Thank you very much and good morning, everyone. I'd like to thank you for joining both Tom Carter and me on the call this morning to discuss our record Q3 operating results. It's also election day in America, one of the hallmarks of our democracy in a day of anticipation, excitement or dread depending on your political point of view. I have a deep and abiding faith in our democracy and the people of our country and regardless of the results tonight. I am confident that our republic will survive, so now let's get to the numbers. Our record financial performance reflects ongoing benefits from our results focused operating discipline including tight management of our ad inventory, initiatives to leverage our local footholds and diversify through retransmission consent and digital media revenues and our precise execution of value building acquisitions and integrations. We are optimistic as we look toward the conclusion of 2016 based on the fact that year-to-date as of this morning, we have well exceeded our guidance for $100 million and full-year political revenue, while simultaneously reporting low single digit core revenue growth and continued double digit growth from retransmission and digital media revenue streams in Q3. Nexstar's record third quarter financial results were highlighted by core revenue growth, our ability to maximize the Olympic and political revenue opportunities, growing retransmission consent revenues, impressive digital media growth and the ongoing benefits of our management and operating disciplines. These factors drove record third quarter net revenue, broadcast cash flow and adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow and we brought about 21% of every net revenue dollar to the free cash flow line. Reflecting the benefit of scale on the strong operating leverage in our business models, Nexstar's 23.6% rise in third quarter net revenue resulted in 30.4% growth in…

Thanks, Perry. And good morning everybody. I'll start with a review of Nexstar's Q3 income statement and balance sheet data, afterwards, I'll provide an update on our capital structure and some points of guidance. Net revenue for Q3 of 2016 were $275.7 million which was up almost 24% over the same period in the prior year. Core revenue on a GAAP basis was up 4.4% to $131.4 million, driven by a local revenue increase of 7.8% and almost $95 million. As Perry mentioned, political revenue for the Q3 2016 timeframe was $25.5 million, up substantially over the same period in the prior year. Retransmission fees were $98.3 million, which was up almost 23% over the same period, and digital media revenues were up 42% for the third quarter of 2016, to approximately $28.6 million. From a profitability perspective, a record broadcast cash flow was almost a $110 million, up 30% over the same period of prior year. Adjusted EBITDA was up 34% to $98.2 million, and free cash flow was $58.5 million, which was up almost 27%. On a same-station basis, net revenue was up 14%, local spot revenue was flat for the quarter, and core spot revenue was down less than 1%. Despite, the allocation of ad inventory to higher political ad spending while some station – while same-station retrans rose approximately 15% and same station digital media revenues were up 20%. The corollary to that is same station fixed expenses net of programming expense were flat for the quarter. Third quarter station direct operating expenses, net of trade expense and SG&A expenses rose 28.2% and 14.5% respectively. The increases reflect higher variable costs related to increased advertising revenues, our expanded local programming on our existing stations and the operation of the recently acquired stations and digital assets. Nexstar's…

Thank you very much, Tom. In addition to the election day excitement and anticipation, and today's conformation that we will indeed exceed our political guidance target of $100 million for 2016. We are additionally excited, because today we stand at the precipitous of completing our transformative acquisition of Media General, which will make us the second largest local television broadcasting company in the United States. Pro forma for our announced divestitures, the new Nexstar Media Group will own or operate 171 television stations in 100 markets, serving 38.9% of all U.S. television households. To put it another way, better than one in three households in America will be able to get their news and information from a Nexstar television station. We're very proud of the fact that everyone in the organization from our board to our employees, takes the obligation to serve our own communities very seriously and we take our responsibility to deliver growth and value to our shareholders every bit as seriously. Our record third quarter and year-to-date results again highlight the value of the operating, acquisition, integration, cost management, and strategies around our capital structure that we've successfully deployed since our founding in 1996. We're competitive as any other medium in today's multi-platform world because we provide superior local content that is unique and relevant to each of the local communities we serve across the U.S., while offering local businesses, advertisers and brands unparalleled 24x7 marketing opportunities across all our screens and all our devices. Our increased scale will allow us to create new news bureaus in more state capitals than any other broadcaster and Nexstar Media Group in total will produce over 3,400 hours a week of local news, while employing almost 10,000 individuals. As it relates to election day, we will increase the support and…

We'll take our first question from James Dix of Wedbush Securities. Please go ahead.

Good morning, guys. I got three questions. I guess, first, any estimate of the displacement of core advertising by political in 3Q and 4Q, especially given the patterns of spending they've been different than a typical presidential year? Secondly, just any color on auto spending growth in 3Q, sounds like it was up, anything more on that? And then what's your outlook for the fourth quarter? And then finally, how should we be thinking about your M&A strategy, I think Tom mentioned a little bit kind of selective M&A, but after the Media General transaction closes considering, you want to deleverage but also that there is some potential to optimize your portfolio maybe in some markets, which could give you some pretty descent headroom under the cap? Thanks.

Okay. I want to make sure I have my displacement auto for Q3 and Q4...

And M&A.

...and M&A, okay. So...

There you go.

I think that will handle all the questions for the call.

I should learn to ask them like that, okay.

But, James, I could tell you that our top five billing states were Nevada, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Missouri and Indiana. So, obviously if that's where approximately 50% of the political billing fell, there is displacement in those markets particularly around news and live events whether news or sports programming. For the rest of the company, and in some markets, we had pressures little political, then it's hard to make a companywide displacement thesis because supply and demand varies by market and the amount of political pressure basically will, I think, vary by marketplace. But I think if you're looking for rule of thumb given particularly on PAC and Party unit rates that we get very substantial unit rates there more than our 52 week advertisers pay. For every dollar political that you bring in, you probably displace maybe $0.25 or $0.30 of core advertising because you have a limited amount of inventory, we can't add a fee to the airplane once we take it off. As far as auto goes, fourth quarter at this point looks about like third quarter, where we'll be flat for the category both on Tier 2 and Tier 3 local dealers and as well as dealer association money, that looks to be cumulatively flat, which is about where we ended up in the third quarter, so no real change there. On M&A, we will continue to be opportunistic as we have been for over 20 years. I can't comment on whether or not spectrum may clear markets that would give us capacity under the cap in the spectrum auction that will play out as it plays out, but that is one avenue for potential growth in television. And you're right, there could be the opportunity in markets, where we can own two stations, look to double up or maybe swap with another operator to give both of us that opportunity. And then we'll continue to selectively look to build our digital portfolio, the external digital company or the digital subsidiary will start light with approximately $200 million in revenue and our goal is to double that within five years, and some of that will come through organic growth and some of that will come through acquisitions. But, suffice it to say, with sub 4% leverage now and approximately 4.5% leverage at the end of the year, for the next 18 months or so, we're going to be very focused on delevering the balance sheet and then continuing our dividend program, and if there are no acquisition opportunities, we would return even more capital to shareholders. So I think those are the priorities, and I don't know Tom, if you want to comment anymore on that, but that's what you and I talked about.

No, absolutely. And you should – we told people to expect continuation growth of the dividend, not to similar to the growth that we've seen historically. We do have a existing share repurchase authorization that is unfulfilled at this point. But as Perry mentioned, job one for us is to deleverage, because we think that provides us significant opportunities and flexibility going forward, whether it is M&A or it is further return of capital to shareholders.

Great. That covers it. Thanks very much.

We will take our next question from John Janedis of Jefferies. Please go ahead, sir.

All my questions were answered, no, it's a joke. Can you guys talk a little bit more about your footprint away from political, meaning, it seems like demand has held better than your peers. So do you think your markets have decoupled from the broader industry, and is there evidence that local dollars are shifting to digital, given some of the commentary from, I guess the Internet pure plays around their local ambitions?

I don't think our markets have decoupled. I think that is the – it has been, John, the laser focus of the senior management team and then the management teams in our individual markets to maximize every opportunity whether it'd be political or core. As you know, we announced on every call, the amount of new business we've developed within the quarter new-to-television, our general managers get paid on that, that is a metric by which their bonus is calculated. And so, I think that if anything I would try and call out and separate out the management team of the company, as being able to produce better than peer group results and we take this very seriously. This is the only business we're in and the only thing we do. And so it gets 24x7 attention from everybody, that's around this table both heard from and not heard from, but also the regional managers and our directors of local content development and then the general managers and their teams, they know what the mandate is and we have a call to discuss that on a regular basis to make sure that, everybody is rowing in the same direction. With respect to digital, I think again, our focus is on mining the larger share of wallet locally. I just gave our general managers an exercise on our last monthly call, I said I wanted you to walk into your next sales meeting and ask all of your account executives to keep track of the calls that they make for the next week. And then at the end of the call and in addition, all the other business you do, ask them one question, is that client buying Facebook ads in the local market place, yes or no? And interestingly enough and I think it was eye opening to some of our managers, approximately half of our local clients that we called on that week, are doing business with Facebook. And so, don't think that these national entities are not in the local marketplaces. And our job is to play both offense and defense to be out there with products and services that rival those of the national brands, but supported by the local brand and the local sales force and the local fulfillment where if you have a problem, you can pick up the phone or walk down the street, and talk to somebody and you're not dealing with the call center. So I think you'll see continued double digit growth in our digital portfolio, both the digital subsidiary of which Nexstar Broadcasting will be the largest customer, but also the local site revenue that our television stations use all of their assets to power.

That's helpful, Perry. Maybe, a very quick follow-up or a separate question, I should say. At this point, do you think the auction slips into next year and if so, do you still think you can get the FCC approval this year?

Yes and yes. I think the auction – given the bid ask and where we are, will probably slip into next year, but I also believe that we will be granted our waiver, and our application will be granted that will allow us to close the transaction in Q4?

Okay, great. Thank you.

We will take our next question from Aaron Watts of Deutsche Bank. Please, go ahead.

Hey, guys. Tom, I think I heard you say that core spot overall was down less than 1% on a same-station basis in the third quarter. Curious, what you're seeing anecdotally in the fourth quarter? And we've heard from Gray earlier that they were seeing some hesitation by advertisers in the local market, getting past this election and not wanting to get off the side lines. Curious if you're seeing any of that?

Well, obviously, in the month of October with the – you could do the math on the amount of political that we're going to – we have said we would generate in October in the first eight days of November. There was certainly displacement there and it was much more widespread than the third quarter because the political dollars were spread much more. But our pacing for November and December are much improved over what our October results will be for core. So, thematically, I think we're looking at a slight decline in the quarter, which you would expect with in excess of $50 million of political advertising, but I don't think there is any particular headline there for us at this point.

Okay. So, nothing that stands out versus prior years as you round up an election?

I would say, no.

Okay. And then just my second question again, maybe for Tom. I think you've talked about a pro forma closing of the acquisition leverage of 5.5 times, and I was curious just with some volatility in political spending and the current environment we're in, if that number still holds or if you have any change to that guidance?

Well the only thing I'd point out is, 5.5 times is average 2016, 2017, EBITDA. So, on a trailing 12 months for the way that we calculated, it will actually be less than that. And our free cash flow and the amount of debt required at closing allows us to continue to believe that it will be by the end of the year around 4.5 times, it will be slightly higher than that at closing, off of 930 numbers, but the 930 numbers shouldn't be materially different. And so, I guess on a trailing 12 months basis, we continue to reiterate something in the mid-to-high 4s at closing.

Okay. Thank you.

We will now hear from Dan Kurnos of Benchmark. Please go ahead.

Great. Thanks. Just to touch a little bit on – little bit more on the deal, Perry, high level, I doubt that there has been any change to strategy, but given probably some of the frustration with the FCC's inability to get this deal done just – has it impaired your ability to be more aggressive and investing in your own properties as you wait for the deal. And then you mentioned before in the prior call that you might give a separate update on a synergy guide, but in your prepared remarks, it sounds more like, you might wait until the deal closes, which are the two, do you think is more likely to be. Thanks.

Well, we are full speed ahead on investments in our local products. We've expanded local news in a dozen markets this year. We're building a brand new television station for our employees in Sioux City, because they need that to be able to compete and to work safely. And so we will hit our CapEx guidance for the year in investing, and so with full speed ahead. And our management team has done a remarkable job, I think of managing the company and keeping all of our plates spinning while at the same time leaning into the diligence necessary to know everything that we can or as much as we can about the Media General stations and digital properties prior to close, so that we hit the ground running to the high degree that we are able. So and as far as a synergy target, I think that once the closing is announced, once the FCC has given us a grant, and then we will set a closing date. Sometime in that that time, prior to closing, we will update the synergy guidance for you, but we want to do it only once. And so, we'll do that for you, prior to the closing, but once the closing date has been set and the deal has been approved by the FCC.

Great, thanks. And then just two quick housekeeping questions. Can you just remind us what was – Tom what was your CapEx guide for the year, because I think Q3 came in a little bit higher than expected?

It was $26 million, last quarter we increased it to $30 million.

Yeah.

And that was the Diginet contract that we entered into and some Media General CapEx that were – largely from a systems perspective to go ahead and start to marry the two systems.

Got it. And is that would also cause the upside in digital in the quarter or was there also another acquisition tucked in there that I missed somewhere?

There was no acquisition.

No acquisition. Again, digital on a same station basis or comparable basis was up 20%. I think on a GAAP basis, it was up 42%. So 20% was recovery and a couple of properties, Yashi, in particular that had kind of a – if you remember a programmatic space was difficult this time last year.

It sounds like there's been some headway you made there not that it's moving the needle, but we've seen a lot of improvement in the programmatic space especially from a rate basis, I assume you guys are seeing the benefit of that.

We are, we are.

That's one piece of the story. We have our machine learning company that is primarily in the App World, that is showing substantial growth this year. And our local site revenue in addition to the Tactive services that we sell in our local markets as well as the ad opportunities and again buffeted by Olympic related digital revenue in the third quarter, all contributed to a substantial increase in our local site revenue as well.

All right. Great. Thanks, guys. I appreciate it.

We'll take our next question from Marci Ryvicker of Wells Fargo. Please go ahead.

Thanks. Just want to clarify the expectation for auto to be flat. Is that the same station or is that not same station?

In the fourth quarter?

Yeah.

That would be on a same station basis.

Okay. And then one of the questions that I've been getting is, should Media General's numbers coming below when they report tomorrow morning. How could or would that impact a pro forma numbers that you've already given us for the combined company?

Well, I think if you remember, Marci, when we filed our proxy, our projections for Media General's performance in 2016 was below the numbers that Media General had in their proxy. So I think there is to a degree, some buffer built in there. Obviously, at closing, we'll calibrate everything. We can control our performance, we can control the synergies, we can't get control their performance. So we'll add that all up and that's what I was saying at the time of closing, we will reiterate our synergy number which will then give you the free cash flow forecast based on all of – lumping all of those factors together. But I do – we do have headroom in our first nine months number versus whatever their first nine months reported number will be and there is additional headroom in the fourth quarter, because I think that's probably where we were at variance on our perspectives, probably to the highest degree. So their headroom in our numbers versus theirs and obviously, we'll wait and see what the numbers actually are.

Got it. Thank you.

Our next question comes from Jim Goss of Barrington Research. Please go ahead.

Thank you. I was wondering, as you look at swap possibilities or things of that nature, are there advantages you find from geographic clustering or do the markets have to be really adjacent for that to matter in terms of operating benefits?

No, Jim, there is obviously advantages to geographic clustering. We operate in every market or will when the transaction closes in the state of New York with the exception of New York City. We're in every market in Pennsylvania with the exception of Philadelphia and Pittsburg. Texas, we have a substantial presence, Louisiana and on and on. And so, those are the markets. Alabama is another one, and that where we can then use those assets basically to launch state capital news bureaus, and things of that to give us. Again, the focus on giving us local content that our competitors in a given market don't have the ability to access, because they don't have the size and the scale. So they don't have to be adjacent markets, but I do think geographic clusters particularly within state boundaries make a lot of sense.

Okay. And in terms of the visits to the Media General properties, I'm wondering, if the visits upgrades come or at least – and enable some better focusing on operations and take away some of the uncertainties? And what is your normal visiting cycle from the top beyond regional management?

Sure. I would like to think that our visiting to stations because in addition to the meetings that we had with station management, which lasted anywhere from three hours to nine hours depending on the market and the level of complexity. The last thing that Tim Busch and I did before we left the building was the walk around the building and introduce ourselves, and say hello to anybody that was present and shake their hand. And so I would like to think that puts a name with the face and maybe, takes down the fear of the unknown. We have deployed our benefit program and our benefit teams and the Media General employees are in the process of signing up for benefits and with Nexstar, that would be effective as of January the 1, so that's an unknown, that's become known. And I do think that when we had very favorable feedback to thanks for taking the time to come, visit us. And so I would like to believe it had the intended effect, plus it gave us the opportunity to know as much as we can on the way in the door, but we're not trying to put this together post-closing. And I think it also gave senior management of each of those facilities a view into, by our questioning and by our prioritization, what's important in the Nexstar way, and I think it gives them a change to calibrate to that as well. I would tell you that our – we have regional Vice Presidents that have geographic responsibility across the company. Right now, we have three in addition to our two co-COOs, we will be adding another three, so that they all be able to manage stations that literally within driving or short flying distances of the markets. We will be adding an additional Director of Content Development, which will help to mine those synergies that we talked about, all of the news producing facilities within a particular state or geographic area. We're adding to IT, the finance accounting, and along the way. But the folks that typically visit our regional Vice Presidents, our Directors of local Content Development, IT, HR, and engineering depending on needs. And so, I would say each station does give a lot of touches over the course of a quarter, and obviously I'll continue to try and visit as many as I can.

All right. Thanks very much. I appreciate it.

We will now hear from Kyle Evans of Stephens, Inc. Please go ahead.

Hi, thanks. Could you dive down into the 20% same station digital growth you saw in the quarter, and maybe talk about how you look at that going forward? And then I've got two follow-ups.

Dive down in what way?

I want to understand the working parts of that 20% same station digital, what drove that growth?

Well, I would say that in our NBC markets, Olympics were a factor. We have 21 NBC markets, about a third of our station portfolio was made up of NBC station, so that helped. I think that we reorganized in our markets or organized in our markets over the last year-and-a-half to put a what we call Tactive seller into each one of our markets in addition to a digital sales manager. And what Tactive is for us is all of our gross margin products that our reseller are retargeting and SEO, SEM and all those kinds of things, we can't commission those the same way because of the gross margin nature. So we have a seller that is expert in how to sell those in the local marketplaces and we've already made our Tactive internal budget for the year as of our management call yesterday. So I would say, that is a big factor. And just typically our ad revenue growth has been running about 15%. So that – all of those taken together I think, are factors for our continued growth.

Thanks. And you guys will get sick of me asking, but could I get a retrans sub-count update? And then finally, Tom, you've talked about double digit net retrans growth kind of looking out into the future, any change to that long-term view? Thank you.

No, change to either number.

Great. Thank you.

We will now hear from Barry Lucas of Gabelli & Company. Please go ahead. Barry L. Lucas - Gabelli & Co.: Thanks very much. Could you just give us a pro forma 2012 political number if you have that sort of get a decent benchmark?

I don't know that I have a perfect pro forma number because of the way some of our acquired companies kept for (53:09) but maybe I can answer it this way, if I look at our political billing in 2016 versus 2012, presidential revenue was down 40% over what Obama and Romney spent in 2012 versus 2016. However, our Senate spending was up over 70% 2016 versus 2012, and spending on Governors' races was up over 30% 2016 versus 2012. So that may not give you the absolute number, but it can give you some directionality into our spending. I think a real rough number would be approximately 25% plus increase over 2012 spending, but that's just a rough estimate. Barry L. Lucas - Gabelli & Co.: Thanks for that, Perry. If you look at the fairly numerous markets you have in the oil patch in Texas and Louisiana. A, what are you seeing and then B, some of the service companies are starting to, I think, see some sort of bottoming maybe with a pickup in land drilling initially, so any color on those markets would be helpful?

Sure, I would say for our West Texas markets that – you're exactly right, people have determined that the Permian crude is probably the most desirous area for operations right now, so in the Midland's and the Abilene's and the Lubbock's of the world, things are going just fine. We do have one market in North Dakota that is very tight to the shale gas and shale oil and things have yet to pick back up there, literally the condo (55:01) of Williston and Bismarck and towns of North Dakota that we operate in, are actually looking at this is a blessing because it's given them a chance for the infrastructure to catch up with what's already there in terms of schools and roads and public services and things like that. But I would say that the North Dakota oil industry has challenged us a little bit. But as oil approaches and hangs in around $50 a barrel, a lot of wells that were drilled that are not producing, they'll turn back on and the oilfield services obviously will need to be there to service those working rigs once they are producing. So I hope that answers your question. The Marcellus Shale in Pennsylvania and New York, you can't get a hotel room in Elmira, New York because they're all driving across the border to Pennsylvania, the work we – the shale of North East Pennsylvania and North Central Pennsylvania. So I would say all in all, it is with the exception of North Dakota, it's fairly healthy and as far as Louisiana goes, we have some special situations there obviously the floods of Baton Rouge that were a negative in Baton Rouge and Lafayette in the third quarter. Now the insurance companies and contractors have all started to move in and actually they will be a typically positive in the fourth quarter, but not for the reasons that you (56:27) mostly repair and insurance and those kinds of things that usually always trail two months or three months after a disaster. Barry L. Lucas - Gabelli & Co.: Thanks. Last area, Perry, would be the spectrum auction and do you think that the commission needs that hiatus between what would I guess is stage 3 and stage 4 to approve the waiver or how would you game that?

What I hear from the FCC is that they are working hard on processing our waiver and processing our application and that's I believe that they are working hard on that. I don't think that they will need to wait for a pause in the action to grant our application, by given the fact that the CVR is in place. And both Nexstar and Media General, put on a list the number of stations they will consider participating in the auction, and set a reserve price for each one, and it's really binary, Barry, above that price you must sell, below that price you can't sell. So whether it's one company making that decision or two boardrooms making that decision, you're going to end up at the same outcome. And so there is no reason to pause the auction or wait for pause in the auction to grant the application. I believe that point has carried the day because the FCC has told our representatives that they're continuing to process the application. So we're very optimistic that they're working hard on it and hat we hope to have a grant that will allow us to close in the fourth quarter, and we still believe that that will be the case. Barry L. Lucas - Gabelli & Co.: Thanks for that, Perry, I appreciate it.

You bet.

Our next question comes from Davis Hebert of Wells Fargo Securities. Please, go ahead.

Hey, guys. Thanks for sneaking me in here. Tom, one of the benefits of your new capital structure is the amount of pre-payable debt you have and just kind of that – as we look at our model and the amount of free cash flow you generate. I mean, should we just assume that a lot of that get swept into the term loan going forward?

Well, I would say, that's probably, the most conservative assumption in terms of reducing outstanding debt, we don't have to ask permission, we don't have to pay additional fees, et cetera. So while that's not the only one, that's probably the most likely one.

Okay. That's fair. And thinking about the 6.875% which are currently callable. How should we think about that bond going forward as part of your capital structure?

Well, I think we've got some – a lot of wood to chop between here and there. There is an opportunity here depending on what happens with some of the existing Media General notes. We may, in fact, be overfunded from a cash perspective, but I think that's something that we'll address once the dust settles a little bit on the acquisition. That you probably heard and read a little bit about we've got, something immediately in front of us that we've got to getting the – we've got them aligned, we've got to get it on the boat, and skin it and clay it and then we can move on to the next tab, which includes the 6x and 7x.

Okay. That's great. And then last question. I think historically, you've said, we should anticipate dividend increases, up similar cadence in past years. Just curious of that is – that still remains the same?

I think I've said that earlier in the call. Yes, I would anticipate that.

Okay. Sorry. I missed that. Thank you.

There are no further questions at this time.

Well, I'd like to thank you once again for joining us today. Thank you for your continued interest and support in the company. This is likely the last earnings call of Nexstar Broadcasting Group because the next time we greet you it'll be as the new Nexstar Media Group and we're tremendously excited about that event, and also hosting that call and outlaying our plans for the combined company on a going forward basis. So we will look forward to that, and look forward to talking to you again soon. Thank you very much.

That concludes today's conference. Thank you for your participation. You may now disconnect.
