Revenue of $2.23 billion grew 4.6% year-over-year, landing essentially in line with estimates despite a marginal -0.21% miss, as currency headwinds obscured what the company characterized as 8% normalized constant-currency growth. Adjusted EBITDA of $1.07 billion came in above the top of guidance with a 48% margin, while AFFO per share climbed 9% to $9.67. A deepening push into AI infrastructure, including a partnership with NVIDIA to deploy next-generation DGX systems across 45 global markets, underpinned the strong operational momentum. Management responded to the outperformance by raising full-year revenue guidance by $142 million to a range of $9.18 billion to $9.28 billion, with AFFO guidance lifted to $3.68 billion to $3.76 billion, signaling continued confidence in demand for global digital infrastructure through the remainder of the year.
Key Takeaways
- • Sustained demand and improved sales execution resulted in gross and net bookings above expectations
- • Strong underlying operating performance driving 26% increase in operating income year-over-year
- • Interconnection revenues increased 7% year-over-year or 9% on normalized and constant currency basis
- • Strong adoption of Fabric Cloud Router for multi-cloud connectivity
- • Favorable net interest expense contributing to AFFO growth
- • xScale data center portfolio more than 85% leased and pre-leased
