Further to the FTSE notices released on 17 and 27 January 2014 in relation to FTSEs expected treatment of Vodafones sale of its 45% stake in Verizon Wireless to Verizon Communications (US, 2090571), and following confirmation of the Verizon share distribution & Vodafone consolidation ratio, FTSE announces the following changes:
Please note: (*) The Vodafone shares in issue total reflects the 11 into 6 share consolidation effective Monday 24 February 2014.
On Friday 21 February 2014 the closing market capitalisation value of Vodafone will be reduced by both the cash distribution and the Verizon distribution.
The value of the cash distribution is expected to be confirmed by the company on 21 February 2014. FTSEs adjustment of Vodafones market capitalisation at close on 21 February 2014 will be calculated on this confirmed value. Based on existing information the cash distribution value is expected to approximate 30p per share.
FTSE will release a further notice after market close on 21 February 2014 detailing the deletion of the temporary dummy lines and the equivalent share increase to Verizon Communications.
