Following shareholder approval, closing is expected in the first quarter of 2026, subject to customary regulatory approvals.

CommScope Holding Company declared a dividend in kind on its Series A Preferred Stock consisting of a distribution of 17,343 shares in the aggregate plus $12.50 in cash in the aggregate to cover fractional shares. The company expects to pay the dividend on September 30, 2025. Separately, CommScope and Amphenol have entered into a purchase agreement under which Amphenol has agreed to acquire CommScope's Connectivity and Cable Solutions reporting segment (CCS) (the "Transaction").
CommScope is asking stockholders to approve a purchase agreement to sell its Connectivity and Cable Solutions (CCS) reporting segment to Amphenol for a $10.5 billion cash base purchase price, subject to adjustments. The Board unanimously recommends approval and retained Evercore, which delivered a fairness opinion on the base purchase price. The transaction may be considered a sale of substantially all assets under Delaware law and requires a stockholder vote by holders of a majority of outstanding shares (common stock plus Series A preferred on an as-converted basis). Closing is expected in the first half of 2026 if required approvals and customary closing conditions, including antitrust and HSR clearance, are met. CommScope expects approximately $10 billion net proceeds after taxes and transaction expenses, intends to repay debt, redeem Series A preferred stock and contemplates a special cash dividend (illustratively no less than $10 per share based on current estimates). The Special Meeting is virtual on October 16, 2025; record date is September 8, 2025.

CommScope Holding Company, Inc. (COMM) filed a Form 144 indicating a proposed sale of 334,515 common shares through Fidelity Brokerage Services on or after 08/04/2025. The shares have an aggregate market value of $5.55 million, based on recent pricing, and represent roughly 0.15% of the company’s 221.5 million shares outstanding. The seller—name not disclosed—acquired the stock via a mix of open-market purchases and stock awards between 2021-2025. No sales were reported in the past three months. Form 144 does not obligate the sale, but it signals the holder’s intent and may introduce modest selling pressure.
Q2-25 results: Net sales climbed 32% YoY to $1.39 bn, supported by CCS and Ruckus demand. Gross margin widened to 42.6%, pushing operating income up 158% to $236 m. After $156 m interest expense and a 58% tax rate, continuing ops earned $29 m (vs. $56 m loss), equal to $0.05 diluted EPS; total diluted EPS was $0.06.
1H-25: Revenue rose 28% to $2.50 bn and operating income reached $370 m (prior-year $37 m). A $361 m tax benefit plus the $491 m gain from the $2.0 bn sale of the Outdoor Wireless Networks (OWN) segment and DAS unit drove net income to $816 m, or $3.00 diluted EPS.
Balance sheet: Divestiture proceeds funded $2.05 bn of debt repayments, lowering long-term debt to $7.25 bn and shrinking the stockholders’ deficit to $(2.44) bn. Cash closed at $571 m. Leverage improves but equity remains negative.
Cash flow: Operating cash outflow was $110 m; investing inflow of $2.02 bn reflects OWN/DAS sale; financing outflow $2.02 bn for debt service.
Strategic moves: OWN/DAS divestiture completed; NICS segment rebranded Ruckus; OneCell business sold May-25 (small $4.9 m loss). Management notes ANS goodwill has just 8% headroom, highlighting impairment risk.
Watch-list: high interest expense, negative equity, customer concentration (Comcast 14% of sales) and ongoing CommScope NEXT restructuring.
