Lorenzo joins from Liberty Latin America, where she led Cable & Wireless Panama to double-digit customer growth; Porter remains an advisor through year-end and Chairman of Wyre.

VodafoneZiggo Receives EU Commission Clearance For Tower Sale
Liberty Global received EU Commission clearance for the sale of VodafoneZiggo's passive tower assets to DigitalBridge, TD Greystone Infrastructure and L&G, with closing anticipated by year-end for EUR669m in total consideration.
The tower sale proceeds will support de-leveraging at VodafoneZiggo and count toward the targeted €1.2-1.4bn of non-core disposals ahead of the planned spin-off and mid-2027 Amsterdam listing of Ziggo Group.
Management also highlighted record Q3 2026 commercial momentum at VodafoneZiggo, the best broadband net adds since 2019, and this week's launch of up-to-8Gbps speeds following a record 18-month DOCSIS 4 upgrade.

LBTYA: 8-K/A · acquisition merger
Liberty Global filed this 8-K/A to supply the audited VodafoneZiggo financial statements and Liberty Global pro forma financials required after its July 31, 2026 completion of the VodafoneZiggo acquisition, in which it bought Vodafone's 50% stake to reach 100% ownership. Vodafone received €977.5 million in cash plus a 10% equity interest in Ziggo Group, which also holds Liberty Global's Telenet interests in Belgium and Luxembourg.
The filed financials show VodafoneZiggo revenue of €3,999.0 million in 2025 (down from €4,113.8 million) with a €296.5 million net loss, and H1 2026 revenue of €1,955.9 million with a €120.7 million loss. VodafoneZiggo carries roughly €12.4 billion of total debt and cash fell to €39.2 million by mid-2026.
Notable subsequent events include a €669 million mobile tower sale to a DigitalBridge-led consortium expected to close in Q4 2026 with proceeds earmarked for debt reduction, and extended UEFA broadcasting rights through the 2030/31 season. Goodwill headroom of €1.1 billion is sensitive to discount rate and growth assumptions amid competitive pressure in the Dutch market.

Additionally, the company entered into an agreement to acquire Vodafone's 50% interest in the VodafoneZiggo joint venture for $1.1 billion in cash, with the transaction expected to close by July 31, 2026.
