The company's board of directors issued the following statement: "We are profoundly saddened by the sudden passing of Walter Ulloa and extend our heartfelt condolences to Walter's wife, son and entire family.

"Since founding Entravision more than 25 years ago, Walter has been an exceptional leader who transformed the company from a traditional multi-linear Spanish-language company that currently owns and operates approximately 100 domestic television and radio stations, to a global digital media powerhouse with a footprint that today reaches across more than 40 countries. Well-known and respected throughout the media industry, Walter's passion, energy, and devotion to our company will be greatly missed. We have lost a leader and a friend.

Thanks to Walter's dynamic leadership, Entravision has assembled an experienced management team that will continue to drive the company's long-term growth strategy as we serve our customers, our partners, and our shareholders."

NAB President and CEO Curtis LeGeyt said, "Walter Ulloa was an outstanding ambassador for Spanish-language television and radio through his decades of leadership at Entravision. He gave back to his community through service on multiple boards and organizations, including the NAB Leadership Foundation Board of Directors. Our hearts are with Walter's family and our friends at Entravision during this difficult time."
