Oracle Plans $15B Bond Sale Amid Expanding AI Infrastructure Deals

Oracle is preparing to raise $15 billion through a corporate bond sale, according to Bloomberg reports, marking one of its largest debt offerings to date. The sale could be split into as many as seven parts, with one tranche potentially extending to a rare 40-year bond.

The fundraising effort comes just weeks after Oracle reportedly signed a $300 billion compute agreement with OpenAIand entered discussions with Meta on a separate $20 billion deal. These agreements underscore Oracle’s aggressive push to dominate the AI infrastructure market.

The financing initiative follows leadership changes, with Safra Catz moving to executive vice chair of the board and Clay Magouyrk and Mike Sicilia appointed as co-CEOs.
