What to watch on the call

Carried forward from the last transcript

Risks management flagged

  • Potential slowdown in hyperscale or AI-driven demand could pressure bookings and backlog conversion.
  • Elevated capex and rising leverage could constrain financial flexibility if market conditions shift.
  • Regulatory and political risks in key markets (New York, Loudoun County) may affect pricing and expansion.
  • Heavy reliance on a limited set of large hyperscale tenants for greater-than-1 MW leases.
  • Power availability constraints and utility delivery timelines could delay development projects.

Questions analysts left open

  • Accretion impact and timing of recent acquisitions (Blackstone, Columbia Capital, Teraco).
  • Funding the elevated 2026 capex plan while maintaining low leverage.
  • Evolution of the asset mix between on-balance-sheet colocation and off-balance-sheet hyperscale vehicles.
  • Scaling of fee-income from private-capital platforms.
  • Sustainability of high renewal spreads and credit quality of emerging AI-native tenants.
