“Our data center starts totaled 350 megawatts between 1 ground-up development at an existing campus and 1 conversion out of our portfolio. Both projects are pre-leased on a long-term basis to leading technology companies with strong investment-grade credit. Customer interest in our powered sites is exceptional with 1.3 gigawatts under LOI and all of our power pipeline in some level of discussion. We ended the quarter with 5.6 gigawatts of energy either secured or in advanced stages which reflects the stabilization of another 150-megawatt facility during the quarter. Simply assuming a power cell format at $3 million per megawatt, our current pipeline could provide well over $15 billion of investment and multiples of that in a turnkey format, creating significant potential for value creation.”

“we are putting our land bank to work across logistics and data centers with $2.1 billion of starts in the quarter, of which $1.3 billion was data center build-to-suits. The depth of customer interest for our data center offerings is significant, and we believe our ability to bring together land, power and development expertise is a key differentiator for our business and positions us to capture a growing share of this opportunity.”

“we are increasing development starts to $4.5 billion to $5.5 billion, this on an own and managed basis with approximately 40% allocated to data center build-to-suits.”

“you're right. It is a new structural driver of logistics real estate demand. It has gone from, say, less than 5% of new leasing a year ago to now 10% of new leasing, and it's an even greater share of the forward-looking pipeline. So there's absolutely upside over the near term as a consequence of this driver. In terms of the breadth and duration, I suppose, number one, we see them signing deals with really healthy term. There is a shift in their own supply chains going from -- I think you could think about it as unbundling manufacturing and distribution to having distribution, a more regionalized and close than production of the data centers. And so there's really solid momentum here, and you're right to describe it as a new structural driver for logistics real estate.”

“our pipeline in the build-to-suit for data centers is very strong. You saw these 2 starts that we announced this quarter. We've been guiding for the year for the first time on what we expect to see. We've got 1.3 gigawatts of deals under LOI, and we're making further progress converting the pipeline I feel really good about what we have going. And I think that accounts for the next 3 years' worth of business and everything we're hearing from our customers is they need the space.”

“on the data center front, I would keep it within the range that you've heard us talk about the last few years, it's 25% to 50% better or higher than what you see in our typical logistics margins.”

“Procurement, our fortress of a balance sheet and ability to get out in front of these long lead items is absolutely a differentiator for us. And what I'd say is just overall, this machine we've built and that we focused on so much over the last 3 years around building these capabilities across this company, whether it be procurement, data center expertise we've built in a big way over the last few years. It's leading to this pipeline that you see and the confidence that we have in putting these numbers out there”

“Every discussion, every deal is different, let's put it that way. And different users have different mindsets at different periods of time. So -- what you see from us, we were heavily focused on the powered shell side of this as you start these discussions. And then we've -- you've seen us deliver some powered shell plus really, we're trying to just work through the customer what they need from us and about how we capitalize this business longer term, maybe you see some more turnkey from us over time”

“we've had very constructive conversations with global investors over the last 2.5 quarters or so. And interest remains very strong. We feel like we're in a very good position with multiple options. And we're just taking the time to evaluate what makes the most sense for us right now. Our current model of building on the balance sheet and then selling these stabilized assets has worked really well the last couple of years, and we see it working quite well going forward.”

“this incredible data center opportunity that Dan is speaking to. And we are looking at the capital needs there and finding the right ways to get to all of those opportunities. actually in a smarter, more capital-efficient format that can yield fees and promotes. So you're seeing that branching now to exhibited in the announcement of these vehicles.”

“From a segment perspective, demand remains strong in essential goods and e-commerce, with increasing momentum among data center suppliers.”

“the structural drivers of growth across logistics, digital infrastructure and energy remain firmly in place.”
