Meta计划高达950亿美元的股票销售额,以资助其AI积分
Meta计划出售新股,为其AI基础设施建设筹集资金。 据The Information报道,该公司计划出售高达950亿美元的股份。
根据Meta公告,大约225亿美元将来自销售A级共同股票。 另有125亿美元来自存款股份,每股占新首选股份的二十分之一。 除非更早转换,否则这些首选股票将在2029年8月自动转换成共同股票。 其余600亿美元将来自新C级股票开始交易后在公开市场上的持续销售,可能不会早于2027年第一季度。
目前,Meta拥有A级股份,每股1票,B级股份每股10票。 由CEO马克·扎克伯格控制的实体持有大部分B级股份。 上周Meta 宣布的C级股份没有表决权。 这让Meta在不稀释扎克伯格控制的情况下筹集资金。 根据公告,Nvidia,AMD,Broadcom表示对购买高达50亿美元的Meta股票没有约束力的利息。

Meta plans up to $95 billion in stock sales to fund its AI buildout
Meta plans to sell new stock to raise money for its AI infrastructure buildout. According to The Information, the company plans to sell up to $95 billion in shares.
About $22.5 billion will come from selling Class A common stock, according to a Meta announcement. Another $12.5 billion will come from depositary shares, each representing one-twentieth of a new preferred share. Unless they're converted earlier, these preferred shares will automatically convert into common stock in August 2029. The remaining $60 billion will come from ongoing sales on the open market once new Class C shares start trading, likely no earlier than the first quarter of 2027.
Right now, Meta has Class A shares with one vote each and Class B shares with ten votes each. Entities controlled by CEO Mark Zuckerberg hold most of the Class B shares. The Class C shares, which Meta announced last week, carry no voting rights. That lets Meta raise money without diluting Zuckerberg's control. According to the announcement, Nvidia, AMD, and Broadcom have expressed non-binding interest in buying up to $5 billion in Meta stock.
