Business Highlights
•In line with its Build Bolder strategic move, the company continues to accelerate the delivery of capacity around the world and execute on numerous strategic land acquisitions. It recently closed on land deals in several metros, which brings total developable capacity to approximately 3 gigawatts, executing on plans to double its data center capacity by 2029.
◦Equinix currently has 58 major projects underway globally, including 12 xScale projects. In Q3, the company added seven new projects, including its Dallas 12 development, which is expected to deliver approximately 3,700 cabinets or 67 megawatts of capacity to this key metro.
2

◦In September, Equinix entered its 77th market in Chennai, India. With an initial investment of $69 million, the new facility will support local and global businesses by providing direct access to one of the world’s fastest-growing digital economies.
◦More than 75% of the company’s announced retail expansion spend is allocated to major metros, and more than 90% of its development is on owned land or owned buildings with long-term ground leases.
•In September, Equinix unveiled its Distributed AI infrastructure solution—including a new AI-ready backbone to support distributed AI deployments, a global AI Solutions Lab to test new solutions, and Equinix Fabric IntelligenceTM to further enhance support for inferencing workloads. Equinix Distributed AITM delivers globally distributed, interconnected infrastructure optimized for AI’s unique needs. This includes training, inference and data sovereignty, delivered through a programmable network spanning 273 data centers in 77 markets that enables secure, scalable and reliable AI operations worldwide. These new solutions—along with key partnerships with industry leaders, including Adobe, Dell, Groq, HPE, NVIDIA, WWT, Zayo and Zoom— were showcased at the company’s inaugural AI Summit.
•In Q3, the company closed over 4,400 deals with more than 3,400 customers. Equinix’s robust ecosystems continue to proliferate across a variety of sectors, including key verticals such as healthcare and life sciences, automotive, financial services, networks, and cloud and AI service providers. For example, Bristol Myers Squibb (BMS), a global leader in pharmaceutical innovation and oncology research leverages Equinix’s low-latency, high-performance digital infrastructure, to connect AI workloads with distributed data sources across geographies. This has helped BMS achieve significant cost savings while enhancing the precision and speed of oncology research and drug-target discovery.
•Equinix’s industry-leading global interconnection franchise continues to perform, with more than 499,000 total interconnections deployed across its footprint. In the third quarter of 2025, the company added 7,100 net physical and virtual connections due to accelerated hyperscaler integration and strategic diversification across the ecosystem. Interconnection revenues grew to $422 million, an as-reported increase of 10% year over year, or 8% on a normalized and constant currency basis, driven partially by a 57% year-over-year increase in Equinix Fabric® bookings.
3

◦In Q3, Equinix added two new native cloud on-ramps, in Barcelona and Dubai, adding to its industry-leading market share of the on-ramps to the major cloud service providers—key players in the AI ecosystem—in the markets in which Equinix operates. This underscores Equinix’s strategic value in reducing latency and maintaining close proximity to end-users—key factors for enterprises and service providers navigating distributed infrastructures.
•Equinix continues to drive progress in its Future First sustainability strategy, reinforcing its long-term commitment to environmental leadership.
◦The company recently announced the advancement of its power strategy in partnership with leading energy companies to develop reliable, sustainability-minded electricity solutions—including expanded utility arrangements, on-site generation technologies and next-generation nuclear energy—to support its global data centers. These agreements reflect Equinix’s focus on supporting the scale, efficiency and resiliency customers need through a comprehensive approach to power.
◦Highlighted in its 2025 Green Bond Allocation and Impact Report, as of June 30, 2025, Equinix has allocated $2.3 billion to 151 projects across 31 countries. Allocations to these projects supported the generation of 1.9 million MWh of renewable energy, are expected to yield annual energy savings of 197 GWh, and are projected to avoid an estimated 441,000 MTCO2e emissions per year.
◦For the first time ever, Equinix has achieved the EcoVadis Gold Medal, placing it among the top 5% of the approximately 150,000 companies assessed by EcoVadis globally. EcoVadis is one of the world’s most trusted providers of business sustainability ratings, offering rigorous and independent evaluations of companies’ sustainability performance —an assessment that is highly requested by our customers.

Equinix does not provide forward-looking guidance for certain financial data, such as depreciation, amortization, accretion, stock-based compensation and other components of net income or loss from operations, and as a result, is not able to provide a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures for forward-looking data without unreasonable effort. The impact of such adjustments could be significant. Equinix intends to calculate the various non-GAAP financial measures in future periods consistent with how they were calculated for the periods presented within this press release.
For the fourth quarter of 2025, the company expects revenues to range between $2.411 and $2.531 billion, an increase of 7% at the midpoint over the previous quarter on both an as-reported basis and a normalized and constant currency basis. This guidance includes a $4 million foreign currency benefit when compared to the average FX rates in Q3 2025. Adjusted EBITDA is expected to range between $1.187 and $1.267 billion. This guidance includes a $3 million foreign currency benefit when compared to the average FX rates in Q3 2025. Recurring capital expenditures are expected to range between $134 and $154 million.
For the full year of 2025, total revenues are expected to range between $9.208 and $9.328 billion, an as-reported increase of approximately 5 - 7% over the previous year, or a normalized and constant currency increase of approximately 7 - 8%. This updated guidance maintains prior full-year revenue guidance, offset by a $15 million negative foreign currency impact when compared to the prior guidance rates. Adjusted EBITDA is expected to range between $4.531 and $4.611 billion, reflecting an adjusted EBITDA margin of 49%, an approximate 250 basis-point expansion over the previous year. This updated guidance includes an underlying raise of $21 million from better-than-expected business performance, partially offset by a $7 million negative foreign currency impact when compared to prior guidance. AFFO

is expected to range between $3.731 and $3.811 billion, an increase of 11 - 14% over the previous year on an as-reported basis, or 11 - 13% on a normalized and constant currency basis. This updated guidance includes an underlying raise of $31 million from better-than-expected business performance and strong balance sheet management, partially offset by a $3 million negative foreign currency impact when compared to prior guidance rates. AFFO per share is expected to range between $37.95 and $38.77, an 8 - 11% as-reported increase over the previous year, or 8 - 10% on a normalized and constant currency basis. Total capital expenditures are expected to range between $3.792 and $4.292 billion. This includes non-recurring capital expenditures of between $3.514 and $3.994 billion and approximately $450 million of on-balance-sheet xScale-related spend, which we expect to be reimbursed as we transfer assets into our joint ventures. Recurring capital expenditures are expected to range between $278 and $298 million.
The U.S. dollar exchange rates used for 2025 guidance, taking into consideration the impact of our current foreign currency hedges, have been updated to $1.13 to the Euro, $1.29 to the British Pound, S$1.29 to the U.S. Dollar, ¥148 to the U.S. Dollar, A$1.51 to the U.S. Dollar, HK$7.78 to the U.S. Dollar, R$5.32 to the U.S. Dollar and C$1.39 to the U.S. Dollar. The Q3 2025 global revenue breakdown by currency for the Euro, British Pound, Singapore Dollar, Japanese Yen, Australian Dollar, Hong Kong Dollar, Brazilian Real and Canadian Dollar is 20%, 10%, 9%, 5%, 3%, 3%, 3% and 2%, respectively.

About Equinix
Equinix, Inc. (Nasdaq: EQIX) shortens the path to boundless connectivity anywhere in the world. Its digital infrastructure, data center footprint and interconnected ecosystems empower innovations that enhance our work, life and planet. Equinix connects economies, countries, organizations and communities, delivering seamless digital experiences and cutting-edge AI—quickly, efficiently and everywhere.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Equinix provides all information required in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), but it believes that evaluating its ongoing results of operations may be difficult if limited to reviewing only GAAP financial measures. Accordingly, Equinix also uses non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate its operations.
Non-GAAP financial measures are not a substitute for financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation, but should be considered together with the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. As such, Equinix provides a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.
Investors should note that the non-GAAP financial measures used by Equinix may not be the same non-GAAP financial measures, and may not be calculated in the same manner, as those of other companies. Investors should therefore exercise caution when comparing non-GAAP financial measures used by Equinix to similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures of other companies.
Equinix’s primary non-GAAP financial measures include Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Funds from Operations (“AFFO”) as described below. Equinix presents these measures to provide investors with additional tools to evaluate its results in a manner that focuses on what management believes to be its core, ongoing business operations. These measures exclude items which Equinix believes are generally not relevant to assessing its long-term performance. Both measures eliminate the impacts of depreciation and amortization, which are derived from historical costs and which Equinix believes are not indicative of current or future expenditures, and other items for which the frequency and amount of charges can vary based on the timing and significance of individual transactions. Equinix believes that presenting these non-GAAP financial measures provides consistency and comparability with past reports and that if it did
7

not provide such non-GAAP financial information, investors would not have all the necessary data to analyze the company effectively.
Adjusted EBITDA is used by management to evaluate the operating strength and performance of its core, ongoing business, without regard to its capital or tax structures. It also aids in assessing the performance of, making operating decisions for, and allocating resources to its operating segments. In addition to the uses described above, Equinix believes this measure provides investors with a better understanding of the operating performance of the business and its ability to perform in subsequent periods.
Equinix defines adjusted EBITDA as net income excluding:
•income tax expense
•interest income
•interest expense
•other income or expense
•gain or loss on debt extinguishment
•depreciation, amortization and accretion expense
•stock-based compensation expense
•restructuring charges, which primarily include employee severance, facility closure costs, lease or other contract termination costs and advisory fees related to the realignment of management structure, operations or products
•impairment charges
•transaction costs
•gain or loss on asset sales
AFFO is derived from Funds from Operations (“FFO”) calculated in accordance with the standards established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts. Both FFO and AFFO are non-GAAP measures commonly used in the REIT industry. Although these measures may not be directly comparable to similar measures used by other companies, Equinix believes that the presentation of these measures provides investors with an additional tool for comparing its performance with the performance of other companies in the REIT industry. Additionally, AFFO is a performance measure used in certain of the company’s employee incentive programs, and Equinix believes it is a useful measure in assessing its dividend-paying capacity, as it isolates the cash impact of certain income and expense items and considers the impact of recurring capital expenditures.
Equinix defines FFO as net income attributable to common stockholders excluding:
•gain or loss from the disposition of real estate assets
8

•depreciation and amortization on real estate assets
•adjustments for unconsolidated joint ventures’ and non-controlling interests’ share of these items
Equinix defines AFFO as FFO adjusted for:
•depreciation and amortization expense on non-real estate assets
•accretion expense
•stock-based compensation expense
•stock-based charitable contributions
•restructuring charges, as described above
•impairment charges
•transaction costs
•an adjustment to remove the impacts of straight-lining installation revenue
•an adjustment to remove the impacts of straight-lining rent expense
•an adjustment to remove the impacts of straight-lining contract costs
•amortization of deferred financing costs and debt discounts and premiums
•gain or loss from the disposition of non-real estate assets
•gain or loss on debt extinguishment
•an income tax expense adjustment, which represents the non-cash tax impact due to changes in valuation allowances, uncertain tax positions and deferred taxes
•recurring capital expenditures, which represent expenditures to extend the useful life of data centers or other assets that are required to support current revenues
•net income or loss from discontinued operations, net of tax
•adjustments from FFO to AFFO for unconsolidated joint ventures’ and non-controlling interests’ share of these items
Equinix provides normalized and constant currency growth rates for revenues, adjusted EBITDA, AFFO and AFFO per share. These growth rates assume foreign currency rates remain consistent across comparative periods. Revenue growth rates exclude the impact of net power pass-through, acquisitions, divestitures and the Equinix Metal® wind-down. Adjusted EBITDA growth rates exclude the impact of acquisitions, divestitures and integration costs. AFFO growth rates exclude the impact of acquisitions and related financing costs, divestitures, integration costs and balance sheet remeasurements. AFFO per share growth rates exclude the impact of integration costs and balance sheet remeasurements.
Equinix presents cash cost of revenues and cash operating expenses (also known as cash selling, general and administrative expenses or cash SG&A). These measures exclude depreciation, amortization,
9

accretion and stock-based compensation, which are not good indicators of Equinix’s current or future operating performance, as described above.
Equinix also presents free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow. Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities plus net cash provided by (used in) investing activities excluding the net purchases of and distributions from equity investments. Adjusted free cash flow is defined as free cash flow excluding any real estate and business acquisitions, net of cash and restricted cash acquired. These measures are presented in order for lenders, investors and the industry analysts who review and report on Equinix to better evaluate Equinix’s cash spending levels relative to its industry sector and competitors.
