Meta plans a non‑voting share class to finance AI infrastructure, acquisitions, and talent, with trading expected in 2027.
Meta announced a new non‑voting share class designed to fund its accelerating AI initiatives, as well as potential acquisitions and employee compensation packages. The shares are slated to begin trading in 2027.
Chief Financial Officer Susan Li explained that the instrument expands the company’s financing toolkit, giving it flexibility to invest behind the unprecedented momentum AI is generating across every part of its business.
The social‑media giant now projects capital expenditures between $135 billion and $145 billion for the current year, reflecting massive data‑center build‑outs, aggressive talent hiring, and the development of competitive AI models.
