Ratings come from analysts, or specialists within banking and financial systems that report for specific stocks or defined sectors (typically once per quarter for each stock). Analysts usually derive their information from company conference calls and meetings, financial statements, and conversations with important insiders to reach their decisions.
Some analysts also offer predictions for helpful metrics such as earnings, revenue, and growth estimates to provide further guidance as to what to do with certain tickers.

Analyst Ratings

Equinix Stock: A Deep Dive Into Analyst Perspectives (14 Ratings)

Wall Street climbed on Thursday, even as the Producer Price Index (PPI) sharply exceeded estimates in January, reigniting concerns <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/02/43692996/inflation-fears-mount-as-producer-prices-soar-to-35-put-fed-interest-rate-cut-on-ice">over persistent inflationary pressures. </a>
Despite the hotter-than-expected PPI reading—up 3.5% year-over-year in January, surpassing the 3.3% forecast—investors found some relief in certain PPI components that influence the Federal Reserve's preferred inflation gauge, which showed signs of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/02/43701823/economists-breathe-sigh-of-relief-why-producer-inflation-isnt-as-bad-as-it-seems">cooling compared to December.</a>
Investor risk appetite remained supported by expectations of ceasefire talks in Ukraine following a conversation between former President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin a day earlier. 
By midday trading in New York, all major indices were in positive territory, with technology stocks leading the gains. Among semiconductor stocks, Intel Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTC#NASDAQ">INTC</a>) continued to rally, surging 10% after strong performances in prior sessions. 
The U.S. chipmaker benefited from renewed buying momentum following comments from Vice President J.D. Vance, who indicated that the Trump administration plans to ease regulations to accelerate AI chip innovation in the U.S.
Intel has now soared over 27% this week, tracking its best weekly performance since 1974. 
The U.S. dollar extended its decline as Treasury yields pulled back sharply, reversing Wednesday&#8217;s surge.
In commodities, gold edged up 0.4% to $2,918 per ounce, oil remained steady at $71 per barrel, and natural gas surged 2.4% to $3.66 per million British thermal units. 
Sentiment in cryptocurrency markets remained subdued, with Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) sliding 2.4% to trade below $96,000.

Analysts revised/maintained the price forecast on Equinix, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EQIX#NASDAQ">EQIX</a>) following the fourth-quarter earnings miss <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/EQIX/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">that was reported on Wednesday</a>.
The company reported funds from operations (FFO) of $7.92, missing the consensus estimate of $8.09, and revenue of $2.26 billion came slightly <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/02/n43674627/equinix-reports-strong-fourth-quarter-and-full-year-2024-results" rel="noreferrer noopener">below the expected $2.27 billion</a>.
The Board of Directors raised the quarterly cash dividend by 10% over the previous quarter to&nbsp;$4.69<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/02/n43674906/equinix-increases-quarterly-dividend-on-its-common-stock-for-10th-consecutive-year-since-reit-conv" rel="noreferrer noopener">&nbsp;per share on its common stock</a>.
Equinix expects first-quarter revenue of $2.191 billion-$2.231 billion, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/earnings">vs. the $2.285 billion estimate</a>.
For 2025, the company sees revenue of $9.033 billion-$9.133 billion, vs. the $9.404 billion estimate and AFFO <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/guidance" rel="noreferrer noopener">per share of $36.69-$37.51</a>.
Oppenheimer analyst Timothy Horan raised the price forecast from $950 to $975 with an Outperform rating.
The analyst writes that headline guidance was weak, as anticipated, but when normalized for FX, Power, and bare metal shutdowns, the results were in line with expectations at 7%-8%.
Although there is a shortfall in capacity, the company is addressing this, and pricing, cabinets, and cross-connections should continue to improve, adds the analyst.
Horan says that the company is well-positioned to provide AI infrastructure and maintains strong pricing power as a key supplier to hyperscalers.
While capacity and supply chain risks remain in the short term, they are likely outweighed by the long-term growth driven by AI and cloud megatrends, adds the analyst.
Goldman Sachs analyst James Schneider maintains the Buy rating, viewing this as a buying opportunity given the accelerating recurring revenue trends and tight supply/demand outlook for 2025.
The analyst writes that he expects the stock to drop following results and guidance that missed Street estimates, though they align with his preview, which reflected headwinds like FX, Equinix Metal, and non-recurring fees.
The company is poised to benefit from rising AI demand, particularly in inference, adds the analyst.
Schneider lowered the 2025-2027 revenue estimates by an average of 2%, with EBITDA and AFFO estimates reduced by approximately 1% to account for slower pricing growth.
JMP Securities analyst Greg P. Miller says that he believes the guidance provides ample room for significant beats and raises in future quarterly reports, as data center momentum picks up and price increases outpace volume growth and the higher churn levels seen in the fourth quarter.
Despite the quarter&#8217;s volatility and the first-quarter guide, Miller sees strong underlying business fundamentals.
The analyst expects Equinix to remain an industry leader in a sector with robust demand momentum.
Miller revised the 2025 AFFO per share estimate to $37.81 from $38.25 and the 2026 estimate to $41.23 from $41.72.
Investors can gain exposure to the stock via&nbsp;Pacer Data &amp; Infrastructure Real Estate ETF&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SRVR#NYSE">SRVR</a>) and&nbsp;Elevation Series Trust SRH REIT Covered Call ETF&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SRHR#NYSE">SRHR</a>).

For the first quarter of 2025, the company expects revenues to range between $2.191 and $2.231 billion, an as-reported decrease of 1 - 3% from the previous quarter, or flat on a normalized and constant-currency basis excluding the quarter-over-quarter impact of the power pass-through. This guidance includes a $28 million step-up from recurring revenues, offset by lower sequential non-recurring revenues related to significant xScale activity in Q4 2024, and a $38 million negative foreign currency impact when compared to the average FX rates in Q4 2024. Adjusted EBITDA is expected to range between $1.011 and $1.051 billion. This guidance includes $25 million of higher seasonal costs and a $20 million negative foreign currency impact when compared to the average FX rates in Q4 2024. Recurring capital expenditures are expected to range between $24 and $47 million.
For the full year of 2025, total revenues are expected to range between $9.033 and $9.133 billion, an as-reported increase of approximately 3 - 4% over the previous year, or a normalized and constant-currency increase of approximately 7 - 8% excluding the year-over-year impact of the power pass-through and Equinix Metal. This guidance includes a $252 million negative foreign currency impact when compared to the prior guidance rates. Adjusted EBITDA is expected to range between $4.386 and $4.466 billion, an adjusted EBITDA margin of 49%. This guidance represents a 190 basis-point year-over-year improvement to adjusted EBITDA margins due to operating leverage and power pass-through and includes a $139 million negative foreign currency impact when compared to prior guidance rates. AFFO is expected to range between $3.606 and $3.686 billion, an as-reported increase of 7 - 10% over the previous year, or a normalized and constant-currency increase of 9 - 12%. AFFO per share is expected to range between $36.69 and $37.51, an as-reported increase of 5 - 7% over the previous year, or a normalized and constant-currency increase of 7 - 9%. Total capital expenditures are expected to range between $3.222 and $3.472 billion. Non-recurring capital expenditures, including xScale-related capital expenditures, are expected to range between $2.985 and $3.215 billion, and recurring capital expenditures are expected to range between $237 and $257 million.
The U.S. dollar exchange rates used for 2025 guidance, taking into consideration the impact of our current foreign currency hedges, have been updated to $1.07 to the Euro, $1.27 to the British Pound, S$1.37 to the U.S. Dollar, ¥157 to the U.S. Dollar, A$1.62 to the U.S. Dollar, HK$7.77 to the U.S. Dollar, R$6.17 to the U.S. Dollar and C$1.44 to the U.S. Dollar. The Q4 2024 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 20%, 10%, 9%, 5%, 4%, 3%, 2% and 2%, 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.
