Equinix does not provide forward-looking guidance for certain
financial data, such as depreciation, amortization, accretion,
stock-based compensation, net income (loss) from operations, cash
generated from operating activities and cash used in investing
activities, 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 Quote
Charles Meyers, President and
CEO, Equinix:
"With record Q2 gross bookings that sizably surpassed the
prior peak, Equinix had an outstanding first half of 2022, and our
business continued to deliver strong and consistent results. The
demand environment and our pipeline remain robust despite a complex
global macroeconomic and political landscape, as we continue to
enable digital leaders on their transformation journey."
Business Highlights
- As customers continue to embrace Equinix as the best
manifestation of the interconnected digital edge, the company
continues to invest in the expansion of its global platform:
-
- 49 major projects are currently underway across 34 metros in 21
countries, including new data center builds in Dublin, Montréal, New York, Paris, Warsaw
and the company's first build in Chennai,
India.
- In May, Equinix closed the acquisition of four data centers
from Empresa Nacional De Telecomunicaciones S.A. ("Entel"), a
leading Chilean telecommunications provider (the "Entel Chile
Acquisition"), extending Platform Equinix® into
Chile and bringing its global
footprint to 70 metros across 31 countries.
- Equinix expects to close on the acquisition of one additional
data center from Entel to enter Lima,
Peru, in Q3.
- Equinix continued to strengthen its leadership position in the
cloud ecosystem through the company's xScaleTM program,
which experienced strong leasing activity from top hyperscalers in
Q2. The xScale portfolio has now leased more than 170 megawatts
globally, with 11 xScale builds currently under development, of
which more than 80% is pre-leased.
- Equinix's Future First sustainability strategy was recently
recognized by Sustainalytics as among the best large-cap REITs for
ESG. Equinix was also ranked seventh on the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency's National Top 100 list of the largest green
power users.
- Equinix continued the growth of its indirect selling
initiatives, with channel sales delivering a fifth consecutive
quarter of record bookings, accounting for over 35% of Q2 bookings
and nearly 60% of new logos in the quarter. Wins were across a wide
range of industry verticals and use cases, with continued strength
from strategic partners including AT&T, Cisco, Dell, Google,
Microsoft and Orange Business Services. In Q2, Equinix was
recognized as HPE GreenLake's Momentum Partner of the Year for 2022
as the two companies work together to deliver a consistent hybrid
multicloud experience for joint customers.
Business Outlook
For the third quarter of 2022, the Company expects revenues to
range between $1.827 and $1.847 billion, a 1 - 2% increase over the prior
quarter on both an as-reported and normalized and constant currency
basis. This guidance includes a negative $12
million foreign currency impact when compared to the average
FX rates in Q2 2022. Adjusted EBITDA is expected to range between
$831 and $851
million. Adjusted EBITDA includes a negative $5 million foreign currency impact when compared
to the average FX rates in Q2 2022 and $9
million of integration costs from acquisitions. Recurring
capital expenditures are expected to range between $42 and $52
million.
For the full year of 2022, total revenues are expected to range
between $7.259 and $7.299 billion, a 9 - 10% increase over the
previous year, or a normalized and constant currency increase of 10
- 11%. This updated full-year guidance includes an underlying raise
of $35 million from
better-than-expected business performance, $30 million from the Entel Chile Acquisition and
a negative $102 million foreign
currency impact when compared to the prior guidance rates. Adjusted
EBITDA is expected to range between $3.323 and $3.353
billion, an adjusted EBITDA margin of 46%. This updated
full-year guidance includes an underlying raise of $25 million from better-than-expected business
performance excluding integration costs, $18
million from the Entel Chile Acquisition, offset by
$10 million due to a lease accounting
classification change and a negative $49
million foreign currency impact when compared to the prior
guidance rates. For the year, the Company now expects to incur
$30 million in integration costs
related to acquisitions. AFFO is expected to range between
$2.636 and $2.666 billion, an increase of 8 - 9% over the
previous year, or a normalized and constant currency increase of 8
- 10%. This updated AFFO guidance excluding integration costs
includes an underlying raise of $17
million, a $3 million net
benefit due to a lease accounting classification change,
$13 million from the Entel Chile
Acquisition and a negative $42
million foreign currency impact when compared to the prior
guidance rates. AFFO per share is expected to range between
$28.77 and $29.10, an increase of 6 - 7% over the previous
year on an as-reported basis, or 8 - 9% on a normalized and
constant currency basis. Total capital expenditures are expected to
range between $2.313 and $2.563 billion. Non-recurring capital
expenditures, including xScale-related capital expenditures, are
expected to range between $2.133 and
$2.373 billion, and recurring capital
expenditures are expected to range between $180 and $190
million. xScale-related on-balance sheet capital
expenditures are expected to range between $85 and $135
million, which we anticipate will be reimbursed to Equinix
from both the current and future xScale JVs.
The U.S. dollar exchange rates used for 2022 guidance, taking
into consideration the impact of our current foreign currency
hedges, have been updated to $1.14 to
the Euro, $1.31 to the Pound,
S$1.39 to the U.S. Dollar, ¥136 to
the U.S. Dollar, A$1.45 to the U.S.
Dollar, HK$7.85 to the U.S. Dollar,
R$5.20 to the U.S. Dollar and
C$1.29 to the U.S. Dollar. The Q2
2022 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 19%, 9%, 8%, 6%, 4%,
3%, 3% and 3%, respectively.
The adjusted EBITDA guidance is based on the revenue guidance
less our expectations of cash cost of revenues and cash operating
expenses. The AFFO guidance is based on the adjusted EBITDA
guidance less our expectations of net interest expense, an
installation revenue adjustment, a straight-line rent expense
adjustment, a contract cost adjustment, amortization of deferred
financing costs and debt discounts and premiums, income tax
expense, an income tax expense adjustment, recurring capital
expenditures, other income (expense), (gains) losses on disposition
of real estate property, and adjustments for unconsolidated joint
ventures' and non-controlling interests' share of these items.

About Equinix
Equinix (Nasdaq: EQIX) is the world's digital infrastructure
company, enabling digital leaders to harness a trusted platform to
bring together and interconnect the foundational infrastructure
that powers their success. Equinix enables today's businesses to
access all the right places, partners and possibilities they need

speed the launch of digital services, deliver world-class
experiences and multiply their value.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Equinix provides all information required in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), but it believes
that evaluating its ongoing operating results may be difficult if
limited to reviewing only GAAP financial measures. Accordingly,
Equinix uses non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate its
operations.
Equinix provides normalized and constant currency growth rates,
which are calculated to adjust for acquisitions, dispositions,
integration costs, changes in accounting principles and foreign
currency.
Equinix presents adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial
measure. Adjusted EBITDA represents net income excluding income tax
expense, interest income, interest expense, other income or
expense, gain or loss on debt extinguishment, depreciation,
amortization, accretion, stock-based compensation expense,
restructuring charges, impairment charges, transaction costs and
gain or loss on asset sales.
In presenting non-GAAP financial measures, such as adjusted
EBITDA, cash cost of revenues, cash gross margins, cash operating
expenses (also known as cash selling, general and administrative
expenses or cash SG&A), adjusted EBITDA margins, free cash flow
and adjusted free cash flow, Equinix excludes certain items that it
believes are not good indicators of Equinix's current or future
operating performance. These items are depreciation, amortization,
accretion of asset retirement obligations and accrued restructuring
charges, stock-based compensation, restructuring charges,
impairment charges, transaction costs and gain or loss on asset
sales. Equinix excludes these items in order for its lenders,
investors and the industry analysts who review and report on
Equinix to better evaluate Equinix's operating performance and cash
spending levels relative to its industry sector and
competitors.
Equinix excludes depreciation expense as these charges primarily
relate to the initial construction costs of a data center, and do
not reflect its current or future cash spending levels to support
its business. Its data centers are long-lived assets, and have an
economic life greater than 10 years. The construction costs of a
data center do not recur with respect to such data center, although
Equinix may incur initial construction costs in future periods with
respect to additional data centers, and future capital expenditures
remain minor relative to the initial investment. This is a trend it
expects to continue. In addition, depreciation is also based on the
estimated useful lives of the data centers. These estimates could
vary from actual performance of the asset, are based on historic
costs incurred to build out our data centers and are not indicative
of current or expected future capital expenditures. Therefore,
Equinix excludes depreciation from its operating results when
evaluating its operations.
In addition, in presenting the non-GAAP financial measures,
Equinix also excludes amortization expense related to acquired
intangible assets. Amortization expense is significantly affected
by the timing and magnitude of acquisitions, and these charges may
vary in amount from period to period. We exclude amortization
expense to facilitate a more meaningful evaluation of our current
operating performance and comparisons to our prior periods. Equinix
excludes accretion expense, both as it relates to its asset
retirement obligations as well as its accrued restructuring
charges, as these expenses represent costs which Equinix also
believes are not meaningful in evaluating Equinix's current
operations. Equinix excludes stock-based compensation expense, as
it can vary significantly from period to period based on share
price and the timing, size and nature of equity awards. As such,
Equinix and many investors and analysts exclude stock-based
compensation expense to compare its operating results with those of
other companies. Equinix excludes restructuring charges from its
non-GAAP financial measures. The restructuring charges relate to
Equinix's decision to exit leases for excess space adjacent to
several of its IBX® data centers, which it did not
intend to build out, or its decision to reverse such restructuring
charges. Equinix also excludes impairment charges generally related
to certain long-lived assets. The impairment charges are related to
expense recognized whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate that the carrying amount of assets are not recoverable.
Equinix also excludes gain or loss on asset sales as it represents
profit or loss that is not meaningful in evaluating the current or
future operating performance. Finally, Equinix excludes transaction
costs from its non-GAAP financial measures to allow more comparable
comparisons of the financial results to the historical operations.
The transaction costs relate to costs Equinix incurs in connection
with business combinations and formation of joint ventures,
including advisory, legal, accounting, valuation and other
professional or consulting fees. Such charges generally are not
relevant to assessing the long-term performance of Equinix. In
addition, the frequency and amount of such charges vary
significantly based on the size and timing of the transactions.
Management believes items such as restructuring charges, impairment
charges, transaction costs and gain or loss on asset sales are
non-core transactions; however, these types of costs may occur in
future periods.
Equinix also presents funds from operations ("FFO") and adjusted
funds from operations ("AFFO"), both commonly used in the REIT
industry, as supplemental performance measures. Additionally,
Equinix presents AFFO per share, which is also commonly used in the
REIT industry. AFFO per share offers investors and industry
analysts a perspective of Equinix's underlying operating
performance when compared to other REIT companies. FFO is
calculated in accordance with the definition established by the
National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT").
FFO represents net income or loss, excluding gain or loss from the
disposition of real estate assets, depreciation and amortization on
real estate assets and adjustments for unconsolidated joint
ventures' and non-controlling interests' share of these items. AFFO
represents FFO, excluding depreciation and amortization expense on
non-real estate assets, accretion, stock-based compensation,
stock-based charitable contributions, restructuring charges,
impairment charges, transaction costs, an installation revenue
adjustment, a straight-line rent expense adjustment, a contract
cost adjustment, amortization of deferred financing costs and debt
discounts and premiums, gain or loss on debt extinguishment, an
income tax expense adjustment, recurring capital expenditures, net
income or loss from discontinued operations, net of tax and
adjustments from FFO to AFFO for unconsolidated joint ventures' and
non-controlling interests' share of these items. Equinix excludes
depreciation expense, amortization expense, accretion, stock-based
compensation, restructuring charges, impairment charges and
transaction costs for the same reasons that they are excluded from
the other non-GAAP financial measures mentioned above.
Equinix includes an adjustment for revenues from installation
fees, since installation fees are deferred and recognized ratably
over the period of contract term, although the fees are generally
paid in a lump sum upon installation. Equinix includes an
adjustment for straight-line rent expense on its operating leases,
since the total minimum lease payments are recognized ratably over
the lease term, although the lease payments generally increase over
the lease term. Equinix also includes an adjustment to contract
costs incurred to obtain contracts, since contract costs are
capitalized and amortized over the estimated period of benefit on a
straight-line basis, although costs of obtaining contracts are
generally incurred and paid during the period of obtaining the
contracts. The adjustments for installation revenues, straight-line
rent expense and contract costs are intended to isolate the cash
activity included within the straight-lined or amortized results in
the consolidated statement of operations. Equinix excludes the
amortization of deferred financing costs and debt discounts and
premiums as these expenses relate to the initial costs incurred in
connection with its debt financings that have no current or future
cash obligations. Equinix excludes gain or loss on debt
extinguishment since it represents a cost that is not a good
indicator of Equinix's current or future operating performance.
Equinix includes an income tax expense adjustment, which represents
the non-cash tax impact due to changes in valuation allowances and
uncertain tax positions that do not relate to the current period's
operations. Equinix excludes recurring capital expenditures, which
represent expenditures to extend the useful life of its IBX and
xScale data centers or other assets that are required to support
current revenues. Equinix also excludes net income or loss from
discontinued operations, net of tax, which represents results that
are not a good indicator of our current or future operating
performance.
Equinix presents constant currency results of operations, which
is a non-GAAP financial measure and is not meant to be considered
in isolation or as an alternative to GAAP results of operations.
However, Equinix has presented this non-GAAP financial measure to
provide investors with an additional tool to evaluate its operating
results without the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency
exchange rates, thereby facilitating period-to-period comparisons
of Equinix's business performance. To present this information,
Equinix's current and comparative prior period revenues and certain
operating expenses from entities with functional currencies other
than the U.S. dollar are converted into U.S. dollars at a
consistent exchange rate for purposes of each result being
compared.
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 and the reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial
measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.
Equinix presents such non-GAAP financial measures to provide
investors with an additional tool to evaluate its operating results
in a manner that focuses on what management believes to be its
core, ongoing business operations. Management believes that the
inclusion of these non-GAAP financial measures provides consistency
and comparability with past reports and provides a better
understanding of the overall performance of the business and its
ability to perform in subsequent periods. Equinix believes that if
it did not provide such non-GAAP financial information, investors
would not have all the necessary data to analyze Equinix
effectively.
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 us to similarly titled non-GAAP
financial measures of other companies. Equinix does not provide
forward-looking guidance for certain financial data, such as
depreciation, amortization, accretion, stock-based compensation,
net income or loss from operations, cash generated from operating
activities and cash used in investing activities, 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.

recognition of tax benefits in the same amount,
