"The performance of Fairfax Radio was undermined by a disruptive sale process and management changes. Regional Radio was divested in October 2011. Adam Lang was appointed the CEO and is leading the turnaround of the business. The performance of all stations is now recovering and we anticipate a much improved performance in the 2013 financial year."

Revenue for Fairfax Radio dropped by 13% to $97 million, underperforming a flat metropolitan radio advertising market.
