LIBERTY BROADBAND CORPORATION

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(unaudited)

(1) Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Liberty Broadband Corporation (“Liberty Broadband,” the “Company,” “us,” “we,” or “our” unless the context otherwise requires). Liberty Broadband is primarily comprised of an equity method investment in Charter Communications, Inc. (“Charter”).

Liberty Broadband and its subsidiaries completed an internal reorganization preceding the GCI Divestiture (as defined below) to transfer the GCI Business (as defined below) to GCI Liberty, Inc. (“GCI Liberty”). Following the internal reorganization, GCI Liberty owns, directly or indirectly, GCI, LLC and the operations comprising, and the entities that conduct, the GCI Business (collectively, “GCI”). GCI Liberty was a wholly owned subsidiary of Liberty Broadband until the GCI Divestiture, which was completed on July 14, 2025. GCI Liberty is presented as a discontinued operation in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. See note 2 for details of the GCI Divestiture.

On December 18, 2020, the original GCI Liberty, Inc. (“prior GCI Liberty”), the previous parent company of GCI, was acquired by Liberty Broadband.

The accompanying (a) condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2024, which has been derived from audited financial statements, and (b) interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X as promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results for such periods have been included. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. Additionally, certain prior period amounts have been reclassified for comparability with current period presentation. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in Liberty Broadband's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the condensed consolidated financial statements.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company considers (i) the application of the equity method of accounting for its affiliate, (ii) non-recurring fair value measurements of non-financial instruments and (iii) accounting for income taxes to be its most significant estimates.

Through a number of prior years’ transactions, Liberty Broadband has acquired an interest in Charter. The investment in Charter is accounted for using the equity method. Liberty Broadband does not control the decision making process or business management practices of this affiliate. Accordingly, Liberty Broadband relies on the management of this affiliate to provide it with accurate financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP that the Company uses in the application of the equity method. In addition, Liberty Broadband relies on audit reports that are provided by the affiliate's independent auditor on the financial statements of such affiliate. The Company is not aware, however, of any errors in or possible misstatements of the financial information provided by its equity affiliate that would have a material effect on Liberty Broadband's condensed consolidated financial statements.

Recent Events

On November 12, 2024, the Company entered into a definitive agreement (the “Merger Agreement”) under which Charter has agreed to acquire Liberty Broadband (the “Combination”, together with the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the “Transactions”). At the special meeting held on February 26, 2025, the requisite holders of Liberty Broadband’s Series A common stock (“LBRDA”), Series B common stock (“LBRDB”) and Series A cumulative redeemable

I-9

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(unaudited)

preferred stock (“Liberty Broadband preferred stock”) approved the adoption of the Merger Agreement, pursuant to which, among other things, Liberty Broadband will combine with Charter and divest the business of GCI (the “GCI Business”).

As discussed above, as a condition to closing the Combination, Liberty Broadband agreed to divest the GCI Business by way of a distribution to the holders of Liberty Broadband common stock (the “GCI Divestiture”), which was completed on July 14, 2025. The GCI Divestiture was taxable to Liberty Broadband and its stockholders, with Charter bearing the corporate level tax liability upon completion of the Combination. If such corporate level tax liability exceeded $420 million, Liberty Broadband (and Charter upon completion of the Combination) would be entitled under a tax receivables agreement to the portion of the tax benefits realized by GCI Liberty corresponding to such excess; however, the corporate level tax liability from the GCI Divestiture is estimated to be significantly less than $420 million.

In addition, in connection with the entry into the Merger Agreement, Charter, Liberty Broadband and Advance/Newhouse Partnership (“A/N”) entered into an amendment (the “Stockholders and Letter Agreement Amendment”) to (i) that certain Second Amended and Restated Stockholders Agreement, dated as of May 23, 2015 (as amended, the “Stockholders Agreement”), by and among Charter, Liberty Broadband, and A/N, and (ii) that certain Letter Agreement, dated as of February 23, 2021 (the “Letter Agreement”), by and between Charter and Liberty Broadband. Details of this agreement are further described in note 5.

On May 16, 2025, Charter and Cox Communications (“Cox”) announced that they entered into a definitive agreement to combine their businesses. In connection with this transaction, Liberty Broadband has agreed to accelerate the closing of its acquisition by Charter to occur contemporaneously with Charter’s combination with Cox. There are no changes to any other transaction terms of the pending Liberty Broadband and Charter transaction.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we did not repurchase any shares of Liberty Broadband common stock, which is currently restricted by the Merger Agreement. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we repurchased 1.1 million shares of Liberty Broadband Series C common stock (“LBRDK”) for a total purchase price of $89 million. As of September 30, 2025, the amount remaining under the authorized repurchase program is approximately $1,685 million, which is currently restricted by the Merger Agreement.

In connection with the GCI Divestiture, Martin E. Patterson was appointed to the role of President and Chief Executive Officer of Liberty Broadband, effective July 14, 2025. Upon effectiveness of Mr. Patterson’s appointment, John C. Malone resigned as President and Chief Executive Officer but remains Chairman of the Board.

Exchange Agreement with Chairman

On June 13, 2022, Liberty Broadband entered into an Exchange Agreement with its Chairman of the board of directors, John C. Malone, and a revocable trust of which Mr. Malone is the sole trustee and beneficiary (the “JM Trust”) (the “Exchange Agreement”). Under the Exchange Agreement and the Malone exchange side letter (described below), the JM Trust has exchanged 2,098,189 total shares of LBRDB for the same number of LBRDK as of September 30, 2025.

On November 12, 2024, in connection with the entry into the Merger Agreement, Liberty Broadband entered into the Malone exchange side letter with Mr. Malone and certain trusts related to Mr. Malone (collectively, the “Malone Exchange Holders”), whereby, among other things, the Malone Exchange Holders agreed to an arrangement under which Liberty Broadband had the right, in connection with the GCI Divestiture, to exchange certain shares of LBRDB held by such Malone Exchange Holders for shares of LBRDK on a one-for-one basis (the “Malone exchange”) to avoid the application of certain related party rules that otherwise could limit the availability of certain tax benefits to the divested GCI entity following the GCI Divestiture. If the Merger Agreement is terminated without the completion of the Combination having occurred but following the consummation of the Malone exchange (the “Malone exchange closing”), and unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the Malone Exchange Holders and Liberty Broadband, the Malone exchange will be automatically rescinded and treated as if neither the Malone exchange nor the Malone exchange closing had ever occurred.

(unaudited)

Further, pursuant to the terms of the Malone exchange side letter, the parties thereto amended certain provisions of the Exchange Agreement to provide that (i) solely in connection with the GCI Divestiture, Malone Series C Exchangeable Shares (as defined in the Exchange Agreement) would not be exchanged for shares of LBRDB and the holders of such Malone Series C Exchangeable Shares would receive the same per share consideration received by holders of shares of LBRDK, (ii) Liberty Broadband waived its right to obligate the Malone Exchange Holders to enter into an exchange agreement with the divested GCI entity in connection with the GCI Divestiture, (iii) the Exchange Agreement would not be terminated as a result of the Malone Exchange Holders falling below 20% voting power in connection with the GCI Divestiture, and (iv) following the Malone exchange and prior to any termination of the Merger Agreement, none of the Malone Series C Exchangeable Shares would be exchanged for shares of LBRDB.

In accordance with the Malone exchange side letter and concurrent with the GCI Divestiture, the Malone Exchange Holders exchanged 1,617,040 shares of LBRDB for 1,617,040 shares of LBRDK on July 14, 2025.

Historical Spin-Off Arrangements

During May 2014, the board of directors of Liberty Media Corporation and its subsidiaries (“Liberty”) authorized management to pursue a plan to spin-off to its stockholders common stock of a wholly owned subsidiary, Liberty Broadband, and to distribute subscription rights to acquire shares of Liberty Broadband’s common stock (the “Broadband Spin-Off”). In connection with the Broadband Spin-Off, Liberty and Liberty Broadband entered into certain agreements in order to govern certain of the ongoing relationships between the two companies and to provide for an orderly transition, including a tax sharing agreement, services agreement and a facilities sharing agreement. Additionally, in connection with a prior transaction, prior GCI Liberty and QVC Group, Inc., formerly Qurate Retail, Inc. (“QVC Group”) entered into a tax sharing agreement, which was assumed by Liberty Broadband as a result of the combination of prior GCI Liberty and Liberty Broadband. The tax sharing agreement provides for the allocation and indemnification of tax liabilities and benefits between QVC Group and Liberty Broadband and other agreements related to tax matters. Under the facilities sharing agreement, Liberty Broadband shares office space with Liberty and related amenities at Liberty’s corporate headquarters.

Pursuant to the services agreement, Liberty provides Liberty Broadband with general and administrative services including legal, tax, accounting, treasury, information technology, cybersecurity and investor relations support. Liberty Broadband reimburses Liberty for direct, out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Liberty in providing these services which are negotiated semi-annually, as necessary.

Under these various agreements, amounts reimbursable to Liberty were approximately $2 million and $2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $7 million and $5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Liberty Broadband had a tax sharing receivable with QVC Group of approximately $10 million and $20 million as of  September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, included in Other assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

New Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In September 2025, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2025-06, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software (“ASU 2025-06”), which amends certain aspects of the accounting for and disclosure of software costs under Subtopic 350-40.  The amendments improve the operability of the guidance by removing all references to software development project stages so that the guidance is neutral to different software development methods, including methods that entities may use to develop software in the future.  ASU 2025-06 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027 (year ending December 31, 2028 for the Company).  The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2025-06 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

(2) Discontinued Operations

GCI Divestiture

On June 19, 2025, Liberty Broadband entered into a Separation and Distribution Agreement (the “Separation and Distribution Agreement”), whereby, subject to the terms thereof, GCI Liberty, a Nevada corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Liberty Broadband, would spin-off from Liberty Broadband.

Pursuant to the Separation and Distribution Agreement, the GCI Divestiture was accomplished by means of a distribution by Liberty Broadband of 0.20 of a share of GCI Liberty’s Series A, B and C GCI Group common stock (collectively, the “GCI Group common stock”), for each whole share of the corresponding series of Liberty Broadband common stock held as of June 30, 2025 by the holder thereof. The distribution of the GCI Group common stock was completed on July 14, 2025. As a result of the GCI Divestiture, GCI Liberty is an independent, publicly traded company and its businesses, assets and liabilities initially consist of 100% of the outstanding equity interests in GCI, LLC and its subsidiaries.

In connection with the GCI Divestiture, Liberty Broadband entered into certain agreements with GCI Liberty, including the Separation and Distribution Agreement, a tax sharing agreement (the “GCI Tax Sharing Agreement”) and a tax receivables agreement (the “GCI Tax Receivables Agreement”), pursuant to which, among other things, Liberty Broadband and GCI Liberty will indemnify each other against certain losses that may arise. The GCI Tax Sharing Agreement governs the allocation of taxes, tax benefits, tax items and tax-related losses between Liberty Broadband and GCI Liberty, and the GCI Tax Receivables Agreement governs the respective rights and obligations of Liberty Broadband and GCI Liberty with respect to certain tax matters. As of September 30, 2025, Liberty Broadband has a liability of $98 million due to GCI Liberty related to taxes.

As disclosed in note 1, GCI Liberty is presented as a discontinued operation in Liberty Broadband’s condensed consolidated financial results as the GCI Divestiture represents a strategic shift that had a major effect on Liberty Broadband’s operations and financial results.

Basic earnings (loss) per common share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net earnings (loss) attributable to Liberty Broadband stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding (“WASO”) for the period. Diluted EPS presents the dilutive effect on a per share basis of potential common shares as if they had been converted at the beginning of the periods presented. Excluded from diluted EPS for each of the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 are 3 million potential common shares because their inclusion would have been antidilutive. Excluded from diluted EPS for the

(4) Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value

For assets and liabilities required to be reported at fair value, GAAP provides a hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. Level 1 inputs are quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date. Level 2 inputs are inputs, other than quoted market prices included within Level 1, that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. The Company does not have any recurring assets or liabilities measured at fair value that would be considered Level 3.

The Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value are as follows:

The Company’s exchangeable senior debentures are debt instruments with quoted market value prices that are not considered to be traded on “active markets”, as defined in GAAP, and are reported in the foregoing table as Level 2 fair value.

Other Financial Instruments

Other financial instruments not measured at fair value on a recurring basis include normal working capital accounts, equity securities, and current portion of debt and long-term debt (with the exception of the 3.125% Debentures due 2054 prior to their redemption in the second quarter of 2025, and the 3.125% Debentures due 2053 (each as defined in note 6)). With the exception of long-term debt and preferred stock, the carrying amount approximates fair value due to the short maturity of

these instruments as reported on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. The carrying value of the Margin Loan Facility (as defined in note 6) bears interest at a variable rate and therefore is also considered to approximate fair value.

Realized and Unrealized Gains (Losses) on Financial Instruments

Realized and unrealized gains (losses) on financial instruments are comprised of changes in the fair value of the following:

(1)The Company has elected to account for its exchangeable senior debentures using the fair value option. Changes in the fair value of the exchangeable senior debentures recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of operations are primarily due to market factors driven by changes in the fair value of the underlying shares into which the debt is exchangeable. The Company isolates the portion of the unrealized gain (loss) attributable to the change in the instrument specific credit risk and recognizes such amount in other comprehensive income. The change in the fair value of the exchangeable senior debentures attributable to changes in the instrument specific credit risk before tax was a loss of $3 million and a gain of $38 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and a loss of $12 million and a gain of $23 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, net of the recognition of previously unrecognized gains and losses. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company recognized $53 million of previously unrecognized gains related to the retirement of the 3.125% Debentures due 2054. The cumulative change was a gain of $17 million as of September 30, 2025, net of the recognition of previously unrecognized gains and losses.

(5) Investment in Charter Accounted for Using the Equity Method

Through a number of prior years’ transactions, Liberty Broadband has acquired an interest in Charter. The investment in Charter is accounted for as an equity method affiliate based on our voting and ownership interest and the board seats held by individuals appointed by Liberty Broadband. As of September 30, 2025, the carrying and market value of Liberty Broadband’s ownership in Charter was approximately $13.1 billion and $11.8 billion, respectively. We own an approximate 33.0% economic ownership interest in Charter, based on shares of Charter’s Class A common stock issued and outstanding as of September 30, 2025.

As discussed in more detail in note 1, Charter has agreed to acquire Liberty Broadband. The Stockholders Agreement and Letter Agreement, as amended by the Stockholders and Letter Agreement Amendment, sets forth certain agreements relating to the governance of Charter and the participation of Liberty Broadband in Charter’s share repurchase program.

Pursuant to the Stockholders Agreement, Liberty Broadband’s equity ownership in Charter (on a fully diluted basis) is capped at the greater of 26% or the Voting Cap (as defined below) (the “Equity Cap”). Pursuant to the Stockholders and Letter Agreement Amendment, Liberty Broadband is exempt from the Equity Cap to the extent Liberty Broadband’s equity ownership in Charter exceeds such Equity Cap solely as a result of the repurchase provisions in the Stockholders and Letter Agreement Amendment. In the event the Merger Agreement is terminated, Liberty Broadband’s equity ownership in Charter (on a fully diluted basis) is capped at the greater of the Voting Cap or the percentage of equity owned (on a fully diluted basis) by Liberty Broadband on the termination date of the Merger Agreement. As of September 30, 2025, due to Liberty Broadband’s voting interest exceeding the current voting cap of 25.01% (the “Voting Cap”), our voting control of the aggregate voting power of Charter is 25.01%. Under the Stockholders Agreement and the Stockholders and Letter Agreement

(unaudited)

Amendment, Liberty Broadband has agreed to vote all voting securities beneficially owned by it, or over which it has voting discretion or control that are in excess of the Voting Cap in the same proportion as all other votes cast by public stockholders of Charter with respect to the applicable matter.

In February 2021, Liberty Broadband was notified that its ownership interest, on a fully diluted basis, had exceeded the Equity Cap set forth in the Stockholders Agreement. On February 23, 2021, Charter and Liberty Broadband entered into the Letter Agreement in order to implement, facilitate and satisfy the terms of the Stockholders Agreement with respect to the Equity Cap. Pursuant to the Letter Agreement, following any month during which Charter purchases, redeems or buys back shares of its Class A common stock, and prior to certain meetings of Charter’s stockholders, Liberty Broadband will be obligated to sell to Charter, and Charter will be obligated to purchase, such number of shares of Class A common stock as is necessary (if any) to reduce Liberty Broadband’s percentage equity interest, on a fully diluted basis, to the Equity Cap (such transaction, a “Charter Repurchase”). The per share sale price for each share of Charter will be equal to the volume weighted average price paid by Charter in its repurchases, redemptions and buybacks of its common stock (subject to certain exceptions) during the month prior to the Charter Repurchase (or, if applicable, during the relevant period prior to the relevant meeting of Charter stockholders). Charter Repurchases during the pendency of the proposed Transactions under the Merger Agreement are governed by the Stockholders and Letter Agreement Amendment as described below.

Interim Merger Period Stock Repurchases

Simultaneously with the execution and delivery of the Merger Agreement, Charter, Liberty Broadband and A/N have entered into an amendment to (i) the Stockholders Agreement, and (ii) the Letter Agreement. The Stockholders Agreement and the Letter Agreement, as amended by the Stockholders and Letter Agreement Amendment, sets forth certain agreements relating to the governance of Charter and the participation of Liberty Broadband in Charter’s share repurchase program.

Pursuant to the Stockholders and Letter Agreement Amendment, each month during the pendency of the proposed Transactions under the Merger Agreement, Charter will repurchase shares of Charter Class A common stock from Liberty Broadband in an amount equal to the greater of (i) $100 million and (ii) an amount such that immediately after giving effect thereto, Liberty Broadband would have sufficient cash to satisfy certain obligations as set forth in the Stockholders and Letter Agreement Amendment and Merger Agreement, provided that if any repurchase would reduce Liberty Broadband’s equity interest in Charter below 25.25% after giving effect to such repurchase or if all or a portion of such repurchase is not permitted under applicable law, then Charter shall instead loan to Liberty Broadband an amount equal to the lesser of (x) the repurchase amount that cannot be repurchased and (y) the Liberty Broadband minimum liquidity threshold less the repurchase amount that is repurchased, with such loan to occur on the terms set forth in the Stockholders and Letter Agreement Amendment. From and after the date Liberty Broadband’s 3.125% Debentures due 2053 and 3.125% Debentures due 2054 are no longer outstanding, the amount of monthly repurchases will be the lesser of (i) $100 million and (ii) an amount equal to the sum of (x) an amount such that immediately after giving effect thereto, Liberty Broadband would satisfy certain minimum liquidity requirements as set forth in the Stockholders and Letter Agreement Amendment and (y) the aggregate principal amount outstanding under the Margin Loan Facility. The per share sales price shall be determined as set forth in the Letter Agreement, provided that if Charter has not repurchased shares of its common stock during the relevant repurchase period, the repurchase price shall be based on a Bloomberg Volume Weighted Average Price methodology proposed by Charter and reasonably acceptable to Liberty Broadband.

Under the terms of the Stockholders and Letter Agreement Amendment and original Letter Agreement, Liberty Broadband sold 2,528,059 and 698,011 shares of Charter Class A common stock to Charter for $900 million and $226 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Subsequent to September 30, 2025, Liberty Broadband sold 378,373 shares of Charter Class A common stock to Charter for $100 million in October 2025.

Property and equipment and customer relationships have weighted average remaining useful lives of approximately 2 years and 7 years, respectively, and franchise fees, trademarks and goodwill have indefinite lives. The excess basis of outstanding debt is amortized over the contractual period using the straight-line method. The decrease in excess basis for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was primarily due to amortization expense during the period, partially offset by an increase in excess basis due to Charter’s share buyback program. The Company’s share of earnings (losses) of affiliate line item in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations includes expenses of $68 million and $65 million, net of related taxes, for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $201 million and $234 million, net of related taxes, for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, due to the amortization of the excess basis related to assets with identifiable useful lives and debt.

The Company had dilution losses of $17 million and $8 million during the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $50 million and $40 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The dilution losses for the periods presented were primarily attributable to the exercise of stock options and restricted stock units by employees and other third parties, partially offset by a gain on dilution related to Charter’s repurchase of Liberty Broadband’s Charter shares during both the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024.

Margin Loan Facility

On June 26, 2024, a bankruptcy remote wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“SPV”) entered into Amendment No. 8 to Margin Loan Agreement (the “Eighth Amendment”), which amends SPV’s margin loan agreement, dated as of August 31, 2017 (as amended by the Eighth Amendment, the “Margin Loan Agreement”), with a group of lenders. The Margin Loan Agreement provides for (x) a term loan credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of $1.15 billion (the “Term Loan Facility” and proceeds of such facility, the “Term Loans”), (y) a revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of $1.15 billion (the “Revolving Loan Facility” and proceeds of such facility, the “Revolving Loans”; the Revolving Loans, collectively with the Term Loans, the “Loans”) and (z) an uncommitted incremental term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $200 million (collectively, the “Margin Loan Facility”). No additional borrowings under the Margin Loan Agreement were made in connection with the Eighth Amendment. SPV’s obligations under the Margin Loan Facility are secured by shares of Charter owned by SPV. The Eighth Amendment provided for, among other things, the extension of the scheduled maturity date to June 30, 2027.

Outstanding borrowings under the Margin Loan Agreement were $840 million and $790 million as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. As of September 30, 2025, SPV was permitted to borrow an additional $1,100 million under the Margin Loan Agreement, subject to certain funding conditions, which may be drawn until five business days prior to the maturity date. The maturity date of the loans under the Margin Loan Agreement is June 30, 2027. The borrowings under the Margin Loan Agreement accrue interest at a rate equal to the three-month Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus a per annum spread of 1.875% (the “Base Spread”) (unless and until the replacement of such rate as provided for under the Margin Loan Agreement). The Margin Loan Agreement also has a commitment fee equal to 0.50% per annum on the daily unused amount of the Revolving Loans. The interest rates on the Margin Loan Facility were 5.9% and 6.5% at September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

The Margin Loan Agreement contains various affirmative and negative covenants that restrict the activities of SPV (and, in some cases, the Company and its subsidiaries with respect to shares of Charter owned by the Company and its subsidiaries). The Margin Loan Agreement does not include any financial covenants. The Margin Loan Agreement does contain restrictions related to additional indebtedness and events of default customary for margin loans of this type.

SPV’s obligations under the Margin Loan Agreement are secured by first priority liens on a portion of the Company’s ownership interest in Charter, sufficient for SPV to meet the loan to value requirements under the Margin Loan Agreement. The Margin Loan Agreement indicates that no lender party shall have any voting rights with respect to the shares pledged as collateral, except to the extent that a lender party buys any shares in a sale or other disposition made pursuant to

I-19

the terms of the loan agreement. As of September 30, 2025, 19.1 million shares of Charter common stock with a value of $5.2 billion were held in collateral accounts related to the Margin Loan Agreement.

Exchangeable Senior Debentures

On February 28, 2023, the Company closed a private offering of $1,265 million aggregate original principal amount of its 3.125% Exchangeable Senior Debentures due 2053 (the “3.125% Debentures due 2053”), including debentures with an aggregate original principal amount of $165 million issued pursuant to the exercise of an option granted to the initial purchasers. Upon an exchange of the 3.125% Debentures due 2053, the Company, at its election, may deliver shares of Charter Class A common stock, the value thereof in cash, or any combination of shares of Charter Class A common stock and cash. Initially, 1.8901 shares of Charter Class A common stock were attributable to each $1,000 original principal amount of 3.125% Debentures due 2053, representing an initial exchange price of approximately $529.07 for each share of Charter Class A common stock. A total of approximately 2.4 million shares of Charter Class A common stock were initially attributable to the 3.125% Debentures due 2053. Interest is payable quarterly on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year, commencing June 30, 2023. The 3.125% Debentures due 2053 may be redeemed by the Company, in whole or in part, on or after April 6, 2026 or, in whole but not in part, prior to April 6, 2026 if such redemption is due to the execution by the Company of an agreement which, if consummated, would result in a change in control (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Merger Agreement). Holders of the 3.125% Debentures due 2053 also have the right to require the Company to purchase their 3.125% Debentures due 2053 on April 6, 2026. The redemption and purchase price will generally equal 100% of the adjusted principal amount of the 3.125% Debentures due 2053 plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date, plus any final period distribution. As of September 30, 2025, a holder of the 3.125% Debentures due 2053 has the ability to exchange their debentures at any time after January 1, 2026 until the close of business on the second scheduled trading date immediately preceding April 6, 2026. A portion of the 3.125% Debentures due 2053 will be settled using corporate cash and restricted cash, while maintaining a minimum liquidity threshold of $50 million, and, accordingly, that portion, calculated as $102 million, has been classified as current debt within the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2025. The remaining portion is expected to be settled using proceeds from the Margin Loan Facility, and, accordingly, that portion has been classified as long-term debt within the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2025.

On July 2, 2024, the Company closed a private offering of $860 million aggregate original principal amount of its 3.125% Exchangeable Senior Debentures due 2054 (the “3.125% Debentures due 2054”), including debentures with an aggregate original principal amount of $60 million issued pursuant to the exercise of an option granted to the initial purchasers. In connection with the closing of the private offering of the 3.125% Debentures due 2054, the Company repurchased a total of $300 million in aggregate principal amount of the 3.125% Debentures due 2053 pursuant to individually privately negotiated transactions. After the repurchase, approximately 1.8 million shares of Charter Class A common stock are attributable to the 3.125% Debentures due 2053.

In March 2025, at the request of Charter, Liberty Broadband called for redemption all of its 3.125% Debentures due 2054. Pursuant to a supplemental indenture entered into in March 2025, the Company delivered cash to satisfy its exchange obligations. The 3.125% Debentures due 2054 were either redeemed in April 2025 or exchanged in March 2025 (with such exchanges settled in May 2025). During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company paid approximately $952 million to settle the 3.125% Debentures due 2054 using corporate cash, restricted cash and proceeds from the Margin Loan Facility.

The Company has elected to account for all of its exchangeable senior debentures at fair value in its condensed consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, changes in the fair value of these instruments are recognized in Realized and unrealized gains (losses) on financial instruments, net in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations. See note 4 for information related to unrealized gains (losses) on debt measured at fair value. The Company reviews the terms of all the debentures on a quarterly basis to determine whether an event has occurred to require current classification on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Under the Merger Agreement, Liberty Broadband must call for redemption of its 3.125% Debentures due 2053 for cash within 10 business days of a request by Charter, subject to Liberty Broadband having sufficient liquidity to satisfy the applicable redemption and/or exchange obligation and certain other terms and conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement.

(7) Preferred Stock

Liberty Broadband's preferred stock is issuable, from time to time, with such designations, preferences and relative participating, optional or other rights, qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, as shall be stated and expressed in a resolution or resolutions providing for the issue of such preferred stock adopted by Liberty Broadband’s board of directors.

The Liberty Broadband preferred stock was issued as a result of the closing of the Liberty Broadband combination with prior GCI Liberty on December 18, 2020. Each share of Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock of prior GCI Liberty outstanding immediately prior to the closing was converted into one share of newly issued Liberty Broadband preferred stock. The Company is required to redeem all outstanding shares of Liberty Broadband preferred stock out of funds legally available, at the liquidation price plus all unpaid dividends (whether or not declared) accrued from the most recent dividend payment date through the redemption date, on the first business day following March 8, 2039. There were 7,300,000 shares of Liberty Broadband preferred stock authorized and 7,183,812 shares issued and outstanding at September 30, 2025. An additional 42,700,000 shares of preferred stock of the Company are authorized and are undesignated as to series. The Liberty Broadband preferred stock is accounted for as a liability on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets because it is mandatorily redeemable. As a result, all dividends paid on the Liberty Broadband preferred stock are recorded as interest expense in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations. Liberty Broadband preferred stock has one-third of a vote per share.

The liquidation price is measured per share and shall mean the sum of (i) $25, plus (ii) an amount equal to all unpaid dividends (whether or not declared) accrued with respect to such share have been added to and then remain part of the liquidation price as of such date. The fair value of Liberty Broadband preferred stock of $203 million was recorded at the time of the closing of the Liberty Broadband combination with prior GCI Liberty. The fair value of Liberty Broadband preferred stock as of September 30, 2025 was $177 million (Level 1).

The holders of shares of Liberty Broadband preferred stock are entitled to receive, when and as declared by the Liberty Broadband board of directors, out of legally available funds, preferential dividends that accrue and cumulate as provided in the certificate of designations for the Liberty Broadband preferred stock.

Dividends on each share of Liberty Broadband preferred stock accrue on a daily basis at a rate of 7.00% per annum of the liquidation price.

Accrued dividends are payable quarterly on each dividend payment date, which is January 15, April 15, July 15, and October 15 of each year, commencing January 15, 2021. If Liberty Broadband fails to pay cash dividends on the Liberty Broadband preferred stock in full for any four consecutive or non-consecutive dividend periods then the dividend rate shall increase by 2.00% per annum of the liquidation price until cured. On August 21, 2025, the Company announced that its board of directors had declared a quarterly cash dividend of approximately $0.44 per share of Liberty Broadband preferred stock which was paid on October 15, 2025 to shareholders of record of the Liberty Broadband preferred stock at the close of business on September 30, 2025.

(8) Stock-Based Compensation

Liberty Broadband grants, to certain of its directors, employees and employees of its subsidiaries, restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and stock options to purchase shares of its common stock (collectively, "Awards"). The Company measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for an equity classified Award (such as stock options and restricted stock) based on the grant-date fair value (“GDFV”) of the Award and recognizes that cost over the period during which the employee

is required to provide service (usually the vesting period of the Award). The Company measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for a liability classified Award based on the current fair value of the Award and re-measures the fair value of the Award at each reporting date.

Holders of Liberty Broadband RSUs who provided services primarily or solely to GCI Liberty or its subsidiaries at the time of the GCI Divestiture, received RSUs that relate to Series C GCI Group common stock (“GLIBK”) in substitution for such Liberty Broadband RSUs. The number of shares of GLIBK subject to such substituted RSUs was determined in a manner to preserve the value of the Liberty Broadband RSUs outstanding prior to the GCI Divestiture.

Holders of Liberty Broadband RSUs other than GCI employees and holders of Liberty Broadband options, none of which were held by GCI employees, were adjusted to preserve the value of such outstanding Liberty Broadband RSUs or Liberty Broadband options, as applicable, prior to the GCI Divestiture and continued to relate to the applicable series of Liberty Broadband common stock. Holders of Liberty Broadband restricted shares outstanding as of the GCI Divestiture continued to hold their Liberty Broadband restricted shares and also received GLIBK restricted shares.

Included in Selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations are $2 million and $4 million of stock-based compensation during the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $4 million and $11 million of stock-based compensation during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Grants

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company granted 17 thousand time-based RSUs of LBRDK to our Chief Executive Officer. The RSUs had a GDFV of $61.49 per share and cliff vest ten days before the effective date of the Transactions.

There were no options to purchase shares of LBRDA, LBRDB or LBRDK granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

The Company has calculated the GDFV for all of its equity classified awards and any subsequent re-measurement of its liability classified awards using the Black-Scholes Model. The Company estimates the expected term of the Awards based on historical exercise and forfeiture data. The volatility used in the calculation for Awards is based on the historical volatility of Liberty Broadband common stock. The Company uses a zero dividend rate and the risk-free rate for Treasury Bonds with a term similar to that of the subject option.

(9) Commitments and Contingencies

General Litigation

The Company has contingent liabilities related to legal and tax proceedings and other matters arising in the ordinary course of business. Although it is reasonably possible the Company may incur losses upon conclusion of such matters, an estimate of any loss or range of loss cannot be made. In the opinion of management, it is expected that amounts, if any, which may be required to satisfy such contingencies will not be material in relation to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

(10) Segment Information

Liberty Broadband identifies its reportable segments as (A) those consolidated companies that represent 10% or more of its consolidated annual revenue or total assets and (B) those equity method affiliates whose share of earnings or losses represent 10% or more of Liberty Broadband’s annual pre-tax earnings (losses).

As a result of the GCI Divestiture and in consultation with Liberty Broadband’s chief operating decision maker, the Chief Executive Officer, we evaluated our operations and determined under the new organizational and reporting structure, the Company has one reportable segment, which is our equity method investment in Charter.

As a single reportable segment entity, the Company’s segment performance measure is net earnings (loss). See note 5 for segment disclosure information related to Charter.

The following discussion and analysis provides information concerning our results of operations and financial condition. This discussion should be read in conjunction with our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Overview

Liberty Broadband Corporation (“Liberty Broadband,” “the Company,” “us,” “we,” or “our”) is primarily comprised of an equity method investment in Charter.

Liberty Broadband and its subsidiaries completed an internal reorganization preceding the GCI Divestiture to transfer the GCI Business (as defined below) to GCI Liberty, Inc. (“GCI Liberty”). Following the internal reorganization, GCI Liberty owns, directly or indirectly, GCI, LLC and the operations comprising, and the entities that conduct, the GCI Business (collectively, “GCI”). GCI Liberty was a wholly owned subsidiary of Liberty Broadband until the GCI Divestiture, which was completed on July 14, 2025. GCI Liberty is presented as a discontinued operation in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. See note 2 to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for details of the GCI Divestiture.

On December 18, 2020, the original GCI Liberty, Inc. (“prior GCI Liberty”), the previous parent company of GCI, was acquired by Liberty Broadband. Through a number of prior years’ transactions, Liberty Broadband has acquired an interest in Charter. Liberty Broadband controls 25.01% of the aggregate voting power of Charter.

Recent Events

On November 12, 2024, the Company entered into a definitive agreement (the “Merger Agreement”) under which Charter has agreed to acquire Liberty Broadband (the “Combination”, together with the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the “Transactions”). At the special meeting held on February 26, 2025, the requisite holders of Liberty Broadband’s Series A common stock, Series B common stock and Series A cumulative redeemable preferred stock approved the adoption of the Merger Agreement, pursuant to which, among other things, Liberty Broadband will combine with Charter and divest the business of GCI (the “GCI Business”).

As discussed above, as a condition to closing the Combination, Liberty Broadband agreed to divest the GCI Business by way of a distribution to the holders of Liberty Broadband common stock (the “GCI Divestiture”), which was completed on July 14, 2025. The GCI Divestiture was taxable to Liberty Broadband and its stockholders, with Charter bearing the corporate level tax liability upon completion of the Combination. If such corporate level tax liability exceeded $420 million, Liberty Broadband (and Charter upon completion of the Combination) would be entitled under a tax receivables agreement

I-26

Table of Contents

to the portion of the tax benefits realized by GCI Liberty corresponding to such excess; however, the corporate level tax liability from the GCI Divestiture is estimated to be significantly less than $420 million.

In addition, in connection with the entry into the Merger Agreement, Charter, Liberty Broadband and Advance/Newhouse Partnership (“A/N”) entered into an amendment (the “Stockholders and Letter Agreement Amendment”) to (i) that certain Second Amended and Restated Stockholders Agreement, dated as of May 23, 2015 (as amended, the “Stockholders Agreement”), by and among Charter, Liberty Broadband, and A/N, and (ii) that certain Letter Agreement, dated as of February 23, 2021 (the “Letter Agreement”), by and between Charter and Liberty Broadband. Pursuant to the Stockholders and Letter Agreement Amendment, each month during the pendency of the proposed Transactions under the Merger Agreement, Charter will repurchase shares of Charter Class A common stock from Liberty Broadband in an amount equal to the greater of (i) $100 million and (ii) an amount such that immediately after giving effect thereto, Liberty Broadband would have sufficient cash to satisfy certain obligations as set forth in the Stockholders and Letter Agreement Amendment and Merger Agreement, provided that if any repurchase would reduce Liberty Broadband’s equity interest in Charter below 25.25% after giving effect to such repurchase or if all or a portion of such repurchase is not permitted under applicable law, then Charter shall instead loan to Liberty Broadband an amount equal to the lesser of (x) the repurchase amount that cannot be repurchased and (y) an agreed minimum liquidity threshold as set forth in the Stockholders and Letter Agreement Amendment less the repurchase amount that is repurchased, with such loan to occur on the terms set forth in the Stockholders and Letter Agreement Amendment. Liberty Broadband will remain subject to the existing voting cap of 25.01%. Proceeds from share repurchases applied to debt service are expected to be tax free.

On May 16, 2025, Charter and Cox Communications (“Cox”) announced that they entered into a definitive agreement to combine their businesses. In connection with this transaction, Liberty Broadband has agreed to accelerate the closing of its acquisition by Charter to occur contemporaneously with Charter’s combination with Cox. There are no changes to any other transaction terms of the pending Liberty Broadband and Charter transaction.

In connection with the GCI Divestiture, Martin E. Patterson was appointed to the role of President and Chief Executive Officer of Liberty Broadband, effective July 14, 2025. Upon effectiveness of Mr. Patterson’s appointment, John C. Malone resigned as President and Chief Executive Officer but remains Chairman of the Board.

On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) was enacted into law. The OBBBA contains numerous business tax provisions with varying effective dates in 2025, 2026, and 2027. During the third quarter of 2025, the Company incorporated the accounting impacts from the law change in our financial statements resulting in no material impact to income tax expense of our continuing operations.

GCI Divestiture

On June 19, 2025, Liberty Broadband entered into a Separation and Distribution Agreement (the “Separation and Distribution Agreement”), whereby, subject to the terms thereof, GCI Liberty, a Nevada corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Liberty Broadband, would spin-off from Liberty Broadband.

Pursuant to the Separation and Distribution Agreement, the GCI Divestiture was accomplished by means of a distribution by Liberty Broadband of 0.20 of a share of GCI Liberty’s Series A, B and C GCI Group common stock, (collectively, the “GCI Group common stock”), for each whole share of the corresponding series of Liberty Broadband common stock held as of June 30, 2025 by the holder thereof. The distribution of the GCI Group common stock was completed on July 14, 2025. As a result of the GCI Divestiture, GCI Liberty is an independent, publicly traded company and its businesses, assets and liabilities initially consist of 100% of the outstanding equity interests in GCI, LLC and its subsidiaries.

In connection with the GCI Divestiture, Liberty Broadband entered into certain agreements with GCI Liberty, including the Separation and Distribution Agreement, a tax sharing agreement (the “GCI Tax Sharing Agreement”) and a tax receivables agreement (the “GCI Tax Receivables Agreement”), pursuant to which, among other things, Liberty Broadband and GCI Liberty will indemnify each other against certain losses that may arise. The GCI Tax Sharing Agreement governs the allocation of taxes, tax benefits, tax items and tax-related losses between Liberty Broadband and GCI Liberty, and the

I-27

Table of Contents

GCI Tax Receivables Agreement governs the respective rights and obligations of Liberty Broadband and GCI Liberty with respect to certain tax matters.

As the GCI Divestiture represents a strategic shift that had a major effect on Liberty Broadband’s operations and financial results, GCI Liberty is presented as a discontinued operation from the GCI Divestiture date.

Update on Economic Conditions

Charter

Charter is a leading broadband connectivity company with services available to 58 million homes and small to large businesses across 41 states through its Spectrum brand.

During the third quarter of 2025, Charter added 493,000 mobile lines and video losses improved as compared to the prior year period. Internet losses remained relatively flat as compared to the prior year period. Sales were challenged by the competitive environment offset by lower customer churn. However, Charter remains focused on improving customer results through its pricing and packaging strategy launched in September 2024 and Charter’s brand platform, Life Unlimited. Life Unlimited emphasizes the power of Charter’s advanced network and cutting-edge connectivity products and services and its simplified pricing and packaging strategy better utilizes its seamless connectivity and entertainment products to offer lower promotional and persistent bundled pricing to drive growth. Charter’s Internet and mobile product bundles provide a differentiated connectivity experience by bringing together Spectrum Internet, Advanced WiFi and Unlimited Spectrum Mobile to offer consumers fast, reliable and secure online connections on their favorite devices at home and on the go in high-value packages. Charter has completed deals with every major programmer to deliver better flexibility and greater value to customers by including seamless entertainment applications with its Spectrum TV services at no additional cost. In July 2025, Charter began launching the sale of these seamless entertainment applications to customers à la carte and just recently launched the Spectrum App Store, a digital storefront that helps customers activate, upgrade, buy and manage their streaming applications in one place. Charter also continues to evolve other elements of its video product and is deploying Xumo stream boxes to new video customers.

Charter’s new customer commitments focus on reliable connectivity, transparency, exceptional service and always improving. By continually improving its product set and offering consumers the opportunity to save money by switching to its services, Charter believes it can continue to penetrate its expanding footprint and sell additional products to existing customers. Charter sees operational benefits from the targeted investments made in employee wages and benefits to build employee skill sets and tenure, as well as the continued investments in digitization of its customer service platforms, all with the goal of improving the customer experience, reducing transactions and driving customer growth and retention.

Charter spent $582 million and $1.6 billion on its subsidized rural construction initiative during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, and activated approximately 124,000 and 336,000 subsidized rural passings, respectively. Charter is upgrading its network to deliver symmetrical and multi-gigabit speeds across its footprint as part of its network evolution initiative.

Selling, general and administrative

Selling, general and administrative expense was relatively flat and increased $9 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, as compared to the corresponding prior year periods. The increase for the nine month period was primarily due to increased professional service fees related to the Transactions.

Stock-based compensation

Stock-based compensation expense decreased $2 million and $7 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, as compared to the corresponding prior year periods. The decreases in stock-based compensation expense were primarily because of decreased grant activity, as currently restricted under the Merger Agreement, and certain prior period grants completing their vesting schedules.

Operating Income (Loss)

Consolidated operating loss improved $3 million and declined $2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, as compared to the corresponding prior year periods, due to the above explanations.

Interest expense

Interest expense decreased $5 million and $27 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year. The decrease was driven by lower interest rates on our variable rate debt, as well as lower amounts outstanding of exchangeable senior debentures.

Share of earnings (losses) of affiliate

Share of earnings of affiliate decreased $51 million and increased $35 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year. The Company’s share of earnings (losses) of affiliate line item in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations includes expenses of $68 million and $65 million, net of related taxes, for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $201 million and $234 million, net of related taxes, for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, due to the change in amortization of the excess basis of assets with identifiable useful lives and debt, which was increased during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 due to a cumulative change in the applicable tax rate in the prior year period. The change in the share of earnings of affiliate in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the corresponding period in the prior years, was the result of the corresponding changes in net income at Charter.

Charter’s revenue decreased $123 million during the three months ended September 30, 2025 and remained relatively constant during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year. The decrease during the three months ended September 30, 2025 was primarily due to lower customers and lower advertising sales, partly offset by growth in mobile lines and average revenue per customer.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, operating expenses, excluding depreciation and amortization, increased $66 million and $84 million, respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year. Operating costs increased during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year, due to higher mobile service direct costs and mobile device sales due to an increase in mobile lines, higher marketing and residential sales costs due to a change in sales mix to higher cost sales channels, as well as higher network utilities expense and pole rent expense.

These increases were partially offset by lower programming costs as a result of fewer video customers and a higher mix of lower cost video packages within Charter’s video customer base as well as costs allocated to seamless entertainment applications and netted within video revenue, partly offset by contractual rate adjustments, including renewals and increases in amounts paid for retransmission consent. Customer operations also decreased during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year, due to lower labor costs, partly offset by higher bad debt expense.

Charter’s operating income decreased $204 million and $82 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year for the reasons described above.

Other expenses, net decreased $58 million and $123 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year. The decreases in other expenses, net were primarily driven by decreased interest expense due to a decrease in weighted average interest rates and debt, partly offset by increased losses on equity investments, net and losses on extinguishment of debt.

Gain (loss) on dilution of investment in affiliate

The loss on dilution of investment in affiliate increased $9 million and $10 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year. The loss on dilution of investment in affiliate increased primarily due to increases in issuance of Charter common stock from the exercise of stock options and restricted stock units held by employees and other third parties, partially offset by gains on dilution related to

The changes in these accounts are primarily due to market factors and changes in the fair value of the underlying stocks or financial instruments to which these related (see notes 4 and 6 to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for additional discussion). During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, realized and unrealized gains (losses) included $53 million of previously unrecognized gains related to the retirement of the 3.125% Exchangeable Senior Debentures due 2054. The additional changes in realized and unrealized gains (losses) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year, were primarily due to the change in fair value of the debentures outstanding for the respective periods related to changes in market price of the underlying Charter stock.

Other, net

Other, net expense increased $7 million and $14 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year. The changes were primarily due to a tax sharing receivable with QVC Group, Inc., formerly Qurate Retail, Inc. (“QVC Group”). The tax sharing receivable with QVC Group resulted in tax sharing losses of $5 million and $9 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, compared to tax sharing income of zero and $3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively. See more discussion about the tax sharing agreement with QVC Group in note 1 to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. The remaining variance is the result of decreased interest income.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company recognized tax expense less than the U.S. statutory rate of 21% primarily due to non-taxable proceeds from Charter share repurchases received pursuant to the Merger Agreement.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company recognized tax expense slightly greater than the U.S. statutory rate of 21% primarily due to the effect of state income taxes, certain non-deductible expenses and stock-based compensation, partially offset by federal tax credits.

Net earnings (loss) from continuing operations

The Company had net earnings from continuing operations of $255 million and $120 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $845 million and $523 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The change in net earnings (loss) from continuing operations was the result of the above-described fluctuations in our expenses and other income and expenses.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of September 30, 2025, substantially all of our cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents are invested in U.S. Treasury securities, other government securities or government guaranteed funds, AAA rated money market funds and other highly rated financial and corporate debt instruments.

We discuss below both potential sources and use of liquidity, however, while the Transactions are pending, we are currently subject to certain contractual restrictions and therefore may not be able to take some or all of the actions described below.

The following are potential sources of liquidity: available cash balances, monetization of investments (including Charter Repurchases (as defined in note 5 to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and discussed below)), outstanding or anticipated debt facilities (as discussed in note 6 to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements), loans from Charter pursuant to the Merger Agreement and Stockholders and Letter Agreement Amendment, and dividend and interest receipts.

As of September 30, 2025, Liberty Broadband had a cash and cash equivalents balance of $73 million.

The decrease in cash used in operating activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the corresponding period in the prior year, was primarily driven by timing differences in working capital accounts.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, net cash flows provided by investing activities were primarily related to the sale of Charter Class A common stock for $900 million and $226 million, respectively. In February 2021, Liberty Broadband entered into the Letter Agreement in order to implement, facilitate and satisfy the terms of the Stockholders Agreement with respect to the Equity Cap (see more information in note 5 to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements). Further, simultaneously with the Merger Agreement in November 2024, the Company entered into the Stockholders and Letter Agreement Amendment that provides that Charter will repurchase shares of Charter Class A common stock from Liberty Broadband in an amount equal to the greater of (i) $100 million and (ii) an amount such that immediately after giving effect thereto, Liberty Broadband would have sufficient cash to satisfy certain obligations as set forth in the Stockholders and Letter Agreement Amendment and Merger Agreement, provided that if any repurchase would reduce Liberty Broadband’s equity interest in Charter below 25.25% after giving effect to such repurchase or if all or a portion of such repurchase is not permitted under applicable law, then Charter shall instead loan to Liberty Broadband in an amount equal to the lesser of (x) the repurchase amount that cannot be repurchased and (y) an agreed minimum liquidity threshold as set forth in the Stockholders and Letter Agreement Amendment less the repurchase amount that is repurchased, with such loan to occur on the terms set forth in the Stockholders and Letter Agreement Amendment. From and after the date

the 3.125% Debentures due 2053 and 3.125% Debentures due 2054 (each as defined in note 6 to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements) are no longer outstanding, the amount of monthly repurchases will be the lesser of (i) $100 million and (ii) an amount equal to the sum of (x) an amount such that immediately after giving effect thereto, Liberty Broadband would satisfy certain minimum liquidity requirements as set forth in the Stockholders and Letter Agreement Amendment and (y) the aggregate principal amount outstanding under the Margin Loan Facility (as defined in note 6 to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements). Pursuant to this agreement, the Company expects the Charter Repurchases to be a significant source of liquidity in future periods.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, net cash flows used in financing activities were primarily to settle the 3.125% Debentures due 2054 for $952 million, partly offset by net borrowings on the Margin Loan Facility.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, net cash flows used in financing activities were primarily for the repurchase of approximately $300 million in aggregate principal amount of the 3.125% Debentures due 2053 (see more information in note 6 to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements) and net repayments of approximately $670 million on the Margin Loan Facility, partly offset by the issuance of $860 million aggregate original principal amount of its 3.125% Exchangeable Senior Debentures due 2054. Additionally, net cash flows used in financing activities included repurchases of Liberty Broadband Series A and Series C common stock of $89 million. The net cash flows used in financing activities were partly offset by a distribution received from a former subsidiary of $150 million.

The projected uses of cash and restricted cash for the remainder of 2025 are debt service and repayment, approximately $20 million for interest payments on outstanding debt, approximately $3 million for Liberty Broadband Series A cumulative redeemable preferred stock (“Liberty Broadband preferred stock”) dividends, transaction-related expense and to reimburse Liberty Media Corporation for amounts due under various agreements. We expect corporate cash and other available sources of liquidity as discussed above to cover corporate expenses for the foreseeable future.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

We are exposed to market risk in the normal course of business due to our ongoing investing and financial activities. Market risk refers to the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in stock prices and interest rates. The risk of loss can be assessed from the perspective of adverse changes in fair values, cash flows and future earnings. We have established policies, procedures and internal processes governing our management of market risks and the use of financial instruments to manage our exposure to such risks.

We are exposed to changes in interest rates primarily as a result of our borrowing and investment activities, which could include investments in fixed and floating rate debt instruments and borrowings used to maintain liquidity and to fund business operations. The nature and amount of our long-term and short-term debt are expected to vary as a result of future requirements, market conditions and other factors. We manage our exposure to interest rates by maintaining what we believe is an appropriate mix of fixed and variable rate debt. We believe this best protects us from interest rate risk. We could achieve this mix by (i) issuing fixed rate debt that we believe has a low stated interest rate and significant term to maturity, and (ii) issuing variable rate debt with appropriate maturities and interest rates.

As of September 30, 2025, our debt is comprised of the following amounts:

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

In accordance with Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including its chief executive officer and its principal accounting and financial officer (the "Executives"), and under the oversight of its board of directors, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2025. Based on that evaluation, the Executives concluded the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2025 to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in its reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms.

There has been no change in the Company's internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended September 30, 2025 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, its internal control over financial reporting.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

Our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 includes "Legal Proceedings" under Item 3 of Part I. There have been no material changes from the legal proceedings described in our Form 10-K.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

Share Repurchase Programs

There were no repurchases of Liberty Broadband Series A, Series B or Series C common stock or Liberty Broadband preferred stock during the three months ended September 30, 2025, which is currently restricted by the Merger Agreement.

During the three months ended September 30, 2025, no shares of Liberty Broadband Series A common stock, Liberty Broadband Series B common stock, Liberty Broadband Series C common stock or Liberty Broadband preferred stock were surrendered by our officers and employees to pay withholding taxes and other deductions in connection with the vesting or exercise of restricted stock.

Item 5. Other Information

As previously disclosed, on each of September 12, 2019 and September 14, 2021 (as amended on March 29, 2023), John C. Malone, Chairman of the board of directors of the Company, entered into “zero-cost collar” arrangements (the “Existing Collar Transactions”) pursuant to which Mr. Malone wrote European call options and purchased European put options referencing shares of Liberty Broadband Series C common stock. In connection with the GCI Divestiture, on July 15, 2025, Bank of America, N.A., the dealer counterparty to the Existing Collar Transactions, adjusted such transactions pursuant to their terms to reflect the economic impact of the GCI Divestiture on the Existing Collar Transactions (the “Adjusted Collar Transactions”). The duration of, and the aggregate number of Company securities covered by, such arrangements remained the same. The Adjusted Collar Transactions may constitute a “non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement,” as defined in Item 408 of Regulation S-K and are not intended to satisfy the affirmative defense of Rule 10b5-1(c).
