The Fundamentalytics view

Next results ~February 10, 2027 (estimated)

Equinix's trailing-twelve-month revenue grew 11.1% year on year, with a free-cash-flow margin of -16.5%. Where it lags: stock pay as % of revenue of 5.4% ranks 128 of 143 real estate companies we cover.

Current signal Free cash flow diverging from earnings: TTM free cash flow fell 1353.5% while net income grew 53.9%: a 1407pp divergence.

Assembled from SEC-filed figures — the full workings are on this page and in our methodology. Observations, not recommendations.

Strengths

  • Margins widening. Operating margin is up 5.6 points on a year ago.
  • Estimates rising. Analysts' consensus for next year's earnings per share has risen 6.6% over 90 days.

Things to watch

  • Burning cash. Free cash flow was -16.5% of revenue over the last 12 months.
  • High debt. Long-term debt exceeds cash by $20.5bn, more than 1.5 times annual revenue.
  • High earnings multiple. The shares trade at 60 times the last 12 months' earnings, so expectations are demanding.
  • Insiders selling. 10 insiders sold $61M of stock over the past 365 days and none bought (73% under pre-set trading plans).
  • Weak cash conversion. Free cash flow was -101% of net income over the last 12 months.
  • Below peers: stock pay as % of revenue. Stock pay as % of revenue of 5.4% ranks 128 of 143 real estate companies we cover (median 1.8%).

Valuation models

We value Equinix as an equity reit, with every model that fits that kind of business. Cost of equity 8.3%: the 10-year Treasury yield (4.9%) plus a beta of 0.75 times a 4.5% equity risk premium.

Different models fail in different ways, so where several apply we average them rather than trust one.

Moat

49 /100

Moderate moat

How hard Equinix's competitive advantage looks for rivals to wear away, judged from 10 years of its own filings: returns on capital, pricing power, profit durability, cash conversion and discipline.

  • Returns on capital 4 / 20

    Cash operating profit has been a median 4.7% of total assets over 10 years.

  • Pricing power 17 / 20

    Gross margin has been a median 49.4%, moving by 1.1 percentage points (standard deviation) across 10 years.

  • Durability 15 / 20

    Operating margin has been a median 18.4%; its worst year was 16.5%.

  • Cash conversion 3 / 20

    Free cash flow was positive in 3 of 10 years, at a median -0.8% of revenue.

  • Discipline 10 / 20

    The diluted share count rose 9.7% over five years; stock-based pay has been a median 5.1% of revenue.

AI disruption exposure: Low. In this industry, the business rests on physical assets, regulated networks or products AI itself depends on.
