NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Altaba Inc. (“Altaba” or the “Fund”) (NASDAQ: AABA) today announced that, on September 5, 2019, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of the Fund declared a pre-dissolution liquidating distribution of $51.50 in cash per share of its common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Shares”), which will be paid on September 23, 2019 to stockholders of record as of September 16, 2019 (the “Pre-Dissolution Liquidating Distribution”). The Fund expects that the ex-dividend date for such distribution will be September 24, 2019, the day after the payment date for the Pre-Dissolution Liquidating Distribution.
As previously announced, stockholders of the Fund approved the liquidation and dissolution of the Fund pursuant to a Plan of Complete Liquidation and Dissolution (the “Plan”) at a special meeting of stockholders held on June 27, 2019. Promptly following payment of the Pre-Dissolution Liquidating Distribution, the Fund intends to file a certificate of dissolution (the “Certificate of Dissolution”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware to dissolve the Fund. The Fund will issue a press release not less than five business days before filing the Certificate of Dissolution to announce (i) that the Board has determined to proceed with the liquidation and dissolution of the Fund and (ii) the anticipated filing date of the Certificate of Dissolution.
Thomas J. McInerney, Chief Executive Officer of the Fund, said, “This distribution represents a major milestone in our plan to liquidate and dissolve. A significant amount of work and judgment went into the determination of the distribution amount and, while not necessarily by design, it is in the middle of the range outlined in the proxy statement we filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on May 17, 2019, as supplemented on June 7, 2019. Our work to resolve actual and potential liabilities has made significant progress overall, but much remains to be done. Our principal assumptions, plans and expected outcomes, while still subject to risk and uncertainty, remain generally unchanged. We continue to be convinced that this plan is the right course for stockholders.”
Further information regarding the liquidation and dissolution of the Fund and the amount and timing of any post-dissolution liquidating distributions to stockholders, will be provided in subsequent press releases or filings with the SEC as such information becomes available.
