SCHEDULE 13D

(Amendment No. 1)

Statement of

QURATE RETAIL, INC.

Pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934

in respect of

COMSCORE, INC.

This statement on Schedule 13D/A relates to the common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), of comScore, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”). The statement on Schedule 13D originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) by Qurate Retail, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Reporting Person”), on March 16, 2021 (the “Schedule 13D”), is hereby amended and supplemented to include the information set forth herein. This amended statement on Schedule 13D/A constitutes Amendment No. 1 to the Schedule 13D (this “Amendment,” and together with the Schedule 13D, this “Statement”). This Amendment constitutes an exit filing of the Reporting Person in respect of shares of Common Stock previously reported as beneficially owned by the Reporting Person. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings given to such terms in the Schedule 13D. Except as set forth herein, the Schedule 13D is unmodified.

Item 2. Identity and Background.

The information contained in Item 2(d) – (f) of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

Schedule 1, attached to this Statement and incorporated herein by reference, provides the required information with respect to each executive officer and director, as applicable, of the Reporting Person (the “Schedule 1 Persons”). Each of such executive officers and directors is a citizen of the United States, unless otherwise noted on Schedule 1.

During the last five years, neither the Reporting Person nor any of the Schedule 1 Persons (to the knowledge of the Reporting Person) has been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors) or been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction resulting in a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

The information contained in Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following information:

On March 10, 2021, the Reporting Person purchased 27,509,203 shares of the Issuer’s Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Series B Preferred Stock”), pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in that certain Series B Convertible Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement, dated as of January 7, 2021, by and between the Issuer and the Reporting Person (the “Purchase Agreement”). On May 16, 2023, the Reporting Person sold all 27,509,203 shares of Series B Preferred Stock to Liberty Broadband Corporation for aggregate consideration of $57.5 million in a privately negotiated transaction (the “Transaction”). The sale price was based on multiple factors, including but not limited to the current interest rate environment, the payment of regular dividends by the Issuer, and a reduction in the value of the special dividend right and conversion feature of the Series B Preferred Stock. The Series B Preferred Stock is convertible at the option of the holders at any time into a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate (as defined in the Certificate of Designations for the Series B Preferred Stock), which was originally one-to-one, but was 1.067 on the date of the Transaction as a result of accrued but unpaid dividends. Also on May 16, 2023, pursuant to the terms of the SHA (as previously defined in the Schedule 13D), the Reporting Person assigned its rights and obligations under the SHA to Liberty Broadband Corporation.
