Amazon to Raise at Least $25B in Bond Sale
Amazon plans to raise at least $25 billion through an eight-part bond sale to help fund its large artificial-intelligence buildout, according to people familiar with the matter. The company notified underwriters it does not intend to issue additional debt in 2026. Amazon disclosed the capital-raising plan in an SEC filing that did not state a dollar amount. The move follows roughly $54 billion in bond issuances earlier in the year and a $10 billion Canadian bond offering in June. Company guidance projects capital expenditures of about $200 billion for the year, largely for data centers, chips and other AI infrastructure. An Amazon spokesperson said proceeds will be used for general corporate purposes including investments, future capex and debt repayment.
