彭博新闻社周一报道,Meta正考虑通过潜在的跨境债券发行筹集至少200亿美元,这是科技巨头利用债务市场为其昂贵的人工智能基础设施建设筹集资金的最新举措。
Nov 2 : Meta is eyeing at least $20 billion from a potential cross-border bond offering, Bloomberg News reported on Monday, the latest move by a tech giant to tap debt markets to raise funds for its costly AI infrastructure build-out.
该报道发布之际,距该公司宣布计划进行其有史以来最大规模的股权发行,规模约为975亿美元,大约过去一周。
The report comes about a week after the company announced plans for its largest-ever equity offerings of around $97.5 billion.
彭博新闻社援引知情人士的话报道,尚未做出最终决定,发行规模可能会根据投资者需求而扩大。
No final decision has been made and the offering's size may grow depending on investor demand, Bloomberg News reported, citing people familiar with the matter.
该报道补充称,Meta已要求花旗集团和摩根士丹利于周一和周二举行投资者电话会议。
Meta has asked Citigroup and Morgan Stanley to hold investor calls on Monday and Tuesday, the report added.
随着科技巨头在扩大人工智能基础设施上投入数千亿美元,它们越来越多地转向债务市场并筹集股权。
Tech giants are increasingly tapping debt markets and raising equity as they spend hundreds of billions of dollars on expanding their AI infrastructure.
据报道,Meta潜在的美元债券发行将涵盖5年到30年的期限,而欧元发行将从大约4年到略超过38年不等。Meta、摩根士丹利和花旗集团未立即回应路透社的置评请求。
Meta's potential dollar bond sale will span maturities of 5 to 30 years, while the euro offering will range from around 4 years to just over 38 years, according to the report. Meta, Morgan Stanley and Citigroup did not immediately respond to Reuters' requests for comment.
上周,Meta定价了250亿美元的普通股发行和125亿美元的强制转换优先股发行。它还计划通过场内股票销售计划筹集最多600亿美元,该计划将允许其定期按现行市场价格出售股票。
Last week, Meta priced a $25 billion common-stock offering and a $12.5 billion offering of mandatory convertible preferred shares. It also plans to raise up to $60 billion through an at-the-market share-sale program, which would allow it to periodically sell shares at prevailing market prices.
