Rivian announces sale of 75 million shares in $1.5 billion equity offering
TL;DRAI · 60 sec read

Rivian announces the sale of 75 million shares in an equity offering that will generate about $1.5 billion at recent prices, with an option for underwriters to buy 11.25 million additional shares. The timing follows a stock rally after stronger Q2 deliveries, and proceeds target the R2 program amid EV market pressures.

Rivian is selling 75 million shares of common stock in an underwritten public offering that should generate approximately $1.5 billion at recent trading levels.

Rivian times the capital raise after a stock rally. The electric vehicle maker announced the offering on July 6, 2026. All 75 million shares are being sold by the company itself.
Shares jumped after the company reported better-than-forecast second-quarter deliveries together with an improved full-year outlook.

The automaker is also granting underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 11.25 million shares. At the stock’s regular-session close of $20.14 before the announcement, the base offering would raise about $1.5 billion before fees. The total could reach closer to $1.7 billion if underwriters exercise their full option.
