Alphabet Inc., the parent company of Google, is planning to raise up to US$25 billion through a new bond sale, according to a source cited by The Business Times. The offering will consist of notes in as many as 10 parts, with maturities ranging from two to 40 years. This move comes as Alphabet significantly increases its capital expenditure forecast for 2026 to as much as US$205 billion, more than double the outlays in 2025. The bond sale is part of Alphabet's strategy to finance its massive investment plans, likely driven by expansion in areas such as artificial intelligence and cloud computing. The report is based on information from unnamed sources familiar with the matter.
