Liberty Global Ltd. (LBTYA) Presents at NSR/BCG Global Connectivity Leaders Conference- London Transcript

LONDON, March 18, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Liberty Global's (NASDAQ: LBTYA, LBTYB, and LBTYK) tech-enabled back-office solutions provider, Liberty Blume, has announced the appointment of Ian Larkin as Chief Executive Officer to lead the next phase of the company's growth. Larkin brings more than 25 years of leadership experience across consultancy, financial services, technology, and global operations.

Liberty Global just announced its biggest move since Sunrise: acquiring Vodafone's 50% stake in VodafoneZiggo and combining it with Telenet into a new company called Ziggo Group. Ziggo Group will list on Euronext Amsterdam in 2027 and Liberty plans to spin off 90% to shareholders — this is Sunrise 2.0, except bigger. My back-of-the-napkin valuation suggests Ziggo Group alone could be worth ~$12-16 per Liberty share — representing the entire current market cap.
