SpaceX launches $25 billion notes offering, source says

SpaceX launches $25 billion notes offering, source says June 23 : Elon Musk's SpaceX has launched a five-tranche notes offering aimed at raising at least $25 billion, a source familiar with the matter said on Tuesday, as the newly public company seeks funding for its capital-intensive AI expansion. SpaceX's AI ambitions carry a hefty price tag, requiring tens of billions of dollars in investment in data centers, computing hardware and power infrastructure. The offering consists of 5-year, 7-year, 10-year, 20-year, 30-year tenor senior unsecured notes, according to a document seen by Reuters. Proceeds will be used to repay borrowings under its bridge loan facility as well as for general corporate purposes. The offering, which is SpaceX's first investment-grade dollar bond issuance, has drawn nearly $85 billion in orders, the source said. SpaceX did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment. Bank of America, Citigroup, JPMorgan Chase, Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley are managing the sale, according to the document. Credit rating agencies assigned the company investment-grade ratings last week, signaling confidence in SpaceX's financial stability as it moves forward with its costly AI plans. The rockets-to-AI firm's shares rebounded on Tuesday, following a recent selloff tied to a broader tech pullback, after a blockbuster debut on June 12.
