SpaceX Pursues $40 Billion Apollo-Led Debt Package for Nvidia Chips
SpaceX is reportedly seeking about $40 billion in financing led by Apollo Global Management to buy Nvidia chips for its AI-compute infrastructure. The package would consist of roughly $10 billion in bank loans and $30 billion in investment-grade debt, with Pimco among potential lenders. The transaction is targeted to close in 2027, though SpaceX, Apollo, and Nvidia have not publicly confirmed the report.
The reported package would split into about $10 billion of bank loans and $30 billion of investment-grade bonds. Apollo is expected to arrange and market the debt, with Pimco among a small set of possible lenders. The target closing is 2027, though Reuters could not independently confirm the Financial Times account, and the named companies did not immediately comment.
SpaceX filings outline existing Nvidia-based compute sites, Colossus and Colossus II, used for its own AI work and outside customers. Anthropic-related agreements cover roughly 325,000 GPUs and $1.25 billion monthly payments through May 2029; a Google cloud deal covers about 110,000 GPUs and $920 million monthly from October 2026 to June 2029. Apollo has also joined Nvidia and other financiers on compute-financing platforms.

measured analysis of story's possible impact on society — who affected and how. It can infer. No political advocacy. Good. Need output only two labeled sections. Ensure no extra. Format: EXPANDED: [paragraphs] CONTEXT: [paragraph] Need ensure expanded total under 120. Let's final. But check "original wording, never copying source phrasing." Some phrases like "investment-grade bonds", "bank loans", "Nvidia-based", "compute-financing platforms" are factual terms. Fine. "Colossus and Colossus II" names. "Anthropic-related agreements" okay. "Google cloud deal" okay. "Apollo has joined Nvidia and other financiers on compute-financing platforms." Source says Nvidia announced partnerships with Apollo and five other financial institutions to establish compute-financing platforms. We say joined Nvidia and other financiers. Fine. Need maybe mention "Apollo Global Management-led" in expanded? We mention Apollo expected to arrange and market. Good. "Pimco among a small set of possible lenders."
