Nebius Prices Upsized $4 Billion Convertible Notes as Shares Rebound

The financing aims to accelerate Nebius’s AI data center buildout to meet contracted demand from hyperscale clients.

Overview

  • Nebius finalized a private $4.0 billion convertible senior note offering, estimating roughly $3.96 billion in net proceeds, with an option that could lift proceeds to about $4.55 billion.
  • Reported terms include $2.25 billion of 1.25% notes due 2031 and $1.75 billion of 2.625% notes due 2033, with conversion prices in a roughly $180.31–$183.22 per-share range.
  • Management says funds will go to data center construction, procurement of GPUs and other advanced components, and scaling its AI cloud platform.
  • Shares dropped 10.5% after the initial $3.75 billion plan, then rebounded about 4.4% after the upsized $4.0 billion pricing, reflecting ongoing volatility.
  • Large contracts and backing provide revenue visibility, including a reported up-to-$27 billion Meta deal, a multiyear Microsoft agreement, and a $2 billion Nvidia investment, while analysts flag dilution, heavy capex, and execution risk.
