Business Wire
Liberty Broadband Corporation (“Liberty Broadband”) (Nasdaq:
LBRDA, LBRDK, LBRDP) today announced an update to the expected
timing of its pending acquisition by Charter Communications, Inc.
(NASDAQ: CHTR) (along with its subsidiaries, "Charter").
On May 16, 2025, Charter and Cox Communications (“Cox”)
announced that they entered into a definitive agreement to combine
their businesses. In connection with this transaction, Liberty
Broadband has agreed to accelerate the closing of its previously
announced acquisition by Charter to occur contemporaneously with
Charter’s combination with Cox. There are no changes to any other
transaction terms of the pending Liberty Broadband and Charter
transaction.
If Charter and Cox do not complete their transaction, Liberty
Broadband may elect to accelerate the close of its transaction with
Charter to occur on the later of (i) the tenth business day after
the termination of the Charter and Cox transaction and (ii) the
third business day after the satisfaction of the applicable closing
conditions to the Liberty Broadband and Charter transaction.
Liberty Broadband has also agreed to provide its voting support
for the Charter and Cox combination. The three Liberty Broadband
nominees on Charter’s board will resign at the closing of Charter’s
acquisition of Liberty Broadband.
The acquisition of Liberty Broadband by Charter is subject to
the completion of the spin-off of Liberty Broadband's GCI business
by way of a distribution to its common stockholders, which is
expected to occur in summer 2025, and other customary closing
conditions.
