Meta (META<\/a>) stock slid 2% Monday morning as the company said it plans<\/a> to raise up to $95 billion through equity financing with an initial $35 billion raise in common and preferred stock to fund its aggressive AI infrastructure build-out. <\/p>\n

Its main chip suppliers, Nvidia (NVDA<\/a>), AMD (AMD<\/a>), and Broadcom (AVGO<\/a>), expressed interest in purchasing up to $5 billion in aggregate of these shares, the company said. <\/p>\n

The initial raise includes about $22.5 billion in Class A common stock and $12.5 billion in Series A mandatory convertible preferred stock. <\/p>\n

641.17 -1.45 (-0.23%) <\/p>\n

As of 11:50:04 AM EDT. Market Open. <\/p>\n

Meta said the capital raised will support continued momentum across its “core business and emerging AI opportunities.” <\/p>\n

Those initiatives include its family of apps, AI agent Muse, and infrastructure build-out, among others. <\/p>\n

Meta has been aggressively building out compute capacity and advancing its AI capabilities, with the recent launch of Muse, which has become a major consumer-facing hit. <\/p>\n
