what happened

Equinix reported third-quarter 2026 revenue of $2.57 billion, up 11% from $2.32 billion a year earlier. Net income attributable to common stockholders rose to $489 million from $374 million, and diluted earnings per share reached $4.93 versus $3.81, a 29% increase. The figures come from the company's 10-Q filing, as summarized by TradingView.

Revenue grew across the Americas, EMEA and Asia-Pacific. Recurring revenue increased 10%, while annualized gross bookings rose 35% in the quarter and 23% over the first nine months. The company operates 282 data centers in 77 markets, including 24 xScale sites.

According to the company, artificial intelligence is raising power and cooling requirements, and new facilities are designed for twice the capacity of earlier sites. Power and supply constraints, however, may limit growth.

why it matters

For markets, the results signal that demand for AI-related data center capacity remains strong. Power and equipment availability remain the main constraints for the sector, and investors will watch how operators handle these bottlenecks.
