Capitalization
The Separation from Comcast was completed on January 2, 2026 through 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’s shareholders 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 Class B common stock, respectively, held as of the record date. Immediately following the Separation, holders of Comcast’s common stock prior to the Separation owned 100% of our issued and outstanding shares.
Our Articles of Incorporation were amended and restated following the Separation to provide us with the authority to issue up to 7.5 billion shares of $0.01 par value per share Class A common stock, up to 75 million shares of $0.01 par value per share of Class B common stock, and up to 20 million shares of preferred stock with no par value. The number of votes that each share of Class A common stock has at any given time depends on the number of shares of Class A common stock and Class B common stock then outstanding, with each share of Class B common stock having 15 votes per share, and shareholders of our common stock are entitled to any dividends when and as declared without regard to class. The Class B common stock represents 33 1/3% of the combined voting power of our common stock. On each matter to be voted on, the holders of Class A common stock and Class B common stock will vote together. Each share of Class B common stock is convertible at the option of the holder into one share of Class A common stock.
Dividends
On April 22, 2026, we paid our first quarter dividend of $0.375 per share. On May 14, 2026, our Board of Directors declared our second quarter dividend of $0.375 per share, which was paid on July 22, 2026 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on July 1, 2026. On August 6, 2026, our Board of Directors declared our third quarter dividend of $0.375 per share, payable on October 22, 2026 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on October 1, 2026.
Share Repurchases
Repurchases of common stock include shares repurchased in open market transactions and a $100 million accelerated share repurchase (“ASR”) program with a financial institution, which was executed and settled during the three months ended June 30, 2026. The ASR was accounted for as an equity transaction and the number of shares purchased was based on the volume-weighted average share price of our common stock over the term of the ASR agreement less a discount.

__________________________________
(a) For periods prior to the Separation on January 2, 2026, the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share was calculated using shares of Versant common stock outstanding on the date of the Separation.
(b) Includes Class A and Class B common stock.

Diluted earnings per share is calculated using the treasury stock method and includes the impact of unvested share-based compensation awards (see Note 8) to the extent dilutive. Antidilutive securities represent the number of potential common shares related to share-based compensation awards that were excluded from diluted earnings per share because their effect would have been antidilutive.
