Meta\u2019s stock has already risen more than 1,700% since its IPO, against about 495% for the S&P 500, and the board wants that kind of run to continue.The yardstick is $580.60, Meta\u2019s share price on September 10. In pre-split terms, the first payout kicks in once the stock\u2019s 30-day average price crosses just over $1,161, which would put Meta\u2019s market value close to $3 trillion. The next comes at around $2,322, and the pattern repeats with every doubling after that. This sits on top of the one-for-one Class C dividend Meta has already declared. That takes effect on January 19, 2027, and works much like a two-for-one stock split.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
