Frontier’s merger with Verizon cashes out director’s stock and RSUs at $38.50 per share.

This filing shows how equity for a Frontier Communications Parent director was treated when Verizon Communications completed its acquisition. A Verizon subsidiary merged into Frontier on January 20, 2026, leaving Frontier as a wholly owned Verizon subsidiary. In that process, the director’s common shares were reported as disposed of, with no shares remaining owned after the deal.

Each Frontier common share was automatically converted into a cash right of $38.50 per share at the effective time. Outstanding restricted stock units vested and were canceled, paying holders cash equal to the number of underlying shares multiplied by $38.50. The impact for shareholders and award holders is a full cash exit from their Frontier equity at the specified per-share price.
