Verizon buyout: Frontier (FYBR) director reports full share disposal

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Frontier Communications Parent, Inc. has been acquired by Verizon Communications Inc., with the merger becoming effective on January 20, 2026. At the effective time, each outstanding share of Frontier common stock was automatically converted into the right to receive $38.50 in cash per share, without interest.

Insights

M&A and equity compensation analyst

Frontier is taken private in a Verizon cash deal at $38.50 per share.

Frontier Communications becomes a wholly owned subsidiary of Verizon Communications Inc. following a merger effective on January 20, 2026. Each Frontier common share was automatically converted into the right to receive $38.50 in cash, and outstanding restricted stock units vested and were canceled for a cash payment based on the same per-share amount.

Director Maryann Turcke reported dispositions of 19,880 and 21,199 Frontier common shares, ending with no shares reported as beneficially owned. These are mechanical conversions driven by the merger terms rather than open-market sales. For former Frontier shareholders, the transaction effectively closes out their equity position in exchange for cash, and future value exposure, if any, shifts to Verizon rather than Frontier.
