We are advising Comcast on the transaction
Davis Polk is advising Comcast Corporation in connection with a license purchase agreement relating to the sale of spectrum in the 600 MHz band to T-Mobile USA, Inc. in exchange for total cash consideration of between $1.2 billion and $3.3 billion. Consummation of the proposed transactions is subject to various customary conditions, including approval of the transaction by the Federal Communications Commission. The transaction is expected to close in the first half of 2028.
