Google cofounders Sergey Brin and Larry Page moved an LLC out of California ahead of proposed billionaire's tax
"An entity tied to Google cofounders Sergey Brin and Larry Page moved out of California at the end of 2025, beating the deadline on a proposed wealth tax of the state's rich and powerful. T-Rex LLC, formed in 2006 and linked to Brin and Page, converted out of California into a Delaware LLC called T-Rex Holdings on December 24, 2025, according to a California filing reviewed by Business Insider. Prior filings over the past 20 years listed Brin and Page as managers of the LLC at a Palo Alto address."
"The move comes as California's wealthiest residents are weighing whether to leave the state. A proposed ballot measure would make the roughly 200 California residents whose assets exceed $1 billion pay a one-time 5% tax. If the ballot measure is approved in November, it would take effect retroactively for residents living in California as of January 1, 2026. The measure attempts to address a projected multibillion-dollar state budget deficit."
T-Rex LLC, linked to Sergey Brin and Larry Page, converted from a California LLC into a Delaware LLC named T-Rex Holdings on December 24, 2025. The conversion filing listed a Reno, Nevada principal office while retaining Brin and Page as managers. Prior filings showed a Palo Alto address and managers listed Brin and Page over the past 20 years. The filing describes T-Rex Holdings as a "management company" and its activities are unclear. The move occurred amid a proposed California ballot measure to impose a one-time 5% tax on residents with assets over $1 billion, retroactive to January 1, 2026 if approved.
