What matters now
- The price sits above even our optimistic bull case ($290.88). The favourable scenario is already priced in.

Analysis
Equinix, Inc (EQIX) currently trades at $1,053, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $232.70, implying the stock looks roughly 77.9% overvalued today. We read business quality at 57/100 (solid quality), in the Real Estate sector. Bear case: priced above our estimate, the market already discounts strong expectations. Bull case: above-average quality can justify a premium, the entry price still matters most (evidence: high).
Over the trailing twelve months, Equinix, Inc generated revenue of $9.5B at a net margin of 14.9%. Revenue grew 12.1% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 10.1%. Net debt stands at $21.0B. Fundamentals as of Jul 17, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $174.53 (bear case) to $290.88 (bull case); at $1,053, the current price sits above that range. Bear and bull are the same models run on conservative and optimistic assumptions (margins, growth, valuation multiples), so a plausible valuation range, not a price target. The share trades about 6% below its 52-week high and 52% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Real Estate peers we cover trades at -50% fair-value upside, at -78%, EQIX screens richer than that median.
Fair Value models
Each model estimates fair value its own way; the Fair Value above is the evidence-weighted blend. Evidence (0–100) measures how completely this model’s inputs are available: well-fed models carry more weight in the blend. The spread across models is intentional, each one stresses a different value driver; dividend models, for instance, come out structurally low when payout is small.
All 16 models by family
Widest divergence: Growth Earnings ($617.34) versus Economic Profit ($26.47). Highest evidence: Residual Income (76).
