Liberty Broadband Corp Series A

Liberty Broadband Corporation’s primary operating subsidiary, Charter Communications, operates under multiple ongoing consent decrees and regulatory settlements stemming from systemic compliance failures. The company is subject to a 2021 FTC order and separate 2021 SEC settlement concerning its failure to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act, violations which persisted for years. These were not isolated incidents; Charter also operates under a 2017 New York State Attorney General settlement over internet speed claims and a 2019 California Public Utilities Commission decision regarding utility pole attachment rules.

This pattern extends to workplace safety. Charter Communications has accumulated dozens of OSHA violations across multiple states, including repeat and willful citations for serious electrical safety hazards, fall protection failures, and other preventable safety breaches that endangered telecommunications technicians. While individual OSHA penalties are often statutorily capped, the volume and recurrence of these violations across Charter’s national footprint indicate a broader operational pattern where regulatory compliance is treated as a cost of business rather than a core responsibility.
