How we checked this
Checked on October 9, 2026. The cited source supports part of this claim, but not all of it.
The article quotes the CFO on borrowing against the $40 billion backlog. The link to funding expansion is the article author's own framing, not part of the quoted remark.
Confirmed in the source:
- CFO Dado Alonso said on the second-quarter earnings call in August 2026 that Nebius has approximately $40 billion of committed backlog it can borrow against
We could not confirm this from the cited source:
- That CFO Dado Alonso himself said the borrowing would be used to fund expansion
That does not mean it is false — only that this source does not establish it, as of the date above. If we find a source that settles it, we will re-check and update this page.
