Zuckerberg's $2.3b windfall before Facebook IPO
Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg reaped a gain of nearly $US2.3 billion ($AUD2.24b) last year when he exercised 60 million stock options just before the online social networking leader's initial public offering.
The windfall detailed in regulatory documents saddled Zuckerberg, 28, with a massive tax bill. He raised the money to pay it by selling 30.2 million Facebook shares for $US38 apiece, or $US1.1 billion, in the IPO.
Facebook's stock hasn't closed above $38 since the IPO was completed last May. The shares gained 71 cents Friday to close at $US26.85.
The 29 per cent decline from Facebook's IPO price has cost Zuckerberg nearly $US7 billion on paper, based on the 609.5 million shares of company stock that he owned as of March 31, according to the regulatory filing. His current stake is still worth $US16.4 billion.
