Intuitive Machines Stock Tumbles After Company Prices $300M Convertibles
Aug 14 - Shares of Intuitive Machines (NASDAQ:LUNR) fell about 10% in premarket trading on Thursday after the space-tech firm priced an upsized $300 million offering of 2.500% convertible senior notes due 2030. The deal jumped from an originally announced $250 million size and gives initial purchasers a 13-day window to buy an extra $45 million. The offering should close on Aug. 18, 2025. Warning! GuruFocus has detected 5 Warning Signs with LUNR. The notes carry a 2.500% annual coupon, payable semiannually each April 1 and Oct. 1 starting April 1, 2026. Intuitive Machines estimates net proceeds near $291.8 million after fees; roughly $32 million will cover capped-call hedges and the balance will fund general corporate purposes, including program advancement and runway support. Convertibles allow the companies to borrow at low rates now and leave optional deferred upside in the form of conversion to equity later, that structure has the effect of reducing immediate interest expense but causing possible share dilution in the future. This negative response by the market could have been prompted by an investor fear of dilution and timeframe as the company continues to achieve the next milestones. As the cash runway tightens on many small-space players, this capital raise could give Intuitive Machines some form of breathing room, with investors noting how the management intends to use it, whether important mission milestones play out, and how conversion mechanics could alter the number of shares in the period preceding 2030.

AI Revolutionizing How Enterprises Collaborate, ISG Says
STAMFORD, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Enterprises are integrating more AI features into collaboration and communications systems for more effective teamwork and customer engagement, making strategic technology choices to enhance their future competitiveness, according to new research from global AI-centered technology research and advisory firm Information Services Group (ISG) (Nasdaq: III). AI is not just modernizing but transforming how enterprises collaborate and communicate. This research provides the fundamentals for preparing to use conversational AI, including AI agents, for collaboration inside and outside an enterprise. Share The ISG Buyers Guides™ for Collaborative AI and Communication, produced by ISG Software Research, provides the rankings and ratings of over 50 software providers and their products to support effective employee, partner and customer interactions. The research finds that many companies are embracing features powered by GenAI and agentic AI as they build systems to unify geographically dispersed workforces and engage more closely with customers. 'AI is not just modernizing but transforming how enterprises collaborate and communicate. The technology expands the boundaries of what is possible so companies can significantly increase workforce productivity,' said Mark Smith, partner and chief software analyst, ISG Software Research. 'This research provides the fundamentals for preparing to use conversational AI, including AI agents, for collaboration inside and outside an enterprise.' AI is helping organizations meet the communication and collaboration challenges posed by hybrid work, data protection regulations and changing customer experience demands, the research finds. With edge computing capabilities and conversational and agentic AI, collaboration software is quickly evolving to deliver more automation and intelligence. Enterprises are seeking scalable platforms that maintain high performance, ensure compliance and provide balanced participation between in-person and remote attendees. Despite advancements in collaborative AI suites and platforms, many organizations still use fragmented communication technologies, the research finds. For effective collaboration across multiple locations, enterprises need more integrated and intelligent tools. ISG predicts that through 2027, one-fifth of enterprises will use agentic AI with communications and collaboration software to guide employees through workflows. AI is also rapidly improving communication platforms, often called communication platform as a service (CPaaS), the foundational layer for interacting with customers. As consumers expect more interactive experiences, these platforms have begun to include advanced AI that goes beyond basic chatbots, including AI meeting assistants that can perform real-time language translation, the research finds. Conversational AI tools enabled by GenAI are revolutionizing question-and-answer interactions, ISG finds. Conversational AI can guide workers and customers toward information that is not otherwise easily accessible. ISG predicts that by 2028, automated systems will keep two-thirds of customer interactions within self-service by using improvements in conversational AI and knowledge retrieval. The research also finds that AI agents are playing a growing role in these increasingly complex functions. Agents are evolving from components based on simple rule-based logic to multi-agent systems that can perform a wide range of tasks, including orchestrating actions across enterprise systems. By 2028, software providers will blend agentic AI with collaboration and communications software to offer digital assistants that increase productivity, ISG predicts. For its 2025 Buyers Guides for Collaborative AI and Communication, ISG evaluated software providers across six platform categories — AI Agents, Collaborative AI Platforms and Suites, Collaborative AI Suites, Conversational AI for CX, Conversational AI for Workforce and Communication Platforms — and produced a separate Buyers Guide for each. A total of 52 providers were assessed: [24] 8x8, Appian, Automation Anywhere, Avaya, AWS, Bandwidth, Bird, Cisco, Dialpad, Fractal, Genesys, Google, GoTo, Gupshup, HCLSoftware, IBM, Infobip, IntelePeer, LivePerson, Microsoft, Mitel, Newgen, NiCE, OpenText, Oracle, Pega, RingCentral, Route Mobile, Salesforce, Sangoma, SAP, ServiceNow, Sinch, Sprinklr, SS&C Blue Prism, Syniverse, Tanla, Talkdesk, Tata Communications, Tencent Cloud, Twilio, UiPath, Verint, Vonage, Zendesk, Zenvia, Zoho and Zoom.

Two are related to customer assurance: validation and total cost of ownership and return on investment (TCO/ROI). Providers ranked in the top three for each evaluation category are named as Leaders. Within each platform category, those with the most Leader rankings are named as Overall Leaders.
