    Alibaba secures HK$80 billion in funding to boost AI development, plans to expand infrastructure

    August 24, 2026

    Alibaba Group has announced an HK$80 billion share offering to finance its artificial intelligence expansion and enhance its AI infrastructure. The Chinese tech giant will issue 710 million new ordinary shares priced at HK$112.70 each. This transaction is valued at approximately US$10.2 billion based on current exchange rates. Alibaba projects that the deal will finalize by Aug. 26, contingent upon usual closing conditions. Alibaba’s HK$80 billion share placement directs fresh capital toward AI infrastructure. All net proceeds from this issuance will be allocated to further developing Alibaba’s comprehensive AI capabilities. The company’s plans include broadening and upgrading its AI infrastructure. Its AI ecosystem encompasses cloud computing, models, chips, and various applications, with the Qwen model family and Alibaba Cloud services being key elements of the platform. The share placement primarily targets non-U.S. investors through offshore channels. The offering price of HK$112.70 is 8.4% lower than Alibaba’s HK$123 closing price on Friday. Early Monday trading saw Hong Kong-listed shares fall as much as 10% to HK$110.10. Alibaba also has a listing in New York under the BABA ticker, traded via American depositary shares. Expansion of AI infrastructure investment at Alibaba continues. This fundraising effort follows a notable increase in Alibaba’s capital spending on computing infrastructure, which hit RMB67.68 billion—roughly US$10 billion—in the quarter ending June 30. This amount marked a 75%
