Good day, and welcome to the Beasley Broadcast Group 2014 First Quarter Results Conference call. Today's conference is being recorded. At this time, I will turn the conference over to Caroline Beasley. Please go ahead.

Management

Thank you, and good morning. Welcome to the Beasley Broadcast Group First Quarter Webcast. Before beginning, I'd like to emphasize that this webcast will contain forward-looking statements about our future performance and results of operations that involve risks and uncertainties described in the Risk Factors section of our most recent Form 10-K.

On a positive note, digital revenue increased approximately 14.5% during the quarter, and our Fayetteville cluster was the shining star as it generated a double-digit revenue increase. We have 5 markets that report to Miller Kaplan, and these markets account for almost 80% of our revenue.…
