In an 8-K, a US company's report of a material event, Meta used the filing to distribute to its stockholders the notice of a proposed $190 million settlement of a derivative suit, a shareholder lawsuit brought on the company's behalf. Meta said the Delaware Court of Chancery entered a scheduling order on Dec 5, 2025 under which a settlement hearing was set for 1:30 pm ET on Apr 7, 2026. The proposed settlement provided for $190 million in cash, which after any court-awarded attorneys' fees and expenses and applicable taxes would go to Meta, not to individual stockholders, together with corporate governance reforms. Meta filed the 8-K on Dec 12, 2025.123456
