Rick, what’s new over the past year?

We installed 3 new digitals last year and continue to look at potential static conversions to digital. We had a couple tuck in purchases with small groups of structures in Indiana and Kentucky. We are constantly looking for new locations throughout Indiana and Kentucky.

Whose digitals do you use and what have you learned?

We have used only WatchFire digitals for the past 12 years. They have been great to work with and maintenance issues have been very acceptable. One things I have learned about digitals is the tighter / lower pixel the better image the easier they are to rent. I have never regretted spending money for a better picture.

What are some of your objectives for the next year?

We hope to make a couple of acquisitions, build a few new structures and convert more statics to digital.
