Actual results may differ from those estimates. Estimates and judgments are used when accounting for the allowance for doubtful accounts, asset impairments, indefinite-lived intangibles, depreciation and amortization, income taxes, business combinations, and pension and other postretirement benefits, among others.</div> <div style="text-align: left; margin-left: 54pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial;"><br/></span></div> <div style="text-align: justify; margin-left: 54pt; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 10pt;">On July 10, 2017, we effected a one for <span style="-sec-ix-hidden:Fact_5eb387a0567c4e639825f722a68a2743">fifteen</span> reverse stock split of our common stock. The reverse stock split reduced the number of common shares issued (which includes outstanding shares and treasury shares) from approximately 1,193,000,000 shares to 80,000,000 shares, and reduced shares outstanding from 1,178,000,000 shares to 79,000,000 shares. In addition, and at the same time, the total number of shares of common stock that Frontier is authorized to issue changed from 1,750,000,000 shares to 175,000,000 shares. There was no change in the par value of the common stock, and no fractional shares were issued. As a result of our reverse stock split the conversion rates of our Series A Preferred Stock were proportionately adjusted.</div> | |
