It seems financial printer RR Donnelley made one hell of mistake earlier today, causing Google’s stock to drop 9% before Google was able to halt trading. What did they do? They filed an early draft of Google’s earnings without authorization.


Along with Google’s Q1 earnings reports, Google announced their plans to create a new class of non-voting stock which will be distributed via a stock dividend to all existing stockholders — essentially creating a 2-for-1 stock split. Existing stockholders will receive one new share of non-voting stock for every share they own, doubling their overall share without affecting voting power. This new non-voting stock will be available for corporate uses, like equity-based employee compensation, and will ensure Google’s founders retain control over Google’s destiny.
