  • Forward outlook: Expect positive rental rate growth on renewals in 2026; risks include rising power/utility costs and regulatory impacts potentially pressuring margins

Risk Factors

  • ASC 842 lease accounting risk: revenue recognition hinges on probable collection of lease payments, affected by customer credit and economic trends
  • Geopolitical exposure via Teraco acquisition minority shareholder put rights obligating cash/share payout impacting dilution and financial flexibility
  • Operational impairment risk from property carrying values tied to triggering events and future undiscounted net cash flows with potential write-downs
  • Competitive threat from alternative cloud and edge infrastructure technologies potentially reducing demand for traditional data center leasing
  • Financial risk from significant minority interests and put rights at Teraco complicating earnings per share dilution and FFO calculations
