Capital structures around these assets have been reshaped: Wyre has drawn €2.71 billion from a €4.35 billion bank facility, funding a €398 million dividend and repayment of a €1.98 billion intercompany loan to Telenet, which then repaid €2.12 billion of its own debt. Further €1.2–1.4 billion of planned asset disposals across Ziggo Group are earmarked for additional debt retirement.

The company states it does not anticipate making more than $200 million in selective repurchases over any twelve-month period under this authorization, and the board may separately authorize additional repurchase programs. Repurchases may occur via open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, block trades or other methods, including transactions under Rule 10b5-1 trading plans and in accordance with Rule 10b-18 under the Exchange Act.
