软银抛售阿里股票，套现额已增至100亿美元 - 软银,阿里巴巴 - IT资讯
北京时间6月3日晚间消息，彭博社今日报道称，在行使一项额外的信托证券购买权之后，软银通过出售阿里巴巴股票所获现金已提高到100亿美元。
软银5月31日宣布，计划出售近79亿美元的阿里巴巴股份。为配合此次交易，软银将新成立一个可转换信托基金，发行总额为50亿美元的可转换债券，该债券在三年内可转化为阿里普通股。
6月2日，软银又宣布将可转债规模提高到55亿美元，同时向新加坡淡马锡额外出售5亿美元阿里巴巴股票，使得套现金额达到89亿美元。这是软银在过去16年中首次出售阿里巴巴股票。
今日，软银再次宣布，已完全行使一项额外购买20%信托证券(价值11亿美元)的权力。这部分信托证券可转换为阿里巴巴股票，使得可转债规模又提高到了66亿美元。
分析人士称，这笔现金允许软银创始人孙正义偿还公司一部分债务，并赋予公司继续寻去并购的能力。东京Ace研究所分析师Hideki Yasuda称：“自收购Sprint之后，软银的财务状况开始恶化。即使孙正义想进行大规模并购，也是力不从心。”
对于软银出售的这些股票，阿里巴巴周三表示，已同意以每股74美元的价格从软银手中回购2700万股，总额20亿美元。
在软银此次出售阿里巴巴股票，降低债务之后，一些债券持有者担心孙正义会利用部分现金继续并购。在过去的四年，在收购Sprint之后，软银的债务总额已增长近5倍。
今年3月，软银宣布把公司一分为二。其中一家专注于发展缓慢的国内电信业务，而另一家专注于打理软银在海外的投资业务。软银表示，此次重组也是公司既定战略的一部分，即让这两部分核心业务推动公司的未来增长。
