01:15 PM EST, 11/17/2025 (MT Newswires) -- (Updated with Amazon's ( AMZN ) response to a request for comment in the third paragraph.)

Amazon.com ( AMZN ) has commenced a US dollar corporate bond sale in as many as six parts, Bloomberg reported Monday, citing a person familiar with the matter.

The tech giant is looking to raise about $12 billion from the sale, which is its first such offering in about three years, according to the report.

"Like all companies, we regularly evaluate our operating plan and make financing decisions -- like entering into a credit agreement or issuing bonds -- accordingly," an Amazon ( AMZN ) spokesperson told MT Newswires via email. "The proceeds from this issuance will be used to support business investments, fund future capital expenditures, and repay upcoming debt maturities."
