available evidence. A rollforward of the allowance for doubtful accounts is as follows: (in thousands) January 1, 2020 Charged to costs and expenses Amounts charged off, net Balance as of December 31, 2020 Charged to costs and expenses Amounts charged off, net Balance as of December 31, 2021 Charged to costs and expenses Amounts charged off, net Balance as of December 31, 2022 $ $ 3,346 3,305 (3,208) 3,443 1,987 (1,174) 4,256 1,674 (967) 4,963 We record unearned revenue when cash payments are received in advance of our performance. We generally require advance payment for advertising contracts with political advertising customers. Unearned revenue totaled $18.2 million at December 31, 2022 and is expected to be recognized within revenue over the next 12 months. Unearned revenue totaled $20.0 million at December 31, 2021. We recorded $16.4 million of revenue in 2022 that was included in unearned revenue at December 31, 2021. Assets Recognized from the Costs to Obtain a Contract with a Customer — We recognize an asset for the incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer if we expect the benefit of those costs to be longer than one year. We apply and use the practical expedient in the revenue guidance to expense costs as incurred for costs to obtain a contract when the amortization period is one year or less. This expedient applies to advertising sales commissions since advertising contracts are short-term in nature. Investments — From time to time, we make investments in private companies. Investment securities can be impacted by various market risks, including interest rate risk, credit risk and overall market volatility. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities, it is reasonably possible that changes in the values of investment securities will occur in the near term. Such changes could materially affect the amounts reported in our financial statements. We record investments in private companies not accounted for under the equity method at cost, net of impairment write- downs, because no readily determinable market price is available. We regularly review our investments to determine if there has been any other-than-temporary decline in value. These reviews require management judgments that often include estimating the outcome of future events and determining whether factors exist that indicate impairment has occurred. We evaluate, among other factors, the extent to which cost exceeds fair value; the duration of the decline in fair value below cost; and the current cash position, earnings and cash forecasts and near- term prospects of the investee. We reduce the cost basis when a decline in fair value below cost is determined to be other than temporary, with the resulting adjustment charged against earnings. Property and Equipment — Property and equipment is carried at cost less depreciation. We compute depreciation using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives as follows: Buildings and improvements Leasehold improvements Broadcast transmission towers and related equipment Other broadcast and program production equipment Computer hardware Office and other equipment 15 to 45 years Shorter of term of lease or useful life 15 to 35 years 3 to 15 years 3 to 5 years 3 to 10 years F-26 Programming — Programming includes the cost of national television network programming, programming produced by us or for us by independent production companies and programs licensed under agreements with independent producers. Our network affiliation agreements require the payment of affiliation fees to the network. Network affiliation fees consist of pre-determined fixed fees in all cases and variable payments based on a share of retransmission revenues above the fixed fees for some of our agreements. Program licenses principally consist of television series and films. Program licenses generally have fixed terms, limit the number of times we can air the programs and require payments over the terms of the licenses. We record licensed program assets and liabilities when the license period has commenced and the programs are available for broadcast. We do not discount program licenses for imputed interest. We amortize program licenses based upon expected cash flows over the term of the license agreement. The costs of programming produced by us or for us by independent production companies is charged to expense over estimated useful lives based upon expected future cash flows. The realizable value of internal costs incurred for trial footage at Court TV, including employee compensation and benefits, are capitalized and amortized based upon expected future cash flows. All other internal costs to produce daily or live broadcast shows, such as news, sports or daily magazine shows, are expensed as incurred. Progress payments on programs not yet available for broadcast are recorded as deposits within programming assets. Program assets are predominantly monetized as a group on each of our respective national networks, broadcast television stations and digital content offerings. For program assets predominantly monetized within a network or television station group, when an event or change in circumstances indicates a change in the expected usefulness of the content or that the fair value may be less than unamortized costs, fair value of the content is aggregated at the group level by considering expected future revenue generation. Estimates of future revenues consider historical airing patterns and future plans for airing content, including any changes in strategy. An impairment charge is recorded if the fair value of a film group is less than the film group’s carrying value. Programming and development costs for programs we have determined will not be produced, are fully expensed in the period the determination is made. For our program assets available for broadcast, estimated amortization for each of the next five years is $149.9 million in 2023, $106.1 million in 2024, $64.8 million in 2025, $45.3 million in 2026, $23.6 million in 2027 and $11.3 million thereafter. Actual amortization in each of the next five years will exceed the amounts currently recorded as program assets available for broadcast, as we will continue to produce and license additional programs. The unamortized balance of program assets are classified as non-current assets in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. Program rights liabilities payable within the next twelve months are included as current liabilities and noncurrent program rights liabilities are included in other noncurrent liabilities. FCC Repack — In April 2017, the Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) began a process of reallocating the broadcast spectrum (“repack”). Specifically, the FCC is requiring certain television stations to change channels and/or modify their transmission facilities. The U.S. Congress passed legislation which provides the FCC with a fund to reimburse all reasonable costs incurred by stations operating under a full power license and a portion of the costs incurred by stations operating under a low power license that are reassigned to new channels. We recorded a FCC repack receivable for the amount of reimbursable costs due from the FCC, which totaled $0.8 million at December 31, 2021. The total amount of consideration currently due or that has been collected from the FCC is recorded as a deferred liability and will be recognized against depreciation expense in the same manner that the underlying FCC repack fixed assets are depreciated. Deferred FCC repack income totaled $46.2 million at December 31, 2022 and $48.0 million at December 31, 2021. Leases — We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets, other current liabilities and operating lease liabilities in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. Finance leases are included in property and equipment, other current liabilities and other long-term liabilities in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As the implicit rate is not readily determinable for most of our leases, we use our incremental borrowing rate when determining the present value of lease payments. The incremental borrowing rate represents an estimate of the interest rate we would incur at lease commencement to borrow an amount equal to F-27 the lease payments on a collateralized basis over the term of the lease. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any payments made at or before commencement and is reduced by any lease incentives. Our lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Goodwill and Other Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets — Goodwill represents the cost of acquisitions in excess of the acquired businesses’ tangible assets and identifiable intangible assets. FCC licenses represent the value assigned to the broadcast licenses of acquired broadcast television stations. Broadcast television stations are subject to the jurisdiction of the FCC, which prohibits the operation of stations except in accordance with an FCC license. FCC licenses stipulate each station’s operating parameters as defined by channels, effective radiated power and antenna height. FCC licenses are granted for a term of up to eight years, and are renewable upon request. We have never had a renewal request denied and all previous renewals have been for the maximum term. We do not amortize goodwill or our FCC licenses, but we review them for impairment at least annually or any time events occur or conditions change that would indicate it is more likely than not the fair value of a reporting unit is below its carrying value. We perform our annual impairment review during the fourth quarter of each year in conjunction with our annual planning cycle. We also assess, at least annually, whether our FCC licenses, classified as indefinite-lived intangible assets, continue to have indefinite lives. We review goodwill for impairment based upon our reporting units, which are defined as operating segments or groupings of businesses one level below the operating segment level. Reporting units with similar economic characteristics are aggregated into a single unit when testing goodwill for impairment. Our reporting units are Local Media, Scripps Networks and Nuvyyo. Amortizable Intangible Assets — Television network affiliations represents the value assigned to an acquired broadcast television station’s relationship with a national television network. Television stations affiliated with national television networks typically have greater profit margins than independent television stations, primarily due to audience recognition of the television station as a network affiliate. We amortize these network affiliation relationships on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives of 20 years. We amortize customer lists and other intangible assets in relation to their expected future cash flows over estimated useful lives of up to 20 years. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets — We review long-lived assets (primarily property and equipment and amortizable intangible assets) for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate the carrying amounts of the assets may not be recoverable. Recoverability is determined by comparing the aggregate forecasted undiscounted cash flows derived from the operation of the assets to the carrying amount of the assets. If the aggregate undiscounted cash flow is less than the carrying amount of the assets, then amortizable intangible assets are written down first, followed by other long-lived assets, to fair value. We determine fair value based on discounted cash flows or appraisals. We report long-lived assets to be disposed of at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. Self-Insured Risks — We are self-insured, up to certain limits, for general and automobile liability, employee health, disability and workers’ compensation claims and certain other risks. Estimated liabilities for unpaid claims totaled $10.4 million at December 31, 2022 and $10.2 million at December 31, 2021. We estimate liabilities for unpaid claims using actuarial methodologies and our historical claims experience. While we re-evaluate our assumptions and review our claims experience on an ongoing basis, actual claims paid could vary significantly from estimated claims, which would require adjustments to expense. Income Taxes — We recognize deferred income taxes for temporary differences between the tax basis and reported amounts of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in future years. We establish a valuation allowance if we believe that it is more likely than not that we will not realize some or all of the deferred tax assets. We record a liability for unrecognized tax benefits resulting from uncertain tax positions taken or that we expect to take in a tax return. Interest and penalties associated with such tax positions are included in the tax provision. The liability for additional taxes and interest is included in other liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Risk Management Contracts — We do not hold derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes and we do not hold leveraged contracts. From time to time, we may use derivative financial instruments to limit the impact of interest rate fluctuations on our earnings and cash flows. F-28 Stock-Based Compensation — We have a Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) which is described more fully in Note 18. The Plan provides for the award of incentive and nonqualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock units ("RSUs") and unrestricted Class A Common shares and performance units to key employees and non-employee directors. We recognize compensation cost based on the grant-date fair value of the award. We determine the fair value of awards that grant the employee the underlying shares by the fair value of a Class A Common share on the date of the award. Certain awards of RSUs have performance conditions under which the number of shares granted is determined by the extent to which such performance conditions are met (“Performance Shares”). Compensation costs for such awards are measured by the grant-date fair value of a Class A Common share and the number of shares earned. In periods prior to completion of the performance period, compensation costs are based upon estimates of the number of shares that will be earned. Compensation costs are recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award. The impact of forfeitures is recognized as they occur. The requisite service period is generally the vesting period stated in the award. Grants to retirement-eligible employees are expensed immediately and grants to employees who will become retirement eligible prior to the end of the stated vesting period are expensed over such shorter period because stock compensation grants vest upon the retirement eligibility of the employee. Earnings Per Share (“EPS”) — Unvested awards of share-based payments with rights to receive dividends or dividend equivalents, such as our RSUs, are considered participating securities for purposes of calculating EPS. Under the two-class method, we allocate a portion of net income to these participating securities and therefore exclude that income from the calculation of EPS for common stock. We do not allocate losses to the participating securities. The following table presents information about basic and diluted weighted-average shares outstanding: (in thousands) Numerator (for basic and diluted earnings per share) For the years ended December 31, 2022 2021 2020 Income from continuing operations, net of tax $ 195,902 $ 115,899 $ 153,564 Less income allocated to RSUs Less preferred stock dividends Numerator for basic and diluted earnings per share Denominator Basic weighted-average shares outstanding Effect of dilutive securities Diluted weighted-average shares outstanding (3,662) (1,855) (3,711) (50,305) 141,935 $ (49,372) 64,672 $ — 149,853 $ 83,220 4,126 87,346 82,327 5,652 87,979 81,418 413 81,831 For the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2020, there were 0.1 million and 0.4 million of outstanding RSUs that were anti-dilutive. On May 14, 2021, we amended our common stock warrant agreement with Berkshire Hathaway. Prior to the May 14, 2021 amendment of the common stock warrant agreement, the basic and dilutive EPS calculations excluded the impact of the common stock warrant as the effect would have been anti-dilutive. Following the amendment date, the EPS calculations include the dilutive impact of the common stock warrant. 2. Recently Adopted and Issued Accounting Standards In November 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued new guidance for entities to provide certain disclosures for material government assistance transactions that are accounted for by applying a grant or contribution accounting model by analogy. The guidance was effective for our 2022 annual reporting period and did not have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures. In October 2021, the FASB issued new guidance requiring entities to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination in accordance with the revenue from contracts with customers accounting standard. The guidance will generally result in an entity recognizing contract assets and contract liabilities at amounts consistent with those recorded by the acquiree immediately before the acquisition date rather than at fair value. The guidance is effective on a prospective basis for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, with early adoption permitted. We adopted the new F-29 guidance effective January 1, 2022. The adoption of the guidance did not have an impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements. In May 2021, the FASB issued new guidance that clarifies an issuer's accounting for certain modifications or exchanges of freestanding equity-classified written call options that remain equity classified after modification or exchange. Specifically, the guidance provides a "principles-based framework to determine whether an issuer should recognize the modification or exchange as an adjustment to equity or an expense." The guidance was effective for all entities with fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We adopted the new guidance effective January 1, 2022. The adoption of the guidance did not have an impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements. In March 2020, the FASB issued new guidance that provides optional expedients and exceptions to certain accounting requirements to facilitate the transition away from the use of the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") and other interbank offered rates. The guidance was effective as of March 12, 2020 and the sunset date of the guidance was deferred to December 31, 2024, subject to meeting certain criteria, that have contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. We evaluate transactions and contract modifications occurring as a result of reference rate reform and determine whether to apply the optional guidance on an ongoing basis. 3. Acquisitions Nuvyyo Acquisition On January 5, 2022, we acquired Nuvyyo for net cash consideration totaling $13.8 million. Nuvyyo provides consumers DVR product solutions to watch and record free over-the-air HDTV on connected devices. The final purchase price allocation assigned $7.2 million to intangible assets with useful lives ranging from three to five years, $7.2 million to goodwill and the remainder was allocated to various working capital and deferred tax liability accounts. The goodwill, which is not tax deductible, reflects the synergies and increased market penetration expected from combining the operations of Nuvyyo with Scripps. We allocated the goodwill to our Other segment. ION Acquisition On January 7, 2021, we completed the acquisition of national broadcast network ION Media Networks, Inc. ("ION") for $2.65 billion. ION is a national network of broadcast stations and is the largest holder of U.S. broadcast television spectrum. The business distributes its programming through owned Federal Communications Commission-licensed television stations as well as affiliated TV stations, reaching 100 million of U.S. homes through its over-the-air broadcast and pay TV platforms. The acquisition of ION enabled us to create a full-scale national television networks business by combining the ION network with our other news and entertainment networks. The transaction was financed with a combination of cash, debt financing and preferred equity financing, including Berkshire Hathaway's $600 million preferred equity investment in Scripps. Berkshire Hathaway also received a warrant to purchase up to 23.1 million Class A shares, at an exercise price of $13 per share. To comply with ownership rules of the Federal Communications Commission, we simultaneously divested 23 of ION's television stations for a total consideration of $30 million, which were purchased by INYO Broadcast Holdings, LLC upon completion of the acquisition. These divested stations became independent affiliates of ION pursuant to long-term affiliation agreements. F-30 The following table summarizes the net cash consideration for the ION transaction. (in thousands) Total purchase price Plus: Cash acquired Plus: Working capital Total transaction gross cash consideration Less: Proceeds from ION stations divested Total transaction net cash consideration Less: Cash acquired Total consideration, net of cash acquired $ 2,650,000 14,493 57,755 2,722,248 (30,000) 2,692,248 (14,493) $ 2,677,755 The following table summarizes the final fair values of the ION assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the closing date. (in thousands) Accounts receivable Other current assets Programming rights Property and equipment Operating lease right-of-use assets Other assets Goodwill Indefinite-lived intangible assets - FCC licenses Amortizable intangible assets: INYO affiliation agreement Other affiliation relationships Advertiser relationships Trade names Accounts payable Unearned revenue Accrued expenses Current portion of programming liabilities Other current liabilities Programming liabilities Deferred tax liabilities Operating lease liabilities Other long-term liabilities Total consideration, net of cash acquired $ 135,006 25,353 169,027 122,520 72,717 2,295 1,796,148 424,200 422,000 22,000 143,000 72,000 (9,674) (13,043) (15,814) (92,721) (24,810) (191,837) (265,291) (78,438) (36,883) $ 2,677,755 Of the value allocated to amortizable intangible assets, the INYO affiliation agreement has an estimated amortization period of 20 years, advertiser relationships have an estimated amortization period of 7 years, other affiliation relationships have an estimated amortization period of 10 years and the value allocated to trade names has an estimated amortization period of 10 years. F-31 The goodwill of $1.8 billion arising from the transactions consists largely of synergies, economies of scale and other benefits of a larger national broadcast footprint and becoming the largest holder of broadcast spectrum. We allocated the goodwill to our Scripps Networks segment. The transaction is accounted for as a stock acquisition which applies carryover tax basis to the assets and liabilities acquired. The goodwill is not deductible for income tax purposes. KCDO Television Station On November 20, 2020, we closed on the acquisition of the KCDO television station in the Denver, Colorado market. Included in the sale was KSBS-CD, a lower power translator of KCDO. Consideration for the transaction totaled $9.6 million. The purchase price allocation attributed value of $6.9 million to the acquired FCC license, $1.7 million to goodwill, $0.9 million to property and equipment and the remainder to various working capital accounts. Pro forma results of operations Pro forma results of operations, assuming the ION acquisition had taken place at the beginning of 2020, are presented in the following table. The pro forma results do not include Nuvyyo or KCDO, as the impact of these acquisitions, individually or in the aggregate, is not material to prior year results of operations. The pro forma information includes the historical results of operations of Scripps and ION (excluding the results of the divested stations sold to INYO), as well as adjustments for additional depreciation and amortization of the assets acquired, additional interest expense related to the financing of the transactions and other transactional adjustments. The pro forma results do not include efficiencies, cost reductions or synergies expected to result from the acquisition, or retrospective fair value adjustments to the warrant. The unaudited pro forma financial information is not necessarily indicative of the results that actually would have occurred had the acquisition been completed at the beginning of the period. (in thousands, except per share data) (unaudited) Operating revenues Net income attributable to Scripps shareholders Net income per share: Basic Diluted For the years ended December 31, 2021 2020 $ $ 2,290,254 $ 101,146 2,395,650 275,658 1.19 $ 1.12 3.30 3.29 Pro forma results in 2020 include $47.5 million of non-recurring transaction costs. The pro forma results in 2021 reflect a $38.1 million reversal of ION transaction costs incurred that were already captured in the 2020 pro forma results. 4. Asset Write-Downs and Other Charges and Credits Income from continuing operations before income taxes was affected by the following: 2022 — Acquisition and related integration costs were $1.6 million during 2022. During 2022, we redeemed $59.0 million of the 2027 Senior Notes, $26.6 million of the 2029 Senior Notes and $85.9 million of the 2031 Senior Notes. The redemptions resulted in a gain on extinguishment of debt of $8.6 million, as the notes were redeemed for total consideration below par value of the notes. 2021 —Acquisition and related integration costs of $40.4 million primarily reflect investment banking, legal and professional service costs incurred to complete and integrate the ION Media Networks, Inc. ("ION") acquisition, which closed on January 7, 2021. Restructuring costs totaled $9.4 million in 2021 due to the Newsy restructuring plan. In the first quarter, we incurred costs of $7.1 million for the write-downs of both capitalized carriage agreement payments and certain Newsy intangible assets. The additional Newsy restructuring charges were primarily attributed to employee severance, relocation costs and Nielsen contract costs. We completed the building sale for our Denver KMGH television station in the third quarter of 2021. The sale resulted in recognition of a pre-tax gain totaling $32.6 million. We redeemed the outstanding principal amount of our 2025 Senior Notes during the second quarter of 2021. Additionally, F-32 during the fourth quarter of 2021, we redeemed $15.4 million of the 2027 Senior Notes and $22.0 million of the 2031 Senior Notes. These redemptions resulted in a loss on extinguishment of debt of $15.3 million, representing the premiums paid on the notes and write-offs of unamortized debt financing costs. During the first quarter of 2021, we completed the sale of our Triton business. The sale generated total net proceeds of $225 million and we recognized a pre-tax gain from disposition totaling $81.8 million. Related to our outstanding common stock warrant, we recognized non-cash charges totaling $99.1 million in 2021. The warrant obligation was being marked-to-market each reporting period with the increase in our common stock price being the significant contributor to higher valuation. Following an amendment to the common stock warrant agreement on May 14, 2021, the fair value of the warrant was reclassified to equity and is no longer marked-to-market each reporting period. 2020 — Acquisition and related integration costs of $18.7 million reflect contract termination costs and professional service costs incurred to integrate the Cordillera and Nexstar-Tribune television stations, as well as costs incurred leading up to the ION acquisition, which closed on January 7, 2021. 5. Income Taxes We file a consolidated federal income tax return, consolidated unitary returns in certain states, other separate state income tax returns for certain of our subsidiary companies, and applicable foreign returns. The provision for income taxes from continuing operations consisted of the following: (in thousands) Current: Federal State and local Foreign Total current income tax provision (benefit) Deferred: Federal State and local Foreign Total deferred income tax provision Provision for income taxes For the years ended December 31, 2022 2021 2020 $ 56,236 $ 52,145 $ (13,235) 11,411 — 67,647 2,882 10,770 (738) 12,914 9,096 (48) 2,478 107 61,193 (10,650) 6,616 3,087 293 9,996 57,755 8,902 (551) 66,106 55,456 $ 80,561 $ 71,189 $ The difference between the statutory rate for federal income tax and the effective income tax rate was as follows: Statutory rate Effect of: State and local income taxes, net of federal tax benefit Non-deductible mark-to-market losses Excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation Nondeductible expenses Reserve for uncertain tax positions Other Effective income tax rate For the years ended December 31, 2022 2021 2020 21.0 % 21.0 % 21.0 % 7.0 — (0.3) 0.2 0.7 0.5 5.6 11.5 (0.9) 0.2 (0.8) 1.5 29.1 % 38.1 % 4.5 — 0.5 0.4 0.7 (0.6) 26.5 % A non-deductible expense of $102.6 million was recorded in 2021 related to preferred stock issuance costs and unrealized losses on mark-to-market adjustments recorded on the common stock warrant issued in connection with the ION acquisition. F-33 The approximate effect of the temporary differences giving rise to deferred income tax assets (liabilities) were as follows: (in thousands) Temporary differences: Property and equipment Goodwill and other intangible assets Investments, primarily gains and losses not yet recognized for tax purposes Accrued expenses not deductible until paid Deferred compensation and retiree benefits not deductible until paid Operating lease right-of-use assets Operating lease liabilities Interest limitation carryforward Other temporary differences, net Total temporary differences Federal and state net operating loss carryforwards Valuation allowance for state deferred tax assets Net deferred tax liability As of December 31, 2022 2021 $ (46,710) $ (54,292) (390,105) (378,978) 5,165 7,897 32,174 (36,843) 39,099 6,375 7,305 2,886 10,867 37,317 (31,507) 33,174 7 12,354 (375,643) (368,172) 20,283 (15,097) 23,863 (12,468) $ (370,457) $ (356,777) Total state operating loss carryforwards were $436 million at December 31, 2022. Our state tax loss carryforwards expire through 2041. Because we file separate state income tax returns for certain of our subsidiary companies, we are not able to use state tax losses of a subsidiary company to offset state taxable income of another subsidiary company. The Company recognizes state net operating loss carryforwards as deferred tax assets, subject to valuation allowances. At each balance sheet date, we estimate the amount of carryforwards that are not expected to be used prior to expiration of the carryforward period. The tax effect of the carryforwards that are not expected to be used prior to their expiration is included in the valuation allowance. The Company has not provided for income taxes, including withholding tax, U.S. state taxes, or tax on foreign exchange rate changes, associated with the undistributed earnings of our non-U.S. subsidiaries because we plan to indefinitely reinvest the unremitted earnings in these entities. On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (the "CARES Act") was enacted and signed into law. The CARES Act includes several provisions for corporations including increasing the amount of deductible interest, allowing companies to carryback certain net operating losses (“NOLs”) and increasing the amount of NOLs that corporations can use to offset income. The CARES Act did not materially affect our year-to-date income tax provision. We received an additional tax refund of $14.0 million from the carryback of NOLs to prior periods in October 2020. On December 27, 2020, the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021 was signed and enacted into law, which provided an additional stimulus package providing financial relief for individuals and small businesses. The Appropriations Act contains a variety of tax provisions, including full expensing of business meals in 2021 and 2022, an expansion of the Paycheck Protection Program, and expansion of the employee retention tax credit. We continue to evaluate the Appropriations Act, but do not currently expect it to have a material impact on our income tax provision. In July and August 2022, the CHIPS and Science Act, (the “CHIPS Act”), and the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, (the “IRA”), were signed into law. The IRA introduced a 15% corporate alternative minimum tax, or CAMT, on adjusted financial statement income for corporations with profits in excess of $1 billion, effective for tax years after December 31, 2022. While further guidance on the implementation of the CAMT is expected, we do not expect it will have a material impact to our 2023 effective tax rate. We also do not expect that CHIPS will have a material impact. The IRA also includes a stock buyback excise tax of 1% on share repurchases, which will apply to net stock buybacks after December 31, 2022. We do not expect this to have a material impact if and when share repurchases are resumed. F-34 A reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances of the total amounts of gross unrecognized tax benefits is as follows: (in thousands) For the years ended December 31, 2022 2021 2020 Gross unrecognized tax benefits at beginning of year $ 10,572 $ 2,376 $ Increases in tax positions for prior years Decreases in tax positions for prior years Increases in tax positions for current years Increases (decreases) from lapse in statute of limitations Decreases due to settlements with taxing authorities 2,965 (390) 796 (173) 22,348 — 3,164 (4,234) (1,646) (13,082) 576 166 (141) 1,661 114 — Gross unrecognized tax benefits at end of year $ 12,124 $ 10,572 $ 2,376 The total amount of net unrecognized tax benefits that, if recognized, would affect the effective tax rate was $12.1 million at December 31, 2022. We accrue interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in our provision for income taxes. At December 31, 2022 and 2021, we had accrued interest related to unrecognized tax benefits of $0.9 million and $1.5 million, respectively, and penalties of $1.2 million and $0.9 million, respectively. We file income tax returns in the U.S., Canada and in various state and local jurisdictions. We are routinely examined by tax authorities in these jurisdictions. At December 31, 2022, we are no longer subject to federal income tax examinations for years prior to 2018. For state and local jurisdictions, we are generally no longer subject to income tax examinations for years prior to 2018. Due to the potential for resolution of federal and state examinations, and the expiration of various statutes of limitation, it is reasonably possible that our gross unrecognized tax benefits balance may change within the next twelve months by as much as $0.6 million. 6. Restricted Cash At December 31, 2021, we had restricted cash of $34.3 million. The balance reflected restricted cash held in escrow from the KMGH Denver television station building sale, which was received in January 2022. F-35 7. Investments Investments consisted of the following: (in thousands) Investments held at cost Equity method investments Total investments As of December 31, 2022 2021 $ $ 20,890 $ 2,254 23,144 $ 15,431 6,201 21,632 Our investments do not trade in public markets, thus they do not have readily determinable fair values. We estimate the fair values of the investments to approximate their carrying values at December 31, 2022 and 2021. 8. Property and Equipment Property and equipment consisted of the following: (in thousands) Land and improvements Buildings and improvements Equipment Computer software Total Accumulated depreciation Net property and equipment As of December 31, 2022 2021 $ 65,559 $ 245,531 580,001 29,702 920,793 462,193 $ 458,600 $ 65,559 204,819 575,920 29,029 875,327 418,382 456,945 F-36 9. Leases We have operating leases for office space, data centers and certain equipment. We also have finance leases for office space. Our leases have remaining lease terms of 1 year to 36 years, some of which may include options to extend the leases for up to 5 years, and some of which may include options to terminate the leases within 1 year. Operating lease costs recognized in our Consolidated Statements of Operations for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 totaled $25.9 million and $24.3 million, including short-term lease costs of $1.7 million and $1.8 million, respectively.

Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are tested for impairment annually and any time events occur or conditions change that would indicate it is more likely than not the fair value of a reporting unit, or respective indefinite-lived intangible assets, is below its carrying value. Such indicators of impairment include, but are not limited to, changes in business climate or other factors resulting in low cash flow related to such assets. We determine fair values using market data, appraised values and discounted cash flow analyses. The use of a discounted cash flow analysis requires significant judgment to estimate the future cash flows derived from the business and the period of time over which those cash flows will occur, as well as to determine an appropriate discount rate. The determination of the discount rate is based on a cost of capital model, using a risk-free rate, adjusted by a stock-beta adjusted risk premium and a size premium. While we believe the estimates and judgments used in determining the fair values were appropriate, different assumptions with respect to future cash flows, long-term growth rates and discount rates, could produce different estimates of fair value. If the fair value of a reporting unit, or respective FCC license, is less than its carrying value, then an impairment exists and an impairment charge is recorded. F-39 11.

Scripps Senior Secured Credit Agreement On January 7, 2021, we entered into the Sixth Amendment to the Third Amended Restated Credit Agreement ("Sixth Amendment"). Under the Sixth Amendment, we have a $400 million revolving credit facility ("Revolving Credit Facility") that matures on the earlier of January 2026 or 91 days prior to the stated maturity date for any of our existing loans and our existing unsecured notes that mature within the facility's term. Commitment fees of 0.30% to 0.50% per annum, based on our leverage ratio, of the total unused commitment are payable under the Revolving Credit Facility. Interest is payable on the Revolving Credit Facility at rates based on LIBOR, plus a margin based on our leverage ratio, ranging from 1.75% to 2.50%. The weighted-average interest rate over the period during which we had a drawn revolver balance in 2022 was 4.65%. As of December 31, 2022, we had no borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, we had outstanding letters of credit totaling $7.1 million and $6.9 million, respectively, under the Revolving Credit Facility. On October 2, 2017, we issued a $300 million term loan B which matures in October 2024 ("2024 term loan"). Interest is currently payable on the 2024 term loan at a rate based on LIBOR, plus a fixed margin of 2.00%. Interest will reduce to a rate of LIBOR plus a fixed margin of 1.75% if the Company's total net leverage, as defined by the amended agreement, is below 2.75. The 2024 term loan requires annual principal payments of $3 million. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the interest rate on the 2024 term loan was 6.38% and 2.10%, respectively. The weighted-average interest rate on the 2024 term loan was 5.67% and 2.09% in 2022 and 2021, respectively. On May 1, 2019, we issued a $765 million term loan B ("2026 term loan") that matures in May 2026. Interest is currently payable on the 2026 term loan at a rate based on LIBOR, plus a fixed margin of 2.56%. The 2026 term loan requires annual principal payments of $7.6 million. Deferred financing costs and an original issuance discount totaled approximately $23.0 million with this term loan, which are being amortized over the life of the loan. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the interest rate on the 2026 term loan was 6.95% and 3.31%, respectively. The weighted-average interest rate on the 2026 term loan was 6.23% and 3.31% in 2022 and 2021, respectively. Under the Sixth Amendment, we also issued an $800 million term loan B ("2028 term loan") that contributed to the financing of the ION acquisition. The term loan matures in 2028 with interest payable at rates based on LIBOR, plus a fixed margin of 3.00%. Additionally, the Sixth Amendment provided that the LIBOR rate could not be less than 0.75% for our term loans that mature in 2026 and 2028. The 2028 term loan requires annual principal payments of $8.0 million. We incurred deferred financing costs totaling $23.4 million related to this term loan and the amendment to the Revolving Credit Facility, which are being amortized over the life of the term loan. F-40 As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the interest rate on the 2028 term loan was 7.13% and 3.75%, respectively. The weighted-average interest rate on the 2028 term loan was 6.42% and 3.75% in 2022 and 2021, respectively. The Senior Secured Credit Agreement contains covenants that limit our ability to incur additional debt and provides for restrictions on certain payments (dividends and share repurchases). Additionally, we must be in compliance with certain leverage ratios in order to proceed with acquisitions. Our credit agreement also includes a provision that in certain circumstances we must use a portion of excess cash flow to repay debt. We granted the lenders pledges of our equity interests in our subsidiaries and security interests in substantially all other personal property including cash, accounts receivables and equipment. In addition, the Revolving Credit Facility contains a covenant to comply with a maximum first lien net leverage ratio of 4.50 to 1.0 when we have outstanding borrowings on the facility. As of December 31, 2022, we were in compliance with our financial covenants. 2029 Senior Secured Notes On December 30, 2020, we issued $550 million of senior secured notes (the "2029 Senior Notes"), which bear interest at a rate of 3.875% per annum and mature on January 15, 2029. The proceeds of the 2029 Senior Notes were deposited into a segregated escrow account. The escrow account was subsequently released on January 7, 2021 and used toward the financing of the ION acquisition (See Note 3). The 2029 Senior Notes were priced at 100% of par value and interest is payable semi- annually on January 15 and July 15, commencing on July 15, 2021. Prior to January 15, 2024 we may redeem up to 40% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2029 Senior Notes at a redemption price of 103.875% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption. We may also redeem some or all of the 2029 Senior Notes before January 15, 2024 at a redemption price of 100% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date plus a "make whole" premium. On or after January 15, 2024 and before January 15, 2026, we may redeem the notes, in whole or in part, at applicable redemption prices noted in the indenture agreement. If we sell certain of our assets or have a change of control, the holders of the 2029 Senior Notes may require us to repurchase some or all of the notes. Our credit agreement also includes a provision that in certain circumstances we must use a portion of excess cash flow to repay debt. The 2029 Senior Notes are guaranteed by us and the majority of our subsidiaries and are secured on equal footing with the obligations under the Senior Secured Credit Agreement. Following the release of the proceeds from escrow on January 7, 2021, the notes became secured, on a first lien basis, from pledges of equity interests in our subsidiaries and by substantially all of the existing and future assets of Scripps. The 2029 Senior Notes contain covenants with which we must comply that are typical for borrowing transactions of this nature. We incurred approximately $13.8 million of deferred financing costs in connection with the issuance of the 2029 Senior Notes, which are being amortized over the life of the notes. 2027 Senior Unsecured Notes On July 26, 2019, we issued $500 million of senior unsecured notes, which bear interest at a rate of 5.875% per annum and mature on July 15, 2027 ("the 2027 Senior Notes"). The 2027 Senior Notes were priced at 100% of par value and interest is payable semi-annually on July 15 and January 15. We may redeem the notes before July 15, 2025, in whole or in part, at applicable redemption prices noted in the indenture agreement. If we sell certain of our assets or have a change of control, the holders of the 2027 Senior Notes may require us to repurchase some or all of the notes. The 2027 Senior Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by certain of our existing and future domestic restricted subsidiaries. The 2027 Senior Notes contain covenants with which we must comply that are typical for borrowing transactions of this nature. There are no registration rights associated with the 2027 Senior Notes. We incurred approximately $10.7 million of deferred financing costs in connection with the issuance of the 2027 Senior Notes, which are being amortized over the life of the notes. F-41 2031 Senior Unsecured Notes On December 30, 2020, we issued $500 million of senior unsecured notes (the "2031 Senior Notes"), which bear interest at a rate of 5.375% per annum and mature on January 15, 2031. The proceeds of the 2031 Senior Notes were deposited into a segregated escrow account. The escrow account was subsequently released on January 7, 2021 and used toward the financing of the ION acquisition (See Note 3). The 2031 Senior Notes were priced at 100% of par value and interest is payable semi- annually on January 15 and July 15, commencing on July 15, 2021. Prior to January 15, 2024 we may redeem up to 40% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2031 Senior Notes at a redemption price of 105.375% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption. We may also redeem some or all of the 2031 Senior Notes before January 15, 2026 at a redemption price of 100% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date plus a "make whole" premium. On or after January 15, 2026 and before January 15, 2029, we may redeem the notes, in whole or in part, at applicable redemption prices noted in the indenture agreement. If we sell certain of our assets or have a change of control, the holders of the 2031 Senior Notes may require us to repurchase some or all of the notes. The 2031 Senior Notes are also guaranteed by us and the majority of our subsidiaries. The 2031 Senior Notes contain covenants with which we must comply that are typical for borrowing transactions of this nature. We incurred approximately $12.5 million of deferred financing costs in connection with the issuance of the 2031 Senior Notes, which are being amortized over the life of the notes. Debt Repurchase Authorization In February 2023, our Board of Directors provided a new debt repurchase authorization, pursuant to which we may reduce, through redemptions or open market purchases and retirement, a combination of the outstanding principal balance of our senior secured and senior unsecured notes. The authorization permits an aggregate principal amount reduction of up to $500 million and expires on March 1, 2026. Our previous debt repurchase authorization was due to expire on March 1, 2023. Debt Repurchase Transactions During the first quarter of 2022, we redeemed $42.2 million of our 2027 Senior Notes at a weighted-average redemption price equal to 100.61% of the aggregate principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest, $26.6 million of our 2029 Senior Notes at a weighted-average redemption price equal to 93.59% of the aggregate principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest and $54.5 million of our 2031 Senior Notes at a weighted-average redemption price equal to 95.73% of the aggregate principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest. The redemptions resulted in a gain on extinguishment of debt of $1.2 million, as the notes were redeemed for total consideration below par value of the notes. During the fourth quarter of 2022, we redeemed $16.8 million of our 2027 Senior Notes at a weighted-average redemption price equal to 90.63% of the aggregate principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest and $31.4 million of our 2031 Senior Notes at a weighted-average redemption price equal to 78.71% of the aggregate principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest. The redemptions resulted in a gain on extinguishment of debt of $7.4 million, for a total gain on extinguishment of debt of $8.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. During 2022, we made additional principal payments on the 2028 term loan totaling $100 million and wrote-off $1.1 million of deferred financing costs related to this term loan to interest expense. On May 15, 2021, we redeemed the $400 million outstanding principal amount of our senior unsecured notes that were due to mature in 2025. The redemption price was equal to 102.563% of the aggregate principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest. The redemption resulted in a loss on extinguishment of debt of $13.8 million, representing the premium paid to retire the notes and write-off of unamortized debt financing costs. During the fourth quarter of 2021, we redeemed $15.4 million of our 2027 Senior Notes at a weighted-average redemption price equal to 103.94% of the aggregate principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest and $22.0 million of our 2031 Senior Notes at a weighted-average redemption price equal to 101.13% of the aggregate principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest. The redemptions resulted in a loss on extinguishment of debt of $1.5 million, for a total loss on extinguishment of debt of $15.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. During 2021, we made additional principal payments on the 2028 term loan totaling $125 million and wrote-off $3.1 million of deferred financing costs related to this term loan to interest expense. F-42 12. Fair Value Measurement We measure certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis, such as cash equivalents. The fair values of these financial assets were determined based on three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable, that may be used to measure fair value. These levels of input are as follows: • • • Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 — Inputs, other than quoted market prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly. Level 3 — Unobservable inputs based on our own assumptions. The following tables set forth our assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis at December 31, 2022 and 2021: (in thousands) Cash equivalents (in thousands) Cash equivalents 13. Other Liabilities Other liabilities consisted of the following: (in thousands) Employee compensation and benefits Deferred FCC repack income Programming liability Liability for pension benefits Liabilities for uncertain tax positions Finance leases Other December 31, 2022 Total Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 $ 27 $ 27 $ — $ — December 31, 2021 Total Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 $ 32,536 $ 32,536 $ — $ — As of December 31, 2022 2021 $ 25,916 $ 46,205 263,093 78,279 14,144 28,063 28,359 29,175 47,977 352,686 102,831 12,280 — 30,989 Other liabilities (less current portion) $ 484,059 $ 575,938 14.

Restricted Cash, the December 31, 2021 restricted cash balance reflects cash held in escrow from the KMGH Denver television station building sale, which was received in January 2022. The December 31, 2020 restricted cash balance represents the senior secured notes and senior unsecured notes proceeds that were segregated as financing for the January 7, 2021 closing of the ION Media Networks, Inc. acquisition. 15. Employee Benefit Plans We sponsor a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan and non-qualified Supplemental Executive Retirement Plans ("SERPs"). Both the defined benefit plan and the SERPs have frozen the accrual of future benefits. We sponsor a defined contribution plan covering substantially all non-union and certain union employees. We match a portion of employees' voluntary contributions to this plan. Other union-represented employees are covered by defined benefit pension plans jointly sponsored by us and the union, or by union-sponsored multi-employer plans. We use a December 31 measurement date for our retirement plans. Retirement plans expense is based on valuations as of the beginning of each year. The components of the expense consisted of the following: (in thousands) Interest cost Expected return on plan assets, net of expenses Amortization of actuarial loss and prior service cost Total for defined benefit plans Multi-employer plans SERPs Defined contribution plan Net periodic benefit cost Allocated to discontinued operations Net periodic benefit cost - continuing operations For the years ended December 31, 2021 2020 2022 $ $ 17,332 $ (24,900) 4,034 (3,534) — 921 15,257 12,644 — 12,644 $ 16,465 $ (23,235) 6,210 (560) — 903 14,394 14,737 — 14,737 $ 19,799 (21,016) 4,672 3,455 5 933 14,074 18,467 (522) 17,945 Other changes in plan assets and benefit obligations recognized in other comprehensive income (loss) were as follows: (in thousands) Actuarial gain/(loss) Amortization of actuarial loss and prior service cost Total For the years ended December 31, 2022 2021 2020 $ $ (12,703) $ 27,318 $ 4,034 6,210 (8,669) $ 33,528 $ (5,296) 4,672 (624) F-44 In addition to the amounts summarized above, amortization of actuarial losses related to our SERPs recognized through other comprehensive income was $0.3 million in 2022, 2021 and 2020. We recognized actuarial gains for our SERPs of $3.6 million and $0.3 million in 2022 and 2021, respectively, and an actuarial loss of $1.0 million in 2020. Assumptions used in determining the annual retirement plans expense were as follows: Discount rate Long-term rate of return on plan assets 2022 2021 2020 2.95 % 5.50 % 2.64% 5.50 % 3.40% 5.50 % The discount rate used to determine our future pension obligations is based on a dedicated bond portfolio approach that includes securities rated Aa or better with maturities matching our expected benefit payments from the plans. The expected long-term rate of return on plan assets is based upon the weighted-average expected rate of return and capital market forecasts for each asset class employed. Changes in other key actuarial assumptions affect the determination of the benefit obligations as of the measurement date and the calculation of net periodic benefit costs in subsequent periods. Obligations and Funded Status — The defined benefit pension plan obligations and funded status are actuarially valued as of the end of each year. The following table presents information about our employee benefit plan assets and obligations: (in thousands) Change in projected benefit obligation: Defined Benefit Plan SERPs For the years ended December 31, 2022 2021 2022 2021 Projected benefit obligation at beginning of year $ 603,309 $ 637,165 $ 18,023 $ 18,890 509 (1,541) (3,598) 13,393 — — 1,541 Interest cost Benefits paid Actuarial (gains)/losses 17,332 (33,521) (137,098) 16,465 (31,616) (18,705) Projected benefit obligation at end of year 450,022 603,309 Plan assets: Fair value at beginning of year Actual return on plan assets Company contributions Benefits paid Fair value at end of year Funded status Amounts recognized in Consolidated Balance Sheets: Current liabilities Noncurrent liabilities Total Amounts recognized in accumulated other comprehensive loss consist of: Net actuarial loss Prior service cost 492,827 31,848 24,089 517,148 (124,901) 24,999 (33,521) 383,725 (66,297) $ (31,616) 517,148 (86,161) $ (1,541) — (13,393) $ — $ — $ (1,411) $ (66,297) (86,161) (11,982) (66,297) $ (86,161) $ (13,393) $ $ $ $ $ 98,884 $ 90,197 $ 3,467 $ 352 370 — 473 (1,028) (312) 18,023 — — 1,028 (1,028) — (18,023) (1,353) (16,670) (18,023) 7,364 — During 2022 and 2021, net actuarial gains decreased our benefit obligation primarily due to a year-over-year increase in the discount rate assumption. The recognized actuarial gains/losses are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and are reflected in the table above. F-45 Information for plans with an accumulated benefit obligation and projected benefit obligation in excess of plan assets was as follows: (in thousands) Accumulated benefit obligation Projected benefit obligation Fair value of plan assets Defined Benefit Plan SERPs As of December 31, 2022 2021 2022 2021 $ 450,022 $ 603,309 $ 13,393 $ 450,022 383,725 603,309 517,148 13,393 — 18,023 18,023 — Assumptions used to determine the defined benefit pension plan benefit obligation were as follows: Weighted average discount rate 2022 2021 2020 5.47 % 2.95 % 2.64 % In 2023, we expect to contribute $1.4 million to fund our SERPs. We have met regulatory funding requirements for our qualified defined benefit pension plan and do not have a mandatory contribution in 2023. Estimated future benefit payments expected to be paid from the plans for the next ten years are $33.3 million in 2023, $33.9 million in 2024, $34.4 million in 2025, $34.7 million in 2026, $35.1 million in 2027 and a total of $175.9 million for the five years ending 2032. Plan Assets and Investment Strategy Our long-term investment strategy for pension assets is to earn a rate of return over time that minimizes future contributions to the plan while reducing the volatility of pension assets relative to pension liabilities. The strategy reflects the fact that we have frozen the accrual of service credits under our plans which cover the majority of employees. We evaluate our asset allocation target ranges for equity, fixed income and other investments annually. We monitor actual asset allocations quarterly and adjust as necessary. We control risk through diversification among multiple asset classes, managers and styles. Risk is further monitored at the manager and asset class level by evaluating performance against appropriate benchmarks. Information related to our pension plan asset allocations by asset category were as follows: US equity securities Non-US equity securities Fixed-income securities Other Total Target allocation 2023 Percentage of plan assets as of December 31, 2022 2021 13 % 27 % 55 % 5 % 100 % 13 % 31 % 55 % 1 % 100 % 15 % 35 % 49 % 1 % 100 % U.S. equity securities include common stocks of large, medium and small capitalization companies, which are predominantly U.S. based. Non-U.S. equity securities include companies domiciled outside of the U.S. and American depository receipts. Fixed-income securities include securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government, mortgage backed securities and corporate debt obligations. Other investments include real estate funds and cash equivalents. Under our asset allocation strategy, approximately 55% of plan assets are invested in a portfolio of fixed income securities with a duration approximately that of the projected payment of benefit obligations. The remaining 45% of plan assets are invested in equity securities and other return-seeking assets. The expected long-term rate of return on plan assets is based primarily upon the target asset allocation for plan assets and capital markets forecasts for each asset class employed. F-46 The following table presents our plan assets as of December 31, 2022 and 2021: (in thousands) Equity securities Common/collective trust funds Fixed income Common/collective trust funds Cash equivalents Fair value of plan assets As of December 31, 2022 2021 $ 170,867 $ 261,810 210,226 2,632 252,731 2,607 $ 383,725 $ 517,148 Our investments are valued using net asset value as a practical expedient as allowed under U.S. GAAP and therefore are not valued using the fair value hierarchy. Equity securities-common/collective trust funds and fixed income-common/collective trust funds are comprised of shares or units in commingled funds that are not publicly traded. The underlying assets in these funds (equity securities and fixed income securities) are publicly traded on exchanges and price quotes for the assets held by these funds are readily available. Common/collective trust funds are typically valued at their net asset values that are calculated by the investment manager or sponsor of the fund and have daily or monthly liquidity. 16. Segment Information We determine our business segments based upon our management and internal reporting structure, as well as the basis that our chief operating decision maker makes resource allocation decisions. Our Local Media segment includes our 61 local broadcast stations and their related digital operations. It is comprised of 18 ABC affiliates, 11 NBC affiliates, nine CBS affiliates and four FOX affiliates. We also have 12 CW affiliates - four on full power stations and eight on multicast; five independent stations and 10 additional low power stations. Our Local Media segment earns revenue primarily from the sale of advertising to local, national and political advertisers and retransmission fees received from cable operators, telecommunication companies, satellite carriers and over-the-top virtual MVPDs. Our Scripps Networks segment is comprised of nine national television networks that reach nearly every U.S. television home through free over-the-air broadcast, cable/satellite, connected TV and digital distribution. These operations earn revenue primarily through the sale of advertising. Our respective business segment results reflect the impact of intercompany carriage agreements between our local broadcast television stations and our national networks. We also allocate a portion of certain corporate costs and expenses, including accounting, procurement, human resources, employee benefit and information technology to our business segments. These intercompany agreements and allocations are generally amounts agreed upon by management, which may differ from an arms-length amount. The other segment caption aggregates our operating segments that are too small to report separately. Costs for centrally provided services and certain corporate costs that are not allocated to the business segments are included in shared services and corporate costs. These unallocated corporate costs would also include the costs associated with being a public company. Corporate assets are primarily cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, property and equipment primarily used for corporate purposes and deferred income taxes. Our chief operating decision maker evaluates the operating performance of our business segments and makes decisions about the allocation of resources to our business segments using a measure called segment profit. Segment profit excludes interest, defined benefit pension plan amounts, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, impairment charges, divested operating units, restructuring activities, investment results and certain other items that are included in net income (loss) determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Minimum payments on such contractual commitments at December 31, 2022 were: $856.5 million in 2023, $752.3 million in 2024, $563.3 million in 2025, $321.5 million in 2026, $86.0 million in 2027 and $33.8 million in later years. We expect these contracts will be replaced with similar contracts upon their expiration. We are involved in litigation arising in the ordinary course of business, such as defamation actions and governmental proceedings primarily relating to renewal of broadcast licenses, none of which is expected to result in material loss. F-49 18. Capital Stock and Share-Based Compensation Plans Capital Stock — We have two classes of common shares, Common Voting shares and Class A Common shares. The Class A Common shares are only entitled to vote on the election of the greater of three or one-third of the directors and other matters as required by Ohio law. In connection with the January 7, 2021 closing of the ION acquisition, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with Berkshire Hathaway Inc., (“Berkshire Hathaway”), pursuant to which Berkshire Hathaway provided $600 million of financing in exchange for 6,000 Series A Preferred Shares of the Company. The Preferred Shares, having a face value of $100,000 per share, are perpetual and will be redeemable at the option of the Company beginning on the fifth anniversary of issuance, and redeemable at the option of the holders in the event of a Change of Control (as defined in the terms of the Preferred Shares), in each case at a redemption price of 105% of the face value, plus accrued and unpaid dividends (whether or not declared). As long as the Company pays quarterly dividends in cash on the Preferred Shares, the dividend rate will be 8% per annum. If dividends on the Preferred Shares, which compound quarterly, are not paid in full in cash, the rate will increase to 9% per annum for the remaining period of time that the Preferred Shares are outstanding. Preferred stock dividends were $48.0 million and $45.1 million in 2022 and 2021, respectively. Class A Common Shares Stock Warrant — In connection with the Preferred Shares issuance, Berkshire Hathaway also received a warrant to purchase up to 23.1 million Class A shares, at an exercise price of $13 per share. The warrant is exercisable at the holder’s option at any time or from time to time, in whole or in part, until the first anniversary of the date on which no Preferred Shares remain outstanding. Since the holder had the option to settle the warrant through cash payment of the exercise price and/or through surrendering portions of their Preferred Shares for the stated par value, a liability was recognized for the fair value of the warrant. The valuation model, classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, included inputs for the estimated term of the warrant, the historical volatility rate of Scripps common stock and the exercise price for the warrant. At time of issuance, the fair value of the warrant totaled $181 million and was being remeasured each reporting period with the changes in fair value of the warrant captured in the gains/losses on stock warrant caption in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. On May 14, 2021, the warrant agreement was amended to only permit settlement of the warrant through cash payment of the exercise price. Following the warrant amendment, the warrant is no longer accounted for as a liability award where mark-to- market changes in the fair value of the warrant are captured as gains or losses in our operating results. The fair value of the warrant was remeasured on May 14, 2021 at $280 million. The increase in our stock price during 2021 was the primary contributor to the increase in the fair value of the warrant. The value of the liability on the amendment date was reclassified to equity within the caption Additional Paid-in Capital. Share Repurchase Plan — Shares may be repurchased from time to time at management's discretion. Shares can be repurchased under the authorization via open market purchases or privately negotiated transactions, including accelerated stock repurchase transactions, block trades, or pursuant to trades intending to comply with Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. In November 2016, our Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program of up to $100 million of our Class A Common shares. We repurchased a total of $50.3 million of shares under this authorization prior to its expiration on March 1, 2020. In February 2020, our Board of Directors authorized a new share repurchase program of up to $100 million of our Class A Common shares through March 1, 2022. No shares were repurchased under either authorization during 2022, 2021 or 2020. Under the terms of the Preferred Shares, we are prohibited from paying dividends on and repurchasing our common shares until all Preferred Shares are redeemed. Incentive Plans — The Company has a long-term incentive plan (the “Plan”) that permits the granting of incentive and nonqualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock units ("RSUs"), restricted and unrestricted Class A Common shares and performance units to key employees and non-employee directors. We satisfy stock option exercises and vested stock awards with newly issued shares. We have not issued any new stock options since 2008. As of December 31, 2022, approximately 4.6 million shares were available for future stock compensation awards. Restricted Stock Units — Awards of RSUs generally require no payment by the employee. RSUs are converted into an equal number of Class A Common shares when vested. These awards generally vest over a three or four year period, conditioned upon the individual’s continued employment through that period. Awards vest immediately upon the retirement, death or disability of the employee or upon a change in control of Scripps or in the business in which the individual is employed. Unvested awards may be forfeited if employment is terminated for other reasons. Awards are nontransferable during the vesting period, but the awards are entitled to all the rights of an outstanding share, including receiving stock dividend equivalents. There are no post-vesting restrictions on awards granted to employees and non-employee directors. F-50 Long-term incentive compensation includes performance share awards. Performance share awards represent the right to receive an award of RSUs if certain performance measures are met. Each award specifies a target number of shares to be issued and the specific performance criteria that must be met. The number of shares that an employee receives may be less or more than the target number of shares depending on the extent to which the specified performance measures are met or exceeded. The following table summarizes our RSU activity: Unvested at December 31, 2019 Awarded Vested Forfeited Unvested at December 31, 2020 Awarded Vested Forfeited Unvested at December 31, 2021 Awarded Vested Forfeited Unvested at December 31, 2022 Fair Value Number of Shares Weighted Average Range of Prices 1,358,438 $ 18.68 $ 11-24 1,588,134 (739,633) (15,280) 2,191,659 1,375,565 (1,060,685) (121,043) 2,385,496 1,867,083 (1,147,220) (57,074) 3,048,285 8.86 11.52 13.37 12.22 22.63 20.32 16.19 17.25 19.19 21.20 20.07 18.57 7-12 7-17 8-23 7-23 14-23 15-24 9-23 9-23 14-22 11-22 9-23 9-23 The following table summarizes additional information about RSU vesting: (in thousands) Fair value of RSUs vested Tax benefits realized on vesting Share-based Compensation Costs Share-based compensation costs were as follows: (in thousands) Total share-based compensation Included in discontinued operations Included in continuing operations Share-based compensation, net of tax For the years ended December 31, 2022 2021 2020 $ 24,321 $ 21,548 $ 5,902 5,101 8,518 2,019 For the years ended December 31, 2021 2020 2022 $ $ $ 21,596 $ 22,334 $ 14,507 — 21,596 $ 16,355 $ — 22,334 $ 17,047 $ (492) 14,015 10,694 As of December 31, 2022, $33.1 million of total unrecognized compensation costs related to RSUs and performance shares is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.3 years.

These amounts are included within the defined benefit pension plan expense caption on our Consolidated Statements of Operations. See Note 15. Employee Benefit Plans for additional information. 20. Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations Stitcher On October 16, 2020, we closed on the sale of our Stitcher podcasting business. Stitcher is classified as discontinued operations in our Consolidated Financial Statements. Operating results of our discontinued Stitcher business were as follows: (in thousands) Operating revenues Total costs and expenses Depreciation and amortization of intangible assets Other, net Loss from operations Pretax gain on disposal Gain from discontinued operations before income taxes Provision for income taxes Income from discontinued operations, net of tax For the years ended December 31, 2021 2020 $ $ — $ (600) — — (600) 9,572 8,972 (2,159) 6,813 $ 57,573 (88,599) (1,157) (174) (32,357) 182,589 150,232 (34,463) 115,769 During 2021, the estimate for the contingent earnout consideration was increased by $9.1 million. In the third quarter of 2021, we received payment of $19.1 million for the 2020 earnout period. No value was assigned to the 2021 contingent earnout consideration. Stitcher’s discontinued operating results in 2020 included a contract termination charge that totaled $12 million. The 2020 gain on disposal for Stitcher reflected a $10 million fair value estimate for the contingent earnout consideration. F-52 Triton Digital During the first quarter of 2021, our Board of Directors approved the sale of our Triton Digital business. On February 16, 2021, we signed a definitive agreement to sell the business and the transaction closed on March 31, 2021. The sale generated total net proceeds of $225 million and we recognized a pre-tax gain from disposition totaling $81.8 million. WPIX When we acquired the Nexstar-Tribune television stations in 2019, we granted Nexstar the option to repurchase WPIX, the CW-affiliated station in New York City. The option was exercisable from March 31, 2020, through the end of 2021, and was assignable by Nexstar to a third party. In July 2020, Nexstar assigned their option to repurchase WPIX to Mission Broadcasting, Inc., and Mission immediately exercised the option. The option price was $75 million plus accrued interest, to be calculated on the period between September 19, 2019, the purchase date of WPIX, and the option sale closing date. The transaction closed on December 30, 2020 for cash consideration of $83.7 million. Including interest income of $7.6 million, we recognized gains from the WPIX disposition totaling $6.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2020.
