USD.AI, a platform that finances the compute middle market, closed a $106 million senior secured term loan for NexGen Cloud, a European AI cloud provider. The four‑year facility will fund 216 NVIDIA HGX B300 servers, totaling 1,728 GPUs, at a Tier III data center in Finland. The loan is tied to a take‑or‑pay agreement with an AI inference platform and will amortize over the same term.
Key points
- USD.AI closed a $106 million senior secured term loan for NexGen Cloud
- The loan finances 216 NVIDIA HGX B300 servers, 1,728 GPUs, at a Tier III data center in Finland
- USD.AI’s GPU Loan Exchange launched Oct. 1 2026 with a $98 million transaction for Duos Edge AI
USD.AI arranged the loan and acted as administrative agent through its newly launched GPU Loan Exchange (GLX), which connects standardized GPU‑backed loans with institutional capital. GLX launched on Oct. 1 2026 with a $98 million season‑and‑sell transaction for Duos Edge AI. The company has originated more than $500 million of GPU financing this year, with over $200 million of that flowing through GLX.
Conor Moore, COO and co‑founder of USD.AI, said the deal was three times the size of the first facility and that GLX brings institutional capital to the underserved compute middle market. Chris Starkey, CEO of NexGen Cloud, noted that reliable financing is essential to convert customer demand into deployed AI capacity across Europe.
