Overview

Mission

Pike TV is a local government broadcasting organization jointly created by the City of Pikeville and the Pike County Fiscal Court for the purpose of increasing citizen access to local government, to provide informative programs of interest and value to residents which are not otherwise available, to provide programming through which the quality of community life may be improved, to inform and entertain, and to distribute funds in connection with any of these activities.Broadcasting on Channel 99 local cable television systems.

Operating model

Revenue model
Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent revenue detail to tell how this nonprofit funds its work.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and program spending has declined or grown slowly.
