This Hunt Valley, MD-based Media - Radio/TV firm has traded in a wider than usual intra-day range in recent sessions, a sign of uncertainty after spiking to new 52-week highs with 3 consecutive volume-driven gains.

Prior mid-day reports noted - "Reported strong increases in sales revenues and earnings well above the +25% minimum earnings guideline (C criteria) in past 4 quarters through Dec '12."

Rallying today with above average volume, perched at its 52-week high. Reported earnings +24% on +7% sales revenues for the quarter ended December 31, 2012, just below the +25% minimum earnings guideline (C criteria). Noted in prior mid-day reports with caution - "Earnings increases were above the +25% minimum guideline in the 3 last quarterly comparisons through Sep '12, but its decelerating sales revenues growth rate (+15%, +9%, and +5% in the Mar, Jun, Sep quarters, respectively) is a concern. Annual earnings (A criteria) increases have not been strong and steady enough to meet the guidelines."
