SoftBank, the Japanese company, announced that it will issue bonds worth approximately 60 billion yen (about 369 million dollars) this month, aiming to meet its funding needs as it expands its investments in artificial intelligence, including a roughly 65 billion dollar investment in OpenAI. The bond offerings will include three- and five-year bonds with total values of around 50 billion and 10 billion yen, respectively, with issuance managed by Nomura Securities and SMBC Nikko Securities. This move comes amid growing concerns over the potential returns from AI investments and a decline in the company’s share price after it had previously raised 678 billion yen through bonds from retail investors. SoftBank is also considering obtaining a secured loan backed by its stake in OpenAI, following the failure to raise 6 billion dollars collateralized by that stake. This step follows the upgrade of S&P’s outlook on the company to “Stable” in July, citing an improvement in its financial position, despite SoftBank remaining rated at BB+, below investment grade.
