Item 8.01. Other Events.

 

On January 5, 2026, Comcast Corporation (“Comcast”) issued a press release announcing the completion of the previously-announced separation of Versant Media Group, Inc. (“Versant”) from Comcast, effective as of 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on January 2, 2026. The separation of Versant, which comprises a strong portfolio of cable television networks and complementary digital platforms, was achieved through Comcast’s distribution (the “Distribution”) of 100% of the shares of Versant Class A common stock and Versant Class B common stock to holders of Comcast Class A common stock and Comcast Class B common stock as of the close of business on the record date of December 16, 2025. Comcast stockholders of record received one share of Versant Class A common stock or Versant Class B common stock for every 25 shares of Comcast Class A common stock or Comcast Class B common stock, respectively. Fractional shares of Versant Class A common stock were not delivered in the Distribution. Any fractional share of Versant Class A common stock otherwise issuable to a holder of Comcast Class A common stock will be aggregated into whole shares and sold in the open market on such stockholder’s behalf, and such stockholder will receive a cash payment for the fractional share based on the stockholder’s pro rata share of the aggregate net cash proceeds of the sales.

 

Following the Distribution, Versant became an independent, publicly-traded company, and Comcast retained no ownership interest in Versant. Versant Class A common stock will commence regular way trading under the symbol “VSNT” on the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC.

 

A copy of the press release is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference in this Item 8.01.
