Paramount Skydance to rename as Skydance, move to NYSE as SKYD around Oct. 6

Paramount Skydance Corporation told investors Friday it plans to finish a branding and listing shift early next week. In an 8-K furnished under Item 7.01, the company said it intends to transfer the listing of its Class B common stock from Nasdaq to the New York Stock Exchange, with the move expected around the market open on Oct. 6, 2026.

Alongside the exchange switch, Paramount Skydance said it intends to change the Class B ticker from PSKY to SKYD when the NYSE listing takes effect. The company also said on Oct. 2 that it intends to amend its certificate of incorporation to change its name to Skydance Corporation, likewise expected to be effective Oct. 6, 2026.

The filing refreshed mechanics around a previously announced warrant distribution. The board set a record date of the close of business on Oct. 5, 2026 for warrants to purchase Class B shares, excluding specified Ellison-, Cardinale-, and RedBird-related holders and certain Paramount benefit-plan holdings. Because of the move to the NYSE, the company said it understands Nasdaq does not intend to announce an ex-date, and that the NYSE will announce the ex-date on or about Oct. 6 in connection with the Class B listing. Holders need to keep shares through the warrant issuance and distribution date to receive warrants, the company said.

The company intends to list the warrants for trading on the NYSE, subject to approvals, and said the warrants will trade separately from Class B common stock. The 8-K stressed that the disclosure is not an offer to sell securities.

Paramount Skydance Class B shares traded near $9.39 midday Friday, down about 5.8% on the day and roughly 29% lower year to date.
