Meta Platforms Plans Major Bond Offering

BARCELONA, October 30, 2025 — Meta Platforms Inc (NASDAQ: META), the parent company of Facebook and Instagram, is reportedly aiming to raise at least $25 billion through a new bond sale, Bloomberg News reported Thursday, citing sources familiar with the matter.

The six-part bond offering includes maturities ranging from five to 40 years, according to fixed-income news service IFR. Citigroup and Morgan Stanley are leading the sale, which comes as the company anticipates higher capital expenditures next year.

Rising Costs Drive Financing Needs

Meta recently forecast “notably larger” capital expenses in 2026, driven by investments in artificial intelligence and new data centers. The company also reported third-quarter revenue growth of 26%, surpassing market expectations, though costs rose 32%, outpacing the revenue increase.

The longest-dated notes in the offering are reportedly priced at around 1.4 percentage points over comparable U.S. Treasuries, Bloomberg News said.

Context: Meta’s Previous Bond Activity

This bond sale marks Meta’s largest debt offering since 2022, when it raised $10 billion from the bond market. The move underscores the company’s strategy to secure long-term financing for ambitious infrastructure and AI projects amid rising operational costs.

Meta has not immediately commented on the current bond offering.
