VALUATION OF NON-COMMERCIAL (NCE) & NON-PROFITABLE STATIONS
POPS valuations are the industry standard for determining the Fair Market Value of non-commercial (NCE) and non-profitable stations.
Please call or email us to discuss our special non-profit stick value pricing.
POPS valuation is based on the Population Covered by the station (POPS). In our reports we develop a regional multiple based on actual recent similar station sales for the surrounding states, and also nationally. We then compare it with current similar multiples.
The POPS FMV report will provide an accurate value for any radio station without significant cash flow, as well as for NCE stations.
The report can typically be delivered in five days. Additional stations for the same owner, prepared at the same time, can be added for a small additional fee. The fee will include a telephone review to answer any questions.
POPS Value Report Contents:
- Station and market description, including the population covered by the station's contours.
- A FMV Calculation based on all recent actual regional station sales for the subject state, and each surrounding state.
- A FMV Calculation based on current national broadcast standards and multiple.
Please email or call with any questions and fee information. Please complete the Order Form on the next page and submit it to us.
Our POPS Report is a good tool to use when you are contemplating an acquisition, particularly of a non-performing non-commercial property.
