What did DigiCo Infrastructure REIT report?

  • Underlying FY26 EBITDA guidance of $120–125 million
  • Growth capital expenditure expected at $160–180 million for FY26
  • Distributions totalling 12 cents per security (90–100% payout of forecast FFO)
  • Australian Contracted IT Capacity target lifted to 41MW by June 2026
  • Group billed IT capacity forecast to reach at least 85MW by July 2026

What else do investors need to know?

DigiCo's new customer wins span hyperscale, neocloud, enterprise, and government clients, primarily at the SYD1 site but also at Brisbane and Adelaide locations. These additions have led to a significant increase in the company's forward contracted IT capacity.

To meet rising demand, DigiCo is accelerating expansion works at the SYD1 data centre, reshaping the project to deliver more high-density capacity by mid-2026. The company is also preparing to bring forward additional capacity upgrades for FY27.

What did DigiCo Infrastructure REIT management say?

Chief Executive Officer Chris Maher said:



As we noted at our FY25 results, the Australian pipeline, customer demand and scale of deployments has continued to track ahead of expectations at the time of the IPO in December 2024. DigiCo is uniquely positioned to meet surging demand for high-density AI infrastructure – where performance, latency and connectivity are critical. As a result, we are targeting accelerated delivery of the full 88MW SYD1 D&O project earlier than expected, and have reshaped our FY26 works program to deliver additional capacity sooner and capture this growth.

What's next for DigiCo Infrastructure REIT?

DigiCo expects revenue from these new contracts to be recognised in the second half of FY26. The company is targeting a significant uplift in billed IT capacity and group EBITDA by July 2026, with further capacity additions under development.

Management reports strong interest from potential capital partners and notes that SYD1 has achieved "certified strategic" status under the Australian Government hosting certification. DigiCo says it's well placed to advance capital discussions and maintain momentum for growth.
