WhiteFiber closes $310 million note sale, but AI data center expansion still needs more funding
WhiteFiber closed a $310M convertible-note sale, with $180M remaining after fees and debt restructuring. The notes mature in 2032, carry 5% interest, and may convert to shares at $33.84 each. The funds may support data center expansion, but project financing for NC-1 is still pending. The company aims for 100MW+ capacity by 2027, subject to power and financing arrangements.
