Charter completes final debt exchange, issues $55.9 million in 2038 notes
On August 24, 2026, Charter Communications Operating and its co-issuer completed the final settlement of their exchange offers for senior secured notes, issuing additional 2038 and 2041 notes in exchange for older notes. The exchanges swap existing debt for new 7.087% and 7.337% senior secured notes, so the filing shows a refinancing of existing obligations rather than new borrowing in cash.
