Facebook Stakes : Who Owns Facebook After Its IPO?

A great visualization by Reuters on who owns Facebook.



Having considered that their own employees own more than 50% of the company's share, I wonder if there will be enough "outside pressure" to make them grow even more rapidly - eg. implement mobile ads, re-structure their ad serving platform etc...

Let's discuss?

I wouldn't count on it. Zuckerberg will be retaining about 57% of the voting power even though he will have only 28% of the stock. Basically he will single handedly make all the decisions and he doesn't give a crap about wall street quarterly earnings estimates.

hahaha.. i just made a pool about this with my pool campaign.

Yes or Nope - i will earn $1,3 if someone submit email. Then i will go buy apple stock instead of facebook stock.

Haha wow more false media hype to brainwash the masses. If no one was clicking on the Facebook ads then how would they earn so much? They earned billions off their ads, which means people are definitely clicking and advertisers are paying big money for their campaigns.

I'm surprised how much FB employees own of the actual shares - pretty interesting if you ask me.

employee ownership will go down further once they are able to sell their shares

I imagine most employees will sell their shares.
