## Summary

The debt will be split roughly **two-thirds in USD and one-third in euros**, with final pricing expected later in the day. S&P Global downgraded Meta’s outlook to **AA- negative** last week, citing uncertainty over its heavy capital expenditures and negative free cash flow of **$2.12 billion** in the latest quarter—matching declines at Alphabet and Amazon.

The company’s stock rose **2.7%** on Tuesday after a **12-of-14-session losing streak**, ending October with its worst monthly performance in four years. Bloomberg first reported the bond sale plans, and Meta declined to comment.

## Why it matters

Meta’s debt issuance signals aggressive AI investment amid financial strain, raising concerns about sustainability for competitors and investors.
