ENGLEWOOD, Colo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Liberty Media Corporation (“Liberty”) (Nasdaq: LSXMA, LSXMB, LSXMK, BATRA, BATRK, FWONA, FWONK) announced today the pricing of an underwritten public offering on behalf of certain selling stockholders (the “Selling Stockholders”) of 17,697,330 shares of Liberty’s Series C Liberty Formula One common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“FWONK”), at a price to the public of $37.40 per share. The Selling Stockholders acquired the shares of FWONK offered in this offering (or, as applicable, the exchangeable notes for which such shares will be exchanged immediately prior to settlement and closing) in January 2017 in connection with the consummation of Liberty’s acquisition of Delta Topco Limited, the parent company of Formula 1. The shares of FWONK offered in this offering include 14,527,925 shares of FWONK that will be issued to the Selling Stockholders in exchange for approximately $323.2 million aggregate principal amount of exchangeable notes, and accrued interest thereon, immediately prior to the settlement and closing of this offering. Pro forma for the offering, there will be approximately $27.4 million principal amount of exchangeable notes outstanding.

The offering is expected to settle and close on September 22, 2017, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.

The Selling Stockholders will receive all of the net proceeds from the sale of shares of FWONK. Liberty will not receive any proceeds from the sale of shares of FWONK on behalf of the Selling Stockholders in this offering.

Following the closing of the offering, the selling shareholders of Formula 1 (the “Formula 1 Selling Shareholders”) who acquired shares of FWONK in January 2017 in connection with the Formula 1 Acquisition will own approximately 3% of the equity of the Formula One Group, pro-forma for the dilutive impact of the remaining exchangeable notes and assuming no prior or subsequent acquisitions of Liberty Formula One common stock. This ownership percentage is calculated based on approximately 230.8 million shares of Liberty Formula One common stock outstanding as of August 31, 2017, which includes shares of FWONK issuable upon exchange of the remaining exchangeable notes issued to the Formula 1 Selling Shareholders not sold in this offering.
