Exhibit 99.2

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The following unaudited pro forma combined consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared to give effect to the acquisition by Equinix, Inc. (the “Company”) of Switch & Data Facilities Company, Inc. (“Switch and Data”) using the acquisition method of accounting with the assumptions and adjustments described in the accompanying notes to the unaudited pro forma combined consolidated condensed financial statements. These pro forma statements were prepared as if the merger described above had been completed as of January 1, 2009 for statements of operations purposes and as of March 31, 2010 for balance sheet purposes. The combined company will operate under the Equinix name.

The unaudited pro forma combined consolidated condensed financial statements are presented for illustrative purposes only and are not necessarily indicative of the financial position or results of operations that would have actually been reported had the acquisition occurred on January 1, 2009 for statements of operation purposes and as of March 31, 2010 for balance sheet purposes, nor is it necessarily indicative of the future financial position or results of operations. The unaudited pro forma combined consolidated condensed financial statements include adjustments, which are based upon preliminary estimates, to reflect the allocation of the purchase price to the acquired assets and assumed liabilities of Switch and Data. The final allocation of the purchase price will be determined after the completion of the acquisition and will be based upon actual net tangible and intangible assets acquired as well as liabilities assumed. The preliminary purchase price allocation for Switch and Data is subject to revision as more detailed analysis is completed and additional information on the fair values of Switch and Data’s assets and liabilities becomes available. Any change in the fair value of the net assets of Switch and Data will change the amount of the purchase price allocable to goodwill. Additionally, changes in Switch and Data’s working capital, including the results of operations from March 31, 2010 through April 30, 2010, will change the amount of goodwill recorded. Furthermore, the final purchase price is dependent on the completion of the accounting analysis required on the Switch and Data employee equity awards assumed. Final purchase accounting adjustments may differ materially from the pro forma adjustments presented here.

These unaudited pro forma combined consolidated condensed financial statements are based upon the respective historical consolidated financial statements of Equinix and Switch and Data and, in respect of Equinix’s financial data, should be read in conjunction with the historical consolidated financial statements and related notes and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” of Equinix included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2009 and its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2010 filed with the SEC. The historical consolidated financial statements of Switch and Data have been extracted from the historical consolidated financial statements and related notes of Switch and Data incorporated by reference in this Current Report on Form 8-K. Such historical consolidated financial statements and related notes are the sole responsibility of Switch and Data and have not been independently verified by Equinix.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED CONSOLIDATED

CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The unaudited pro forma combined consolidated condensed financial statements included herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.

1. BASIS OF PRO FORMA PRESENTATION

In October 2009, the Company announced that it had entered into an agreement with Switch and Data under which the Company would acquire Switch and Data (the “Switch and Data Acquisition”). Under the terms of the Switch and Data Acquisition, Switch and Data stockholders had the opportunity to elect to receive either 0.19409 shares of Equinix common stock or $19.06 in cash for each share of Switch and Data stock. The overall consideration paid by the Company in the Switch and Data Acquisition would be 80% Equinix common stock and 20% cash. In the event that holders of more than 80% of Switch and Data’s stock elect to receive Equinix common stock or holders of more than 20% of Switch and Data’s stock elect to receive cash, the consideration of the Switch and Data Acquisition would be prorated to achieve these proportions. In addition, a portion of the cash consideration payable to Switch and Data stockholders may be replaced by an equivalent amount of Equinix common stock to the extent necessary to enable the Switch and Data Acquisition to qualify as a tax-free exchange. Switch and Data operated 34 data centers in the U.S. and Canada. The combined company will operate under the Equinix name. The Switch and Data Acquisition will be accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with the accounting standard for business combinations.

The unaudited pro forma combined consolidated condensed balance sheet as of March 31, 2010, was prepared by combining the historical audited consolidated condensed balance sheet data as of March 31, 2010 for Equinix and Switch and Data as if the Switch and Data Acquisition had been consummated on that date. Certain balance sheet reclassifications have been reflected in order to conform Switch and Data’s balance sheet with the Company’s balance sheet presentation. Refer to Note 2 for a discussion of these reclassification adjustments.

The unaudited pro forma combined consolidated condensed statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and for the year ended December 31, 2009 combined the results of operations of Equinix and Switch and Data as if the Switch and Data Acquisition had been consummated on January 1, 2009. Certain statement of operations reclassifications have been reflected in order to conform with the Company’s statement of operations presentation. Refer to Note 3 for a discussion of these reclassification adjustments.

4. PURCHASE PRICE—SWITCH AND DATA

The following represents the preliminary allocation of the purchase price over the historical net book values of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities of Switch and Data as of March 31, 2010, and is for illustrative purposes only. Actual fair values will be based on financial information as of the acquisition date.

The unaudited pro forma combined consolidated condensed financial statements reflect an estimated purchase price of approximately $698,499,000, consisting of (a) a cash payment totaling approximately $134,007,000, representing a payment of $19.06 per share for 20% of Switch and Data’s total common stock outstanding as of April 30, 2010, (b) a total of approximately 5,458,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, representing the issuance of 0.19409 shares of Equinix common stock for 80% of Switch and Data’s total common stock outstanding as of April 30, 2010, with a fair value of approximately $549,389,000 based on the closing price of Equinix common stock as of April 30, 2010 and (c) fair value of approximately $15,103,000 attributed to vested Switch and Data employee equity awards which Equinix will assume. The final purchase price will be determined upon completion of the accounting analysis required on the Switch and Data employee equity awards assumed.

Under the acquisition method of accounting, the total estimated purchase price is allocated to Switch and Data’s net tangible and intangible assets based upon their estimated fair value as of the date of completion of the merger. Based upon the estimated purchase price and the preliminary valuation, the preliminary purchase price allocation, which is subject to change based on Equinix’s final analysis, is as follows (in thousands):

allocated to favorable leases with an estimated life of approximately 7 years. A preliminary estimate of $2,100,000 has been allocated to unfavorable lease liability with an estimated life of approximately 7 years.

A preliminary estimate of $384,522,000 has been allocated to goodwill. Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired. Goodwill will not be amortized and will be tested for impairment at least annually. The preliminary purchase price allocation for Switch and Data is subject to revision as more detailed analysis is completed and additional information on the fair values of Switch and Data’s assets and liabilities becomes available. Any changes in the fair value of the net assets of Switch and Data will change the amount of the purchase price allocable to goodwill. Additionally, changes in Switch and Data’s working capital, including the results of operations from March 31, 2010 through April 30, 2010, will also change the amount of goodwill recorded. Final purchase accounting adjustments may therefore differ materially from the pro forma adjustments presented here.

There were no historical transactions between Equinix and Switch and Data. Certain reclassifications have been made to conform Switch and Data’s historical amounts to Equinix’s financial statement presentation.

The pro forma adjustments do not reflect any integration adjustments to be incurred in connection with the acquisition or operating efficiencies and cost savings that may be achieved with respect to the combined entity as these costs are not directly attributable to the purchase agreement.

5. SWITCH AND DATA DEBT

As a result of the Switch and Data Acquisition, Switch and Data’s outstanding debt became due and payable and was required to be repaid or refinanced prior to or concurrent with completion of the Switch and Data Acquisition due to change of control provisions contained in Switch and Data’s credit agreement. Equinix repaid Switch and Data’s outstanding debt immediately following the completion of the Switch and Data Acquisition. As of March 31, 2010, the aggregate principal amount of Switch and Data’s outstanding debt was $138,938,000 and accrued interest associated with this debt totaled $374,000. In addition, Switch and Data had entered into an interest rate swap agreement in connection with this debt and had a derivative liability totaling $9,543,000 as of March 31, 2010. The cost to unwind this interest rate swap agreement was the full payment of this derivative liability. For the purposes of these unaudited pro forma combined consolidated condensed financial statements, Equinix will reflect the full repayment of Switch and Data’s outstanding debt and associated interest rate swap agreement.
