Intel stock extends gains after report of possible U.S. government stake
HOUSTON - Space exploration company Intuitive Machines, Inc. (NASDAQ:LUNR), currently valued at $1.87 billion, announced Wednesday its intention to offer $250 million in convertible senior notes due 2030 to qualified institutional buyers through a private placement. According to InvestingPro data, the company maintains a strong liquidity position, with liquid assets exceeding short-term obligations.
The company said it would grant initial purchasers an option to buy up to an additional $37.5 million in notes. The securities will be senior, unsecured obligations with interest payable semiannually beginning April 1, 2026, and will mature on October 1, 2030, unless converted, redeemed or repurchased earlier. While the stock has seen significant volatility, with a 185% return over the past year despite a 45% decline in the last six months, InvestingPro analysis indicates the company’s current trading price is near its Fair Value.
According to the announcement, the notes will be convertible into cash, shares of Intuitive Machines’ Class A common stock, or a combination at the company’s discretion. The interest rate and initial conversion rate will be determined upon pricing.
Intuitive Machines plans to use part of the proceeds to fund capped call transactions designed to reduce potential dilution to its stock upon note conversion. The remaining funds will support general corporate purposes, including operations, research and development, and potential acquisitions. With revenue growth of 43% in the last twelve months and a current ratio of 3.7, InvestingPro data reveals 10 additional key insights about the company’s financial health and growth prospects, available to subscribers.
In connection with the offering, the company expects to enter into privately negotiated capped call transactions with initial purchasers or their affiliates. These transactions are intended to offset potential dilution from the notes’ conversion.
The notes and any shares issuable upon conversion will only be offered to qualified institutional buyers under Rule 144A of the Securities Act and have not been registered under securities laws, the company stated.
Intuitive Machines successfully landed a lunar lander on the Moon in 2024, marking the United States’ first lunar surface return since 1972, and completed a second landing at the lunar south pole in 2025, according to the press release statement.
