Visa is a leading U.S. fintech company operating a global card-payments network that facilitates electronic fund transfers among financial institutions, merchants and consumers worldwide. The company traces its origins to Bank of America’s “BankAmericard” program launched in 1958 and adopted the Visa name in 1976. Headquartered in San Francisco, California, Visa processes credit, debit and prepaid card transactions in over 200 countries and territories. In fiscal year 2025, it handled approximately 257.5 billion transactions and $14.2 trillion in payment volume through VisaNet, cementing its position as a core pillar of the global digital-payments infrastructure.
On the same day, Visa announced in a separate Form 8-K that it completed its previously announced exchange offer on July 12, swapping B-1 and B-2 class common shares for newly issued B-3 and C-class shares. Effective July 11, the company entered into a make-whole agreement with exchange-participating shareholders to restructure how any future reserve liabilities from U.S. card-fee litigation would be allocated. The C-class shares received in the exchange are subject to transfer restrictions and may only be sold in tranches on June 25 and August 9. In this filing, Visa estimated that the outstanding interchange-fee obligations tied to unresolved “covered litigation” in the U.S. reached $17.4 billion as of May 11, underscoring that regulatory and litigation risk management remain top priorities.
