~$180M AMD term loan expected to close by Q3 end
Company: Riot
What the later record shows
The date slipped
A news article dated 2026-10-08, after the Q3 deadline, lists a closed AMD term loan of about $180 million as something still awaited in filings. That implies it had not closed by 2026-09-30. No passage gives a new target date.
“Two filings would settle it: a closed AMD term loan near $180 million, and a takeout of the Morgan Stanley bridge before December 31.”
