Charter Communications, Inc. ("Charter") has filed a Preliminary Proxy Statement (Schedule 14A) dated June 18, 2025 seeking shareholder approval for a multi-step transaction with Cox Enterprises, Inc. ("Cox") and related governance changes.
Transaction structure – cash, equity & debt:
- Cox will sell to Charter 100% of subsidiaries that run Cox Communications’ commercial fiber and managed IT & cloud services businesses for $3.5 billion cash.
- Cox will contribute the remainder of Cox Communications’ residential cable assets to Charter Communications Holdings, LLC ("Charter Holdings") for $500 million cash, $6.0 billion aggregate-liquidation-preference 6.875% convertible preferred units, and ~33.6 million Charter Holdings common units valued at the $353.64 reference price.
- Cox will pay Charter $1.00 and receive one share of a newly created Class C common stock carrying voting power equivalent to its as-converted/exchanged holdings.
- The combined entity will assume $12.6 billion of Cox Communications net debt.
The preferred units are initially convertible at $477.41 (a 35% premium to the reference price) into Charter Holdings common units, which themselves are exchangeable 1-for-1 into Charter Class A common stock (subject to adjustments).
Post-closing ownership: Based on Charter’s March 31, 2025 share count and assuming the contemporaneous Liberty Broadband merger, Cox is expected to hold roughly 23% of the combined company’s diluted shares outstanding on an as-exchanged, as-converted basis.
Governance & voting support: Liberty Broadband (≈28% voting power) and Advance/Newhouse Partnership (≈12%) each entered separate voting agreements obligating them to vote in favor of (i) the share issuance, (ii) the Second Amended & Restated Certificate of Incorporation (which creates Class C shares and prescribes board-composition requirements), and (iii) any adjournment proposal, subject to limited carve-outs.
Shareholder meeting & proposals: At a special meeting (date and location TBD) Charter shareholders will be asked to approve: (1) the share issuance, (2) the certificate amendment creating Class C common stock, and (3) a non-binding advisory vote on the board-composition feature.
Economic implications highlighted in the filing:
- Total cash outlay to Cox: $4.0 billion.
- Securities issued: $6.0 billion preferred units with 6.875% dividend plus 33.6 million common units (potential dilution).
- Additional leverage: assumption of $12.6 billion net debt.
The Preliminary Proxy Statement is subject to completion and may be amended. No earnings data or quantified synergies are provided in this filing.
