March 11 (Reuters) – Oracle’s (ORCL.N) stake in TikTok’s U.S. business operations is worth around $2 billion, a filing showed on Wednesday, ​more than a month after its Chinese ‌parent ByteDance finalized a deal to set up a majority-owned American joint venture to avoid a ban.

Under the agreement, U.S. and ​global investors together hold an 80.1% stake ​in TikTok USDS Joint Venture LLC, while ByteDance ⁠owns 19.9%.

  • Each of the joint venture’s three managing ​investors — Oracle, private equity group Silver Lake and Abu ​Dhabi-based investment firm MGX — holds a 15% stake.
  • Adam Presser was appointed CEO of the venture in January.
  • The deal was a ​milestone for the social media app after years ​of battles that began in August 2020, when President Donald Trump ‌unsuccessfully ⁠tried to ban the platform over national security concerns.
  • Trump opted not to enforce a law passed in April 2024 requiring ByteDance to sell its U.S. assets ​by January ​2025 or ⁠face a ban — a measure upheld by the Supreme Court.
  • Oracle on Tuesday estimated ​that the AI data center boom will power ​its ⁠revenue above Wall Street estimates well into 2027.
  • The cloud computing company reported total revenue of $17.19 billion for the ⁠third ​quarter ended February 28, compared with ​analysts’ average estimate of $16.91 billion, according to data compiled by LSEG.
