Part II
Item 5: Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related
Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities
Comcast’s Class A common stock is listed on the NASDAQ Global Select Market under the symbol CMCSA.
In December 2015, our shareholders approved a proposal to amend and restate our Amended and Restated
Certificate of Incorporation in order to reclassify each issued share of Comcast’s Class A Special common
stock into one share of Comcast’s Class A common stock. This reclassification became effective as of the
close of business on December 11, 2015, at which time Comcast’s Class A Special common stock was no
longer outstanding and ceased trading on the NASDAQ under the symbol CMCSK and instead became listed
on the NASDAQ under the symbol CMCSA. There is no established public trading market for Comcast’s
Class B common stock. The Class B common stock can be converted, on a share for share basis, into
Class A common stock.
Dividends Declared
2015 2014
Month Declared: Dividend Per Share Month Declared: Dividend Per Share
February $ 0.25 January $ 0.225
May $ 0.25 May $ 0.225
July $ 0.25 July $ 0.225
October (paid in January 2016) $ 0.25 October (paid in January 2015) $ 0.225
Total $ 1.00 Total $ 0.90
We expect to continue to pay quarterly dividends, although each dividend is subject to approval by our Board
of Directors. In January 2016, our Board of Directors approved a 10.0% increase in our dividend to $1.10 per
share on an annualized basis and approved our first quarter dividend of $0.275 per share to be paid in April
2016.
Holders of Class A common stock in the aggregate hold 66 2/3% of the voting power of our common stock.
The number of votes that each share of Class A common stock has at any given time depends on the num-
ber of shares of Class A common stock and Class B common stock then outstanding. The Class B common
stock has a 33 1/3% nondilutable voting interest, and each share of Class B common stock has 15 votes per
share. Mr. Brian L. Roberts beneficially owns all outstanding shares of Class B common stock. Generally,
including as to the election of directors, holders of Class A common stock and Class B common stock vote
as one class except where class voting is required by law.
Record holders as of December 31, 2015, are presented in the table below.
