Reports attributed to Reuters, CNBC and Bloomberg say S&P Global Ratings revised its outlook on Meta to negative. The stated concerns are cash flow and capital expenditure, and some coverage names AI spending directly. A Telegram market channel relayed the same news, pointing to uncertainty over heavy AI capex.
The event description mentions an S&P forecast that Meta's 2027 AI spending will exceed $225 billion. The available source texts were mostly headlines and short summaries, so this figure is not confirmed in them. The current rating level and the exact date of the action were not given either.
An outlook revision is not a downgrade, but it shows the agency sees a meaningful possibility of one if spending keeps outpacing cash generation. A negative outlook can widen the spreads on a company's bonds, make new debt more expensive and dampen equity sentiment, with possible knock-on effects for other large tech issuers building out AI capacity.
