Trading in the stock was halted for volatility multiple times during the session after SVB announced plans to raise more than $2 billion of new capital.
from CEO Greg Becker on Wednesday that it has sold "substantially all" of its available for sale securities, and was looking to raise $2.25 billion between common equity and convertible preferred shares.
The sale of securities will result in a post-tax earnings loss of $1.8 billion, SVB's letter said, but the company added that its plan to reinvest the proceeds should be "immediately accretive" as the bank reshapes its balance sheet. The Federal Reserve has aggressively hiked interest rates over the past year, which can cause the value of bonds to fall — particularly those that have many years to maturity. SVB said it is reinvesting the proceeds from its sales into shorter-term assets.
