SoFi Technologies (NASDAQ: SOFI) stock plummeted over 15% on Tuesday after the company revealed plans to sell up to $862.5 million in convertible bonds.
SoFi Technologies (SOFI) has announced plans to launch a $750 million private offering of convertible senior notes, due in 2029, exclusively for qualified institutional buyers. The company will also offer initial purchasers a 13-day option to buy up to an extra $112.5 million in notes.
