Extended read

AST SpaceMobile's decision to raise $1 billion through convertible notes has triggered a sharp sell-off, as investors react to the potential for significant equity dilution. The $80 conversion price, while a premium to current levels, highlights the company's urgent need for capital to fund its satellite constellation. The 16.5% drop adds to a brutal period for ASTS, which has seen its market value erode by 60% in just two months.
