Oracle Data Center Capex and Sites

Oracle's capex inflected from $21.2 billion in fiscal 2025 to $55.7 billion in fiscal 2026 (fiscal years end 31 May), funded unlike peers with debt and hybrid capital, including $42.7 billion of senior notes and $5.0 billion of mandatory convertible preferred stock in FY2026, with about $40 billion more planned for fiscal 2027 against a record $638 billion backlog. Oracle is an initial equity funder in Stargate and holds an OpenAI partnership exceeding $300 billion over five years to develop 4.5 GW of additional capacity. Its Saline Township, Michigan campus produced a $16.3 billion financing, the largest single-facility technology debt package on record, part of $72 billion in partner debt across four states. The Abilene, Texas flagship's expansion from 1.2 GW to 2 GW was dropped.

The Financial Times reported, as carried by Reuters on 18 September 2026, that about $18 billion of loans secured late in 2025 for the Oracle-leased Project Jupiter campus on about 1,400 acres in Doña Ana County, New Mexico, were being quoted at 89 to 91 cents on the dollar by syndicate banks including Santander and Jefferies, and that efforts to sell the debt to a wider pool of investors had stalled. The reports cited S&P's July 2026 downgrade of Oracle to one notch above junk. Oracle, Santander and Jefferies did not comment. On 24 September 2026 Bloomberg News reported that Oracle had sent the developer a force majeure notice aimed at deferring payments if the campus does not come online in 2028 as planned; see the Project Jupiter at-risk record

After Bloomberg reported Oracle's force majeure notice on 24 September 2026, Bloom said on 25 September that Oracle remains committed to the project and to its contract for 2.4 GW, and that the project remains on schedule; the gas pipeline and the fuel cell air-quality permit are still pending.

Oracle + We Energies (WEC Energy Group) + NextEra Energy (Point Beach owner)
On Friday 2 October 2026 Oracle and We Energies announced an agreement under which Oracle would subscribe to between 10% and 20% of the generation We Energies buys from NextEra's Point Beach Nuclear Plant in Manitowoc County, to help supply the Port Washington campus (Project Lighthouse) that Oracle is developing with OpenAI. The Journal Sentinel reports the subscription at 125 to 250 MW, roughly 10% to 20% of the 1.3 GW campus's consumption. We Energies and Oracle say the arrangement would spare other customers about $300 million of fuel costs over five years; that is a ratepayer savings estimate, not a contract value. The agreement requires approval by the Public Service Commission of Wisconsin, and Oracle expects the proposal to be filed by the end of 2026.

The record

Sourced facts on Oracle

  • FY2026 financing included $4.9 billion of cash proceeds from the sale of investments, primarily in Ampere.
  • Bloomberg reported the market reaction as 'Oracle Falls After Data Center Costs Overshadow AI Growth'.
  • Oracle is one of the initial equity funders in Stargate alongside SoftBank, OpenAI and MGX; reported equity split leaves Oracle a minority, with OpenAI maintaining a 40% stake and SoftBank similarly possessing a 40% share.
  • The Saline Township financing sits against a BBB-negative credit outlook and $553 billion in performance obligations concentrated heavily in a single counterparty, OpenAI.
  • With as much as $300bn set to go to Oracle, that cloud provider has itself struggled to fund its data center buildout, and is loading up on debt and planning to lay off thousands to cover costs.
  • Implied cancelled or deferred capacity at Abilene per the atlas: approximately 0.8 GW (the 2 GW ambition minus the 1.2 GW built).
  • Project Jupiter (New Mexico): Bloomberg News reported on 24 September 2026 that Oracle sent a force majeure notice to the developer to put off payments if the campus fails to come online in 2028 as planned; the roughly $18 billion of construction loans were quoted at 89 to 91 cents on the dollar per the Financial Times on 18 September 2026.

Hyperscaler: one page each

Site commitments overlap reported capital expenditure and overlap one another, so this page shows each figure as its source states it and never adds them into a single deployment number.
