$Intel(INTC)$ USD 15 billion common stock offering a self help or share price dilution? The reality is that issuing 210.5 million brand new shares at a discounted price of USD 95 per share naturally shrinks the size of every existing shareholder's slice of the corporate pie.
However despite this, I would Vote For Intel's capital raise.
Why? If Intel tries to fund its massive 14A manufacturing process and advanced packaging hubs strictly through credit markets, interest payments alone would devour what little operating margin it has left.
If Intel does not burn cash to expand capacity now, it would cede the next decade of AI foundry orders to $Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing(TSM)$ permanently.
The stock offering was an overwhelming success as it received USD 100 billion from Wall Street that Intel increased the offering to USD 20 billion.
Intel can now expand to compete effectively with TSMC.
