  • : SEC 8-K (8.01): On June 24, 2026, Visa Inc. authorized a deposit of $250 million into its U.S. litigation escrow account as part of its retrospective responsibility plan. This deposit led to reductions in the conversion rates of the company's class B common stock, specifically resulting in a decrease in the conversion rate for class B-1 from 1.5475 to 1.5445, for class B-2 from 1.5075 to 1.5014, and for class B-3 from 1.5075 to 1.4953, effective June 25, 2026. Such changes will dilute the common stock held primarily by U.S. financial institutions, effectively reducing the share counts for each class of stock. The adjustments were in accordance with the company’s existing corporate governance framework and are expected to have a similar effect on earnings per share as a stock buyback.
