Just a year or two back, major tech giants such as Google boasted straightforward balance sheets, with sizable cash reserves and comparatively modest debt burdens. Nowadays, under the sway of substantial investments in artificial intelligence, these corporations are embracing financial instruments that are de rigueur on Wall Street to fuel business expansion and spread risks. Take, for instance, the second quarter of 2026, when Google's total revenue soared to $119.796 billion, marking a 24% year-on-year surge. Nevertheless, owing to hefty investments in AI infrastructure, the company found itself reporting negative quarterly free cash flow for the inaugural time. To underpin its long-term AI investments, Google resorted to raising funds through the issuance of senior unsecured notes.
