Out of the total 40 million shares, 12,903,225 shares of FCOS are being offered by Liberty Media whereas the balance 27,096,775 shares of FCOS are being offered on behalf of certain stockholders. The FCOS' shares being offered on behalf of the stockholders is priced at $31 per share. These stockholders had acquired FCOS' shares as a part of Liberty Media's January 2017 acquisition of Delta Topco Limited, the parent company which owned Formula One.

The Public Offering is expected to settle and close on May 24, 2017, and is subject to customary closing conditions.
At the close of this transaction, Liberty Media will be able to raise approximately $388.7 million from the sale of its portion of the shares, after deducting underwriters' discounts and commissions but before deducting offering expenses.
