ByteDance adjusts the price of Doubao shares to $17.02 and opens a cash exchange window for Doubao shares

According to reports from the major factory, ByteDance recently held a briefing on Doubao stocks and introduced new policies for relevant employees: the price of Doubao stocks was adjusted from $14.85 per share in June to $17.02 per share, an increase of about 14.6%; the issuance of Doubao stocks was increased, with some employees reaching a total package of about 5%; employees can choose to convert a certain proportion of cash in their total package into Doubao stocks, with the proportion varying by job level.

This adjustment mainly targets the large model departments under Seed (pre-training, multimodal, VLM, etc.) and the Doubao main APP team under Flow. From $13.08 in April of this year to $17.02 in August, the Doubao stock has increased by about 30.1% in less than half a year, which is about twice the increase of ByteDance options during the same period (approximately 14.5%).
