REAL ESTATE: Equinix (EQIX: Baa2/BBB/BBB+): Q4 Preview
REAL ESTATE
Since the DeepSeek sell-off on 27th Jan we are seeing some dispersion in Equity performance:
- Equinix is +0.3%; Digital Realty DLR is still -9%
- Merlin is +0.5%; Goodman is -5.6%
- In bonds, both EQIX and DLR are around +7 wider in longer dated recent deals
- DLR curve is actually TIGHTER in the 2030/2031 bucket - outperforming EQIX despite the Equity underperformance.
- With the main hyper-scalers still planning significant spending of $200bn in 2024 and $270bn in 2025 analysts are bullish on Equinix.
- Revenue expected +7.6% yoy; EBITDA +12.2% - Bberg consensus
