Meta creates non-voting Class C shares amid Zuckerberg's tax concerns
Meta's board approved a new non-voting Class C common stock class, effective January, which the company says will fund capital raising, employee pay and acquisitions tied to its AI push. The New York Times reports an SEC filing shows the plan was also shaped by CEO Mark Zuckerberg's concerns about California's proposed Proposition 40 billionaire tax, which could impose a one-time 5% levy on billionaires' net worth.
