Equinix, Inc.
Equinix rents data-center space and the interconnection between customers already there. Digital Realty sells space in the same trade. It is not the reference site by decree. Sitting next to another customer is a convenience. They can connect somewhere else. This report does not describe how they connect.
An empty new hall is a cost. Electricity is a cost too. The customer leaves when the contract ends. A year of many new halls is not normal occupancy.
Cash separates the rent for space from the interconnection fee. The distribution has to fit. It is not a network that forces them to stay.
"The advantage is the customer already in that hall and the link they already pay for. They can leave. The moat narrows if the new hall stays empty, or if they drop the interconnection and keep only the space."

Health is the debt of the building and of the electricity, not of a closed network. Quality separates the rent for space from the interconnection fee. Growth follows occupied halls, not a construction year. P/E is read against a year of many new halls, not against that peak. Shareholder return is the distribution, checked against cash. Do not read it as the required site of the cloud.
The P/E of a year of heavy construction is not the earnings if the hall stays empty. EV/EBITDA is read with electricity, which is a cost. Do not use American Tower's multiple, which rents the tower, as if the hall and the tower were the same book. A dash if EQIX is missing.
Not advice on Equinix. Vaultflake does not treat the site as required and does not describe the connection. Read the filings. A past distribution is not a right. The table is a snapshot, not a target price.
