AI overview

Meta plans to raise up to $95 billion through stock sales to fund its AI infrastructure buildout, according to The Information, with $60 billion tied to new nonvoting Class C shares likely to begin trading no earlier than the first quarter of 2027. The Class C structure would preserve Mark Zuckerberg’s voting control. The financing plan includes about $22.5 billion from Class A common stock and $12.5 billion from depositary shares, each representing one-twentieth of a new preferred share. The remaining $60 billion would come from ongoing open-market sales after Class C trading begins. According to Meta’s announcement, Nvidia, AMD, and Broadcom have expressed nonbinding interest in buying up to $5 billion in Meta stock.
