Nex Secures $150M-Plus of Series E Equity and Debt
Nex secured more than $150 million through a Series E and a JPMorgan credit facility. The company did not disclose the equity-debt split.
Nex secured more than $150 million in combined equity and debt financing on September 17, 2026.
Baillie Gifford and BAI Capital led the Series E. NBA Investments, Logitech, Medici Capital Partners and Raine Group participated. JPMorgan provided a new credit facility.
Deal terms
| Field | Detail |
|---|---|
| Company | Nex |
| Total package | More than $150M |
| Equity | Series E; amount undisclosed |
| Equity leads | Baillie Gifford; BAI Capital |
| Other investors | NBA Investments; Logitech; Medici; Raine Group |
| Debt | JPMorgan credit facility; amount undisclosed |
| Valuation | Not disclosed |
Why the mix matters
The company did not separate the Series E from the credit facility, so the full amount cannot be described as equity. Debt can finance inventory and international distribution without the dilution of a larger venture round, but its pricing and covenants remain undisclosed.
Nex says its motion-controlled Playground console has sold more than one million units, is available in more than 7,000 US stores and is approaching one million subscribers. Those metrics make it a rare venture-backed consumer-hardware platform with recurring content revenue.
What remains unknown
Nex did not disclose the equity-debt split, valuation, revenue, hardware margin, churn or the credit facility's interest rate and maturity. Sales and subscriber figures are company-provided.
Bottom line
The accurate headline is more than $150 million across Series E equity and JPMorgan debt. Calling the entire package a Series E would overstate the venture capital component.
