TikTok owner ByteDance sets valuation at over $330 billion as revenue grows: Reuters
- ByteDance is required by legislation passed last year to sell off TikTok's U.S. operations by January 19, 2025, to avoid a complete ban of the app across the United States.
- The deadline was extended to September 17, 2025, by President Trump, who granted multiple reprieves amid ongoing trade talks with Beijing.
- If the sale is completed, TikTok's U.S. operations will be controlled by a partnership consisting of a group of American investors—including Susquehanna International Group, General Atlantic, KKR, and Andreessen Horowitz—with ByteDance retaining a minority interest.
- ByteDance's revenue for the second quarter increased by 25% year-on-year to approximately $48 billion, exceeding Meta's $42.3 billion and strengthening its standing as the top social media company globally in terms of revenue.
- ByteDance plans a new employee share buyback offering $200.41 per share, valuing the company above $330 billion and potentially boosting morale among U.S.-based staff amid political uncertainty.
