[SCHEDULE 13D/A] AMC Networks Inc. SEC Filing
Amendment No. 16 to a Schedule 13D for AMC Networks Inc. (AMCX) reports intra-family transfers of Class B shares and updates group ownership figures. On September 8, 2025 the Charles F. Dolan 2009 Revocable Trust transferred all 873,129 shares of its Class B Common Stock to several Group Members in partial repayment of promissory notes at a valuation of $7.72 per share (the mean of the high and low trading price for Class A on that date). As amended, the Group Members collectively beneficially own 842,186 shares of Class A Common Stock plus 11,484,408 Class A shares issuable upon conversion of all outstanding Class B stock, for an aggregate of 12,326,594 shares, representing approximately 28.4% of the Issuer's common stock outstanding (based on 31,899,405 Class A shares outstanding as of August 1, 2025). The CFD 2009 Trust ceased to be a Group Member and a party to the Class B Stockholders' Agreement. The filing replaces and updates Exhibits A and B and adds a Joint Filing Agreement as Exhibit D.
- None.
- None.
Insights
TL;DR: Intra-family transfers repaid debt and reshuffled Class B holdings; group control remains concentrated at 28.4%.
The amendment discloses that the CFD 2009 Trust transferred all of its 873,129 Class B shares to multiple Family trusts and individuals to repay promissory notes, valued at $7.72 per share for the transaction. This results in the CFD 2009 Trust ceasing to be a party to the Class B Stockholders' Agreement and no longer a Group Member. The Group still retains shared voting and dispositive power over all outstanding Class B shares that convert into Class A, supporting continued concentrated influence over corporate governance. Replacement of Exhibits A and B and addition of a Joint Filing Agreement formalize the updated ownership and trustee lists.
TL;DR: Transfer consolidated family economic interests and documented repayment mechanics; ownership percentages and voting power were updated.
The filing provides specific transaction mechanics: transferred shares were applied to promissory note repayment and priced at the mid-market price on the transaction date. The Group's aggregate beneficial ownership calculation is explicit: 842,186 Class A shares plus 11,484,408 Class A shares issuable on conversion of Class B for a total of 12,326,594 shares, ~28.4% of common stock outstanding (using company-reported 31,899,405 Class A shares as of August 1, 2025). The disclosure clarifies disclaimers of beneficial ownership among Reporting Persons and updates trust/trustee relationships through amended exhibits.

| (a) | The disclosure in Item 5(a) and (b) is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:
(a) and (b) As of September 8, 2025, the Group Members may be deemed to beneficially own an aggregate of 12,326,594 shares of Class A Common Stock as a result of their beneficial ownership of (i) 842,186 shares of Class A Common Stock (inclusive of shares held by the Dolan Family Foundation, for which certain Group Members serve as director) and (ii) 11,484,408 shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon conversion of an equal number of shares of Class B Common Stock. This aggregate amount represents approximately 28.4% of the total shares of the Issuer's common stock deemed to be currently outstanding. Group Members in the aggregate may be deemed to have the current shared power to vote or direct the vote of and to dispose of or direct the disposition of 11,484,408 shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon conversion of an equal number of shares of Class B Common Stock (representing all outstanding Class B Common Stock) because of the terms of the Class B Stockholders' Agreement (as previously defined in the Schedule 13D). Reporting Persons and individuals who are not Group Members but are trustees of trusts that are Group Members may be deemed to beneficially own an additional 117,577 shares of Class A Common Stock. Each of the Reporting Persons disclaims beneficial ownership of the securities held by the other Reporting Persons, and this report shall not be deemed to be an admission that such person is the beneficial owner of such securities.
The percentages used herein with respect to the ownership of Class A Common Stock are calculated based on 31,899,405 outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock as of August 1, 2025, as reported by the Issuer In its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that was filed with the SEC on August 8, 2025.
See the responses to Items 7 through 13 of each cover page to this Amendment No. 16, which are incorporated by reference. See Exhibit A for supplemental information regarding beneficial ownership of Class A Common Stock by the Group Members and other individuals who are not Group Members but are trustees of trusts that are Group Members. See Exhibit B for additional information regarding the Reporting Persons that are trusts. | |
| (b) | See Item 5(a) above, Exhibit A and Exhibit B | |
| (c) | Other than as disclosed herein, there were no transactions in the Class A Common Stock effected during the past sixty days by the persons named in response to Item 5(a). | |
