Equinix (EQ:IX) reported fourth-quarter net income of $1.3 billion, a 12% decline from $1.48 billion in the same period of 2025, driven by lower leasing demand and higher interest and occupancy costs. Revenue totaled $4.7 billion, down 2.3% year-over-year. The company attributed the results to soft demand in its data center colocation segment, with enterprise spending tempered by macroeconomic headwinds. Guidance for 2026 remains unchanged at $4.95 billion in annual revenue and $1.55 billion in net income.
